MARYSvNLf SCHOOL
PLANS ACCEPTED
Walter Parker of San Francisco
and c. c. Cuff Were
the Winners

MARYSVILLE, June 9.-The board of
education of Marysville last night ac-
cepted plans and specifications for two
new school buildings, one high school
and the other a grammar school. The
high school is to cost $400 600, the sue
cessful architect being Walter s. Parker
of San Francisco while the grammar
school will cost $4,000. the architect
being c. c. Cuff of Sacramento.
The election to vote on the PROPOSE
tion of voting bonds for the erection
of the school buildings and for $50, 900
for street Improvements will be called
at once. There is considerable opposi-
tion to the propositions, not because
the school houses are not needed and
street work is not necessary, but be-
cause the financial condition of the city
at present is such that the people do
not desire to place more funds at the
disposal Of the present mayor and
council.
There is a large overdraft and debt
and the property owners wish to see
their way clear before saddling further
debt. Friends of the propositions will
make hard fight. however for the
success of both issues.

OF his going. as he has been in the

Will Tempt Many.

When thoughtful. fair-minded repub-
llcans consider what it would mean
for them to vote for Milton Z. Nc
Clure, many will decline the dose. In
voting for Mcclure they would:
l. Be voting TO make the supreme
court of Illinois a partisan body.
2. They would be voting to deprive
almost one-half of the people of Hi
nOiS of representation on the supreme
court bench
>. They would be voting to condone
the methods of the Macomb republican
convention and all its jokes and horse
play
4. They would be voting for can
didate whom the republican conven-
ton refused to nominate.
5. They would be voting for can
didate who was nominated by COM
mittee of Is. majority of whom did
not represent over one-fourth of the
republicans of the district.
G. They would be voting for can
didate who was nominated by meth
cd which the Quincy Wing character
lied as 'unrepresentative of the re
publicans of the district"
Z. They would be voting for can
didate who was nominated through the
manipulations of o. F. Berry.
g. They would be voting for can
didate who processes to be non-parti-
san. yet who relies for his support
upon the DDeneen machine.
g. They would be voting for can
didate who publicly declared that he
would not ask any republicans TO vote
for him because he was republican.
TO- They would be voting for can
didate who voted against Roosevelt in
1904
Rather than take the above large, 10
grain dose, many republicans will vote
for Hon. George A. Cooke for judge
of the supreme court, whose eminent
qualifications make him an ideal can
didate for the position and whose
election should be conceded by repub.
licans as matter of fairness.

The Commission Plan.

On Sept. % there will be meeting
at Peoria of the men of the state of
Illinois who are interested in securing
the passing of a law which will give
Illinois cities the right to vote whether
or not they wish to adopt the commits
sion form of government. 1t is the
purpose of this convention to pass a
resolution calling upon Governor De-
neen TO ask the legislature to consider
this question at the extra session
which will soon meet
The advocates of the commission
plan still feel keenly that they were
treated with rank injustice at the last
session. The bill giving the cities the
right to adopt such form of govern
ment was strangled in the committee
and the members of the house were
not even given an opportunity TO vote
for or against the measure The bill
was one which was especially distaste-
full to the politicians that dominated
the legislature.
The commission form of municipal
government has its advocates and those
who seriously oppose it. However, no
city of the state can have the new gov
ernment forced upon itself without its
consent. InaSmuch as merely a refer
endum is asked and as some cities are
DESTROYS of voting on the question. it
certainly would seem that no reason
remains for the legislature to deny to
these cities this right. -4aI &,

HunaOr and
Philosophy
IN DOUBT.
D. DUNCAN ~. SMITH

T WONDER If the thoughts think
L Are really thoughts or only bluffs
Just airy eddies sailing round
In weak, inconsequential puffs.
I wonder what a thought is like
II 1t is yellow. blue or gray
Or just a bright. high colored pink
And il I'll have a few some day.
How do they ever get inside
The bony box that holds the brain!
Where do they come from? Goodness
knows.
I wonder IL they fall like rain.
We do not make them in the shop.
We do not buy them at the store,
We do not pick them from the trees
Nor find them lying on the floor.
But somehow they keep floating in
At least that's what we think they are.
Who knows but they come down from
Mars
Or from some other distant star!
They roam around inside our heads :
And make us do some funny things,
And then they fly away again
As though they were possessed OF
wings.
And often when we sit and loaf.
Not bent on doing good nor crime.
We think that we are thinking thoughts
When we are only killing time.
For were they really. truly thoughts.
These fleeting waves that come and go.
We ought to in the course of time
Have something like results to show.
