CHINESE EMPRESS
NAMES COMMISSION

Washington, April 27.-The follow
ing cablegram has been received at
the State Department from Mr.. Squier,
the United States charge at Pekin.
The Empress Dowager has appoint
ed board of national administration
to relieve her of her public functions.
They embrace three members of the
Cabinet now with the Empress at Sian
Flu, and Prince Ching, Niceroy II and
Prince Kung, who are now in Pekin."
This news is regarded as of import
ance, indicating as it does the re-
linquishment by the Empress Dowager
of the arbitrary powers she heretofore
has exercised.
The three members of the cabinet
now at Sian Flu include the notorious
Jung Lu, who was one of the most
active in the outbreak against the
foreigners last summer. one of the
other members of this council seventy
years old and is said to be greatly
deblitated. The third member has
been at least lukewarm toward foreign
interests. The choice of these three
is looked upon as likely to complicate
the good which Ii Hung Chang and
the others may accomplish.

The State Board of Elections for
the next two years has been ap-
pointed. It consists of three demo
Gratis and two republicans. The
Simmons Machine is determined
that the Peoples party shall not
have representation, and further
more, the two republicans on the
Board are from the extreme western
part of the state. Therefore, the en-
tire opposition to the Democratic
party in the whole central and east
ern parts of the state is denied rep
resentation On this most important
election board.
Notwithstanding this effort to
disfranchise the Peoples party from
representation ON this State Board,
if the Peoples party can have one
representative On every election
board at every voting precinct in
the eastern part of the state the
majorities which Simmons has been
able to steal in the east will disap.
pear or the people will know the
reason why.

punIrt. SCHOOL BOOKS.

In another column Of this issue oi'
the CAUCASIAN we publish list OF
the public school books selected by
the State Board Of Education for the
next five years. Many Of the books
recommended by the Board are new
to US, and, therefore, we are unable
to say whether they are better or
worse than the books that have been
in use. If they are equally as good
or better, then we desire TO congrat-
ulate the Board upon securing the
contract for the books for the next
five years at less price than they
have cost In the past.
However, it Is rather significant
that the sub-Text Book Commission
appointed by the legislature recon-
mended almost entirely differen,
books from those selected and ap
proved by the State Board Of Edu
cation. This sub-Text Book Com
mission created by the Legislature
cost the State one thousand sever
hundred dollars in expenses and sal
aries, and yet 1t seems their wOrl
has been worth nothing, because thu
State Board Of Education has spurn
I'd, or, at least, ignored their repor
and adopted lot of new books will
strange names. We, trust, however
that their action has been wise ant
will prove beneficial to the State ii
the long run.

AGE. AND THE CAUSES.
In another column will be found
report made by an officer of the
Geological Survey as to the damage
caused by the recent great foods in
the western part of the state and al
so an interesting discussion as to the
causes of these floods.
1t will be seen that the officer
who made the examination saws
that the rainfall was not so large a.
it has been in the past when much
less damage was done, and that the
present damage resulted from the
cutting away of the forests from the
mountain sides. He concludes his
report by saying that the establish
ment Of the Appalachian Park to
preserve the forests around the
headwaters of these streams would
be one of the greatest and most Of.
fective remedies.
The Senate Committee ON Forest
Reservations during the last session
of Congress favorably reported a
bill to establish the Appalachian
Park and Forest Reserve. The OBJ
ject lesson furnished by the recent
floods should cause the next Congress
to establish this park and forest re-
serve without further delay.

THE SCANDAL GROWS.

In another column will be found
an editorial taken from the Monroe
Enquirer headed "Has reached the
Sickening Point" The Enquirer is
a democratic paper, but it justly
raises its protest against the action
Of the members Of the last legisla-
ture in creating large number of
new offices and then filling all these
offices with themselves.
In the first place, there was no
necessity for the creation of these
new offices, and in the next place,
even if there were such a necessity,
common decency should have kept
men who voted to create these places
at the public expense from voting
themselves the jobs.
The CAUCASIAN has referred tc
this scandal several times. Since
we last published a list of those
members of the legislature who had
cIeated jobs for themselves, Mr.. Rob
inson, a member of the Legislature
from Arson county, has secured one
of the solicitorships which he voteC
to create, and Mr.. Mann, another
member of the legislature, has Sc
cured for himself the new fat posi-
ton Of head of the penitentiary.
Surely the voters of the state will
not approve Of such methods wher
next they render their verdict al
the ballot box.

ts THE REVENUE ACT CONSTITU-

Many features of the Revenue
Law passed by the last legislature
are meeting with condemnation on
all sides. Many of those who feed
the injustice of the act have begun
to investigate its constitutionality.
The last legislature and the one
preceding 1t have passed so many
unconstitutional laws that it will
be strange indeed if they have not,
In their partisan and revolutionary
crusade, made the revenue act un-
constitutional also. Of course, they
will want to impeach the whole
