SOMETHING ROTTEN IN DEN.
MARK

Senator Hite Huffaker, o. Louisville,
has introduced in the General Assembly
a bill hat will completely revolutionize,
if it becomes a law, the system of paying
the teachers in the common schools of
the State. and its author claims that be-
sides affording the teachers their CON-
pensation promptly it will save the State
over half million dollars a year. The
bill requires the payment to the teach
ers of the common schools of their
monthly salaries by checks mailed d.
rect from the State treasurer's Office in
Frankfort in lieu of the lump sum of
their salaries sent to the county superin-
tendent, who is now the treasurer and
disburses the money at his pleasure.
10 speaking of the bill and the condi-
tions it seeks TO correct, Senator HUFF
faker said:
According to statistics, there are
about zoo, 1000 school children in Ken
lucky, to whom the State appropriates
81 per capita, or approximately s. $780,
600. Tn same statistics show the school
fund of Kentucky which is annually
expended amounts to over So, $40, 900,
and no one is able to give any satisfac-
tory explanation as TO what becomes of
the sum of 500, 600, which is the dif-
ference between the per capita allow
ance according to the school census and
the amount actually expended"
The above is taken from the Louis
vile Times of Feb IL. 1t is the last
paragraph of which we now speak IL
is difficult for us to believe that such a
state of affairs exists. yet we are equal
ly 10th to believe that Senator Huffaker
would make the statement, unless in
possession of the facts to warrant it. Is
il true or is it joke, wild statement
by the Senator, made in his enthusiasm
10 push his bill through, or is it a big
newspaper story? We have asked our
selves the question dozen times Is
the Senator xtaiement true? IL it is
true. there certainly is something rot.

FEBRUARY Is, 1914
UNITED WE STAND.

Let's make il unanimous. It's almost
that way any how. Since the question
of cutting down of the appropriation
TO Eastern Normal ana the selling of
the farm and disseminating teaching OF
agriculture has been brought TO the at
TENT of the people of Kentucky, we
have kept a close watch on our ex-
changes, especially those of Eastern
Kentucky. This is the section from
which Eastern Normal draws the
larger part of her patronage, the sec
tion; too, that sees and knows by expe-
rience what Eastern Normal is doing
and is. therefore, the section most largely
interested in any proposed legislation
affecting the school. These statements
beng true, Eastern Kentucky is in better
position TO judge what legislation. if any,
should he had.
We have. therefore, carefully noted
the opinions expressed by our exchanges
in Eastern kentucky. Entertaining the
opinion that we do and have so often
expressed in the columns Of The Gil
MAX, il has been gratifying but not in
the least surprising to US 10 note the
Hraaimhy Of spiHiO15 of our brother edi-
tors. Many of them have expressed in
no uncertain language their disapproval,
founded upon their cool. thoughtful and
deliberate judgment, of reducing the
appropriation or of selling the farm.
This. we think, is worthy OF the atten-
ton OF our lawmakers.
So we say TO Senator Hall and his COM
mittee and to every member of the
House and Senate, let's make it unani-
nous that no legislation that might
cripple Eastern Normal be had at
this session of Kentuckys General As
sembly.

 SOMERS TAX SYSTEM

Assessor James T. Bone and Depu- ty Assessor Tom. Shaughnessy spent yesterday in Chandler where they went relative to the installation of the SOmers system of taxation in that district. They returned to their hcmes late last evening" after a most enjoyable and profitable day.
 At Chandler the assessors were met by a delegation of citizens. They were shown about the city. and ban oueted by the Chandler property owners, and :, were helped in their work all through the day by the sev- eral of the number who met them.
 Property conditions in the Chand- Ter district are good. In most in stances it was {ound that the present valuations are nearly correct. There will be some changes, however, more especially in some 9&ssshe ranch land which has been highTW improved and enriched The other changes will be necessitated in those instances where land has been excluded from under the Roosevelt ditches and where land las decreased in value owing to oth- CT outside influences.

Invita- tions that are almost orders. have gone out to the members of the company, directing their attendance

 The campaign for membership is progressing satisfactorily. The effort being expended, is not simply to fill the roster of the company. but to in cidentally raise the standard of the membership so far as possible There have been several recent additions and there are going to be more. The smoker and banquet will be attended by old members, new members, those who want to be members and those who ought to be members.

THERE ARE SEVERAL
 SLIPS IN THIS STORY
But the Man Slipped Away and Jeff
 Adams Stayed Home

A slip in memory, and a timely thought, saved Sheriff Jeff Adams a trip to Globe for nothing yesterday. He had already started, and was one mile out of the city, when he thought of a little book he should have taken with him. When he arrived at the office, coming back for the book, he found Johny ConnOrs talking with Deputy Sheriff SWerington of Gila county who was communicating to the local office that the bird they wanted, was on the wing, Whither bound, he did not know.
 Monday evening late, Joseph Kreiss came to the sheriffs office with a warrant for the arrest of one A. R. Harrington from whom he had bought a ranch but a short time previously. Harrington, who was a horse doctor, Kreiss declared had sold him a ranch he did not own. Accordingly, the of ficers began a search for the wanted man.
 He was located about midnight at Miami, and Deputy SWerington was immediately gotten on the phone. He stated at once he could locate the man. and twenty minutes later. notified the local office he had him. Accordingly preparations for the trip were made, and the start was gotten early yester- day morning.
 However, when the officers returned to the court house for their book, they found that their man had given the Miami officer the slip, and was on his way to other parts of the country. As the result, officers all over the state have been notified to look for the wanted man.
