nW@We noticed briefly last week
the absconding of Messrs. Crotty &
Whitaker, butchers, from Platteville,
leaving a large number of debts unse t.
tied. We have since learned that they
owed Mr.. Wilkinson 500; j. F. Kirk
patrick $50; David Walker 500, Jonas
Rawson, $500; Mahony & Rockford
$40 Simon Haker $50, |. Hodges &
Co., 1851. There are number of
other claims the amounts of which we
have not been able to obtain. A COUP
lie of days before they left they sold a
lot of hides to a party from Mineral
Point and received so down. They
were to ship the hides by rail, but on
the day before they left. they sold
them to Thos. Shepard, of this
place, land pocketed the money. They
are both Englishmen, Crotty coming
from near Accrington. and Whitaker
from Clethroe. Mr.. Wilkinson is We
acquainted with Crotty's mother, and
visited her when he was N England 2
years ago. They have proved them
selves to be scoundrels of the first wa

School Meeting.

The annual school meeting in this
village on Monday evening was not
as we'll attended as we should
have liked to see it,--only about
thirty voters being present-but those
in attendance seemed imbued with
the spirit Of harmony and progress,
and we think the business transacted
will meet the approval Of our citizens
generally and prove conducive to the
good of the schools:
Orville Strong was elected treasurer
of the Board in place Of JAS. Roberts,
whose time had expired, which atgurs
that the duties of that Office will still
be discharged in an unexceptlonabie
manner. It was decided to have nine
months Of school the coming year,
to carry on which a tax of $l70O tor
teachers wages and $500 for cohtin-
gent expenses was voted. The meet
ing also directed that the north room
in the town hall building be rented
and an additional teacher employed
for that department., and that male
teachers should employed as prin-
cipals of the Rock and Grove schools,
but that the teacher Of the High
School should have a general supervi-
sion over all the schools-all of which,
we think, is a good, big step in the
right direction.
But the browning act Of the meet
ing, and the one which we think
should meet with the heartiest ap-
proval Of everyone who has the good Of
the community at heart,was the appoint
nent Of committee, consisting of S.
W. Reese, VIM. Harris, James
Roberts, j. T. Pryor, Jr., and James
Bennett, to select site for new
school house, for although the APP
poin tment of the committee is but the
veriest beginning toward respectable
school house, which we 50 much need.
It IS beginning, nevertheless, without
which we could never hope to sec the
end. We trust and doubt not that
this committee will discharge their i'm.
portant duty faithfully and we'll, care
fully Weighing every consideration,
and that their report may recommend
tie purchase of the best site, all
things considered, and be strongly
ratified by the people of the district
at the adjourned meeting 10 be held
the first Monday In September.
The great difficulty in the way of a
new school house in Dodgeville, here
tofore, has been the selection of a site;
and with the site once selected and
purchased, there is little doubt that
the erection Of the school house would
speedily follow. We are aware that
the burden of heavy taxes is a
great drawback to the progress of many
a town, but in this case the burden of
doing without a suitable-wo might
properly say respectable-school house
is far heavier and of vastly more det-
riment than any reasonable tax for
it's construction could possibly be.
By all means let us not allow the year
1876 to pass without seeing new
school house in DodgeviIle.

THE BURDooK WEED.-A gentle
man Of Grant County, who has made
farming study, has this to say:
"Many are not aware of the damage
done by this troublesome weed. The
soil is rapidly sapped of its richness.
The seed float down the rayines and
seed the country below, and our horses
hogs and sheep help spread the pest;
so much so that our laws impose a flue
upon whoever allows a burdock to ma
ture and produce seed upon his land.
Now is the time to dig up all on your
farm. You will not only do yourself
and neighbors great kindness. but
may save yourself from severe fine.
All should enforce the law in that re-
spect."
