Summary OF School Affairs.

AS a proposition is being
put to the voters of Greenville
Graded School District, No. Ia.
looking to the issuing of bonds
for the purpose of further in
creasing the scope of usefulness
of said school, l suppose natu-
rally a great many of our prop
erty owners would be inter-
ested in what progress is being
made with the bonds issued pre-
viously, and for their enlighten-
ment | will submit the following
brief summary of the condition
of that part of the schools

On July lst, 1909. the Trus-

sold SIP, 10000 of the 20 year
bonds of the district and erected

The bonds were 20 year bonds.
made subject to the call of the
Board of Trustees, and the
Board has adopted a policy of
calling and cancelling each year
all the bonds they could pay for.
We have paid and cancelled
s29OO.OO up to July /, 1913, and
have a balance on hand due
that fund of $67l.OO.
Just a word of explanation
as to why this should be on
hand is this: Last year all the
railroad taxes were tied up in
litigation and was not settled
until after an interest bearing
period and had to be delayed
until that time. Our taxes due
June 10 for this purpose will
after collection expense are de-
Quoted be approximately $500 90
which will give us S22OO.OO.
The interest due July l will be
$4,000. which deducted from
$22OO.O0 would leave S19OO.OO,
which will enable us to
pay $1,000, 90 more bonds July l
and leave balance enough to
pay interest in January, which
must be reserved because we
collect no more taxes until June
following. This will leave our
present bonds outstanding July
II, 1914, $75OO.OO. At the pres
ent rate, Us cents on the
$4,000 worth of property our
bonds outstanding can be paid
at the rate of. $l10O to $1,000. 90
per year, or in other words the
whole issue would be paid in IL
years, or six years before they
were due. l have gone into
this as carefully as possible in
order that all may know exactly
where we stand and will gladly
give any information personally
that any citizen may ask me on
the subject.

HENRY CASE
Is DISMISSED
Judge Dunn Orders Case Thrown Out
Because Of Improper Filing
Of Information
ENDS A LONG FOUGHT CASE


A decision was rendered last
Friday afternoon by Judge Dunn
OF the Eighth Judicial District
court resulting in the quashing
and dismissal of the case of the
State of Idaho against S. +. Henry
in which the defendant was charged
with purjury.
The effort to bring the defend
ant to trial has been in the courts
for long period and resulted from
evidence given by Henry in trial
of a lawsuit at Standpoint some
two years ago. Henry Riser was
the complaining witness for the
state. The first information against
Henry was thrown out of court on
technical grounds raised by the
defendants lawyers before a trial
was had. The presiding Judge,
ordered that a new information be
filed. The new information was
not filed until this term of court
and H. H. Taylor, attorney for the
defendant argued that the case
should be quashed by reason of
the fact that the information had
not been relied during the same
term of court that the first infor-
nation was filed in.
In rendering his opinion Judge
Dunn states: that no information
was filed at the term of court at
which the same was ordered to be
filed and that no good cause nor
any cause whatever has been
shown why the defendant was not
brought to trial at said term of
court and why said information
was not fled at the term of court
at which the same was ordered.
