Governor Moore betid bus disappointed bis critics by going nboad with the state's business without noiso und bluster. Thochnngo is very agreeable. No ono questions for n moment but what tbo rural curriers will be plea&od when the rouds got hotter. Anil the auto ownors are as anxious tis a boy with a now pair of skates to got out and talto another spin. However, altbo the going is a bit unpleasant, tbo wheat crop Is booming and tbo farmer smiles at the prospects of the golden harvest that is not very far nwny. Three now business buildings were erected last year which have greatly added to tho appearance of our city. Tho MoFailnnd building, the Peterson building and tho Hall building. Thesu Hew structures have tilled up tho gups that hitherto occurred In our htioets. Several now dwelling houses were built mid inlilly 'niomfro-iudtleU'd qo that as ntwlV wo pui'oiilcttt botfbvnp; pentaiKv than ev'gr before und" teUlll.es to tlui f.vot that wo uro indeed a po:' miiiii nt ijif.w Wo frocpumtly hour the question why a fluuubci' of Commtucei This oiguii ixallou has nmdo It possible for our business and professional men to got acquainted with ouch other and if it never iccnmplNhcs more than Unit "It will n it have- lived lit vain." IJut It bus do lemotu than that and It will continue to bo a bonoflt as long ns It is couduoted along presi'nt plans. What benollth ono, benellts all, and we can not innlco this au ideal city unless wo all work for the common good. The Chamber of Commerce is to muke this city a better city, a good marlcot towu, a fit place in which to live It is about time for talking city politics. The planning for tho year's work should not be delayed until tbo last minute. The plan of having but one party tlckot resulted in good and rte believe that it should bo given another trial. Wo ought to empha size our agreements aud not our differ ences. The get togother spirit is in the air and we have loarnod that iu- Jense partisanship iu city aurs is not, for the best Interests of tho wholo olty. An Open Letter Hiss Edith A. Lathrep. Scc'y .School Law Revision Com.. Lincoln, Neb. licAtlMisS IjAIIIIIOI'! I winto the Sun ders Publishing Co., of Chicago, n week or ro ago, to send you tho holiday number of the Gazette u farm paper, that has au atliclu in by Uovuinir Khurluirtof Minnesota, in rng,ird to the Country .Schools. J liopo the School Law Revision Com mission will lead what the (lovernor has to say In regard to tho Ilural or Central High School. Vou will notice that they have over Mxty consolidated schools that arc doing good work for I hu community Hurt they ate located (a. Yon will notice that tho Governor recommends State Aid for the rural community school. The question arises bow shall we get or raise -file state aid for rural communities. As I wrote you some tltnu ago I bo llevo that the State Superintendent should have all school funds that Is paid in the different couutios from tho railroads, interstate telegraph and tolo phono linesv because all tho ponplo of thu state support interstate or railroad trttjllo. Tbo rural communities should at least have their prorato sharo of the school fund paid iu by interstate cor porations. The rural communities havoHomuch further to take their tralilc to support Interstate or railroad trafllc. 1 will send you a clipping from ono of our county papers, stating bow we voted lion lis '2 years ago and have paid Interest to tho amount of $33,375. Tho amount of lfonils wo voted was SiT.GOO.OO, making a total of 8l.'n7."i.00. All tho taxable property iu the county paid Its sharo of tittT bonds and inter est." 1 notice that 'district No. 12 lias a t-cliool levy of :i mills, it Is a rural dis trict but tins a railroad through it. A poison would suppose that the railroad paid a good shaie of their school taxes. Our district No. G.' has a levy 'for school purposes of SIX per 8100. The whole community" tfippdrts tho rail road. I think It iftfrinjusticu f'"1 ti.e other rural eotnmiihlty, etc.,- to flup port) district No. P.!. with railroad tlixos to I'uiifh'eir school with i 1'iVe'fy child of school ago should have au equal chauco foraii education. Now if lMstrlot i'o. 0.1 help1 pay any psrl. of M-liool district, No lti's School Uixes.'it in an injustice U the child of clNtiietNo ii." and every other rural cDiiuuiiuity that suppcut'S tliti railroad. Tho whulo community supports tho railroad. Aud the district that has a railroad thiough it should only get Its prorato sharo for every child of school age in the state. I think that If a school district lias a levy of $;i,50 per S100.00 and gets all of the railroad school taxes from the railroad that runs through it. It is just so much greater of au injustice than the district that lias III) cents per 100.00 because tho wholo community outside and in side of said district has to support tho railroad in order for them to get tho f.'J.CO per 8100. 00 School Levy for said school district. I think Governor Eberhart's article on Rural School Communities is good and should be read by all of tho School Law Revision Commission. Respectfully yours, P. E. Patne.
