SCHOOLS OPEN TODAY.
Attendance Is Large and VIII
Eclipse All Former Years.

The city schools opened today In
seemingly Hourishing condition

from all directions. From present

going to be a banner year for Sa-
lem. In the way Of school attend
ance.
The high school attendance, from
the large crowd OF pupils that gath
cred there this morning, looks as II
It were going to eclipse all past rec
ords. The aching facilities have
been made ready for this expected
large attendance by the addition OF
three new teachers TO the faculty.
These are Miss Edna Pearl Luckey,
formerly of the Eugene high school,
who will be In the English depart
ment Miss Lottie Devoe, also In
the English department, and Miss
Jean Tuttle, who will assist In math-
omatics.
At the High School.
A short session was held at the
high school this morning, and the
few changes explained by Prof. Mar
latte and superintendent Powers.
one important change concerning
the enrolment was that pertaining
to nonresident pupils, who have
heretofore been paying no tuition,
but who after this will he charged
a tuition of 81 per month, or 80 q
term. This change was made nee
essary by the large attendance OF
about 60 nonresident pupils last
year, compelling the employment OF
o.. -. A
Is just the cost OF the instruction
which they receive, and Is very
fair deal for them.
The complete change In the school
text this year Will, no doubt, cause
"A great deal of talk and complain
ing, but the change was made for
the pupils own good, and Il Is
claimed that better results In I'm
struction can be obtained from the
use OF the new books than those
used formerly. But Il Is 10 be hoped
that this will he the last change for
some time. as Il works a hardship
ON some of the parents In having 10
furnish these new hooks, although
the old ones may be traded In at the
book stores In part payment for the
new ones.

The book stores are selling school
books on the iustallment plan to-

large that IL became necessary TO

no one could be waited on. When
all inside were waited on the doors
were opened and another crowd ad-
mitted. This has been kept up all
day. You ought 10 look In the win

 The legislature has placed itself up- on record as favoring a full investiga- ton of the boodling alleged to have been connected with the last session by authorizing the appointment of a Jolnt committee to confer with Pros ecuting Attorney Rhoton and Cover nor Little to determine what steps shall be taken to secure more thor ough investigation of the boodling charges. Mir. Rhoton asked that sueh acton be taken, as he indicated that ne needed help of some kind to en- able him to make the investigation thorough The legislature has also been asked to come to the aid of Pu laskl county, which has borne the en- tire cost of the poodle prosecutions. Ill which the entire state is interested It is contended that Pulaski county should not be compelled to pay the entire cost of these prosecutions.
 The enforced absence of Gov.
 Little from the state capital just as the beglnlng of the legislative ses- slon is source of much regret among the members of the general 3SSpn1hlv z,
 anxiety as to the condition of the new chief eXecutice Since he suf- fered complete physical collapse as he was entering the state house a few days after his inauguration. no one except his intimate friends has been permitted to see Gov. Little and the business of the executive office has been conducted by Paul Little, the governors son and Dri- vate secretary. Up to the present time the legislative matters have not made the presence of the gov ernor necessary, but as the session advances and numerous bills are passed, his absence will be felt more seriously. Gov. Little was hurried off to his home at Greenwood, under strict orders from his physicians and statements given out there are to the effect that he may be able to return to his office wihin two weeks. There has been no definite announcement as to that, however, and the physicians intimated inn mediately after the governor was stricken, that it might be a ques- tion of weeks at least before he would be able to return to work.

 most important may be mentioned the followinig:
 To abolish the preparatory depart ment of the University of Arr kansas.
 To appropriate about half a mill lion dollars for new buildings and for the maintenance of the Uni versity of Arkansas.
 To increase the tax levy for Con- and half mills.
 To segregate the school taxes of the state, setting aside only the taxes paid by negroes for the support of the negro schools.
 To provide for the working of the convicts on the public roads.
 To amend the antitrust law, prac- tically repealling that section which forced more than sixty old line in- surance companies to leave the state two years ago. The new bill pro- vides that any company may do business in the state so long as it is not a member of pool or combinia- ton to fix insurance rates in this state.
 To require long distance telephone companies to make physical connec- tion with local companies.
 To appropriate $1O,000 to restore the lost muster rolls of the Arkansas troops in the Confederate army.
 To increase the powers of the railroad commission to enable 1t to consider petitions for the improve ment of train service and the build ing of depots. At present these mat ters must be covered by special legislation.
 To regulate child labor.
 To make corporations liable for injuries to their employees sustained through the carelessness or negh- gence of fellow-employes. This bill is generally known as the fellow servants bill.
 Another measure which is likely to become law within the next few days is the demurrage bill which was introduced in the last session by Representative Barker and which was re-introduced this session by Mir. Barker in the house and Sen ator Wingo in the senate. The sen ate has already acted favorably on the Wingo bill, passing it by an al- most unanimous vote and the meas ure is now in the hands of the house, where it is sure to receive favorable consideration.

division have been discontinued with

necessary to have three men instead
of two as formerly. In this way ex-
