years." declared Mr.. Bryan, will be TO
contribute whatever l can toward
making the national Democracy dry.
When all issue rises it must De met,
and the Prohibition issue is hero. Our

not afford to become the champion of

Mr.. Bryan pointed out Why Mr.
Hughes was like the man who had to

on the relative merits o. the sun and

In what ways Will the result Of tie

School Tax Defeated.

The ten cent school tax vas defeated
more than 8 to 1 at the election last
Tuesday. The main reason for its de-
feat was the fact that in many precincts
there was not a single person working
for it. Should the school authorities
ever undertake to carry the election
in this county again they should not
try to do so at the general election. -

of the supporters Of the route
that passes through Artemus
that the amount of taxes paid on
the respective routea or the ter
ritories adjacent thereto should
at least receive some considera-
ton in the approval of the route.
The supporters of the route pass
ing THROUGH our village would re-
spectfully show two tax payers
who alone pay taxes on an assess
ed valuation of over four hundred
thousand dollars that is in terri
tory adjacent to tributary to the
Artemus route. To say nothing OF
other tax payers who live on the
route or of farmers in territory
adjacent or tributary to it. In
advancing this argument, the
supporters of the Artemus route,
question very seriously if the en-
tire assessment in the competi-
tive route will reach the assess
ment placed ON these two trXpay-
ers. They can further show that
these two taxpayers have no in
terest in either of the two routes
that the building of the road via
Artemus would not enhance the
sale value of their properties, as
they are not for sale, but are de-
voted to the business conducted
by these two taxpayers. At the
same time, it is the belief of the
Artemus supporters that these
taxes paid to the county should
have some consideration in the
determination of the route to be
built.
