NO GAMBLING IN COUNTY.
Plan to Call Special Grand Jury
May Be Abandoned.

The gambling resorts In ST. Louis County
have been tightly closed for the last forty
eight hours and it is now said that the
plan to call a special Grand Jury may be
abandoned.
One OF the Clayton officials. who was
asking for the jury, said yesterday that
the gamblers had agreed to quit and that
II this result could be accomplished. they
would be willing to forget the past. He
said that as soon as the places were re-
opened. the Grand Jury could then be i'm
paneled.
The regular Grand Jury will meet on the
second Monday In September and the dis
position now seems to be to let that body
investigate the matter. Prosecuting At
torney Johnston said he had not heard Of
any promise made by the gamblers to
quit and did not know what effect it
would have on the proposition for special
Grand Jury
Tine cases against Frank White and Ed

TEXAS NEGROES ENJOY
SPLENDID PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Professor HoRE of Fort Worth Says
Easterners Do Not Understand
Race Question.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Washington. July 21.-Professor Alex
ander Hogg, superintendent of the public
schools of Fort Worth, Tex, and author
Of ''The Railroad in Education" discuss
Ing the race question, said:
IF the North will leave us alone we
will solve the race question, SO far as
Texas Is concerned, and think the other
States In the South will also be able to
cope with the problem. Be just to the
negro and white man alike. and time will
adjust the inequalities.
In Texas we have no trouble with the
has. The thing that. is doing, more TO
school. and in Texas the negroes have
just as good public school advantages as
the white people.
ITO begin with, We pay men and wom-
en- teachers of the same grade and class
the same pay. If a woman has the quail
fcations she gets the same pay as
man. And we follow that principle out
in the negro schools. In other words, We
provide just good buildings and just
as good teachers for the negroes as we
do tor the whites.
IF some of the people of the East
would only go west of the Mississippi
and south of the Missouri, they would
have their eyes opened so that they would
come back home and attend to their own
problems and let the South settle the
negro question without interference"
