Cotton Planting Begins.

With favorable weather conditions
prevailing generally over the State, there
promises to be a large amount of cot
ton planting during the week, especially
in the central and Southern counties.
In the delta, planting is indefinitely
delayed in some sections, owing to the
high water. 1t will take clear skies and
a steady fall in the Mississippi river to
make conditions favorable for planting
in the delta before the first week in
April.
Corn planting is also general in the
hill counties, the soil is in fair shape,
and there is every reason to believe that
the farmers will make good Roadway
with their work. ~,
Cotton acreage depends largely on
weather conditions. There will doubt
less be a small reduction in the hill
counties. where the boil weevil has made
it's appearance, and practically the same
acreage in the delta, if the waters sub
side in time for the planters to pitch
their crops.

Senator Aldrich Opposes Inheritance
Tax-Finance Committee Against
All Forms of Stamp Tax.

Washington.-That a determined eff
fort will be made to reduce public e x
penditures to such an extent that gov
ernmental needs may be met by reve-
nues derived from duties on imports, and
without resorting to any of the special
taxation schemes that have been sug-
gested in connection with tariff revision,
is indicated by a remark made Tuesday
by Senator Aldrich, chairman of the
senate committee on finance.
Mr.. Aldrich was asked to give his
opinion of the plan enormously accred-
tied to President Taft to place a tax
on dividends declared by corporations.
Mr.. Aldrich replied that he had not
given thought to it, and added that he
would not concern himself with any OF
the various plans to raise revenues by
special taxes until it could be ascer-
tanned how much revenue could be pro-
duced by levying duties on imports, and
whether the running operations OF the
government could not be decreased so
dS I " IIuhC SpCCAoI toASo
Great significance is attached to the
remark made by Mr.. Aldrich. 1t is as
serted upon what is thought to be ac-
curate information that a majority of
the members of the finance committee
regard with disfavor the proposed in
heritance tax feature, the proposed in
come tax, levies upon dividends of cor
porations, tax on coffee and practically
all forms of stamp taxes.
1t is recognized that in the form in
which the Payne bill was reported to
the house from the ways and means
committee, sufficient revenues to pay
the running expenses of the government
cannot be collected from duties on i'm
ports alone. The inference drawn from
Mr.. Aldricn's expression, therefore, is
that the revision of the tariff must be
of an upward trend, and hat the con-
gress must curtail the tendency to ex.
pand annual appropriations at each sue.

Compliment to Mississippi.

The Mississippi Industrial Institute
and College, the great institution located
in Columbus, and of which all Missis-
sippians call with pride "a Model
School," will be taken as a model for
the Industrial Institute and College OF
Oklahoma. This idea, SO it seems, is the
outcome of efforts on the part of Col.
thomas J. O'Neill, a former resident OF
Columbus, who now lives in Chickasha
Okla. The bill Tor an industrial schoo'
for this new State passed the legisla'
tive bodies some eighteen months ago
and actual work is soon to begin. Col.
CNeill has ~explicated Mississippi's
greatness along educational lines with
such force that the residents of Okla
homa are so convinced with the thor.
oughness and greatness of the school
that its p~rototyp will soon be located
in their midst and their women receiving
the same incompatible advantages the
women and girls of Mississippi now re-
ceive. This is a great compliment to
Mississippi.

JACKSON.
School Matter Settled.

State Superintendent of Education
General Stirling an opinion, the con-
illusions of which will be of interest to
the men in charge of public schools in
the several counties. The opinion was
sought pursuant to the receipt of a
query from Superintendent l.. H.. Jobe,
of Tippah county, who appears to be
right in the middle of a bad fix finan-
cially, which is that he needs money
for the settlement of teachers pay war
rants, and that there is none to that ac-
count in the county treasury. He points
out, however, that there is the June
distribution forthcoming, and that if it
ent demands by anticipating the June
appropriation, which, when received, can
be covered back into the treasury.
In his answering opinion the attor-
ney-general holds, after quoting the Sec
tions of the statute law bearing on
school fund distribution, that it is mani
fest the money appropriated for the use
of the public schools is for use at any
time during the year, and whether it is
in the treasury to the credit of the
county school Juno during the actual
scholastic year, or whether it be used
after that period, so long as it is ap-
piled during the year for which it is APP
propriated, it is obvious that the actual
payment of the amount due can be made
in anticipation of the receipt of the au-
ditur's warrant of distribution. Of
course, the money so used must not ex-
coed the amount that will be actually
due when the June distribution is made.
State Superintendent Powers states
that the opinion of the encouragement
covers his own conception of the law, as
well as that held by some of the county
superintendent; but there are others,
like Superintendent Jobe, who want to
be shown before taking an advance
step.
