When our correspondent at

report OF the death of Mrs. j.
Lee we added that she died at
the home OF MIR. and Mrs. Will
Coad, rs we had an article sent
in on the same mail saying that
Mrs. Lee was very III there. IL
since has developed that there
were two Mrs. Lee at Grand Pass
and that II was the other one
who died. OF course Il was u
fault, but such n mistake Is easily
made under such unusual circum-
stances and we reprint the death
notice as originally sent In, which

New School Law

This Law takes effect September
1, 1911. II apportions $4,000 for
each teacher employed. Provided,
that in any district in which the
average daily attendance is less
than Is pupils only $500 is ap-
portioned and for every teacher
whose salary Is 100000 or more
per year $4,000 is apportioned.
This takes about n half OF the
state school fund. The remainder
of the fund Is apportioned on the
total number of days attendance.
The amount for this year would
have been about SOIL for each
days attendance. In general, a
district can determine approx
imately what 1t will get under this
law by counting $4,000 for each
teacher employed and SOIL for
each days attendance by all pu-
pills of the district. Some things
that this New Law will accom-
plish:
1. 1t will encourage longer terms
Of country and village schools.
Q. II will increase the attendance
in all schools.
8. 1t will encourage the employ
ment OF the proper number OF
teachers.
4. II will reward local effort.
5. II will meet local needs.
G. II will remove the gross in
Qualities that exist under the pres
ent law.
IL I will prevent fraud by bas-
,rg the apportionment of funds on
a, ;ua school records.
8 1t will extend school interest
over the entire year instead OF Over
one day.
Q II will be fair to all communi-
ties, for Il distributes the schooI
funds "for the benefit OF the pub
lie schools as provided by tho
constitution, and according to thu
amount OF service rendered tho
state.
10 II will encourage the enforce
ment OF the Compulsory Schoo
Law.
II II will stimulate teachers &c
do better work.

Good Railroad News

St. Louis,-"As soon as We show
that the property warrants the
expenditure, the Missouri Pacific
system will have all the money II
needs to rehabilitate II and put
It in the front rank of Western
railroads. says b. f. Bush, new
president OF Missouri Pacific and
Iron Mountain, in the first inter-
view given out since he assumed
control of the big Gould system
Of roads.
Mr.. Bush's statement shows that
the old "do nothing" days of Mis-
souri, Pacific are over; that the
big system has joined the ranks
Of the progressive; that the rail-
road which stood still while Union
Pacific, Rock Island, Sante Fe and
other western lines We're being re-
built is now, in turn, to have mil
lions OF dollars poured into its
roadbed, its rolling stock and, in
in fact, into all its departments.
Mr.. Bush, the new president, ia
the moving spirit in the upbuild-
ing of the line and itr was be-
cause of his progressiveness that
he was chosen to head the road
and lead in the work.
Along with the old outgrowr
physical equipment, the old out
grown traditions OF the system
are to go into the discard. The
"public be damned" policy Is to be
reversed and everything possible
is to be done to cultivate a gooG
feeling between the road and it,
patrons. Mr.. Bush says:
"The relations existing between
a railroad and the people SHOULD
be most kindly. The prosperity Of
the railroads depends absolutely
on the people and the prosperity
of the people depends largely up.
on the railroads. This kindly
feeling can only be brought about
by fair treatment on each side. II

There is a great deal said now
about the high cost of living In
the cities and a demand for an in
crease in wages and salaries, and
cheapening Of food products. But
what about the farmer who must
pay twice as much for the land
he tills as he did a few years
ago, pay more for help, greater
damage by insects and diseascs9
Can he live on the starvation
prices he received twenty years
ago? We hardly think 30. il

receive fair treatment from the
people. A few of the railroads have
adopted a policy OF this kind and
already some OF the feeling against
the big transportation system Ia
dying. II is not so bitter as II
was three years ago.
"The public should have some
thing to say regarding the laws
under which the railroads operate.
After all, the railroads are Great
ed by the public and the public
should control their creatures.
When the Interstate Commerce
commission was first created and
announced certain rules under
which railroads should operate,
there was a general cutlery from
railroad officials. To a man, they
opposed the idea OF any public
commission interfering" in their
private business. We now know
that a railroad IL a public, not a
private business. And some OF us
have concluded that the public
has a right TO control railroads
and other corporations. I see,
from newspapers, that James ].
Hil, the Great Northern magnate,
recently came out for public con-
troll: President Nudge OF Rock
Island did likewise; President Vail
Of American Telephone and Tele-
graph took the very strongest OF
stands along that line in his re-
cent annual report to his board
Of directors in which he demand
ed complete acquiescence in the
control OF public commissions. All
those things go towards making
good feeling between the railroads
and the people.
II believe in keeping the public
informed OF those matters which
concern the public; in fact, the
idea OF publicity OF corporation
affairs will hereafter find an adj
vocate in Missouri Pacific.
ain the matter OF expenditures,
Missouri Pacific is going to get it's
moneys worth. There will be no
waste, no matter how many mil
lions OF dollars we spend in re-
building the road. Every cent will
be watched, not for the purpose
OF seeing how little we al spend,
but with the idea OF getting full
value for our money"
Mr.. Bush has Just finished his
first official inspection of the prop
erty OF which he has charge and
his plans for the physical rehibil-
itation OF the road are only in the
making. When completed and
carried out Missouri Pacific will
rank as the equal OF any road west
OF the Mississippi river.

During the last few years the

been doubled in quantity and has
been a source of ever increasing
