WILLIAM n. MOORE,

The Candidate OF the Colored Republic
cans OF Memphis for Vice President.
To the Biltor Of the Appeal.
Looking over the field for candidate
whose qualifications are safe guarantee
Of the fitness Of the man, thousand
reasons against any possible objection
might be adduced pointing TO the Hon.
William r. Moore rs the one eminently
proper TO OH the second place on the ma
tional Republican ticket. On behalf OF the
Republican party and the country at
large, we propose n nomination we'll
worthy the support OF Americans. He
has stood as the representative aud cham
pion of the inalicnable rights Of all men,
never swerving from what he believed IN
H. right lie has advocated in and out Of
Congress those interests conducive 10 ma

prosperity, and rs the man Of business

place In the rank and Gle OF the people.
Too frank and honest in his convictions Of
right. he ia too open TO deceive, No that OF
him Il may DO said, ole never betrayed a
cause, he never forsook friend" Too
fond Of the right 10 pursue the oxpcdicnt
and ever ready TO take up any duty
that lay before him, he follows a
purpose with soul, heart, mind and strength,
doing nothing by halves. His life and
opinions embody the progressive thoughts
OF the nation, and his party will fail In
finding nobler exponent Of iis principles.

OF every land, with continent as birth
right and freedom as franchise, requires
the application of strong principles to the
new and changing conditions. These
principles are not TO be reflected from one
great section alone, but from every quar-
ter, looking to destiny embracing the
best results and the broadcast humanity.
On this line OF development our govern
ment finds its surest and strongest founda-
ton. As a public citizen, Col. Moore has
connected himself with the records of his
country. In the Forty-third Congress, of
which he was member acting upon the
inspiration of his own heart and the die
tates OF his best judgment, he showed in
the conduct OF his cause courage which
was the subimity of true heroism. What
courage in the field OF battle, what proud
ambition, compares with that never-dving
energy the dauntless soul, which quails
not in the discharge of the grave duties
involving the future OF our gov
eminent? From that higher realm
OF consciousness and feeling must come the
directors who shall quicken the aspirations
of humanity and keep alive the vestal fires
upon our affairs.
Rising from hard life OF narrow condi-
terng them without fear, Col. Moore,
with his destiny in his own hands, has
demonstrated that, while our institutions
of government confer no special privileges,
the humblest American can find an equal
pathway. They invite the worthiest to the
highest seats, and while the nation moves
majestically on in her orbit, developing
her vast powers, each year calling 10 her
aid those better and grsnder qualities of
manhood from the ranks of the people,
the source OF national life and strength
comes from the voluntary exercise OF
free citizenship.
The supreme desire OF the Republican
party is 10 gather new accessories OF glory.
In justice to all sections, let the great COM
ing convention name our honored citizen,
and the nation looking upon their public
servant during his years Of service crowned
with duties well done and honors well
earned, will have no cause TO regret his
nomination. b. X. SAMPSON.

dition; and with all the mechanical
operations of the school system there is
no piece of the machine that runs with
more wearing and tearing effects than
the examination. If it is an objection
to our school system that it destroys
diversity of character through the uni
formity of conditions, then surely ex-
aminations are Objectionable, because
they narrow the field of study till it
reaches the uniformity of certain tests
that can be met without really master
ing the subjects II which one is eX-
amined. In its discussion Off this sub
ject the New York Times peril
nently remarks: "The point to be made
is that examination should not be the
master and rule the methods of work.
In all the higher schools the money re-
wards of learning are too often hostile
to the best results in mental develop
ment. Boys are trained for scholarships
as two-year-old horses are strained for
the races, and young men at the uniyer-
stiles are made to believe that the main
purpose of education is that they may
win high prizes at the examination. The
examination system, by which the roots
of knowledge are constantly pulled up
to see if they have sprouted, is in full
blast, and its work in diverting our
youth from the true ends of education
is as deeply and injuriously felt In
America as in England"

Thirteen Still Unluckx.

The gossiper Of the Washington Post tells
touching story of the way in which certain
Southern congressman are affected by the
news of the recent floods at Augusta, Ga. In
$40 there was food at Augusta, and i'm
mediately after it subsidized William Henry
Harrison was elected president That was
known as the Harrison freshet,'' ana since
that time, SO the story goes no other watery
calamity has befallen Augusta until this year.
During the present freshet the water has
risen thirteen inches higher than in 1910,
and what disturbs the Southern members is
the fear that it will be followed by the cleo
ton OF another Harrison to the presidency.
These gentlemen should remember that thir-
teen IS the unlucky number, and should see
IN the fact that the water rose thirteen inches
higher than in 1910, an omen of certain de-
feat for Harrison.-Chicago Herald, Sept 80,
1888.
There can be no doubt, since age has
only strengthened the superstition that
thirteen is an unlucky number, and Mr..
Harrison, while lucky in carrying the
electoral vote, may prove to be bad luck
for himself, his party and the country
at large-the latter being the popular
majority that welded the electoral
minority. We hope, however, that four
years of Office will not afford him suf-
ficient time to do much damage-just
enough to show the policy Of the plat
form that he represents.

That Town Will Succeed Cleye-
land in the American Associa-
ton.
PITTsBURG, Dec. 1.-The board OF
arbitration of the large base ball leagues
discussed the articles of qualified adj
mission to the national agreement at its
session to-day. Changes were made
requiring minor leagues applying for
admission to have four clubs, and COM
pelling them to pay all salaries to
players before contracting for next
year. Territorial rights were also
amended and the four-miie limit
adopted. making it compulsory upon
minor league club to sell player to any
club who agrees to purchase
him. The action of Des Moines
in agreeing to sell Holiday
to Philadelphia for 81, 500 and then sell
ing him to Cincinnati for $4,000, was the
cause of the adoption of this rule. A
resolution censuring Des Moines was
also adopted. The board adjourned
this evening, and members left for home
on to-night's train. 1t it stated, upon
reliable authority, that arrangements
have been made for Columbus, o., to
take the place of Cleveland in the
American association. Four citizens
have agreed to subscribe $4,000 for the
purpose of putting good club in the
field, and a meeting of prominent Off
ciais of the association will be held in
Columbus tomorrow to close the deal.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The secretary
of the interior to-day heard argument
in the matter of the adjustment of the
grant of the st. Paul, Minneapolis &
Manitoba Railway company. The case
before the secretary was on reference
from the commissioner of the general
land Office for instructions. The ques-
ton involved is whether, in the
adjustment of the grant to the state of
Minnesota to aid in the construction of
this road and its branches, the grant
should be treated as an entirety so as to
permit the selection of the surplus
lands along the main line to make up
deficiency along the line of the st. Vim
cent extension. S. ii. Pinney, counsel
for the railway company. and Vice
President Clough contended that the
act of March 8, 1865, authorized the
company to make its selections within
the twenty-mle limits through the en-
tire length of the road and its branches.

SCHOOL EXAMINATIONS.

We are gratified to observe that the
GLOBES advocacy of the abolishment
of school examinations has attracted the
attention of the Eastern metropolitan
press, and the subject is now being DIS
cussed with warmth and earnestneSs
in proportion with its merits. While the
GLOBES views are pretty unanimously
Endorsed by our Eastern contemporaries,
vet there are few of our exchanges
who Strenuously oppose any change that
would look to the elimination of feat
ture in our educational system of such
venerable antiquity. The examination
system is invested with the sacredness
of age. 1t is supposed to be akin to sac
rilege to discuss itnow. Those who take
this view of the subject seem to be ig-
norant of the fact that on both sides of
the Atlantic educational methods are
in processes of change. Educators
realize that the tests Of progress have
been applied OUT of all proportion to
the progress made. The tendency has
been to oyer-0rganiZe and Oyer-regulate;
therefore, it was not matter of sur
y :
magazine that is always in the van CT
the best thought, some time ago de-
claimed against the injury that was
being inflicted upon the cause of edu-
cation by a perpetuation of the eXami-
nation system. Prof. MAX MULLER,
once himself strenuous advocate
of examinations, is to-day opposed
to them, and says If the examination
maintains it's present advantage it will
poison the best blood of England, if it
has not done SO already" lie is now
satisfied that the tendency of the eX-
animation system is to destroy the best
men by hindering them from working
freely and with proper individuality.
If the reasons for eliminating exam
nations from the school system of
England are substantial, they surely
have a stronger application in this
country of free institutions. where so
much depends Oh the development of
individuality. AS has been we'll
said by a distinguished educator,
the great aim in education is
the reaching Of certain results
through the diversity of means that
follows the dyersities Of temperament
and endowment. Where examinations
are too frequent and stress is laid upon
them. it is the examination and not the
mastery of the study III hand that rules
the thought OF the more ambitious STU
dents, and this both narrows and de-
feats the ends of education.
The one great defect in our public
school system is that there is too much
mechanism about it. In the first place,
the individuality of the teacher is re-
pressed by the automatic requirements
of the school law and the cast-iron rules
adopted by the school boards. In
the second place, the teacher hay
ing been made all automaton, it
naturally follows that the pupil
| is squeezed down to the same con-
