LOOKS LIKE SOME DARK SCHEME

The people are going to be greatly
dissatisfied if the High School Board
decides upon the location of the high
school at the meeting set for the 29th
instant. That is entirely too soon to
give the matter fair and impartial
consideration. 1t looks like those who
would advocate the settling of this
question on that date have some utter
ior motive in so doing. 1t looks like
dark scheme to defeat common JUS
tice in the matter. 1t is absurd to
think that in such a short time all de-
tails necessary to the fair considera-
ton of location can be attended to.
Who knows but that some place or
places in the county might offer site
and building absolutely free of cost to
the county, provided reasonable time
is allowed in deciding this matter3
There is no fairness, justice or reason
in rushing the decision OF selection
of location, and those of the board
who would have the question settled
as early as the 10Th instant are certain
ly going against the wishes of all fair
minded, impartial people. South
Pittsburg Hustler.
We don't know so much about the
people being dissatisfied, as the Hust-
Ter says. The people of Marion Coun,-
ty have waited SO long for High
School to be located in the county that
they are getting rather impatient to
see the work of actual construction
under way Whatever proposition is
taken, it must be remembered, that it
is not the county which is to do the
actual work of constructing building,
but it will be through the efforts of
the citizens and property owners of
the place fortunate enough to secure
its location. But, perhaps the Hust-
Ter believes that those Of the commit
tee who were so anxious to close the
matter up thought by SO doing to shut
off all propositions. and thus force the
county to issue bonds in 1911 to pur-
chase the property they desire to Sc
cure. We do not believe that any OF
the High School commission would de-
wise such long wait as that or so I'M
fair to the crying needs Of the child
rem Of today for higher education.
We believe that to the Goth of this
month is long enough to secure pro-
positions, and allow places to devise
plans. In fact those who did not
have an actual proposition to lay be-
fore the court, if necessary, simply did
not know where they were at, as the
saying is, in the matter, and If time
to the Goth of eternity were given
them, probably would be no nearer
reaching conclusion.
Therefore, we say that we believe
the gentlemen on the High School
Commission are as fair body of men
as could be gotten together in Marion
County, and when they announce their
decision we propose to be satisfied
with it. But we would like awfully
much to get glimpse Of those propos'
itions. We expect they would contain
some right amusing" features, know
ing, as we do, so many of the points
developed and developing.
With eggs at 35c dozen it will pay
to give the hens little extra care A
flock that is Smelling out the eggs now
looks almost like ready money. and
whether your hens lay or not is large
" matter of the attention they get.
If they are well housed, free from YER
min and fed balanced ration, they
should either lay or go to the market.
A gool laying strain will give results
under right treatment, If you are Civ
ing yours the right care and fail to get
returns, sell them outs and get some
that will pay profit. A non-laying
hen is a needless luxury. -Gadsden,

It is now proposed to appeal to
Congress to prevent the newspapers or
publications bearing whiskey adver-
tisement to go through the mails.
Good There are too many papers in
this land hypocritically pretending to
stand for good morals and yet selling
whiskey by the advertisements they
carry.
I With increasing prices the poor have
a splendid chance to get poorer.
Have you heard of any wages going
