THE success of The Fleet scho j
has been phenomenal. Before
ground was broken for this institu-
ton the LEDGER said two hundred
students would attend. This would
have been the case if there had
been room. Col. Fleet, with that
pluck and public spirit which is
characteristic of the man, proposes
to make room and TO make it at
once. He can double the attend
ance if he had the capacity. He
proposes to double the capacity.
He don't ask a cent from the citi
zens of Mexico, as will be seen
from his plan which is explained
elsewhere in the LEDGER. He has
every confidence in the future OF
his school and proposes to invest
twenty thousand dollars more on
top of the thirty-fve thousand al
ready invested. All he asks is
that those who subscribed to the
first fund, give quit-claim deeds to
the property. He will then put
twenty Thousand dollars more into
q new building and other improve
ments. Some of the strongest
hackers of the school met at the
Southern Bank last night and
heartily endorse this movement
and signed quit claim deeds.
Everyone interested In the school
and Mexico will promptly sign
such deeds and do all in their
power to encourage Col. Fleet and
assist him in this move, which We
are sure will rebound to the best
interests OF the school and the
community. Besides the new build
ing to be erected, other improve
ments valuable and extensive are
being made, which insure the con-
tinued success and growth of this
magnificent institution.
