U. G. Brown and 'P. N. South-
arcl of Ansley arc in the city today - '
day trying to find some means ot
si'ltling a light over the school ,
in district No. f > 7. Mrs. Kav
Jones , who taught the school
last year , wan hired again this
var by Director S. C. Thompson
and Treasurer Lewis Ktilhauek.
Moderator U. ( } . Brown objected
to hireing her and reused ! to
sign the contract.
A petition asking Hie school
hoard not to hire her was then
circulated and twenty-two people
in the district signed it. A part
of these , so the friends of Mrs.
Jones claim , were not school
patrons. About this time Di
rector S. C. . Thompson resigned
and moved to S u 111 n e r.
Kulhanek and Brown , the two
remaining members of the board
appointed T. N. Southard to fill
to vacarcy. Southard joined
with Brown and wanted to hire
another teacher but the contract
had been signed by the Director
ami Treasurer thus making Mrs.
Jones legally entitled to teach
the school.
Mrs. Jones has taught the
school now for about a month
despite the efforts of Brown and
Southard to secure a change in
teachers. About nine pupils
have been attending the school
C3r
Republican Candidate for County Attorney
and the parents of about twenty-
nine other children of school
age refuse to allow their child
ren to attend. Under ordinary
circumstances perhaps fifteen of
these twenty-nine would .attend.
Brown and Southard have
made two previous trips to Brok
en Bow to get Superintendent
Pinckney to interfere in the
light and settle it , but the Coun
ty Superintendent says that
there is nothing that he can do.
They base their objection TO her
on the ground that she does not
keep order in the school and
Pinckney advised them to go to
her and lay down a reasonable
set of rules for the government
of the school and then if she
refused to enforce these laws it
would constitute a legal cause
for dismissal. Brown and South
ard say that they went up to the
school house last Tuesday to
take up some supplies and to dis
cuss with her the question ol
some rules for the maintainauce
of order. When school closed ,
instead of taking up the matter
with them , Mrs. Jones went
home and left them. On an
other .occasion they claim that
their efforts to get a hearing
I have on , my Eanch eighteen miles south of
Broken Bow 100 head of well "bred Hereford Cows
ranging from three to seven years old. These
cows are not registered herefords but they are
the product of fourteen years of my careful hand
ling and "breeding. I started my present herd
in 1894 with a fair grade of Hereford ! Since
that time I have tryed in "breeding and handling
my cattle to constantly raise this standard and
have for ten years ken "breeding to pure bred Here

were unseccessful and they uoti-
led her to quit the school.
Mrs. Jones' friends say that
ihc taught a good school last
fear and that the oposition to
icr now is due to personal mo-
.ives. J. B. Jones , since Brown
mil Southard notified her to quit
he school , called Southard out of
us house and threatened him
jcrsonal violence unless he al-
owed his daughtor-inlaw , Mrs.
lay Jones , to go ahead with the
cliool unmolested and he has
ilso notified Brown that he must
> c more careful.
Superintendent Pinckney has
-.uggested a compromise , which
was agreeable to Brown and
Southard , and he will meet Mrs.
fones , the teacher , in Ansley
omorrow and try and j > et her to
igree to the compromise.
Traveling men for Taft.
One of the many traveling
uen who visit Broken Bow in
talking over the political bitu-
ition with the editor said that
ic did not see how Nebraska
could go for Bryan or how he
could possibly be elected presi
dent. He has been all over the
state and he said that he found
four-fifths of the business men
were for Taft , many of then
being Democrats who were
afraid to risk a change at this
time.
Almost a Blaze.
Friday afternoon the straw
and trash in Ira Glaze's barn
yard on the north side caught
fire from sparks from a passing
train and for a few moments it
looked as though his barn would
go up in smoke , but willing
hands and the fire company soon
had it out. There was a strong
south wind blowing and had the
barn caught fire there would
have been no saving it and pos
sibly several more buildings in
that section of the city.
