Delegate Whetzel, Of Jefferson, Finds
That Part Of Bill Was Omitted
From Printed Copies.

Charleston, Feb. 1S.-The Martins
burg library bin passed the senate
this morning, and will nov so to the
house.
The bill TO amend the law creating
the Martinsburg independent district,
SO as to permit the issuance Of bonds,
alos passed the senate. and is now
ready for the governors signature.

George NJ Bowers was the only Mar.
tinsburg citizen present at the recep-

legislature by Senator Elk,ns
The Primary Law.
Charleston, Feb. 1.-THE house de-
feated the primary election bill, which
has been the greatest trouble breeder
before that body since the legislature
met. II was special order for We'd
nesday afternoon. A number OF Wig,
orous speeches were made both for
and against 1t. The most sensational
being that of Speaker Seaman who
left a sick bed to aid In the defeat of
the bill. He attacked Gov. Dawson's
political methods and caustically ar
raigned those who sought to fasten
upon the republican party IAN incubus
which would tax even its greatest
strength to carry"
The bill was defeated by a vote OF
"a ayes to 45 nays. The democrats
furnished the votes that defeated the
bill. and In return the members OF the
black belt promised them votes
enough to defeat any Objectionable
partisan measure that may come up.
| The senate also took fall out OF
the administration by striking from
the general revenue bill the provision
for an Scent tax for general state and
school purposes In place OF the s.
cent tax cents was inserted, the en-
tire proceeds to be limited to school
purposes. This will leave the state
so far short In revenue that some
source not yet tapped win be called
upon to produce the money to run the
government.

FAvORS NEW SCHOOL. BILL
TAXPAYER SAYS 1T WOULD
BE AN IMPROVEMENT.
Says the Present System OF Selecting
the School Books Is Wholly
Unsatisfactory.

Editor The Herald.
Dear Sir: Seeing in your paper an
article concerning the meeting of the
Martinsburg board OF education. and
the statement that the teachers and
members of the school board are very
much opposed TO the proposed new
school law, especially that section
creating state school book board and
a board to select the studies. for the
reason that people away from here
might not know local conditions, |
wonder II that is the real reason that
they are so solcitous about this.
There was also another item in your
paper that should be read in connec
ton with this--that the Berkeley coun-
ty school book board was in a dead
lock, standing four to four. For what?
Not for the books. but for one or the
other of the school book companies.
DO the taxpayers of Berkeley county
and the city realize that they will be
compelled to pay for this fight? The
book companies have to pay their
agents salaries, for the fine turnouts,
! hotel bills and all the other little side
expenses, such as 500 here and there; ,
but the dear people are willing and
cheerfully foot the bill.
| In the interest of economy. would Ii
not be better to have school book
board consisting of men of high stand.
ing who would be above suspicion
who would select the best cooks, and
who would not be changing books ev
cry time the board meets. What :,
now costs the school book companies
| in the IS counties of the state would
be taken off the price OF the books.
Further. with the uniform books sc
selected, children moving from coun
! try to city, or vice versa, would not
be compelled 90 throw away theft
books and buy new ones.
The trouble is. we are all too busy
with our own affairs to take time tc
call the attention of the people to the
school book BOARD iniquity. am
casting no reflection upon the school
book board OF Berkeley county, but
merely directing attention to the sys
tenn as grand, rotten whole. IL Is
time that the present system is wiped
out, and IL we cannot have free books
let us cheaper those we are compell
ed to buy, by having only one board
! to appear before. instead of 3d.
! Go to the hotel and see who Were
registered last Saturday, and see il
they will not be in town next Satur
day. Cannot our book board be trust
ed to do its duty without watching
SO we hope the teachers OF Martins
burg will not rush TO Charleston in Q
body to defeat this measure. II they
should, some of them might find oui
that some people know who makes M
| the list of books in this city, and who
is responsible for the changes thai
take place so often. Let the people
! who have to pay for these changes
once find out who makes the changes
and why they are made, and there viii
be some other changes made that are
not thought of at present
/ Yours for state board.

Busy Day in the House.

delegates passed the bill to so amend
the law creating the independent
school district Of Martinsbnrg as TO
enable the board OF education to issue
bonds for the erection OF the proposed
new high school building, and It is
probable that the senate will concur
In the bill without opposition. The
action of the legislature in passing
such bill is made necessary by the
law under which the Martinsburg dis
trict was created, and the proposition
TO erect a new high school building
is thus brought nearer contamination.
The passage of the amendment indi-
Gates the favorable position Of the
legislature on the question OF the bond
issue. and It is believed that the whole
matter will be in shape TO submit TO
the people at the municipal election in
May.
