cheney of Mr.. Schooner before he be-
came a resident of this county, and
was very favorably impressed with
the manner in which he conducted the
affairs of this important office. Since
coming to the county this good i'm
preston has increased to admiration.
He is absolutely on the square, a fear
less peace officer, and the expense of
operating the office is as small as
efficiency will permit. He was first
elected two years ago after a Cruel
ling campaign and should be returned.
From what the Herald can gather, Mr..
Schooner will receive a splendid in
dorsement in this section of the
county. A vote for Ben Schooner will
not be misplaced.

The Constitutionalists as they
are called have succeeded in
driving the federal army from
Torreon. The seven days con-
hict was fearful. Both armies
were driven to dire extremities.
Only by the bringing of fresh
armies did Gen. Villa finally sue
ceed in pushing his enemy to a
retreat. Only 30 living soldiers
were captured. Villa pursued
the fleeing army, but has not
succeeded in capturing any but
some stragglers. What effect
this battle will have in regard tc
a recognition of belligerent rights
for Carranza's government we dc
not know. Pres. Wilson has al.
ways favored the enemies Of
Huerta, but his enemies do moi
measure up to our presidents Of
civilized people. Perhaps moi
until Mexico City has been in.
vested will any,terms of peace be
attempted. In the Torreon bat.
tie not less than 5000 were killec
and wodnded.

The proposition to establish
high schools in the county can be
solved on the oasis suggested by
some of the leaders in the county
court. That is to appropriate
81, 500 for one at Selmer, $1,000
for one at Bethel Springs, ST., 900
for Adamsville, and $1,000 for
Stantonvilie. This plan COM
mends itself to all thinking peo-
pie. Let the schools be located
that way and all the courts s
friends will be accommodated.
An appropriation for lump sum-
and the county board to locate
the one school, will not go down.

fee at the police commissioners room
introduced to the members of the force
and to the commissioners by Mayor
Burke, The mayor urged that the male
policemen cooperate with Miss Tahourct
and give her all the assistance that Is
necessary and to always extend to her
the courtesy Of gentlemen. Miss
TahOuret will begin her duties to-day,
and VIII do patrol duty on Church street

later she will be made a qualified special
which means that she will be available
the same as a regular and may be call
ed upon at any time She will then have
her quarters at the Rest Room which
will be open every evening in the week.
As the mayor expressed it, she will not
engage in the more strenuous duties of
the police officer when called upon to
quell disturbance or the like but she
will look after women who are unfor-
tunate enough to come into contact with
the law by reason of misdcmeanor or
crime. or who have been reduced to pow
erty and are apt to become city charges,
or who are otherwise in distress. The
office Is an entirely new one and is large
ly experimental, hut it Is expected there
will be plenty of opportunity for Miss
Tabourets work and that the duties OF
the office will become more manifest as
time goes by,
