understand that other schools are soon 10
be supplied from the same source. P.S.,
Mr.. Gaebler is member of the school board
and belongs to "the ring"
Miss Lucy Sweeney, sister of Mr.. E.
Sweeney, has charge of one of the primary
departments in our public schools. P. S.,
Mr.. Sweeney is member of the school
board.
The fact that the first ward pays one
third of the city taxes, and has accordingly
paid literally towards the erection of three
large and costly school buildings in other
portions of the city, seems to have escaped
the observation of those who now want to
put up on the Prentiss block, a ST. 900 rock
cry which will not arise to the dignity OF
first class barn. If it were necessary 10
furnish more school facilities, which it is
not, a respectable building, and not a
shanty is what is wanted.
When we went to school, FIVE was al
ways a majority of eight, but according to
the school board, six is the figure.

Tense of the school board 1t assails Mr..
Moak for his earnestness and activity i n
opposition to the boards action with refer
ence to the proposed new school house 1t
says that "Mr. Moak has no children to
send to school, and consequently has no
interest in the matter one way or the other :"
This is novel idea. Mr.. Moak, in common
with every tax payer, has a right to de-
mand that the public m oney shall not be
squandered in unlaw full undertakings; and
as citizen to favor or oppose, as he may
deem proper, the erection of public build
ings, and to have choice as to whether
they shall be disgrace or a credit to the
city. He has exercised these privileges in
way to command the appro baton of nine
tenths of our citizens, and he has every
reason to feel satisfied with the result of his
efforts. His position is far more enviabe
than that of the school board whose mem.
bers seem just now to be fiat upon their
backs.

NJ igginon in opposition 10 the scheme
of the school board, and Prof E. c. Gaze
bier In support of the measures taken
by the board, after which Mr.. Moak
offered the following resolutions prefacing
his action by setting forth in forcible mar
ners the illegal proceeding of the board in
their attempt to erect the building proposed:
WHEREAS, The board of Education, con.
trary to law, and in spite of the remon-
stance of very large number of citizens,
has ordered the erection of a school build
ing on block IS, in the LIST ward, and
WHEREAS, 1t appears that no necessity
exists al the present time for the erection
of any additional school buildings, and
WHEREAS, If such were not the case, and
further accommodations are required for
the use of the public schools, better build
ing than the one in view should be con-
strucled, therefore
Resolved. That we are opposed to the
erecti on of any such structure as the one
contemplated, which will be wholly made
quate for the purpose in view, and a lasting
disgrace to the city.
ResoIved, That we cannot too severely
denounce the unwarranted and nnjustifable
action of the school board in squandering the
public money, and over riding the painest
provision of law.
Resolved, That it Eis high time that this
lawles sness on the part Of officials should
cease, and that measures be taken at once
to restrain, by injunction, the school board
from proceeding further in its unlawful un-
dertaking.
The resolutions as read were unanimously
adopted.

The sad intelligence has been received
here of the death of Mr. j no .McArdle, which
occurred at Denver, Colorado, Friday morn
isg, August 2. Mr.. McArdle left this city
some months ego for Colorado, hoping that
the climate of that mountainous region
would be beneficial TO his declining health,
being for some time before sufferer from
consumption. Favorable reports had been
received from him, giving his friends hope
OF his ultimate recovery. The news,
therefore, of bis death took the communi.
ty somewhat by surprise. Mr.. McArdle
was the senior partner in the grocery and
dry goods firm of McArdle h Lynch, on
the west size, and be was regarded as an
active ard reliable business man, and high
~ popular with all Who held his acquain-

EDIroE REPUBLICAN:-In my communica-

that l would renew my attack on his tan
glo-Cambrianisms" whenever be gave me
provocation by printing anything which re-
sembled in style his now famous "Boat
ride" performance. His article on the
school shansy affords material for more
lengthy criticism than that by which his
aquatic efusion was honored, but if the
young man only shows a desire to improve,
clips bis rhetorical wings and eschews poly
syllables, promise that l will allow him
that peace for which he signs. He should
remember the old adase, :'Large boats may
venture more, but little boats (like his)
should keep near shore" As to my being
an enemy of his and trying to ruin bis
business, be was never more mistaken in
his life. Honi soft qui maly pense.
