state aid is asked.
A. A board of education cannot
borrow money to meet the expenses
of operating the schools.
s. When the financial resources
of the board of education are ex-
hausted before the end of the school
close the schools.
If this proposition is voted down
in these districts this fall, the
schools will lose not only the amount
of money which this additional levy
would produce, but also the amount
which would otherwise be received
as state aid OF course, we do not
know how much state aid will be
needed next year, but the districts
voting this year will probably need
as much as they received last year,
which was in the aggregate for the
five districts of Bloom, Center, Ho-
mer, Penn, and Windsor, $31,998.
But this amount of money does not
represent the total loss which would
be incurred. A greater loss would
have to be sustained by the children,
which would be loss of education,
loss Of training for life's work;
for Bloom township without the
three-mill levy and the state aid
would be able TO maintain her
schools only about five months;
Center, four months; Homer, less
than five months; Penn, less than

The Three-Min Levy For schools

The Three-Mill Levy For Schools
A proposition to authorize the
board of education to levy not to ex-
ceed three-mills in addition to the
regular levies authorized by law will
again be submitted to the electors
Nov. 4, 1924, in following school dis
tricts of Morgan county: Bloom
Center, Homer, Morgan, Penn and
Windsor With the exception of
Morgan township this levy is now in
force in these districts, having been
authorized for period of five
years by vote of the electors at the
primary election in August, 1920.
This, therefore is the last year for
which this levy can be made in any
of these districts, unless the people
by their votes this fall again confer
this authority upon their respective
boards of education.
This matter deserves very careful
consideration for the following rea
sons:
l. This proposition can now be
voted upon only at regular No
vemher a5acti0n: and November,
1925 would be foo late to make the
levy for the year 1925-1926.

without vote Of the people Will
not produce sufficient funds to meet
The operatin expenses OF the schools

Il. Il. Gray's Answer To Inquiries AS
To His Attitude Toward The Quail
Law
McConnelsville Ohio
October 23rd, 1924.

To Voters of Morgan County:
So many inquiries have come to
me from persons Interested asking
my attitude toward the law protect
ing the quail, that | consider it
proper to make and publish an an
swer which will serve the purpose
OF large number OF Individual let
ters, and will make my position per-
fectly clear.
AS representative of this coun-
ty in the legislature I will give my
support toward keeping the quails
protected as they are now given
protection. ! have so expressed my
self to all who have come to me with
the question, and l desire to have
the public know exactly how | feel
about it. No one need be uncertain
about my position-it is, and will
be, exactly as stated in this letter.
Very respectfully,

w. M. Newton, better as Mont, !"
is the candidate on the Republican
ticket for sheriff of Morgan county.
The voters have expressed their ap-
proval of his services whenever the
opportunity presented itself The
people have never regretted having
given him their support. When did
he ever fall down on the job? While
firm in the administering of his
duties, he always does it in clear
headed, fearless manner, without
unnecessary fuss or buster. The
sheriff's "job" since the Volstead
law went into effect, has been hard
dangerous one, but Mont" has new
er been found lacking. Officials
have very much to do in seeing that
the law is properly enforced. Aside
from the successful manner in which
he has rounded up bootleggers, and
viOlators in general, he handles the
general routine work of his office in
the most capable manner. When not
''sheriffing" Morgan county, he has
worked at his trade--that of black
smithing, and has looked after his
farm. His ancestors were among
the first settlers of the northwest
CeffltOFy, anu the CFlDe Oh New
tons, known for their honesty and
integrity, have always lived in this
county.
Some say that Mont" would not
be the big success he has been, were
it not for his wife who is his able as
| sistant, and the Jail matron. Be
/ that as it may, she has been most
competent in her duties, and al
ways kindly and faithfully looks af-
ter the best interests of the jail.
AS chief law enforcement officer
of the county, w. M. Newton has
made good The people know OF
his services. Let them speak their
approval with their votes.

HATFIELD WELL
NOW DOWN BETTER

Reports from the Hatfield lease re-
ceived in Rawlins yesterday morning
were to the effect that at midnight
Tuesday evening the hole had reach
ed n depth of 117O feet and approx
imately 100 feet was being made
each day.
Drilling is progressing very salts
factorily and within the mex 80 days
1t is believed that the hole will be
at a sufficient depth to permit OF
the landing of the ten inch casing.
This casing is on the ground at the
present time and everything is in
readiness to land 1t.
President Hatfield states that he
is very enthusiastic over the pros
poets in well No. 2 and believes that
better time will be made in drilling
this well than in drilling well No. /.
a rig has been purchased for well
No. g., which will be located on state
section SO. This rig will be taken
to the field as soon as the roads Will
permit and will then be erected and

Commander Legion
Post Denies Settlement

In order to explain the position
of Fred Duncan Post of American
Legion in reference to the ase
against G. G. Fleming. Mr.. Paul
Leimbach, commander of the local
post, has issued the following state
ment:
In justice to the membership of
Fred Duncan Post N. %, The Amer
lean Legion, l feel 1t my duty to
answer at least some of the state
ments that have been made. by peo-
pie who are uniformed or inclined
to spread propaganda, with reference
to the case Of the State of Wyoming
versus G. G.. Fleming and in which
case the local post Of The American
Legion is the plaintiff.
With reference to the statements
to the effect that G. G. Fleming paid
The American Legion the amount
which was claimed to be due that
organization, this statement or sim
liar statements is nothing but 10
much propaganda being spread by
some one whose interests in the case
are opposite from those of The
American Legion. Mr.. Fleming has
not paid The American Legion m
cent and as far as the present Off
GERS of the Legion are concerned.
no offer of any amount of money
would be accepted as Mr.. Fleming
is charged with a crime and the in
tent was to punish the guilty Grim
inal rather than to use the officers
of the State and County for the pur-
pose of making a collection.
Regarding the denial by Governor
Silzer Of New Jersey for the extra
dition of Fleming, 1t is hard to be-
lieve that an American citizen hold
ing such an important position could
be so ignorant as not to be able to
distinguish between a requisition for
a person charged with a crime and a
request to try a person charged with
a crime. The former was the de-
mand made by the Governor of wy
oming. but the Governor of New
Jersey evidently interpreted this as
a request to try Fleming to determ-
me his guilt. At least Governor Sill
ger appointed himself as Judge and
jury and upon hearing only the side
of Fleming. he judged him not
guilty. at least so long as he (Flem-
ing) remained within the State of
New Jersey. The whole affair gives
one the impression that the State
of New Jersey under the regime OF
Governor Silzer is a good place for
fugitives from justice.

COURAGEOUS MUS
ICAL PROGRAM IS
A Big SUCCESS

In offering so difficult and so i'm

For sheer drama this piece can not
easily be excelled. Moving forward
