took advantage of B. F. Hughes, who
was so busily engaged putting up a
building that he did not attend the
election, and hard rustling on Mr.
Brewer's part, assisted by his friend,
Uncle Joe, lie came within ten vot
of beating B. F. Hughes. A levy of
15 mills was recommended and a nine
months term of school. The llnancia
condition of the West Side school is
greatly improved, the old board hav-
ing paid all of last year's running ex-
penses and a *1,000 of old outstanding
warrants. Another year of good
management will put the West Side
school district in a good financial
condition.
The East Side Public School elec-
tion was held last Tuesday afternoon,
L. J. Edwards being re.elected direc-
tor. A levy of H mills and a term of
nine months recommended. The re-
port of the secretary of the school
board showed the district to be in a
good financial condititlon, having no
warrant indebtedness and a cash
sum in the treasury of over $2,100.
The enrollment, last year was 020.
An additional teacher has been em-
ployed for the ensuing year. The
alary of the principal has been rais-
ed $7.50 per month and the pay of the
janitor raised $5.00 per month. In
view of the fact that the district re-
ceived nothing from the railroad tax
last year, the same being in litiga-
tion at the present time, and liable
to be paid into the district treasury,
it was thought by the patrons of the
school that an 8 mill levy would be
ample, even if the valuation this
year does show a falling olT of nearly
$100,000. The total expenditures last
year amounted to $5,300 in round
numbers and the board estimated that
expenditures next year will not lie to
exceed $0,000, in which case, an 8
mill levy is ample to meet it.

ng on a business trip to Chicago. Dr.

The Special Bargains
Customers have secured at our Store during our
Midsummer Clearing Sale, have started the peo-
ple to talking about the bargains they have se-
cured at the Grand Leader, and as a result cus-
tomers have flocked to our store for the past two
weeks and have carried away the greater part of
the goods we desired to clear out; but we still
have some of the stock left in some of the lines ad-
vertised, and we will continue the sale until the
advertise stock is closed out.
We have been too rushed this week waiting on
customers and celebrating the Fourth to go over
the goods left that we desire to close out and quote
prices again this week, but while they last the bar-
gains will remain and you can secure them by
