BUNKER HILL SCHOOL

 lBSsxed ls WsisrvIlIs.

lb Lntb uecihTdtioH oi war UT bAIn- ply an, expression of opinion? The Bunker Hill school district met last night and took action regarding the the attitude of the board of aldermen relative to the proposed change of Fairmount from the Bunker Hill school district to the Waterville school district, so that the children of Fairmount may be permitted to attend the Waterville school, which Is quite near them, while the other Is. comparatively speaking, long way on, and parents don't like the risk of having their little ones go over tho railroad crossing in addition to the hardship of the long walk, especially in the winter season.
 The matter has been before the city. boards for some time. When the aldermen got ready to act the matter was referred to committee consist ing of Aldermen Spain, Gallagher and Larkin, who went on the ground. talked with the people directly con- cerned, and made favorable report, which was approved and thereupon the clerk was instructed to give the two school districts the fifteen days notice required by law. The Bunker Hill people met to consider the propo- sition and after exchanging opinions 1t was defeated by vote of IS to 16. The principal objection raised against making a change was founded upon something else in it. Fairmount is only fair to conclude that there was osmething else in it. Fairmount Is an ideal residence district and in the near future 1t will be dotted with homes and the income from the dis trIct will be considerable. The Bun ker Hill people are far seeing enough to know this and naturally they don't want to lose the territory. On the other hand Fairmount people are thoroughly aroused and claim that If they are obliged to send their children a mile and a half or two miles to school while they can be accommodate ed nearer home, they will fight. The next move will have to be made by the aldermen, and if they stand on the position taken when the report was submitted to them they will or der the change and then 1t will be up to Bunker Hill to submit or go to the courts. The spirit of '61 Is still ram- pant all through Bunker Hill and if they decide to take up arms 1t is not unreasonable to believe that they will repeat the achievement won at Bun ker Hill in revolutionary times or die in the trenches. But they are not anxious to precipitate row. On the contrary they come forward with the olive branch in the form of an offer to build a two room school at Fair mount for the accommodation of the children of that district. But this is not satisfactory to Fairmount and the aldermen will be asked to order the territory annexed to Waterville.
 It was a close call at the meeting It is said that MT Bronson, who pre- sided, is in favor of the change, but he didn't vote at all, so with his bal lot it would have been. IS to IT. It is also said that few very strong advocates of looping of Fairmount were not in attendance. and their friends cannot account for their ab- snnce

Atlanta to the Front Again.

They have a nice mess over in At
lanta just now. Jas. G.. Woodward,
recently nominated for mayor in the
Democratic primary, got drunk and
made a spectacle of himself in the
disreputable quarter of the city a
few days ago, and mass meeting of
citizens has been held and nominated
R. F. Maddox a prominent citizen
and banker, to make the race for
mayor against Woodward in the gen
eral election. The mass meeting was
representative one, and it seems
that at last the decent element of the
city are aroused to the necessity of
retiring men of the stamp of Wood
ward. This same man has been may
or of Atlanta before, and has dis
graced the city by his actions more
than once 1t is to be hoped that
Maddox will be elected.

Killed by College Student.

Anniston, Ala, November Sin
a fight at Edwardsville last night
James Vaughan, college student shot
and instantly killed Jackson Barker
and wounded Elber Jones and Bart
Mccormick. Jones wound may make
amputation of the right arm necess-
ary., Mccormick suffered only a
slight wound. Barker was shot
through the heart three times. I'M
mediately after the shooting Vaughan
was placed on a train and brought to
Admission, where he was placed in jail
for safe keeping. Feeling was high
in Edwardsville and it was thought
that an effort might be made to lynch
Vaughan should he be placed in the
Hefin jail. The fight grew out OF a
difficulty on election day which re-
suited in the destruction of the Gala
boose by friends of Barker, who was
arrested by Vaughan, a special dep
>uty.

DIDN'T PLEASE MINISTER'S.
Spartanburg Preachers to Register
Protest Against Fair.

Spartanburg, November THAT
the Ministerial Union of Spartanburg
and the faculty of Wofford College
are not pleased with the Spartanburg
County Fair, which closed last night,
there can be no doubt, for a meeting
of the ministers has been called for
Monday afternoon, and the professors
of Wofford and the male teachers OF
the city schools have been invited to
attend. 1t is said that the preachers
are opposed to the shows that were
on the Midway and against the book
making at the race track, and resolu-
tions will be passed asking that the
city and county authorities put stop
to the proceedings next year. DR..
Snyder, of Wofford College, refused to
allow the College Y. M. C. A. to play
a basket ball team yesterday morning
because he did not approve of the
Fair.
The management of the Fair claim
that the Church people and College
professors are straining at gnat and
swallowing camel for the ladies' So
cieties of several churches of the city
operated lunch counters and restau-
rants on the Midway and raked in
money from the crowds at the Fair.
Furthermore, the directors ofthe Fair
claim that they did not receive the
proper support from the merchants
and citizens of Spartanburg in giving
a Fair, that if the general public had
subscribed to the finances, they would
have been able to give much better
show. The indications are that there
will be a lively fight between the
preachers and the stockholders of
the Fair. The general opinion is that
the few men who put on the Fair in
the face of much opposition deserve
great credit for their success.

Cotton Report.

Washington, November S.-The
worlds production of cotton for mill
consumption during the year ending
August 81, 1908, exceeded by $780,
900 bales the production of the pre-
vious year, according to the census
bureaus report on the supply and
distribution of cotton. 1t is signifi-
cant. fact, thes report shows, that the
Quotations in the worlds supply of
cotton is measured practically by the
variations in the annual production
in the United States.
If the consumption of cotton in
1909 equals that in 1908 the United
States, it is declared, must contribute
about 100000 bales to prevent
further decrease in stocks. The num-
Der of cotton spindles in this country
is 27,964,3S7, the distribution among
the States giving Massachusetts "a
per cent, South Carolina 13 per cent,
and North Carolina II per cent.
Rhode Island ranks fourth in the list.
The number OF spindles has increas-
ed % per cent. in the last eight years
and the consumption of cotton "a per
cent.
The annual reports of mannfac-
lures of cotton are declared to be
subject to wide fluctuations, those
for 1908 amounting to $25,177,75S
or less than one-half the value of ex-
ports for 1906, which aggregated in
value more than s50,0O0,000. The
reduction is due to the selling off Of
the exnorts to China. An interesting
fact to producers is that the total cot
ton supply of the country for 1908,
amounting to 4,449,300 bales, "a per
cent, was consumed in the United
States.

PENDLETON SALOON BUSINESS
% HARD HIT.
Umatilla County Goes DRY and
40 Saloons Must Cose Up
by July l.

PENDLETQN. June 5.-By the
vote of the prohibitionists making
Umatilla county dry, % saloons in
Pendleton, having 100000 invested
H. fixtures and stocks, will go out of
business on July /, says the East
Oregonian.
A conservative estimate OF the
amount invested in saloon property
In this city PAGES the value Of the
fixtures at $1,000 each and the value
of stocks at $4,000, making a grand
total of $105,000. A number of sa-
loon men own their property, which
will not be loss. but which will
be used for some other purpose.
BY the terms of the local option
law the saloons must be closed with.
Ia 80 days after the election in
which the county or precinct is de
clared to be dry. and consequently
on the morning of the July 1, 1908
the doors of 40 saloons in this coun.
ty will be closed and locked and the
stocks packed for shipment to the
wholesale houses or to other coun.
ties, where many of the liquor mer
of this county will continue the
business.
Naturally the saloon men are pes
simistic over the result of the cleo
|tion, and while many of them are
renters and can move away and en-
gage in business elsewhere, yet man,
of them are home owners and have
large sums invested in city proper
ty and must remain here until the!
can dispose of their interests. Man!
Of them will continue to reside herr
and will engage in other business
and will lose nothing by the abolish
ing of the liquor business in tn
county

WILL REOPEN MORNING MINE.
Means Employment for 400 Addi-
tional Men.

WALLACE, Ida, juno 5.-The
people of Mullan are highly elated
over the order received by Superin-
Charles X. Cartwright of
the Morning mine to at once start
up the mine and mill in all its de-
partments. This means employment
for about 400 men, but as men quail
flied to work in the mines are some
what scarce at present, many having
gone to other parts since the closing
of the mine, it is probable that 1t
will be some time before the COM
pany will be shipping ore in the
quantity it did before the shutdown.
A number of men have been EN-
ployed for some time in putting
things in proper shape in the mine
and mill, and it is all ready to start
as soon as the men can be secured.
Last year the Morning mine
shipped 297,50O tons of crude ore,
valued at $1,4s7.325.22. The cost
of taking out the ore was $780,
1880 and of reduction and sale
$512,4S1.78. improvements were
made during the year amounting to
$70,S34.76, leaving net profit of
$2S3,S77.08.

TACOMA, June 5.-Whether
Chester Thompson will be released
in q few days or remain in custody
for perhaps six or eight months,
pending an appeal on the part Of
the state at large, may not be known
FOR several days. Prosecuting Attor-
ney Rowland this morning moved

son, father of Chester, rose to his
feet to reply, Judge William H. Smell
said:
Il don't care to hear anything
further on this question. There is
nothing to retry this case on and
cannot grant new trial"
Prosecutor Rowland then served
notice Of appeal to the supreme court
of the state, but whether he will
prosecute that appeal or not is un-
certain. 1t is known that his assis-
tant, Attorney Davis, is opposed to
the taking of the matter to the SUI
preme court, as the state, in the
opinion Of all who heard the case.

appeal would simply be the expendi-
ture Of close to $1,000, with no other
result than keeping the boy. de-
