Honor for General Wright.

A rumor is current to the effect
that Judge Taft, Chairman of the
Philippines Commission, and Civil
Governor of the islands, is to be
given a place on the United States
Supreme Court bench when Judge
Shires -retires. 1t is said futher
thatM/fce Gov. Luke E. Wright,
of lemphls, will succeed TO the
Governorship OF the Philippines
and that W. w. Rockhill will be
given place on the Philippines.
While there is no definite con-
firmation of the story that Judge
Taft will be elevated to the United
States Supreme Court bench on the
retirement of Justice Shiras, it is
given fairly general credence.
Judge Taft has not been in the
best of health and persons return
ing from the Philippines have
stated that it was believed he
he would not remain there long.
In case Judge Taft should retire
from the Commission, Gen. Wright,
being Vice Governor, would natu-
rally succeed him. The President
appreciates the good work done
by Gen. Wright in the islands and
the members OF the committees
before whom he has appeared
since his stay in Washington have
been impressed with his knowledge
of the conditions prevailing in the
new possessions.

THE Commercial Appeal sums
up Thomas B. Reeds political ca
reer after its estimate of the man
and concludes that "Tom Reeds
last days were spent in the practice
of his profession and the company
of congenial friends. The lovable
side of the man shone there to the
best advantage. The passions
which his courage as speaker
aroused a decade ago have all died
out, and the political score has
been paid to the full. We must
all lament his death, because he
was one of our few great Ameri-
cans, whose talents were beyond
dispute and whose honesty no one
has ever lmpugned."

THE Union City stores are full of
new holiday goods, and, as usual,
the merchants will be kept busy as
bees till Christmas eve with their
custom. Other towns may flourish
and people may come and 60, but
when it comes to merchandise and
shopping Union City holds the
banner, and the holiday season is
no exception to the rule. This is
one of Santa Claus principal mar
.kets and distributing points for
many miles around and this season
one of the very best.

FOR THE COUNTRY BOY.

Gov. ,OdelI, of New York, like
Gov. Frazier, is determined to
open up some avenues to rural pu-
pills which have hitherto been
closed. In the course of one of
his political speeches in the recent
campaign he said: SAT the coming
session of the Legislature measure
will probably be introduced which
will provide that in any district
not having high school facilities,
the children shall have such advan-
tages at the expense Of the state,
and not of the parent"
As Mr.. Odell was elected, this
ante election promise becomes a
statement OF probable action. The
journal says of this action
that it is in line with the Ohio pro,
cedure under what is known as the
'Boxwell Law" which has proved

of supplying our wants by looping
off our desires is like cutting off our
feet when we want shoes-a COM
ment whereby Swift in no wise be-
lied his name, it being far from slow.
Many Of our wants, it's true, may
be purely imaginary, our real needs
few and far between.
On the other hand, what were for
merly deemed luxuries for the 'classes"
are now prime necessities for the
"masses."
But what has that to do with high
grade shoes at about two-thirds price?
AS you read on the application will be-
come more apparent.

assurance that you have complete
stock to select from: Every known

SO successful in that state, serving
as an incentive to many to prepare
themselves for a high school educa-
ton, and making the achievement
of this possible in many cases
where it would otherwise have been
impossible.
High school education for rural
school pupils who are qualified for
it, is the object sought. In keep.
ing with his promise, it is expected
that the Governor will recommend
to the next Legislature the passage
Of law that will permit the chill
dren of the farmer to obtain free
education in any high school in the
state. At present the pupil from
the country attending high school
has to pay tuition fee of fifty dol
lars a year. This fee the pupil
living in the district in which the
school is situated does not have to
pay. This inequality eforces the
man who makes his living out Of
the soil to pay double tax if he
has son or daughter.he wishes to
educate. If this can be done in
Ohio and New York, why not In
Tennessee also? Is there any rea-
son why the boy on the hillside
should not have the same educa-
tional advantages free as the boy
in the city? Our state department
of education has jurisdiction over
the courses of study in our public
schools, and on completion of same
grants certificate, which is signed
by our State Superintendent.
If our Legislature would pass
some law similar to the ''Boxwell
Law" of Ohio, the nonresident
pupil would receive his academic
education free of charge, and the
certificate he would submit, signed
by the State Superintendent, would
be kept by the high school author
tiles as a voucher, and for each
such voucher the department Of
public instruction would pay a fair
sum from state funds to the high
school admitting the pupil. Such
a law could fix minimum sum as
such compensation. The pupil
could also be allowed to attend the
high school of his choice. D.

AN EASY EXCUSE.

"Only a few weeks ago. said a man
who does collecting for a big business
house in the city, Il had to call on a
delinquent. He was a man of stand
ing. l made bold to venture that he
was something like three months
tardy. 1 noticed his right hand was in
a sling.
Why he began, do you know am
very sorry, but I've had an accident to
my hand and here he made a great
show of his wounded member, and
haven't been able to sign any checks
lately
Now, of course" the collector con-
tinued, Il get all kinds of excuses from
all kinds of people. Some say they
are busy, some say they are temper
arily pinched and confidingly plead for
mercy, but if anyone had advanced any
such excuse as a wounded hand I'd
have taken it as a bit of irony-had I
not heard the man and seen from his
face that he expected that the excuse
would be good. Well, it was good.
There was not enough of me left to
ask him if that hand had held up for
three months from making payments.
At any rate, it detained him three
weeks more.'-Boston Herald.
