ists' Petition.
SANTA ANA, April 1.-THE oil absorb
ing question today is the high school,
and "reminiscences OF bygone DAYS would
come up occasionally. One OF theae was
to the effect that long ago, when there
was but one school house in the city,
there was clamor for q school house In
another part OF the city. So to please
that usction the school board sawed the
school house intwo, and moved one halt
to the district that wanted a new school
house, which seemed to satisfy them.
The election today is very satisfactory,
az nearly the whole vote will be for the
high school. At this writing there are
about 500 voters polled and still voters
are coming in. The vote will run over
500, 1t is thought.

The postofice furry which struck
Santa Ana yesterday kept growing until
this morning, when the whole thing ex-
ploded with "dull thud," there being

think we will have all this to 60 through
with again when the great event does
really happen.

women. 1t was, however, grand dis
play OF signatures OF people who ask the
