$4,000; the general council esti-
mated the probable revenue on a
35 cent levy at approximately $751;
900 Back taxes and penalties based
on that rate are collected every year
and not included in the apportion-
ment. The money is collected from
the taxpayers at a rate, including
1915 of the total for the schools.
The city solicitor says that, notwith-
standing more is collected for school
purposes than the budget estimate
apportions, the surplus goes to the
city to be divided among other de-
partments. That amounts practi-
cally to collecting money from the
taxpayers for school purposes and
using it for something else. There
are several thousand dollars involved
in this controversy.
We do not believe City Treasurer
Walters is responsible for the state
ment that the floating debt of the
schools was assumed by the city, or
that a total of $4,000 in gifts has
been received by the schools from
the city this year: but in justice
both to the watchdogs of the treas
ury, and to the careful administra-
tors of the school funds, we think
the story deserves explicit denial.

that are from so cents to $500 over
those prevailing at this time last
year. During the week there was

two sales being held on the three
loose floors. these being on Tuesday
and Thursday. Offerings for the
week aggregated 5000 pounds and
prices ranged from $3.50 TO $1,000
per hundred. The tobacco offered
was nearly entirely low grades, that
was brought In by the farmers to
get some Christmas money. II was
all very dry and In poor condition.
A considerable portion of the offer
ings had been sprinkled TO get Il
pliable enough to handle. Consider
ing these things, the prices paid
were high.

SENATOR JIM.

Senator Jim Frazier has an in
stinctive repugnance for an opinion
on anything, and that instinct has
stood him in good stead twice within
a year. He kept out of the last
Tennessee embroglio because he
couldn't make up his mind which
side had the biggest following, and
he declined to join in the whitewash-
ing of Lorimer. We have not al
was been numbered among Jim
Frazier's keenest admirers for the
very reason that we never could pin
him down to an expression OF opin-
ion: but we must admit that, giving
him credit in both Instances for the
clean side OF the situation, we are
bound to observe, in view of the
senatorial situation in Tennessee, he
has also played mighty good politics.
People will begin to call him 'hon-
est Jim" first thing he knows. We
should hate to get any of the Lorimer
whitewash on our hands: we are
afraid it wouldn't hold its color.

EDITOR KILLED
MURRAY, OF PINE
BLUFF PRESS-EAGIE.
Shot Twice In the Head; Ed and
Gus Lelaurin Are His
Assailants.

Pine Bluff, Ark, Dec. 2O.-Arthur
Murray, editor and owner Of the
Press-Eagle and one of the oldest
and wealthiest residents of this city,
was assaulted and shot at the en-
trance of the Brookhill hotel by Ed
and Gus Lelaurin, sons of A. A.
Lelaurin, a local iron manufacturer
and will probably die.
Murray was taken TO the Florence
Santtarium. where the physicians say
his condition is critical The trouble
grew out of an old difference between
A. A. Lelaurin, father OF the assail-
ants, and Murray OF years standing.
although II was thought that the
matter was ended.
Murray was leaving the Brookhill
saloon with Thomas 5. James. an
intimate friend and local capitalist
of prominence. when the Lelaurin
boys. who had Just left the saloon
ahead Of them. attacked Murray, as
saulting him. and before Murray had
time TO defend himself two shots
were fired. Both bullets entered his
head and he dropped TO the floor.
The two Lelaurins. who are but 81
and "a years old. fled south on Ala
bama street and disappeared in the
darkness.
They have not been arrested.

Five dollars apiece a year from

spread of the disease, and heal 80

AS TO THAT CHRISTMAS
PRESENT

In justice to the school trustees
who through good business manage
ment have paid off a floating debt OF
$4,000, and in justice to the men,
bers of the general council, who are
entrusted with the appropriation OF
the city's finances, II is only fair
that the News-Democrat's statement
this morning that the city volun-
tarily assumed a floating debt of
$4,000 for the schools at the begin
ming of the year and will pay them
$4,000 more as a Christmas pres
ent', should be denied as being as
false as 1t is absurd. Far from as
suming any floating debt, under an
opinion OF the city solicitor the city
is Withholding from the schools
money that from every viewpoint of
! equity and justice belongs to them.
With regard to the Christmas
gift: at the beginning of the fiscal
year of 1910 the finance committee
of the school board represented to
the general council that there still
remained a floating debt OF $4,000,
which the taxpayers must pay in
terest on this until 1t was wiped out
and that II would be necessary for
the schools to take the money to
meet the debt in June from the next
school years revenue, thus curtail-
ing plans for the betterment of the
schools. The committee suggested
that, since it was the taxpayers
business, anyway, IL the general
council would add $4,000 to the
school revenues, that debt could be
taken care of and the plans for the
schools Improvements could proceed
without hindrance.
The general council in committee
of the whole rejected the idea as
impossible, but did estimate in the
budget $4,000 additional for the
schools and promised the school
trustees, that If there was balance
of as much as $4,000 at the end OF
this year. it would be paid over to
the board, and that the trustees
could go ahead with their school
plans, including this additional s3,-
900 in their estimate of expenses
for the ensuing year.
All conditions have been fulfilled:
the estimate was made. including
the $4,000. the balance is on hand
in the city treasury and it remains
only for the finance committee of
the general council to appropriate
the $4,000 for the schools. Whether
the schools will get the money now
is problematical. Of course. Nothing
has been done so far to make good
the promise. I
Reference was made in the be-
ginning to money withheld from the
schools. Suit is pending for set

THE RIVERS AGAIN.

That Memphian, who thinks IL un-
fair that $4,000, 900 should be APP
propriated for strengthening levees
on the lower Mississippi, the only
work necessary, while s65.000,000 is
expended on the Ohio. takes the mar
row view that government funds are
spoils for distribution among the
states, and he wants his'n.
The Ohio river traverses a much
more fertile and populous section,
with immensely greater tonnage than
the lower Mississippi. Its two tribu-
taries, the Cumberland and Tennes-
see, tap cotton, mineral and coal
countries. parts of which depend en-
tirely on the river for transporta-
ton. II is essential to the opening
of these streams that the Ohio also
be kept open the year around. The
lower Mississippi is perennially navi-
gable: the Ohio. Tennessee and Cum
berland should be provided with
locks and dams to make them navi-
gable the year around.
When this is done and these
streams. of just as much importance
as the Mississippi, are placed on an
