VOx PoPULI
SINGING AS A PART OF
SCHOOL CURRICULUM

Editor Pensacola Journal:
| Reading today in your paper
The Proposed Glee Club"
began to think what a grand thing
it would be to have singing charts in
our public schools in place of some
other things being taught. I know
from actual experience that children
| can be taught the scale Of music so
as to be able to sing by note any piece
| in common time. There are only FIVE
whole notes and two half notes in an
octave.
Voice culture is positively necessary
/ and should be taught in every school
| in the state, and there is no means so
effective as singing. The seven-shap-
ed notes are being Hsed for vocal
music at the present time and are
very popular. But children should be
| taught to sing by number as well as
! by note. Many years ago singing
! schools were almost as common as
literary schools, and well do remem-
Der the happy times / have spent at
| singing schools.
| Along about 1859, there was a music
teacher going through the country by
/ the name Of VIM. Stuart He was one
Of the best singers / ever met. Among
other places, he taught a very excel
! lent school at Coon He'll in Santa
Rosa county. ] was present at the
| closing of the term, and listened to
some Of the finest singing ever heard
IN my life. Strange as it may seem,
little negro boy who nursed Mrs.
Wiley Williams's baby. could sing any
piece of music that had been taught
during the term.
1 do hope and trust that the school
board will have vocal music taught
as a branch of study in all our pub
! lie schools. The children Of the pres,
ent time are becoming so insubordi,
nate that they are almost beyond con,
! troll of the teachers, and there is moth
ing so conducive to their government
as good singing.
/ want music to cheer me last on
earth and greet me first in Haven.
Yours truly,
l, E. ALLEN.

pering with rates. 1t is possible TO
change whole tariffs almost by use
Of the class tleatiOn. and 1t Is done;
For instance. the Florida Ralrroaa
Commission, when it first organized
adopted what was known as south-
ern classification No %" as the FLOR
ida classification. In about two years
time the southern classification hao
been changed until something Ike oVU
articles in classification No. 20 had
been raised, and at that time the
railroad commission revised the FLOR
Ida classification, placing back the ar.
tIcles thus raised by the railroads anu

Florida Classification No. l. and now
we md that again each year, when
the traffic managers have met for the
purpose Of going over these matters,
they have raised items in the south
ern classification until it differs mate
rally from our classification If they
used the Florida classification on in
terstate shipments into Florida II
would not affect us so badly but
where the southern classification is
higher they use ii, and if in remote
case an item should be higher in the
Florida classification they would use
that, In other words, they use that

In which they were given the right,
where complaint was made OF the un'
reasonableness of rate, and after

thereof a just and reasonable rate, to

Commission should have supervision

Gle IS classed in a manner to make

A traveller driving lengthwise
along a street railroad track to pass
an obstruction in the street is not
under an obligation to look and listen
constantly for cars coming up behind
him, according to the decision of the
supreme court of Indiana in the case
of The indianapolis Street Railway
Company VS.. Marschke. In this case
the evidence showed that the plain
tih, driving down the approach lead
ing from viaduct, overlook heavy
wagon going slowly in the same direc-
ton, looked behind and, seeing no
street car approaching, turned upon
the car track and drove forward at a
slow trot until her buggy was struck
from behind by a ear, which had
come up over the viaduct after she
locked and ran upon her at the rate
of twenty miles an hour without
sounding a gong, The court held
that. under the circumstances, a
finding by the jury that the plaintiff
was not guilty of contributory negli-
gence should not be disturbed on APP
peal, and that the defendant was
rrOeprly held liable if it negligently
ran car against the plaintiffs bug
gy and injured her even if all the
specific acts charged in the complaint
were not fully proved.

COMMISSIONER BURR IN
RATE BILL DEBATE,
Live Oak Democrat.

Congressman Lamar. of this state,
in his recent speech in the House on
the railroad rate bill as returned from
the senate, exposed a weakness in it
which seems to us to make it an al
most worthless measure unless that
weakness shalt be cured by amend
ment. The bill as II now is gives the
Interstate Commerce Commission
power to make rates but confers no
power to control the classification of
freight, and because of this the rail-
road companies in fixing the CLASH
fication will be able to nearly, if not
entirely, make up what they lose by
the lowering of rates by the Commits
sion. Our Florida Commissioner.
Hon, R. Hudson Burr. in a letter to
Mr.. Lamar, incorporated in the lat
ter's speech, makes a clear and time
~ exposure of this organic defect in
the bill, which the railroads can turn
so completely 10 their own purposes
that relief would be practically de-
MED to the shipper. We are glad to
see that Florida is so conspicuous in
Congress in showing to the country
vital weakness in this bill in which
we are all so deeply interested. Mr..
Burr's letter, we'll worth reproducing,
is as follows;
While this bill may prevent the
railroads from raising OF lowering a
rate or freight tariff, 1t will amount
to very little if the railroads are to
be the sole judges Of classification,
for that has always been the fsvorite
instrument in their hands for tam

The Man of Force.

There is always room for a man of
force, and he makes room for many.
Society is a troop of thinkers, and the
best heads among them take the best
places. A feeble man can see the
farms that are fenced and titled, the
houses that are built. The strong man
sees the possible houses and farms.

PORTION OF MckEEvERs TESTIMONY.
Did you make any obie ,tion?
A good deal.
What did they say:
Said Heiner nee led IT, money to pay
for paper.
Was that what induced YOU to @. X
the bill?
It was.
J. +. Smith. clerk of court testified
that the Optic had actually delivered
1877 calendars. He had instructed Nc
Keever not TO O. K. Portion of Smith s
testimony:
Why did you tell the clerk not to O.
K. the bill:
Because l had been told that it would
be presented before the goods were de
livered, and the chairman Of the board
Mr.. Black had told me not TO 0. X any
bill until the goods had been delivered
had heard Mr.. Carroll and Mr.. Heiner
needed the money and had to have it.
The goods were about to be delivered.
Heiner came to my office and wanted me
to take ride with him.. | went with
him. Here Smith was asked if Heiner
had any beer with him. and replied.
"Only what he had inside of him
When Mckeever saw Smith Monday
morning he said,"I have done Just the
thing that you told me not to do He
stated that Carroll, Richardson and him
had drunk glass or two of beer That
they had told him that if Smith was
here he would 0. K the bill, and that
is how he came to do it.
Mr. Smith being asked If Heiner had
anything to say regarding the bill while
out riding with him, he answered" Yes,
he said that the bill was high at this
time, but he had to have the money to
pay on n note, at this time. and that
made the bill high. Black told me to
take the job of printing the court calen-
dars to the Optic.
PALMER TELLS OF CROOKED WoEK.
+. A. Palmer, one of the former
owners of the Minot Optic and Heiner's
partner at the time the court calendars
were printed, gave some very important
testimony, which threw much light on
the entire situation. Palmer told how
Carroll came to him and wanted him to
get the warrant for s:5S9.90 or the pay
ment for the calendars, back. because
there was such terrible howl going up
in the county. 1t would not DO to
