and it is difficult to tell whether il
is an ordinance for revenue or ono
bidding for popularity and the
ring. The exorbitant rate in
some legitimate industries have
been lowered, while on the ille-
gitimato the rate has been more
than cut in two. This will with

essary to open new room in theI

OF room. lie said that there were at
least thirty-fOur Out-Of-tOwn pupils
now occupying seats in the school, and
II they Ware removed there would be
ample room for all city pupils.
Mr.. ODOnnel said he favored keep
ing Wilmington schools for Whining

is over he intended to Offer n rcsOlu-
ton to that effect
Mr. Fraim was utterly opposed to al
lowing out-of-town children to occupy
seats in the schools and made a motion
to the effect that all such students be
notified to vacate after this week 10

tion. lie said tina every child going

told how a teacher at Rising Sun once
