The Taxpayers Troubles.

The Taxpayers Troubles.
The annual wrangle is at hand.
The election of the graded school
trustees takes place Saturday,
and the woods are full of candi-
dates. And here's where the
taxpayers troubles begin. EaEh
candidate feels that he is the
panacea for the trouble.
That there must be a divorce
ment between the high school
and the graded school seems to
be the general determination. It
does not, however, require the
election of trustees pledged to
that idea. The appropriation of
the taxes of the graded school
district for the support Of The
high school all along has been in
defiance Of law and could have
been prevented by any taxpayer
by a suit.
Since this question can not be
a matter at issue, there must, of
necessity, be some other motives
behind the candidacy of the men
running for trustees. The dealby
which the separation of the two
schools is TO be consumat sdimPprt
ant. Even now it is being urged
that thedistrict give its proesftY
It5 the c0ufty inF c0nside satioe
ofthecounty assuming the indebt-
edness of the district. That policy
would be fatal, for any taxpayer
could compel the levy and collec-
ton of taxes to build another
school house. Or, some future
superintendent could require it.
Then there would be the danger
Of going back to a common, un-
graded school. There would be
nothing wrong in selling a site
for a high school building to the
county, but to give'away the en-
tire property would be folly. Mr.
) Taxpayer, it behoOves you to
smoke the candidates out on this
proposition.
Another thing that will be kept
in the background, yet is the
most potent factor in the race, is
who are to be the teachers. !
know that most of the candi-
dates will say that they have nc
