W.e have to take it for granted that the proprietor of this plpce considers bis friend, the de feated cniididute, a “ heavy-weight”,' one who carries weights in his boots to keep him steady. We. will agree with him, for from all reports his rec­ ord at Columbus during bis stay cer­ tainly entitles him to the’ term of n “ heavy-weight.” We canpot express for all, but for ourselves we.do not care ,to have that class in onr legislative bodies,’ We do notltake much stock in these men that have to carry u gauge or two in orders to be a-heavy-weight, or to •be one o f the boys,’:or one of those jolly good fellows.

We would like for the “ ring** supporter, the man-who conducts a hotel, gambling room and saloon, to make a comparison be­ tween -his “ heavy-weight” . and the country jake “ light-weight.” fflteview With Member of School Board. While in conversation with a prom­ inent merchant and a member of the school, board in regard to the outlook for the change in the public school building, he says that lie would never sanction the expenditure of a penny for & new addition to the present building. lit* reason is ibat-thepres­ ent site is not a desirable one, owing to the noise abont the institutiCn.^and the sanitary conditions nothing the best. He was asked as to what he consid­ ered the best plait under the circum­ stances. The reply was “ I f possible,, sell the present building and lot to some manufacturing concern that might be induced to locate here. Ow* JU 4 to the positlou along the railroad it would make a first class' manufac­ turing site. Then apply the proceeds towards another location With a much improved ahd modern building.” We think tills a very good idea and would suggest that the business men of the town get together and form an organization for the purpose o f bring­ ing. manufacturing coflcermr here. We understand there is quite a num­ ber of concerns over the country that are seeking locations in the smaliey places where rents, taxes and insur­ ance are much cheeper. They al£o want aWsy from the cities, owing to labor difficulties always arising, Now is the time to strike m be able to get a few o f the concerns interested and in line for spring. The business men of the town certainly realize the great value the paper mill has been to the place, Had wo a half dozen such concerns that rim as steady as the Hagar fltraw Beard A Ifopef Go,, you would find the old town ofCedar- vlfie a hum o f industry.

The story of “ The Night Before Christmas” , the beautiful pastoral dra­ ma which comes ,toCedqr /file Novem­ ber ,14 is a most unique one and the author has furnished the mn'gnificani cast producing this play every oppor tunity for intense dramatic action; The story opens in a country farm house where John Philipps, Jr., the drunken son of Judge John Phillips has been seut to reform.,. He hasbeen at this form house for almost a year and though surrounded by the benign influence of his Quaker grandmother he has failed to effect the reformation desired. The story opens on"thenight before Christmas and his father, the Judge, is,expected home.to attenc the wedding of a friend. When the Judge and ehis wife arrive, there geueral rejoicing in the neighborhood, for he is held, in high, esteemby the citizens of the community. Jack, the son-, greets him and is reprimanded for his bad habits and tells his.father that there is one way he can reform. That is fay his beidg allowed to marry Mar­ ion Williams, the belle of the neigh- mrhood, with whom he is greatly in ove. The Judge forbids this mar* riage on the grounds that there .‘is cloud over the girl’s birth, and while thev are talking Marion Williams lerself appears at the door and hears the conversation about her. She mdekly submits to the causticCriticism of thB father and the boy, when she starts home, against his lather’swishes goes with her. The father is angered at the action of his son but his feelings are swallowed up in the greetings-gry en him by his" old friends" and neigh­ bors and they allstart for the wedding while some of the party decide to go to the Covenater church to help with the Christmas decorations. Jack and Marion return to the house and their conversation is inter­ rupted by' the appearance of Bud Means, the country “ bully.” He is in love with Marion also and when he finds Jack Phillips has won Marion’s heart, he insultingly recalls the cloud over her birth and for bis impudence is knocked down by Jac1' He swears vengeance. Jack and Marion go on to the church where Marion -assists with the decorations, As all the old folks are about to leave, Bud Means Ofk. V appears again on the' scene and find­ ing Marion alone in tho church, at­ tempts fo force from her a promise of marriage and, failing in this, he de­ clares he will make her unfit for any man’swife. Jack fortunately appears about this time and Bud is soundly thrashed outside tha church, As he comes to his senses Joe Miller, now a tramp, appears on the scene and rec­ ognizes Bud as the man who had in­ duced hist wife to leave home and whom afterwards Bud Means cruelly murdered. Joe has come to the old Covenanter churchyard this night to visit his wife’s grave anI liad swOrh to kill the man who wrecked his home if he ever met him, lie bad picked up a knife which Jack had dropped while out cutting holly for the decora­ tions and with this knife in band, he recognizes the betrayer of bis borne, calls him to accolint and finally stabs him to death. Bud. falls in the same spet where Jack had knock him down And Marion Williams, standing in the church door, dimly Bees the murder. She screams and faints and Jack rushes out and, bending over the body of Bud Means declares that be has killed him, Joe Miller has escaped without being recognized. ' Jack is arraigned for murder,, In an Unpar- alelled couH-room sceue in which bis father is compelled to iry the Son for murder, Jack is convicted and sen­ tenced to be electrocuted. Joe Mil­ ler perjures himself and declares that Jack is the murderer and the third act dose by the father sentencing bis own son, In the meantime Jud Phillips Is elected Governor "bf the state ami the queslion o f pardon- for son is argued pro and con by bath the attorneys in the case ami the friends and euimies of the accused, but the Governor, with bis high aence of honor, after the Supreme court has r That The School Board Must Prepare to Furnish MORE SCHOOL ROOM. Present Quarters Greatly Crowded.— Committee Appointed to Investi­ gate.—Citizens Must Stand , ' by the Board. . There was a -meeting o f -school board in the Mayor’s office, on Mon­ day evening for the purpose of mak­ ing some preparations towards better. accommodations for the pupils of- the first three rooms, To these ropma ■ alone there are in the neighborhood of 140 pupils. Rooih number three seems- to be the-moBt crowded, Miss Duffield having 63 pupils. The school board realizes that it is almost impossible foi; a teacher to handle that many pupils in'the lower grades in a satisfactory manner. I t is almost impossible to keep theroom the proper temperature and have it ven­ tilated as it should be. Messrs. Da-' vid McFarland and Robert Gray were appoiuted a committee to investigate and see what could be done; There was some - talk- of hiring -another teacher and renting a room out in Sa®eather. pai't of \ school here,'but the committee'found it would cohie in-contact with mady disagreeable things and dropped that idea. In conversation with the mCm- >era of the committee we learned that " it is the intention now to put part of. the pupils that are now in number ^ back in number two, and part ber two back to dumber one. b would cause an overcrowded m for number one, but the com* ittee,,to arrange for this, has decid­ ed to only have school a half dey in -:he first room, part Of the pupils in thefirst room, part of the pupils in afternoon,. This plan is already in vogue in Cincinnati and Columbus «s well as many smaller places. Our 'reateat educators contend that four lours’ school is long eflough for a be- . gidner. We think, the committee baa acted wisely in adjusting the above plan, for it would almost be impoasi- >1e to hire another teacher as the ward is very close on finances. r . As predicted in the H eraiyd this ail, after the opening of school it was evident,that the board would have to ake steps for enlargement o f tbe milding before the opening o f another School year. At present the enroll­ ment is about 295, the largest enroll-; raenfc in the history of the school, and and it is expected to go beyond the- threehundred mark after coldweather setsin, • A t the time the present building was erected, no doubt tbe situation as jood as could be procured, but in this late day of advancement and improve­ ment we have growing industries about the institution that are bother­ some. Next, tbe present building was never built with Any intention o f • extension, for should an addition be built It would spoil one or more o f the present rooms. The board will have this question to,settle and they might as well make preparations for a change. foiled to reyerise its decision, refuses to interfere ia tbe case. Splendid Opeatag.
