Increase Teachers Salaries.

/ At meeting of the board OF
trustees of the Nezperce Public
Schools last Monday evening the
matter Of advancing the salaries
Of the entire faculty was consid-
cred at some length, and the de-
cision was reached to give each
teacher an increase in the form of
a bonus at the end Of the school
year equivalent to 10 per cent of
his or her salary.
When the contracts were made
with the teachers last summer the
salaries proposed and accepted
were based upon general cost con-
ditions at that time, but the con-
tinued upward tendency Of ex-
penses made an increase practi-
cally imperative. Most neighbor
communities with schools as large
as ours have made the same move
in behalf of their teachers.

THE COAL STRIKE Is OFT.

A bulletin received here this
morning brought the good news
that the officers of the miners
union had agreed to accept the
terms Of the government 3 pro-
posal of a IA per cent wage in
crease for the miners, and had
ordered the 100000 miners they
represent, to resume work Fri
day morning. The order win be
carried out by the men, and it is
stated the shipment of coal from
the mines will be commenced not
later than Monday morning.
At the Indianapolis conference,
where this agreement was reached
yesterday, it was also announced
that President Wilson, had also
submitted the proposition of the
appointment of a commission
which would go into all the de-
tails Of the coal controversy, and
it was agreed that the findings
and rulings of this commission
should stand as the law in fixing
the future price of mine labor and
the mine s product.

Idaho County After the I. w. WIS

All highway camps in Idaho
county will be cleared Of men,
bers Of the /. w. w. and all mem
bers Of this organization will be
arrested and prosecuted, is the
latest proclamation by the county
officers upon whom is devolved
the duty of law enforcement, said
a Grangeville dispatch in last
Saturdays Lewiston Tribune.
Warrants for the arrest of four
men were issued today and an Of
ficer will be sent to the highway
camps on Salmon river to take the
men into custody. The men to be
arrested are: Carl Lund, Ed Elm
arson, Gust Sandeen and Gust
Haroldson.
The arrest of these men is the
result of protests made because
of twelve members Of the /. w.
w. being discharged last week af-
ter they had promised to tear up
their cards and refrain from fur
ther Identification with the or
ganization. The men claimed
they had been compelled to join
the organization at coast camps
or lose their positions and that
they had never given the organi-
zation further consideration or
support.
It seems this action has aroused
considerable feeling and a de-
mand has been made that further
attention be given the matter.
This has resulted in warrants be-
ing secured for four of the men
who were included in the number
first arrested and Investigated,
and it is proposed to bring those
men to Grangeville and have their
cases disposed of by the courts.

M. J. Young Victim of Apoplexy.

M. j. Young, a pioneer citizen
of this vicinity, succumbed to a
stroke of apoplexy while purchas-
ing a ticket for Seattle at the
Vollmer depot last Friday morn
ing. He had been in failing health
for the past three months and had
just terminated a visit with his
children in this community and
was on his wav to Seattle, where
it was hoped the change in eli
mate would prove beneficial.
His remains were taken to Lew
iston where the funeral was con-
Quoted from the Vassar chapel at
IL 80 Sunday, and he was laid to
rest in the Lewiston cemetery be-
side his wife, who had proceeded
him to the grave two years ago.
The deceased was born in Penn
sylvania rs years ago and came
west in 1884, locating in Oregon.
He moved thence to Washington,
where he resided until 13' years
ago, when he located on q farm
southwest of this city, and here he
resided until short time after his
wife's death. He moved to
Charleston and has since made his
home there excepting an occas-
ional visit to his children on the
prairie. These are, r. M. Young
and Mrs. John Blenders. Besides
these, a daughter, Mrs. Geo. B.
Green, of Portland, and son,
w. L. Young, of Seattle, survive
him.
Mr.. Young was good citizen
and was held in highest esteem
by our people. His life had been
well spent, as his ripe age testi-
fies. He rests in peace in that
home not made with hands,
eternal in the heavens.

Raise Subscription to So.

The Nezperce Herald and the
lilo Register, in their last week s
issue, carried announcements stat
ing that on and after JAN ! their
subscription prices will be raised
to 50 a year. They will also in
crease their advertising rates. The
high price of paper coupled with
advancing price Of labor has fore
ed them to advance their sub
scription and advertising rates.
The raise in prices by these two
papers is a just one, they being
both creditable sheets to their
communities and if they are not
worth So per year, the price that
will be asked after Jan. l, they
are not worth a cent. Two dol
lars a year by no means pays for
the paper and work involved in
getting the publication to its
readers every week.-Cottonwood
Chronicle.

Elton Clair, the four-year-old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. A. R. liPe,
of this city, died Friday morning
Dec. 5, after an lllness of about
IL hours Of membraneous Group.
r'hc funeral WIS conducted at
th' Brethren chufc'l at IL q. m,
Sunday by Elder Flory, Of Mos
COW, and many were in attend
ance as q tribute Of respect to the
little lad and through sympathy
with the sorely stricken family.
The baby remains were consigned
by loving hands to their final
earthly bed in the Nezperce cenl-
etery.
The whole community was sad
dened when the news came of this
good family's loss, the shock Of
which was the more distressing
through its suddenness. The little
fellow had been in normal good
health and spirits before the fatal
malady attacked him.
He was the baby Of family Of
three children and was the first
of this household to be called to
his Maker.
The sympathy of all goes out to
those to whom he was nearest and
dearest.

| Boise, Idaho, Dec. SO. V.
Allen, former state treasurer who
confessed the embezzlement of
sums from the state treasury tot
aling $4,000 during his term Of
office and was sentenced October
| %, 1914, to serve from five to ten
years in the state penintentiary,
was released from the pen on pa
role today by the state pardon
board. The adtion of the board
was unanimous. Allen has repeat
edly implored state pardon
boards to grant him an absolute
pardon.
The present board refused to
give him unconditional freedom,
and today released him to the GUS
tody of his brother, H. A. Allen,
Of Twin Falls under the usual
parole requirements that he make
regular reports as to his conduct
and his whereabouts.
Although Allen has been in the
penitentiary since October %,
1914, and has actually served but
five years and a little more than a
month, his exceptional record un-
der the state laws entities him to
credit for having served Z years
and 8 months.
The state recovered the entire
amount of Aliens peculations,
which, with interest, totaled near
ly $145,000. The recovery. was
made through his bonding COM
pany.
Allen for the last year has been
prisoner manager of the HURT
ranch at Nampa, which was leas-
ed by the state.

Twenty-Five Below.

Nezperce has weather, just the
same as any other we'll ordered
town, but she also has a govern,
ment equipment and observer to
keep tab on the sort of weather
she is getting. This is not the
case in every town, and even
many of those which are thus fa-
vored find the equipment indif-
ferently looked after. It's diff
ferent here. The local records
have been faithfully and careful
ly kept since the station was es-
tablished, some slsven years ago,
and last Monday night, December
8, at IL o'clock, saw the tempera-
ture lower than it had ever been
before-22 degrees below zero.
The lowest previous record was
in January, 1918, when 81 below
was reached.
The present low stage has also
been ord-breaker for dura-
ton. With about q foot of snow
on the ground, the registration
has been below the zero point Of
tener within the past ten days
than for the same period at any
former time, except in 191 when
the extreme temperature was not
sa low as now.
On the night of Dec. a regis
tration of 12 below was made and
this low figure was repeated at
5 p. m. on the following day, with
a rising temperature through the
night, and 5 above was reached
at Z O'Clock the morning Of the
3rd. Since then zero and below
has been the prevailing condition,
until the extreme of last Monday
night.
Following a southeasterly wind
Tuesday, when a Chinook was in
prospect, one of the heaviest snow
storms and billiards. the country
hah known swooped down on us
Wednesday morning and continu-
ed fur1QuSly throughout the Gay.
The strong north wind swept
the snow into great drifts and
made overland travel exceedingly
difficult and in ulaces impossible.
In looking over the record for
the past II years, we have taken
and give below the dates and
thermometer readings Of the cold
est days in December of each year
and the dates and readings of zero
weather in January, February
and March of each year since the
establishment of the local bureau,
which, by the way, is the only
government station now in opera
ton on either Nez Perez or Cam
oe prai1.ia
