Music
R P Talt, the pioneer music teacher
of Grande Ronde Valley, is still in the
ring. During my vacation I made it
my business as well as pleasure to at
tend concerts, operas, and ' In fact
everything In my line of buslnens and
I found that I as a teacher, and in
terpreter of muaio am atlil in the front
rank. Pupils who do not wish the full
conservatory course may take the pop
ular pisco course. This places the
pupil in position to play the popular
munio of the day, Church and Sunday
School music
The Violin popular course places the
pupil In position to play all kinds of
dance muaio as well aa light overtures.
Quite a number of musicians who have
been under my Instruction are now
making good money as teachers and
soloists. Pupils who are under my
care will be thoroughly instructed in
music. R P TAIT, teacher.
Peddlers iu the northwest will
earn all the money they get if
the proposed legislation of the
merchants of Idaho, Oregoa and
Washiugton becomes a law at
this session of the legislature. A
bill for the licensing and re
stricting them has been intro
duced in the Idaho and Oregon
legislatures and will be present
ed to the Washington legisla
ture in a few days.
The good road movement is
being seriously considered by
the citixeus of this county. The
demiind is growing so rapidly
that our county court will be
compelled to arrange for a more
extensive plan than now em
ployed. It means much to the
farmer whether he can haul
from 4000 to 6000 pounds to
market or whether he can hardly
get there with 1000 pounds.
