LEAD PRoFRssOR GAYS TOO
MUCH ATTENTION AND MONEY
ARE DEVOTED no HIGH
SCHOOL.

BtgeloW, OF the Lead City o 70
elected - q legislative member OF
tho coming session. from Lawrence
county. he promises that there will
be something doing along the lines
OF educational legislation. He is an
advocate Of Q complete reversal In
form Of the educational laws OF the
state. His theory In brief Is that
not to exceed I'VE per cent of the pu-
pills who enter the public schools 60
beyond such schools in their educa-
tional training. but that the whole
educational system from the date the
child enters the school. mp to the
time OF graduation, is being con
Quoted for the benefit Of this Ave
per cent or less, and to the detri-
ment of the ninety-fve per cent who
can not get the benefits given to the
five per cent. That there is too much
waste product for the output Of the
schools. and that they should be con-
Quoted for the benefit Of the larger
number of pupils as their primary
object. and only incidentally for the
benefit of the few; instead Of the
present plan which makes their con-
duct primarily for the benefit Of the
few, and incidentally for the many.
In his 10 he appears to have the
backing of a number of the educat-
ors Of the state, who stand ready to
help him in any legislation he at
tempts along such lines.
Amendment Should Uass.
two years ago the people of the
state were asked to vote on a consti-
tutional amendment which had as
one OF its purposes the taking OF Of
the Limitation Of tax levies for state
purposes. The amendment contain
ed features in regard to income and
taxes, and better meth
DDS of getting at corporate property
for taxation, but its one bad feature
it in the eyes of the peo-
pie and it went down to defeat. This
year a similar amendment, without
the Objectionable features Of two
years ago is being submitted. Some
OF the papers Of the state are taking
the position that the present amend
ment cuts out the Limitation, Of state
tax levy, but it does not. 1t having
been drawn particularly to avoid
that very objection to the old amend
ment, as we'll as to avoid other OBJ
jections raised at the last election.
The present amendment appears to
be one which will assist in a better
system Of taxation in the state, and
has no visible objections.

pie of the state, and will be in de.

Dear Mr.. Gaines;
We are sorry that we can not
report more progress for this
week, for not many measures
nave passed either houses. but
it has been a busy week for the
committees. more than hundred
bills have been reported favor
ably and more than fifty unfavoy-

have been successful in killing
in committees many bills fraught
with danger to the public. More
mischievous and class legislation

years of experience. Seven out
of every ten bills seem to be

but encouraging to the tax payer.
Enough appropriations are ask

government, and the condition
of the treasury does not seem to
be any check on the legislation

READ The FOLLOWING
REP0RI-JUSI ISSUED.

| am Just in receipt of the Wes-
eru Tobacco Journal of January
81. 1910. The Weston Tobacco
Journal has decided Trust lean
ings. and is critical and CEN
serious towards all farmers to-
bacco organizations. And yet,
as viii appear from the follow
ing article taken from the col
mns Of the w. T. Journal of last
Monday, Jan. 81. the amendment
t. tac tobacco law popularity
known as the Stanley Amend
ment. during the first six months
OF its operation, created three
hundred and forty-three more
licensed tobacco dealers, who are
purchasers of tobacco in the leaf,
who are now purchasers of to-
bacco in the leaf, for resale at
retail. whereas under the old
law these same dealers could not
and did not buy a leaf of tobacco
for resale in the leaf at retail.
For under the old law all deal
ers had to pay a six cents tax to
sell leaf tobacco by retail, where
as under the Stanley Amendment
all dealers may sell tobacco.
bought from the producer, in the
notural leaf without the payment
Of one cent in tax. AS will be
seen from the article to follow,
the 343 dealers, licensed under
the Stanley Amendment. are
scattered over twenty-four
States. They have thus far sold
one hundred and six thousand
pounds of tobacco in the natural
leaf. And this is a mere begin
ming. The sales of leaf tobacco
will be cumulative-will increase
in geometrical ratio. And with
in a few years, it is my firm con-
viction, tobacco growers will
have, instead of one Trust buyer,
thousands of buyers of tobacco
in the natural leaf. | trust every
member will attentively read the

The farmers are sleeping on

money away for foreign missions
and neighbors children. This is
a striking Illustration, but is not
over drawn. However hard
your representative may work.
you will wake up some morning
and find a commission made up
of representative ofother inter

and other classes Of property be-
longing to farmers raised to al
most double the present rate.

fact, that the farmers taxes are

The anti abortion bill has pass

it will doubtless pass the Senate

The temperance fight is drag

Bill up in the House having been
made and failed to get the two

Much feeling has been aroused
over this question. Many charges

and the Senate is investigating
the charge.
There is no doubt that some
promises have been broken,
some sacred trusts have been be-
trayed and an indignant consti-

and retribution to Him that said,

NO law could be made strong
