(Saturday night s rnin was one
the heaviest we have bad in
some time. The meeting of the
board of education was not held
owing to the heavy downpour, and
the social at John Snider's was a
failure for the same reason. Some
of the Montague pionio party passed
through here near midnight thor
oughly soaked, but they said they

cluded. The teachers for Sandyston for
the ensuing year will be as follows :

the death of eight averaging

A member of our school board
and one who has kept the bonrd in
turmoil for years endeavored to get
in some of his fine work at last Mon
day night's tneoting. The way the
board sat down on the troublesome
member was a caution and his
defeat was ao complete that after
the vote he had to perambulate into
the fresh air in order to know
whore he was at, and when he came
to he quietly got Into hia wagon
and meandered in the direotion of
Tuttle's Corner.
The last spring's town election
will pass into history as the "rum
election" And I am not sure that
not a little of the "long green"
figured in with the rum. Rum was
plenty and it was the fighting kind,
too, and if the purchaser of some of
that mm is corroct in what he tolls
the writer, rum was sold that elec
tion day in large quantities. It is
time such work was stopped and
the sooner some action is taken
to suppress such doings the better
for the township.
