MORE CONSOLIDATION.
A Combine of the Centennial and the
Central High Schools.

Anything to reduce expenses and yet
not hamper progress. should be the
watchword with all classes of people in
the city. The idea of the consolidation of
the two high schools of Pueblo would
seem TO be popular. for by SO doing a
direct saving would result to the over
burdeped tax payers County Superin-
tendent Bowman has started the dis
cussion and the matter should be
thoroughly canvassed. If by consolidat-
ing the two high schools into one
greater institution a corps of teachers
in one of the Institutions can be dis
pensed with, thereby saving from 80.
600 10 Sl5 900 per snnum. the idea
should be carried out although another
building must be erected, for more
school room will be demanded in the
near future at any rate For the time
being. anyhow, let the two schools be
consolidated to the extent of doing
with only one city superintendent. As
II is. Prof Search of the south side gets
S.. 600 year and Prof McClung OF the
north side gets So. 700 year One of
these salaries can and should be dis
pensed with. For that matter Mr.
Bowman could on pinch look after
the city schools for time and save the
other salary.
The idea of the people of Pueblo
paying five per cent on city property is
preposterous, and the high taxes will
of themselves prevent general i'm
provements for time at least until
be more economy in city affairs.

For long time prior to the execu-

who wanted the body for dissection
as well as several enterprising dime

questioned everyone whom it was

decided that Guiteau should make a
