BRITAIN CUTS
1885 OFFICERS
OFF NAVAL LIST
Reduction Forced by
Arms Farley Passes
Over 1t. Commanders

London. May 14.-lBy the As
ISOLATED Press.,-An admiralty order
was published Saturday for the retire
ment of officers necessitated by the
decision Of the Washington armament
conference for naval reduction.
The number of officers to be dis
pensed with is not so large as had
been expected or feared in the service.
Of al officer strength of about $3.50.
a total of 1885 will be retired. The
loss to the navy of such a number will
be so sever as the mere counting
of heads would indicate. One officer
described the reduction as a plan to
increase the efficiency of the navy by
decreasing the number of officers.
None of the large number of ad-
mirals in the British service will be re-
tired by the admiralty order, but many
of them automatically will drop out
shortly because of age. Most impor-
tant to the navy's efficiency are the
experienced officers of the line. A
total Of 40 captains and 200 COM
manders will be retired, but the grade
of lieutenant commander, which is
more important to the strength of the
navy two years hence, is not touched.
Thus only $40 of those men such as
in the American navy are termed Eek
perienced line officers" which means
those with more than 10 years service,
will be lost.
Lieutenants to the number of 407
who are graduates Of the naval school
will go. and 703 other men of the same
and lower rank, a considerable
ton OF whom were promoted from the
lower deck during the war, are in
cluded. This makes a total Of 1,429
line officers. The grand total of 1885
is made by the addition of 245 engi-
neers. 101 accountants and 60 mar7,e
officers.

Fought For The Rural Schools.
As a member of the Senate Edu-

members of the committee, intro
duced and passed a bill known as
the elementary school bill and this
bill was based on scolastic population

school.
AS a member of the committee I
knew that larger families were rear
ed in the country and thus the idea
to improve the country schools and
give them the money with which to
run their term longer was conceived;
we did this by levying a tax over
the whole state. knowing that the
cities had two thirds of the wealth.
Under this system each county
OF my district gets many thousand
more dollars from the state than
they actually pay in to the state
treasury. Under this system the
amount that is paid in by each
county and received in return from
the state are as follows: for the year
