 more volunteers than any city of it's sizo in tho west. The boys were num- bered among the housh Ridcra, peck CTS, infantry, and some joining the reg ular army and navy. The war is over and welkin rings peace welcome from mountain top and rolling plane. The in coming trains for the next few weeks will bring back some of our boys, the Rough Riders, who while in Cuba made one of the brightest pages in American history.
 Bisbea has the distinguished honor of having sent one of the best troop com. manders in the Rough Rider regiment, im Lieut.. George Wilcox. Some of the boys return in good health, others arc broken down i'll body and delirioas at times with fevers contracted on ths San Juan hills, while others that are to come are disabled for life because of the hard- ships encountered in defending our flag and the honor of our nation. They de- serve every honor and attention that can be given them by our citizens.
 But while we are remembering these brave boys, let us not overlook the fact that we have a deep personal interest in Cuba. On the top of tine hill of San Juan, under the mango trees, there in a narrow trench lies some ot our bravcst boys who can never be paid the honor and respect due them. There will they rest until their remains are brought home by Il grateful government, and their bones are given sepulchre among their kindred.

 The voting at tho republican prima- ries was rather spirited today as there are number of aspirants for the nomi- nation of justice of the peace, and each candidate was doing his best to elect his men to the convention.

 At recent meeting of the public school board stringent rules were adop- ted for the government of the school next year. In these provisions the board shows a decided inclination to leave the entire management of the school in the principals hands, and will look to him alone for successful term. There is also a decided stand taken against interference of parents, who will be restricted to reducing their complaints to writing and presenting them to the board in this form. If this should be disregarded and an effort made on the part of the parent to create a scene at the school building authority is given the principal to send the child ren home with the offending parent.
