ATTORNEY GENERAL DECLINES
TO ISSUE OPINION.
Thinks That the Board Of Trustees
Should Act, or Mandamus Proceed
inq Should be Instituted to Pass
on the Burkitt Rider.

Jackson, March 25.-Attorney Gen.
eral Fletcher has declined to ad-
wise Treasurer Edwards to pay the
warrant drawn by the University Of
Mississippi for its support fund for
1908, amounting to $4,000, until the
legal status of the Burkitt rider on
the appropriation bill is settled.
Briefly stated, this rider provides
that the appropriation is conditioned
on the board of trustees placing the
salary of the chancellor at $500 and
the salaries of the faculty members,
at the beginning of the next collie
giate year. back to the salaries paid
in 1906. The chancellor is now re-
ceiving $4,000 per year, while the
salaries of several faculty members
have been increased, the board of
trustees deeming this necessary on
account of the increased cost of liv-
ing
The attorney general suggests two
very logical courses to be followed
in the matter. He believes that the
board of trustees of the university
should hold a special meeting and
determine what they are going to do
about the matter, or the institution
should institute mandamus proceed
ings to ascertain the legality of the
Burkitt rider. The latter course
would require but a few days as
Judge Potter has expressed a willing
ness to give immediate hearing to
such a procedure, and it could be
taken up for argument in the SUI
preme court next week.
As it is hardly probable that the
chancellor would authorize a man.
damus proceeding without securing
the sanction of the board of trustees
the course that will probably be fol.
lowed will be the converting Of the
board of trustees at an early date for
a full discussion of the matter.
The legal questions involved CON
Germ not only the university, but the
A. & NJ. college and the Industrial In
stitute and College, the same condi
tions being attached to the appro
priation bills of those institutions.
Until the trustees indicate VIVA
they are going to do in the matter
the draft on the treasury will remain
unpaid.

ASKS ACTION BY CONGRESS.
Continued from page three.)

the same provision that forbade par
ticipation in or instigation of force
or violence against persons or proper
ty, or the attempt to prevent others
from working, by violence, threat,
or intimidation. The business man
must be protected in person and
property, and SO must the farmer and
the wageworker; and as regards all
alike, the right of peaceful combina-
ten for all lawful purposes should be
explicitly recognized.
The right of employers to combine
and contract with one another and
with their employees should be explicit
ly recognized; and 50 should the right
of the employees to combine and to
contract with one another and with
the employers, and to seek peace
ably to persuade others to accept their
views, and to strike for the purpose of
peaceably obtaining from employers
satisfactory terms for their labor.
Nothing should be done to legalize
either a blacklist or boycott that
would be illegal at common law; this
being the type of boycott defined
and condemned by the American
strike commission.
The question of financial legisla-
ton is now receiving such attention
in both houses that we have a right
to expect action before the close of
the session. 1t is urgently necessary
that there should be such action.
! Moreover, action should be taken to
establish postal savings banks. These
postal savings banks are imperative
ly needed for the benefit of the wage
workers and men of small means,
and will be valuable adjunct to
our whole financial system.
The time has come when we should
prepare for a revision of the tariff.
This should be, and indeed must be,
preceded by careful investigation. It
is peculiarly the province of the con-
gress and not of the President, and
indeed peculiarly the province OF the
house of representatives, to originate
tariff bill and to determine upon its
terms; and this I fully realize. Yet
1t seems to me that before the close
Of this session provision should be
made for collecting full material which
will enable the congress elected next
fall to act Immediately after it comes
into existence. This would necessi-
tate some action by the congress at
its present session, perhaps. in the

Return II Given Benefit Of Bond
Don't Want jail.

Jackson, March 25.-Efforts to To-
cate w. ]. Rice, the missing cashier
of the Central Bank of Mississippi,
now defunct have so far proved fu-
tile so far as the work of the officials
is concerned. although it is said the
fugitive has friends here who are in
constant communication with him
and keep him posted as to the move
ments of the officials.
Through this source Rice is said
to have made a proposition to the
officials to the effect that IL he might
be permitted to give bond and not
confined in Jail he would return and
stand trial. This proposition is said
not to have been accepted.
No reward has been offered for the
arrest of Rice, and proposition to
secure his arrest for a stipulated re-
ward is said to have been refused
The banker is said to be making
arrangements to make good the losses
of the bank for which he is held re-
sponsible, and hopesSin this manner
to tighten his troubles in the courts.
The officials and interested parties
are very reticent about the whole
matter. and direct information is diff.
ficult to obtain. Sheriff Harding
however, expresses the opinion that
he will soon have the fugitive in cap
tivity.

shape of directing the proper commit
tee to gather the necessary informa-
ton, both through the committee itself
and through government agents who
should report to the committee and
should lay before it the facts which
would permit it to act with prompt
and intelligent fairness. These gov
eminent agents, If it is not deemed
wise to appoint individuals from out
side the public service, might with
advantage be members of the execu-.
tive departments, designated by the
President, on his own motion or on
the request Of the committee, to act
with it.
am of the opinion, however, that
one change in the tariff could with ad-
vantage be made forthwith. Our for
ests need every protection, and one
method of protecting them would be
to put upon the free list wood pulp,
with a corresponding reduction upon
paper made from wood pulp when
they come from any country that does
not put an export duty upon them.
Ample provision should be made for
a permanent waterways commission,
with whatever power is required to
make it effective. The reasonable ex-
pectation of the people will not be
met unless the congress provides at
this session for the beginning and
prosecution of the actual work of
waterway improvement and control.
The congress should recognize in full
est fashion the fact that the subject
of the conservation of our natural re-
sources, with which this commission
deals. is literally vital for the future
of the nation.
Numerous bills granting water
power rights on navigable streams
have been introduced: None of them
give the government the right to-
make a reasonable charge for the
valuable privileges so granted, in
spite of the fact that these water
power privileges are equivalent to,
many thousands of acres Of tha .bsf.-

MISSISSIPPI NEEDS
ANOP7OMETRY Law
One That viii Protect Its People
From Fakirs and Grafters.
(From Clarion-Ledger.)

The following letter, accompanied
by copy of the bill, was mailed to
each and every member of the legis-
lature before they came to Jackson,
by Hon. ]. L. Dorroh member of the
house from Noxubee county:
Macon, Miss, Dec. 26, 1907.
To the Members of the Senate ant
House of Representatives:
The enclosed bill which is herewith
submitted for your consideration ex-
plains itself. The accurate fitting Of
glasses is now recognized by all au-
thorities as a science peculiar to it.
self, requiring a special technical edu-
cation to do this work properly.
The public of this state has long
been and is now more than ever the
victim of INSCRIPTIONS pretenders,
frauds and fakirs, who travel the state
over, soaring. humbugging and swind-
ling the ignorant and innocent, and,
as a rule, are not citizens of this state
and have no character or reputation to
sustain.
The bill imposes no hardships upon
any reputable merchant, dealer Of OPP
tician, but affords very much needed
protection to the public. 1t is abso-
lutely self-sustaining from the start
and ultimately will be a source of
some revenue to the school funds of
this state.
The passage of this bill will be in
line with the principles involved in the
passage of laws governing educational
standards of law. medicine. pharmacy,
dentistry, etc. Fourteen of the states
have laws similar to this bill; our
sister state of Tennessee having just
put in force such law, which has had
the effect of dumping her itinerant IA
kris into this state to prey upon our
people
All that I ask at your hands is a
fair, conscientious and intelligent con-
sideration of this matter, believing
in that instance you will find no rea-
son why same should not become a
law.

Very respectfully,

L. Il. DORROH.
This bill was submitted to the Mis-
sissippi State Optical Association in
December last at its meeting in this
city (Jackson) and was endorsed by
that Association by a rising vote of
every member present.
With this law upon the statutes, in
five years almost every county of
this state would have a specialist of
honorable standing and citizenship,
led to trust this most precious of all
senses to some ephemeral wandering
arab, whose sole object is to "get the
mon." or else to make long Journey
to some of the largest cities of the
state. The writer of this article en-
dorsed and advocated House Bill No.
80, To regulate the Practice of Optic
metry, without one selfish motive,
and only on the grounds of justice
and humanity, and deeply regrets
that through lack of a more thorough
knowledge of the value and intents
of this bill, it should have been indefi
nitely postponed. and therefore
killed" for this session, by the
Senate, though it had been unani-
mously recommended that it do
pass" by both House and Senate
Committees on Public Health and
Quarantine, and had the endorsement
of every medical doctor in either
body.
Ifwant to ask every member of
the Mississippi legislature, who is in.
terested in the welfare of his consti.
tuents and the public generally, and
is willing to do justice to the capable
student of this wonderful modern
science, to thoroughly post himself on
the needs of this State of an Optic.
metry law.
If you will do this gentlemen; ask
the wearers of glasses among your
constituents what they think of this
find out the many people in your coun
ties that have been humbugged and
swindled by pretenders. Ask your peo
pie If they would not like to-be able
to tell when a man comes to their
town or to their homes, If he is a stu
dent of optometry, and has a license
to practice granted him by State
Board of Optometry or only fakir
out to humbug and graft. If you will
do this gentlemeny both branches OF
our law-making body will pass an op
tometry law at its next session with
out dissenting vote.
