Says It Was Not Legal.
The following letter has been re-
ceived from Edward Carbon Of
Shorey:
Editor State Journal:
In the Saturday nights issue Of the
Journal read about the proposed
changing Of the name Of Shorey to
that of East Indianola and that at
the last school meeting Of this dis
trict the people voted for this change.
Now as matter Of fact this was not
voted on legally. The subject was
brought up after the regular election
was over (and after most every one
had left for home) and voted upon
and was not and Is not the sentiment
OF the majority Of the Shorey people.
Now why should the name be
changed? It has gone by the name
or Shorey for long, long time and
it surely isn't getting SO stuck up that
it must have a high sounding name
now. And then again, why should 1t
be called East Indianola? Shorey is
a suburb Of North Topeka and not of
lndianola. as the name EAST would
imply. Very respectfully.
EDWARD CARBON.
