Editor, Tribune: A few days ago a business trip took me into your state, and I heard and read some comment regarding the candidacy of Senator Nye. I hope your paper and your people will not consider my sentiments on this mat- ter out of place, because a senator, while elected from his home state, serves, in a larger and more patriotic sense, his entire country. As one who has twice borne arms for his country, I cannot resist saying a few words to you about Senator Nye’s great service to the state of Nebraska. The right to*vote and the free ex- ercise of that vote stands unques- tioned in the minds of every real American. Here in Nebraska a dia- bolical scheme was devised whereby a man of the identical name as our junior senator, George W. Norris, was paid to file against him so that no voter could under any circumstances have his vote counted for Senator Nor- ris, The whole plot was cleverly laid. Plenty of money was available, it seems, to pay disreputable citizens to sell their honor and help put the whole outrageous scheme across. Sen- ator Nye, who was chairman of the senate investigation committee, came to this state and in a most able way succeeded in uncovering the whole disreputable mess, notwithstanding the fact that for days he was con- fronted with lies and perjury and slander. His service cleaned the Ne- braska election of graft and prevented the dollars of out-state corporations from depriving honest citizens of Go to Sarasota, Fla., where they will Mrs. John F.

Our Children’ Terming the proposed initiated measure providing for reduction of valuation of property as “disastrous to the future of our children,” H. O. Saxvik, Bismarck, president of the North Dakota Education association, Friday urged defeat of the proposal in an address before the Burleigh County School Officers association meeting. x He charged that railroads, corpora- tions and Public Utilities will derive the greatest benefit by passage of the measure. Bi “The valuations of all these are fix- ed by the state board of equalization,” he said, “and if a reduction of one- third is made now, it will be many years before their valuations will be increased whatever the condition of and has always come back.

Dates for Flower Dates for Bismarck’s spring flower show have been advanced to Wednes- day and Thursday, June 15 and 16, instead of June 17 and 18 as original- ly planned, it was announced Friday by Mrs. R. 8. Towne, chairman of the flower show committee. The new date was set Thursday evening at a meeting of the Garden club, which is Sponsoring the show. It was found advisable to hold the show earlier because peonies, which will be the main feature of the show, are maturing sooner than expected. Other flowers to be entered in the competition are iris, columbine, pop- Norton Strand will sing a Danish duet. Among the dancers will be the Misses Louise Walker, Gudrun Jor- dahl, Grace Francis, Hester Bailey, Violet Olson and Hazel Wold and Mesdames Earl Mowder, 8. L.

Pal- mer, state superintendent of public instruction, and J. A. Solein, state rural school inspector. ~ The officers met at the city audi- torium for morning and afternoon sessions. The meeting was to end late Friday. jot Fighting Economy. Saxvik told the school officers the State Education association “is not waging @ campaign against tax reduc- tion or economy. “We cannot legislate economy any more than we can legislate morality,” he said. The proposed measure, he added, will deprive local school boards of the “right to continue their economy pro- “We believe,” he continued, “that. School boards generally realize the’ necessity of retrenchment, have ef- fected great economies and will do more as the occasion requires.” School costs have been reduced $932,792 dur- ing the last 10 years, he asserted, al- though there are 12,000 more children and 615 more teachers. “If this bill becomes a law,” Sax- vik said, “it will not only destroy the right of local communities to deter- mine their own affairs, but it will give the power to remote interests to dic- tate school expenditures and take away the right to provide educational facilities according to local desire. 310 Will Be Affected “according to the report of the state tax commissioner, there are 378 districts in the state maintaining four-year high schools. Three hun- dred and 10 of these will have to re- duce their budget 31.25 per cent, or a total of $1,571,106. Fifty of these districts, to maintain the kind of schools the people want, have found it necessary to ask the people to vote the additional levy qrovided by Jaw. “There are 2,265 school districts in the state. Nine hundred and sixty- six of them would be seriously affect- ed by the e of this bill. High schools in the smalleg towns, espectal- ly in the western half of the state, would have to close. It would also hurt a great many of the rural schools. In two counties alone, every school districts would be seriously af- fected. In the eastern part of the state, valuations are high and only & few schools will be affected by the passage of this bill. In the half of the state, where valuations are naturally lower, more than 50 per cent of the schools would pe seriously a! fected. they loved you in “The Champ,” but they're CHEER- “Okay, Jackie Cooper!” ING you now!
