SUPERINTENDENT EARNEST
SETS FORTH NEEDS or

The Review Is interested in the ad-
Yancement of the interests Of the
Twin Cities. no matter in which the
interest lies. With this in mind, the
editor asked superintendent OF
Schools Earnest to set 10th IN brief
form the facts regarding the FORTH
coming election, which has been
called for the purpose Of further in
ereasing the tax levy Of the city to
meet the increasing needs % me pub
lie schools Mr. Earnest has replied
as follows:
Your letter suggesting d commnni-
cation cor corning the school tax

t. is asaed for the board Of education
10 levy n total school tax Of 4398 on
tho 800 of equalized assessed valua-
ton This Is not a high rate com
pared with what other communities
are spending on schools. In fact, II
Is little less than three foufths OF
the tax which the boards of education
In four or five hundred places in Hi
nois are already authorized 10 levy,
without vote of the people These
are the places which have township
or community high schools. In oul
own county. Rantoul, Fisher, Homer,
st Joseph, ogden, Mahomet, Tolono,
Phllo and Longyiew ere In this class
aad the two boards of education In
zach Of these villages may, II they
find 1t necessary, levy total tax OF
$3.50. The rate now asked in Cham
paign is not high the rate we have
aeen paying has been too low.
"The rate which the school board
is authorized to levy without vote
of the people is $2.75, so that the in
crease asked, TO make it 1898, is
$1.23 If the voters defeat this pTopo-
3ition, ii means that our school board
Is left with authority to levy to SUP
port all our schools, including the high
school, exactly one.half as much as
tho boards in the hundreds of cities
and villages mentioned have RICH
to levy. DO you think ii fair to eX-
.i7ct your school board to keep your
,hools as good as they ought to be
under such conditions?
Are laboring men and women
giling to let the schools so down?
'uppnse the additional tax costs $1,00
m $500, or even $500 pc" year al
lit!onal. The highest sum would be
paid only by rather well-to-do citi
sens and would not pay good pri-
gate teacher a week nor the entrance
fees at boarding school. If the pub
&C schools are not satisfactory, peo-
r,le of large wealth can get what thew
want by paying for it, but the only
nope OF good education for the CHI
dren OF the great majority of laboring
men lies in seeing to il that the home
'nblc schools are made as good as
hey reasonably can be made. The
way 10 do this is to see that a full

Aad So Il Goes

The irony OF fate has been felt by
The strikebreakers imported by the
Denver traction company to replace
its union men who walked out in an
effort TO secure living wage. The
strike. il will be remembered, was
lost as the company was able to Sc
cure enough non-uniop men TO keer
ne cars running-eayins them, by the
way, a fat price for their services
But now the poor dupes have been no
tilted of sharp cut IN wages, effec
tive at once; and being nnerganized
hey are in no position TO resist the
deduction. Ii they had been pos
sessed of the slightest degree of fore
sight they would have realized that
The fate of the union men they re
placed would soon be their own fate
as well.

Change Hearing Date
for Naturuiizahons

Judge G. j. McFadden made an
order in tie district court this week
changing the day for the hearing of
citizenship applications from Friday
to Saturday. In the past the date of
such hearings has been the Friday
following the second Monday I'm
March and September. but owing TO
a request from the chief naturaliza-
tion examiner at san Francisco ask
Ing that the day be changed to Sat
urday the order was made. The rea-
son given by the chief examiner was
that a judicial day was lost by the
deputy examiner in making the trip
from Ely TO Elko, where a hearing Is
,.eld following the hearing at Ely,
and by changing the date TO Satur-
day lba examiner could travel on
sunday and save the expense of loos-
ing a day,
AT the meeting OF the board OF
county commissioners held this
week an order was made by the
board to prohibit fishing in North
creek, in the extreme southern part
Of the county, and Bennett creek,
near Bothwiok. for a period of two
years. The order to close North
creek was made in response to e re.
guest by the county commissioners
of Lincoln county. for the reason
that the lower part of this creek ex.
tends into Lincoln county and the
game warden of that county has
stocked the creek with young trout,
which should be protected from the
angler for at least two years.

O'NeiH Discharged
on Larceny Indictment

The April term of the district court
was convened last Monday. at which
time the trial jurors reported to court
and the first criminal case on the
calendar, that of Tom O'Neill, who
was indicted by the grand jury on a
charge OF grand larceny, claimed the
attention of the court.
The morning session Of the court
was taken up In the selection OF o
Jury and during the afternoon SEES
sion District Attorney Walker pre-.
scented the case OF the state. Tho
principal witness for the state was
John Ray, who was also under In.
dictment by the grand jury for the
same crime as charged against Tom
O'NeiIi. Ray made a confession as
an accomplice to the robbery OF the
packing house of the Ely Packing
Company the night OF January 3,
when certain smoked meats and cans
of lard were taken from the store
room and hidden In a deserted
building in Central Ely. This con-
fession and the oral testimony OF
Ray on the witness stand vas the
strongest feature in the case as pre-
~sented by the prosecution.
No witnesses we're offered by G. A.
Eddy, attorney for the defendant,
and defendant O'Neili vas not put
on the stand. The % cross-ex.
animation of the state witnesses and
the argument before the jury wal
the only defense presented by At
torney Eddy. The jury retired o.
1870 and deliberated until abou'
1870, when 1t returned into cour
and delivered a verdict of not guilty
Upon the reading of the verdict b.
the clerk the defendant was release,
from custody.

Secretary of Labor Davis Is new
on the job. but he appears to hav,
some pretty good ideas. He made {
speech In Chicago recently and de
clared that a fair living wage fol
labor, a fair deal for capital, larger
profits for farmers through lower
shipping rates and settlement OF all
threatened strikes by the aid of the
golden rule is the hope of the peo-
pie of this nation.
He asks for nothing impossible. 1t
is fair to ask labor TO help the farm
or to get proper transportation SO
| he can get a fair return for his prod
net and effort. Capital. he says. is
lust as much entitled to a hearing as
labor. but he warns labor hat he
must be content to meet capital at
the halfway point. He argues thaf
each of us is so dependent on the
other fellow that we cannot ignore
conditions nor. so long as things are
going smoothly with us, close our
eyes 10 that part OF our country IN
which the travelling is rough
Within the next few weeks the sec
rotary is apt to be called upon 10 set
tie some bad labor tangles. NO mat
ter where they occur, they are bound
to affect Ely people. Any strike oil
great proportions would be felt here
in some form or another, and usually
in the. increased cost of something
We are forced to have. So II will BIZ
interesting for us to sit steady IN the
boat and watch the outcome OF the
secretarv's plan TO use the good old
golden rule in our industrial life.

There has always been an objee-
ton on the part of Ely merchants IL
having city merchants enter tn
field. More than once they have
said openly to the editor OF the News
that he is not loyal to the town
and community il he encourages or
accepts advertising from the mer-
chants in larger towns. and they
have preached whole sermons about
standing up for the home town
first.
We haven't needed any OF these
sermons. for we've stood for
ANYTHING else but the home town
first. last and all the time. But it's
a Door rule that won't work both
ways. So if the hometown paper Is
going TO throw into the wastebasket
advertising that comes from the out
side then it has a right 10 expect the
home merchant to make up hat loss
Two can play al this game of 10y
atty. and ii the publisher Is going
TO be loyal and turn down city ad-
vertising then the home merchant
must be loyal enough to see hat h
does not suffer. II takes
money to Idn q newspaper, the same
any other business. and we can
paw bills with sentiment.
Yes, there's two sides TO the home
loyalty question. IL you want
the home trade and want to keep the
city merchant from getting IL, then
do what he is willing and anxious to
do-advertise for it. SO long as you
do not. LOYALTY counts for nothing
with you. We're for the home town
first, and we always will be, and We
arc just as strong for the merchant
who Is fair enough to advertise his
goods in the hometown paper II he
expects TO keep his city competitor
out OF it.

Reports from all sections OF the
United States indicate that the fruit
crop has suffered terribly from April
cold snaps. Many states In the mid
die west report that not a bud has
been left, while the south has been
hit hard on account of the season be-
ing so far advanced when the chill
came Possibly the result will not
be as black as now predicted. but
whether 1T is or not Ely people will
be justified in giving more than the
usual attention to their gardens, the
next pest thing to tide them over the
winter when the fruit crop is a fail
ure. More work and harder work
and more care in raising and canning
vegetables will help Offset the short
age OF fruit. And those who are
fortunate enough to have some OF the
latter will do we'll to remember thai
this season. especially, it will be un'
wise to let even the smallest meas
ura of fruit go to waste.

with Roger Cont, champion Of France,
at Maurice Days Academy, by winning
both blocks yesterday. The afternoon
score was 400 to 396 and that of the

The match is for 5000 points and

his opponent at the close of last nights
session by n total score Of o,21i to
Conti's 1889.
In the afternoon session Schaefer
was compelled to show real champion
ship caliber when Cont, having scored
Ss6 points, missed, although the CON
sensus of opinion among those present
was to the contrary. Schaefer needed
exactly 273 points to run out
=, 1t was here that the son of Wizard"
Schaefer accomplished the difficult tasl,
OF running out the string. The evening
block was practically a shutout. Schae-
fer scored his required 400 points in
four innings, while the Frenchman ran
a bad second with At to his credit,
