HOW FRENCH WAS DEFEATED.
Grifith's Little Scheme Worked Through in
a Teachers Association.

Professor E. E. Griffith IL credited with work.
ing very shrewd scheme to capture the Demo
cratic nomination for Superintendent of Public
instruction. This is the way it was done: The
Northern Association of Teachers met at Lo-
gansport the 2sth 29th and 30th of March. this
year--an association which includes all the
leading teachers in that part of the State where
Mr. Griffith and Senator French, his late oppo.
nent, lived. Mr. Griffith. knowing tina. French
was going to be candidate before the conven-
ton, and believing him to be his strongest
opponent. quietly set to work to engineer lit
tie plan through the association which would
throw Mr.. French when the time came. He
caused the following resolution to be written.
introduced and passed: I'VE protest against
the election of any politician to the office OF
State Superintendent Such officer should be
of q professional standing among teachers and
actively engaged in school work." The resoIu-
ton looked all right when presented to the
teachers. and appeared to voice their senti-
ments, though its psrtinency did not quite ap-
pear as there had not been a politician" as
the resolution says. elected superintendent OF
Public Instruction for a number of years, and
IL had never before and did not now seem neees-
sary 10 pass such resolution.
A copy of a paper containing IL was marked
and sent to Superintendent Marows, OF Sulli-
van. who was also looming mp at the time as
candidate for the nomination-the struggle then
appearing to be between him and Senator
French. When MarIowe's friends received the
paper they thought they had exactly the argu-
ment with which to down French, and they
went to work using it vigorously. and a. the
result afterwards showed. effectively. They
made the campaign against French right on this
point. and with this argument they beat him
When the convention came Mr. Griffith
was down from Frankfort with . good corps OF
workers to take advantage Of Marlowes cam
paign against French, which he did in good style.
In the fight hariowe appeared as the sntaeonist
Of French, though, as q matter of fact, Griffith
was the real one, having started the argument
against him and worked il in an indirect man.
msr that defeated him The campaign OF Mr.
Grifith, while not the most ingenious and frank
imaginable. had this redeeming feature-it won.
