sues squarely aud fairly. Speaking of the re-
duction Of the state tax by the adoption Of the
constitution of 1873, supported by Republicans
and Democrats alike, for which he attributed
all the credit to Democratic rule. he compared
the Io,cent levy Of Missouri for general ex.
penses with that Of neighboring Republican
states. He stated that Tin Illinois the rate IL

tax in Illinois for general revenue purposes Is
only 8 a.sc on the 500 valuation and in Iowa
&c. This information comes from sources not
to be disputed, from the auditors Of those very
states. These figures were probably accepted
by Mr.. Dockery without investigation. but
they are misleading and serve to show the
desperate means now being employed by Sci.

upon the farmers Of the state In the increased

fers the figures upon Saline county. showing
that q larger per cent Is returned now to the

Is only a sly scheme OF Carrington's to fool
the people and his deception comes In, In
making it appear that the school money paid
out by Missouri in 1870 was only money re.

This applies we'll to his figures for 1890, as

Darlington jumps at what appears q weak
spot SO to 81, when several appointments
were withheld by the Republicans then In
power. He doubtless knows that the demon.
aliziug influences Of war had played havoc
with our schools and nearly all were closed,
but cites this as the only instance in the Re-.
publican record out Of which he has any
chance to make political capital.
The sale of government lands brought the
FIRST cash into the school fund and this has
been increased by certain notorial revenue
aud moneys from unclaimed estates and fines.

sion Superintendent J. f. Hurley. The
plans were satisfactory in the main;
several minor points in regard to the
approaches and shape Of retaining
walls having been altered. thus saving
some expense and space. II was
thought, however. that a roadway Of
eighteen feet in width was narrower
than would be desired both for appear
ance and future necessities. and a res
olution was introduced and passed ask
ing the railroad company for an esti-
mate OF the cost of a structure twenty
feet vide. the council feeling thad the
saving In other parts Of the viaduct
would enable them to obtain the great
er width at very little additional cost.
In addition to the roadway a six foot
walk will be placed on one SIDE, and
there will be attachments for another
to be placed on the other eide when
needed. Work on the structure Is ex-
pected to begin early In the New Year.
