the quarantine officer will make no
effort to help you-he will leave you
strictly alone to work out your own
salvation as best you can under the
most adverse circumstances. Yet you
are expected to-and you by all man
ner OF means should, live up to the
quarantine regulations. You should
take the health CT others into con-
sideration just as much as that of
yourself
Negligence Somewhere
1t has been represented to the
Record on a number of occasions
that the spread of the disease can
be directly chargeable to those who
have handled the quarantine regula-
tions--that at the beginning, the
proper precautionary measures were
not observed. This may be true or
ie may not be true; that is not
for us to say; nevertheless we do
know that there have been about Is
cases; whereas, it seems reasonable
that they could have been held down
to five. However We are not going
to blame anyone for the condition.

SCHOOL ELECTION
PASSED OFF QUIETLY

A school election was held in RI
oche today at which one long term
and two short term trustees were
elected. Charles Lee Horsey was
the long term candidate; he having
no opposition was of course elected
There were three candidates in
the field for short term trustee. Jno
Ewing, one Of the present trustees,
fell behind Horsey only four votes
- being cast fer him; while James
A. Nesbitt won over j. A. Clark, pres
ent incumbent, in vote of 36 TO 20.
The newly elected board is COM
posed of substantial citizens; men
who will take an interest in the gen
eral welfare of the schools; so ii
is safe to say that the public schools
here will be in safe hands and nc
doubt an effort will be made to keeI
them up to the present standard o.

A Bone In His Craw

But the sheriff has harbored a
fancied grievance against this paper
and its management for a number
far as we have been alb
le to discover, than that the
Record had made mention last year
of the fact of the escape from the
county Jail of some six or seven
grand jury prisoners and by way OF
editorial paragraphing suggested that
a remedy against any future deliver
les might be found in the purchase
by the county commissioners of a
phonograph; that such an instrument
might supply sufficient entertainment
TO the prisoners to induce them to
stay in nights The sheriff felt
greatly insulted at this little sal
ly OF the paragrapher; but when We
printed the report of the late granc
jury. oh my,--he went into frenzy
and out came the tin shop ad. Oi
course, it is wonder that We evel
survived the shock. But We printed
the report of the grand jury as I
matter of legitimate news to whicl
our readers were entitled and w
would do the' same thing again uil
der any circumstances.
Wanted to "Rub 1t In"
There is ample evidence to us tina
the sheriff took advantage OF tn
opportunity offered by our hell
lessness TO rub it in" on us to sal
isf a vindictiveness characteristic G
the, man. We do not care one viii
whether Sheriff Smith likes tn
way we conduct this paper or no.
nor whether he likes us or not; tn
fact remains that this paper ha
treated him with whole let NOR
consideration than he has deserved
In fact we feel somewhat guilty
having been derelict in our duty /
not having called to public mind ma
tiers in which we firmly believe h
betrayed a public trust. Since h
incumbency, the office of sheriff
Lincoln county has been conducte
with an extravagant hand-as IL
records will show. There has bee
also. a display OF weakness in the e
forcement Of the laws and we can Ct
