Roads Open Across

The roads across the Cascade
mountains have remained open
unusually late this fall. There

mained in very good condition.

from Sisters to his borne the first
of this week by auto with little
trouble. The roads on the west

Poor Turnout to
School Meeting
There was a small attendnnce at
the school meeting Monday after
noon to vote the millajre tax for the
ensuing school year. After some
discussion it was decided to levy a
17 mill tax. This is three mills less
than last year. The 17 mills will
enable the school directors to meet
all expenses without resorting to
temporary loans, near the close of
' the year, to meet current expenses,
; thus saving interest money to the
j taxpayers.
J The directors held a session at
j the close of this meeting at which
j time the resignation of Dr. Belknap
was read and accepted.
Clerk Shipp has posted notices
tor a call meeting to be held Decem
ber 1st. at which time a director
will be elected to serve in Dr. Bel
knap's place. It is to be hoped
that enough interest will be taken
in this matter to bring out a good
vote. Be on hand at 2 o'clock on
Monday afternoon, December 1, at
the schoolhouse prepared to do
your full duty toward our public
schools-
Laidlaw Has the Oldest
Living Ex-Official
Crook county is not to be out
done in the matter of furnishing
the oldest living official in the state.
The claims of Mr. James FJkins was
disputed by L. L. Whiteomb of Sag
inaw, Oregon. Mr. FJkins held of
fice 51 years ago but Mr. Whiteomb
went him seven years better.
Now comes B. F. Nichols of Laid
law who can ge Mr. Whiteomb nine
years better. Mr. Nichols writes:
"I was elected sheriff (under the
provisional government of Oregon)
j of Polk county the first Monday in
June, 1846, sixty-seven years ago.
Again in 1852, under the territorial
organization, I was elected sheriff;
served two years and was re-elected,
serving two consecutive terms. B.
F. Nichols."
