President Coolidge and Attorney General Daugherty oppose suppressing free speech but favor securing order and transportation. Railway executives deny any peace talks with Jewell or Johnston and reiterate unity behind the August 23 platform.

Bids for Jackson township school house rejected as too high
Bids received last Thursday for the proposed Jackson township school house ranged from 95000 to 120000 dollars and were all rejected for cost. The low bidder had earlier offered a price about 20000 dollars lower before months of delays raised material costs. The township has already spent over 1000 dollars repairing the old furnace and faces further trouble before winter ends. The page also notes Roanoke Chautauqua’s financial failure with twenty eight signers paying ten dollars each and critics blaming poor programming and shifting tastes.
