Fortney of this place, unanimous on the fact test Prof. Fortney presented the strongest recommendations and cre­ dentials, having life certificates both for common, and high schools under the phij law when examinations were required. ' , / The Jaw states the salary shall not be tew than $1000 but as Prof. Fort­ ney has been receiving $1,500 here it could not be, expected that he. would assume the additional work for. the. same salary. My, Collins informed the hoard that Prof, Fortney would not Mgaider the .position at les'g than Messrs, Luce and Thomas objected to that high a salary, Finally after bauofmig.it. was, decided to offer the place to Prof. Fortney at $1,650. He was called in and. asked to Stpte, hie .views on his election, at that salary. He declined the offer and thanked the board for their consideration of him for the .place, After several ballots •the board vated to pay the $1,800. CedamHe and Ross townships were anxious to secure Prof. Fortney to establish the work in the new school buildings.

The people complained for years of the manipulations of politicians in conventions and that the public had nothing to say^aa to who should be J i candidate, To remedy this evil a primary lawf was passed so that any­ one candidate could have equal chance with the other.

In afx or eight years the streets were boauti* fully{?) macadamized and the town lifted out oi the mud. Before the last streets'Were finished the first were needing apd being repaired: and until the present system' of paying was begun the town was at constant expense each year repair- to i the macadam. , After an experience of 27 years withtoacadam during which tfmel this streets had: been repaired many times add replaced three times with heWmacadam Borne better-method vrfissought for street paving, ' Tho movement met with hitter opposition ffom some of the-largh taxpayers who claimed that the old mficadam style was good enough' and that .the’coat Of paying would' bankrupt the town. . „ Goiincil in 1906determined to pro­ ceed with about $25,000 worth oi Street paving as a starter.
