SECOND AND CENTHAL THE .JUNE SCHOOL EJECTION ON JUNE jyth will occur tho annual Marshfleld school elec tion. This la a very Import ant olcctlon, nnd Is always pulled off on schedule- wlicnovor a quorum of voters can bo rounded up. Tho usual program Is nhout as follows: Matt Stonliolm goes Into tho Central School about 7:110 mid, rings tho bell. A lltllo later J ml go" Hall and tho three school directors clump lu, Superintendent Tledgen arriving about tho sanio time. Then they sit nround wnltlng for tho voters to bogln to ajsoinblo. About eight o'clock Judgo Hall goes up htiilrs to tho tolcphoiio and calla up a dozen or so good cltlcns, lu or der to obtain a quorum ot seven, as required by law. j Thus a grateful public pays Its It llnito to the solf sacrificing work or throe directors who servo with out pay, and an underpaid clerk. Also tho public discharges, In tho same hearty mnnner, Us duty to It self In scolng Hint tho right kind ol men are always oloctnd to office. It any ono wants to put lu a dark home, all ho I1M3 to do Is to tip off to about n dozen peoplo on tho qulot what Is up. Out of this uumhor uo inoro than eight or Kino persona need to romombor tho dato and bo thoro lu ordor to elect any one they may Iibvo In mind. Thus the public allows Its rchuKo or approval, aa tho caso may be, to fall upon tho policy of tho school board by tho voice of a handful. The puoplo learn about tho election next dny, when tho result lj pub lished In tho papers. All tho frlonds of tho defentod candidate (If thoro Is a contest nt all) toll him thoy aro sorry, nnd ho fools that thoy aro vory good to him. Tho Doostor haa no candidate It la not Its provlnco to enter Into controvoray. All that stuff Is left to tho editor, who rosorvoa to him self tho most Important Bpaco In tho paper, right under tho subscription rates. Hut tho Doostor would like to sco tho public take moro of an 1 11 to rust lu au election which Is aoeond lu Important to no local election. If tho policy ot tho present Bchool board Is satisfactory to tho majori ty, tho majority would rind It to Its Interest to say so at tho polls, and retain the prosout hoard. If It 13 not, It Is equally Important that no mlstako bo made In olecting other men to tho office. Wo don't say such mlutukos liuvo boon mado lu tho past. Hut thoy might 'bo, and they could havo boon, any tlmo, for all tho Intoroit tho public has dis played. Tho Doostor trloa to bo nil its uamo Impllos, and It would bo tick led almost to death If n real, rop rcsentatlvo voto could drag Itself out nt tho next school election.
