SCHOOL ELECTION

very rev knSW Vi the fEOpOSl-
tion on Text Books
Although very few people knew
it, an election was held on Satur-
day. 1t was conducted by the
school board and was to decide
whether or not free text books
should be furnished in theschools.
The vote was 134 to 80 in favor of
free books.
The notice of election was pub
lished only in the self-styled "offi-
cial" paper. Hence the few who
were aware ct it. One man who
heard of it today declared that it
had not been advertised. "Oh yes
it was" said town official. at
was in the (unmentionahle organ.)
"Sheolp said the other. "Why
didn't they publish it in an al
manac?"
The Tribune and the Citizen
did not mention thesselection, in
order to see what publicity it
would attain from official" publ
cation only.

AT OMAHA'S FAIR
Henry Lewis Describes Its rlany
Attractions

AIlI0ClIOuS
In glowing terms of comparison
even with the great Worlds Fair
in Chicago, Henry Lewis, who has
just returned from the Omaha ex-
position speaks of that collection
of wonders and interesting ex-
hibits.
Mr.. Lewis returned on Saturday
night after ten days absence from
Florence and he found the
atmosphere here delightfully."- cool
in comparison with that of Omaha.
The heat is positively the only
drawback to visit to Omaha at
this time, he says.
In speaking of the exposition as
compared with the Worlds Fair,
he said: "The United States ex-
hibft II sxcsllenf and vary nsarlys
if not quite equal TO that at
Chicago, Nebraska makes
splendid showing and one would
suppose almost that all the money
in the state had been expended on
its exhibit. One of the most
notable and instructive features of
this display as relating to the
wonderful development of the
Transmississippi states, is an ex-
hibit depicting the progress OF a
German immigrant, from the time
of his departure from the Father
land to that of the celebration OF
his twentieth anniversary as an
American citizen and resident
of Nebraska. The tableeux are
constructed entirely of corn. One
of them shows group of figures
seated at table. The figures are
modelled in putty with wonderful
skill, but the clothing, haiz and all
ac ,essories are of corn. The ef-
feet obtained is something won
derful.
81 regretted to notice a great
sign: Colorado will occupy this
space over space almost vacant.
The Colorado exhibit is wretched
and makes one ashamed that it
should be pointed out.
"a most interesting exhibit is
the fisheries. It shows the hatch
ing and development of fish, all
kinds of appliances used and has
besides, an aquarium of consider
able extent. The irrigation exhib-
its must be most instructive and
interesting to Eastern visitors.
The exposition as whole cannot
be too highly commended"
Dr.J. H. Morgan, the osteopath,
will be in Canon City the after
moons of Tuesday. Thurs
day and Saturday of each week.
The balance of the time he will be
found in his Office, in the Lobach
block, Florence.
