After the business session, the
meeting was adjourned for lunch.
The lunch was furnished by the Hope

ATTORNEY GENERAL TO BRING
SUIT AGAINST SCHOOL BOARD
He Says Supplementary Text Books
Must BE Abandoned.

What, the Abilene school board
to be tried in court? Yes-accord-
ing to the statement published in %
Topeka paper yesterday, Attorney
General Dawson is going to bring
suit against the school boards of
81 Kansas towns, because the schools
of those towns use supplemental text
books. Abilene is included In the
list.
II have heard nothing of the
suit" said superintendent w. A.
Stacey today. "the daily papers yes
terdH contained list of some
twenty towns against whose boards
OF education the state attorney gen.
eral is said to be intending to begin
suit to compel them to abandon the
use OF supplementary text books in
the schools. The statement seems
to indicate that the state attorney
general is putting the boards OF edu-
cation in the various towns to un-
necessary trouble, Inasmuch as there
Is already one suit of this form In
stitutsd against the board OF edu-
cation IN Lawrence and the date is
SET for trial. Unless the state at
torney general desires to harass the
boards this suit might be regarded
as a test case to determine the ju-
diciaa Interpretation Of the law aud
all parties should certainly be will
ing to abide by the result II the
decision OF the court T. to the ef-
feet that supplementary books can
not legally be used in the schools,
there is not the slightest doubt that
the boards Of education will at once
take them out.
There Is not the slightest doubt 1
that the custom Of using supple
mentary hooks is rather widespread |

there is but one series Of books

HOPE FARMERS INSTITUTE
WAS A REAL HUMMER.
Good Roads, Crops and Fine Lunch
Were Features.

Three years ago farmers insti-
tute was established at Hope. In
1910 the second annual meeting OF
this new organization was held and
only 10 persons were present. What
could be done to create larger
interest in the work of the insti-
tute confronted the Hope merchants.
Is It not for the benefit Of the farm
er that these Institutes Rre held? At
such a gathering each farmer could
give his individual ideas on farming
and questions in general could be
discussed. Yes, 1t would be good
thing. That is what the merchants
Of Hope decided and they resolved
that the farmers institute for 1911
should be a grand success.
j. s. Meek and A. A. Peterson
volunteered to manage the meeting.
Bills were widely distributed an
nouncing the approaching institute.
The Hope band was secured to fur
nish the music, money was solicited
for a free lunch, the assistant state
road engineer and a professor from
the state agricultural school were Sc
cured to give lectures. What was
the result? Instead of Is persons
responding to the invitstion. over
200 farmers took holiday last FRI
day and attended the farmers insti-
tute
Al $3.50 O'Clock in the morning
the farmers we're told Row to judge
dairy cows by G s. Hine. Of the
state agricultural college.
Then the farmers gathered at the
Hone auditorium and heard a fine

Use. lnasmuch as the custom has
existed by common consent for many
years, and has apparently been sane
toned by the need of the schools,
It would seem that the situation
should call for considerable rather
than precipitate action"

results-the farmers institute was

DODGE RETAINS
THE CHAMPIONSHIP

Tom Dodge is still the welterweight
champion of the Pacific coast, having
won the match Saturday evening from
Alex Jenshn in two straight falls.
The attendance was rather small,
said to have been barely enough to pay
expenses. This was perhaps due to the
fact that heretofore there has been
more or less faking' connected with
Winnemucca sporting events.
The main event If the evening was
preceded by two good boxing prelim-
inaries, the first between Luther Le-
Baron and Joe Robinson and the sec
ond by f. Madden and w. G. Cook.
Dodge left Sunday for Salt Lake
City, where he will arrange match
with Yokel Utah champion wrestler,
for October Is.
Stidd & Wendell, the new managers
of the Nixon, promise other sporting
events during the winter and give
their personal guarantee that all will
be on the square.

a splendid cast that would be account
ed today, even without the aid of
Herne and the three "well known
players who were also in the "Sag
Harbbor' aggregation.
OF these, Mr.. Herne's two daugh-
ters have become great favorites with
the theatre-going public. William
Hodges five seasons as "The Man
From Home' have made him one of
the most popular stars in America.
Young Booth and Barrymore are both
well-k known leading men, and Frank
Monroe, who after Herne's death, as
sumed the authors role in "Sag Har-
bor," has lately added greatly to his
reputation as Dayle, the detective, in
Alias Jimmy Valentine.'
Monroe is still playing his original
part in the Paul Armstrong play with
the company, headed by II. b, War
ner, that comes to the Nixon next
Friday night. Monroe's characterize
tion of Doyle in "Alias Jimmy Val
entine' scored so heavily that on the
opening night of that successful play
in New York he signed an indefinite
contract with Liebler & Co., by which
he is to receive salary automatically
increasing with each additional year
that he consents to play the part.
The silver state. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1909-1925, 1911-09-26

The late James A. Herne was consid-
cred by many, in his day, the leading
American dramatist He was an ex-
pert teehnician, and founded type
of drama, the rural play, that has been
immensely popular. He wrote, among
others, "Shore Acres and "Sag Har-
bor' Besides he was an actor of great
skill and talents, playing the leading
roles in the rgeat majority OF his own
plays.
His service to the American stage did
not end with this, however. Many of
the most efficient actors now on the
stage owe their careers to his encour-
agement and training. At the time
"Sag Harboro was first produced
there were but three actors appearing
in his support who had any sort of a
reputation. These were old Mrs. Sol
Smith, Forrest Robinson and Marion
Abbott. The rest were unknowns,' -
who had been selected with infinite
care from the ranks of the struggling
beginners and their performance, in
every case, reflected great credit upon
the Judgment of the actor playwright
Among the unknowns" of that
cast were William Hodge, Frank Mon
roe, Lineol Barrymore, Sydney Booth,
Chrystal Herne and Julie Herne. What

HOUSES BUILT WITH
POURED CONCRETE

Edison s theory OF building a con
crete house by the pouring method has
been practically realized by Milton d..
Morrell, an architect of Washington,
ID. c. The system of mods he has de-
vised were first used at Virginia High
lands, suburb of Washington, and
there is now quite colony of poured
houses, all of which were readily sold
before completion.
An idea of the cost of building a
concrete house by the pouring method
can be gained by the results at Vir-
ginia Highlands Here a seven-room,
two-story, freproof house. 30x30 feet.
with side porches extending eight
feet; at each end, front terrace, sleep
ing balconies and roof garden, com
pletely finished with hardwood floors,
sells at $4,000, which price is said to
leave a fair margin of profit. A six
room house, bathroom, balcony for out
door sleeping, and roof garden, can be
built in groups for less than $4,000
each. These houses represent almost
perfect sanitation, and many are
built so that every room can be flush
ed out with a hose. Many of the fix
lures, such as bathtubs, sinks, settees,
window boxes, etc, are also made of
concrete.
The equipment for erecting these
consists of eight parts, all wedged to-
gether in such manner that they can
be erected or taken down with a ham
rher. The unit plates are two feet
square, and are set up in form of a
trough extending entirely around the
house to be built. This is filed with
concrete. The next day a set of forms
are put on top of the first set, and
these are filed in the same manner.
The third day a swing strap is attach
ed to the side flanges of each plate,
one end of the swing strap to the up
per and the other end to the lower tier,
the wedges holding the plates at top
and bottom tare then knocked out and
the lower tier of plates is swung up
and wedged on top again. The plates
are held rigid and apart by a spacing
pipe through which runs steel strap
an eighth of an inch thick and an inch
wide. This has holes in it through
which the wedges are driven AGAINST
the plates, and these hold the plates as
solid as box girder. Houses of most
any design can be built with one set of
plates, and at the same time the walls
can be made any thickness.-New
York Evening Post.

NATIONAL WOOLGROWERS
TO MEET IN DECEMBER

To be able to take defensive action
in the face of any adverse legislation
affecting the wool schedule, the Ma
tional Wool Growers association will
hold its annual convention this year in
December, instead of January.
The dates, December IA, Is and 16,
were announced yesterday in letter
to C. b. Stewart, secretary of the
Utah Wool Growers association. This
will give the association ample time
to fortify itself against action by the
next congress on the tariff on wool.
The convention this year will be
held in Omaha, which won the honor
after a hard fight at the last conven-
tion. 1t has been customary for many
years to meet in January, that being
the month best adapted to the con
venience of the wool growers. Writ
ing to the Utah association, S w. Me-
Clure, secretary of the national body,
says:
"In view of the fact that congress
will be in session early in December,
and the report of the tariff board will
be in the hands of the president and
congress at that time, it seems of vital
Importance that our meeting be held
sufficiently early TO enable us to take
fitting action before the enactment of
legislation affecting our schedule
should be consummated. -
