Show iu; THE COUNTY SCHOOL BONDS AGAIN. Regarding tho sale ot thoso county school bonds, to which thero has been more or less rcrerenco, our esteemed contemporary tries to put us In tho tho position of having n "grouch against the local banks," and wonders "whether thero has occurred some-whoro some-whoro a punctilio of tho overdraft, a strlcturo or tho credit or something of that kind." Well now thero Is no one, so far ns wo are able to know, on the Itepubllcan Btatf that was born rich, and up to dato none ot us have had riches thrust upon us. Wo nro in that class that buys goods rrom banks. Hanks couJd not run were it not tor such ns wo. In other words It be-comes be-comes necessary for us to borrow money. Sometimes we havo on over draft. Tho distinguished financiers on tho staff of tho .loiunal nro perhaps differently "hooked up," und If so, the banks would bo put out of business busi-ness were all as wealthy as they, or perhaps they can't borrow, and can't get overdrafts. As to that we do not care. Hut notwithstanding the above admissions on our pail wo aro free to say we do not owe any one on the Journal staff, or any of their relatives, o.io cont. It we do wo'll risk tho overdraft over-draft to an extent of paying the bill, so como on neighbor let's havo it. This subterfuge, however, simply adds another to tho attempt to obscure tho main issue. Wo repeat that the question has nothing to do with banks. It Is not tho plensuro of banks, bonding houses, or boards ot education, educa-tion, but a matter ot dollars nnd cents to the peoplo ot Cache county. Tho question Is DID THE BOARD OF EDUCATION LITERALLY GIVC AWAY THREE OR FOUR HUNDRED HUN-DRED DOLLARS OF THE PEOPLE'S MONEY AT THIS BOND SALE? It Is a slmplo question nnd can bo easily eas-ily unswejod by tho PRESIDENT CF THE BOARD OF EDUCATION. WHY ALL THIS SILENCE? ARE NOT THE PEOPLE ENTITLED TO KNOW' We Ua e heard several versions uf th proceedings, but think It should come from the proper source. President Sylvester Lowe will you PLEASE ANSWER? AN-SWER?
