TO SCHOOL PATRONS

Boise, March 2O,-To all county
superintendent of schools-My at
tention has been called to seeming
conflict in the statutes of this State
having to do with the raising of
money for special school purposes.
Chapter SO of Session Laws 1913
page 363, sub-head (c) provides
that an annual meeting of electors
of the school districts shall be held
on the third Monday in April, and
that at this meeting a special school
tax of not to succeed five mills on
each dollar of taxable property may
be voted for the ensuing year.
Sub-head (c) Section 7. Chapter
lis. found on page 43o. Session
Laws 1913, referring to the same
meeting of electors of the school
districts, provides that a special
school tax of not to exceed fifteen
mills on the dollar may be levied for
school purposes. but provides fur
Their that the amount to be raised
shall be determined by a vote on
the proposal TO raise a specified
amount of money for specified pur-
poses rather than to vote upon the
levy which shall actually be made.
In view of this seeming conflict in
the Statutes I suggest that great
saving of taxes may be effected
during the coming year without a
detriment to the school if following
plans can be followed throughout
the state. I desire that each County
Superintendent of schools in the
state shall Immediately, on the re.
ceipt of this letter, supply the schoo
trustees of each district in his or hel
county with the following informa
ton:
(a) An itemized statement of thu
district expenditures during the pre-
vious year insofar as this can be de.
termined.
CD The number of schools in tn,
district.
| (c) The amount of money in tn,
treasury to the credit of the distric
for the coming school year.
CD The estimated amount to b.
received from the state apportion
ment.

IN THINKING OF THE PAST

The candidacy of Representative
Burton L. French for United States
Senator from Idaho brings wildly
to the minds of many of the old
timers in and about Kendrick, the
struggle that Mr.. French has had in
pushing his way to the front. They
remember the log house in which
he lived with his people east OF
Kendrick in the Gold Hill section
and they recall him as boy and
young man doing the ordinary work
of the farm, clearing lands, working
on the road, etc., and they are gen.
timely in sympathy with his candid
acy for Senator.
tits recalled that before the road
was completed between Kendrick and
Gold Hill, before the bridges across
the Potlatch and Cedar Creek had
been built, the pillow that was used
by Mr.. French's father in breaking
his land that he was clearing, was
hauled across the Potlatch River
in the spring of the year when the
water was high, tied fast to LOG
with one end of the rope in the
hands of father French and the
other in the hands of son Burton.
Incidents of this kind and Mr..
French's hearty participation in the
pioneer work of developing new
country have drawn him close to the
hearts of the people and they fee
that his success is very largely
theirs.

KENDRICK
WORK SHOWS UP WELL

In looking over conditions of the
county we find that iE the past three
years the present board of County
Commissioners have been doing
great deal of good work to better
the conditions of the roads as well
as other matters for the betterment
of the people as well as doing these
things at the least expense that they
could be obtained. The chairmen
John L. Woody is confering with
the different road overseers of the
different districts of his district and
lending every effort to help them
make their roads up to what they
should be. Several changes in roads
and building of bridges have come
up and where they have been
necessary they have been made
right. Mr.. Woody has served the
county in the capacity of Commissi-
oner for the past two terms and his
work has been credit to him and
his efforts have been a saving to the
county. Mr.. Woody has been
spoken of as a candidate for sheriff
but he positively refuses to run for
that office, but it is possible that he
may run for the reelection to sue
coed himself.
In his district material changes have
been made for the convenience of
the people of the county and the
changes have been brought about
by this man who has the interests
of the people at heart.

Chicago. April 14.-Corn crowd is

market and new low prices some time
this week. Chicago sales OF corn yes
terday were discouraging at $4,000 and

Argentina domination. Gossip now

corn longs sold heavily Monday. Ar
gentina continues TO offer freely on
basis Of 63 cents C. /. F. New York for
later months. Trade is passing into
the July and September corn months.
Fair and favorable weather for farm
work prevailed over the United States
yesterday. Our wheat reports indi-
cate that up TO April 10 the condition
of winter wheat at 90 TO 81. United
States wheat exports for April will evil
IDENTIFY be very nominal at about $780,
600. The customary April stories of
a final bull turn in May wheat are in
circulation.
While oats and corn will evidently
make new low points, there are signs
of congestion on any further sag. Tone
of southwest markets and volume of
early selling will control today. Tech
the bull side of corn seems to
be under subsection of Argentine hap
penings. Business news in the finan-
cial papers has a heavy tone. Steel
