If the voters of Butte had accepted the
school tax a few weeks ago, the trustees
could have continued to dispose of school

ceived by the trustees for the hall. And all
those offers came from troups to which the
Owsley hall canno be let, under the terms of
its lease. By the necessary withdrawal of
school hall from public use, the school funds
