If the single tax law was in force in this country the agricultural products would be greatly in creased. Thousands of acres of land are lying idle that would be utilized under the single tax law. Our thanks are due Mrs. Crosha Conner, of Independence, Mr. Lee Williams, of Brown's Station, Miss Annie Delly and Prof. J. P. Wash ington, Jo f Columbia, Prof. Geo. W. Moorman, lot St. Louis, for sub scriptions this week. The farmers convention held at Lincoln Institute is destined to arouse a long needed interest in agricultural pursuits in Missouri. The state should be divided into districts and district conventions should be held at least twice a year, one before and one after the annual meetiug at Lincoln Institute. The Professional World, under the management of Rufus L. Lo gan, has turned the first mile-stone in its history, and entered upon its second year as a newspaper. It has steadily grown better during the first year of its life, and no paper could have a better reason for existence in this part of Mis souri than a paper for the colored people. The Columbia Daily Tribune. A COMMENDABLE ACT. The action taken by President Roosevelt in removing from office Julian II. Bingham, collector of revenue for Alabama, is most com mendable. Bingham is said to be responsible for the "lily white" movement in the state of Alabama which is a movement to drive the negro from the polls, President Roosevelt evidently does not ap prove of such narrow-minded prej adicenesB and consequently has re moved Bingham from office and appointed a democrat in his place. The negroes of Alabama doubtless praise the president to the highest for his aotion. The republicans claim to be the negro's friend, but it would be better for all the posi tions in the south to be filled by demoorats than republicans of the Bingham stripe. Schools and Teachers. At Wellealey college there are clubs composed of members from the respective states. The last one to be organized is the Maine club. November 7 was observed in the schools of St. Louis as Eugene Field day with appropriate exer cises. John D. Rockefeller gave $500, 000 to teachers' college in New York, dependent upon the raising of $440,000, and in less than a week from the time the offer was made pledges were given for near' ly the whole amount. The students at the Michigan agricultural college are still on a "strike." and decided at a mass meeting a few days ago that no paper presented by tne lacuity would be signed until the boys had met in mass and passed upon it. The boys stayed in their rooms on Uallow'een night and played no pranks. There are enrolled at the Uni versity of Pennsylvania two stu dents who are father and son. The fathar, Benard Medoff, is 44 years of age and his son, Joseph, 25. Both will be graduated in the same year. They are Russians and, ike all of their nationality, ap preciate the advantages of Ameri- caa education. The father is tak ing a three years' course in archi tecture and the son is interested in the arts and sciences. The teachers of Boone and sur rounding counties will hold an institute during the Thanksgiving vacation. The indications are that the State teacher's association will be very largely attended this year. Huntsville Notes. Mr. Scott Robinson has been confined to his home with erysipe las.
