 The board had asked fer &-e.5ao fur the schools. This amount the council would give after dedueting lhe sum ef S3ooO alleged ta have been illegally raid to the members of ihc former school board for salaries Tn this tse members uf the board naturally ob- jectcd. hut t#e majority oE tho mem hers of the council insisted. saving that the board should bring sutt against the former board for thc money. The board heheved thu law proceedings should be brought or the council Any how. they wanted tHc money II was necessary for the transaction of the business of n, sahaal district For any law proceedings a#e expenses must be paid by the cuurcil. ur matter who began them. and such law proceeding. would probably ca. up more than n, sum whose recovery is sought
 The action of the council in tbe mat ter is decidedly regrettabIa II wiH probably give rise t. renewal of t1.- uHsecmiy wrangses which have been carried on by the two bodies before. The board has been clearly told taat lt ls dependant "f the council, and that il will receive q sparkling every time 1t fails ta do as il is tald
 of course. the council said il VII give the money if tho board shows good will This ls the statement which n. council offers in its own defense. brt the implication involved therein is tl.e greatest ofiease Of which il Is guilty
 Mfr. Reed and Mir Dunn have give. their services for nothing 10 the schools NIT Allen. who Was not pres ent is the third member They are too well known. and it Is not ueces- sary to say that the tax payers viii trust them to give the best that is m them and to use the souHaest judg- meat either for the recovery Of mis- appropriated funds or for the conserya tiun Of new ones.
