It is true that the pooplo expressed a desire for a chango at the last election, thoir wishes should be taken notice of. On the othor hand it might not be just to Mr. Davidson to make this change without. sufficent notice. He has purchased property here and probably has made no arrangements for the future.

In view of this fact, why would it not be well to engage him for the coming year with the understanding that a change would be made next your. Mr. Davidson is an excellent man and has done his best to please all the patrons of the school and we believe the course' suggested above would be just to him and the intorests of the school will not suffor in consequence of his another year.
