Opliger is naturally well pleased with the fact that Governor Ralston has signed the bill extending the time of the county superintendents two years. This will allow him to serve four years from next August, instead of to June, 1915, and will give him nearly twelve years in the office. The bill was passed to avoid the trustees and superintendent going into office practically at the same time and thus disturbing the schools. The superintendent today grante-d the prayer of petitioners from St. ; Mary’s township to remove the school lin district number one, 600 feet. A new and modern school building is to ,j be erected there this summer. The hearing on the Root township centra- , lizing question has been postponed. J o UNCLE HEZEKIAH OBSERVES.
