Our little school building on the
south end Of Main street was all right
in it's day, but we are progressive and
need something modern and up-to-
date. We have a good teacher, rec
commended by the county superinten-
dent, but it doesn't matter who she or
he is, they cannot do justice to a
school when they have all the grades
there are to be taught. Then the
teacher is blamed and we must send
our children to some graded school,
where they" will learn something.
Right now is good time to agitate a
consolidated school for Tasker. We
can, and should have a good school
house. Lone Tree is no better situat-
ed than we are and last year they
built an up-to-date school, modern in
every respect Consolidated schools
are gaining fast, wherever tried. In
1914 Iowa had as, now it has 145.
That certainly goes to prove they are
all right. Iowa is for everything that
is progressive. Why shouldn't we be ?
We have no less than six scholars that
are going away to school when they
could be at home if we had a good
consolidated school. Pull, work, do
something, let us hear from you.
What are your objections.

Chicago. Feb. 14.-The defense of Wm. H. Orpet. put forward when he was trapped by the discovery of the false alibi he had so carefully built up to conceal his meeting with Mar ion Frances Lambert on the day she died from dose of poison is being gradually torn to shreds.
 Not one bit of evidence has sbeen discovered thus far to shield the young University of Wisconsin junior from the charge of murdering the Lake Forest High school girl, while evidence is constantly accommodating to fasten the crime upon him.
 Today's developments were ominous for the 20-year-old student who so blfthely told story of meeting the tilted Marion Francis Lambert--the school girl he had betrayed-and of seeing her swallow poison He said she died at his feet and he fled the scene.
 , Orpet thus established his presence at the death of the girl, and also gave as the motive for the suicide the fact that the young girl was "in trouble" on account of their intimate rcla- tionship. ee
 Mystery Clouds Break.
 Today. the following facts tending to clear the solution of the crime were established:
 The poison that killed Miss La,nbert was cyanide of potassium, probably Sns q saturated solution with sulphuric acid.

THREE LABOR UNIONS
 ENDORSE B. E. SHIELDS

Three local labor unions, the Boil ermakers, the Carpenters and the Brickmasons. last night, as bodies endorsed the candidacy of E. E. Shields for the office of alderman from the First ward.
 Formal announcement by MT Shields is made in The Graphic this morning. He had no desire to make the race, as he has never sought public office. The Boilermakers, in regular session, gave him their en- dorsement and prevailed upon him tC become candidate. Within an hour the other unions had also endorsed him, each as body. Following the meetings, big delegation of Mir Shields friends accompanied him to The Graphic office, where report of the action taken was handed in.
 Mr. Shields is boiler maker, and has always conducted the business of the boilermakers' union here in an upright and capable manner. and is highly respected by all who know him. He is native of Iowa, where he was born Al years ago, and has made his home in Pine Bluff the past nine years. He is a man of family and is very widely known. His friends say he is honest and fearless, and that if he is elected he will prove one of the best aldermen Pine Bluff has ever had.
 Mir. Shields is not the candidate of any faction. according to his friends, but is straight out Democrat, anx- ious to do anything and everything to upbuild Pine Bluff and to aid in the progress and prosperity of the city which is his home. His friends say the action taken by the three labor organizations last night is clear in dication of his popularity and his strength with the voters of the city.
