At tlic ncbool election today the citizens
of Council Bluffs will be called upon to
decide whether or not they want u new
Hleb school building The question of It-
Ruing bunds for a new High school it at
tracting lar more attention than the flec
tion ol two members of the Boarfl of Bdu-
cattoa It anfl unlesB the weather interferes
one of thp largeBt votes ever cast at B
school election In this city Is looked lor
As iB well Uaowu , the vvomen art deeply
interested in tlie new High school propo
sition and they are expected to turn out
in large numbers to can tliolr ballots in
favor ol it
The proposition , vhlch Is one of three
to be balloted on , will appear first on the
ballot und is at ; follows
Tim I'ropOBltloti Shall the Board of Di
rectors Issue bonds ol the district in tb *
( urn of JCfi.OOO the proceeds of the sale of
which , or BO much as may be necessarj. to
be used in the purchase of a site for nnd
the erection of a ntw High school building
thp new site to be selected bj tht Board of
Ti're-tort and to be as centrallv located as
Its Judgment IE possible , the old High
> eel building to be used as a grade
liool building for the accommodation of
i u h children a * can well attend there"
The women will onlv be permitted to vote
on the three pjojiositlont and not on the
candidates In order to avoid confusion a
separate ballot has bcpn prepared tmntatnlnc.
the three propositions alone The women
in order to vote do not have to register
All they will be required to do IE to pre-
ftent themselves at the polling place in their
respective precincts nnd announce their
strett and number
Fnder each of the three propositions will
be the words "Yes" and "No. " The voter
who wishes to cast nls or her .ballot in favor
of the proposition will draw a line through
the word "No ' leaving the "Yes" un
touched In ca"e the voter wishes to cast
the ballot against the proposition he will
mark out the "Yes" and leave the "No"
standing
Tor the candidates tor th < board two bal
lots hnvp been prepared one containing the
names of tie republican nominees. J. P
Hess and C Swalne while on the other vlll
be printed the names of the democratic can
didates Donald Macrae and E P. Searles
The other two propositions that the j > eo-
ple will Ve called tovote upon are as fol
lows
Second Proposition Shall the Boi-rd of
Directory issue bonds of the district in thp
sum of $2 000 the proceeds irf the salp of
which to 1)0 used in the ( purchase of a site
and thp erection of a two-room school hou'-e
in Wtst Council Bluffs commonlv Ijiwwn
" "
as "Cut-Off
Third Proposition Shall there be levied
upon the taxable propertj of the di nci
a tax of Jlu.OOO Ser the school house fund
so much thereof as may lie necessary to lie-
used in pajinent of interest on the bonded
indebtedness of the district *
Unlike nt other e-lections , the city is di
vided into only voting precinctsThe
precincts and -polling jilaces are as follow E
The First precinct consists of the First
ward The polling place will be in the
Wheeler i Hen-Id building , No. 134 East
Broadwav
The Se"ond precinct conslstE of the Second
end ward The jiolling place will be at
Minnick s llv ery barn , No. COG West Broad
way. *
The Third precinct consists of the Third
ward and all of the Fourth ward lying
north of Seventh avenue The jiolling place
will be at B S Terwilliger's llverj 'barn ,
No 2IM South Main street
The Fourth precinct consists of all of the
Fourth ward lying south of Seventh avenue
and all of Ibe Fifth ward The polling
plate will die at the -county voting house on
the corner of Fifth avenue and Twelfth
street
The Fifth precinct consists of the Sixth
ward The ipolling place will ibe at Bland
lUshton s store No 2100 Broacrviny
The polls- will open at 9 a m and will
close at 7 p m
Tie High School cadets have been waging
j n active campaign Jn favor of the propo
sition and committees have been appointed
for every prooinrt tobring the voters out
today and assist the women in marking
their ballots The Uubwomen are also
organized and have arranged for carriages
In every precinct to carry their sister
voters to nnd fem tnelr homes
The women realize that organized effort
is necessary if they are ever to naxe a new
high h-ibuol Should the -proposition fail to
carry today it is very doubtful if the oj > -
I portunity can oacur again , nt least not for
man ? jeara This is due to the fact tiat the
assessed valuation of the schoool district
will ( lie greatly reduced this jear , thus pre
venting an issuance of bonds in the amount
required to Tmild n iiigl school as such
Ksunnce would bring the indebtedness of
the district above the constitutional limit

flrewsofl to an oflteer in the War deparuaeut
I wteh r 'U w-ould cull the attention of tic
president and secretary ol war to this
There i * not less th n 30 per cent ol the
volunteers who houextlj wlnh to rcmuin in
these Inlands and make hutnee here r.nrt rn-
gage in agriculture , lumbering and mining.
Troin e erj point of view this ihould be en
couraged unless America means to haul
down its flag and sneak home The time
will comt vhen exer.v American will n-cog-
nir.t the \alue of tht-iit islands
Tale but one Item Cattle thrlxe litic ,
it is the fluent stock country I i-\er saw
The Orient can be pujiplled with beef irom
here Now thrte soldiers wish to lie flli-
rharced here with travel pajThis will be
thelt capital Those who are In earnast are
willing to do anj-thlng in reason to pro\c
it I btlieve that they would b * > wlllinc to
nerve out a two j cars' enlirtment by transfer
to the regular army if necessarj Thtj-
would , manj of thwn , prefer to be mustered
out herewith nothing rather than be com
pelled to go to the states to be mustered
out There are also many regular sioldlers en
listed under order No 40 Thtse Tien think
tliej should be paid tra\el paif they intend
settling in these islands Now , all of this is
based upon the 3dea that the Vnited Suites
will retain Home sort of interert in thefe
islands Knowing the value of the pioneer ,
I saj deliberately that eat-h of the e plain
soldierE , joung x-lgorous and used to this
climate , by remaining liere will be of in
estimable value to our country The only
way to Amerlcanlzt these islands is bj the
example of American pioneers engaged in
making the homes for themselves
I take no stock in the crj- that men cannot
work in the tropics Thej can worliing for
themselves There are no btalthler people
here than the English and Scotch , nho havt
li\ed here for manj jears At all events
the government has bere now the cream of
American manhood , who are anxious to try
the thing
1 know the regulars as a rult , do not want
to hold these islands , betauBt thej prefer
stations in the states 1 know the majorlt ?
of the -volunteers are homesick and so eolur
their opinions But 1 had rather die here
than see the flag come down and if 1 vas
tventv jrarr vounger I would make mj
home on a farm heie.

very few -varieties sufht'enUy ' tested to be
worthy of introduction A lew. however
were recured The persimmon , the report
BhowK is the most univeiEElly used of ull
the f-uite in Japan This makes the first
inti/crtcuon of the seedless variety of the

The bamboo is used in Japan for an inliniu

Mrs.V. . E PAXTO > , young-lovrn ,
Korth Dakota , writes , about licr Ktrnp-
ple to regain health after the birth of
her little girl :
" DLAE Mits. J'lXEnAis : It itwith
plenbttre that 1 add jnjtebtimonj - to
your list , hoping thul it mny induce
others to avail thenu > elveE of your val-
liable medicine.
"After the birth of my little girl ,
three yeurt. ago , my health vvab very
poor. 1 had leueorrhaca badly , and a
terrible litianug-flou-n pain which
gradually grew w orheuntil I could done
no worlz. Also had headache neaily
all the time , and dizry feelings , . Men-
Etrtiationfe were very profuse , appear
ing every tw o weeks.
" I tool : medicine from n good doctor ,
but it seemed to do no good. I was
becoming alarmed over my condition ,
when J read your advertisement in a
paper. I sent ut onee for a bottle of
Lydiu E. 3'inkhams Vegetable Com-
ponnd , and after taking two-tliirds of
the bottle 3 felt so much better that 1
send for two more. After using three
bottles I felt as strong and w til as any
one.
* ' J think it is the best medicine for
female w eakness ever advertised , and
reiconimend n to everj- lady I meet Btsf-
Jering from this trouble. "
Maternity is a wonderful experience
und many women approach it wholly
unprepared. Childbirth under right
conditions need not terrify vv omen.
Tbe advice of Mrs J'lnLham isfreejy
offered to all expectant mothejrs , and
her advice is beyond qusution the most
TiJnable to be obtained. If Mrs. Paxton -
ton had written to Mrs. Pinkhaxn be
fore confinement she would have been
