COMPARES COST RUNNING STATE AND
PRIVATE SCHOOLS.

The governor has sent out a
letter to the educational instltu-
tions, public and private, asking
for an account of the expenses,
the number of students, pay or
beneficiary, and how much money
does it take to run them. We
presume his purpose being to re-
port to the legislature the condi-
ton he finds in institutions which
are not being financed by the
taxpayers but which are con-
Quoted solely with private funds.
It is our opinion the governor
will show that the State institu-
tions are being extravagantly
managed, that equally as good SER
vice can be obtained by exercis-
ing the same business Judgment
as is being done in the colleges
financed out of private funds.
Governor Blease, when a Sena.
tor, called attention to the man
agement Of these higher institu-
tions of learning, and claimed
then they were run extravaganza
ly; the appropriations for them
has not lessened since then, but
on the other hand they have in
creased. The trustees not always
confning themselves to the ap-
preparation, but would go ahead
and spend what they thought
best and then go before the legls.
lature with a deficit, have same
provided for. and then ask for
an increased appropriation. It
lis just these things the eye of
the governor is on; if he can sug-
gest some way by which the
efficiency of the colleges will not
be hurt, and suggest a way
to reduce the vast amounts
provided for them every year,
he will be doing the taxpayers
and the colleges great service.
We do not wish to be understood
as being in favor of niggardness,
we would not have any educa-
tional institution in this State
crippled, but if the waste can be
removed, if there is any, and the
schools brought upon 9 business
plane then it should be done,
the inquiry being made by the
governor may help to solve the
problem.

THE MILLS coMBINIEG-CHEAPER
COTTON.

There seems to be disposition
among the cotton mill magnates
to merge the milling interests,
and place them in a combination.
Just what this means to the
growers of the raw material con-
sumed by these mills we cannot
say. but whenever there is a
combination formed it usually
has the effect of reducing ex-
penses, and cheapening the pro-
duct they buy. The cotton mills
of North and South Carolina
combined into a Duke syndicate,
the same Duke who heads the
American Tobacco Company,
does not strike US as boding well
for the cotton growing interests.
Then we have no doubt these
mergers have close connections
with the mills in Massachusetts,
and Europe; if this is so what is
to hinder them from stipulating
the price to be paid for the raw
product? We have watched the
reports Of the mill mergers ever
since the first one started, which
was reported to have a S., 900, 900
capital, now there is another
merger in contemplation with a
$40, 100000 capital and practi-
cally the same persons are inter.
ested. A merger and a trust may
not be the same in law, but in eff.
feet we believe they are six of
one and a half dozen of the other.
It is a combination of capital for
the purpose Of exercising a bet
ter control, and for the purpose
of increasing the dividends for
the stockholders.

MARIoN's LOSS

In the death of Hon william T.
Smith Marion county and the State
lose valuable legislator and citizen.
He was man of strong convictions
and determined character and when
he took a stand he could not be mis-
led bulldozed or bribed He had to
be satisfied with substantial facts and
sound deductions. During the several
years in which he represented Marion
county in the Ohio Legislature he
forged to the front as one Of the ablest
and safest members of that body. He
was always in his seat and never
lodged an issue. He would rather be
mistaken in opinion than vascillating.
His work on the ten-mill tax measure
was almost herculean and he became.
probably, the best informed man in
the state on the subject of taxes and
related topics. This was demonstrated
recently when he spoke before the
Marion Problem Club as he was
found to be ready to analyze the most
complex questions pertaining to that
matter Not having a very rugged
physical constitution. Mr. Smith no
doubt undermined his health in his
unremitting attendance on his public
duties and in managing, at the same
time. his private affairs. He essayed
to do more than he should. Had he
lived and had good health he would
have beer kept I'm the public service
because of his strong personality. his
clarity Of thought and his unblemsh-
ed personal character. II is hard to
give up such a man because he had
just become educated to render his
people splendid public service and he
would have honored almost any posi-
ton. Hon. w. T. Smith had most Of
the qualities of a model public ser
want He would do as much for cor
porations as they were entitled TO-,
and no more, and hence was safe
lawgiver and statesman. It will re-
quire a very strong man to iii his
place.
