School Matters.
The law requires the county treasurer
to report to the county superintendent
the amount of money available for school
purposes on the first Monday of July,
when it becomes the superintendent's
duty to apportion it among the several
township corporations in proportion to
the number of children in each of school
.age. In view of this fact, this office
.urges the clerks of the different townships
to take the census of their respective cor
porations with as little delay as possible,
and the township treasurers to qualify
and file their bonds at the county clerk's
.office. Uutil this is done no public
•money can be apportioned, and a pro
tracted delay may result in the forfeiture
.of the township's apportionment. The
law is very strict, and must be complied
.with by this office. J. H. WORST,
Now Is the Time.
The attention of those of our citizens
who have not yet subscribed to the REC
'ORD is called to the fact that this paper is
devoted to advancing the interests of the
•whole county, and that by neglecting to
send in their names they are throwing the
support of the county journal on its pres
ent subscribers, who are no more inter
ested than themselves. Times are hard,
•we know, and, if not convenient to pay a
full year's subscription at once, the pub
lisher will endeavor, by strengthening his
trowsers pockets, to provide for the extra
weight of a few silver half-dollars or dol
lars. At any rate, when you are in town,
call and see us.
A Mammoth Turtle.
Last week Messrs. Derr, Crogan, Simon
Kurtz, Fish, Brindle and Snyder went
down to Beaver Creek on a fishing excur
sion. Besides a goodly number of the
finny tribe, they captured an eighteen
pound turtle. The latter "insect" was
.converted into soup at the residence of
Mr. William L. Yeater. With his usual
•good luck when any delicacy is to be de
voured in the neighborhood, the RECORD
man came in for a share of his turtleship,
and he here desires to express the hope
that more of his kindly-disposed neigh
ors will soon visit the classic shores of
Beaver creek. Yum-yum 1
Sign the Petition.
It is absolutely necessary that the peo
pie of the Williamsport neighborhood
have proper mail facilities. There is a
large and rapidly growing postal business
here, and we should have at least a tri
weekly service from Bismarck. A petition
has been prepared, and every man,
woman, boy and girl in the country tribu
tary to Williamsport should call at the
postofflce and sign it.
Trouble Ahead.
"The boys" have procured a base-ball
outfit, and are now prepared to break
their fingers, run their noses in the ground
and bark their shins in the highest style
of the great American art
CITIZENS of Empions County, when in
Bismarck, are requested to call at the
store of Bushman & Co., where they will
find the largest and most complete stock
of Groceries, Flour, Feed and Grain in
the Northwest. They also handle a full
line of Crockery, Lamps, and Chandeliers.
They buy and sell for cash, and guarantee
satisfaction and the lowest prices for
cash.
IF you want any Wall Paper, Shades,
Books, Stationery, Blank Books, Pocket
books, or Sunday-School Supplies, the best
place in Bismarck to buy them is J. W.
CLARKE'S BOOK STORE, Main street
