can club and 1t is said he did not once refer

Republicans Set q bad Example.
The Democrats were called ignorant be-
cause they did as the Republicans had done
year previous W regard to voting on the
school question. The correspondent who
wrote that article was undoubtedly right.
The Democrats were ignorant TO follow
any precedent laid down by the party who
preceded them The Republicans never
did anything in any ether way than to suit
themselves, whether il was right or wrong.
Every thing was always done for the bene.
Ht Of personal and party ends aud no party
should look to their acts as shinirg exam
pies.

The school trustees have proposals out
for the furnishing of $50 tons of coal to
the several school houses. Work will
begin Immediately on the Garfield street
school lot.
The school committee is Republican and
the trustees Democratic. The Republicans
now want to abolish the trustees and take
entire control. It's too bad that the rule
will not work both wsys and give the DEM
ocrats a hghtiug chance of sboli,hi1g the
committee.
