THE SCHOOL BOARD ELECTION.

Andrew ]. Ch.lberg, Asahel j. Wells and
Mrs Winnifred Thomas have been elect
ed members OF the school board. The
female voters turned out in unusually large
numbers and voted for the ticket with one
of their sex upon it. The election has been
generally non partisan, and without acri-
mony. The result has no political signifi-
canoe but Il. does show the advantage OF
organized effort.
The choice OF the majority Of voters Is
entitled to and should receive the most
loyal support Of the public and Of the
teachers. to the end that, in accord with
the other two members of the board. the
school system shall maintain the high
standard aimed for by the people Of this
city. The character Of the successful can
didates Justines the belief that they viii
give the public faithful service. and it is
to be hoped their acknowledged zeal VIII
be guided by good judgment.
