SENATOR GRAY has offered an
amendment to the senatorial rules
prohibiting the reading of written
speeches, and long quotations from
printed documents. If the amend
ment is adopted, some of the speech
es of members of that body will be
brief in the future, for several U.
S. senators are holding Office because
of their monetary ability and not
on account of their capability or in
tellectuality; more especially is this
the case in the North.

AN IMPOSITION.
Warning TO School Officials by

Two years ago, l gave notice that
there was a man offering for sale
in this county worthless chart cal

stated that the agent was receiving
half the money paid for the work
which information / have from the
publishing house of r. @. Peele d
Co., Chicago, by which this trash is
prepared and sent out,

worthlessness of the work by trying
to use it in the school room. l also
submitted 1t last year to the faculty
teaching the state normal institute
at Jackson and ] was fully sustained
by them in the estimate | had pla-
ced on it after a fair trial. Such a
chart is standing unused in many of
the schools in this county where our
best and most progressive teachers
have taught which is a silent but
most powerful protest against vast
ing the public money for this worth
less material. There is no such
thing in the city schools of Jackson,
and Capt. Thomas HI. Payne, supt.
of the said schools and ex=state
supt. of Tennessee, tells me they
do not have it because they do not
want it. Every intelligent teacher
in the county with whom | have dis
cussed the matter is pronounced
against it. Even if it were ever so
valuable, it is. being sold for three
times what it should cost the schools.
/ did hope that this waste of the
children's money had been exposed
through the press of Jackson and
West Tennessee generally until not
only every school teacher but every
intelligent citizen was fully inform
ed and on his guard.
There are men in this county fill.

sued to-day. says; When accounts of
great strikes and labor demenstra-
tiens crowd all newspapers, it is
idle to look for much improvement
in business. That every week of
idleness for SO many men must APP
preciably lessen the aggregate pow
er to purchase the Prodnct of labor
is evident, but, in spite of all, some
improvement still appears. Several
large sales of textile goods have dis
turbed markets and brought remark
ably low prices for fannels and
blankets about IS per cent. below
the previous quotations, and Is per
cent. below the previous sales. Sales
of wool at the three chief markets
were 5,s4l, 65s pounds, against g.
500, 400 last year, and prices of
some scarce kinds have advanced a
cent, but new wool is being taken
at the lowest figures yet reported.
Continual reports of changes in
the tariff bill add to difficulties of
producers and dealers. Speculative
markets are practicing the philOso-
ply of Mr.. Micawber, and are nat
urally lower. Western receipts of
wheat have been only 1,136, 479
bushels, against 2,717, 3s7 for the
same week last year, and Atlantic
exports GAL, 958 bushels, against l.,
24S. $50 last year, but the price has
dropped one cent. Corn is inactive
and shade higher; pork, lard and
coffee a shade lower. With con-
tinued business depression and new
crops drawing near, even the I'M
limited supplies of idle money do
not kindle speculative hopes.
The decrease in liabilities of firms
falling still continues, and the ag-
gregate report for the third week in
April was only 50, 1872, 462, and for
three weeks of April So, 9ss, 5ss, of
which $3.50, 1914 were of manufac-
turing and SO, e41,O95 of trading
concerns. The failures have been
very equally divided as to sections,
the East having the larger number,
with liabilities of 1927, 900, the
South 80, 572, 900 and the West 49,
1873, 900.
The failures this week have been
$50 in the United States, against
gle last year, for the first time in
many months showing a decrease,
and in Canada twenty-six, against
twenty-five last year. The list in
cludes none of great Importance.
