By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
ASBURY PARK, N. j., July IA
crowd of 10000 persons which turned
out to welcome President Roosevelt
made Friday, the closing day of the
National Educational convention, the
most impressive of all the great edu-
cational meetings.
The duties of sfe rich. was the sub
ject matter of the speech which the
president delivered to the educators.
Although this was the last day of the
convention, the president found $4,000
delegates, nearly all school teachers,
waiting to hear his speech, which was
made in Ocean Grove auditorium.
The presidential train arrived at the
station at o'clock and it took thirty
five minutes to make the trip from
there through the people until the mo-
ment when the cheering subsided and
the president began to speak from the
Ocean Grove auditorium.
Several pretty receptions marked the
trip from the station to the auditorium.
Outside the station the Indian band
from Carlisle school was in waiting
and fell into line Immediately before
the presidents carriage. In the car
riage with the president rode Governor
Stokes of New Jersey. A military es-
core accompanied the carriage.
Az the carriage turned into Main
street. it passed wagon filled with
negroes who began to cheer. In re-
sponse the president waved his hand
at the delighted negroes.
When the president entered the audi
torium thousands mounted chairs and
cheered him.
Teacher EuIoglzes Roosevelt
Responses to the presidents address
were made by John r. Kirk, president
of the state normal school at Kirks-
vile, Mo-, and Miss Katherine Blake,
principal of public school No. g. New
York City. Miss Blakes response was
a notable one. She pronounced an elo-
quent eulogy on the president, con-
cluding with these words:
"He is greater teacher than any
among us. We are teachers Of children;
he is teacher of men, teacher of ma
tions, He is not only the president of the
United States, but also the best loved
man in all the world
The president shook hands with Miss
Blake at the conclusion of her address.
the audience rose to its feet and cheered
for nearly a minute. 1t had been the
presidents int tention to make another
address outside the auditorium, but his
time was so short that he could stop
only long enough to greet the crowd
which had assembled and to express
his pleasure at the reception accorded
him.
He left Immediately for oyster Bay.
Among the officers elected by the sew
eral divisions for the ensuing year were
the following: Business section, second
vice president. w. H. Wagner, Los An

Special to The Herald
CHICAGO, July 7.--Behind John d.
Rockefeller's donations of millions of
dollars to Yale and the Educational
Iassociation the influence Of President
William r. Harper of the University
of Chicago Is seen by many Chicagoans.
Professors and close friends Of the Mid
way school are chuckling over what
they call DIR. Harper's latest coup.
They maintain that the acceptance of
these millions has helped the University
lof Chicago over the most threatening
barrier which 1t has met.
The cry of tainted money" has hurt
ence has been felt for the last four
years. President Harper soon analyzed
the case. For two years the University
of Chicago has not received big gift
from John D. Rockefeller.
With the expenditure of $4,000, 900 for
lands purchased south Of the Midway
three years ago the donations from Mr..
Rockefeller suddenly stopped and the
new school of engineering and other
promised Improvements have been held
up.
Following gifts to other Institutions
came the greatest step. A gift of
$10,000,000 was made by the great fl
nancier ''for the cause of higher edu-
cation" but largely for the public
schools During all Of these maneuv-
ers President Harper has been with
John D. Rockefeller in New York. 1t
is admitted with considerable satis-
faction at the University of Chicago
that the whole plan was made by the
Midway president. Now the profess
sors say that with Yale and Chicago
standing together, and with Harvard
''numbed" by the acceptance of the
generous gifts from ]. P. Morgan, the
cry against tainted money must soon
cease or at least lose its bad effect.

KANSAS MAY NOT
REFINE ITS OIL
RECENT STATE LAW DECLARED
ILLEGAL
CONTRARY TO CONSTITUTION
Supreme Court Decides Legislation Is
Invalid, as Infringing Provision
Against Works of Internal
Improvement

By Associated Press
Topeka, Kas., July 1.-THE law
passed by the legislature last winter,
appropriating $4,000 to build an inde-
pendent oil refinery at Peru, was to-
day declared unconstitutional by the
state supreme court, the opinion being
rendered by Associate Justice Thomp-
son.
The oil refinery law was considered
one of the most direct blows struck at
the Standard Oil company by the last
legislature, as tending to restrict the
concern in the handling Of the Kansas
product 1t provides also for the erec-
ton at Peru of a branch penitentiary
whose inmates were to work the oil
plant. State Treasurer Kelly and War
den E. B. Jewett, whose duty it was to
issue the bonds, declined to sign them
until decision on the constitutional
ity Of the act had been secured. 1T
torney General c. G. Coleman filed
mandamus proceedings in the state SUI
preme court on behalf of the state to
compel these officers to sign the bonds.
The opinion today declaring the act
to be illegal and unconstitutional was
concurred in by all the members of the
supreme court.
The court holds that the construction
of the refinery and the branch pen
itentiary in connection with 1t is in
violation of the state constitution which
declares that 'the state shall never be
a party in carrying on any work of
internal improvement"
The construction and operating of
such a refinery, it is held, would be a
work of internal improvement.
Governor Hoch Criticised
The court reviews the discovery Of
great quantities of oil, "the general
public complaint that particular cor
poration was unjustly manipulating the
market of this product so that the pro-
ducer was being deprived of what right
fully belonged to him." and the fact
that a public demand had been made
upon the Legislature to enact laws to
protect the producer. The court by in
ference criticises Governor Hoch for
using a scarecrow to frighten the So
called oil trust. and for informing the
trust that the thing he had set up was
a scarecrow.
"The indictment Of the Standard Oil
company" said the court. "is no doubt
true and the provocation was very
great. but we must not make a scare
crow of the law"
Governor Hoch was greatly disap-
pointed at the decision and said: Now
that we have started it. wanted to go
on and run our refinery We would
have secured more than its cost in the
the price of oil in few months. If
had been the supreme court would
have strained point and have declared
the law constitutional"

Swcctwutcr Reporter,
The opening of bids for Texas
school lands began with the first
of September, under the new law.
SO far it looks as if high prices
would rule. 1t will be some
weeks before the listing Of the
bids is completed, as there is
deal of clerical work to do.
There is one thing already APP
parent az shown by the bids so
far opened, and that is that the
state will obtain much better
prices for the land under the new
method of sale than had it been
sold under the old method. The
bids for the good sections are
higher than was expected by the
land commissioner. AS an in
stance of this the fact is cited
that the price hid on one section
of land situated in Midland coun-
ty was $ll an acre. There were
several bidders for this section
and it is said to be an unusually
good piece Of land. Many of the
bids run as high as ST and So per
acre.
Some of the prospective pur-
chasers have bid on the land
without having seen it. A north
ern man came into the land office
few days ago and told one of
the clerks that he desired to bid
on four sections of land situated
some where in West Texas. He
preferred Ward county because it
looked good to him on the map,
He asked the clerk TO pick out
four sections living together,
The clerk did so and the man put
in good bid on the land, paying
the first installment of the pur-
chase price into the state treas
ury.
1T is more than likely that
the four sections which this man
has purchased are coverd with
sand dunes" said the clerk in
speaking of the matter.
In most cases, however, the
prospective purchaser has made {
personal inspection of the lane
upon which he is bidding, Mos
of the bids 80 far opened are from
persons who live in East Texas
Very few are from persons out
side of Texas
1t is estimated that while Their
are about $500 bids in all no
more than 1000 tracts of Ian,
will be sold, as many of the bid
are on the same section.
