seems TO be some opposition 10 re-
tanning r J. Tighe as superintendent
Of the public schools. and permit me
TO say that I regret 10 learn that such
is the case.
7 think It would be 2 very serious
mistake TO suffer our schools 70 lose
3Ir. Tighe. He, perhaps can easily
find as good. OF even better, position
elsewhere, but our city would suffer
a great loss In educational. civic and
social life in giving up man who has
demonstrated his wonderful ability
through long years OF active service.
and has always been so progressive In
all issues Of the day.
1Irs. Walters. president Of the Texas
Congress q Mothers. has said Of him.
He is one Of the finest superinteu-
dents in ne state" and If didn't
live in Fort Worth. I would say he
Is the finest"
He Is Conservative, but aggressive.
and possesses executive ability, q COM
bination which does not always run
together, and personally. I do hope
that our schools may have the good
fortune 10 secure his services for the
coming school year.

State S Rights Again

SOMETHING like the old doctrine Of states rights IS be-
- ing raised issue in the fight being made in
number Of states against increased telephone rates
For instance in South Dakota and Massachusetts, state
authorities combating the increases On the ground
that their authorization by postmaster general Buesou Is
interference with the police powers Of the states
The corporation commissions Mexico and Arizona
also maintain they have right act in the matter Of
inratate rates The Arizona commission has ordered the
new rates out Of effect while the New Mexico commission
has given notice Of intention oppose them in an effort
TO safeguard the people Of New Mexico against It re-
CARDS as extortion
Whether states have the night to intervene in cases such
as the present viii be determined very shortly it appears
by the supreme Of the United States the Msssa
s and South Dakota cases having been carried to that
tribunal
The action Of the Arizona corporation is the most drss
nc Undertaken IN any state, far reported The com
mission has declared the rates Suspended abrogated
and annued and has ordered telephone company officers
not to collect any money representing such increases
Inc new rate schedule shows very large increases In
Ike companies In private ownership Burlesou control and
the NATIONAL railroad administration not increase rates
1y cents OF fractions thereof but by half dollars and dol
Ars IN the case Of telephone rates OF by IS to so per
cent OF more IN the case Of railroad freight rates No
company IN private ownership would have dared trv TO
put over such increases would any state or national
Iate revising body have stood for it.
II may be that the are not so awfulIv unjust
1ooeIhg the greatly increased OF labor materials
everything else that enters into the business but the
ItOnc isn't convinced The people remain to be shown
aCuon OF the state commission is evidence Of public
sentiment back Of the state boards
The tendency IS naturally to blame lIr Burlesou He
neio responsible FOR all bad news coming out of the
postal telephone or telegraph services and in the pubIc
present. frame OF mind it is fortunate for Ny BrIso7

BUCCANEER DAYS RE-ENACTED FUR TRIAL AT COURT

NEW YORK. June A. Seafaring of the sort that flourished in the ear- ly eighteenth century, when a fore mast hand was virtually d slave, and his brawny skipper, armed with a be- laying pin, his undisputed master, was discovered in federal court here today by John W. Campbell, q 22-year- old high school boy of MaquoI1eta, Iowa, who answered the call of the sea and ran away from home to ship with Skipper Adolph c. Pedersen as cabin hoy on the antiquated barkentine Puako. Campbell was the first wit ness for the government which has charged Pedersen and his son, Adolp1,
 mate of the Puako in an old fashioned indictment, with the murder on the high seas, of Axel Hansen, a seaman. They are alleged to have driven Han Aen overheard by cruelty and to have

 It is estimated that there are s5,o00 acres of cotton in the valley, as against 71,000 acres last year.
 The financial outlook is much brighter than 1t has ever been before. An arrangement was made last fall with the Peoples Bank of Boston by which cotton from this valley could be consigned to that institution, and d great deal of the product of last year has been so disposed of.
 Eastern spinners are also more familiar with the high grade cotton of this valley than they have ever been before by reason of the successful ex- periments which have been made with it and are being made.

 That is what Julio Ybarra and Rafael Luque, Mexican laborers. did Friday night in Johnson addition after look ing not wisely at a bottle of bootleg. Neighbors heard their voices, but did not entertain the hallucination that Caruso and Scotti had been imported to the Warren district. The noise persisted with Julio intoning in a high pitched tenor, while Rafael sang the bass. Officers from Lowell put an end to the concert. By assessment of a fine of $10 Justice of the Peace J. L. Winters yesterday convinced the men that their voices were not all they should be, if they intended em- barking in concert work.
