County High School Question

"Alone 'n its tight on school."—
"The Mulhall Enterprise savs that
h DQOveinant is on foot among several
township to "rid the county of the
Logan county high school mainten-
ance and turn the school over 10
Gntitrin " The Enterprise savs. ' the
school is patronized by less than 10
pupils with an expanse of $450." The
Enterprise is'alone in iis Contention
No one outside nf a fev* in Mulhall

Now we have no idea the "Leader"
will sav that the Enterprise was aione
in this contention, if Indeed ii will
give os the smallest credit for bring
iog about lots result As we were
not alone in using Influence for toe
repeal of the law so now, we are imt
alone. And no.long but blind se'tisli-
ishness and utter disregard for tne
