THEY ALL DENY 1T.
Attorney Generals Assistants Repu-
diate School District Opinion.

Several days ago a dispatch was sent
out from Abilene stating that the attor-
ney generals department had held that
county superintendent are entitled to
one dollar for every room visited in a
graded school instead of one dollar for
the entire school. as is technically
stated in the statute.
Assistant Attorney General Clayton
says that no such opinion has been
made by the attorney generals depart
ment-at least no one in the department
Will acknowledge it and no record can
be found of any such opinion. And
while Mr.. Clayton does not say so it is
evident that he thinks such an opinion
would be erroneous, as the law specifies
that the one dollar per school allowed
county superintendent for visiting
schools is for travelling expenses, and
there is no travelling expense in going
from one room to another in graded
schools.
The law is meant to apply primarily
to district schools where the superin-
tendent is compelled to hire a livery rig
or keep a horse of his own to travel
aabout the county.

would talk regarding the matter. 1t is
stated that the Armours have at least
$4,000. 600 tied up in the private car lines
which are engaged in carrying fruit.
Under the present system the contracts
with the lines are made so that the
railroad companies can call on them for
cars during the season up to a certain
number said to have been last year about
1900 for each road. For some reason, it is
stated, cars were not furnished with suffi-
Der to take care of the trade This is
alleged to have resulted in great loss of
fruit and the ra threads stood the blame.
Another factor for the railroads going into
the business is said to be the fact that
they are compelled to pay the private car
lines three-quarters of a cent for every
the case of the fruit trade this amounts to
nearly $125,000 a year.

with the Armours was entered into three

which it now operates 1t requires in ordi-

number for the Southern Pacific.

Pastor at Marysville Resigns to End
q Church Fuss.

Marysville. Kan, Feb. S-After a very
stormy session, which a times seemed
liable to break into a free-for- all fight,
the Rev F. J. Rice was voted out of
the Baptist pastorate in this city
On the Sunday evening following the
death of the late President Mckinley
the Rev. Mr.. Rice failed to refer to the
tragedy and its results. The next morn
ing found the faction opposed to him
busy in preparing trouble for him, their
reason for the renewed activity being
based on patriotic grounds.
They were not able to GUST him, though
they voted that he quit several weeks
ago The Rice faction forestalled their
efforts and voted to rescind the first de-
cision that he should resign.
The trouble grew and finally on We'd

A PERMANENT SPLIT.

The decision OF the young Hawaiian
members of the Home Rule party to
sacrifice no jot of principle for the sake
of union with the men who had broken
faith with them, was made good last
evening at a spirited meeting in Fos-
ter Hall. The reformers were out in
force and it Is evident that they mean
to leave the Wilcox-Kalaukalani fac
ton to it's own devices while they move
to higher ground. Delegate Wilcox
was present and heard himself describ-
ed with a plentiful lack of compliment.
And what Is quite as significant, he
got no sympathy anywhere.
The movement of the young Hawaii
ans is likely to spread throughout the
group. In fact it has been anticipated
on Maui and in that and the other ISL
ands there must come so deep feeling
over the centralized management of the
old Home Rule organization, as to
swell the numbers of the protestants.
wilcox and KaIaukalani believe in
naming the personnel of Home Rule
Conventions and of seats in the Legis-
lature. ignoring the rank and file of the
Lahui they so often laud. Young da-
waiians. on the other hand, believe in
the American system of fair play and
insist on having a free voice at pri-
maries and In conventions. The line of
cleavage thus dug. is not likely to be
SPAWNED Mr.. Wilcox knows that if he
crosses the chasm for harmony's sake
he cannot rule the party longer; and
the young Hawaiians know that If they |
cross the fatal gorge they will simply |
register themselves as slaves to the |
Wilcox interest. bonded TO do as they |
are told. Wilcox had rather ruin than
forego his rule; the young Hawaiians
had rather part for good from their
elders than to accept 1t. And SO the
chances of getting together are hardly
worth counting.

AUTOMOBILES.

! 1t is rather surprising to hear from g
man of John Brisbane Walkers stand
| ing that Thomas A. Edison is a rank
| faker." The man who made the in
candescent light practicable, who had a
creative hand in the telephone and who
invented the photograph and, in the
form of a device which the Western
Union Company long ago bought from
him and locked up. anticipated the
wireless telegraph-sureIy such a man
has reached a standing, IegitimateIy
scientific.
The occasion of Mr.. Walkers re-
marks is to be found in Mr.. Edison's
announcement that he will soon put an
automobile on the market at $3.50 which
can attain a speed of seventy-five miles
per hour. Mr.. Walker, il seems, besides
conducting a magazine and a corre-
spondence university, also makes auto
mobiles which sell from $3.50 to $500O
there or therea bouts. II Is obvious that
II Mr.. Edison's auto at a minimum
price of $3.50 turns out TO be as good
as Mr.. Walkers auto at a minimum
price Of $3.50, Mr. Edison, unless under
hidden in turn, will get the business.
Hence the heat of Nr. Walkers re-
marks.
Yet everybody must have looked for
something of the kind. The last word
about autos was by no means said
when the earlier ones. such as Mr.
Walker deals in. were put on the mar
ket. 1t was to have been expected that
quality would improve and price di-
minish, which is the history of most
devices Of pleasure and utility. Time
was when the Swiss watchrnakers be-
lIeved that none but takers would
promise a workable American watch for
$50 Ffrst-ciass Yankee time-keepers, in
filled cases, are now sold for 500 and
the Swiss watch has been practically
driven out of the United States mar
ket. Within the memory of this writer
hrst-class breech-loadiIg shotgun
cost $3.50 1t can now be had for $50 or
less. Better sewing machines than
those which used to bring Sl25 are now
sold for $50. A lighter. stronger and !
SWifter bicycle than that which cost
Sl25 twelve years ago is now selling a. |
$50. In the very nature of things there |
must be yawning divergence between |
the initial and the ultimate price of
motor carriages; and that Thomas \ |
Edison should be the man to bring tho
prices down is not surprising in any
sense. especially when the possibilities
OF storage battery which does not in
crease in weight to a degree dispropor-
llonate to its increase in power-the Sc
cret Of Edison's new mechanisrn-has
been fully considered.
