TIICKSDAY. MARCH 211. 190.S.
Governor Miliriilo of WnxliiiiKton
vetoed tlio Biiprojiriatiou of fiO.OOO,
made by thn legislature of that state
for the Lelwis & Clark fair. He

President Geo. Kstos, of lire Tinted
Brotherhood of Railway KmploycH, has
been on trial thin week in Victoria,
I!. 0., on a charge of coimpiracy to
delay the mails of hi majesty, King
Kdward, hy inciting the crew of the
steamer Charmer to strike. Tlie trial
is an outcome of the strike on tin
Canadian I'acilc railway. Eh.ch
denies that ho incited anyone to
strike.
The anthracite coal strike commis
sion has completed its rejsirt The
miners win on nearly all (mints. Tlie
report establishes a slidiiiK scale of
wages with increase of nearly 20 per
cent over the scale jiaiil last year, and
for check wclghinou and tlockltiR
bosses, to tio ilcl by the miners. It
provides for district board of concili
ation for tlin Mettlemeut of disputes
and the prevention of strikes. It de
clares SKainst discrimination bcause
of membership or non-membership In
any labor organization and condemns
child labor, boycottiiiK and lawless
ness. Sir Tliomaa Upton, tlie iiidoiuilahle
seeker after thu "America" cup, has a
new challenger afloat this year, tlie
"Shamrock 1IL" This vessel la said
to be a new departure In yatchla and
lier jiecnlinr eonstnictlou is ultructitis;
a good deal of attention. Thu Amer
icans have been winning the yacht
races for bo long that they are very
liable to lie over confident is a histori
cal sourco of defeat. While the
Americans are patriotic in yacht rue.
iiiK s in other ways, yet it is likely
that they would not feel very sorrow
ful If Upton should lift the cup, as
they feel such giunoiiosN as his is de
serving of reward. If Upton hi, on I.I
win, it breaks thu monotony of re
sults in this animal event ami will
revivo the flagging Interest.
At the present time, it seems very
likely that tho 1-owis & Clark fair
appropriation bill will lie subjected
to the referendum. While in our
opinion tho bill will lm supHirted by
thu liopular vote, vet if the neonle
want tho referendum they should
have it on this or any other measure
uuder the sun. While the intelligence
or the manses ' is often SHikeu of
lightly, it w ill be noticed that the
J-nptilur decision is generally a w ise
one, especially wlicro tlie quest ion is
well understood. It is better, in
almost every cane, to hearken unto tin'
Voico of the iHiiple, than unto tin
voice of the politician and manipu
lator. If the referendum Is a privilege
of the H'ople, let them use it, when
and where they will. The referendum
may Is, considered the jn'ople's pet
measure and those who oppose it ro
hamper its workings are going up
against a thing that is greater ami
more powerful than political organiza
tions. Popular sentiment is Hie great
est isilitical power ami those who
work against it must do so quietly, to
avoid arousing it.
THE NEW SCHOOL HOUSE
Plans Completed and Construc
tion V III Soon Begirt.
The plans for the new school house
to bo built this year on upper Seventh
street have been completed. It will
be a very creditable structure and is
a luully needed one in view of the
school's present crowded condition
Tho building w ill be situated on the
oast side of Seventh strict on a por

face toward Seventh street. Arrange
mom will ho made for a cross street
from Sixth to Eighth street, as the
non-existence of sin h a street has l-ecn
a vexatious inconvenience to the vo
pie of that portion of the city for
many years.

Mrs. O'Pri.n was at horn- with a!!
her children, except Maud, who is at
school in Modford. She has men at 'tog
work putting li.T bouse and ranch in an
lirst class cim. liti. in. She kill, d last
fall, '.si head of fat hogs and bad tin
meat baconed, which she sold a few
days ago at a good price and -he sa.v.-
she feels cn"ourag. d in Iot milage.
and thinks times are better now than
they have been lor years, mid every
thing looks bright. There have been
three uew families moved on the Ap
plogate in the last month, from Ne
braskaMr W. (yuin, ll.tiry Clark.
and Ci. o. Hishop. I le v all have
families and they told me they w.-re
surprised and pleased w ith tl. dima:.
and what they have seen.
Henrv Kubli, about one mi!.- from
O'llrien's has a ranch that would :i
tonish the natn ti. lie ha- about i'
acres. His house is elegant uml le
has some of the liie-st slock have v r

(In St. Patrick's Day they all bad a
jolly time at ilo.-e's hall, with a
grand ball. There were some from
.Modford, Jacksonville and (irants
i'ass, and nothing hapfHm.-d to mai i
the occasion, and St. l'atrick was!
surely there tor there was no one got
make bir.
I called at Jack I-ayton's fine home
hut found he had gone to (irants I'a-s
with his daughter. Mrs. Wilbur', but
was received kindly bv those who
were there.
At I'rovolt, Lew Smith, the post
master, store keeier and black-mini,
anil also Grandpa Fields was there.
They received me kindly, showed me
over his place and they were loud in
their praise of the good tine s and the
line dreg. in climate and it makes one
feel good to see every one happy.
Mr I'rovolt has bought a tine team
which be paid Ji H for mid says they
are ( heap at IIH). He says when the
president conies to (irants l'ass, he
will lie there on time.
Mr Moon's mill is undergoing a big
improvement, getting ready for the
coining season's work. He was rushing
things for all it was worth, lb- told
me he had received several let ters
from his eastern friends, asking about
(Iregnn the climate, etc., anil he
w rote them to mck up and come out
here.
Mr. Duiilap, late of l'hoenix, Jack
son countv, bought the I'rovolt pla.a
this side of the mill ami is having it
put in number one shape. He P els
encouraged, saks well of the times.
At school district No. 10, the direct
ors are getting material on li'iiul in
len. hug to remodel the old school
house and make it look as pleasant as
possible for the many children that
attend. I understand the school c.iiu
mciicri the lf of April, with Mrs.
Kale Hyde as teaher. She is a si.-tei
of Kd Harriott, the popular stage man.
Kaspar Kubli and partner, I'd
Swindell, are doing some g..c,d work
on their mining claim. They showed
one some beautiful s c inn ns of course
gold. Kltncr Williams is also working
the same mine on the Appl. guto.
('has L. Swindell is having his
house painted ami is making general
improvements on bis rain-h. Clark
Simons is taking advantage of the
nice weather and is pruning un his
orchard.
In my last letter I forgot to men
tion the school huildiulg mar Mur
phy. It is on a beautiful mound
about lili) yards from the main road,
and they have recent lv built a neat
little bridge that 1, ads' from the t-i.a.l
to the school house L.l'orc it was
done, the children had a bad place in
cross. The house on tl i;t-ido v
