COURT HOUSE f
Regarding School Taa LevUe.
Bnperintendent Savage has been
busily engaged in sending out the
customary notions to the various
school district!, calling the attention
of the boards to the matter of the
attending to the special school tax
levy, if ibey uiay deasire to place any.
In reply to numerous inqoiries re
ceived fioin many sections of the
state, Attorney-General Crawford has
given an opinion iu which he gives an
interpretation of the act providing
for the annual school district tax
levy, holding that a district may
hold an election at any time duriug
the year and vote the tax or the
actions taken at the first election may
be rescinded at subsequent election
and a new tate of levy made, provid
ing the Dotice of change is ic the
hands of the County Clerk prior to
Juanary 1 in order that the correction
uiay be made and the levy exteuded
upon the tax roll. "No time is arbi
trarily fixed for school district to
hold an election for voting taxes,"
says the Attorney-Geueral in the
opinion which is addressed to District
Attorney U. W. Phelps, of Pendleton.
It can be held at any time providing
it does so In time to notify the County
Clerk Drior to Jannary 1. Under the
general rule that the power which
creates can destroy or nndo the school
district has the right under the law to
rescind the vote if, In the opinion of
the majority of the voters, it is con
siderbaed for the best interests of the
district. After the meeting a certified
oopy of the record bad with the notice
of the new levy would be sufficient
for the County Clerk to disregard the
first notice and act upon the record,
providing it la done before Janoary 1.
County School Newa Items.
Owing to the illness of her husband,
who la laid up with ao attack of
typhoid fever, Mra Ida Swacker,
teacher of the Centennial school,
District No. 28, has closed her school
for a cople of weeks, so that she might
look after his comfort.
The Kerby school Is tke only one in
Josephine county, outside of the
county seat that has a olass in the
Ninth Grade, this year. The work is
being carried on quite successfully
under the tutelage of Miss Cora
Smith, the very efficient teacher.
Sdlina boasted of doing work of this
kind, but failed to have any pupils
in that grade.
Superintendent Savage's determi
nation to put a stop to the teachers
missing the annual institute, by
giving all those who remained away
from the last gathering demerit
marks, has stirred up thiogs and
those teachers are now quite sorry
they did not comply with the law
which is very explicit in stating they
mast attend such sesssions.
The books for the different school
libraries, throughout this couutry
have arrived and Superintendent Sav
age is now ohecking tliein up and the
officers of the districts may now send
for them. There are 700 volumes
iu all. The sum of 10 cent) per child
is assessed iu each district. Two dis
tricts, oamely, Waldo,, gave $54 eitra
for additional books and Grants Pass
alto gave some additional.
Some Miscellaneous Matters.
Cupid seems somewhat put out by
reason of the holidays, but he mana
ges to send iu a few orders which ure
gladly filled by County Clerk Chesh
ire. The lit doenmeut of this kind
was to Lamnut D. Corbet, aged a J aud
Elsie Stone, aged 21, both resident of
Grants Pass
Next Wednesday the regular session !
of the County Commissioners Court 1
will be in session. If the holidays'
"P'" 1 up uerors mat aay. then
the board will proceed to clean up I
considerable business which has been !
accumulating. Otherwife another poet 1
poneuient will likely ooour. 1
And still the holidays come aud go, ,
with the natural result that com-!
paratively little business is being 1
carried on at the conrtliouse. The !
officers are hoping that it will soon be '
legal for them to get to work aud
th us earn their aalaries, as their con-1
sciences are troubling them. T. P. '

WOMEN'S WOES
Grants Pass Women are Finding
Relief at Last.

It does seem that women have more
thau a fair share of the aches and
pains that afflict humanity; they
must keep up, must attend to duties
in spite or constantly aching backs,
or headaoes, dizzy spells, bearing
down tains; they must stoop over.
when to stoop means torture. They
mnst walk and bend and work with
racking pains and many aches from
kidney ills. Kidneys cause more
sofferiDB than any other organ of the
body. Keep the kideys well and
health is easily maintained. Read of
a remedy for kidneys only that helps
ana cures tne kidneys and Is endorsed
bv people you know.
Mrs. K. K. Veatoh. N. Fifth St ,
Grants Pass, Ore., says : For a long
time I had been troubled from kidney
complaint and rhematism. Pains in
my back, hips and limbs caused me
much misery and I constantly lost a
great deal of rest at night, arising in
the morning, tired and unrefrenhed.
After trying several remedies without
relief, I heard about Doan's Kidney
Pills and procured a box at Clemens'
drug store. At the time I had taken
the contents of th's box. uiv
health was greatly improved. I con
tinued their use and am alad to sav

Litter From Billboards.
One more department of clt m
ernment has assailed the billboard nui
sance as constituting a menace to civic
betterment, says the Los Angeles
Times. In several cities to the east
ward of California street superintend
ents have complained that the Utter
caused by posters peeling off Cannes
more rubbish to form In the gutters
than any other cause. All this Is en
couraging to those striving to attain a
high standard In civic beauty, for It
really looks as though we may eventu
ally clear ourselves of too obnoxious
presence of all billboards. So much
pressure Is being brought on this class
of advertisers thnt It Is either stop or
