The Diamond correspondent spoke
in last weeks REGISTER of the lOca-
ton of the County High School in
very plain terms. 1t is true Moran
would like the County High School
located here, and it seems to us that
no better location could be found.
The gentleman" mentioned might
have seen less had he kept away from
Objectionable places himself. But to
be brief, "in ali honesty and charity"
is it fair TO judge Moran by one day
in that week of the 81 when there are
the most bad characters in town and
to judge not by our steady, industri-
Gus citizens who are here all the time,
but by the transient rough characters
who can have no possible influence on
the students, and who are here but for
one week. And besides all this the
nrohibitorv law is as well enforced in
Moran as in any town in the county.
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Hummiston
spent last Sabbath in Moran visiting
relatives.
