Free Rural School
Library Service
Books Will Be Circulated To
Country Schools i'm Boxes
Selected Volumes

It is the desire Of the Bryant
Library to make the facilities of
the Bryant Public Library available
to Rural Schools. There is a grow
ing demand for more books to
read, and the books of the rural
school are not adequate at present.
The service planned Is a system
of circulating book boxes to the
rural schools. A box Of books will
be deposited in each school. The
box will contain a collection OF
children's books, selected from the
State Library list. When these
books have been read the book box
win be returned to the Bryant LII
brary. A new box Of books will
then be taken to the schools. This
exchange Of books will continue
throughout the year.
This plan Of rural library SER
vice may be called an experiment,
for this service Is new to Stearns
county. Rural library service has
been successfully worked out In
several other counties in Minneso-
ia, and such library service Is
steadily increasing throughout the
country. This cooperative service
is being extended to rural schools
because there Is an increasing de-
mand for more books In the rural
schools. It will give a good collec-
ton of reading material to the chill
dren. Instead Of 10 or is books to
read, each child will have access to
approximately 200 books each
year.
Library service to rural schools
is a first step toward county II
brary service. If this plan Is sue
cessful, there may be a county II
brary in the future. Letters explain
ing in detail the plan OF service
have been sent to members OF the
rural school boards. Any school
board desiring this service for their
school must notify the librarian by
May is, 1885.

some time before passing 1t, many
motorists did not apply for license

rushed and last minute shoppers
may not get their plates for quite

An Early Boycott.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

The use of the economic boycott by the League of Nations against Italy is hailed new experiment It is new the weapon of organized body of na-
 ons in the effort to enforce international law. But it is very old a method of compelling nation to alter it's policies When the 3 American colonies were suffering from the severe oppressive of King George III, they had only the scantiest means oi resistance Accordingly they turned to the economic boycott the best weapon of an unarmed people.
 The first Continental Congress at Philadelphia was dominated by conservative men, and it rejected the idea of seeking American independence from England But while it petitionng the King to moderate his oppressive measures, it voted favoraby an institution known as the Association" This meant that the l3 colonies, acting independently, to refuse to buy British goods and to refuse likewise to sell their products to England.
 Very much few nations today are unwilling to go along with the Leagues sanctions against Italy, New York was cool to the idea of boycotting England in 1775 Merchants there feared heavy financial losses and Tory sentiment was strong But the mass of people in the province of New York more interested in freedom than in the profits of their merchant class, and eventually aligned New York with the boycott.
 To be sure the coonists found the boycott was not enough to serve their purposes But their action 160 years ago in combining 13 separate provinces to impose economic sanctions England set an interesting precedent Like good many other new ideas the idea of the international economic boycott is really an ancient one.

Alaska's Golden Harvest.
Fairbanks News-Miner.)


 Great news comes from the goldfelds of Alaska cheering news of a banner output this year. Yesterday's dispatches stated the yellow metal shipped from the Territory in October totaed $326S 900 as compared s1919O0o for the month last year.
 November shipments soon will be completed thus rounding out the bulk of the 1895 shipments
 All productive months this year have witnessed decided increases over those of last year
 Under the incentive of the higher price of gold, numerous dredging dragine hydraulic and in- divdual placer operations have been under way this season Hard rock properties are stepping up their yield and the number of producers steadily increases. The new price of gold doubled the width of the paystreak in Alaska. That meant doubling or multi plying the life of gold properties in Alaska. Nothing could hurt Alaska much as setting the price gold back to the old figures of s2067 an ounce Such action would paralyze Alaska, closing down numerous operations and throwing an army of men out of work.
 If the sometime mooted program of increasing the price of gold to $4134 double the old price were put into effect, gold mining in Alaska again would be vastly augmented. However as it is, numerous dredges and other equipment have been installed and Alaska is indeed enjoying golden days.
 Fairbanks as the golden heart of interior Alaska, is the major producer and has many years assured life for her mines Her hard rock as well her placers will engage the attention of many for long years to come.
 Nome has enjoyed a better in gold mining this year than any time since her rush days
 Numerous other placer fields have similar ex- perences to report. The old Kondke is in the same category installing dredges and preparing to open ground long considered too low grade to be worth while
 Such is the epic story of gold throughout the Northand today. With all this golden return today and promise of large return for years to. come Aaskas future glows bright but it will be far brighter if the prospector be provided urgent needs and his number increased throughout the land.
 It will pay Uncle Sam immensely to do all possible to maintain and increase the Alaskan gold yield. While the gold output mounts Alaska will increase her purchases in proportion, give labor new army men and pour vitalizing stream into the lifebood of the nation

 Benefic aspects rule today, accord ing to astrology. The stars encour- age concentration and progress.
 The morning hours are suspicious to women who should employ their best energies in any line of work that engages them. Perils lie in dis satisfaction and discontent.
 Tine stars encourage serious love affairs. Girls may make good inn pressions on persons of opposite sex if they are serious and well-balanced.
 This is a fortunate wedding day although separations due to business or professional engagements may cause temporary unhappiness.
 Theatres and those connected with them should benefit under this con- figuration. A great demand for amusement is presaged among per- sons of every class.
 As the world moves toward un- precedented events that will change the trend of civilization, many peo- ples will demonstrate a reckless quest for pleasure that forbids serious thought
 The evening is subject to the best possible planetary influences and happy results are promised from so- cial contacts. It is a lucky day for attending formal receptions, espec- ially in Washington.

This was Juneau's day of disaster, chronicled The Empire of this date, with a shrill Taku whistling around zach and every corner, the cable broken somewhere-our information is very vague-between Juneau and Seattle. and, to make matters worst, no meat in town. The City of Seattle, which had aboard it months sup ply of Juneau meat, was forced, be- cause of storms and engine .trou- ole. to turn back to Seattle with the neat still in it's hold, and the other boats due into Juneau this week carried no meat, nor would one ar rive with meat within the next six iays. Much search had not yet re- Jealed where the cable break was
 ocated and there seemed no inn mediate chance that anything would ,e done about it. The coldeSt wealth er yet recorded in November accom- panied one of the widest of the Takus, and plate glass windows suc- sumbed to it's strength, and blanks
 ore along the waterfront. Several small boats were unreported. A meat 'ess luncheon was scheduled by the Juneau Women's Club. This, however, lid not serve much to cheer the heart of The Empire editor, who re- marked dolefully he was going to sake an option on the last IS inches of weinerworst left in the meat market.

Meanwhile, with Edward Krause presumably enroute to Juneau aboard the Alameda, Juneau police worked on the clues available here to tie the net of circumstantial evidence tighter around the red- noustached German whose name had grown, in Juneau households, already synonymous with Captain Kidd, "Bluebeard." and other atro- ,ious killers of history. Friends of xrause, until now reluctant to ad- nit anything connecting him with he deeds, were beginning to break down under the accumulated weight 1f evidence, and little by little the mans record of lying, cheating and iefrauding came to light. "A man who gained the confidence of per- sons only to betray them by rob- oery and even murder" he was char acterized by Juneau police, who re- vealed nu m CT ous petty evidence where trust in Krause had been mis- placed.
 Meanwhile, investigation of the supposed murder of William Chris tie led to no special discoveries. Mrs. Christie remained convinced that her husband had been foully mur- dered, and many Gastineau Channel residents were of the opinion his body would be found in the channel, out so far dredging had led to noth- ing.
