The motive of the democrats
of the county in putting up a
Legislative ticket alone is pretty
generally understood to mean
that an effort will be made to
defeat the republican candidates
for the legislature, and that the
democrats are in hopes of secur-
ing enough republican votes to
accomplish this. 1t will be well
for the republicans of the county
to be on their guard against this
thing. A fair and honorable
vote was secured for the nom
nations on the republican ticket,
and clean, properly qualified men
were selected. and no reasonable
excuse can be presented by any
republican for refusing to give
the regular nominees of the par
ty his vote and hearty support.

making the school work success
ful and inviting the parents to
get into closer touch with the
teachers and their work. He
believed that this could be done

there represented, and much
useless friction avoided. In his
remarks the superintendent gave
a number of pleasing illustra-
tions OF the practical use Of child
study, and suggested that per-
manent organization be effected.
With this object Mrs. G. A. Wood
was elected president and Mrs.
Henry Schafer vice president.

ishment' by parents and teach

Love of the Highlander was greatly
surprised and profoundly shocked last
night by telegram which came to
him at midnight from Capt. }. Z.

nothing is known here as to the orig
