amounted to enough to establish and
maintain the required four months
school in each district in the State,
and as a consequence nc part of it has
ever, so far as 1 know, been applied to
the support of the University, but
without authority, expressed or i'm
piled in the constitution, the General
Assembly has donated hundreds OF
thousands, even millions of dollars, to
the University from the general reve-
nue. fund not set apart to the public
school fund, and this is a point l wish
to call especial attention to.
The demand made upon the Legisla-
ture to pass the, 100000 endowment
bill was based upon the assumption
that there was and is a constitutional
obligation resting on the General AS
sembly to aid and maintain the Uni
versity out of the general revenue
fund Of the State. This / denied upon
the floor of the House and I further
asserted, as I do now, that I have
found no express authority in the con-
stitution to give 81 to the University,
o4C6pb out Oh t1o puDltC SCHOOL uQu
and not out of that until the public
schools of the State had been estab-
lIshed in each district; q condition
which has never yet occurred.
In view of the attempt which was
made in the Legislature which has
just adjourned, to fasten upon the tax
payers of the State . bonded debt of
$4,000, 600 as q permanent endowment
fund for the University, and in view
of the further fact that that attempt,
though defeated, will likely be re-
newed ut the next General Assembly,
it becomes necessary that the matter
be discussed thoroughly"
i am sorry to ask so much space in
your paper, but I hope it will be prof
table to us all. / believe that II we
will take time to discuss q little more
of State politics and o little less OF
national we will be benefited by It. 1t
must be understood that the trusts and
combines r not only in the saddle,
nationally speaking, but they are the
power behind the throne In the State.

PAUPERS' LIVES AS STAKES
Horrible Insurance Gambling On
Poorhouse Inmates.
Vndertakers Paying Premiums FOL
Speculation-One Man Insured
to Secure a Barroom Bill.

New York, Dee SIT has been iiscov-
cred that there is desperate, hor 5ioie
traffic in insuring inmates of the New
York poorhouse, the premiums being paid
nv strangers. The alluTing bait held 'ut
10 these niserables is that the Insurance
will rescue them from the ditch in Potters
Field.
Catherine Matthew's is 0 peculiar ease.
She is a fTail child of seventeen, hunch-
back. deformed from the time of her tIrth.
she has other deformities which should
exclude her from insurance privileges. but
she carries policy of $3.50 on her leah.
The weekly premium of L o cents is PAIL by
her sister, Mary, who is the beneficiary
under the terms OF the policy Mrs. dat
fhews, the young girls mother, is al % an
inmate of the almshouse. Her daughter,
Mary. has an insurance on her life, too, Tor
&160.
Elizabeth Sears is past forty-five years,
and off and on is a sojourner in the aims
house, despite the fact that she carries
cash value on her death OF $3.50. Mrs.
Sears. about fifteen years ago, took out
(. policy for S126, the limit her small means
would allow, She alleges that Cannon
street undertaken got her to increase she
lace value OF the policy twice in as May
years. Tic policy is made payable 10
Bridget Sears, Ter daughter, but the in'ier-
<ssaker holds it and keeps it.
.t Bridget Bird is another typical case Of
the $500 Others that are on the island.
rAunt Della" Bird-as She is called by
flle halitues Of tie poorhouse-was n school
: teacher years abacR. Two marriages that
were unfortunate left her broken in health
and pocket and without food or shelter she
soon became a public charge, she is in
sured for the benefit OF q nephew in the sum
of $3.50, and ScaInmel street under
taker pays the premiums on the policy. She
knows neither the maine nor address Of
the undertaken. Margaret Gwin has q policy
for $3.50 on her life. An undertaken Will
collect it after she Is dead. Ellen Gallagher,
who liz no relative OF Ellen Dunn, has a
policy FOR $140 on the latter's life. She
pays the weekly premium promptly.
Mary Gayl1r was such a good specu-
,stion for an Eighth avenue undertaken
