STAY ALL NIGHT HERE.
Pathfinder Drivers Think That VIII
i, BE the Order.

The Pathfinder car Of the Kansas
City Star endurance run reached
Abilene at s o'clock Wednesday,
with M. O.. Nolan at the wheel, W.
@. Whitcomb. pathfinder and George.
II. Blndbeutel, a representative Of
the Star. 1--WE do not decide the
night stops" said Mr. Nolan. THAT
is done by the automobile club but
il is probable that Abilene will be
the last night STOP"
The star representative put It this
way: IF we stop at Hays, only 1bO
miles away, It Is likely that we shall
push on to Junction City for the
night stop, much as we should like
to make Abilene a visit"
The Pathfinder is big six-cylin-
der Stevens Duyrea and It had 1924
miles checked off in the past two
weeks run when It reached Abilene.
on its totem pole II had thirty PEN
nants presented by the towns pass
ed. The Abilene pennant was add
ed to the collection. G. M. Harger
and +. v. Prendergast met the car
at salina and the former acted as
pilot to the east side of Abilene.
The route enters Abilene on South
Second to Washington, North to
Third, east to Broadway, south to-
Park, where cars will be placed UNI
der guard for night, east on Second,
north on Buckeye, east on Four
teenth street.
The road to Sallna is In fine con-
ditlon and the car made swift time.
All the unbroken stretches were run.
at 40 to As miles an hour and sew
eral miles at 4S miles an hour, which
is too fast for comfort.
The run will be in August, leav-
ing Kansas city Monday morning

tract but the following brief sum
mary Of it's failings seems to me a
sufficient proof of its unjust dis
elimination against the people:
That, the measure tends to do
away with competition and in doing
away with competition It establishes
combinations.
/ That 1t allows companies to make
their own rate which naturally
would be drawn to their own advan-
tage. -
That, that which is practically the
same as the large combinations In
other states and which is continually
being met with foreign opposition, is
licensed in the state Of Kansas by
law.
That 1t practically stands for class
legislation, In that It permits the
companies and the commissioner, In
place Of the people, and the compa-
mics to decide on the rates of insur-
ance charged.
That it enables the insurance COM
pany to collect the same amount OF
premium as heretofore without hav-
ing to compete as do other business.
IS vi is beneficial to the insurer
only, and not to the people.

IApouT TEAoHRR,s sAIARIEs.
Prof. Tyler Urges Better Wages Not
Lower In County.

Editor Reflector: notice that In
a circular letter to the school boards
Of this county, the county superin-
tend INSISTS. that the wages Of in
experienced teachers are too high
(using capital letters) and suggests
the following schedule; $50 for
teachers who come highly recon-
mended from the county superintend-
emit and school board Of previous
year; $50 for teachers without par
ticular FAULTS, sS5 and s4o9 for
beginners, except persons Of VERY
unusual qualities" To the credit
Of the county, be It said that last
year there were no $50 salaries and
only three $40 ones, This revision Of
salaries downward idea comes at the
time of the graduation Of the first
class in the Normal training course
of the high schools Of the state,
which state superintendent Fair
child regards as the biggest step IN
LII administration toward furnishing
the rural schools with better trained
teachers. According to this, the
people who have taken four year
high school course with special trait
ing for teaching the subjects In the
country school curriculum and have
passed the state examination in such
courses. are confronted with the
proposition Of working for less
wages than the people heretofore
have received whose preparation con.
sisted Of four weeks institute work.
This is certainly a great encourage
ment for a country teacher to get an
education! Unless superintendent
EAumiller includes the graduates Of
this course in the list Of those with
every unusual qualities" they, to-
eether with good many other capa-
BE and desirable young teachers,
must come in the $S5 and $40 class.
This slap at Normal training in the
high schools can hardly be justified
BY experience, for this is the first
class to graduate from this course,
And If ii is inappropriate in general,
ii Is peculiarly inappropriate here,
for while the percentages Of failures
over the state as a whole in the state
examination was within a fraction Of
20 per cent, in the local high school
1t was less than per cent. The ex,,
perienced and successful teachers
over the country should certainly re-
ceive at least as high salaries as in
the past and be made to feel that
their success is worth dollars and
cents to the district; but unless the
idea is to drive the pick Of the new
teachers to other counties to stay, to
discourage special training for rural
teaching, and to rank the county
with the backward ones in educa-
tional affairs, the doctrine Of lower
salaries seems to me a very doubtful
one 1t Il to be hoped that the
boards Of the county win consult
their sense Of fairness before they
adopt the Ss5 schedule.

excuse why the state Of Kansas
should sanction the very thing which
they are striving 50 ardently to do
away with? a
Another strong point, against the
measure, is that on the surface It
gives the state commissioner Of In
surance control over the rates. But
this is not exactly true, for before he
can raise or lower q rate he must
give the company at least thirty
days notice Of his Intentions and at
that the company has the privilege of
presenting and arguing their side.
should they convince him that their
rate is right, he will permit them to
hold it, in which case the commits
sioner has taken the privilege from
the people, Of deciding what the
rates should be and hence 1t can be
seen that this is favoring the Sfew
and leading toward class legislation,

session OF 1sOy, and which provides
for the regulation and control Of 'hqi
atcs cf rismium and the supposedly
preventing Of discrimination has
caused many persons to differ in OPP
inion as to whether It Is a beneficial
and Just law.
The principal clauses of the meas
ure are as follows: Section 8, nWlssn
the superintendent Of insurance shall
determine that any rate made by an
insurance, company in this state Isl
excessive or unreasonably high, or
that said rate is not adequate to the
safety or soundness Of the company
granting the same, he is authorized
to direct said company to publish and
file higher or lower rate, which
shall be commensurate with the
character Of the risk, but in every
case the rate shall be reasonable. 81
Section I. "That no fire insure
ance company shall directly or In
directly by any special tariff, rebate,
drawback or other device, charge, de
mand, collect or receive from, any
person or persons greater or less
Edr different compensation for the I'M

der similar circumstances ana con-
ditlons in the state; and any fire IN
surance company violating any Of the
provisions, Of this law shall be DEEM
ed guilty Of unjust discrimination
which is hereby declared to be un-
lawful"
One Of the principal arguments
which those in favor OF the law al
vance is that 1t effects everybody,
both large and small businesses ricn
and poor individuals alike ana that
in this way It gives the poor the
same rights and advantages as It
does the rich. That Is, man con-
trolling say 100000 Of insurance
policies is compelled to pay the same
premium as he who has but 5000. On
first thought this argument appears
to be a good one and one that in
itself would make the law Of some
value and consideration but observ-
ing more closely, twill be found that
although there Is no favor shown the
different persons insured 1t is bound
to favor the insurers themselves and
give them a still greater opportunity
Of receiving larger dividends.
The law provides, or putting it4
more plainly, 1t permits the differ
