SCHOOL REVENUE
SHOWS DECLINE
MAKE COMPARISON OF REV
ENUE FOR MONROE INsTI.
TUTIONS IN PAST

TALLAHASSEE, Feb. 81
Florida school revenue declined
$1,795,O 900 during the last school
year, according to a summary of
county reports released today by
State Superintendent Colin Eng
lish.
School revenue from tax re-
demptions was $1,33O,OOO less
during the year 1878 than
the previous year. This decrease
of IS percent is attributed prin-
cipally to the operation of the
Murphy act.
Prior to the removal of the
poll tax as requirement for
voting, the schools collected at
least 100000 on a general cleo
ton year from this source. Dur
ing 37-38, general election
year, collections from poll taxes
were only $4,000.
Current county and district tax
collections were almost exactly
the same as the previous year
and were $4,000 less than the
year 1885. There was an in
crease of $4,000 in racing COM
mission funds available for school
purposes, as result of special
acts of the last legislature to aid
schools in certain counties.
Funds from all sources avail
able for schools during 1885,. 38 TO-
tailed $22,587,817. In 1851 the
total was $24.372, 500, and in
1885 this total was $23,159,-
542.
State sources provided So per-
cent of all revenue. Local county
and district sources available for
support and maintenance OF
schools provided 80 percent of the
total. Local revenue for debt
service was II percent. Other
sources, including federal funds
provided less than one percent OF
the total.
Total revenue for Monroe coun-
ty schools and school debt service
was $106,075 in 1878 and $780,
668 in 1867.

picion had been directed against

had been biding their time to
make entry at the unexpected
hour and make a round up.
Early Sunday morning the
move was decided on and Chief
Deputy Bernard Waite and
Deputy Ray Elwood made plans
for the entrance which had been
so carefully mapped out that
there was not the slightest chance
for any miShap occurring to
Illustrate their plans.
Both officers entered the place
simultaneously and even had
there been any disposition on
the part of the operator or those
taking part in the game to cover
up, the presence of the law
proved a deterrent factor in any
effort in any event.
At the sheriff's office this
morning it was said that chips,
markers, money and dice were
captured as result of the round
up of the dice game, and as
there was a layout handy for

All Members Making Up
Party Guests OF DR.. And
Mrs. John Brown At
Casa Marina

Visiting Key West for the first
time. former Governor Myers Y.
Cooper. of Ohio. whose home is
at Cincinnati. yesterday express
ed TO The Citizen his sincere de-
light with the climate and natural
beauties of the city and promised
to leave his winter residence at
Coral Gables more frequently in
the future to visit this island.
With former Gov. Cooper were
Mrs. Cooper, Arthur johnson, CO.
publisher of The Columbus Ohio
Dispatch, and Mrs. Johnson, who
were the guests Saturday night
and Sunday at Casa Marina of
DR.. and Mrs. John E. Brown, Co.
lumbus, who are spending the
season here.
Mr. Cooper long has been one
of the leading builders of the
country. He built large portion
of Coral Gables back in the boom
days and has constructed thou
sands of homes in Ohio and else
where. AS an experienced real
tor, Mr.. Cooper quickly set Key
West down as a resort city with
"a great future.
Liberal Minded
Former Gov. Cooper is one of
the leading members of the inner
circle of the Republican party, is
liberal-minded in mis- view to-
ward the policies that should be
adopted in restoring prosperity
ands is in constant demand as a
public speaker on economic and
political questions. His last
speech was delivered Feb. Is at
Oklahoma City where he address
ed 1000 Republicans from all sec
tons of that state in observation
of Lincoln Day.
Questioned as to his views on
the recent elections, the former
chief executive of Ohio declared
there is a definite swing toward
return Of the Republican party
to power in national affairs. Mr..
Cooper also remarked in passing
that Thomas E. Dewey, the rae
ket-busting district attorney of
New York, as result of his con-
viction of Tammany Leader
James J. Hines, doomed as a
strong Republican presidential
candidate.
Change Nation Wide
1T will be remembered the
change in sentiment in the last
elections was not local, but ma
tion-wide", former Gov. Cooper
stated. 'The average man is
more interested in good times
than in partisanship politics, but
when he struggles along for six
years with impractical schemes
and unavoidable experiments that
net an added debt of 10 billions,
with relief rolls mounting and
unemployed at ten million per-
sons, he begins to think SOberly
as to where the country is head
ed.
Business is the backbone of
recovery, yet there has been but
little to encourage business to
expand, cut loose and take a
chance-thus increasing employ
ment.
THE time has come to reduce
the cost of government by the
only way it can be done-by
putting an end to expenditures
that come under the head of ex-
travangance and waste in the es-
sential functions of government.

legislation. Cooperation on the
part of government instead of
competition, tax reduction in
