TO THE SCHOOL PATRONS.

The Grangeville public schools
will open on Monday, Sept. 4th,
and while the patrons Of the
school are wondering what kind
of school the fourteen teachers
will give, the same IA teachers
are wondering and speculat-
ing on the kind of cooperation,
patience, and forbearance will be
extended to them by the parents
and patrons of the school. Will
we receive your hearty support,
or will you find fault, claiming
to know more about the art of
teaching than those who have
made it a study for years, or will
you be charitable when teacher
fails to meet with your views
Then will you, also, know posi-
lively the facts of the report
which you may spread broadcast
A still better way would be to
think twice in all school gossip
and-then say it to yourself
1t has always been strange
thing to me why parents them
selves hinder and retard teach
er in the work they are paying
to have done. Neither reason
nor common sense can cause suet

MORTON TURNED LOOSE.

A stranger passing under the
name of Ed. Morton dropped in
to Grangeville last week and did
quite stunt of business, with
out placing any more currency in
circulation in the community. He
deposited in one of the local
banks $4500 check for collec-
ton, drawn in his own favor on
an eastern bank, and then pro-
ceeded to do business on the
strength of the deposit slip, later
attempting to get another check
cashed by the purchase of goods.
Things did not come right for
him, however, in his deal with our
business men, and he drew down
his check and hit the pike for
Whitebird, not having COM
mitted any overt act for which
he could be held. Advices being
received at the sheriff's office
that a man was wanted in Wash
ington county for carrying
through pretty much the same
game attempted here, Deputy
Sheriff Thompson later went af-
ter Morton and apprehended him
on the Salmon going south. The
Washington county officer on
his arrival here failed to iden.
tify Morton as the man wanted
in his county, and he was turned
loose.

CITY SCHOOLS
OPEN MONDAY
Splendid Corps of Instructors
Promise of Successful
School Year.

Next Monday the public
school will open with full list
of teachers with one exception,
that OF instructor in music and
art, and from the personnel of
the teaching corps there is every
reason TO believe that the coming
year will be the most successful
in the history of Grangeville, and
II is the right of the patrons to
expect that such will be the case,
founded upon the belief and
claim that we, as a community
are progressing instead of stand
ing still or retrogradlng, and that
the teaching fraternity are doing
likewise. But much depends up
on the attitude the parents of the
community assume toward the
school and teachers and officers,
and the moral support they give
in the enforcement of discipline
and in engendering a spirit of
good feeling, self-respect, re-
pect toward others and pride in
progress and growth along right
lines. Someway the Globe believ
es that the spirit of cooperation
between parents and teachers is
going to more plainly manifested
this year than ever before, and
if so, the result will be the best
school we have ever had, and
that should be the aim of every
parent as well as teacher.
Several changes have taker
place in the list of teachers since
the roll was last published il
the Globe last June. Mrs. Franc
es James will take the place OF
Miss Gertrude Pratt, resigned
Mrs. A. Nj. Baker will teach the
little ones in place of Miss Mary
Graham resigned, and the place
of Miss Ruth Greene, who re
signed after election as instructor
in art and music has not yet beer
filled. The list of teachers a:
finally made up is as follows:
Superintendent-D. +. r. Ric,

GARDEN SPOT
OF THE WORLD
One of the Largest Farmers
in State SO Pronounces
Camas Prairie.

ID. Ii. Wallace. of the firm of
Daniels & Wallace, of Tammany
Hollow near Lewiston, one of the
largest grain and stock raising
firms in the state, was up on the
Camas and Nez Perce Prairies
last week looking over crops,
stock and other general prosper
lty indications which are so pro-
nounced in this section at the
present time. This firm had in
1900 acres of wheat and barley
this season, which yielded them
considerably above 100000 bush
els. The brewing barley they
sold on the recent rising market
at $1.60 per hundred, and the
feed barley at the rise of $1.40.
Mr.. Wallace is not only an ex-
tensive, but is scientific farmer
as well, and employs all of the
most modern ideas and machin-
cry in his agricultural work and
stock raising. In addition to
carrying on extensive operations
in growing grain for the market,
the firm each fall and winter
turns off large numbers of hogs,
usually something like 900 head.
and feed and ship fat cattle. This
record is pretty good evidence
that the gentleman knows some
thing about what a farming and
stock country should be, and
therefore adds greatly to the
weight of the following flatter-
ing comment ON this country
made by Mr.. Wallace to the Lew
iston Tribune reporter upon his
return home. He said:
"The Camas and Nez Perce
Prairies are the garden spot of
the world. l believe / have visit
ed about all of the grain sections
of the west and have never seen
anything that compares with the
prairie country.
"The farmers of that section,
however, are losing hundreds Of
thousands of dollars each year by
not having stock to consume the
feed and waste grain. In the
lower country we are compelled
to summer fallow to retain the
moisture in the soil, while up
there they summer fallow TO kill
the weeds. We have but 13 inch
es of rainfall year, while they
have an average of 26 inches.
The land they are now summer
fallowing should be devoted to
forage crops that would provide
an abundance of feed for large
herds of cattle, sheep, horses and
hogs. Stock should now be run
ming in their stubble fields to
gather up the grain the machines
have missed and the output OF
livestock should be doubled many
times.
1.-The prairie country is destin-
ed to be cut up into small farms,
Forty acres in that country will
eventually make good farm anc
| expect to see that land sell for
5000 an acre within the next 1C
years. When the farms are made
smaller, the farming operations
will become intensified and The
f maximum possible production
will then be attained. When this
is accomplished the output viii
be many times larger than it il
I at the present time.

LOSES LIFE In
SALMON RIVER
Geo. H. Conner, Old Mt.
Marshall Miner, browns
At Waugh's Ferry.

Mr.. Geo. II. Connor was drown
ed in the Salmon river to-day
aug. 23), at IL O'Clock while
taking a boat load of lumber
from the Waugh Ferry up to the
mouth Of Fall creek, about ~
miles above the ferry. w.
Waugh, manager of the Mt.
Marshall mines, and son, Howard
were assisting Mr.. Connor in
the work, and when about half
way, while lineing the boat
around a large rock in a rapid
in the river, Mr.. Waugh and son
pulling the boat and Mr.. Con-
nor pushing the same with a
pike pole, in some way he fell
into the river, and as he was be-
hind large rock and could not
be seen by the men who were
helping, they could not tell
just how he happened to lose his
balance and go into the water.
He was seen after he floated
down stream some 20 feet, he was
swimming and was only few
feet from the shore. After swim
ming a little farther he sank
out of sight, but rose again, and
seemed to be swimming toward
shore but all the time was float
ind down stream. After sinking
and rising several times he sank
for the last time. Although he
was at no time in the main cur
hent yet the water was rough ant
with his heavy clothes on il
seemed that he could not keel
above water.
Mr.. Connor was man about
sixty years old and was held il
high esteem by all who knew
him, having spent some fifteer
years in the Florence, Warner
and Marshall Lake mining dis
tricts.
For the past few years he hac
been connected with Dan Roy il
Bear Greek in the mining busi
ness, where he owns an interes
in several valuable claims. Dur
ing the past spring he had beer
down on the Salmon river, stop
ping for about two months will
the Waugh family at the ferry
and while there he concluded t.
take up claim and build
house at the mouth of Fall creel
on the south side of the river
where he has spent most of tn
summer.
During this time he had beer
getting material, tools, and sup
plies together preparatory I
building a saw mill to cut lumbe
for his house and had just abou
completed this work when tn
accident occurred which cost hil
his life. He was a man that vii
be much missed by those VIII
knew him best.
Sheriff Overman received not
fication of the death of Connor
from w. Waugh at Mt. Marshal
and at once begun making il
vestigation to see if any relative
Of the unfortunate man could b
found. and notified Of the sa
occurrence.
