So i took it upon n.y I self to w rite a protest and circulate it I a [onnest »nil circulate it w far a.- tlie tune at my disposal would per i mit. This protest was starte-1 at the end I of the school route, six miles straight north of Jerome, an.l at the comer L i , , . . I ha,J been decided to locate one of the school houses, and it was present-1 ed to practically every person residing on j that school route, and every person who I could lie seen and had a •hance to ex press. themselves upon this matter, the end of the route six miles north down to the Gould t rom acreage tract in town signai the protest. Two or three of tiiose who had petition signed tin* petition asking for a seliool, after! delilierating, with.Ire» from the tliey liad first sigmsl and names on the enter« I their , , _ .. , , pr ' jU f ' of t ** es, had small children ol school age and re ... \ r* 1 ' Jn rfc stded at the end of the school route and near the cottier where the intend«! sclusil house was to Is- located. 1 his protest was also circulated north-' east of Jerome wliere it wa» plaiin«! to build one of the school houses, and a large majority of the fanners in that lo cality sign«! tlie protest. Then the selmol route nortli-west of Jerome was covered and every person on that route Sat* . .. "' , " i There »ere somewhere in the neigh borhood of sixty or seventy signers to the protest, and if more time anil effort had been made, il was evident dial practically ninety per cent of tlie farmers would have signed tlie protest had they had the opportunity. An effort was made to get an expression from not only who were directly interested and located in the immediate neighborhood where school houses had been' planned, but also to get the sentiments of the fanners wliere no plans had yet been formulated for establishing schools. When this protest was filed with the school board at tlieir meeting last Friday evening, and a large delegation showed country their interest by Ling personally present it was soon evident tiiat is was displeas ing to the hoard. Practically every member, instead of being impartial, par ticipated in the discussion, and advanced arguments why they preferred country schools. They had passed judgement be fore the trial, and tlie cliairman was em phatic in ids declaration tiiat tlie hoard had absolute power to establish schools anywhere within the district without ask ing the consent of anyone if they so de sired. The legal authority l^iit presides over the board took tlie protest, signed by some fifty or seventy-five farmers, and held it up beside the petition signed by eight or ten, and insinuated that be cause some of those who had signed tlie petition asking for a country school had after deliberating, withdrawn and signed the protest, that they were not entitled to consideration, notwithstanding tin fact that the fraternity to which lie longs accepts a man's last will and lament as final and valid. The protest representing the sentiment of probably ninety per cent of the farmers within the district, was held up with scorn, and,the petition with only a few signatures embraced as the one entitled be ti*s was to con«id eration by the board. 1 wish, Mr. Editor, that you had space for tlie publication of the petition and tlie protest so the public could draw tlieir own inference. By comparing the the reader would find not only the great urepemderence of farmers protests, but he will also find tfiat within the liprjite of two ll**v arv »•-•i !•• at; -I - ntueted ti ut from Jeroxi « liât a let lia ' in ti »-rv est tlian J— 'ic - t - : ' lent that tl«r l-'ar>l - a t .1 in-liv.« Uutn tie* : ie.te.1.
