THE SCHOOL STATEMENT.

A concise statement of the financial conditions Of the schools of this school district is published under the author ity of the School Board in proof tha, it will require ten.mill tax to keep up the standard of the schools as al present.
 This ten-min tax is but three mill increase over the seven mills the people Of this district have al. ways voted
 Unless the ten-miu tax is voted there must be a retronchment
 The School Lard can do no more than handle 10 best advantage the op porunlty placed within is hands by the people
 So in the final analysis of'thc ques ton before the voters it seems to be up t2 them to decide whether they want retrenchment in the schools here or not.
 Retrenchment may mean the losing of some of the teachers who are doinl good work here now The school teacher, like everybody else, has felt the high cost of living, and while ;hey may n reality be entitled to advance in salaries vet it certainly could not be taken for granted they would ac cept reductions at this time.
 The best teachers can secure places anywhere. Every big school district in the state is reaching out for the best educators for the chn dren.
 The difference of three mills be tween the seyen-mill tax you have paid heretofore and the ten mills that yot will be asked to vote m the scho election is all important to the mp keep of the schools of this city. w want our schools to be of a high stan dard They are that now. We wan them kept that way.
 The statement the board has pub lished in detail is convincing. | should appeal to the enthusiasm O the voters in general.
 The voter is always loath t. vote al increase of taxes on himself. but i there is one cause in which he should yield. and vote this tax. it should bc fer educational purposes
 The issue is before the voter |. is to him for dec'si5n Ita majority yot, the ten-mii tax there win at least b. no lower standard in the work of th, schools here. Think over il.
