There seems TO be a good deal Of in-
teTest taken by the people all over
the county, in the candidacy Of Mrs
A. J. Carruthers for the office OF
School Superintendent. The names
Of PrDfs. Rollmsn, Hillman and Good

Of them are well qualified, but It is
understood that Mr.. ROllman has per-
smptorily declined to be a candidate,
1t is unknown to the writer whether
the others are candidates or not.
This Is, In many respects, the most
important office in the county, and
there should be no mistakes made I'm
the selection Of a person for that posi-.
ton. To fill this Office well requires
wide and accurate scholarship, good
executive ability, large Acquaintance
with methods OF instruction and dis
eipline and unquestiOned integrity Of
character.
All who know Mrs. Carruthers will
cOncede to her all these qualifications
In high degree. 1t has been urged,

that the people will manifest their ap-
