ture of "the education of the
states children and the schools"
Governor Ehringhaus vigorous
" defended the three per cent
sales tax imposed by the 1888
general assembly and pointed out
that without the sales tax the
schools of the state could not have
been operated this year on any
thing like as extensive a basis as
they have been with it.
"Wher the day came when it
was evident that l had to choose
between the sales tax and the
schools, | chose the schools" the
governor declared. He pointed out
that the 1888 general assembly
wrestled for almost five months
in an effort to find some way to
finance the schools without a sales
tax and had been unable to do it.
He struck out vigorously at his
critics who have been conducting
whispering campaign through
out the state to the effect that
the 1888 general assembly could
have found enough money to fl
nance the state and the schools
without imposing the 3 per cent
general sales tax. He further
flung a challenge into their teeth
bv declaring that he favored the
retention of the sales tax until
such a time as an equivalent
amount of revenue could be OBJ
tanned from other sources. The
Education association had pre-
viously adopted a resolution along
this same line, in favor of the re-
tention of the state sales tax.
The governor went back and re-

viewed in detail the difficult time
the 1888 general assembly had in
trying to find revenue of any kind
and told the teachers and super
intendents the real story of that
now almost historic struggle to
save both the state government
and the states schools from bank
ruptcy and ruin and pointed out
that other sources of revenue had
dried up. especially property tax
es, so that there was nothing else
to do but enact the sales tax If
the schools were to be saved. He

But on this Homecoming Mar

friends murmured that she was

up the old story about Ted JEFF

her supposed friends, had gone
pretty far"
Marcia knew what was being
said and who was saying it but
his knowledge did not matter as
once it would have. The two
things that mattered were her
feeling OF guilt, which was In
creasing instead of diminishing,
and her fear for Pablito's safety.
She began to thaw toward a
young attorney who, with sundry
other men, had for long while
added to her arrogance by a
yelled courtship of her fortune.
And while she was with him she
sounded him out about the treat
ment OF criminals and about
whether they always had fair
trials.
One unusually cool May night
they sat before fire in the draw
ing room of Marcia's home. She
said, leaning forward. Tell me,

she wants to hide the boy from

A few hours later Billings did
find out about It. He learned from
a woman who had been Angela's
neighbor. but not her friend. that
Angela had abused the boy fright

run away. God in his mercy alone

"Therc has been a lot of talk
ever since / became governor
about the large number of COM
missions and high salaried Off
Gals and bureaus and depart
ments and that if some Of these
were abolished the state could pay
its school teachers more" the gov
.ernor said. But if you should
abolish the office of governor,
abolish every elected and appoint
ed state official, discharge every
state employee in the various state
departments and shut up all the
state governmental buildings here,
as some seem to be advocating,
you would reduce the cost of the
state government only two per
cent and save only about 1,100,-
600. This amount, if added to the
appropriation for schools would
hardly be enough to increase your
salaries eight per cent. Is this ov-
travagance in state government"
1t was quite plain to observers
here that the governor was here
answering the attacks taht have
been made and still are being
made upon his administration by
former Lieutenant Governor R. T.
Fountain, WHO was here through
out the teachers convention and
by Attorney General Dennis G.
Brummitt, who are still regarded
as the irreconcilables of the anti
Ehringhaus faction in the Demo-
cratic party in the state.
