viii Again Be the Subject of Discus
sion in the Senate TO-Day---COn-
tested Election Cases in Both
Houses.

Washington, March S.-The Cuban
question will be revived in the Senate
Monday on the proposition to accept
the report of the conference committee
agreeing to the House resolutions.
There is a possibility of considerable
debate upon the subject, but on the
other hand the report may be accepted
after but brief exchange of views. 1t
is believed that under no circumstances
the question will be prolonged beyond
Monday, and there is little doubt that
the House resolutions will be agreed TO.
The Dupont-Delaware election case
also will continue TO receive attention
during the week. Senator Turpie will
speak on Monday in opposition TO the
seating of Mr.. Dupont, and Will be fol-
lowed when opportunity affords by eth
er Senator Pritchard or Senator Chan
dler for Dupont. 1t is not believed that
the debate on this question will be con-
Guided during the present week.
The bill to prevent the determination
of the Alaskan seals has been made the
special order for Thursday next, but
whether it will be taken up at that time
will probably depend upon whether an
amicable arrangement can be made
concerning the Dupont case. There Is
no disposition on the part Of the man
ayers of the seal bill TO prevent con-
tinued consideration Of the Dupont mat
ter. The seal bill will provoke dis
cussion when reached. 1t is under
stood to be Senator Morgan's purpose TO
discuss it at length.
Senator Butler has given notice o. a
speech on Wednesday on his bill to pro-
hibit the further issuance Of govern
ment bonds.
If the Committee on Public Lands
gets in its report on the Arizona land
bill, recommending its passage over the
Presidents veto, it may be taken up
and it will probably arouse consider
able discussion.
The House this week will continue
work on the appropriation bills and dis
pose of one, possibly two, of the pending
contested election cases. The postof-
flee appropriation bill will, it is
thought, be passed tomorrow. The
naval appropriation bill is the next sup
ply bill in order.
During the week the Aldrich Robbins
case, from the Fourth Alabama district,
the report OF which is against the Demo
cratic contester, will be called up and If
time is offered the report of the COM
mittee in the Benoit-Boatner case,
from the Fifth Louisiana, declaring the
seat occupied by Mr.. Boatner vacant,
will also be acted uDOn

Charleston. W. Va, March S.-The
State Board Of Agriculture, through its
secretary, Hon c. c. Brown, is making
an effort to secure the passage Of a bill
by Congress providing that the bulletins
and other periodicals published by the
board be admitted to the mails as sec
ond class matter. instead OF third class,
as at present. As the law now stands,
ii admits TO the mails as second class
matter all publications of benevolent
and fraternal orders, trades unions, lit

Of health, and excerpts only the publica-

proposed by the bill prepared by Secre-

resentatives in 10th houses of Con-
gress, is simply the addition at the end
Of the enumerated articles admitted as
second class matter, of the words And
publications Of State boards Of agricul-
ture."
Mr. Brown has just returned from
Washington. and says he secured the
pledge OF every member of Congress
from West Virginia in both houses to
work and vote for the passage of the
bill.
Mr.. Brown is in correspondence with
the State Boards of all the
other States. and he has assurances
from most Of them Of their cordial CO.
operation in his effort to get the bill
passed
If the bill should become a law it will
save to our own State Board at
least SIS month in postage, and will
enable the Board to get out the Farm
Reporter each month to reach a larger
number of farmers than at present, and
at the same time will obviate the neces-
sity of increasing the appropriation
for the Board by the Legislature at the
which is published by Secretary Brown.

intended to settle the question Of goll
payment of coin" obligations Of the
United States. 1t ought to be evident
that the $262, 900, 900 of bonds issued to
retain a gold reserve in the Treasury,
when there was an abundance of silver
to pay all obligations was violation
of the law and the bonds are fraudu-
lently issued. 1t is generally conceded,
we think, by our best lawyers that no
law exists authorizing the issue Of the
bonds, but they console themselves
with, and take refuge behind, the state
ment that the necessity of the case de-
manded it. We believe the day will
come when this whole matter will be in
vestigated, and the bonds declared to
be illegal and repudiated as such.

In 1870 the assessed values were
$l70, 0,437,77S. The current expenses of
the state were maintained upon an ad
valorem tax Of 10 cents on the $100.
In 1895 the assessed values OF property
was $500, 0,657, state tax 25 cents,
school tax 20 cents on the S100. From
this statement it will be seen that our
taxes have grown from 1870, during a
Republican administration, from Is
cents on the 500 to As cents. Our tax
able values have increased from $170,-
473,778 in 1870 to $500, O,91O,576 in 1895.
While our assessed values have in
creased about 100000 our rate OF
taxation has increased 300 per cent.
In addition to this amount of increase
in taxation in 1888 the United States
paid into the state treasury 1922. 2.541
which has been consumed in paying
current expenses Of the state. Under
Democratic rule the state of Texas has
issued bonds to the amount of 5000, ,000
with which to pay current expenses,
and with the beginning of 1895 there
was deficiency of about $780,
900; thirty years s per cent
bonds 100000; paid into treasury by
United States, $922,541; total, $1.S22,-
SAL. In addition to the increase of tax
rate to the deficit, to the money paid
by the federal government our occu-
patton taxes have increased from so to
112 per cent. In 1880 the occupation
tax imposed and collected amounted
to the sum of $4,000. In 1895 IL
amounted to $1,O00,000. So to the ex-
travagance of a Democratic state gov
ernment may be added another $780,
900 growing out of increased occupa-
tion taxes, which added to $1,S22. .541
would make the enormous sum oi
$2,422,5 squandered and dissipated
In extravaganza over and above the in
creased ad valorem tax. The ad valo-
rem tax has been increased 81 300, ,00C

/ charge that the leaders and law
makers of the Democratic party in
Texas are not and never were in favor
of the free common schools; they are
not now and never were in favor OF
the free education of the children of
the state. The first free school act by
Democratic legislature was the act OF
Jan. 81, 1854. 1t provided for the
maintenance of public schools by tax
ing the patrons of such school from
which to raise a fund. No children
were entitled to the benefit of the
school unless the pro rata part of the
tax was paid by the parent, unless
such parent or patron was unable to
pay this tax. Then the trustees OF
such school could certify this fact to
the county Judge. who under the seal
of his Office should certify the same to
the state treasurer, and thereupon the
children of such paupers were admitted
to such school, thereby perpetuating
the humility of the parent and child
by making this report file paper in
the public Offices of this state. But !
am told that the Democratic party has
enjoined public free schools
throughout the state by constitution
al provision which requires the estab-
lishment and teaching of such schools
for term of not less than six months
in each year. That is true, but the
federal government as condition pre-
oedent to the admission of Texas back
into the union after the late war de-
manded that her people should protect
the public free schools by constitu-
tional provisions. Each and every
Democratic administration has secaped
and avoided this constitutional man.
date by gradually reducing the period
for which such schools are taught each
year. by reducing and diverting the
public school fund to the payment OF
official salaries to newly created
offices. Texas had, with the
Deglnn1ng Oh DemOcratic rule, the most
magnificent school fund of any state
in the union, yielding revenues am
pie for the education of all our chill
dren, but this fund has vanished, the
revenues have become inadequate for
the support Of our common schools for
greater period than three and four
months out of the year, instead of six.
Politicians may excuse. may deny, but
the actual results are to be found in
every school district, and no man can
be deceived by a plausible Juggling Of
figures. nor can any apology be rem
dered for this inexcusable destruction
Of our school fund and our public
scfpols. s.-Ksayby at 0gstsMllA
