At the present time the annual assessment made by the water company at s1.50 Der acre for all the water that might be used by any Stockholder This amount, however, has not only paid the maintenance expense, but has also provided for all the necessary improvements which have been made during this time.

SHALL THE HIGH SCHOOL BE
 CLOSED?

Hand bills are being distributed cal ling for d mass meeting at the Court house tonight, to discuss the propriety of closing down the High School. This is a matter that should certainly ap- peal to the sober judgment and pa triotism of our people. Surely it can not be said that the education of our children is secondary matter; but rather, it should be considered above and beyond all business matter of every kind.
 It would look as if there are two questions involved First, should our children have the benefit of at least, a High School education? Second, if so, where are they to be educated? Of course there is no way to reach the man who does not appreciate the ne- cessity of giving his children this ad- vantage. But how can the man who expects to give his child the benefit of High School education, look at the matter any other view point, ex- cept to continue the High School, if it is reasonably within the power of the people to do it? Have you ever in

tainments, and for all public and pri- vate conveniences, all of which is com mendable; and yet, these matters are certainly of less importance that the education of our children. Can the people of Prescott think of permitting the doors of the High School building to be closed against the boys and girls of this, community? If there was nothing else involved except the ques- tion of local pride it looks as if that alone would be sufficient to spur our people on to greater efforts to keep the doors of this magnificent school building open to the boys and girls of this town and community. +~*

formed yourself as to the cost of sending your boy or girl away from horne to get the same training which can be given htem at home, and at nominal cost?
 If you will take the time to do this you will certainly be clamoring for the continuance of the High School It is an old saying that the Doctors pay depends on the Top crop, and if it is a failure, the Doctor must do without We are sometimes con- strained to believe that some people, not many however, regard school mat ters in the same light.

A STEP BACKWARDS

It would be decidedly a step in the wrong direction for us to close the high school
 In the first place it would be bad for the town and the community. Of course another grade or two could be added to the curriculum in the gram mar school and that would make up in a small degree for the loss in the high school courses, but it would by no means be what many boys and girls here need and now are ready for. The trouble with running the high school is that it takes too much money

There is scarcely any combination of events that could take place which would not give to the average editor ample opportunity to enlarge upon his powers of imagination and expres- sion. It would be a wholesome thing for the world generally however if editorial and news writers would weigh their statements carefully and not write things simply to see how they sound, but occasionally exercise some regard for the truth.

for the number of pupils going to school. There ought to be two hun dred in the Prescott High School, whereas there ;s not half th2t u.Gl- per In some of the departments there are not more than ten or fifteen pupils and it costs more than $10000 to teach these few In fact it takes too much money to do anything these days. The motto in many lines of business nowadays seems to be, how much money can we use in doing this instead of how little money can we get along with.
 The high school ought to run next year. The expensive departments should be either cheapened or cut out altogether and three good teachers should be employed to teach and no teacher should be paid to teach q half dozen pupils any one particular branch, but if necessary they should teach several different departments. If the old style school master could teach sixty or seventy pupils every thing from Baker to astronomy some of their modern grandchildren could at least approach this standard by mixing up a little latin and physical geography. There is a way that may cut the expenses in half and still maintain 'creditable high school in Prescott. By all means this should be done.

has kept up in a very excellent man
ner her reputation for military train
ing and for military discipline. She
would in all likelihood receive recon-
mendations for about the same grade
as given heretofore.
Captain Laubach said that the one
thing lacking in the training of the

they did not have a rife range for
practice. Teh captain left On late
