TOOK THEIR MEDICINE LIKE LITTLE MEN.
Monroe News-Star.)


So after all, the recognized
Board of Directors of the State Nor
NAL School, despite the protestations
heretofore made, bowed to the will
of the Governor, and on Saturday,
without even so much as raising a
verbal protest, elected President Roy
for another term. However, Mr..
John P. Parker, ST., and DR.. Cock
erham, the Two members who re-
signed one week ago, were not pres
ent and therefore took no part in
the meeting, thus reiterating their
determination not to be caught by
the alleged steam roller methods
ascribed to the Governor in this
particular case,
Naturally enough, the News-Star
has no objections whatever to Presi-
dent Roy, and, were we consider
ing our personal preferences, we
might even applaud his reelection
at this time. The Goo Coos and
their spoilers shouted from every
stump in the State the declaration
that the schools should be kept out
Of politics. We heartily join in that
sound and wholesome doctrine, and
hope that the public schools of this
State will soon be removed from the
domain of politics and the vasilat-
ing, vicious, dominating influence
of the politician. We have made
a splendid start toward this desir-
able end, and we had hoped that
the Governor would exert himself
in bringing to a speedy termination
the harmful influence of the poll
ticians over the schools.
From what has been printed in
the newspapers-eminating from
Natchitoches-and never denied, at
least one of the recently appointed
members of the Board of Directors
of the State Normal aoas not COM
missioned until it was definitely
known that he Mould vote to elect
Prof. Caldwell as president of the
Normal. Yet, after it was almost
definitely settled that Mr.. Caldwell
was to be elected, the Governor sent
a communication to the Board, and
almost instantly the situation is
changed. Political expediency"
was assigned by at least one men,
Der as the reason for this sudden
change of heart. Mr.. Parker and
DIR. Cockerham refused to be dictat-
ed to and promptly resigned, and
the meeting as promptly adjourned
for one week. The week was up
and a second meeting was
held, with the Governor present,
and President Roy was promptly
reelected. So ends the third chap
ter in the non-interference policy of
the State administration.

OF this amount the State proposes
to take as objects of State revenue
property assessed at 1926, 085 90.
Thus we lose the 10 mill parish tax
on that amount, which amounts
to S1260.S5. Deducting the State
sources of revenue from the total
assessment leaves s2,02S, 115 of as
sessment on which the parish is to
raise its revenue; now as the State
gives to the parish the right to i'm
pose an additional six mill tax to
take the place of the State tax,
why it is plain to see that six mills
on the assessment left to the parish
amounts to $12, 1850 and deduct
ing from this the amount lost by
reason of the withdrawal of sources
of revenue by the State, would leave
the parish a net gamer of &c.
9O7 "a per annum.
We wish to call special attention
to the fact that the property tax
payers will not pay as much taxes
under the new plan as under the
old, although the parish will get a
much larger revenue. Under the
present system the rate of taxation
in 1913 will be as follows: 10 mill
parish, 5 mill State, 1 mill Confed-
crate Veteran and two-tenths of a
mill for good roads, making a total
tax of sixteen and two-tenths mills,
while under the new system the
total taxes would be Is mills, and
this could be greatly reduced if the
people do not want the extra reve-
nue. to spend on good roads.
There is every reason in the world
why the people of Tensas should
support this proposed amendment,
and we can see no good reason why
they should oppose it. Under the
present plan, the Parish Of Tensas
pays according to the assessment of
1911, tor the maintenance of the
State, for Confederate Veteran Pen
sions and for the State Good Road
fund, s11, 1889, while under the
new scheme this parish will pay,
based on the same assessment, So
152. IL for the same purposes. In
other words, based on the assess
ment of 1911. the Parish of Tensas
will contribute sS,591.77 less per
annum for the support of the State
Government under the new plan,
than under the old, although the
State revenue will be much greater
under the new than under the old.
One will naturally ask how does
the State get much larger revenue,
if the parishes all pay less taxes for
the support of the State; the answer
is neeC sources of revenue and a slight
increase IN the rate of taxation on
the old sources.
In our neTt issue we will take up
and discuss this last proposition.

Waua Walla. Wash, Sept. S.-The

over. the horseshoe has been dug up
from beneath the pitchers box and
Waua Wana is an easy winner OF the

Nalla ana La Grande tied 2-2 in ten
inning game yesterday morning and

The morning game IN Walla Walla
was fair exhibition but the alter
noon contest developed into a farce
with the pitchers getting hit hard,
Two fast double plays, both made in
the same manner added interest.
The morning game in Walla Walla
played in a rain, the afternoon con-
test with rain threatening but never
putting in an appearance. Small
crowds witnessed both the games.
In the morning game Walla Walla
scored first in the second inning. Da-
Wis walked and scored on Jones two
bagger. Martini went out advancing
Jones who scored on passed ball.
No runs were made till the eighth
when Mcbride who reached first on
a hit. advanced to third on outs by
his teammates and scored on Ford's
single.
In the ninth, King who singled and
was sacrificed to second by Jamison
scored on Naughton's two bagger.
Another inning was played and
then the game was called to let the
players eat and get ready for the af-
ternoen contest. Score, morning game;

ceiyed high honor as a delegate to the
national convention Of weights and meas
ures men IN Washington. BEING the only
colored delegate IN attendance he easily
has attracted the most attention. The
Washington Herald says Of him,

when new office was created by the
unanimous vote of the delegates In order

ference created the office Of serseant-at-
arms and then, by rising, unanimous
vote, elected Delegate Pegg, city sealer OF
weights and measures of Omaha, 10 the
new-made position.
An clement OF faeetlousness preceded
the unique action, but the creation OF
the office and the election OF Pegg was
enacted with all the dignity winch usu'
ally accompanies such procedure.
After the election Pegg made clever
speech OF appreciation. lie was cheered
and congratulated by the delegates, among
whom he has won favor since his re-
markahle record OF six years service a.
