GOOD THING FOR AMEs.
College and Town to Have Free Mai
Delivery.

Special to Times Republican,.
Alnes. March 11.-Ames is to be num-
bered among the smaller cities of the
state that will be honored with free
city delivery. The postmaster has not
given out anything about this matter
as not until Sunday did he have pos
tive assurance that it was to be in
augurated. The stories in the dailies
were drawn largely from imagina ton,
based upon the fact that an inspector
had visited Ames for the purpose of
making Investigations in the matter.
Postoftice Inspector Stewart did visit
Ames, several weeks since, laid out
the routes and located the collection
boxes. The postmaster has received
word, not directly from the depart
ment, but from one who is in a position
to know, that the service would be
established June /. The recommends
tons are for two carriers, and a sub
station at the college. A request has
been made to the department. that we
he allowed three carriers and the sub
station at the college. 1t is quite likely
that this request will be complied with,
IL not at once, in the near future We
are assured OF two carriers and a sub
station at the college the first of June.
The sub-station will be a big ac-
commodation to the college people as
it will transact money order and reg
istry business, the same as the main
office.
This will not only be big conven-
fence to the people of Ames, but it will
also be an advertisement for the town.
as there is not a small city in Iowa
with no greater population than Ames
that is honored with free city deliv
cry. The proposition of free city de-
livery is based on the postal receipts
of the Office, and, as the receipts of
the Ames postoff1ce this year are run
ming way ahead of last year, there
was little trouble in bringing the matter
to a head when the application was
made for it by the postmaster.

FOR BETTER SCHOOLS.

Montezuma Votes Bond Issue for Inn
proving the High School Building.
Special to Times Republican.
Montezuma, March 1.-THE school
election Monday passed off quietly as
far as candidates for the Office of df-
rectors was concerned. The elections
eering was all on the question OF issu-
ing bonds to build a large addition to
the high school building.
Montezuma. like most other towns,
has a lot of old men who are not per-
sonally interested in the schools: that
is, have no children to attend school,
and they vote almost to man to stop
Improvement of school facilities. 1t only
touches their pockets. They worked
against the proposed bond issue, but
of the 227 votes cast 172 We're in favor
of the issue of bonds and fifty-seven
against.
The word had been we'll circulated
that ladies We're entitled to a vote on
the bond question, but only forty-siX
voted. 1t is said that forty-five of
them voted for and one against the is
sue of bonds, but how any one knows
how they voted is not known to your
correspondent.
The success of this question is an
endorsement of Professor Douglas, as it
is at his urgent request that the mat
ter was submitted to the voters, and
his work in our schools deserves the
endorsement of all the patrons.

House
DEPOSITED WITH TREASURER
Town of Britt Makes Good in it's Fight

Britt, Iowa, March 1.-THE Britt
court house committee today deposit
ed With the treasurer of Hancock
county, Iowa, at Concord, Iowa, 100000
in cold cash as a guarantee of their
promise to build and deliver free of all
expense whatsoever to Hancock coun-
ty, court house and block of ground
complete in every detail, ready for oc-
cupancy in Britt, Iowa, providing the
voters of said county vote to relocate
sition is not one with string 10 it,
but Britt is in dead earnest and they
have deposited this $4,000 in cash as
a guarantee of good faith, and that
their promise will be fulfilled to the
letter.
BY readers who have kept in touch
with the Hancock county seat fight,
which has been going on for the past
five years. it will be remembered that
all Britt has asked for is. relocation
by the vote of the people, to either
Britt or Garner. and that in case it is
relocated in Britt, the court house shall
be furnished to the county free of
charge by said town. This vote, how
ever, to decide the relocation, has not
been agreed to by the Garner people
for the reason that they fear they may
be defeated and thereby lose their
cherished county seat which is now at
Concord, mile and a quarter south OF
Garner.
Garner went TO work and built a.,
building to be used for a court house
and attempted to move the county seat
bodily from Concord to Garner, but an
injunction was served on them by Britt
and the matter was carried to the
state supreme court in which deci-
sion was rendered preventing the
seat to be relocated at Garner
and that in order to make a relocation
it would have to be submitted to a
vote of the people.
Garner has been telling the farmers
and people in that vicinity that Britt
couldn't raise the money, but now that
the actual cash has been deposited with
The treasurer at Concord. there VIII no
onger be any doubt as to Britt's good
'aith in making its promise and prop
,sition good to the letter. Britt is the
argest town in the county, and in the
raphical center and in every way
more suitable for a county seat than
Garner, or any other town in the Goun-
~.
