If the money were borrowed from time to time as needed while the building Is in course of erection the interest to pay during 1895 and lse6 would equal about one-half the interest for one year on the total cost of the building. The premium from the sale of bonds would meet this, and If the average premium were realized that has been realized from the sale of all school bonds that have been sold. there would be money left to apply on the interest for lss8-7. .t.
 therefore respectfully submit and recommend that the district instruct the board to proceed to erect building at once on the lot purchased for that purpose. and that the district authorize and instruct the board to apply to the legislature at It's next session for Fer mission to bond the district to pay for its erection.

 At this point Attorney Jacob P. Good hart jumped to. his feet and opposed the adoption of the majority report. He said: T am not In favor of the report submitted by, the majority. cannot see that any, good or sufficient reason has been presented why 1t should be adopted but if any such reasons are advanced will most cheer fully vote for. it.. .. I have attended nearly every district meeting for the past nine years and believe that this matter should receive the attention and consideration of intelligent citizens in meeting like this. You may call the project to postpone the building by the subterfuge of economy or any other name you may wish, but you will find by a careful examination that the men who are in favor of this report have been opponents of what Is called the higher education. There is only one reason why they say the high school should not be built now and that is, that the financial condition of the dis trict does not warrant 1t. MT. Thomas is man who knows the needs of the district and I honor him for the stand he has taken in the matter. If we had more, like him in the. schools we should have better ones. Even if 1000 news papers should oppose the project, would still favor 1t. now ask that the matter be submitted, to the electors at the polls next month and let the people decide the matter there, Pre- sent it to the people aud let them decide Y T. q

 Moderator Hilter'ruled that MT, Good hart had the floor and was entitled tc speak az long as-lhes.desired. .4 This in- terruptfon, however somewhat dis turbed MT. Goodhart and he soon after took his seat. r& Hardly had he taken his seat when Waiter Leigh Jumped to his feet and called out in a loud voice: T move we adjourn sine die" This motion .wae seconded in one breath by several score of those present and Moderator Hitler put the motion. A viva voce vote was taken, which Moderator Hil- Ter decided had been carried in the affirmative. His decision was doubted and vote taken a ss cond time by rais- ing hands. This showed that those present were clearly in favor of ad. iournment and the moderator a second time declared the motion carried and the vast crowd proceeded to leave the hail.
 The effect of this action was to defer aif further action on the high, school question until the next annual meeting of the district.
 Attorney Fowler had prepared the following votes, which he intended to offer. but in consequence of the turn the affairs took, had no opportunity to do so:
 i. voted, That the building of high school be postponed until the next an nual meeting.
 2, Voted, That the board of education consider and report upon the propriety and cost of buiJ5ing wing to the Boardman Training school with a seat ing capacity of at least 300 pupils.
 "a Voted, That the, question of the feasibility and propriety of securing land in the eastern, as we'll as in the western part of the town for the pur- nose of erecting thereon two school houses of high school grade for the better convenience and accommoda- tion of pupils be referred to the board of education with request to report at the next annual meeting.
