Increase of School Tax Asked
by School Board


An important and we'll. ATTENDED
meeting Of the County Schco'
Board Of Rockbridge was held Sat
urday last in the Courthouse fol
the purpose of recommending tC
the Board. of Supervisors what
amount of county and district
levies wonld be needed to success
fully conduct the public schools
of Rockbridge for the year 1906-O7.
After thorough discussion of
the situation, majority Of the
board thought an increase in the
school funds was necessary. At
meeting of the board May 20, 1905,
they recommended to the super
visorG that the extraordinary levy
Of 123 cents and the same amount
for the district levy be asked for.
An increase OF cents on these
amounts was asked for and passed,
making the county and the dis
trict tax III cents, respectively, on
the 500 of real and personal
property.
South River. Buffalo and Kerr's
Greek districts were importunass
in their demands that the dissent
ing districts should come over and
join them, az they needed and
must have a little more money. 1t
was highly important that the
school levies should be uniform in
amounts asked for. 1t was the
concensus of opinion that teachers
had 20 be paid more if their ser
vices were to be retained. Under
the iron clad rule that now pre-
walls, principals Of graded schools
are only paid $35 month; first
grade teachers, $50; second grade,
S25; third grade, $3.50. Teach
ers are scarce, and it was thought
they could not be counted on for
next year unless their salaries were
increased.
An early date for the election of |
teachers was decided on by the
board. The time fixed was Sstur-
day, June 0th. The examination
for teachers will take place the
3rd, 4th and 9Th of May, and
ample time would thus be given to
teachers to look elsewhere for
positions if they were not elected
at their fret application.
District boards were granted the
of saying what salaries
should be paid teachers, and what
should be the length of their terms.
The sentiment, however, favored
increased salaries and the length
ming Of school terms wherever
Iuch desirable changes were prac-
;icable.
There were present at the meet
ng Superintendent G. w. EfIlnger,
Who presided, and fourteen trus-
;ees, as follows; Messrs. G. j.
Bell, F. L. McClung, w, G. Hous-
ON. John A. Shaw, j. Samuel

Compliment to Mr.. Flood

SaVOyari, VINO writes on 1hingS
political from Washington, pays
tho following compliment in Satur-
days Ricbmo nd Journal tc Cen
gresham H. D. Flood, who repre-
sents tho Tenth District:
hear excellent reports OF the
capacities Of Henry D. Flood Of
Virginia. . He iS the grandson Of
Charles j.. Faulkner, and the
nepew Of Senator Faulkner, who
was chairman Of the Democratic
Congressional Committee in 1876,
and thus he wRJ born into the
WORK Of politics. He got his train
ing as an organizer from John S.
Barbour, the best Democratic field
captain the party ever had with
the singleeeIceptiOn Of Mr.. Tilden.
Barbour was a master Of detail.
He never trusted to chance. He
organized from the school district
up. He got out the vote. He car
ried the day. When he wac in
comm and the party never lost an
election in his bailiWick by the
"stay at home vote" Flood got
his views Of political management
from John S. Barbour, and it iS
not at all likely that there will be
another Democratic Congress in
this town until the congressional
Campaign Committee puts into
operation Bnrbour's method of or
gAnization.

Free Delivery of Mail

Joy. Harrisonburg and other smaller

Why can't We have.
Now that our postoffice ls attracting

The Horse Marker Dull

The horse market Monday was con =.
sidered dull, although q number OF
animals were offered for sale. Some
few out of town buyers were here, but
they seemed to think the prices asked
for horses we're too high, hence they did
not invest largely. The character OF
the horses offered was somewhat below
the average, and in consequence the
prices obtained were not as hlgn as
formerly. Prices ranged from $50 to
more than $3.50 for tho best offerings,
while inferior animals changed hands
at considerably less.
