SCRANTON, Miss,
Sept. Ia, 1892.
Editor Democrat-Star:
noticed in your issue of last week, and
also on several han1-bills posted about,
that our municipal board would meet on
the Goth to consider the clause in our
new law relating to separate school dis
tricts.
1t is the opinion of a majority Of our
tax payers that it is rather "a premature
notion Of our board, since IL winter
school must open No yember 1st, or We
lose our term, and it is not certain that
our school house will he completed till
very late in November il the weather
and ever other considerations is favOra-
bic. We cannot build Il school house
sufficient for the comfort and accOmm0-
datiou of our children with less than
$1,000, and a very plain, one-stOry bnild.
ing ut that !: and we have only $500 to
defray the expense of building. After
the building is complete VI will require
seats and desks, b%lackboards and warm
ing stoves, and of course we need money
to buy these things, and some ono must
devise u plan to raise it. Let us sn sgest
that our worthy board defer the question
OF the separate school district till the
school house is built aud furnished, aud
it there is any surplus NJ the treasury at
ter the enormous expuiise of the corpora
ton is defray ed. assist us to pay the
balance OF our indebted ness on our build
ing. .
saw the treasurer's accounts, and the
expenses of the town for this year will be
over $1,000, all to he raised from taxing
the people; $3.50 Of this fund is paid tn
four officers. This town is not rs rich in
revenues and resources us some tOwrs OF
It's size, situated in the midst of rich
farming or mineral districts; and such u
tax is u burden on our taxpayers, with
out counting tho expense Of a separate
school district, for we have II white and u
cOlOred school in our district aud both
have the same privileges, and to create u
white separate district school we must
create u cOlored one too, aud this will on.
ly add an additional burden of taxation
on our citizens, to support both these
schools six months longer. Tho law re-
qnires all separate school districts 10 sup
port each school white and colored) sew
en- months in each, to be- paid by the
town, and two teachers in each, aud per-
hlps three in the white school. Besides.
in all separate school districts, fuel,
cleaning and all care of the school build
ing, grounds aud fences must be paid out
of the town treasury. Respectfully,
TAXPAYER.

FREE COINAGE OF SILVER.

The following letter, published
in the Albuquerque Democrat, is
the only article which has appeared
in the Territorial press on the
subject, which is sillier than the
arguments against free silver pre-
scented by A. w. Harris, Of King
ston. who thinks that free coinage
would be a positive injury to the
interests of silver miners
ALBUQUERQUE, n. NJ, Aug. u, 1892.
To the Editor 81 the Democrati
Your position as TO the free coinage of
silver briggs you face to face, apparently,
in opposition TO the majority Of the vot-
ers Of New Mexico, not alone in the dem
ocratic ranks, but also in the republican
ranks. Now / havo no doubt but that
the majority are very much like myself
very ignorant on that very important
question which is Mt at present adding
~ very much TO the peoples party from
both tire old parties. The question il
by no means a simple one, and il per
plcxes inc very much, and IN that state
OF mind recently, while in conversation
on the subject with a prominent demo
crat and free silver advocate, 1 put th,
question: What will the FREQ coinage
OF silver bill do for US if it becomes
lnw ?" to which no replied: at vii
give us the unlimited coinage Of silver
and in that respect IL will receive th
samo usbage at the mints as gold re
ceiyes now, aud the silver miner can TAX
his bar Of silver 10 the mint aud have Ia
same coined for him, thereby lncreasin
the circulation aud making money cheap.
Now, dear sir, this seems a very simpl
proposition and looks fair on the face {
II. and no doubt pleaEes a great man
who DO not look further into the quel
ton; bus ! do not see it in that ligh.
and the reason why is as follows tn
silver miner produces, We will say 70
example,, ton tons OF ore which contain
silver. He ships il to tho nearest amelteI
where il is carefully sampled and it
found 10 contain 100 c silver pc
