Interpretation of the "Act regulating

queut meetings. of the commissioners and
sGvethecounty some charges for per diem
and mileage. Judge Mahcr in delivering
his sopinlon indicated the following views:
The Constitution limits the disbursing
powers of the boards of county commits.
:ioners strictly to funds for county pur
poses. The laws appertaining to cdu
cational purposes are entirely distinct
and separate from those relating to the
duties of county commissioners. There
is a distinct tax levied for educational
purposes and different set of officers
provided for the management and con
troll of the school funds, which, although
it finds its way into the hands of the
county treasurer is as specific deposit
apart from funds for county purposes. The
taxes raised for purely county purposes
are funds specifically set forth as apple
able to the payhcnt of charges for bri6g-
es public buildings paupcrs, the expenses
attending the administration of Justice
and other county expenditures. ALI the
fund dedicated to educational purposes
are vested in the district boards of
trustees as corporate bodies. The
warrants on this particular corporate
funds must be drawn by the district
school trustees and countersigned by
the county school commissioner.

is not yet known how the government
will dispose of its broken and dishonor

whether n serious effort will be made to
redeem them at present. But the more
men OF the stamp of Governor Chamber
lain there are in public life, the better
is the chance that the question will be
courageously met and honestly settled
in our time. These are grave questions
and worthy Of the best thought and the
best efforts of the thinkers and workers

best judgement of It's rulers. Statesmen
must meet ths issues as they rise, and
strive them as best they can. But they
cannot do it alone. he judgments of
