WHEAT NOW BELOW
GOVERNMENT PRICE
SPECULATORS FORCE CHICAGO
WHEAT BELOW PRICE GUAR
ANTEED BY GOVERNMENT

CHICAGO, Friday Night (By A.
IP)-For the first time since the end
ing of government control of the wheat
market, wheat has been sold in Chi
cago at less than 1928 a bushel the
price guaranteed by congress, Decem-
Der went as low as 1921, an overnight
tumble of 12A cents.
Absence of buying demand was the
feature in today's operations. A gen
orally accepted explanation of the
apparent reluctance of purchasers
was strained financial conditions, no.
tably weakness Of foreign exchange
Corn, oats and provisions declined
in sympathy with wheat but kept
within normal limits. The amount
of business in the feed grains exceed
ed by many times the total transac-
tions in wheat Dealings in future
deliveries of wheat appear to be in
creasing little daily but are still far
below an old-time average.

DEAN THOMSON INSPECTS
IDAHO COUNTY MINES

Dean Francis A. Thomson of the
school of mines at the University cf
Idaho, and S. M. Ballard, mining
man of Placerville, Idaho, returned
Tuesday from weeks tour of in
spection of mining properties in the
Buffalo Hump section. Both these
gentlemen were guests at the regular
Wednesday luncheon of the CONNER
cial club and made brief talks on the
mining situation as they found it in
the Hump. They gave very flattering
reports of certain properties and ad-
vocated the improvement of the roads
so that investors could get into the
district. The statement was advanced
that number of properties could op-
crate the year around if auto truck
roads were established. The ore in
the Hump, great deal Of which car
ries high values, could be reduced to
concentrates and then trucked to the
railroad during the summer months
when the road would be dry.
There is logic in the statement,
and if the mines in the interior of this
county are ever opened up this meth
cd will probably have to be followed.

HALF OF MOSCOW'S
VOTERS REGISTERED
FULLY so PER CENT WILL NOT
VOTE IN PRIMARY ELECTION
NEXT TUESDAY

| But little more than half of the yOt-
| ers of Moscow had registered at noon
today, the last day for registration be.
| fore the primary election which will
be held next Tuesday, August g. Mos
COW has five precincts, each of which
extends some distance into the coun-
try and has total of about 24OO vot-
ers, according to the vote cast in No
vember, 1918. Up to noon today but
1928 had registered A few more were
expected to register in the afternoon
but noon was the latest date at which
figures could be obtained The reg
istration was heavier today than it
has been any day since the campaign
for registration started.
Southwest Moscow, in which Mrs. c..
B. Rogers is registration officer, had
175 registered out Of total of about
500. North Moscow, with a voting
strength of 25O, had 12S registered
Southeast Moscow precinct, in which
Mrs. Roy Holman is registration Of
ficer, led all others, with 384 register
ed out OF total of little more than
SO. West Moscow precinct, of which
Judge w. G.. Barge is registration Of
ficer, had 276 out of an estimated to-
tai of 500 while East Moscow, of which
Mrs. Frost is registration officer,
had 260 at noon. There are believed
to be between 900 and 700 voters in
this precinct
These precincts extend into the
country as much as six miles, and all
concentrate in MOSCOW, four precincts
converging at the corner of Main and
Third streets. AS a rule more city
than country folks have registered.
After the registration offices closed
this evening there were no chance of
voters registering and those who did
not register cannot vote next Tuesday.
AS there are no contests in either the
republican or democratic primary e1c-
tions and the nonpartizans will file
their ticket by petition, there was very
little incentive to register for the
primary election and farmers were too
busy to come to town to register.
The registration books will be re-
opened Immediately after the primary
next Tuesday and will be open
until few days prior to the election
in November

the cannery at Juliaetta. The vari-
cites were Bings and Lamberts.
The cannery there has had good
run on cherries and will continue the
cherry season for about two weeks
more.

MOSCOW SCHOOLS
OPEN SEPTEMBER s
SOME VACANCIES EXIST IN
TEACHING STAFF BUT ALL
WILL BE SUPPLIED

| No fear of a shortage of teachers
in the Moscow schools is expressed by
T. R. Shank, superintendent of city
schools, who has been diligently
working on the task of securing a
full corps of teachers for the term
which begins on Monday, September
Is (labor day. for term of nine
months. Superintendent Shank has
been diligently working on the prob
lem which has confronted the board
and is securing teachers from all Sec
tions of the United States, two COM
ing from Virginia. To the Star-Mir-
ror Superintendent Shank gave the
following statement regarding the
school:
"The school board has decided upon
the first Monday in September as the
date for the opening of the public
schools. AS this is legal holiday,
there will be only one session on that
day for the purpose of organization.
The high school offices will be open
during the preceding week in order
that pupils may register and have the
opportunity to talk over their courses
with the principal This will save
much time when the schools open and
make it possible to begin the work of
the year promptly.
"There exists several vacancies in
the high school faculty, but the au-
thorities hope to fill them during the
coming weeks with strong teachers.
There are many applicants and no
anxiety exists now as to being able
to have full quota of teachers in the
schools. 1t has been found necessary
this year to increase salaries over
last year, but this is true in every
part of the country.
'On the fourth of October, the an
nual teachers institute will convent
in this city, 1t is made up of the
following counties: Latah, Nez Perce,
Lewis, Idaho, and Clearwater in Ida
no and Asotin of Washington. There
will be about seven hundred teachers
in attendance This institute has
been meeting in Lewiston and it is
earnestly desired that Moscow do all
in its power to make the stay of the
teachers pleasant in order that we
may feel justified in inviting them
here again. 1t will mean much to the
city financially and in many other
ways. The county superintendent In
with the city superin
tendent will have the arrangements
in charge and the cooperation of the
citizens is confidently expected to as
sist them in this undertaking.
