The Raleigh people will vote
the day after Christmas, Decem-
Der 26th, on the question of
whether the dispensary is to be
retained or,whether thereshall be
prohibition. Twenty-four years
ago Raleigh was a dry town. At
that time the sale of liquor was
allowed in the country and there
were seven saloons on the very
edge of the township and they
did a rushing business. 1t is
claimed by the prohibition ele-
ment that it is dead sure to win
and that the petition for an cleo
ton shows this. On the other
hand the advocates for the dis
pensary think that institution
will be retained. Of course a
number of very sharp attacks on
the dispensary have been made
and there is no little feeling
against it in all circles. Cover
nor Glenn has taken occasionsev-
eral times to criticise it sharply.
1t is felt even by its advocates
that it by no manner of means is
a good institution. One of them
a year or two ago spoke of it as
a necessary evil.
It is very hard to say now
what will happen in this election.
OF course the work will be done
by the prohibition people, as very
naturally the advocates of the
dispensary cannot take the field
Raleigh is to be given the benefit
of a regular campaign which
will be terminated Sunday even
ing, Christmas day. Rev. Syl'
vester Belts, who is at the heaC
of the movement and has beer
from the start, says the meet
: ings are to be held Christmas
: day at many Of the churches anc
that during the campaign there
are to be street meetings day anc
= night at many quarters in tn
} place. and the canvass will be a
lively as the one four years ag'
in favor of the dispensary foI
which so many church people
then worked so hard.

]. w. Allen, riyhtwatchman
for the Pearl Cotton mill, at
tempted suicide Friday after
noon by drinking laudanum. He
was discovered in time so that
he was saved with a hard fight
by the physicians. Saturday it
was reported that the patient
was getting along as well as
could be expected, and in fact
that he was out of danger.
The story is this: That Allen,
who bears the same initials of
the member of the board of coun-
ty commissioners and also a prin-
ter by the same name, did not
show up at his work for a week.
When he did show up fer
duty on Friday night, but in
stead went to his home and there
he drank a bottle of laudanum
that would have been fatal for
him and fatal in ordinary cir
cumstances, but Allen was saved.
A doctor was summoned very
soon and when he assaved from
himself he was left in a very
weak condition.
It seems that this man Allen
has been on general booze fol-
some weeks, in fact for months.
When he was watching and al
his right self he was a good man
and when he was off his balance
he was not a fit person to guide
himself. He had recently beer
off on a booze for a week and
when he returned it was with the
rumors of consciousness that
makes a person to attempt the
rash step of self destruction.
Last reports from ]. W. Aller
were that he was getting along
in fine shape and that he would
be able to go back on work soon

Board of Education Orders Schools
Closed in Durham December 20.

Board of Education Orders Schools
Closed in Durham December 20.
a The schools of the county will
close for Christmas holidays on
Friday afternoon, December 20,
and will remain closed until Mon
day, December 80. This was de-
cided by the board of education
yesterday and the closing time
of the schools for the Christmas
holiday season will he an inter-
esting piece of information tothis
school children throughout the
county. 1t will also be of more
than passing interest to many of
the teachers, who do not as yet
know when their fall work will
end.
There was an adjourned ses-
sion of the county board of edu-
cation. This was decided at the
last meeting and while there
were numerous matters to come
before the board there was moth
ing of more general Importance
and interest than the order in re-
gard to the closing of the school
for Christmas.
The adjourned session was held
for the purpose of Strengthening
out many matters that had been
left over at the last regular meet
ing. There was the question of
the finances for the fall term to
go over and also the question as
to the new funds that will soon
be coming in for school purposes.
The local tax question, now so
interesting throughout the coun-
ty, was also discussed in a gener-
al way by the board. These
men who have at heart the in
terest of the school work of the
county, and who know the value
of a local school tax in any dis
trict are heartily in favor of the
local tax propositions that are
now before the people in several
sections.
At the afternoon session of the
board, almost Immediately after
the meeting had been called to
order the question of when the
schools should close came up. 1t
was the opinion of the board
that the schools should not re-
main closed too long and the mo-
ton was then made and carried
that the schools close on Decem-
ber 80 and remain until Monday,
80, just ten days.
The board has decided to look
into the matter of opening a
school at Willardsville, where is
located the Little River Manu-
featuring company. The people
that want a school and have
agreed to assist if the board
will appropriate something like
S25 per month for salary. The
special committeeman, Mr.. J.
W. Umstead is to report back at
the regular meeting in nDecember.
During the afternoon num-
J ber of routine matters came be-
fore the board. The members OF
board expressed great interest in
the outcome of the local tan
} elections soon to be held in the
: Redwood and in the Glenn dis
} tricts. The reports that the
elections will pass in both dis
tricts and that the tax will b.

him a whack across a log, which

One of our neighbors owned a
dog by the name of pot liquor
and he strayed of to Mr.. Bar

to the dining room and stuck
his head into the coffee pot,
which contained a hole in the
bottom and he was enabled to
look through this hole and make
his escape. However, .he came
back to the same place and tried
the same trick, but this time he
found that all coffee pots did not
have holes in the bottom, and
from what can be learned the
dog came TO his end as he could
not see how TO make his escape.

Iowa has suffered a decrease

Iowa has suffered a decrease
of population of 5 per cent in
the past five years. In the past
10 years, it has had a greater
decrease than any other state
in the union.
This is not a decrease of the
city population but of the rural
districts. Out of the 80 coun-
ties in the state, only % showed
an increase in population. In
practically all OF these there
was one or more large cities or
towns.
The last census of the state
shows the rural population of
Iowa in 1900 as l,404, 1:34. In
1905 it was 1,33l,dl9. In 1900.
the population of towns Of
from 1000 to 5000 was 265, O21.
In 1905 it was 3AS, 143. In 1900
the population of cities of 5000
or more was 462, SOS. In 1905
it was 530,4SS. These figures
show that the movement of
population has been from the
country to the city.
