Cost of Commission.
DO you know how much that supreme
court commission bill as passed by the
senate will add to the appropriations to
be paid by the taxpayers" asked a prom
inent lawyer. at means an increase OF
the expenses OF the court of $685. 900. You
see, 1t provides for nine commissioners
at s2,500 a year for each. or $4,000 for the
blennium. Each commissioner Is to have
an extra 81 900 a year ostensibly to pay for
the services of stenographer and the
nine stenographers will cost the taxpayers
$4,000. 4 little example In arithmetic
makes the total cost figure out $63 0O0
without counting for additional bailiffs'
expenses OF fitting up and maintaining more
court rooms, etc. A place on this supreme
court commission would be a pretty good
thing. No wonder nearly every lawyer in
politics in the state has his anchor to the
windward for a berth"
Normal school Advocate.
Members from the western part OF the
state interested in bills for proposed new
normal schools are decidedly Mustered over
the position assumed by Governor Dietrich
on that subject. II has been known for
some time that the governor was adverse to
dividing the states normal school facilities
and was contemplating giving public eX-
preston to his views. Several sessions
have been had with him by the normal
school promoters, but with so little en-
couragement that they are apprehensive
OF veto in case they succeed in getting
their bill through the legislature. In all
probability the friends of these normal
school measures will formulate a state
ment in answer to that of the governor to
he issued for publication within a few
days.

FOR STATE CONCENTRATIONS
Governor Dietrich Opposed to Policy Of
Scattering Public Institutions
DUAL ESTABLISHMENTS SHOULD Be MERGED
Tells OF Plan to Reduce Cost oi
Maintenance and Mt the same Time
Provide More serviceabIc
Conditions.

LINCOLN. Feb. i.--(Special THE
policy of creating additional institutions
and scattering them over the state, in
stead of concentrating and centralizing
them, does not meet with much favor at
the hands OF Governor Dietrich On this
subject he said today:
II am opposed to any policy calculated
to unnecessarily increase the expenses OF
hesitate.
"In the development of our system Of
penal charitable and educational institu-
tions. the plan has been wrong from the
very inception. Instead OF having two hos
pitals for the curable insane, there should
be but one; so too, the schools for the
deaf and dumb and for the blind. should
have been on the same campus, that one set
of employees might practically perform the
duties Of both institutions and the cost
of maintenance thereof be greatly lessened
from what 1t has been This is also true
Of the homes for the soldiers and sailors.
Il VIII admit that with reference to our
educational institutions the situation is
somewhat different. The attendants at
these come and 20 three or four times q
year. while the inmates of the former In =
stitutions remain permanently or for a
long period OF time.
THE advantage of location which some
would have over others might be adjusted
in accordance with the plan adopted in
Kansas, and that is, for the state to pay
for the transportation OF normal students
up to point within radius of say 100
miles. This would place those living In
remote parts of the state on about the
same basis. so FAR as cost OF transportat ton
is concerned. as those residing in close
proximity TO the school.
Folly OF Two New Normal schools.
at would be folly to attempt TO build
up two additional normal schools at one
time. It would be much more prudent and
wise TO put all the money into one. so pro-
portioned as TO meet the requirements In
the way OF accommoda lions, and at a point
easily accessible and centrally located-say
at York, Central City, Aurora Hastings
or Grand Island.
at might even be more beneficial In
the way of economy and at the same time
carrying out the idea of public convenience
and accommodations. 20 enlarge the hos =
pital for the incurable insane at Norfolk
and use the hospitable building at Lincoln
for normal, or enlarge the soldiers ana
sailors home at Milford and use the home
at Grand Island for a normal. Either or
both of these changes could he made, In
which event the cost OF maintenance would
be greatly reduced. while the cost of en-
larging the buildings and placing them in
serviceable condition would be far below the
cost of even one new structure, such as
is contemplated and required.
Attended by such conditions I believe
that a liberal appropriation should be
made"

Burglars at Cayce.

The Fulton Leader says: Tues
day night at Cayce unknown bur-
glars entered the dry goods and
gents furnishing store of Jim
Underwood and made off with
several dollars worth OF merchan-
disc and case of fine jewelry.
The burglars secured an entrance
to the store by bursting down the
front doors. Judging from the
large amount OF goods stolen, there
must have been several persons
engaged in the burglary.
When Mr.. Underwood went to
his store early Wednesday morning
he found the front door smashed in
and upon entering, found shoes,
clothing, hats, dry goods, ETC.,
scattered promiscuously over TIE
house.
Aside from the amount of goods
stolen, the damage done his stock
OF goods was no small account, as
his goods were pulled down from
the shelves and strewn over the
floor and otherwise roughly hand
led by the burglars.
Fulton officers were telephoned
at once OF the burglary, and Mr..
Albert Robertson left early Wednes-
day for Cayce, taking with him two
bloodhounds, Mack and Red, two
of the best man hunters in this
section.
The hounds easily caught the
trail, which led west OF Cayce to-
wards Hickman, and when last
heard of were still hot on the track
of the burglars.
1t is the opinion OF some that the
property stolen was taken from the
store and hauled off in vehicles by
an organized band OF thieves that
are operating in this section, while
Others think the burglary was COM
mitted by a party of transient
''hobos.
A party of snpicious-looking
characters were seen in the vicinity
OF Cayce late Tuesday afternoon.

Dad"

An exchange very truthfully
remarks:
There is a class of men who are
seldom, if ever appreciated at their
true value. In this enlightened
age they are commonly called
"dad." 1t is dad that humps him
self year in and year out, on the
farm and in the Office, store or
workshop, i'll order that his boy
or girl may go away to school,
and upon their return home, that
the boy may have a fine horse and
top buggy and the girl a costly
piano. 1t is dad that hustles and
cultivates great calloused knots on
his hands and becomes stoop
shouldered in order that his off
spring may reyel in luxury and
make tarnal fools of themselves.
His sons and daughters have learn
ed at his expense to despise his
oldfashioned ways. They secretly
laugh at the style of his Sunday
coat and his bell crowned hat. On
Sunday when his daughter has
company and he would like to sit
in the parlor and listen to the
music, he is given in various ways
to understand that his presence is
nol desirable, and the poor old
man goes into the kitchen and
stays the remainder of the after
noon. God help the son or
daughter who goes back on dad.
In the catalogue of low down cuss-
edness that of ingratitude to ones
parents is the most contemplate.

To BLOCK SALE OF TIE MOBILE
s. OHIO.
Two Stockholders Apply For A Re
ownership.

MERIDIAN, Miss, July S0-Appli-
cation was hled in the Chancery
Court here for a receivership for
the Mobile & Ohio Railway Com
pany. The document is about $50
pages of type written copy, and
goes into the history of the road
and of the recent transfer to the
Southern. The application was
made by L. Edmonds, of Virginia,
and George L. Venner, of Massa-
chusetts. These are the stockhold-
ers of the Mobile g. Ohio who re-
fused to concur in the sale to the
Southern. They want to restrain
the management of the Southern
from operating the Mobile & Ohio,
and ask that a receiver be appoint
ed to take charge of the Mobile g.
Ohio and conduct or operate the
same under the direction of the
court. They ask that the persons
now acting as officials of the Mobile
& Ohio be prohibited from operat-
ing it, and that the receiver, when
appointed. advertise the names of
all the. Mobile & Ohio stockholders,
so that it can be ascertained who
are the owners of the road. When
this is ascertained the receiver is
to be directed to call a meeting of
the stockholders for the purpose of
electing new officers and determin-
ing the future conduct and policy
of the road. and when directors and
officers are SO elected the receiver
ship is to be dismissed. The object
is to block the sale of the Mobile &
Ohio to the Southern.

A Sad Ending.

Our community was considerably
startled last Wednesday to learn
that ]. H. Hendrix, of Fowlkes,
had committed suicide in Memphis,
the rash act was caused by finan-
cial Embarrassment brought about
by speculation in futures. ]. H.
Hendrix stood high with all who
knew him, and he was we'll known
in Dyer county, as tull-handed,
prosperous man. He was the own
err of farm of 500 acres located
near Fowlkes in Dyer County, and
being a large cattle dealer has on
hand possibly four or five thousand
dollars worth of cattle, and about
$1,000 worth of farming imple-
ments. But in order to speculate and
command sufficient money to carry
on his deals he signed the name of
his father, w. HI. Hendrix. and his
father-in-law, Joe Worth, to notes
that he gave the banks at Martin,
Union City, Jackson and Dyersburg,
amounting to $4,000 it is claimed.
1t also develops that the large farm
of J. H. Hendrix is mortgaged to ].
A. Hall, of Newborn, in the sum of
So, 900, and to the bank of Bells, in
the sum of $1,000 and so the in
debtedness Of Hendrix is about
SIS, 900 with his assets worth about
$50, 900 or S21,000. He carried an
insurance of $40. 900 on his life and
it is claimed that his estate will
pay out. and the family intends
that 1t will pay every centit owes.

Obligation.

What is the reason that the
average citizen looks upon an obi
cation due newspaper so much
differently than he looks upon one
due a banker? Very few allow a
banker to wait a day after his
obligation is due, without calling
and making arrangements to care
for it, and when a banker sends a
letter to them suggesting that he
desires call and note paid, the
recipient is prompt to respond. But
newspaper man can send state
ment to 500 people owing him and
only few will pay any attention
to it. The newspaper man does
not charge interest on his accounts
nor ask for an indorser, while the
banker does both. AS a rule the
newspaper does as much effective
work for and is worth as much to
persons who do business with it as
the banker, yet we find this dis
elimination, which often causes us
to want quit our business and start
bank. We may have pleasures the
banker don't enjoy, however, and
he may have sorrows we do not
hear about, so perhaps, we are bet
ter off as we are, and must be con-
tent to plod along in the old way.
But we never could understand
why people should be so prompt
with those who charge them inter
est and demand security and so in
different TO us when we try to be
kind and fair with them. -Okolona
