to give the article below their earnest

! The valuation of assessable property

Number Of pupils between the .ses
Of six and twenty-one years in both
Montrose and outside five rural
schools, as given by the county super
intendent Of schools, is ATS. Of these
the rural number is 210.
) In this estimate Montrose will have
almost three-ffths (over half the pu-
pills in this contemplated school and
furnish less than one-eighth of the
money, both to build and maintain
the school
Is this a fair proposition and are
the country people going to allow it?
Would any of you go into an equal
partnership with anyone who would
propose to put in one dollar against
your every seven dollars and maintain
the business; he putting in one-eighth
of expenses and you seven-eights Of
expenses and then divide the profits
equally2 Montrose might double in
size and the country decrease and
still the proposition would remain the
same. The building at the present
time would cost. perhaps 100000.
This would be bond issue, perhaps
bearing six per cent, making $4,000
a year for us to pay seven-eighths
per cent, nearly as much in this item
alone as it now costs to run our six
rural schools We could not possibly
maintain the school, pay interest, pay
off bonds at less than $4,000, for
probably twenty years.
Now then. at the end of, say twenty
years, the building Is needing repair
and must still be maintained. If you
do not want to saddle yourselves with
a burden that you cannot get rid of,
exert yourselves now to defeat it and

did so various scenes In the early

smoking room Of the old Fifth Ave

In. There had been conversation
touching the Bible as an inspired
book. Lord Sackvilie. then British
minister TO this country, asked Booth
il he would not repeat the Lords
prayer for them. James O'Neill was
one Of the professionals present and
gave an account Of the incident. Few
people had the temerity to make
ouch a request OF Booth, he said. az
it was very unusual for him TO recite

He fixed his eyes upon Lord Sack
