We are unloading, and we

them, so the}' go Prices

should be an inducement to

any one in need of goods,

and we have certainly

reached ihe bottom in this

before you, and it rests with

you to either accept or re­

VISITED THE HIGH SCHOOL.

Ami Now the Graml .Jury la After theiu With Deadly tnteut.

On last Wednesday several frisky college students, with more gall than gumption, concluded to pay a visit to the city high school and hear some of their young lady friends recite. They accordingly braced up to the Central building and climbed the stairs in a manner suggestive of the storming of a battery. Arrived at the looms of the high school a goodly knock was given to which one of the lady teachers responded. The woolly young men stated that they desired to visit the school and were refused admittance, the teacher stating that the young ladies would refuse to recite before them. When this announcement was made the young fellows turned about and went storming down the halls. They formed in line and went down the several flights of stairs with the prison lockstep, pausing on the landngs to give the college yell. In one of the lialls a football rush was made ind before they left the building every room was in a wild uproar.

Naturally the occurrence created much indignation and it appears that the affair will have a very serious outcome. The matter has been placed in the hands of the grand jury by an rate patron of the schools and that august body is investigating the charges. It is altogether probable that that the whole drove of boys will be indicted and heavily fined. So much for monkeying with our glorious public school system.

Teachers' Association.

Or. Coultas, of Indianapolis, was introduced and discoursed on "Columbus and Columbia." 'tracing the progress of America since its discovery and held up three characters of the time, Columbus, Ferdinand and Isabella of Bastile. In his remarks he held that America was for Americans. His remarks on

Vmerica's discoverers brought rounds of applause from the appreciative audience. Dr. Coultas is always a favorite with Crawfordsville people as he is a fluent orator and a deep thinker.

The musical programme was not as food as expected as Prof. Quinton desired a rehearsal which was not grantd. He sincerely regrets that the performance was so shaky but he is not to blame as much as some of the musicians who made miserable failures, but the majority of the teachers thought it excellcr-.t, but from a critical standpoint it was a failure.

N'OTKS.

Dr. Coultas returned to Indianapolis last evening. Prof. Quinton returned to Indianapolis last evening.

Mr. Wilson, of Ladoga, is the president of the association. is

Last Thurs­

day, rth rough his attorneys, Felt & Jackson, O. C. Irwin, of the Greenfield Electric Light Plant, asked that a receiver be appointed for the plant. Judge Offutt appoiuted Mr. John Corcoran. who at once took charge and gave an undertaking for the faithful discharge of his duties with the follow ing sureties: A. .1. Banks, M. C. Quigley, W. C. Dudding and II. B. Thayer. The assignment was made, not on account of the plant not making money, but because the stockholders did not agree as to just how the business should be managed. Mrs. Thomson, of Crawfordsville, mother of Robert Thomson who has been the secretary of the company, her son-in-law. Mr. Ristine and another Crawfordsville gentleman are the principal stockholders, having something over $12,000 in the plant. Felt & Jackson are the receiver's attorneys.

There were 123 votes cast, only six of which were in opposition to the worn in, and it is stated Lliut three of the six were by accident, by reason of misunderstanding how the question was stated.

An Athletic Club.

A number of town and country boys have fitted up a place on a farm just west of town on Sugar Creek where they give exciting sparring matches occasionally. Some of these affairs have been of a rather thrilling character it is said and several clean "knockouts" have been made. The members have kept the existence of the club a secret and but very few outsiders have been favored with invitations to the periodical scraps.

WHAT SHOULD BE DONE.

Some Sensible Views by Township Assessor WairWell—The Evils of Doable Taxation—The Poll Tax^The Dog

I.aw Rtoit the' School Eook LRW.

Last Saturday Assessor Maxwell being in our sanctum, and knowing that he is a man of ideas we took the opportunity to» interview him. He was asked: "What are your ideas as to the duties of the next Legislature?"

The verdict recently rendered against our late enemies, (or friends) the Democracy, is thatorendered in old time against Nebuchadnezzar, 'Mene, mene, tekel, upharsin,' and it applies to Indiana as forcibly as elsewhere. Now the thing for us to do is to avoid the unpatriotic Southern policy of discrimination and strangulation, which do honor to-the thugs of India, and proceed in a wise and conservative manner to legislate for

all

and not for

the favored few. The State should be redistricted at once for legislative and congressional purposes, so that each voter shall have an equal chance with every other, and no taint of gerrymander'should be allowed."

What change would you have in the tax law?" "It needs amendment in several particulars. I conceive that the intent of the law is that each person shall payon what he owns and no more, in other words on assets less "liabilities, but now, if A. holds a piece of property worth 84,000, and B. holds a mortgage on the same for 83,000, A. pays on 84,000 and B. on 82,000, while each should pay equally. The present policy discriminates in favor of the money lender as any one can see. All property should be assessed at full value and the penalty for false returns strictly enforced, and assessors should be paid as census takers are, viz: In proportion to what they do. Now, Union township's assessor gets 82 per day for sixty days, just as Ripley's and Walnut's does. The time of taking the assessment should be extended to ninety days and sliouldobegin Jan. l, as all merchants, etc., take invoice of stock at that time, and it is a leisure time with farmers and others." "Would y»u have any property exempt?" 'Many persons of small means never pay any tax and to carry them forward from year to year on the tax list makes much work for auditor and treasurer with no addition to our revenue. Especially is this the tease with young men and transients assessed for poll tall tax. We do not reach this class at all and to repeal the poll tax entirely would be more just to the tax-paver of small means, for whether the property tax be 85 or 8500 the poll tax is the same and consequently most burdensome on the man of small property." "What of the Board of Equalization?" "It should meet assoon as the assessment is taken and should consist of the township assessors, who are supposed to be posted on values and best qualified to equalize their own returns

While reviewing the list from any township let the assessor of that town ship be a witness and the others sit in judgment. 'Isn't there some trouble with the present dog law?" "Yes, there are two dog laws in force at present, one requiring that they be registered with the trustees and the other that they be listed by the assessors, the tax being the same in either case. A better plan would be to have the owner or liarborer to show a receipt to the assessor for the current year's taxes on penalty of prosecution. The schedules might be re duced from over one hundred questions to fifty without impairing their efficiency, and to the relief of the assessor and assessed. Then a short form of oath to be administered before the assessment is taken, should be pro vided instead of the bunglesome interrogatories and oath used at present, which allowsone 'te lie and then swear to it.' 'As a teacher, what change would you have in the school law?" 'Have assessors to take enumeration and save thousands of dollars. Make the school age from 0 to IS years and compel all children to attend at least three months in the year. As to the book law the saving to consumers is "all in the eye" wtien we consider the number of books required to complete the course and the inferior quality of the books, many of which were made for other uses and then recovered and sold to us. The geographies, for instance,were made for Minnesota as any one can sec by stripping off the outside cover. What we want is better books and at the prices other books are now sold, we ought to get them cheap, or cheaper than the ones now in use."
