ak livod In the strip Of territory to be
affected by the change OF boundary.
One OF the principal reasons why the
people Of District 81 desired AN Increase
oftofritory was that they might obtain
moro money from certain per cent
tax towards building u school house;
but they were already richer, compared
with their school population, than tho
district from which they wished to
take this territory. He Understood
that last December the people
Of District 81 voted down
tax 10 build a school house, thus show.
Ing their lack OF interest In educational
mnttem. On the contrary, those OF
District 81 voted a per cent tax 10
build school house In their district,
anu counted on receiving certain
sum from this tax for the purpose
named. II the proposed territory was
taken from them II would lessen this
revenue considerably aud therefore
