library and Office in the present
building, together with an addi-
tional recitation room Included In
the Improvement, would have to be
used to make room for an additional
stairway, while one OF the other reci-
tation rooms would have to be used
for a library and board room. This
would leave but three class rooms
and one recitation room, all of which
would have to be used during the
coming year, leaving the schools in
almost the same overcrowded condi-
tion at the close OF the ensuing year.
This would undoubtedly mean that
additional money would have to be
expended for school room next year.
The Board of Education has there
fore deemed 1t unw wise to spend 3d.
500 in the remodeling OF the present
building, but instead would recon-
mend the addition OF new building,
but connected with the present
uuioiu6.
If the Board is authorized at the
special meeting Of the voters called
for August 7th, to make new bond
issue for a two story addition to the
present building, then they'll cancel
the issue OF $13. 500 authorized, and
II not empowered to make new
issue Of bonds, the only thing to do
would be to proceed with the alter
ations contemplated, no matter how
unsatisfactory the result might be
1t is the desire OF the Board of Edu-
cation to have the presence of a
large number of the voters on next
Wednesday evening, to weigh care
fully the proposition presented, and
to express your views on the same.

The Senate Committee on Foreign

treaty at its meeting this morning.
All the Republicans of the commit

favorable report. The Democrats
generally opposed it. The only ex-

Senator Morgan of Alabama, who
was allowed to vote by letter, az
he was sick at his home. He sus-
tanned the treaty.
The only modification made in the
treaty by the committee was suggested
by Senator Morgan in his letter. 1t was
the elimination of a provision tn the
effect that the American collectors of
customs for Santo Domingo should he

the Senate. The point was made that
