Hope for Reappointment.

Many people in Washington county.
which Of course does not include the
bootleg element, hope the Rogers girls
will. be reappointed. This is especially
true of women who favor the suffraget
movement. for they see in the Rogers
girls req leaders. who have the deter
imitation of a man and will not shrink
a duty. even though there Is danger of
losing their lives. The Rogers girls
are the true types of the western
girl; rather striking looking and show
the Indian blood. which they inherited
from their mothers side. They are
very practical and are as much at
home entertaining a houseful Of guests
as they would be following a corr list
er or taking a :hot at a jackrabbit.s
Both are good marksmen and can
handle a rifle with the skill Of q SOL
der. These young women live with
their parents in q comfortable home
near Dewey. Okla. They have many
suitors. Dpt their greatest ambition in
life. in the past, a been to suppress
the liquor traffic in eastern Oklahoma.

COUNTY HIGH

The proposition to establish . free
county high school should be given
careful consideration by the residents
OF Chouteau county. The matter will
be submitted to popular vote at an
election to be held June q, and it is
desired that every qualified elector
shall express his opinion.
A new law enacted by the Thirteenth
assembly, provides that any county in
Montana may establish a high school
for the purpose of %affording better
educational facilities for pupils more
advanced than those attending the
elementary schools. The new law
makes several changes in the regula.
tions that have heretofore obtained,
and remove features that appeared
to work q hardship upon some of the
districts. Under the old law, for In
stance, q school district in which q
high school course was being taught
was compelled to assist in maintain.
ing a county high school-these con.
dittons imposing an unjust financial
burden upon such q district. In the
law, however, it 10 provided that q
school district that has q high schoo.
department. shall receive its share O.
the taxes collected for county high
school purposes.
1t is scarcely necessary to urge upor
the residents of Chouteau county thu
desirsbility to giving their children
the best educational advantages tina
can be provided. The Importance o
this matter was appreciated by resi-
dents of the Fort Benton district sew

not be raised very high.
