TAFT BECOMES EXCITED.
CONTINUED from Page one.)

HE says the reason the American
people are going to elect him is because
he is necessary for the job. That is the
description he gives. Well, | hope the
American people will not think that he
is necessary for the job want to call
YOUR attention to what the job is which
he proposes. 1t is the millennium that
he is going to bring about when he
gets into Office. All bosses are going
to disappear, politicians are going to
be fewer. and he is going TO have a
finger in every community in every
state, in every county and everything
is going to heaven.
IF that be true that the millennium
is coming and that is the job he is to
do, it is going to take longer than four
years. L beg of you to ask him when
he comes whether he Will take a fourth
term, ask him whether he is going to
take fifth term, and why he should
rot continue in office during his life"

The Middle street lot, as owned by
the city. is not of sufficient size upon
which to erect building of this type
and at the same time provide suit
able playground in connection. Your
committee has had under eonsidera-
lion several different lots in this con-
nection. We have an option on land
adjacent to the present Middle street
lot which. together with said lot, would
contain approximately $4,000 square
feet.
The following parcels are available;
Lot on ST Catherine street, contain
ing 10000 square feet; lot on Middle
street extension, containing 10000
square feet lot on Eastern avenue,
containing $4,000 square feet, lot on
Eastern avenue and Hospital street.
containing 1900 square feet; lot on
Eastern avenue and Thomaston road,
containing $4,000 square feet.
There are several other pieces which
are centrally located, but which are
not for sale The city can acquire any
one of these by eondemnatory pro-
ceedings. a process which seems in
advisable if suitable location can be
otherwise obtained. In view of its
accessibility. your committee is in
cIuded to favor the locality of the
present Middle street building.
We therefore recommend the cree
ton Of a Grammar school buildinf
upon lot at the corner of Middle and
East Chestnut streets. In accordance
with plans herewith submitted, at a
cost not to exceed $4,000 and that
the Board of Education of this city
be constituted committee TO direct
and supervise the construction of said
building.
