It is easier to build the Manama

There is a general complaint
all over the country that munic

the powers they have, and yet
there is a large number of poo

It is a very interesting report.
Two remarkable speeches were

by two remarkable men. One
by President Moosevelt at Oyster

both. From tlie loaders of the

County Clerk Ilerrell has fin
ished casting up the school enu
meration for the county, as re
turned to him by the district
clerks. The results are not such
as we would like to record, as
the figures denote a loss over
l'.Kja of ;X" school children- The
records show that there have
been an average decrease of 15
a year since 1H'.!7, notwithstand
ing the fact the oouuty has in
creased in population since that
date- This year's enumeration
shows the following results by
township:

J n the above it ill le noticed
that the loss in Osage township
is 27. When the enumeration
the school children was taken a
short time ago in the JJich Hill
districts which is two miles wide
and hix mill's long, the increase
of last year was noted as 111,
hence, it seems that the country
districts of the township have
lost I-!"1 children of hchiml Hge
during the past y ear. What has
become of those children? And
is there a proportionate falling
odof the voting population? If
there is a proportionate falling

Crop reports a few week ago
were almost Anything but en
couraging over the entire state
and the rural population could
not be credited with very high
s p i r its. However, conditions
have changed, and very rapidly,
too. Kecent rains and warm
nights have given the corn and
other grain crops the stimulus
they so much needed and mea
dows and pastnres, etc., are coin
ing out well. From very dis
couraging, reports on crops
have changed to very encourag
ing, and business men over the
entire state say that the effect is
readily noticed in their trade.

Secretary Shaw Find Surplus
Instead of a Deficit at the
End of Fiscal Year,
June 30.
Secretary of the Treasury
Shaw issued the following state
ment regarding the treasury
surplus at the close of the fiscal
year ending June :0:
''In making comparisons be
tween this and the previous fiscal
year the following facts must be
taken into account. The deficit
last year was $24,OtK0OO in round
number. This included (.iXKV
WW extnioi-rfjniiry expenses on
the Panama anu. 'J'Jy? actual
deficit on ordinary expense
therefore, in mund numbers,
$1,000,IKH), This year the sur
plus is $2ri,(M,ooo, and in addi
tion, there has been jwid oil th
Manama canal $1,000,0H0. The
actual excess of revenue over or
dinary' expenses is, therefore,
$4:t,roo,ooo.
"The difference between FI,
.'.00,000 excess and $l,00O,0O0
deficit on ordinary expenses is,
therefore, Cd,r00,0 0 0. The
treasury, or ordinary expenses,
is stH.a'oo.OOi) better otf at the
close of the tWai jr,jr than at
the close of the risen! of

THE CEMTKAL COMMITTEE.
A Warm Meeting Katurtlay and
the Ketimii Upened Up.
The call for a coinmittee meet
ing w;u honored by a goodly
number of the old members of
the Ifc'mocratic Central Coinmit
tee, although some were absent.
One of iJie Hutlcr editors ap
peared v,th a carefully fricaseed
resolution, a whole tray of bon
boas fir Mr. Peeler, assuring
hi ui that the county was pros
perous, the ring dodighbvd aiid
the Democratic party v,v,s qut of
order, Uu.hnic,;ijly ,d.i.sf;;;uclvsed:
according tu the nlnl oots coud
not go lehind the returns. Hut
severul of the more thoughtful
members pinted to the Novem
ber handwriting on the wall and
they decided to "take ihe lid o!l"
and look into the catch, then
was surely a tartar somewhere
in the net, something rotten in
Denmark, the' choice of the par
ty, sentiment of the iooplo had
been grossly perverted.
After a wrangle, cracking of
lxne, the committee decided to
meet Monday and ojh ii and r
count the ballots and see if they
could discover the "nigger in the
woodpile."
The committee did not look ut
uny other office but that of hher
itT and they counted Angle in In
good shape, leaving Johnson mid
Peeler high and dry, wrecked
ships on tho hhores of time and
eternity. The unexpected has
happened and there U hwearlng

Kiih Hill is quite iv summer
home for actors now. There is
the family of Prof. Chamberlain,
the family of Win. Mekhcr, tho
family of "Doe" Wright, the fam
ily of "Mob" Sacra and several
actors without families all good
clever people as one meets any
where.
We are glad to note that the
new city marshal shows a dispo
sition to enforce the curfew ordi
nance. Let the law be enforced
or repeal it. Public sentiment
can be expressed in resolutions
adopted nt a public meeting, but
when this sentiment is crystal
ized into law it becomes an ex
pression of public opinion that
the people want observed and
obeyed. To see that this is done
we elect officers and expect them
to do their duty. When they do
this duty the people should ap
prove and they usually do ap
prove. a
