DANIEL OF GRAND AND TRAVERSE
Il JURORS drawn to the october Term. 1907
commencing on the lst Monday, being the 7th
tlay of the month.
The log cabin Democrat., 1907-07-04

had each subscribed $Io, 900 and that one citizen had subscribed S2o, 900 to secure the normal for Benton.
 The truth of she business is that Conway wanted to bid every cent possible for the normal. If we could have, in the time allowed every town by the board, raised S75, 900, we would just as freely have put in our bid at that figure. The amount of Conway's bid, S5I,753, was arrived at in this way: All executive committee was appointed to canvass the list of subscriptions and carefully consid- CT what might afterwards be raised and put in our bid upon that basis. At the meeting of this committee the whole matter was thoroughly discussed, and it was finally decid- ed to allow each committeeman to vote as to the highest amount which Tn his opinion 1t would be possible to raise in cash within sixty days, in accordance with the rules laid down by the normal board. This was done and the average of these opinions was found to be S5I,753, which amount was put in as our bid.
 There was certainly no trickery in this method, and to publicly charge it without giving any facts to substantiate the charge will doubtless court but1ittle favor with the members of the board.
 In contrast with the Times Courier statements is the follow ing paragraph from the Fort Smith Elevator:
 Fort Smith hopes to capture the plum, but failing to secure 1t will feel satisfied that the board acted for the best interests of the state.
