GOODS
Need to be Carefully Bought
An unreliable Hot Water Bag or fountain Syringe never fails
to give out at the worst possible time. Just when you want
it most--and in a hurry, too--you find it unfit for use. There
fore, when buying Rubber Goods it pays to avoid the unre
liable kind and secure Rubber Goods which can be implicitly
relied upon in every respect.
THIS IS THE PRINCIPLE upon which we buy Rubber Goods.
They possess the utmost wearing qualities, because they have
all the strength of live, FRESH rubber, made thruout by ex
pert workmen. Each piece bpars the maker's name and we
PERSONALLY AND LNC0ND11IONALLY GUARANTEE IT TO GIVE
PERfECT SATISFACTION.
We carry a complete line of Chamois Vests for ladies and gentle
men in all sizes.

SPECIAL ELECTION
Mayor Requested to Call Spec
ial Election to Issue
School Bonds
An adjourned meeting of the board
of education was held at the clerk's
ffice last evening. Present, F. C.
Metcalf, F. H. Files, J. C. Palmer, R.
B. Fitzgerald.
The following resolution was intro
duced and sdopted, all membets vot
ng aye:
Resolved, by the board of education
of independent school district No. 1,
of the city of Madison, S. D.:
That the mayor and city council of
said city of Madison be requested to
call a special election of the eaid city
for the purpose of voting upon the
following, question:
Shall 115,000 iu bondo of indepen
dent school district No. 1 of the city
if Madison, S. D., be, issued for the
purpose of erecting a suitable school
building in said city
On motion, board adjourned.
This morning, Pree. Metcalf of the
board of education presented the fol
lowing request to Mayor Geo. H.
'.Vaskev
Realizing the pressing needs of the
city, and desiring to see Madison one
tbe best and uust economic cities in
South Dakota,we am giving our school^
much time and thought. After can
ful deliberation we feel that the high
school has far outgrown its present
luarters. The city must care foi the
education of their children. In order,
therefore,that all may receive ju«t and
adequate attention, we deem it best to
k your honoi, the mayor, and the
city council, to call a special election
for the purpose of voting fl,U0o
mde. We feel that the urgent needs
of the school make it expedient that
you act at the earliest possible mo
uient, in order that plans may be ma
lured and the work commenced as soon
hs the weather will permit, so that the
proposed addition to the high school
building will be leady for occupancy
by Sept. 1, 1909.
Signed by members of the boaid of
education
Mayor Waskey will lay the matter
before the city council at a meeting to
be held at an early date.
The purpose of tbe board of educa
tion is to build an addition to the nie
sent central building in order to pro
vide room for tbe city schools which
seems an absolute necessity.
The Daily Leader has made an in
vestigation of the financial condition
of the school department of the city
and finds that:
Of the $15.(00 bonded indebtedness
incurred for the erection of central
building, #12,000 have been paid, leav»
iug a bonded indebtedness of #3,000 en
central building, which is being paid
off at the late of #1,000 a year.
There is a bonded indebtedness of
#8,600 on the Lincoln and the (Jartield
building?, making total bonded indebt
edness,

^The value of city school property is
estimuted at #60,000.
