RELIEVE THE SITUATION.

'Take the schools out of politics!' is
the demand of parents and friends of edu-
cation. For the past six years the system
has been frankly political.
There is one way to settle the question,
and that is for the next Legislature to pass
an act repeating the Aswell- Marks bill,
and all other autocratic legislation, and
relieve the situation by taking firm hand
for the schools by enacting a common
sense law empowering its people to control
their schools. This would take the schools
out of politics and institute nonpolitical
system on permanent basis and would
be constructive legislation of the highest
order. All Democrats, who are Democrats
at heart and not in name only, ought to
vie with each other in supporting such
measure and sharing in the credit for a
real achievement.
This school reform is right in the line of
the high political ideals of the Good Gov
eminent League, and splendid and
benificent work, strongly appealing to the
conscience and intellect of all broad, earn
est and patriotic men, who should be de-
lighted at the chance to support measure
that will insure the maintenance OF the
excellent schools in some parishes and
provide for improvement in Others.
For six years past the Banner has, from
time to time, pointed out the necessity OF
rescung the schools from the control Of
scheming, office holding and office seeking
politicians, and to make the schools abso'
lutely free from the control of corrupt
politicians, whose only ambitions have
been to ''feather their own nests" and moi
to work in truth for the benefit of public
education.

Last Thursday three prisoners in the
Nebraska State Penitentiary, at Lancas-
ter, assassinated Warden James Della
hunty, Deputy Warden Charles Wagner,
Usher A C. Heilman, and wounded the
cell house keeper, making their escape.
The three convicts were serving sentences
for bank robbery and were by name
Morley, Taylor and Dowd. A binding
snow storm was raging at the time their
escape was made.

Superintendent Harris should not feel
too much elated over his triumph in de-
ceving the people. If the Democratic
voters of this State will appeal to the Leg
isature for relief we believe that body will
address him out of office. There is no
denying the right, and propriety under
the circumstances, of getting rid of an
objectionable official by this course of pro-
ceeding. Let it be done, if he persists in
holding on to his $1,000 job.

David A. Trousdale, young express
messenger on the Southern Pacific, last
Wednesday, thwarted the plans of bandits
who attempted to hold up the Sunset
Limited train in Terrell County, Texas, by
Draining one of them with mallet and
killing a second with the dead mans rifle.
Trcusdale has refused a $500 reward
offered him by the express company.
Citizens of Western Texas are planning a
$4,000 purse for him.

Instead of increasing the appropriations
for the school rings pet farce, the State
Institutes, the last Legislature should have
"cut it OUT and let the money go into the
common school fund, where it would have
done some good. Less money for colleges
and universities and educational frills for
the benefit of the ring, and more money
for the parish schools is our motto. This
State can get along very we'll without
politico- spectacular institutes, but it can
not do without "the little school house on
the hil'

"Moving pictures of the Inauguration of
Governor elect Hall will be shown in all
the leading cities of the world" is the
statement recently given out by large
motion picture concern. 1t would seem
from this that the recent State campaign
and the Good Government League victory
attracted much attention and we're of even
more than national Importance.

Opportunities for the Adventurous.

From the Memphis Commercial Appeal
We are inclined in this day Of explora-
ton to think that most Of the earth's sur
face has been traversed by human feet.
This is mistake which should be COR
rected. There are many unexplored fields
which hold out allurements to the adven-
turous who are anxious to travel and add
to the geographical researches of the
country.
In many of these wild and UNEMPLOYED
countries the foot Of men have left their
tracks, but not the foot Of civilized man.
There remains much yet for our explor-
ers to accomplish before the history Of the
world can be completed
In Africa there are the Sahara, Wadai
and the valley of the Sobat which have
never been penetrated, and now that Eng
land is organizing another party to venture
into the wilderness in search Of the lost
mines of King Solomon, other new coun-
tries may be found.
Wadai has been visited by only very
few people, and even Dr. Livingstone, in
the history Of his African travels, does not
even mention it, nor Henry Stanley, either.
The reason for this, assigned by the Scien
tific American, is that it is very difficult to
penetrate into the territory because of the
treacherous character of the natives. The
region between Lake Rudolph and Abys-
sinia and the valley of the Sobat are sec
tons of the map of the Dark Continent
without the usual earmarks of exploration.
In Asia there are numerous unexplored
districts in various directions which have
never yet been visited by civilized men.
There is still an unknown region more
than four hundred miles square that has
not yet been explored. There is also
much to be done in Asia Minor.
In Persia parts of Luristan and the
country of the Persian Kurd still remain
UNEMPLOYED. The great river Tsanpu is
practically unknown to writer's of geo.
graphical news.
The region embracing the complicated
mountain and river system between India
and China also affords excellent opportu-
mites for the adventurous explorer, for
practically nothing is known about it.
In the mass of islands lying south OF
Asia there is a great field for the explorer,
especially in New Guinea. Some of these
islands afford virgin ground. In North
America most of the work Of the explorer
has been accomplished, yet there are d.
visions of the Dominion of Canada that
; have not yet been visited, except by the
!. Indians.
South America, too, is practically an
unexplored country, and there is much
work before the venturesome spirit in
| Peru.

Confederate Pensions.

SOnTeoerdCe PENSIONS.
A Baton Rouge special to the New Or
leans Times Democrat, reads:
''The State Board for Confederate PEN
sions is in regular quarterly session. The
Board is composed of Chairman Allen of
st. Mary, Mr.. McGrath of East Baton
Rouge; Mr.. Billingsley of Desoto; State
Auditor Capdevielle and Adjutant- General
Stafford. AS usual, since the increase in
appropriation for the Confederate veterans,
the session is attended by many veterans
who are seeking to be placed on the rolls. :"
And this reminds US that the State has
SO hedged about its appropriation with
laws and regulations that it keeps many a
high strung and worthy but needy veteran
from asking for aid. OF course, the State
should guard against impostors, but to our
mind, it-has made the conditions too troub-
lesome and onerous. 1t even requires the
forfeit Of self-respect by imposing plea
of poverty. This should not be. The
pension should be given as mark of
honor, and should not be withheld from
any who earned it. All should be put on
the same footing in this respect, and then
the really needy would not be held back
by feeling of pride from asking for what
he deserves and is entitled to. The Leg
islature should revise and simplify the law
by imposing the one condition of honorable
service and honorable discharge.-Moae-

Situation Looks Better.

Washington, June 4.-Evidence of a betterment of conditions in Cuba is contained in the state department dis patches received today. From the Spanish American Iron Co, at Dali quiri. where the American gunboat Paducah is standing by for emergen- cies, came dispatch telling of sAe general improvement of conditions there. Many employees have returned to work and others are prparing to take up their duties on the mining properties. Some excitement is saai to exist at Santiago and Firmez, but the company's message declares little damage has been done.
 The Santiago chamber of commerce while voting down the proposition tc accept the assistance proffered by the United States as reported in the press, adopted a petition to Genera Monteagudo asking that arms be fur hiohen eV all l0haole iSSluehtss 6ht further voted for declaration oI martial law.
 Reyoutionists in Santa Clara prov ince are surrendering daily to tho authorities, according to reports oi the American consul at Sagua La Grande, to the state department.
 The war department received . message telling of the burning of the Santa Cecilia near Guantanamo, pui 1t Is said at the state department this undoubtedly refers to the burn ing of the same property reported more than week ago.

POSTPONE. BALLOTING
 ON LORIMER CONTEST
NEGOTIATIONS NOW IN PROG. REss TO PUT OFF CRUCIAL
 TEST UNTIL LATER DATE.

Washington, June 4-The vote of the senate on the resolution declaring the election of Senator Lorimer of Illinois invalid will not be taken until after the national convention, of ne gotiations now in progress between his supporters and opponents in the senate prove successful.
 The suggestion for the postpone ment was made to senators Lea and Kern today by Senator Dillingham;, chairman of the Lorimer committee. MT. Dillingham; did not indicate a pur- pose of pressing the suggestion, but he pointed out the necessity for a full at tendance, which it would be difficult to obtain before or during the great political meetings.
 The opposing senators acknowied ged the force of the point but did not indicate their decision. They are more concerned about a vote with the majority and agree to let the vote go over.
 Senator Kern expects to conclude his opposing speech tomorrow He will be followed by Senator Dilling- ham in support of Lorimer and he in turn by Senator Lea, in opposition

May Attack Mexico.

Mexico City, June 4.-Dispatehes to the Imparcial from Bachimba, the rebel front, stated that an emissary from Emiliano Zapata, commander of the rebels in the south, arrived there today and after laying a report of conditions in the south before Orozco, asked fof-, ,i authorization to attack the national capital. This was said to have been granted on condition that lives and property. particularly Of foreigners, be protected as far as pos sible.
 General Rabago. according to re- ports which have reached rebel head quarters. is moving north with the intention of attacking Chihuahua Campos has been sent out with reb- el force to meet him. An encounter is expected within four or five days
 Bands of Yaqui Indians were said to be marching to Chihuahua in an swer to a call from Orozco. Small bands of rebels were reported near Hermosillo, Sonora. There is only small federal garrison there Lo- cal volunteers are being drilled to de- fend the city in event of an attack
