Hinckley School Aids.
During the last two weeks we listed
summaries of state aids to Pine county
during the past few years, showing
that Pine county aids are now SO per-
cent higher (annually) than they were
a few years ago. We also showed
that the average school tax rate in
Pine county has dropped over six
mills this past year and the state
tax rate has dropped four mills or
"a percent this past year. These facts
indicate that state aids do not come
from our property taxes, and also
show that more aids help to lower
the taxes as well as make our schools
better. We also showed that there
is available surplus net income tax
money to pay all general state aids
in full. If our state legislature per-
mits this in 1899, Pine county schools
will gain another $4,000 annually.
The Hinckley school aids during the
past eight years are as follows: mo
tice how the new laws helped Hinck-
ley since 1880: 1880, $17,612; 1881,
$2O,274; 1892, $22 ,26O; 1888, $20,443;
1884, $18, 283; 1885, $22, 7O4; 1886, $780,
O34; 1887, $27,376.
The general state aids paid in full
will help Hinckley another $4,000
annually.
Next week we shall list Pine City
and Sandstone school aids. Read our
column every week.

MAYOR ENLICHTENS CITY CONTROLLER
Alleged Overdrawn Ac= count of $40O Paid for
 Check=Writing Machine

Mayor Frank Hayes, commenting yesterday on the publicity cam paign" of the Republican-A American currently emanating from the office of City Controller Sherwood L. Rowland, decided that the con- troller didn't know about the writing machine that has just arrived"
 The controller had called to at tention of the Board of Finance that the supplies item" for the mayors office was "overdraWn" $40O. That amount was the price >of the check writing machine, or dered in December, delivered a few days ago.
 Further, the mayor remarked that his office has an appropriation of $500 for entertainment and that he was not bound by statute to provide this allotment to any special per- son or group. It is understood that his reference was to the dinner given in 1885 to State Senators at Hartford, the dinner "splashed" out of the controllers office to the front pages of the Republican and Ameri- can.
 Other 'items" of the controllers publicity staff were payments al- legged to have been made to Miss Daisy Lord, former president of the Waterbury Teachers Association, and to Harry W. Minor, president of the police and fire boards, the first attributed to 1885 'item," the latter of 1886 vintage.

CHAUTEMPS MAY
 DECIDE HIMSELF

Paris, Jan. 18- UP)-Camille Chautemps was authorized by his radical socialist party today to form an all radical socialist cabinet on condition that the socialists sup port it on a popular front program.
 Socialists called a meeting for this afternoon to discuss the pro- posal and give Chautemps his an- swer. Chautemps had threatened to form a cabinet on lines which socialists could not approve in order to end a crisis that began last Fri day. But this party decided that socialist support was essential to any governmen the might form.
 There was a three-way split among socialists. Communists de- manded inclusion in any cabinet formed. Thus internal differences in the popular front added to the complications of political situa- tion which the whole country wanted ended
 Determined to form a cabinet of his own, Chautemps had begun to draft two possible cabinet lists, one with socialists, one without, when his party voted. He does not want communists.
