e . . TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION Pee. Delivered toany part uf the city. w Bnterprsing Citizens of ‘Washington to the we The residente of Washington are ap against the problem of either erecting &® new schoolhouse or else seeing their rosy cheeked lads and-lassies wandering aimlessly along the bighways and by ways seeking the path that leads up to the ball of philosophy. For, be it known, that the schoolhouse at that Justling little mountain burg is in a ~“ gad and dilapidated condition and in many respects a derelict. To remedy this the wide-a-wake and enterprising citizens are in favor of issuing bonds to meet the exigiences of the occagion, but in order to do this it ie necessary to call an election of the people of that townshship and gather in the affirmative a two-thirds vote, This, however, cannot be done until the tax roll of that district is fully investigated and found to be in fit condition:to warrant the property holders meeting their obligations when the same is-due and payable. .To ascertain the exact status of affeire E. T. Worthley and George Cloud, two influential and stable pillars of that town, who are first and foremost in everything appertaining to the progregs and advancemént of their people, are now in this city and while here will look up the necessary information that is required. If satisfactory an election will be held next month to vote the bonds. Should the proposition carry, and it most assuredly will, it is proposed to erect a building that will prove a credit. to the town; one that will be substantial and durable for many a year tocome. The town of Washington is now in a fairly prosperous condition, with the mining outlook in the ascendancy, and it is anticipated that at this opportune time a special school tax will work no apparent tribulations to those who have the welfare of the school children at heart, BRIEF MENTION.
