Students as Harvesters.

During the War Between the States many, If
not all, of the colleges encouraged students to
volunteer by making the time passed in the
army equivalent to SO much time in the coll

shorter term. is beng done in parts of
North Dakota in order to save the many thou

cause of the recent wet weather there. Word
comes from Fargo that nearly thousand
young men and boys In colleges and high
schools have been given two weeks leave of
absence to work in the harvest fields. In add-
ton to this. many members of the Fargo Com

into the fields, hoping that by their example
they may be able to inspire general co-opera-

Coeur d'Alene, June 5.-Idaho de-
mocracy washed her dirty linen in the
state convention here yesterday when
for two solid hours the leaders in the
respective factions of the party and the
men higher up in the councils of the
party of the various sections stood on
the floor of the convention and fought
over again with the bitterness aud vim
dictiveness the old question as to
whether the former senator from Idaho
Fred T. Dubois, could come back in
Idaho Democratic politics,
The result of the battle was that
Dubois was not only left off the dele
cation to Baltimore but his defeat was
emphasized by the fact that his candi-
date, Champ Clark, was indorsed and
given a solid instructed delegation
under the unit His state leader, q.
b. Steunenberg, was rejected as DEL

on the national delegation Rich, Mil

IS FAST BECOMING
A POPULAR RESORT

Nearly 200 Montpelier people visit
ed the Hot Springs last Sunday and
it is almost needless to say that nine
tsnths or that number went out in
autos. .--------..--------------e'-
1t was the writer's first visit to the
springs since the completion OF the
new hotel and bath house and we can
truly say that we were surprised at
the magnitude of the improvements
and of the superb accommodations
that are now offered to the public.
The hotel is modern hosterly in
all of its appointments. 1t is of the
bungalow type, with wide veranda
around the north and west sides.
The interior is finished in old mission
style. The dining room is in the
southwest corner, and through the
large windows patrons, while feasting
on good things to eat with which the
tables are supplied, can view with
delight the beautiful blue waters of
Bear Lake. Thirty people can
comfortably seated In the dfskSe
room at one time.
The plunge in the bath house is 28
by 81 feet, and the temperature OF the
water ranges from 92 to la degrees.
There are four private bath tubs and
l8 dressing rooms They have $50
bathing suits to rent and ut one time
Sunday all were in use.
The rates at the hotel are $3.50 per
day or $l4. 80 per week, without baths.
Baths, incluqing rental of suits, are
25 cents, but special rate for baths

at the hotel by the week.

action for it realizes that it would
have been q hard job to have se-
cared another man of Mr.. Steven
sons ability for the same money.

pace With the times in all matters
pertaining to the welfare of the pu-
pills of Montpelier, and next year
manuel training and domestic
science will be taught in the
schools. While these branches will
be started on . small scale, the
board hopes that by the following
year, they can be given a more i'm
portsnt place in the work of the
school.
For instructor in domestic
science, the board has secured thu
services of Miss Margaret Stack Of
Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, who come,
highly recommended for thai
branch of che work. Miss Stacl
will also assist In the high schoo
work.

schools the coming year, with Mis-
Laura Schultz Of Appleton, Wis.
