Mayor Murphy has appointed a
good library commission. Now let us
hope that the commission will equiv

cure a trained librarian. The city
government and the people of the city

The State University.

The same old fight is on in the
Missouri Legislature over appro.
priations for the state univer-
sity. The board of curators of
the great state school is asking
for a large appropriation. This
gives a glorious opportunity for
a lot of cheap representatives to
hear themselves talk by oppos-
ing the appropriation. Missouri
should have a great central
school in keeping with its finan.
Icial and material progress.
There is nothing too good for the
coming in Missouri boys and
girls and this great state is no
longer a backwoods community.
1t must keep pace with other
great states and must have a
great public school second to
none. There are always indif-
ferent men in the state legisla-
ture whose ideas are narrow and
compressed. These men come
from the school districts where
some poor poor girl ekes out a
precarious existence on $40 per
month, and the distinguished
solon thinks this is enough for
the college "purfessors" and that
a few thousand dollars is enough
to run the state school. Then
