URGENT NEED FOR A
NEW SCHOOL BUILDING
NOW BEING DISCUSSED BY THE CITIZENS
OF PROSPERITY.
Another Meeting This Afternoon to Hear
Committee Report Statement OfPros-
perity'S Financial Condition.

The citizens Of School District
No. Id, i'll which is comprised the
town of Prosperity, met in the
school building at Prosperity on
Tuesday afternoon to discuss the
matter of new school building.
The attendance was very small.
After very little discussion the mat
ter was referred to a committee
which will report to an adjourned
meeting to be held in the school
building next Tuesday afternoon at
3 o'clock.
The matter of new school build
ing has been agitated in Prosperity
tor several years past. A little
more than a year ago an election
was held on the question of voting
bonds to the amount of $1,000 for
this purpose but the bond issue
failed by very narrow majority.
The old building in which the
meeting was held ON Tuesday after
noon is sufficient argument for a
new building, 1t is all old wooden
structure i'll dangerous locality,
being situated just against the
Columbia, Newberry and Laurens
railroad track. 1t has long Since
served its use and is a structure in
which neither pupils nor patrons
nor citizens of the town generally
can take any pride whatever.
The citizens OF the district arc
practically agreed that a new build
ing IS needed. Some, however,
want the money raised III one Wav.
s. me want it raised in another
while some think it will cost too
much TO erect a new building;
taking the position that what was
good enough for the fathers is good
enough for the children and will be
good enough for generations We,
unborn. The result of the election
mentioned above showed that those
i'll favor Of a bond issue lacked onlv
little OF being in majority.
The meeting of citizens on Tues
day afternoon, called to discuss the
matter, was called to order by DR..
c. II. Wychc, of the board Of trus-
tees, who stated the object of the
meeting. DIR. Wyche was chosen
chairman and Mr.. B. B. Schumpert
secretary.
DR.. Wvche briefly outlined the
three plans by which the money for
new building could be raised IS.
by private subscription; end, by
lcvying a 2-mill tax; sd, by bono
issue.
Personally, he favored the issue
OF bonds because he thought it the
easiest and most equitable way. I.
a bond issue were decided upon
however, immediate action shoult
be taken because the legislature wa.

ROAD
MEETING
Street Car Company Will Ex-
tend Line to Liberty

Next Saturday afternoon there will
be a meeting at the office of the Sa-
lem Abstract & Land Company, in
the First National Bank building, at
o'clock, of the new managers of the
Citizens Light G. Traction Company,
and number of the residents along
the line of the proposed electric exten-
sion to Liberty. ogo over the matter
of securing the necessary subsidy and
the building of the car line. The new
managers of our stret car company
heartily endorse the proposition of
getting this line 70 Liberty, and will
do everything to facilitate its con.
struction.
Cooperation is necessary, and it
will be to the interest of the residents
along the line, and those living at
Liberty and Rosedale 1.-TWO miles
further south), to be present at this
meeting for organized work. The car
line company must know what the
people out that way can do, and what
they are willing to do, and what they
WILL do, before attempting to build.
The handling of the fruit crops and
other products, and the possibility of
good passenger service must be
considered
1t is presumed that the road will,
of itself, after being built, create a
great deal of traffic since it will fur
nish the opportunity of reaching the
market quicker, cheaper and on sched-
ule time. Notice of the meeting has
been sent to a number of the sub
stantial citizens at Liberty, and in
that vicinity, and it is expected that
,lefinite will result.

.TRIsurE TO JUDGE DEE.

T HE FACT that Judge Thomas d.
Dee of Ogden, though a Democrat,
would have been nominated for the
board Of education by a Republican
convention if the call for the conven-
ton had not distinctly specified that a
Republican candidate must be nomi-
mated is higher tribute to Judge Dee
than any words could be. A majority
Of the delegates to the convention
favored his Nomination. only the
hard and fast specification in the call
prevented it. It is entirely probable
that most Of the Republicans in the
convention and in the ward where
Judge Dee resides, will vote for him at
the polls, for he will certainly be
nominated by the Democrats.
In spite of the politicians it is en-
tirely probable that ogden viii have
non-partisan school election, after
all. Judge Dee, at any rate. is sure to
be elected, for no man has done more
for the Ogden schools than has he
Ever since the organization of the
Ogden board of education he has been
connected with it and his work has
been invaluable. As a testimonial to
his worth a school building was named
in his honor and at the recent dedica-
ton of the structure all OF the partici-
pants in the ceremonies took occasion
to pay tributes to Judge Dee.
And well they might. Though he is
man of large property and business in
terests, though his time is valuable on
account of his private business.
Judge Dee has always found the time
TO attend to his school duties. When
such men as he are willing to sacrifice
their time and their energy for the
benefit of the public the public can
not show its appreciation too plainly
