The state railroad commission have
handed down an important opinion
in which it is held that the Michigan
Central, Pere Marquette, Detroit, To-
ledo & lronton. Detroit q Toledo
Shore Line and Wabash railroads do
not have TO absorb switching charges
made by the Delray Connecting Rail-
road Co, privately owned road which
is said to be at least under control
of the Solvay and Semet Process com
panies of Detroit.
This is an important ruling, in that
il will save the aforementioned rail
roads approximately $4,000 annually
that they are now required to pay
the Delray Connecting railroad for
switching charges. In its opinion the
railroad commission holds that the
Delray railroad is plant facility used
for the most part in connection With
the two large concerns, and that it
does little business for other con-
Germs, and that it does little business
for other concerns.
Similar cases were started against
the Port Huron Southern railroad by
the Pere Marquette and Grand Trunk
and the Ludington Northern by the
Pere Marquette. The commission,
however. held that the switching rates
charged by the Ludington Northern
and the Port Huron Southern, both
switching roads, should be absorbed
by the railroads making delivery to
these roads. as they serve plans who
are not equipped with the trackage
that the Delray concerns possess.

LETTER FROM THE
STATE CAPITOL

SIMILAR INSTITUTIONS IN
THE UNITED STATES.

Attorney General Gives Opinion On
Important Point In Law Govern
Ing Eligibility of County
School Commissioners.
[By ourd M. Hayes.l

Lansing-The Michigan Agricultural
college, through it's graduates and
the work which it is doing, has been
discovered to be the biggest single
influence in the United States upon
the development of agricultural
science. This, is least, is the conclu-
sion which has been reached as re-
suit of a nationwide study of these
influences conducted recently by Prof
r. W. Thatcher OF the State College
Of Washington. Professor Thatcher
found that there are twice as many
graduates of the Michigan Agricul-
tural college who are leaders in agri-
cultural work as from any other insti-
tuition in the United States.
Professor Thatcher. in writing to
President Jonathan l.. Snyder, OF M.
A. c.. on the results OF his investi-
CATION said:
Education in the field of agricul-
tural science is coming to occupy so
large a place in primary, secondary
and collegiate instruction, that the de-
velopment of this field is of almost
universal interest among educational
workers. Both the subject matter
and the pedagogical methods of agri-
cultural science are so new as to be
practically the creation of the pres
ent generation of research students
and educators.
1T was of interest to me therefore.
to ascertain, as fairly as circum-
stances would permit. the sources for
the inspiration and conception of the
men who are building up this new
science.
1T occurred TO me to ascertain at
what institutions of learning the men
who were shaping the thought in this
field secured their scholastic training,
both Undergraduate aud postgraduate.
Each of the leading educational insti-
tons of the world is generally
recognized as standing for a certain
type of instruction or conception of
educational methods. 1t seemed to be
of interest to determine to what pro-
portionate extent the ideals Of each
such institution are influencing the
development of agricultural science.
For this purpose, a study was made
of the number Of degrees Exclusive of
honorary degrees) granted by each
institution to persons who are, or
have been during the past five years,
members of the Society for the Pro
motion of Agricultural Science. This
society does not, of course, include
every person who is actively engaged
in this work But it's membership does
include very large proportion of the
leaders of this movement in America,
and is probably closely representative
of the scholastic training which such
leadership has received.
The following table indicates the
schools from which members of the
Society for the Promotion of Agricul-
tural Science received their degrees:

BURIED WITH TRUSTY PISTOLS
Thought He Might Need Them to
Fight the Devil and
His Aides.

Tahlequah, Okla.-In a grave out in
the wooded hills of the old Goingsnake
district Of the Cherokee nation. now
a portion of Adair county, a pair Of
heavy 45-caliber Colts revolvers have
rusted for nearly quarter of cen
fury. The pistols were the property
of Thomas Tail, one of the unique
characters of the nation. and were
buried with him at his special re-
quest when he realized that the hand
of death was upon him.
Tails reason for making the request
Is said to have been that he thought
ne might need the weapons with which
to fight the devil.
Tail was a fullblood Cherokee, a
very large and corpulent man, who
weighed 800 pounds. For several
years he was sheriff of the SONG.

man who was handy with his fire.

He was In a number OF shooting
scrapes and always came off victor.
though at times he had narrow es-
capes. Upon one occasion. while rid
ing along a roadway near the Wauhil-
lau post office in the wooded regions
west OF the Barren Fork river, horse
man suddenly dashed past him and
fired his revolver point blank at Tails
head The bullet struck Tail square
ly between the eyes, but In DETECTED
manner. Tail fell to the ground as II
dead, but instantly recovered sufl-
cient consciousness TO raise himself
to a sitting posture. Through the
blood that streamed down his face. he
beheld his wouldbe assassin pursuing
his rapid way down the road
Exerting all his strength, he gained
the side of his horse. drew his Win
chester rifle to his boulder and fired.
The bullet entered the horseman's
head, killing him instantly. Tail was
taken to a house, his wound dressed
and after a few days he was as well
as usual.
The courts of the Cherokee nation
acquitted him.
On his deathbed he babe those in
attendance to place in the grave with
him the trusty revolvers which had
been his constant companions for
years.

officials of the industrial accident
insurance companies are of the opin-
ion that the workinemen's compensa-
tion act will receive some amendments
when the legislature meets next win
ter. among which probably will be one
extending the time during which an
injured person shall be entitled to
medical attention at the expense of
the employer. AS the law stands,
the employer must give an injured
workman medical care three weeks
following the accident. This policy
has not been rigidly adhered to. say
the insurance men, and there are
many cases on record where employ
ers have paid doctor bills and hospi-
tai fees for a much longer period
A case in point is that OF William
Wetzel, 16, who sustained serious
and probably fatal injury to his back
in fall June T. while working on
the site of the new building for the
Wayne County & Home Savings bank.
Since the day of the accident. the
youth has been in Harper hospital, his
legs paralyzed by the injury to his
spinal cord. For three months a week
and three days, the expense of the
boy at the hospital have been paid by

were not legally under obligation to
do so for more than three weeks.
None of the hospital expense money
is to be deducted from the amount to
be awarded the boy under the work.

1T is believed that the figures given
above approximately represent the in
fuence of the several institutions up
on the general trend of thought in ag-
ricultural science
while the statistics as to the schol-
astic attainments of workers in other
educational fields are not available
for comparison. it appears to me that
the scholastic training and ability of
the men who are actively engaged in
the promotion OF agricultural science
is certainly such as to command very
high respect"
