THE SCHOOL LEVY.

The exact figures are not at hand
but it is understood the school levy
carried, ut the last election by about
400. All the Districts, except one, the
Maiden Spring, carried both county
and District levies. Just why the
Maiden Spring people do not want
better schools is n question. Certainly
not because they, as well rs the rest oI
the county, do not need them. Maiden
Spring District is the strongest Re.
publican district in the county, and as
the Republicans claim to be friends OF
the schools and of education generally
it is considered ut least little singular
that the levy should have failed i'm this
strong and wealthy community. Any
way it failed. just how far the ques.
ton Of party politics affected the result
is not clear.
The increased school fund now al
the disposal of the Board ought to and
no doubt will be felt and seen in the
increased efficiency of the schools in
every particular.

An Explanation.

"What caused the deplorable Gala
mity?" This is the question which the
foremost Democrats are asking and
and trying to answer. One OF the most
sagacious of them puts it thus: Roose-
welt left no stone unturned. He was
young and ambitious and appealed
first to one body of voters. than
another. He protested to the Russian
government against the Kishinefr mas
sacre and got the Hebrew vote. He
compelled the settlement of the coal
strike and in spite of the Miller easel
got the organized labor vote. He in
vited Cardinal and archbishops to din
ner and kept the friar lands for the
priests and got the Catholic vote. He
invited Booker Washington TO lunch
con and paid the salary of the Indian
ola postmistress and got the negro
vote. He pushed to success the suit
against the Northern Securities Com
any, and got the antitrust vote. He
refused to run amuck against corpor-
atoms, and got the trust vote. He
pushed great irrigation projects in the
Rocky Mountain region, and got the
Western vote. He made u hurry up
annex of the Hanama republic. and
got the first voters vote. How's that
for full explanations" 1t seems near
ly complete, but one might add "and
he has perfect and unwavering belief in
the Roosevelt star Elk.

derstood that the Home Society is in
no sense an Orphan Asylum, where
children are clothed. taught and rear
ed. Their sole object is 10 find imme-
date homes for children who are
homeless, whether they are orphans or
not. There are hundreds OF children
in this state who have no homes-manv
OF them worse than none-and at the
same time there are hundreds Of homes
without children, where children are
wanted. The sole object OF this socie-
~ is TO bring the two parties together.
This they are doing with wonderful
success. AS many us fifteen or twenty
children, perhaps, have been taken
from Tazewell within the last year or
two, by this society, and placed in
good homes-many of these the best
homes Of the state, and it is generally
known that some of these children
were sadly in need of homes. And so
the good work goes on. Mr.. Maybee

FROM A NORTHERN VIEWPOINT

The New York World:
THE BOOKER WASHINGTON INCIDENT.
Many and various were the influen-
ces that contributed TO the unpreced-
ented personal victory gained by Mr..
Roosevelt. But none Of the minor in
iluences helped him more than did the
abuse which the Southern politicians
and newspapers heaped upon him for
entertaining Booker 7. Washington mt
the White House.
The American people will never ac-
cept the dictum that negro scholar is
the inferior of a white ignoramus, that
n negro gentleman is the inferior OF Il
white blackguard, that a mans title 10
confederation rests on the color Of his
skin and not on his character and his
achievements.
The World hopes that this little les
son has finally been thoroughly learned.
Why should the President feel con-
strained TO invite TO the White House
