ANIMAL School Meeting

More interest was shown In the school
meeting held in the Court House on Tues
day evening than was evinced year ago.
Then there were 45 voters present. On
Tuesday evening 1866 ballots were cast.
Some time since there was movement
started to make changein the member
ship of the Board of Education under the
impression that the term of one certain
member would expire, but when it was
found out that this was not SO there was a
halt in the action. Finally 1t was decided
that it would not do any harm to have q
contest, anyhow, and candidate was
named DIR. William P. Melcher, how
eyer, declined to again be elected. He
has served on the Board since July, 1894
and has long felt that he has done his duty
toward the schools and did not desire to
continue in the position. This left the
way open for a new candidate. Two
names were mentioned but the situation
finally settled down to only three candi-
dates being in the field.
This, however, was not generally known,
and with the idea that the man who has
no opposition is in the greatest of danger.
the voters came out to aid their favorites.
The meeting was called to order by Frank
lin Dill, district clerk, and Joseph @.
Kingdom was made chairman. Mr.. Dill
acted as secretary under the provisions of
the law on that subject. After the call
had been read he offered his report show
ing receipts and expenditures. A motion
was offered that the report be accepted as
read. The chairman stated that this was
the time if any one present desired infor
nation on any point in the statement.
The interested taxpayer" who recently
published a communication about the lin
cidental account" did not make himself
known. The only question asked was
propounded by Richard j. B. Slack, who
wished to know how much the Heard
property cost. He was told that it was
purchased about three years ago and that
81, 2vO was paid for it.
Joshua Matlack and Thomas G. Shinn
were appointed tellers to preside over the
ballots for members of the Board of Edu-
cation George NJ. Sleeper and George A..
Linton were placed in charge of the box
for appropriations The polls were kept
open one hour as required by statute, and
the result was as follows: For members
of the Board of Education: ballots cast,
1877; John M. Huff, 121; Philip Karg, 1911;
William H. Mason, 1853; DR.. Melcher, B.;
rejected, owing to being double ballot;
1. For appropriations, ballots cast, 1OS;
each item of the appropriations receiving
that number of ballots.
