Balearic islands, in the Mediterranean, off
the coast of Spain, where they grow wild.
The vines Chamber over the rock in a very
beautiful manner, and the berry, which is

A DESIRABLE CHANGE.
The Vote on school Directors should

Apropos of the fact that there was SO
much dissatisfaction over the way the
popular will OF the people was defeated
at the school election last June by the
INSCRIPTIONS Introduction of the ballots
OF nom residents, lii has been suggested
that hereafter the legalized voters cast
their vallots in their respective wards in
accordance with their registration as in
other elections, thus banishing the method
OF casting all the bsllols indiscriminately
at one polling place, where no track can
De Kept OF voters and where the legiri-
mate vote is trampled under foot and
overwhelmed by non residents as was the
case last spring. Certainly if there is
one election more than another in which
the will of the people of the CITY should
prevail, it is in the matter of the public
schools and for this reason the election
should be given all the protection that
the law authorizes.
The charter under which our schools
are operated makes it discretionary with
the mayor as to the manner of receiving
the vote. We quote from thelsw: The
meetings for said elections shall be noti-
ned oy the mayor of the city of Rock
Island, By giving at least ten days notice
OF the time and place, or places of said
election. by publ shing notice thereof
In one or more of the newspapers of said
CITY and the poll books shall be opened
and kept, the votes canvassed, and re.
turns made, and all other proceedings,
had IN the same manner, as in elections
OF may or and aldermen in the CITY of
Rock Island; provided that it, shall not
be necessary to open the polls at more
than one place, unless the MAYOR NAV
deem it expedient to open them in each
ward of said city"
In view OF the outrage CO mmitted a
year ago it is expedient that the MAYOR
should exercise his prerogatiye and open
q voting place in each ward.
The election occurs the last Tuesday
in June under the law, and the MAYOR
should consider well the necessity of the
situation and then issue the cell provid.
ing 10. the opening of a polling place in
each ward, and the admission of the le.
gallzed vote only as in other elections.
