THE view of Governor Hoke Smith,
Of Georgia. as to the education Of the
white child and Of the negro child is
thus set out in his message to the
LEGISLATURE now in session. 1.-THE fu-
1ure of our State requires that there
shall be no illiteracy among our white
children. I dc not mean any unklnd-
ness to the negro child by this dis
elimination, but I do not believe that
instruction from books, except Of a
simple character, is Of any benefit to
a considerable portion Of them. Ed
ucation should fit for life with a view
TO character and possibilities of the
children. The difference between the
races should be recognized by the
county school commissioners and they
should not hesitate to do SO on &C
count of the maudlin criticisms that
may come upon them from certain
classes of Would-be philanthrOpists Of
other sections who do not understand
the true nature Of the negro or the
true relations Of the races

In the last thirty years the world
production oil wheat has increased
from 1000, 600, 900 bushels annual
ly to 3,aoo, 900, 600 bushels. When
we consider the increased price, il
will be readily seen that somebody
has added enormously to the pro.
fits OF wheat production. II is in.
creased consumption OF course,
the spectators have nothing to do
with il. II this is not quite clear
to those interested, the News will
gladly refer the consumer to Mr..
Patten, OF the Chicago wheat pit,
who is fishing this week along the
shady stream OF northern New
Mexico. He might explain some
thing about the s. dollar -four
that was on the market a few days

something by way OF explanation
OF the plan by which he accumu-

corner on wheat a few days ago.

That notorious Sweezy bill
about which there has been So
much said in The newspapers OF
OF the territor the past
month, is published in full in
this issue OF the News. There is
nothing IN i. that will result in any
benefit either to the publisher or
the people. Neither is it any com.
pliment to the Spanish inhabitants
OF the territory tina, the bill re-
quires the publication OF the ma.
lority OF legal matters in both
Spanish and English, as the most
oil them read and write better
English than the author OF this
bill. The territory has been tor
years trying 10 get rid OF lnterpre-
ters in the courts and the Assemb.
ly, etc, IN order TO lessen the ex.
pense OF conducting the public
business. The English language
is the language OF the country, we
are no longer subjects OF Mexico
or a province OF Spain. The Mex
lean people realize it and are much
pleased that 1t is so. The two
language feature OF the bill is the
greatest bull in it. IL doubles ex.
penses and does not increase prot.
its, which is the OF what
every business mar strives to at
tain IN the world oil commerce.
As TO- the publishing OF the min.
utes OF the city councils OF the ter.
ritory, there probably never was a
sitting OF n OF these bod es where
there were less than one to one.
halt dozen newspaper reporters
present, and as many citizens as
cared to attend and listen to the
proceedings. The newspapers are
always on the lookout tor anything
in the way OF news that happens
at a meeting Of a city council, and
the people OF Tucumcari can rest
assured that little OF consequence
has ever happened at a session Of
this council that has not been
chronlcled and in many instances
commented on by the representa-.
tives oi this paper through It's col.
umns. Still there is little OBJ
lection to this paragraph OF the
bill except the expense OF IL. No
further publicity would he given
than is had at present where the
newspapers are doing their duty.
Again 'he publishing OF proposed
ordinances tour weeks before they
are put on final passage is another
useless expense, as these ordi-
nances are always iorecssted by
the press after they are discussed
in council and the people made
aware OF the proposed law before
II is enacted; aud. before an or.
dinanee becomes law it must he
