THE MILL I.W.
The Farmers Union has gone on
record favoring a mill tax for the
support of the higher educational in
stitution! of tin- State. New Is the
tlmo to Impress upon the minds of
the legislators-elect their duty in this
matter. We have as a state long ago
adopted a definite educational policy
and established Institutions accord
ingly. It is just as easy now as any
time to determine what proportion
of our taxes we will devote to this
purpose as to do so every legislature
with all the evils attending such a
method. Thirl - years ago when
the Rogers' "barefoot" hool bill was
passed we determined definitely the
amounts we would regularly Bel
apart for the common schools and it
has been a blessing I hal it was done
in that way. Why should we not fol
low the same policy In the case of
the higher institutions? it. would
help the taxpayer so to do and bene
lit the Institutions. What, are some
of the advantages of I he mill tax sys
tem In this case. By a mill tax we
mean thai a certain definite tax, for
example one mill or a fraction of a
mill should be levied to create a fund
for the support of these institutions to
which they should be confined rather
than depend on special appro
tions by each legislation from the
general fund. The first great ad
vantage is that it would remove tin
whole question from politics. Every
two years tin- representatives an-'
friends of tin- respective Institutions
are compelled to gather at Olympia
to see to It that in the hurly-burly the
institution is not left out in the cold.
In the second pi a the boards of re-
nts could ptirsuo a regular anVI
consistent policy of maintenance an I
Improvements if they knew for some
years In advance just about what the
income would be. This would con
duce to a business and economical
administration. Third and most Im
portant it would prevent logrolling,
by which the state is held up for spe
cial and temporary appropriations of
no general use or advantage, "Spe
cial Interests" know well how to play
this game and keep the mouths of
those who stand for the state's regu
lar work shut up or even compel
from them a reluctant support. A
mill tax for the state's institutions, if
it had been in force two years ago,
would have saved nearly a million
dollars of special appropriations that
were secured by special Interests,
Tell your representatives and sena
tors to support the mill tax.
Mercer —the Man With a Message
In January there comes to Wash
ington State College a new speaker,
and that man is Mercer. It is not
tin- first time that Mercer has visited
a large school. In tin- short time
that he has been mi In- plat form, he
has visited Yale for four consecutive
years, and Princeton, the University
of Pennesylvanla, ami many of the
large schools of tin- country, for
three years.
Mr. Mercer is a member of one of
the most prominent families of Geor
gia. He i. the son a federal judge,
and in recognition of the services of
his great-grandfather, General Hugh
Mercer, there stands a monument in
Princeton, New Jersey. He is a
cousin of Chester A. Arthur.
Mr. Mercer is a graduate nt tin
University of Virginia. While there
he was a captain of baseball, a mem-:
ber -if the Glee club, ami the Senior
society. lie was a member of the
team from ' he University of Virginia
which competed in the championship
games at he World's Fair in IS'.UI.
He is a member of the Beta Theta Pi
fraternity.
Mercer's religion is a religion of
red blood, He is not an evangelist.
He is not a fanatic. Neither does he
represent tlie type of religion whose
devotees consider their work well I
done when they have droned out a
few hymns and prayed in tin- time
worn phrases of the'middle age. His 1
is a religion of service. It's work!
begun within the walls of the church
is but its beginning. The mission of
Mercer is to preach the simple reli
gion of today, a religion of blood
and sinew, instead of dry ami dusty
hones. His message is for tho col
lege man and the college man owes
it to himself and to future genera
tions to heed.
An I to pis dispatch to ihe in
land Herald states that, the Wash
ington State College will this year
ask for $1105,10:5 from the Btate leg-
Mature. Tbe University of Wash
ington wants $UG8,343, the Ellens-
WM. GOODI Lessee.
burg Normal $120,000, Bellingham
Normal $163,968, and the Cheney
Normal 77,161, a total of $3,035,
--126, or about twice the amount the
same Institutions asked for two years
ago. The State College has reached
a point where a large amount of
money is required to meet the need
of the Institution and the amount
asked is very fair, and an appropria
tion of less than that amount would
prove a serious obstacle In the way
of he progress of the Instlution.

A very deeply interested audience
listened to Prof. A _ Evans at the
Christian church last Sunday night
nn "The Legal Aspects of the Trial
of Christ." Prof. Evans' Intimate
acquaintance with the laws and court

NOW IS THE CHANCE
TO CONSULT THE EMINENT SPEC
IALIST, DR. DARRIN
IN PULLMAN
THE AFFLICTED SHOULD CALL NOW
AT THE PALACE HOTEL
IMS visit WILL expire next
TUESDAY EVENING,
DEC. liTli.
Tin- Scientific Treatment of This
Well-Known Specialist Has
Cured Hundreds.
It is a rare opportunity that comes
once in a lifetime for the afflicted to
learn from a. recognized authority—
chronic disease expert, a specialist—
just what their trouble is, and
whether or not it is curable. All they
would have to do is to apply to Dr.
Darrln, who has returned to Pull
man for lie- last, time ibis season at
his old quarters in the Palace hotel,
any time between the hours of :- a.
m. ml 8 p. in. daily, and secure a
free confidential examination and ad
vice. A little talk will cost noth
ing.
Let Those <'iiin ( . Who Have Some
Complicated Trouble.
Those who have suffered for years
without knowing just what it was
that did ail them and are perplexed
by the different opinions given by
different doctors. Dr. Darrin will
tell them how they suffer, and If
curable he will tell how they i an be
cured, and if Incurable he will say so.
Dr. Darrin Is Honest With the Sick.
If he finds a case where medical
skill is powerless he frankly tells the
patient so. and gives such advice as
will aid them without charge. If
curable Dr. Darrln tells just how
much it will cost to be cured. This
saves sick people the trouble of go
ing from one doctor to another to
find out hal hey "think" the trou
ble is, and then trying to decide
which doctor was nearest to tin
truth. It saves suspense; it saves
money — for Dr. Darrln points out the
soro spots, tells every ache and pain,
tells why they Buffer and how they
can In- cured. There is no mystery
about it—it is no superhuman but
aboo, but simply the result, of years
of hard work treating nothing else,
and the grand experience gained in
treating thousands of similar eases
thai enables the doctor to tell at a
glance what organ is affected, how
and why, and what the remedy is.
Consult lii in Today, Tomorrow, or
Any Time Before Dec. 7th.
Dr. Darrin will examine all cases
free of charge. His continual suc
cess in treating chronic diseases has
won for him the largest practice)
among the best classes of people in
this vicinity. His cures are attested
by the thousands of published testi
monials from sick people all over the
northwest.
Home Treatment,
The doctor has the most effective
treatment known for the successful
treating of the patient in tin- privacy
of their own home. Dr. Darrin Bays
distance makes no difference in the
effecting of cures, as he keeps in con
stant touch with every patient by
correspondence from his head office
on the Sound until each ease is cured.
Thousands have been restored to per
fect health in this way that otherwise
would have died or continued to suf
fer chronic invalidism.
The afflicted should call ami se
cure proper treatment before it is too
late and beyond medical and human
aid, for it is seldom indeed that Pull
man is favored by the visit of a high
class specialist whose experience has
in-ill world wide, covering many
years of practice. adv.
