There Is Probably . Niger In 1t.

To THE EDITOR OF THE TINES:
The school trustees of this precinct
are acting rather queerly, it seems to
me, in the matter of supplying wood
for the schoolhouse. They awarded a
contract, some time ago, for five cords
of wood, to the business partner of
one of them, at $40 per cortland
rotten cottonwood at that
The wood was brought uncut, in
logs or trees, and piled up, and ac-
cepted as five cords, sin the pile"
Now. Mr.. Editor, there are plenty
of settlers here who would gladly
have supplied wood free for the
schoollIouse. In fact, some Of US had
load apiece picked out, ready to de.
liver it when asked to. But the trus-
