John Booth and Richard Yoe, with
their families, will start for Washing

Hon. G. q. Chadbourne has
presented US with fine, neatly-framed

Let no one be so foolish as to
imagine that the railroad is an
assured thing. This is only a prelimi-
nary survey. Even if a good feasible
route is found it will take big induce
ments to bring railroad here.
Among the down river lumbermen
whom the reporter noticed in town
this week were John W. johnson of

who witnessed the march of the
veterans through the streets of St.

life of the nation was imperiled.

Time For Stiffness.

Mrs. MacLachlan was kind to her
American boarder, but she did not pro-
pose to allow her to overstep the limits
of boarder's privileges, and she made
it very clear. One Sunday the boarder
returning from walk found the win.

wide open, tightly closed.
"Oh, Mrs MacLachlan, don't like my
room to get stuffy," she said when she
went downstairs again. II like plenty

For State Depositories.

The senate passed Senator Robert sons bill which provides for the de-
 posit of the state funds in each coun
 ty where the same are collected
 Proper safeguards are provided in the way of bonds to amply protect the pubic against loss, while at the same time the state will be enabled to realize interest on it's idle capital The awards of deposits are to be made on competitive bids, but in no case at less than per cent interest The governor, attorney general and treasurer will constitute board with authority to make the awards of de. posit. In explaining the measure, the author of it said the purpose in view Is to keep the idle funds of the state distributed as near 10 the people wao pay them as possible. where the mon. ey can be employed in business chan. nels, rather than be kept locked up in vaults of the capitol and out of circulation, as is the case under the present law, while at the same time the state can realize handsome sum fin the way of interest on these funds.

5-Mill State School Levy Fails.

MT. Bellamy's resolution providing for the submission of constitution. al amendment to increase the state tax levy from to mills and reduce the maximum special levy from to 5 mills brought forth a strenuous dis. cussion in the house. The advocates or the resolution pointed out that 1t did not tend to increase the school tax but merely provided for a more equitable distribution of the same over the entire state. On the other hand. the opponents of the measure called attention to the fact that while it would not increase the authorized school tax on the people, yet it would take from their option the levy of the two mills that is proposed to be taken now, by the local districts and placed on the state levy. On roll call the resolution was defeated by an over whelming vote.
