Tuesday evening P. L. circuit of
Moscow was visitor in this city for
a few minutes. He was on his re-
turn trip from tour of the county
in interest of the county fair to be
held at Moscow in September. It
is the wish of the Fair committee
that each district in the county hold
a fair in its own town one week
prior to the fair at the county seat.
In so doing the produce placed on
exhibit can be fixed here and the
county fair will send out judges
from the University and Judge the
exhibits and help fix them up for
the county fair. This puts the ex-
hibit in proper condition for display.
This city. IN our mind, should have
a two days fair, thus giving every
one a chance to place their articles.
But if this town has a fair, it should
be one taking in the country sur
rounding the town that would include
q part of the ajoining county. This
should then be placed as district.
This territory has beyond a doubt
the best dope for exhibit of any
part of the state and if the people
will only get the grasses, fruit and
grain ready and deliver them at the
office of J. F. Brown they will be
taken care of. Let everyone put
his shoulder to the wheel and show
that the best place in the world is
the Potlatch country and that Ken
drick is the hub. Now another thing,
one person cannot do all this work
alone as it takes time and money.
1t is a matter that the Commercial
Club should take hold of and if they
do it will be taken care of right for
what the club undertakes is always
done right. Let's get busy and have
an exhibit the state will be proud of.

We have called special election
July 20, from S until 9 P. M. The
question to be voted on at said spe-
cial meeting was whether School
Districts No. 80. SO and SIS should
be united to form a rural high school
district.
Said election to be held in the
three different school houses at the
same date and hour.
This High School is to be central
ly located in these districts and is to
take up the regular high school work
above the eighth grade, including
manual training, domestic science
and agriculture.
Yours truly,
R. E. Metcalf.
The above letter shows what the
people in the rural districts are try
ing and are going to do. And in
our opinion it is one of the greatest
things they have ever done. The
fact that the three districts can 90 in
and form high school and teach
their children without sending them
away from home is great thing in
many ways. The child is at home
at night and the parents know j.-st
what he is doing. and on the other
hand it will cost nothing for school
at home compared with what it will
cost to send the child away to school.
Let every voter in the three districts
get out and vote for the building of
high school at this time.

The way the politicians are shift
ing around now days it looks as
though we might have a land slide
in the republican party before fall.
Now it is Mr.. Taft they want to
put out of the way. Poor fellow, he
is having pipe dreams lately and
don't know just what to do. The
reputation for stealing votes that he
has gained since the convention
seems to be working on his con-
science. The word is now going
out that the candidates in the Re-
publican party are going to ask him
to withdraw from the race, fearing
it will hurt their own chances for e.
lection. If these men are afraid on
account of the split in the party,
they have very slim chances of be-
ing elected anyway. and if this be
the case they had better never be e.
lected for they would make blame
poor officers. Good Republicans
see where the tide is drifting. Stand
for something or nothing and let the
election 60 where it will.
