Entertaining Program of Sensible
Talks and Pleasing Music

The Northern Mile Laos County
School Board and Teachers cow en-
tion held in the spacious assembly

urday was a decided success. The
program was splendid one, and
there is no doubt but what much
good will result from the meeting.
That keen interest is taken in mat
tiers pertaining to education in Mile
Laos county is evidenced by the fact
that 40 board members and AZ teach
ers, as we'll as numerous parents at
tended the Wahkon convention.
The forenoon session started at
1870 o'clock with Supt. H. J. Steel
of Wahkon presiding. The Wahkon
Glee club, an excellent musical
organization composed of II girls,
favored those present with a song,
and then Miss Meyers the Onamia
school spoke on "Methods of Teach
ing.' Miss Meyers has met with
marked success as an instructor and
her remarks we're we'll received. An
address by G. C. Swain Of St. Paul;
rural shool commissioner of Mime
sofa, followed. MI. Swain is one Of
the best known educators in the
state, and it was a treat to those
present to hear him. His speech
was chock full of good advice and
contained much of particular inter-
est to members of school boards and
teachers.
At noon dinner was served in the
basement of the school building
and it was indeed a bountiful re-
past. The domestic science class of
the Wahkon schools prepared the
meal, and those who partook of it
cheerfully acknowledge that the young
ladies are adopts in the culinary
art Dinner was served to over 200,
and not one was turned away with
an unappeased appetite.
At 80 p. m. the afternoon session
opened. Prof. Wallace of the Duluth
Normal school delivered an inter-
esting and instructive address along
the line of the connection of rural
schools to Normal schools. Mr. Wal
lace is deloquent and able and be-
ing thoroughly conversant with his
subject, treated it in a mastery
manner. A pleasing selection by the
Wahkon Glee CT ub followed, and it
was roundly applauded G. G. Swain
of St. Paul, then spoke on 'Selection
Of Teachers. - Mr.. Swain did COM
plete justice to the topic. and all pres
ent profited by mis- remarks. A gen.
eral discussion on elbow to Super
wise the Teacher. and How to Treat
the Teacher After She Comes, - was
next. County Superintendent Ewing
led the discussion and gratifying
interest was manifested in this
feature Of the program. Board
members teachers. and others par
ticipated and interesting views were
exchanged.
1t is pleasing to note chat citizens
Of Mile Laos county are thoroughly
alive to the Importance of education,
and the success of the convention
flast Saturday is most gratifying.
County Superintendent Ewing is an
untiring worker for the schools of
the county, and no small share of
the credit for the success of the
meeting is due him. Mile Laos
county has splendid school sys-
tem-one of which all can we'll feel

The Letter e."

Someone has advanced the opinion
that the letter s'E'' is the most un-
fortunate character in the English
alphabet, because it is always out Of
cash, forever in debt, never out of
danger and in hell all the time. But
attention is called to the fact that
"E" is never in war and always in
peace. 1t is the beginning of exis-
tence, the commencement of ease
and the end Of trouble. Without it
there would be no meat. no life,
and no heater. It is the center of
honesty, makes love perfect and
without it there would be no editors
and no news. Staples World.

Shuster could not conceives of any
foreign power attempting the conquest

of the United States. There was an I'M

maintained by Japan, he said, which
would make that nation oppose the

GUTIERREZ NOT
A FREE OFFICER
Is Virtually Prisoner in Mex
leo City; May Be Rump
Convention Choice.

Mexico City, Mex. Jan. S.-Provis-
ionaI president Eulalio Gutierrez is viz
tually prisoner in the national palace
at the will Of Gen. Villa, as a result of
suspicious that Gutierrez is plotting
with the Carranza element Of the Con-
stitutionalist party to Join the Car
rama force now in the field. Gen Lu-
clio BlancO, who is mere, is also under
suspicion in connection with Gutierrez,
Just before Gen. Villas departure
from Mexico City for Juarez, Villa,
minister of war Robes and several
others in Villas confidence held a con-
ference with president Gutierrez and
told him plainly they were convinced
that he was planning to leave the city
cOVertiy to join the delegates to the
convention who fled a few days ago to
San Luis Potosi
They also believed he purposed &C
cepting the provisional presidency at
the hands of a rump convention which
the disaffected delegates intend to hold
at San Luis Potosi in opposition to the
main convention which convened here
January !. These delegates at San
Luis Potosi have issued a manifesto

in which traitor" is among the mildest
of the epithets applied.

recognized as merely a figurehead for
men who made his election at Aguas-
calientes possible, told Villa he was
wholly dissatisfied with the office and
ardently wished to retire. He COM
planned that he had merely nominal au-
thority ana that none OF his orders
were obeyed.
Villa Troops Watch President.
Gen. Villa notified Gutierrez that It
would be inexpedient for the good of
the country for him to abandon his Of
flee and leave the city at present.
Arrangements were made to take
away Gutierrez's personal bodyguard
and replace it with Villas own troops.
Three Presidents for Mexico.
1t appears that Mexico may soon
have three presidents-war minister
Robes, who will likely be elected by
Villa and Zapata; Gutierrez, to be
chosen by the rump convention at San
Luis Potosi, and GFenustiano Carranza,
who chose himself.
Brazilian Minister Protests.
The Brazilian minister has protested
to Villa against the confiscation of
100000 pesos worth of hides belonging
to an American company here. It is
understood that hides to the value of
100000 pesos have been seized for de-
livery to concessionary who will ship
them to the United States for sale.

Mexican FIAT
MONEY LOWER
Villa and Carranza Currency
Goes to Is and 1874; Low
er Price Predicted.

A low record was established Fri
day by all classes of Mexican fiat money
of the various factions. Bankers and
exchange houses were offering around
Is cents Friday, at the same time
expressing the opinion that lower prices
would be reached.
No specific cause FOR the slump IS
given. A factor, however, is the ap-
parent reClIlessness of 6he various
leaders in making new issues. Just
before he left Mexico City, Carranza
authorized an issue of 100000 pesos.
This was to be in addition to the huge
amounts already issued and was not
for the purpose of taking up any pre-
vious issues Villa has also issued
large amounts of paper.
The IS to Is Ia cent offers are
only for Villa, Carranza or Chihuahua
issues and do not include the dozen
odd state and municipal Issues. Du-
range money" for instance, is SELL
ing around cents and many of the
municipal issues, such as the Zacatecas
issue. are not selling as high as 1 cent
on the peso. Federal currency was
quoted here Friday at Is cents.
General disturbed conditions through
out the country, with little prospects
for a betterment, is also given by
money handlers as an important fac
tor in the drop In the money market.
Then, too, FL PaSO has recently been
flooded with the money on account
of the many exchange brokerage Of
fces that have been opened. Prior
to the advent of these brokers there
was a certain demand for the money
to pay Mexican export duties and to
furnish travellers leaving for the in
terror with funds. This demand has
remained about the same, but the sup
ply is much larger.
The prediction was made by exchange
men Friday that the Mexican fiat
money would drop to II cents by the
end of the month and would be quoted
at under 10 cents by spring.

CONCESSIONS MADE SINCE 1876
ARE REVOKED BY CARRANZA

All land, timber oil. mineral and
water concessions, given between De-
cember 1, 1876 and January z, 1915,
are to be Cancelled, according to a
decree issued Thursday by Carranza at
Neracruz, according to advices re-
ceived here by Carrancistas. The de-
cree annuls all of the concessions so
far as regards old community lands,
regarded as unjusUly and unlaWfully
taken from their ignorant owners,
from poems or from indians. This prac-
tically covers all the large concessions
in Mexico.
When the lands are recovered they
viii be sold to bonafide settlers on
small annual payments. Those having
concessions to exploit mineral and oil
resources will be required to comply
with the new regulations and either
show clear title or contribute ade-
quately by taxation for a continuance
OF their privileges. This decree will
seriously affect the Cowdry and other
large oil concessions, the advices from
