Live Stock Market.

Kansas City Stock Yards, June 20.
1910. Total cattle receipts here last
week jumped up to $4,000 head, an in
crease OF $1,000 head over the week
previons. An extra run Of quarantine
cattle last week account for the great
er part Of the increase. and the nat
ural increase in the supply Of grass
cattle from native territory at this
season OF each year. together with an
unusual number OF well finished na-
| tive cattle, are responsible for the
balance OF the increase. Two OF
these factors were eliminated last
week. as far as their future effect on
the supply Is concerned, namely, fn-
ished natives will become more scarce
all the time balance Of the summer
and the quarantine supply will
not be nearly AS heavy for three or
four weeks ahead as it was last week.
Grass cattle from quarantine territory
are not moving freely yet, and the
big run OF cake fed steers from Texas

class OF cattle up for this season. a

Demands veeiticatioa. =
A session of the board of educa
ton of the Independent District o1
Virginia on Friday evening last
was enlivened by the reading
and digesting of a report signed by
County Examiner Wasgatt, al
though the authorship of the article
in great part is generally accredit
ed to man who has never paid q
cent of taxes in the school district
or in St. Louis county or in the
state of Minnesota, who is not q
resident of the state and who, 30 fa1
as may be learned, is animated
solely by malice and an Unborn
hatred of aught that is beyond his
absolute control.
The report is a lengthy enuncia
ton of the findings of the county
examiner, assisted by Captain Theo
dore H. James, of Gary, Indiana
which pair put in several weeks in
dissecting the records of the dis
trict from 1905 to the present time
and while devoid of specific charges
of a gravity demanding attention il
replete with inuendoes, iusinua.
tions and derogatory mis.state.
ments anent past and present school
officials ana men not only beyond
the pale of the state but cold in
death, that the board considered it
unwise to pass the matter unheed.
ed and by unanimous vote passed a
resolution introduced by Director
Roskilly supported by Director Guy
81. Moore citing the county examin-
er to present himself at a meeting
of the board to be held a: the Roose:
welt building this evening and de-
fend his various contentious if he
can do 90.
Mr.. WasEatt has been duly served
with such notification, and it re.
mains to be seen whether or not he
will avail himself of the opportunity
of pulling chestnuts out of the fire
for a disgruntled politician OF
whether the streak of yellow will
account for his absence from the
gathering.
The Enterprise scribe has care.
fully scanned the pages of the re.
port, covering twenty three pages
of typewriter matter, but as the
same has not been disposed of at
yet it is deemed unwise by the board
to give the same publication. Afte,
the hearing of the matter, however
the people of a11e school district are
entitled to a reproduction of the
same, together with a concise
answer to the various charges anc
insinuating inuendoes, through thu
publication of the same in the loca
press, and it is more than likely
such publication will be ordered.
The meeting this evening will ir
all likelihood be attended by more
than a passing number of interest
ed citizens.
1t is not against the wishes of an,
that the books and records of tn.
school district be gone over care
fully and honestly, that any illega
act on the part of officials b,
brought to light, or that unneces
sary expenditure of moneys receive
due criticism. But people are no
warranted in accepting unsupport

sPfclu school aEcI,ox TOMORROW



erection and completion Of the Vir.
ginia high school, an election will
be held on Saturday, March 5, 1910
at the Roosevelt High school, be-
tween the hours Of 2 O'Clock p. n.
and 8 O'Clock. p. m. Of said date, at
which time voters of said School
District will cast their ballot on the
proposition of issuing these bonds.
AT the present time the bonded
indebtedness of the District is $685..
5000 and this natures at the rate
of about fifteen thousand dollars
per year: It is proposed that the
new bond issue be payable yearly
at the rate OF fifteen thousand dol.
lars per year commencing July LET,
1911. The last bonds issued by the
School District were in 1905, when a
loan wac made from the State for
the construction of the Roosevelt
High School, and no bonds have
been issued since that time.
In 1909, the School Board intend
ed to raise the money necessary for
the construction of the Virginia
High School by direct tax levy as
the entire amount could be raised
in one year and the payment of in
terest would be avoided, but few:
days preceding the annual election.
in July, 1909, the mining interests
prevailed upon the School Board to
distribute the collection of this
bond issue over a few years time
that the taxes for a single year
would not be 80 heavy. The request
to change the mode of securing this
money came too late to have the
matter of bonds legally voted upon
at the annual election, as the law
requires that the School Board
adopt resolution at least twenty
days preceding an election cover
ing the issuance of bonds. The
Board decided to submit the matter
in the election in order that the
sentiment of the voters might be.
secured and that at this election the:
proposition to issue, bonds was car:
ried almost unanimously. Bonds
were authorized for the construc-
tion of both high school and two
grade schools, one in the north aide
Of the city and one in the south aide.
but. the Board wee able to constrsaet
suitable schools in the, north and
south side of the city with funds
available, and the present bond
issue will be for the construction of
a high school only.
The contract price of the new high
school, with absolute Ere proof con;
struction throughout, is about one
hundred eight thousand dollars,
and the remaining amount will be
for the procuring of necessary ap:
Fparatus, furniture and fixtures and
the installation of heating, plumb
ing and electric systems.
All voters of the District are urg-
emily requested to call at the high
school on Saturday and cast their
ballot on the proposition of issuing
bonds, that the necessary money
may be promptly procured and the
high school completed as there is
pressing need for this building at
the present time.
In case the bond issue is not
authorized by the voters, the Board
will be required to raise the money
by direct tax levy, which would re.
suit in delay in construction of the
high school, and this bond issue
will enable the Board to fully com
plete and pay for all pending con
etruction.
