SCHOOL PROGRESS
 OF LAST DECADE
Supt. Cook Presents Interesting Sta tistics Showing What Arkansas Has Accomplished in Past 10 Years-50 Per Cent Gain
 in Teachers.

Superintendent George E. Cook, of the department of education, has sub mitted some interesting facts com pairing the condition Of the public schools with that of 10 years ago and showing the marked progress made in the state during that period.
 Among other things, attention is |called to the fact that the number of teachers employed in the schools has increased from 6,727 in 1899 to 9,1b4 in 1909; while the average monthly salary for teachers during the same period has increased from s10.13 to s55.77
 The valuation of school property In 1909 was s6,067,342, being nearly two and half times that of 1899. There have been 2,652 new buildings erected in the last 10 years, or an average Of 265 school buildings each year, at an average valuation of s1,129. Not a single log schoolhouse was greeted last year, lAe llioI tilhV ehi9 1-0S the case.
 Ten years ago there was a total school population of 472,5OS, while last year the enumeration showed
 school population of 557,46S. Ten years ago the total amount raised TOT the support of the schools of the state was s1yS61,199, or about S3.93 per child. Last year the total amount had increased to $4,363,S3O, or s7.s2 per child-almost exactly double that 10 years before per capital.
 Another increase of material inter- est is shown by Superintendent Cooks figures in the matter Of the school tax limits. Ten years ago the maximum school tax limit was seven mills. Now it is 10 mills and in many localities the maximum is being vot- ed. says Superintendent Cook.
 The length of the school term has increased from 76 days in 1S99 to 9S days in 1909, an increase of 90 per cent in the length of the annual school term.
 Mir. Cook advocates the general ap- plication of compulsory school at tendance law, the general adoption or county superintendency, the unlflca- tion of the school system, state aid to bio, schools. the extension of the work of teaching hort'cu'ture and az riculture and other educational mat tors soon to come prominently before tta people of the state for final soin- tion.

THE MAN WITH i MARBLE HEART

Governor George W. Donaghes has issued q total or 156 pardons It is doubtful if the release of any one of the 156 convicts was as necessary as freedom to W Y Ellis, the unfor- tunate young man who is in exceed ingly poor health and whom learn ed physicians say, cannot live many months He is a sufferer from tuber- culoss and many believe that Will Ellis will die before he serves one year of the three year sentence that hangs over him. Should his death occur at an unhealthy, unsanitary, and isolated convict camp, Governor Donaghey. the man without a heart, would be guilty of murder You can term it nothing else It would be murder pure and simple and the frail young mans friends would never forgive the chief executive Cover nor Donaghey's conscience would re- pay him in full for his inhuman cold bloodedness.
 Grandstand Donaghey would have the people of Arkansas believe that he is fair and sincere in his refusal of the Ellis pardon.
 We publish the following extract from his-or rather the Little Rock attorney s statement-on the Ellis pe- tition
 The courts are the bulWark of our liberties. To nullify their acts and weaken their authority, when care fully and properly exercised. leads practically to anarchy
 Did Governor Donaghey practice what he breaches when Chancellor Martineau restrained him from inter- fering with the state capitol work? What did Grandstand Donaghey do? He appealed the case to the Supreme court and before that court handed down it's ruling, the Governor Con- tractor defied the chancery court, went to the new capitol building and broke down the door, He took charge and declared that he would not heed the orders of the court: that he was the governor and the owner of Arkansas and the capitol building and he would do as he pleased, or something to that effect Did Governor George, as the chief executive of Arkansas, set a good example for would-be law breakers |? Did he demonstrate that the courts are the bulwark of our liberties 2" Who nullified the acts and weakened the authority of the Pulaski chan cery court? Who by his actions, im- pressed the outside world with the idea that Arkansas had a governor of anarchistic tendencies? Was Gov ernor Donaghey unfolding he law in defviro the courts?
 It happened to he case where Ho~erpo~ D~v-~' av'c noreNnal ynter- ests were v4tali- afacted There is m old saving that man never op-

 Had poor Will Ellis been a negro <. and q $25 per pardon lawyer present. ed a petition for his release from the the penitentiary, tuberculosis or no tuberculosis. Donashey might have issued the pardon and there would have been no necessity for the Gov ernors brilliant legal adviser to spend weeks preparing classic : which was shaped for campaign Pur- poses.
 Let's admit that Ellis is cold blooded murderer, and Donaghey would have. the world believe it. Let's say Ellis "assassinated the law" when he defended the honor of his sorrow burdened wife. Let's all agree that Ellis deserved a longer sentence than that given him, on his own admission of guilt. What then?
 Is it for Governor Donaghey to say that he is a menace to society," Is it proper for Governor Donaghey to declare in a written statement, which he took pains to have sent all over
 the country as d second-term adyer tisement, that Ellis 'trampled on the laws of our civilization and defied the courts?' What right has the gov ernor of the state to argue the case when all he would have to do would he to sign the petition and add the word Refused 2. Has he made a cam PaisH argument out of any other par.

 What did you do. Governor Dona- shey, when George Coleman. a Jef- ferson county negro. was given term | of years in the state penitentiary for l money under false pretenses from an ignorant Chinaman? After sentence had been passed on him and he was granted bond on an appeal to | the Supreme Court you freed him. Why did you do that? Was it because l one of your henchmen in this county happened to be the attorney, whom 1 Coleman employed to ask for a pardon for him? Did you uphold the Jefferson circuit court and the lawful decis ion of twelve good jurors when you pardoned the man? You had no op- ponent at that time Kayanaugh was not in the race for governor.
 What about the pardon for Sam Derrick, of Monroe county? NJ, L. Sheffield of Keevil township, Mon roe county, in withdrawing from the race for Representative in which your former campaign manager, R. F. Mill wee, is also candidate. charges that you have promised to pardon or did pardon Derrick provided Milwee was sent to the Legislature from that county
 Is the governors office public office or private snap? Why don't you deny the charge of Mir. Sheffield? He evi- 1ently has the goods on you.
 White marble is being used in the l work at the new state capitol. We have wondered since your friend prepared the Ellis clas- sic" whether your heart is from the same quarry. You pretend to be sympathetic and kind. The world | loves good man, but the world hates a man with a marble heart.
