A STATEMENT
From the Board of Trustees o
,f Eureka School District.


In order that tho public may know
all the facts concerning the punish
ment of Horton McKim, the Board OF
Trustees submits the following state.
ment:
The Board of Trustees deem tltis ac

statements OF Mr.. Butler and Miss Wit
tenberg at the same Board meeting are
given below.
At the opening OF the meeting OF the
Board, the Principal stated that the
teachers had nothing to say unless Mr.
McKim desired to make some charges
to the Board, and n that event the
teachers stood ready to answer them.
Mr.. McKim made the charge that
the teachers had willfully and mali
ciously beaten his boy through spite
and metnness.
The Principal replied to the charge
OF Mr.. McKim by saying it had been
his purpose to treat all pupils in school
with absolute fairness and justice, with
ca ual rights to alland special privileges
to none. He saidit made no difference
whether IL be the son Of ths poor or the
wealthy, the great or the small, they
