OUR SCHOOLS.

One, in travelling through the coun-
ty OF LaurcnS, notices a general ad-
vance in Improvement of educational
conditions. In many districts where
formerly two or three schools ckcd
out q miserable existence for three or
four months each he finds one central
school cXcclcntly developed and lib
orally maintained. One is forced to
admit however that in other districts
no advancement is noticed and in one
or two instances possibly rctrogrcSsion
is sad fact. In the districts where
there has been noticeable Improvement
will be found local leaders who have
pride in their communities and who
are making those communities models
worthy OF copy by their ncighbors who
arc lacking in such leadership. The
non progressive districts arc still sat
iSlicd TO house their schools taught by
one teacher in comfortlcSS, unattrac-
tive buildings, i'll adapted for school
purposes, and untitled for human hab-
itation. Such conditions should not
exist The trustees Of such districts
should foster amongst their people a
spirit Of emulation which will inspire
them to strive to make their COM
munities the quail Of any in the coun-
| ty. One Of the first questions asked by
a prospective investor in any locality
is What are the school facilities of
your community" If an unfavorable
answer be given he seeks other fields.
| No Back to the Farm" movement can
be advocated with such conditions in
prospect, No Stay at Home" policy
can give strength with our youth rear
cd in such a community. AS a conse-
quence the unprogressive district must
either become one Of abandoned or ten
antcd farms, while the progressive one
will be the home OF a satisfied citizen

TO PAY $25,OOO,OOO
FOR THE CANAL ZONE
Colombia Does Not Grant Right For
New Canal. No COnling Privileges.

Colombia Does Not Grant Right For
New Canal. No Conling Privileges.
Washington, April S.-Undisguised
qualification was felt by administra-
ton officials here today at the pros
pcct Of finally healing the breach be-
tween the United States and Colombia
through the treaty signed at Bogota
yesterday If this convention is rati-
lied by the two countries, as officials
are confident it will be, it will close
amicablc bitter controversy, brought
on the secession Of Panama in 1903
and the granting to the United States
the Canal Zone and which the Wash
ington government has felt handicap
ped 1t in it's relations with all Latin
America.
Substantial details of the treaty be-
came known here today
The principal article provides for the
payment to Colombia of $25, 100000 six
months after ratifications have been
exchanged between the two countries,
as indemnity for the losses she has
sustained. This is granted in a lump
sum and the treaty does not attempt
to specify how much Of this amount
is in rcparation for the loss of Pan
anna or how much for the loss OF the
Panama Railway rights
Shipping Rights.
Colombia is granted the right to ship
coal, salt and petroleum from her At
!antic to her Pacific ports, either
through the canal or across the Pan
anna Railway, without any charge
other than the cost Of freight, no duty
being assessed These articles are not
produced along the Pacific side Of the
country and mountains prevent easy
communication overland through Co
lombia
n third article fixes the boundary
line between Colombia and Panama
ard stores to the latter strip Of
territory which has been claimed by
Panama. This line is the same as
that which was provided in the Cortcs
ArOScma treaty between Colombia and
Panama, one Of the tri-partc treaties
never ratified by Colombia, except that
it fixes definitely the point on the Pa
citic coast where the boundary ter
inmates, which is to be midway be-
tween Points Cocalita and Ardita The
former treaty left this point to be set
tied ury tribunal of arbitration to
be appointed. \ treaty, however, be-
tween Colombia and Panama will be
necessary before this boundary set
tlcmcnt is final. Tho United States
agrees to use its good Offices with Pan
ana in the matter.
Another article expresses the hope
that fricEuly relations between the
United States and Colombia may cHA-
tinuc from this time forward
COlOmbia'S Demands.
Colombia has insisted that the Unit
cd states either pay a lump sum for
the Canal Zone it acquired when the
Republic OF Panama was set up over
night With guarantees of integrity
from Washington or that the whole
question be submitted to The Hague
for arbitration.
