NEW PAPER

A handsome new sin-column
paper under the name of The Eliz-
abeth Eye appeared on Saturday
and is welcome addition 10 the
press of the county. Messrs.
Bennett 6 Holland, competent
newspaper men and well known
citizens, are at the head of the
enterprise and very neat and
newsy paper indeed is COTTON out
by them. The subscription price
is placed at the very reasonable

CEMETERY
ASSOCIATION

A meeting of officers of the
Elbert Cemetery Association was
held first of the week at which it
was ordered dead grass in the
cemetery be burned, after which
the grounds are to be raked and
all rubbish which has accumulated
during the winter is to be re-
moved. Graves which need it
shall be filed and rounded up in
good order and all extra dirt at
new graves is to be removed. A
new coat of good white paint for
the fence was decided on.
A few persons perhaps without
intending 10 do so are imposing
on the association by not paying
for lots in which rest their de-
ceased relatives. 1t was decided
to send statements to all such with
notice that as choice lots are in
demand if they do not pay
promptly the lots will be placed
upon the market again for sale.
1t is admitted by all who are
familiar with the situation that the
Ebert cemetery is the best in the
county and that its affairs are con-
Quoted in careful, systematic,
business-like way. The officers
are watchful to keep the fence,
grounds and everything pertaining
to the cemetery in the best order,
and when lots are desired go
promptly to the cemetery with
plat and give all information pos
sible and assist in making selec-
tions. Warranty deeds can
always be promptly obtained on
the payment of the price $1,000.
The association is wholly out OF
debt and has in the treasury
S1O5.25.

SCHOOL ELECTION

The annual school meeting and
election of officers occurs this year
on the first day of May. The
notice of the secretary should state
the hour at which the ballot box
will be opened and the hour at
which it will close, but in no case
should it close in less than three
hours from the hour Of opening.
The election should bo conducted
just as the general election was
conducted under the old law, ex-
cept that registration is not neces-
sary. The directors are the judges
of election, receive the ballots of
the qualified electors as they are
offered during the three hours,
keeping Il list of those voting and
numbering the ballots. There is
no meeting to be called to order
until the ballot box is closed, the
vote, canvassed, and the result
announced, and consequently no
nominations for Office are made.
LIZ it is considered desirable to
make nominations in order that
there may be concert of action on
the part of the voters, caucus
for the purpose should be held
previous to the day of election.
After the polls are closed, a
business meeting of the voters of
the district should be called to
order and conducted according TO
parliamentary usage, the same as
any other public meeting. At
this time it is in order to consider
and act upon any question pertain
ing TO the interest of the district,
including the matter of special
tax, building schoolhouse, free
text books, etc., and any person
qualified to vote for director is
qualified to vote on any question
submitted, save the question of
bonded Indebtedness or creating a
debt by loan, which questions may
be brought before the people only
in the manner prescribed by law,
and voted on only by those quali-
fed electors who paid a school tax
in the district during the preceed-
ing year.
The question of a special tax
should not be balloted on at the
time of balloting for directors, but
should be presented at the bust
ness meeting, and determined by
viva voce vote.-Castle Rock
Journal.

GRASSES FOR
THE ARID PLAINS

We are informed from Wash
ington that considerable success
has attended the efforts of Secre-
tary Wilson 10 introduce grasses
that will thrive upon the arid
plains of the West. A variety
from the steppes of Russia, known
to scientists as bromus inermus,
which was imported last year by
the department of agriculture, has
stood a six months drought in
California without losing a plant.
With the return of rain the plants
Immediately revived and took on a
luxurious growth, which reached
the height of two feet. Tho roots
of this Russian grass penetrate the
soil TO a considerable depth in
search Of moisture, and for that
reason it can survive a drought
that would burn up any grass
heretofore known TO the West.
The experts of the department
have other grasses under expert
ment, and il is probable they will
succeed in transforming much of
the arid wastes into grazing lands.
To assist in accomplishing this
result the secretary advocates the
renting of lands in the arid re-
gions. He desires the co>opera-
tion of grazers, who are now
to the preservation of
the lands and will do nothing to
improve them. Denver News.

MAN SHOT

R. j. Gwillim, a ranchman,
was accidentally shot by his son
Monday morning, but was not
seriously injured. The two were
killing a dog, supposed to have
the rabies, and the animal bit
young Gwillim in the hand. The
pistol he was holding was dis
charged, and the bullet grazed his
fathers nose. Two weeks ago a
mad dog appeared in that neigh
borhood. 1t bit two other dogs,
which have been killed.
