VERA Cruz ONCE
MORE BECOMES
ORDERLY
GENERAL FUNSTON RE-oPENs
SCHOOLS AND KEEPS THE
CITY ORDERLY

Vera Cruz, May 11---Four schools
opened here today with native in
strlctors and the same machinery as
before the occupation by the Ameri-
can troops. If the experiment is sue
cessful General Funston plans to re-
establish the entire school system of
the city. This plan is in line with
his policy to gradually restore all
local institutions under Mexican law.
The recent trouble by Americans
venturing into the Mexican city has
resulted in Tightening all outpost
lines Natives awoke to the realiza-
ton today that American occupation
had added new holiday to the long
list prevailing in Mexico. Many Amer
leans appeared yesterday wearing
white boutonieres and today natives
learned that they had been observing
Mothers day" under edict by Gen
eral Funston. following President Will
sons proclamation.
Vera Cruz is free bf gambling, prob
ably for the first hme in centuries
This extensive vice which was par
ticnlarly disastrops the poorer
classes, was wiped out by General
Funston's order which became opera
tive today. General Funston is close
ly watching other plague spots in the
city's life, long regarded as institu-
tions, with the intention of stopping
them Even the old Spanish Sunday
custom of bull fighting may be for
hidden.
Business is booming with the eX-
ception of disturbances in the inter
ior. General Funston is encouraging
all transportation to the interior, but
merchants inland so far have not
availed themselves of the opportunity
Offered.
Bluejackets from the American bat
tleships are enjoying more shore leave
privileges and the officers fraterniz-
ing in the cafes and plazas make a
colorful scene. Navy men are allow
ed ashore only in spotless white uni
forms, and the sanitary pier where
landing parties arrive has holiday
appearance.
Dozens of booths have sprung up
along the pier where natives are sell
ing soft drinks to the men who few
weeks ago swept through the city
lunder fire.
Under Red Cross officials Vera
Cruz is celebrating continuous mu-
nicipal cleanup day. Every street,
alley and vacant lot is being cleared
of cans and rubbish and hundreds of
native laborers are busy washing
down streets and carting away refuse.
Restoration of the electric street
lamps shot away during the fighting
Is about completed.
/ Rumors OF all sorts Of great rebel
lattack on Tampico are in circulation,
but naval officials are withholding all
Information received by them. The
ldepartureof the British cruiser Essex
land the liner Mexico for Tampico
yesterday gave new impetus to re
ports that the rebels are preparing to
deliver a final coup, probably with
Iartillery said to have been brought up
from Monterey.
If Tampico falls the attitude OF the
lrebels toward Americans at this point
is awaited with interest

District Judge Edgar C. Steele
has rendered an oral opinion in the
case of the First National bank YER
sus T. E. Martinson, assessor, the
plaintiff alleging double assessment
on real estate, Judge Steele holding
that contention of the plaintiff was
correct and ordering the assessment
against the bank reduced from
$109, 900 to $4,000
The assessor had in addition to
making the assessment on the capt.
al stock of the bank, also assessed a
piece of real estate property of the
bank at 900. The bank contend
ed that the real property was in
cluded in the capital stock of the
bank. The state admitted all the
facts but held that the board Of ,,eq-
ualization was the place to have
the assessment lowered.
1t is understood that an appeal
may be taken to the supreme court
in the case in order to set at rest
the right Of inclusion Of the real
estate as part Of the capital stock of
the bank.

when a man emerged from tn

when man emerged from the
dark ages, he has accomplished
wonders. Fire was his obedient
servant, stone has furnished him a
weapon, iron had come to his aid
from the ground. But he has two
companions who were of great SER
vice to him-the horse and the dog.
The latter guarded him from sur
prise and attack at night. The horse
carried him swiftly over the coun-
try. Later when he had learned
some of the advantages of husbandry
his willing partner, the horse, help
ed him with his work. When one
stops to think of the debt that man
owes to his faithful friend, he wond-
ers that there should ever be dis
covered case of cruelty to him,
of his being beaten, let to go un-
watered and unfed."

The trainers of the political plat


form met in Boise some time ago
and in their wisdom presented to
the people series of platitudes up
on which the candidates of the var
ious political parties could come be-
fore the people to solicit votes. In
these there was nothing strange and
startling save in one instance-The
Progressive and Democratic parties
both promise to abolish the office
OF State Superintendent of Public
instruction and also that of State
Commissioner of Education.
The man who can make two blades
OF grass grow where one grew be-
fore is benefactor. Working on
the same principle our last lament
ed Legislature erected two officers
to do the work that before was a
sinecure for one. A Commissioner
of Education is probably an i'm
provement on the so-called State
Superintendent. He couldn't be
worse, for the office of superintend-
ent of Idaho has been in times past
VIGOROUSLY weak. We admit. that
it was necessary for the Legislature
to do something, SO they parallel
the office of State Superintendent
of Public instruction and pay two
comfortable salaries where one was
paid before and two now do the
work that did not keep one busy.
With the exercise of all this state
craft the critical public does not re-
gard the Legislature in the light
of public benefactor.
The present arrangement is pro-
badly not satisfactory or why would
these wise trainers of political plat
forms agree to abolish both offices?
What would they give US in place?
Who would do the work that both
offices are doing now? The COL
umns of the Gazette are open for an
explanation.
