LOCAL COMMENT

1t is to be regretted that the OBJ
jectors to school consolidation at Mel
bourne are not willing to accept ma
jority verdict at the polls but must
needs appeal to the courts in an at
tempt to win there what was denied
by the voters themselves. This was
tried at Clemens with very poor re-
suits.
The purchase of two business blocks
on Main street purely as an investment
this week is an evidence of the up
ward rise of values. For two years
this property has been for sale at Il
price which other lockers considered
too high. Finally this spring the
question comes to the owner will you
take what you held it at last fall
and sale was made.
The time is ripe in Marshalitownsf for
a real estate addition or plotting OF
residence lots by syndicate which is
able to start things with a few new
houses. This town is full to overflow
ing with people right now. The trans
fer companies are advising people not
to ship their household goods here IN
til they have actually rented house
for the reason that houses are not to
be had for the mere asking.
A course in gardening 10 pe con-
Quoted thru the summer by a compe-
tent instructor is TO pc commended
as manual training for boys. Urban
life OF today is causing boys to grow
up without knowledge Of growing
things. without first hand experience
With the science of nature and they
need to know what the laws of nature
are that make the seeds grow into
plants. Fundamental science which
was once the first course at home for
the village boy and the farm boy
should not be denied the boy on the
paved street. He will need 70 know it
in his~business life TO follow and if he
never does more than 20 use it in his
own back lot when at the head of a
family it Will prove for him i primary
course in the world problem Of meet
ing the high cost OF living.
II tho number OF ;Ta:3ns anniying
for bread at the kitchen doors and the
eXtraoi binary number Of men out OF
work and applying for jobs this spring
are an indication of general conditions
the man with job that ne can call his
own should be considered a lucky boy.
1t is to be hoped that as construction
work begins with the season employ
ment will become more general.
The unpaved streets are badly In
need IF dragging just now as they con-
stitu:e about the only bad roads We
have in the county. North Third ave
nue. needs real paving to put it in
order for the severe traffic Of the sand
teams keep that street out Of repair
most Of the time. In the cities OF the
eastern states narrow strips of paving
IN the center of the street from ten t.
fifteen feet wide are considered wide
enough for paving ON the outlying
streets and the cost is half to one-third
the cost Of paving the fun width OF
the street. Later on when these streets
become fully settled up Iith buildings
the remaining portion of the street
can be paved without taking up or los
ing the paving put down at first.

YEARNS FOR PRIVATE LIFE

SPECIAL Cahle 10 The Washington Herald
Geneva- May 3.-It Is an open secret
IN European diplomatic circles that this
aged King Peter of Servia wishes to alb
dicate In favor OF his son and settle down
In private life in Geneva. His majesty
has large circle of private friends here,
he having passed ten years here for the
education of his two boys
For more than a year past private,
emissaries have been on the lookout try
ing to find a suitable residence for the
old King, but the notorious conduct Of
his son and heir to the throne has some
what disarranged his original plans. and
he Is advised that his second son Is still,
TOO young to assume the responsibility
OF ruler.
The day after the assassination or
King Alexander and Queen Draga King
Peter told The Herald CORRESPONDENT
he was then Prince Karaseorgevitchl
- that he was abhorred the terribI.
prince. in which he took no part what
ever. He added that he was too old %
accept the throne. but that he had no
choice in the circumstances As soon as
affairs permitted he would return to the
quiet life Of country gentleman In
Geneva
During all these years his majesty has
kept up his correspondence with his for
mer friends here and In private letters
has stated quite recently that he hopes
to be In Geneva again at no distant date.
As he put It: Now that the war Ia over,
1 can finish my days in peace with

HUERTA WILL REMAIN
SAYS DR.. JOHN BUTLER

That Huerta will not back down
In any particular is the opinion OF
John w. Butler. d. D.. OF Mexico
City. who has returned to New
York by order of the Board Of
Foreign Missions.
Huerta will not eliminate him.
SELF" says DR.. Butler. nor will
he run away. From what I know
Of Huerta he Is more likely to die
in his tracks than nee the country.
IF our people go to war with
Mexico now. history will return the
verdict OF General Grant regarding
the War of 1871. General Grant
said, The Mexican War is the
most unjust and unrighteous war
of modern times
''The majority of the Americans
in Mexico are of one mind in the
opinion that all the present trouble
might have been averted by grant
ing some form of recognition to
Huerta. The only hope left Is that
something may come Of the Mag
ara conference. That Is not prob
able, since Huerta and Wilson are
determined on the question Of rec
oRnition.
''If We go into war with Mexico
II will mean ten years struggle.
We can take the coast cities and
Mexico City easily enough. but In
the interior we viii have to face
long period of guerrilla warfare
under adverse climatic conditions"

Vienna. May 23.-On has been discov-
cred in a Hungarian district, not far
from Vienna. in the course Of borings for
natural gas undertaken by order Of the
Hungarian government.
In the opinion Of geologist.. the oil sec
ton extends through a large section Of
the Hungarian County Neatra. beginning
near the town of EgbeIl and ending with
in the province in lower Austria
Experts who have examined the fields
say they bid fair to surpass the Galcian
oil fields and may become an important
factor in the worlds oil markets 1t is
expected that American oil companies
will feel the competition. but Russia's are
sure to be affected.
The Vacuum Oil Company. Of Vienna.
a branch of the Standard Oil Company.
Is reported to have q large interest IN the
new fields.
Large deposits of potash also have re-
Gently been discovered near the Galfcian
town of Kalusz and. according to ex-
perts, its quality is fully equal to the
best German product from Hassfurt.
which is exported to America in enor-
nous quantities.
A corporation has been formed for the
exploitation Of the new potash proper
ties with an initial capital of S.aooeuo.
which will be later increased to se,4oo.-
900.
Tho expectation Of the promoters Of
the project Is that after supplying the
needs of the Austrian farmers there will
be left a considerable surplus for export
to the United States.
II this plan eventuates American agri-
culture will be relieved from German dc
tation regarding this Indispensable ferti-

Battle May Last Weeks.

London, Oct. 15.-The Morning
Posts Petrograd correspondent in 4
dispatch dated Tuesday, says he be-
lieves that great struggle which has
now been going on for three days be-
tween the Russian and the Austro-Ger
man forces along the Vistula river, ''in
an arena other than had been expect
ed, is the beginning of battle which
probably will last for weeks" Contin-
uing his discussion of the conflict the
correspondent says:
at is occurring on front of sixty
miles on the left bank of the Vistula,
presumably representing the center OF
the German hosts. 1t may be suppos-
ed that the Austrian remnants, filled
up with heavy levies from the last re-
serves, have succeeded in recovering
some semblance of an organized army
under shield of a German corps in the
neighborhood Of Cracow and that the
Russian advance towards Cracow has,
during the week of silence which has
just passed, been Withdrawn.
No Activities in East Prussia.
Meantime, the Germans on the
east Prussian frontier are utilizing
their network of frontier railroads to
throw forces from flank to flank in an
endeavor to hold the few positions
still left untaken.
From descriptions given of the
warfare proceeding along this front
it appears that neither side is anxious
to do more than mark time, the Rus
slams being content with having de-
feated and thrown the Germans back
onto their own frontiers"

the view Of the secretary OF war that
everything possible was being done to
protect life and property, Gov. Hunt
announced he would not at this time
send the Arizona national guard to
Naco or elsewhere on the border
ITO send the militia to the border at
this time would bring about a division
OF authority between the federal gov
ernment and the state at points of dis
turbance,p said the governor, and in
all probability would further compli-
cate existing conditions. Besides,
think the crisis has passed"
Gov. Hunt said, however, that he
was keeping portion of the national

Movement Checked.

BY United Press.
London. Oct. 15.--It is unofficially
reported that the allied forces OF Brit
Ish, Belgian and French inflicted a
severe check on the German encircllng
movement.
1t is reported that the line Of the
westward advance of the invaders was
bent back a considerable distance un-
der an assault by the allies in which
the Germans lost heavily.
The ultimate occupation of Ostend
by the Germans is accepted as beyond
sapsigl but tho Importance Of the 'oS.
cupatIon of II is discounted in British
circles.
II is pointed out that the English
blockading fleet could render Ostend
useless as point for the location Of
Zeppelin hangers. having In view an
attack on England. However. the pub
lie here still fears an aerial raid from
across the channel.

MONTHLY
REPORT OF
SCHOOLS

Supt. Ramey makes the following re-
port:
The following is summary of the
reports of the different city schools
for the first school month ending Oc-
tober 9. The enrolment for the high
school is 21S, the West school 4S0, the
North school 3S1, the South school
S34, the grades at high school 161,
rural school 21, separate school 24l,
making a total of 1886
The average number belonging is
1856, with an average daily attend
ance of 1877. Number of tardies is
1877 pupils neither absent nor tardy
1000. The low average and number
belonging in comparison with the en-
rollment is due to the fact that so
many have gone to the cotton fields
since they enrolled.
In this connection we have thought
it might be interesting to some of our
patrons to see the exact work done
by each of the high school teachers
in the respective departments. Edgar
Cowan, principal, besides acting in
that capacity. has 32 pupils in physics
and chemistry: Miss Bell has 14S in
tenth, eleventh and twelfth English,
Miss Goodnight. 20 in German and "a
ir ninth English Miss Flagler, in al
ebra and science, 1923; Miss Newly
III Latin, i01; Miss Stewart. in history,
1872; Miss Cheever, in mathematics,
12S; Miss Featherston. in commercial
Sd; Miss kirkpatrick. in the depart
ments of domestic science and domes
! tic art, So Mr.. Howard, in mechanical
drawing, 55.
All the work in the grades and the
high school is now well adjusted and
We have splendid prospects for an ex
cellent years work. Upon the whole
| the schools have never had more
efficient body of teachers.--Wm. F
Ramey
