We do not care to discuss this
matter through these columns,
but a number Of prominent citi-
zens have been heard to express
themselves very emphaticaIIy a
long these lines. They are much
displeased with the present
status of things IN connection
with the schools and the faculty,
and until all diffara.ces are
amicably adjusted they will not
favor any material change or
any expenditure Of the public
funds for permanent improve
mcnts.

Whatever comfort the editor
of the Sun gets out of thinking
that he has justified himself for
calling the editor of the Enter
prise a malicious falsiiier" by
the publication Of the above he
certainly is welcome to, for the
two paragraphs bear out identi-
cally the same meaning to any
one who can read plain English.
All of which goes to prove that
the germ OF human kindness and
and the boosted love for peace
and harmony" which dwells in
the heart Of our contemporary is
not so great that it would deter
him from venting his spleen up
on his contemporary by libeling
his personal character thru the
columns Of his paper upon the
slightest possible provocation.::

The Morrison Monitor calls a
turn on the Republicans of JEFF

the principles Of their president
al candidate. Instead of assist
ing the women voters, they now
are attempting to take away
from the women the only Office

to hold. Tradition has given
the office of superintendent Of
schools over to the women OF
the county for the past fourteen
years and for the Republicans,
of all parties, to suggest taking
it away from them when their

Judge Recommends
Barrel Stave Remedy
for Delinquent Boy

after a boy has stubbed his toe
and committed such a crime as steal
ing an automobile for joy-riding pur-
poses, it is unfortunate that the law
does not provide that he shall be
placed across a barrel and a barrel
stave applied to his anatomy. You
need good sound thrashing, but you
are saved by the good graces of the
law" said Judge Willis 6. Sears in
releasing Edward Burns, 10 years
old, 1915 Chicago street, on bond Of
$500.
Burns and Alex B. Chambers, ZOOS
L street, who is at liberty under $500
bonds, were charged with the theft of
the automobile belonging to w. w.
Reser of Missouri Valley. Reser
missed his machine while eating lunch
at restaurant on the South Side.
Burns mother, sister and attorney
appeared in court to obtain his re-
lease. He was led from the county
jail to the judges bench in the garb
of prisoner. Promises to obey his
mother and to refrain \from wrong
doing resulted in his being sent to the
Riverview home for delinquents on
suspended sentence. He agreed to re-
port regularly to the juvenile author

To Have New Route
to the Grand Canyon

General Passenger Agent Basinger
of the Union Pacific has returned
from the west, where he went to line
up tourist route to the Grand Can
yon of the Colorado for next year.
On the trip from Salt Lake City he
was accompanied by Passenger Traf-
fc Manager Fort, Governor Spry of
Utah, and number of prominent
citizens of Salt Lake.
According to Mr.. Basinger, the
proposed route is practical and will
become one of the Union Pacific fea-
lures for western tourists next sea-
son. To reach the canyon by way of
Salt Lake, tourists will be carried on
the San Pedro road to Lund, 245
miles south of Salt Lake. From there
to the canyon they will go by auto
mobile, over a state road, a distance
of $50 miles. This road, for some
thirty miles, follows along the rim of
the canyon, terminating at a point
opposite the trail up from Williams,
on the Santa Fe.
Mr.. Fort said that the automobile
drive is delightful, as we'll as scenic,
running through deep gorges and
over high mountains. The trip from
Lund can easily be made in a day.
