Heiney returned from Topeka a few days ago, where he had been to consult the State Superintendent of Schools regarding the best methods of procedure in getting the new rural high school building proposition before the people. Petitions are being circulated requesting the high school board to call for an election to vjflte bends in the sum of $15,000, fa the erection of a new high school building. We understand' there is different opinions among various patrons of the school district. While all are in favor of a new building, some would favor the money being raided by a special tax rather than by the sale of bonds. There is not much difference, yet we believe the bond issue would be less complicated and quicker.

In voting for a new court house in Sheridan county last fall both propositions were on the ticket, special tax winnin over the bond Time is precious and we hoje before the next issue of our the election will have been called.

Messrs. Barn, Hanson and Snteliffe each took an an to loud over to witness the games.

This was the first time many of the party had been in the auditorium of the new high school building, and they pronounce it. tine. The coroner's inquest at Hays last Saturday, resulted in Lena Kituh'rkm cht and her brother, John, being charged with first Uegiee murder and were released on $5,000 bond for the death of Fred Ilichardson, who was shot by Lena Monday and died Wednesday. It will be remembered that Mr. Richardson was shot the same day he left Grain-field, by the sister of a girl with whom he had been keeping company for the past year.

It developed at the inquest that Richard son was wanted at Hebron, Neb for wife and child abandonment. He was taken to Thayer county, for interment. For three months we had been very intimately acquainted with Mr. Richardson, having boarded at the same hotel. Yet we can bring forth no sympathy for him.

We pity the girl who he deceived and ruined by false promises) but our sincere sympathy goes to the wife and child deserted and 'af terward so shamefully disgraced. is hardly probable that Richards would have been punished for these crimes by law, and no one can deny but that he deserved punishment, and as it was a sister of Richard's victim that metqd out thu punishment, we are afraid that if we were on the jury trving the case our vote would be "justifiable limiiiiMimttimiiHi i Rev.
