If anyone had desired to lick City
Street Commissioner Samuel or any of
his official family, they should have
fulfilled that desire along about Mon

have submitted without fighting back.

assistants had worked increasingly
throughout the storm in keeping
streets clear and crossings open. They
had cooperated with the fire depart
ment in preventing blockade around
fire hydrants. Mr.. Samuel says he has
never seen harder snow to handle
than that now piled up on the mid
Columbia.

Gently heard committee represent
ing taxpayers, which urged that
school expenses be lowered. A plan
was proposed to cut salaries all
around, to combine some depart
ments, eliminate some instructors
and increase the number of pupils
for grade teachers.
The teachers in their protest to the
board claim that such action would
wreck the present system, which is
acknowledged to be one of the most
efficient in the state. 1t is further
pointed out that Rupert stands nine
teenth in it's wage scale, in a class
OF twenty-five schools of similar size.
The teachers are not asking for
any increase in salaries, but are
united in their determination not to
sign any contracts which call for
reduction. They object also to a
clause in the contracts which would
give the board power to close the
schools at any time If compelled to
DO so for lack of funds.-Salt Lake
