Interesting Election Contest.

volved.
The electors in the school board con.
tests are designated as moderates or pro.
gressives, the former, generally speaking,
being the churchmen and conservatives,
and the latter the liberals and noncom-
for1 lists. The moderates, largely under
the influence of the church elements re-
sent everything that tends to increase the
expense of the secular schools, as they
have to support church schools, such as
are built and administered by the school
board. They are opposed to the common
schools on principle except in the most
rudimentary branches of education. and
they have perpetually before them the
threat of the progressives to introduce,
as soon as possible, high schools into the
public regime. The present board has
buslt many new schools and spent law
ishly in the way OF improvements under
progressive direction with the result
that today the London elementary
school system is in finer condition and
much further advanced than ever before
1t is the hope of the moderates to defeat
the progressives at the polls today and
thereby prevent the present system of
educational development from going for
ward. There are 95 candidates in the
field for the 55 seats to be filled, 43 Of the
nominees being present members of the
board who have been renominated.

The Inaugural Bali.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7o.-A movement
has been started among the citizens Of
the capital city to build special hall
for the second Mckinley Inauguration
ball. The pension Office, which has
heretofore been used, has been declared
inadequate; as the crowd is expected to
be much larger than the great corridor of
the building large as it is, can accom-
modate. lfa special hall is built it is
probable that the immense floor space of
the census building will be utilized. The
expenditure for refitting and decoration
will reach thousands of dollars. The
census building has two great one story
wings, with an arched roof of glass. BY
removing temporary partitions the two
great rooms, without columns of obstruc-
tions, make the hall the size of a large
city block 1t is estimated that the floor
will accommodate 500 couples, while
large corridors would be available for
promenading.
