It ix a Gnod Thing.

Everyone should be glad 10 say good word for an article that deserves it, which accounts for the universal endorsement of the Sterling Remedy Co, makers of the famous Cascarets. Within five years the sale of Cascarets has grown from single box until last year it reached the enormous sale of over 6,000,000 boxesy This is hsats ter of pride to newspaper men because Gas carets has been very largely and persistent ly advertised in newspapers for number of years, and it shows that advertising of the right kind will certainly bring success. All druggists report an enormous demand for Cascarets that is steadily increasing They are put up in convenien t'form andsthe prices are l0c., 25c., and 50c. a box, A 50c. box is enough for one. months treatment, Anyone who has the slightest liver or bowel trouble is urged to give them trial 1@D

The Siockyard Naisssce.

The time has come whom the
citizens of Monte Vista feel that
the stock yards should be moved
to the suburbs Of tho city. The
town has No far extended enst that
thcse yards are now near ~ en-.
ter Of tho town. The cattle busi.
ness has grown To such IAN extent
that large lunches fill the streets,
impede travel, cut up the roads
and are great annoyance to the
public. And ns n sanitary matter
these yards should Ike moved.
Monte Vista. generally speaking
has II neat and thrifty appearance
and is the pride Of its citizens.
These stockyards. situated Us

NORMAL SCHOOL
DISCUSSION.

DIR. L. c. Spencer has plan
for inaugurating new school sys-
tenn which, being presented to the
school board, was favored to such
al extent that the board called n
mass meeting Monday night to
discuss the matter. DR.. Spencer's
plan is to enlarge his residence on
Jefferson street for private nor
NAL school building by adding Il
second story; have the school
elect him IA superintendent of the
public schools of the city and al
low him to name the..teachers.
This scheme was looked upon
by those present as gong back on
our public school system and of
farming the same out to a private
enterprise and those who do not
feel like surrendering the manage,
ment of public utilities to private
concerns were strongly opposed to
eht proposition.
The first bait thrown out by the
president Of the school board was
the saving of expense, but under a
sharp cross examination by Law
yer Stephenson the saving disap.
peared. One item in the way of
saving WAS that Prof. Spencer
could hire teachers cheaper than u
school board. Ii this be true, it
would signify that the distric,
ought to turn ont next Monday
and elect better business man
than We now seem TO have.
Gen. Bloomfield raised the point
that the laws aud the constitution
