The close of the schools through
out the state again recalls the unsatis-
factory condition of the public school
finances and the losses entailed upon
teachers from inability to get their
pay promptly. 1t is reported that
there are now unpaid warrants re-
gistered by the state treasurer ag-
gregating S370,000. And this not
withstanding the reduced per capita
apportionment made. This condi-
ton of affairs should have been RENE
died at the last session of the legisla-
ture. 1t has been suggested in the inter
est of the teachers that the apportion-
ment be further reduced. But this
would be at the cost of the children
and would 80 shorten the school term
as to make it practically worthless.
The proper remedy lies in q legisla.
ture more alive to the Importance of
Observation-Disclosures.

This cause celebre came on for q
hearing before the supreme court at
Austin and was decided in favor OF
receivers Bonner and Eddy. The
history of the litigation is thus stated;
jaw Gould brought suit in the dis
trict court OF Smith county against
the International and Great Northern
railway company on q debt for S45O,'
900. The Missouri, Kansas and Tex
as, claiming to be q shareholder, in-
tervened and asked that receiver be
appointed. Mitchell and Others in.
teryened as creditors and also prayed
for a receiver. On the 10th day OF
February, 1889. appellants were APP
pointed receivers upon the applica-
ton of the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas; the court had doubts about its
power to appoint them on the petit
ton OF Mitchell and others, Gould
obtained judgment on the llth OF
March which established lien on
tho earnings. The Missouri, Kansas
and Texas then withdraw from the
suit and the court granted motion
by Gould to continue the receiver,
ship. Appellee Hearne was appoint
ed by the district court of Anderson
county on a petition filed March ~,
1889. The court holds that the
withdrawal of the plea of the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas did not have the
effect to vacate the appointment OF
receivers. Reversed and rendered
for the appellants. The opinion was
rendered by Judge Gaines.

Prohibition Lives.

The Prohibitionists ore like the
honest portion of the old Anti-Slavery
party. They fight against what they
conscientiously believe to be not an
evil only but sin. They are in the
cause, not for profit, not for power,
not for political preferment, but for
justice, right and humanity as they
understand the issue. The Adolf.
tionists regarded it as q crime to hold
human beings in slavery. The Pro-
hibitionists regard it as crime to
hold human beings in the slavery of
ardent spirits. There could be no
compromise with the honest Adolf
ZIONIST short of the extinction of hu-
man servitude. There can be no
compromise with the honest Prohibi-
ZIONIST short of the eradication of the
liquor traffic.
The opinions o! leading Prohibi-
tionists in several of the States, which
we publish to-day, sustain the opin-
ion that the Prohibition party is in
destructible. Gen. Fisk, Of New
Jersey; William I. Wardwell, OF New
York., Murray H. Graydon, of Penn
sylvania; the Rev. DR.. Swallow, Gen.
Neal Dow, Senator Frye, A. S. Bangs
and other leaders agree on one point
that the reverses in Pennsylvania
and Rhode Island "will only stimu-
late the Prohibitionists to new efforts
and spur them up to the old-time
vigor." Gen. Fisk says, 1--WE shall
gain strength through these very re-
suits" and Senator Frye predicts
that "within a few years a National
election will be fought on the ques-
ton Of the abolition Of the liquor
traffic
The Prohibition party is not dead,
and the Republican managers Will
discover that fact in the next cleo
York World.

Prohibition in Kansas Does Prohibit.

A correspondent of the Greenfield,
Indiana Democrat writes that paper
from Kansas as follows:
I am in the State nearly all the
while, and I have visited nearly every
town in the eastern half of the State,
and 1 can tell yow ,ohether prohibi-
ton prohibits. I am no crank; no
sickly sentimentalist. Had l been
in Kansas when it adopted the pro
hibitory law I should voted against it..
It is very radical law, and I don't
like the principle as principle. But
I was in this State before it had pro-
hibition. 1 have travelled over it
time and again since; I have travelled
over twelve or fourteen other States,
and prejudiced as I am against the
principle of prohibition, if I had to
vote to-day for or against, I should
vote for prohibition, There is whis-
ky drank in Kansas, of course, just
as there are horses stolen and men
murdered. Men who have formed
the drinking habit get their bitters
still. There is not an open saloon in
the State, but there are dives where
it may be had by going through al
legs and corridors, doors and stair
ways, until you are lost. But you
can't get it there unless you are in
troduced by somebody who Stands
in, aud unless you are supposed to
be discreet. The effect of proeibi-
ton is to keep whisky away from
boys. The old generation may die
drunkards; few of the new genera
ton may; but the thousands will not
have formed the habit. I do not see
an average of one drunk man in Kan
sas per month. | see them in Missouri
and in high license Nebraska every
day. 1 never see q boy drunk in
Kansas. You will find the effect, too,
on the docket of police courts and
district courts. 1t will amaze you.
You seldom find crime traceable to
intoxication as cause now, where they
were abundent before. Kansas law
yers know this, because it has ma
terially reduced their income. But I
will drop the subject. 1 do wish to
say, however, that my testimony is
absolute, because 1 was preudiced.
l wish to say further that the Demo
cratic party of Kansas, as we'll rs the
Republican party, would vote to sus-
tain the law, regardless of platforms,
and the sooner the leaders cut loose
from the saloon element the longer
will their leadership be respected.
Indiana can do as she pleases about
her liquor traffic so far as 1 am con-
cerned, because am not in the lee.
tn re business. But / do want to say
that if the last man on earth, when
his hands have grewn feeble and his
eyes dim with approaching death, will
open the statutes of Kansas he will
find the prohibitory law still there in
letters so large that his feeble eyes
can read. Enough.

Ths Texas immigration movement,
which promised so much short year
ago, is dead. The following dispatch
from Austin chronicles its demise:
The State immigration bureau,
which has been located here ever
since the immigration convention in
North Texas, closed up to-day for
want of funds. The money promis-
ed for its support from the different
districts and counties has not been
paid. Colonel f. B. Chiffon, the
efficient secretary of the bureau, ex.
presses great regret OF the popular
apathy displayed toward this project.

Unreasonable efforts by labor to
