school Election Next Monday.

The annual school election of the
| Independent district of DEBORAH will
be held at the city hall next Monday
afternoon. AS stated previously in
these columns, the board will submit
to the voters the proposition to con-
struct new boiler house and buy a
new boiler, issuing time orders in
payment therefore.
The boilers now in use are worn
out, and will need replacing during
the coming summer, and the high
school building is crowded to the
limit, with not room enough for the
classes. 1t is proposed to take the
heating plant out of the building en-
tirely and thus give more room, and
make the building safe from fire haz-
ard. With the boilers and the coal
room remote there will be practically
no danger, whereas in the past there
have been fires started from spontan-
eous combustion in the coal room
Another phase is the standpoint of
cleanliness and sanitation, smoke,
etc. The expense will not be large,
probably about $4,000, and will save
the cost of a new building at this
time.

PURCHASE FAIR GROUND.
Several Business Men Unite to Save
County Meeting Place from Be-
ing Dismantled for Farm.

The lease upon the fair grounds in
this city, held by a number of the
business men and others having ex-
pired and the property being about
to be sold, probably the buildings
torn down and the property turned
into farm lands, thereby destroying
the last place in the city of DEBORAH
suitable for fair ground and gen.
eral public meeting place of that
character, several of the business
men of the city, realizing the neces-
sity of prompt action in the matter
last week took up the option and pur-
chased the property, which was own
ed by Mrs. c. C. Bates. The pur-
chase includes all the present fair
ground land and all the buildings,
| including the large barn, sheds, ETC.,
near the railroad tracks. The pur-
chase was not made as an investment
in any way, but for the purpose OF
preserving the grounds for the use Of
the public. 1t would have been ex-
tremely unfortunate to have let this
plat of ground and these buildings be
put to any other use than that fol
which they have been employed SC
many years, and to the pleasure OF
so many people.

4 Fire Alarm.

The sounding of the alarm at s 80
O'Clock Saturday night during the
terrific blizzard called the fire de-
partment to the residence of Mrs.
GriswOld on Broadway, where bad
chimney fire looked very serious, but
the fire was confined to the chimney.
Other chimney fires in town that
night made people anxious for the
safety of property, but fortunately
no damage resulted.

violation of the law.
Where a reasonable majority, back
ed by public sentiment, are for pro
hibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors
prohibition should prevail If the mi

by no sentiment for prohibition, SHOULD

CONGRESSMAN HARRISON'S
I Speech ON THE Webb BILL

~ I At a recent meeting of the AntiSa-
Fioon League, at Columbus, Ohio, pro-
gram was mapped out for concerted
action to be brought to bear on Con-
gress for the enactment of legislation
~ that will make for national prohibit
ton. In view of this recent agitation
and the prospects of the question
looming large in the near future, the
W speech Of Representative Pat Harri
MI son while the Webb bill was under
~ consideration in the House will be of
~ interest. Mr.. Harrison's speech was
Yjh as follows
I'm Mr.. Speaker, have listened to this
a debate with much interest and some
curiosity. l have seen in the course
of it distinguished members of this
House who are opposed to the passage
of the bill dress their arguments in
every kind of garb. Some oppose it,
saying that it is unconstitutional 9TH
ers, that it destroys individual liber-
ty'; others, that it allows the prohibit
ton states to dictate to the wet states
as to what they shall or shall not do;
and still others say that it will prevent
wines being brought into the prohibit
"a ton states for sacramental purposes.
No doubt some of these arguments
IN are made in good faith. l can under
~ stand how lawyers will differ as to its
" constitutionality In my opinion that
is the only argument that can be rea-
sonaEly advanced and that demands
n~ 'erious consideration. There is always
y fclose question of law when we try
~ legislate within the limits of the
yT >dndistinct twilight zone that separates
~ the jurisdiction of the Federal govern
w ment, under the interstate commerce
III clause of the Constitution, from the
jurisdiction of the states. And in this
