q am proud of my party he said
proud of its traditions and proud of
what it has Accomplished in Oklahoma
They say we have burdened the peo-
pie in excessive taxes. You cant
charge an excessive levy in Enid to
the party. if it exceeds two and one
half per cent, which is the state tax
All that you have in excess of that is
chargeable to the county. The rec.
ords show that taxes are higher in the
republican counties than in democratic
counties, and in Carter county, dem
ocratic county, we paid 2S mill levy,
while in Logan county. a republican
county, and one of the oldest in the
state, has i6 mills. In the recent extra
session of the legislature, bill was
introduced providing for a reduction
Of the maximum tax levy of 80 mills
to 20 mills and the democrats voted
for the reduction and every republican
voted against it; and yet they want
us to deliver this state into the hands
of the republicans.

number of bridges, school houses and

Referring to the charge made by
Joe McNeal that the credit of the
state is bad, Mr.. Cruce declared that
republican slander, republican mis-
representation and republican calum-
ny have done more to retard the
business of this state than any panic
or pestilence could possibly have
done. Mr.. Cruce contended that the
question of Indian taxes is the
greatest question of this campaign
and will be the biggest issue for
years to come. You are just be.
ginning the burden of TAXATION" he
said, and 1t is a burden that will
rest upon you for 81 years. One
third of the land of this state is
not taxable and the burden falls

the act Of congress removing re.

and not until 1909 did those Indian
lands become taxable, hence Muir

BROWN REVIEWS
PROGRESS MADE
Annual Report of Commissioners
of Education Is Given
Out.

Washington. d. C., December 20
An incomprehcnsivc review of the
progress made in American education
during the past year is contained IN
the first volume of the annual report
of Dir. Elmer Ellsworth Brown, Com
missioner of Education of the United
States, made public to-day
There are many activities closely
related to education which have re-
ceived large measure of attention
in recent months. according to Com
missioner Brown. Libraries and mu-
seums, apprenticeships public PLAY
grounds, home and school associations
such interests as these sometimes
treated as lying just outside of the
educational enclosure. There. is. he
SAYS, ian unmistakable tendency to
widen the Enclosure and to bring these
things into some relation with the
regular scholastic administration.
There are, moreover, numerous
undertakings which took to an en-
tension of educational opportunities to
those who have left school and have
passed the age of compulsory school
ing Evening and other combinations
schools. public lectures correspond
ence courses, home studies of the Chau-
tauaua type, are all familiar en-
ainples"
Some of these things, he says are
distinctivclv American, and have helped
to make reputation for American edu-
eational enterprise abroad.
The extension of tho area of conf
puIsorv school attendance has gons
forward" says Commissioner Brown
but the number of young Americans
who are allowed to srow UP with only
mcagro schooling Is still distressinsis
large"
Taking up the subject OF higher eiu
cation. Or. Brown says that this work
the country over is ono great ma
fronal undertaking, the prosecution oil
which is divided out among many m
stitutions.'
He declares that there should be an
agreement among the colleges vita
respect to admission requirements,
which should do away with minor dit-
ferences that harass the preparatory
schools. This, lie argues. would rid
the educational situation of some Of Us
most serious embarrassments.

Potash For Sale to All.

Farmers who farm on business principles
and fertilize their soils as a manufacturer
puts money into a plant-for investment
have never needed much argument to be
convinced that potash Pays" as the Ger
man Kali Works puts it. The trouble for
the farmer has been not only the price, but
the difficulty of getting Potash at any
price. The manufacturers have heretofore
absorbed it n.
All this has been changed, and thousands
of farmers who farm for profit rather than
for mere wages and living, will now be
able to buy all the Potash Salts they need,
in any quantity they want it. of local deal
ers everywhere. Anc not only this-but
they can get it at lower rates than have
ever before been charged.
This means that farmers can now invest
IN plant foods that they themselves can buy
and mix-fertilizers without filters or make
weights--and put the money saved from in
terest. freight, excessive profits on filters
and mixing charges into 50 much more
actual crop-making fertilizer.
The great German potash mines are now
producing enough potash to enable the
American selling agency to guarantee deliv-
cry of all that il required both by fertilizer
manufacturers and by local dealers and

EQUAL PAY IN FRANCE.
French Women Teachers Object to
Lower Salaries Than Men Get.

The first university women's con-
gress of France was held recently at
Nancy. The most important Ques-
ton discussed was that of equality
Of salaries for teachers OF both sexes
in primary schools.
The women teachers demand that
their pay shall be equal to that OF
the men At present the difference
for the same class Of work is large.
For instance, in Paris a woman OF
the third class receives S440 year,
while man of the same rank gets
$40.
The women school teachers argue
that they take the same diplomas as
the mon, do the same work. prepare
pupils fer the same examinations,
are expected to produce rs good re-
suits, have the same time table and
work as long except where they WORK
longer. They maintain that men
have not any more legitimate needs
than women and that the charges
laid on tho man are not heavier than
