Last MvXiday a tai payer's uniting Of
acbool district No. 4 was held for tbe j or
-o.e for levyi g a tax tor rcbx( nd
building purposes. A levy of 71.. mills
wm otianimously voted. Under the
Itresrnt law it isneceesary to Uvy the tax
prior to February 1, in order to have
taxes collected during the ea. Most
everybody at all intews'rd in school
matters knows this fact. At tbe meet
ing held last Monday there were present
eight voters, all of ahum voted in favor of
tbe tax. Last year, ther mere present
at tbe meeting held for the eame pur
pose, seven voters. The n nice ot the
meeting last year was pull she J in the
Review. This yea' nn to: ice was pub
lished in either of the tocal papers.
Bjth year's notice br posliut; a required
by la wa givec. Tne Review, eiill an
gry hecaoM near relative of the editor
was not electtJ one of the teachers, bit
terly abuses the dirt dure, and vilifies
tboee present at tbe meeting for voting a
tax. Everyone living in tbe district at
all familiar with tbe schools know that
additional room is at-sclutely necessary.
More room has been n-ed- d Lt at least
two years. This need bas become im
perative. Tne Review knows this, but
in its conceit, bigotrr and personal
hatred of tbe principal of the school ai d
director of tbe district, it cannot refrain
from throwing mod, and vomiting its
spleen over tbe entire school, and, be
caoce loreoolb, a near relative of its edi
tor did not procure a poeitiou as teacher,
would destroy tbe ecbool iteelf . Such is
tbe breadth of mind and unselfish de
votion to tbe interest o our public
schools of tbe editor oi the Review.
The Review characterize those who
voted the tax yesterday as a "Traver
posh." Tbe followicg taxpayers cad
tbe eight votes at tbe meeting last Mon
day : K. 8. Sheridan, J. G. Flook, H. C.
fctantoo, II. S. Frecch, Finas Dillard, J.
F. Barker, F. W. Wool ley and O.
P. Coahow. Wben the Rtview pub
lished tbe abuse oithore a ho voted the
tax last Monday its editor did not know
wbo cast the votes. Its on-y desire is to
abuse and villify the ecbool manage
ment Verily it is working for tbe iuter

WHAT WAR REALLY IS.
They think they are having war iu
Sooth Africa, tu. when compared with
onr Civil war tbe Bri'isb-Bjer war can
tie called no more than fkirmisbing.
For tbe purpose of companion the fol
lowing statistic of the Civil war which
came from the records of the war de
partment are iutieting:
la one action, one union regiment lest
82 per cent.
Three union regiments loet between
70 and 80 per cent.
Seventeen union regiments lot be
tween 00 and 70 per cent.
For y-ooe union regiments lost be
tween 50 and 00 per cent.
The sever eat loss aas ny confederate
regiment at Gettysburg, 720 out of S00
men, or 'JO per cent.
Auoiher lost in one battle 82 per cent.
Three lost in one little between 00
and 70 r ce.it.
Nine loit in one battle beUeen 50 and
CO per cent.
Tweuty-nine lo t u one otitic oyer 0
per c at.
Lonystreei' division lost at GaincV
Mill and G:er.da! 4,-133 out of 8.831
men, or over 53 per cent. Several di
vision lost in some one a:; ion over 40
per cent. Tbe ri! of killed and wound
ed during tbe f jur years of our ci' il
war, tonh and c uth, wis 0Y4) men a
day. Tbere was over 2.400 actions of
sufficient importance to ! identified by
name. Iu 1.8H2 of these a regiment or
more was engaged. In 112 ol these
actions tbe log exceeded 500 tuen. This
does not count the innumerable small
affairs on the picket line and outpost
service, in scouting and reconnoitering
duty.
Tbe total death in the north was
300,000, in the south nearly as much.
This excludes those who died at home
as a result of exposure, wounds or dit
eaee after discharge. Couotiug these,
tbe loss in lour years ex ceoded 900, COO
men. This from a papulation of 30,000,
000, north and south, of winch 4,000,000

wbo are so happily tn;t ruined that it
appears more like a huuic circle than a
hotel, due to the s-iavi y and genial

We note much activity in every line of

on each creek is peopled by active, in
dustrious people, wbo make rapid in
roads in timber destruction every day.

Threats had been made against all of !
tnem, and it was thought tbe wisest
thing for them to remain where tbey
were until tbe excitement had somewhat
abated. This morning not a member of
tbe legislature knew whether or not the
body would be permitted to meet in the
capitol building. They decided, how
ever, to meet at tbe Capitol hotel and
march in a body to the capitul.
C'.erk L, of the h nse, with Repre

ulvaoce guard, ar.d at 9:40 pre$ecteJ

tol groundj I'ron beir.g identified they
were allowed to paei into the the capitol.
Not a soldier was visible outside the
building, bat inside long lines ol infantry
were drawn up on each side of the hall,
with bayonets fixeJ. Colonels Williams,
in command of tbe troops, banded a copy
of tbe governor's proclamation to each
member of ths house as they pa;sd
in.
When the main body of legislators
came tramping through the doorway,
tbey were stopped by tbe soldiers and
not allowed to proceed upstairs. Loud
cries and exclamations Silcd the air, and
Colonel Williams, mounting halfway up
the stairs, shouted:
'.Gentleman, I hold in my bands a
prcsrlauiation issued by tie governor of
Kentucky, which I will read."
He then real the proclamation iu a
loul voice. Loud cries of iodignttion
from the democratic members followed
reading of tbe proclamation. The.! some
one shouted : f
"We are dealing with a pack of heath
ens and hounds; let's go to the opera
house."
Shouts of approval greeted 'this pro
posal and out of the door down tbe broad
steps 6t reamed the crowd, hastening
along toward the cpera house. Clor e be
hind came General Collier on the run.
Ileshont.ol orders to Lieutenant-Colonel
Gray, who was tlsnding on tbe steps.
A few quick orders were given by tbat
officer, and away toward the opera-hou?e
rushed the soldiers. There was a pa
rade. Every man went as though run
ning to a fire. They ran np the miJdle
of the street and easily distanced tbe
tbe legislator", wbo touk tbe sidewalk.
When the lawmakers arrived, all they
obtaiued for their run of a quarter of a
mile was the privilege of standing on tbe
op;o'ite side of tho street and gazing
at the opera-hou.se, the front of which
was occupied b a panting line of ncl
diers it double tank with fixed bayonets.

It is because of his vast practice that the
doctor is so well fitted to successfully treat
every f.irtu of disease. Do not feel that

paid for not his advice.
