School Elections Held Saturday

Elections of trustees took place in
all the rural school districts of the
county Saturday with the exception of
District No. IL where no patron came
to the polls.
A peculiar situation has arisen in
the Meadow Creek school district. Ii
seems that many of the patrons of the
school do not reside in the district in
which they have voted for years and
that the schoolhouse is located in ter
rltory embraced by the Curley Creek
school district. The county commits
sioners will be asked to extend the
boundaries of the Meadow Creek dis
trict south to include the schooIhouse
and citizens who are patrons Of the
school. At the election Saturday it
was held that number of citizens
were not entitled to vote by reason of
the fact that they were not residents
OF the district, although they have
voted in the district for several years.
on the assumption that they were
actually qualified voters.

Standpoint Wants 1922 Convention

The city of Standpoint has made a
bid for the Republican state nominat-
ing convention, which is to be held
August %. and the plan, a unique one,
is outlined in personal letter re-
ceived by state official Thursday,
says the Boise Statesman.
Prominent republicans of Bonner
county were responsible for the let
ter, in which is outlined sort of
'lumberjack convention" They pro-
pose to erect a large "wigwam" on the
shore of Lake Pend d'Oreille. where
the delegates could hold their meet
ings, as well as a FLOCK" of smaller
tents in which the "nominators" could
take on daily substance and acquire
nightly rest from the tolls of the day.
Argument for Standpoint as the logi-
cal place for the convention is put
forth in the letter, as follows:
About the time the convention is
in session it will be hot down south
and hot in Lewiston, which is the only
town north that would probably feel
that it could ask for It. Coeur d'Alene
and Wallace have both had delegate
conventions and Moscow once had a
nominating convention. Lewiston had
a delegate convention that memorable
year that Roosevelt and Taft didn't
speak on their way through"
Bonner county republicans believe
that, taking it all in ALL" they are
entitled to the convention this year
by virtue of never having had any
KIND OF a convention at that place.
