work the programme of exercises was
not prepared with the usual care. The

fine indeed. A warm discussion was
had over the resolution prese nted by

feet. The following officers were elect
ed: J. W. Cochran, President; Mrs.

Susie Shoemaker, Secretary Mrs.
VIM. Kline, Treasurer Willie Comp
ton, Marshal j. ". Gaynor, F. J..

The County Board. The Board
met on Monday last. But little bust
ness was transacted. The sum Of if
teen hundred dollars was appropriated
to repair the old bridge, and the settle
ment Of the W. P Lynde claim for
illegal tax certifcats in the hands of
L. P. Powers was considered; the
board offering to settle the claim for
that sum. We were not present, but
such is the understanding of the case

The School Meeting. -To-mor

vene second school meeting at the
school house, called by quite number
Of our citizens who claim that a Just
expression of the sentiment of the dis
trict was not had at the meeting on the
18th inst. The night being exceed
in9ly stormy, and an error in the place
! Of meeting having been made, the Tri6-
anc announcing it to be at the City
Hall, and the REPORTER designating
no particular place, it may perhaps be
proper to hold a second meeting, al
! though the written notices posted as
required by law, designated the place
and hour, which is all the law requires.
Now we wish to say word relative to
the purpose of the meeting, that our
people may have just conception of
the matter at issue. There is an idea
prevalent that the money hitherto voted
has been squandered, while in fact the
amount collected of the sum assessed
has been carefully appropriated to le
Ultimate ends, and every dollar can be
accounted for. Of the amount assess
ed, viz $4,000, about three-fourths,
or some $4,000 has been collected.
/ This amount has been used in prepar-
ing the foundation of the building,
building the walls up to the water-ta-
bles, making purchases of materials and
pr, parIng the interior wood work, doors
and castings, window castings, brackets,
etc, all Of which make no show be-
cause not in sight, as the structure has
as yet not assumed proportions where
they can be revealed to the eye. We
make no unwarranted assertion when
we state that t,cO thousand dollars ex-
pended for masOn's labor in the spring
in rearing the walls of the building will
have made such a showing, that We
verify believe two-thirds of those now
opposed to the prosecution Of the work
because they see nothing, as has been
asserted, -''but a hole in the ground,
will be ready to say, "procure the loan
and erect tie 6uilding." The object
the Board OF Education have in
procuring the loan is to save the dis
trict what has already been done, and
thereby secure school building which
will be adequate to the wants of the
district The Howe bequest is not at
present available, neither can it erer be
used in buitdiny other than the building
noc IN process Of construction. The
present school house is unsafe and un-
healthy it is slur upon the educa-
tional interests of the city, and the
progressive spirit Of our people. The
loan can be procured at the low rate of
7 per cent, and the amount asked for
will 60 far toward completing the build
ing. and by many it is thought ample
to complete the structure. In view of
all these facts, it seems the height Of
folly to oppose a measure so salqtary,
SO bene6cent. 1t is to be hoped that q
candid public sentiment will pronounce
in favor of the project which will give
our city building in which we will
ali take just pride-one that is de-
manded by the exigences of our ed
vocational interests, one that will en-
nance property values, and build us up
rather than demoralize and paralyze.
Let every voter in the district attend
the meeting, and let cool, dispationate
vote determine the will of the people.
