Taxes are Collected.
The report of Assessor Gemmill, of
moneys collected on the current tax
roll, during the month of November
shows $44,460.65 collected. Of this
amount the state and county fund
gets $30,620.47, special school funds
aggregate $5,072.27, special property
road taxes, $4,816.24, live stock san
itary tax $81.85, predatory animal tax
Moscow $3,195.13, Genesee
$390.71, Kendrick $65.19, Troy 83.65,
Juliaetta $147.00, Bovill $31.70.
There is about four times as much
collected at this time as was col
lected last year, hilt that is due to the
fact that the audior's office was a
month earlier with the rolls this year,
and to the new law giving every tax
payer notice.

COMFORTS OF HOME
COULDN'T KEEP HIM
All the comforts of home couldn't
keep George Stone in jail, and as a
result Stone now has to answer to the
charge of jail-breaking if he is ever
found.
Stone was arrested for drunkenness.
Chief Blacker put him in the "skookum
house," and humanely let him in the
corridor to keep up a fire during his
incarceration. The chief also fur
nished the man with breakfast, and
made him thoroughly comfortable.
But not for George Stone. Although!
the chief searched his prisoner for
keys before he left, when he returned
Stone was gone. He had gotten help
some way and unlocked the door.
Although Stone was only held on a
charge of drunk and disorderely, he
is now facing a charge of jail break
ing, which is a criminal offense. And
if he ever comes back the officers
will press the charge against him.
Meanwhile, they do not particularly re
gret that he is gone.

SHERFEY'S BOOK STORE
ing the band contest at Spokane on
November 27, in which the Moscow
band won first prize of $250 and the
Sherman-Clay silver cup, valued at
$40.
The Pullman Tribune says: "Doubt
whether W. S. C. band had Square
deal," and goes on to say that one
man, by the way a Spokane man, said
it was not intended that the college
band should receive a prize. Now, in.
reply to the Pullman Tribune will say
that I think the men who acted
judges were too honorable to do any
thing but what was deserving in their
estimation. I further say I have al
ways considered it very poor sports
manship for anyone to enter a con
as
the decision was not
to their liking, offer excuses or say it
was not on the square. My band won
fair and could do the same thing over
again. Pullman made a good showing
and deserves much credit, but the Mos
cow band made a better showing. In
regards to the leader of the Lewiston
band, expressing the wish that the
second prize go to the W. S. C. band,
will say I have played under Professor
Baumgaetel of Lewiston and he must
have changed his disposition consider
able if he were foolish enough to
make or even express such a wish.
My band won and won on the square
and that's what hurts.
E, J. CAREY,
Director Moscow Band.
