4th. Taxpayers who have lived
in this district for the past 80
years attest the fact that the
present school house nor the one
before it was ever used for any
kind of religious services. His
statement to the contrary must
be the hallucination of his false
mind. His cool reception at Dog
Wood on Sunday afternoon. Oct.
%, certainly proves to any sane
man that this district does not
want any of his words of wis
dom. OF the seven tax payers
who honored him with their
presence. two adhere to the
faith he has the honor to repre-
sent. two we presume. came of
mere curiosity to see what kind
of an animal was going to per-
form that afternoon. The direc-
tors came to see if he was a man
of his word, and would prove by
the statutes of Missouri that we
had violated our oath. In this
we are sorry to say he followed
his old course and branded him
self with another falsehood.
His villainous statement that
one of US is an Atheist, one has
the reputation of being an ag-
nostic and the other a descend
ant of Irish Catholics are ,tWo
absurd to need attention. We
pass them by realizing they are
the children of a diseased mind.
His actions toward us certainly
prove him to be garbler of facts.

A REPLY TO FATHER
N. D. COLLINS LETTER

With the talent OF an angel q
man may be fool"
The mission Of this article is
to prove that M. d. Collins who
is honored with the position of
Rector of the Catholic church at
Jackson, Mo-. by his unwarrant-
ed and nncalled for attack upon
the school board of District 36,
(Dog Wood.) shows himself to
be a man of a base. vile and un-
truthful disposition, and is there
fore unworthy the respect, con-
sideration or esteem of a truth
loving public.
In his articles in the Jackson
Herald and Cash-Book under
date of Oct. 20. 1910. and the
Daily Republican under date of
Nov. 3, 1910, he makes the fol-
lowing statements:
1st. That the school board of
Dog Wood District in refusing
him the use of the school house
violated their oath Of Office.
End. That he had the consent
of two of the trustees.
3rd. That majority of the
taxpayers had expressed their
desire to hear him speak,.
4th. That ministers of our
dissenting brethern. frequently
use that school house of the Dog
Wood District. and neither Cath
olic. Protestant or atheistic tax
payer ever offered objection.
To prove the falsity of the
above assertions. and show the
malicious and untruthful dispo-
sition of the man we submit the
following:
1st. Revised School Law,
1909, Section 1O7S4. The board
of directors shall not allow the
use of the school house or school
premises for religious. literary
or other public purposes, on Tor
the meeting of any farmer or
labor organization, secret or
otherwise, except when such use
shall be demanded by majority
of the voters of the district at
any annual or special meeting"
This question has never been
voted on in this district
End. Jackson, Mo-. Nov. 8.
1910. We the undersigned board
of directors of District No. 36.
(Dog Wood hereby certify that
we did not at any time give our
consent for M. d. Collins to use

SAN FRANCISCO ENDORSED
Commercial Club Finds it Was for
Western City All the Time.
RESERVATIONS NOT ACCEPTED
Club Rejects UnaniuaousIy the ResiE-
nations Of McCord and bruce
and Gives Them a vote
of Confidence.

The Commercial club has indorsed San
Francisco for the exposition. The resigna-
tons Of w. ". McCord and f. e. Bruce
from the executive committee are unani-
mously rejected and the two men given a
vote Of confidence.
The above is the net result OF the meet
ing the executive committee Tuesday noon.
The Commercial club OF Omaha through
a ruling OF Chairman David Cole ended the
San Francisco-New Orleans muddle In
favor Of san Francisco. II appears that
the clubs actual position has been for
San Francisco all the time.
This come about in somewhat com
phcated way. 1t is held that the public
affairs committee through the letters OF
its members submitted by L. Z. Bruce
favored San Francisco by a vote Of 10 to 2
with neutral THIS is now declared to
have been the report Of the public affairs
committee made two weeks ago. 1t was
moved At the time by II. Il. Baldrige that
the report OF the committee be adopted g"
This carried and II was officially an
nounced that the executive committee had
Endorsed New Orleans
Then came the motion at last Tuesdays
meeting TO reconsider This carried. but
Is now declared to have been out Of order
by Mr.. Cole. Therefore the original action
stands.
BY this somewhat roundabout way the
club officially is recorded to have Endorsed
the western city.
Tempest In n Teapot.
II was announced this Tuesday that Mr.
Coles ruling was accepted without demur,
but inRsmuch as +. e. Bruce resigned dur
Ing the meeting II looks as IL the ruling
old not appeal to Mr.. Bruce.
Immediately after this a motion was
passed by a rising vote rejecting his and
w. H. McCords designations. How they
will receive this is uncertain. Mr.. Bruce
did not thereafter insist that his resigna-
ton stand The two men were given a
vote of fun confidence"
Waiting outside the meeting were Sen
ator w. c. Ralston and G. p. Braslan OF
San Francisco. and the New Orleans press
agent. They wished to be heard, but were
not invited to speak
Mr.. Cole had his ruling written out for
use in case he were not present He de-
scribes the affair as something of temp
est in teapot" and winds up by saying
therefore we had much ado about moth
ing"
The meeting OF the committee was on the
whole more harmonious than last Tues
days although some earnest debate went
on at times. Unfair" declared Mr.. Bruce
at one time.
When the meeting adjourned members
OF the executive committee looked as II
something OF a load had been lifted from
their shoulders.
