FAVOR SEPARATE SCHOOLS.

quite significant are resolutions
adopted Wednesday at Chanute by
the Kansas state Association Of
School Boards of cities Of the first
and second class.
by unanimous vote this body recon-
mended that the privilege now en-
joyed by cities OF the first class in
the matter for separate schools for
whites and blacks be extended to
cities of the second class, and that
legislation tending 70 this end be
asked of the Legislature at the com
ing session"
There are only about half dozen
cities of the first class in the state
while those of the second class mum
ber perhaps seventy-nve
Does this action OF the schoO,
boards indicate a sentiment in favor
of separate schools that will ulu-
mately ask their adoption all ovel
the state?
What action rhe legislature will
take, If any. is of course cunjoctural
II is quite probable, however, tha
the question of separate schools viii
be made an issue this summer by tn,

The extravaganza Of the present ad-
ministration is difficult matter for
its apologists to explain. First. there
is the deficit for the fiscal year 1894
81 over s41 900, 900 staring them in the
face. which has reduced the available
cash balance in the United States
Treasury to the zero point. SO that
Secretary Shaw will probably have 70
again call on the hanks for another
installment of the cash they hold and
on which they pay no interest. II is
all very well 70 call the payments for
the Panama Canal an "extraordinary"
expense and so excuse the present con-
ditions. There are other expenses that
this administration has piled up that
are equally extraordinary that no ex-
Gu IS can palliate or gloss over
Take the expenditures for the year
before the war with Spain, when the
Democrats were IN power and the ap-
preparations made by the Republicans
for the present year. and the extrav-
agance OF the present administration
is at once apparent.
