Blackburn and Not Bailey.

In the widespread newspaper discussion
aroused by the factional fight being made
on Senator Bailey in Texas. the common
error is made Of stating that the brilliant
Texan was elected by his Democratic
colleagues Of the Senate TO succeed the
late Arthur Pue German as their leader
The fact is that Mr.. Bailey was not even
a candidate for that trying position, in
the usual meaning Of the word candidate
and that on his. motion in the Democratic
caucus Senator Blackburn, OF Kentucky
who had been vice chairman of the caucus
under Mr.. German, was formally and
unanimously elected leader The circum-
stance that the famous Kentucky Sena-
tors term will expire with the present
Congress next March cut no figure in the
case. His colleagues with one voice de-
manded that he accept their floor leader
ship until he should quit the Senate. 1t
is now considered likely that Mr.. Bailey
will not be a candidate to succeed Mr
Blackburn, and that the new Democrats
leader of the Senate will not be named
until the new Congress meets. which will
be a year from next December. There
will be no use for a floor leader when
Congress is not in session.

More about the School Site.


Editor of the Courier:
1t would be nice if we could all
have the new school, SO located
that it would enhance the value of
our ranches or town lots, but since
we cannot be all 30 suited why not
abandon the mercenary motive and
select site entirely upon the merits
of the question?
Let no voter decide for which
site he will vote until he has visit
ed them and carefully noted the
size, shape and location of each.
We venture the assertion that 90
per cent Of the people so examining
the sites will declare the Hover
site by far the best one in every
respect.
Shall it be CHOSEN, or shall the
future interests of the school be
battered in the mercenary plans of
the present? Let no one be be-
guilad by the shallow argument
that the Beach addition il not il
the city. 1t is only plan to con-
fuse issues. Moreover plans are
forming whereby Beach addition
will be added to the city so that
the new school house could be on
the Hover site and also within the
city limits. A very large number
of the voters of the district believe
the Hover site should be chosen.
Let them stand together and work
hard for its selection. Shall the
town people join with Sec. 7 in
voting for the undesirable Anon
site? BY no means. Stand for the
Hover site. If section7 does not
want the Anon site, let its voters
Join with the friends of the Hover
site and thereby select the best one
offered.
We trust that no voter will aban-
don the Hover site to vote for one
inferior site 1.-THE N. P.) to prevent
the choice of the other inferior site
(the Amon). Section has no
right to make any such demand,
and the town voters would be very
unwise to listen to it. If section 7
wants to be sure of q good site let
its voters endorse the Hover site
and not ask that other people vote
with them for a site that many
know TO be an unfit selection for
school location. Let every woman
who wants the children of the dis
trict to attend school in the best
location. 60 to the polls and vote
for the Hover site.

A DITerenee worthy ol Note

~ DtHeEduco WuFAnA OF Nolt'
Under Democratic administra-
tion it was the custom, when any
money aside from that arising
from taxation to pay the interest
on the school certificates of in
debtedness, found it's way into
the school fund. TO use it for gen
eral purposes, and put in its
place a certificate of indebted
ness upon which to tax the peo-
pie to pay interest and thus in
crease a perpetual debt and con-
sequent taxation on the people.
Now since the Republicans have
a majority ON the Board of Fund
Commissioners, such money as
finds It's way into the school tund
is invested in bonds that bring
interest into the school fund and
thus save the people that much
taxation. During the last year
four thousand dollars has been
thus invested and is drawing
interest into the school
fund instead of taxes out of the
pockets of the people. A differ
ence in tinanceering that should
give the Republicans a decided
lead over the Democrats with the
people in this and all other cam
paigns in Missouri.
