ing in some of our great cities.
Why?
1t requires only a single sentence
to tell the story-freight rate discrim-
nations.
That rich and. wonderful empire in
the state of Washington, of which
Spokane is the center, had the same
milestone about it's neck, but after a
strenuous fight against the same in
just and unequal determinations in
freight rates, and after continuous
and unceasing struggle lasting more
than twenty years, it has won a sig
nal victory. Until all interior cities
join hands in the same kind of a de-
termined combat we must expect
these impositions to continue, and as
the full measure of our contribution
in the wonderful development that is
going on around and about us We
must be content to act the part as
mere "hewers of wood and drawers Of
water"
If l were occupying the guberna
torial chair 1 would bring to bear the
weight and influence of the office
with our state and interstate railway
commissioners to have these unjust
and Ubiquitous determinations stop
ped.
l would be incessant in using the
influence of the office to promote the
general welfare in every conceivable
way.
But l am reminded that the way Il

EVERYTHING READY
For the Opening Sank Centre
Public Schools
BEGIN NEXT MONDAY
Departments of Agriculture and Do
nestle Science Will be Ad-
ded to the Curriculum


open next Monday, September Il, for
the school year. There, has been a
general shaking up in the corps of
teachers, but three of those who were
here last year being slated to return.
This trio consists of Misses Whiting,
Payden and Claribel Smith.
Two new departments will be added
to the curriculum this year, namely,
agriculture and domestic science.
The normal or teachers training de-
partment, as well as the manual
training department, will be con-
tinued, but both will be on far
more comprehensive scale than here
tofore. From the state will come
$4,000 for the teachers training de-
partment, and LOCO for the depart
ment of agriculture. The sum total:
of cost for the two new departments,
taken along with the cost OF the other
departments of the school, will not be
much of an addition to the expense
of the district, as the amount to be
paid in addition to the amount re-
ceived from the state will be merely
$4,000 year. A comparison of the
rate of taxation for the support of
high schools in the state shows that
the rate for Sank Centre is only 1890
mills. There are 1O7 schools on the
list and of these but fifteen have
lower rate of taxation than does Sank
Centre, some of them running over
thirty mills.
The Board of Education is anxious
to have work on the new high school
building begin as soon as possible.
Architects are working on the plans
and one visited Sank Centre last week.
1t is hoped that plans can be accepted
and contracts let in time to get the
foundation in before winter comes.
Following is the complete list of
teachers in the>schools for the coming
year:
M. ID. Aygarn, superintendent.
JOS, Heraly, manual training.
K. A. Norsen, agriculture.
Mabel Dryden, high school principal.
Miss Maxwell, domestic science.
