The Schools of Kansas.

VIM E. Curtis. who is writing up
our glorious state for the Chicago
Record, says this of our schools:
''If Kansan is prouder of one
thing than another, it is the schools
of his state, and l suppose that every
body knows that the percentage of
illiteracy here is lower than in Mas
sachusetts, Connecticut, New York
or any other of the eastern states. At
the close of the war, thirty-fve years
ago, there was only $4,000 worth of
school property in the state. To-day
it is more than $4,000, 900. Then
there were 319 teachers employed,
now there are II, 900. Then the aver
age attendance was 5000; now it ex-
ceeds 100000 Then the school tax
was about IS. 900; now it is more than
81, 500, 900, or more than 81 per capita
of the population. There are more
than forty colleges, academies, nor
NAL schools, and other Institutions
for higher education with the state
university at their head. which is in
a very prosperous condition.. 1t has
1000 students, 81 professors in the
faculty, and s fine new modern build
ingS, and unless they want to
take special postgraduate course
in some of the sciences at Harvard or
John Hopkins, the Kansas boys do
not go away from home to get an edu-
cation any longer"

as previously pointed, thar the main
was the continual demand for money OBJ
cause OF complaint against Spanish rule

which. they Ciaim. should remain in the
provinces and be spent there.
Colonel Naolfente, the Cuban who was
appointed chief of the Gendarmerie, was
quite outspokon on the subject. lie said
the Cubans had fought thirty years
against this policy. and they were ready
TO fight thirty more, If necessary.
Americans who are familiar with the
situation here agree I'm saying the Cubans
have good cause for complaint in this
instance.
The mass meeting was held I'm the
plaza and was attended by-3cW persons.
Energetic speeches were made against
the policy Of ceutralizing money NJ
Havana. Most Of the speakers declared
that the principle which it was now pro-
posed 10 put into effect again had been
fought against by them for thirty years.
bu were exceedingly euiogistc IN their
reference to General Wood. imploring
him 20 use his influence with he Wash
ington government against revival OF
one Of The worst features Of the Spanish
regime.
General Wood expressed the emphatic
opinion that. all customs receipts should
be expended in The respective provinces
I'm which they are taken. with the oxcep-
ton of such a percentage for Havana az
may be necessary for governmental eX-
penditures. geological surveys and other
features Of public business OF that char

sertions that If such an order is enforc-
ed 10 means. If not civil war al least

The Cubans are making elaborate pre-
parations for demonstration on General

the Supreme Court will accompany the
Mississippi down the bay at the expense
of the Cubans.
