A Washington special to the BAL

Democratic victory in West Virgin
10. Sen ,tor Faulkner said he reg .rd-
Cd it az the creates, victory woa In
the whole country on election day.
rs the Republicans we're backed by
the whole p wer of the federal go:-
ernment and unlimited supplies OF
money. Secretary OF war Eikins
had given his undivided attention
to tho effort to carry that State,
and he had called to his ASSISTANT
Nest Of the prominent Republican
speakers throughout the country.
In addition to the s.ream OF mos
ey poured into the State W the
Il publican National comTittee,
further fand! had beo1 raised by
the assessment of The federal Office
holders both in Washington and in
West Virginia. All tho money tho
Democrats conld get was needed to
prevent fraudulent voting for the
Republican ticket. Secretary Ell
kins had worked up a feeling Of
confidence in their success among
all tho Republicans of the State,
and consequently they had never
made suon a spirited and confident
fight before. They were beaten,
however, by between 5000 and
5000 votes.

In arguing this question we mus
take everything as we fDd it ant
not as we would like to have it
The millennium is not yet here anG
will not be in our day. We must
admit that there is a great differ.
ence in teachers, as we'll as in those
taught, and this difference always
will exist. Some have a faculty fol-
maintaining order with but little
friction. Others just as we'll edu-
Gated fail in this particular. The
most successful are those who pun
ish the least and rely upon other
and better means to secure disci-
pline. You will find it just so in
families and, in fact, our public
schools are only a collection Of fam
lilies and the highest courts have de-
cided that the teacher stands in the
place Of parents for the time being.
Our very best disciplinarians some
times find it necessary to resort to
corporal punishment. Some teach
for years without finding it neces-
sary, but if necessary, always reserve
that right. A pupil must first re-
spect his teacher before he will love
him. We lay this down as in infal-
lible rule-as an axiom-and respect
will never be given until the pupil
recognizes the relation that exists
between him and-for the time be-
nights master. We use the term
master" advisedly in this connec-
ton. We might anticipate enough
to say that we do not recommend
punishment except in ex-
treme cases; that we are opposed to
cruel and unusual punishment in
our public schools and, finally, in
no case do we favor capital punish
ment. There is golden mean and
happy is the teacher and fortunate
the pupil where it is discovered and
applied. We had hoped some Of
our teachers would have spared US
the necessity Of giving our personal
views upon this subject although
nearly ten years in the school room
enables US to speak from practice as
we'll as from theory. We know of
no subjects of more Importance to
he community in general than
hose pertaining to our public
schools, and the teacher can always
De assured of a hearing in these
columns. We are aware that some
# our most eminent educators hold
he same views as expressed by

think the manly thing for the re-
publicans to do is to nominate their
best man-Morrill or Perkins and
give him the solid support of his
party. We are getting used to de-
feat and if we ever had any political
principles now is the time to make
them manifest. Besides the storm
will soon be over. Never again, in
Kansas, will the populists or the
combination have the strength that
it has to-day.
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1892-12-31

JUST at present there seems to be
a lull both in national and state pol.
tiles. Congress has done nothing
and, it is generally conceded, will
continue to do nothing during the
present session. We might except
the uncermonious manner in which
the Fort Hays Military Reservation
was disposed of and further add
that tracer should be sent after
Granny Baker, whose best friends
have not heard of him since he
failed to pass his little bill. It does
seem little peculiar that the demo-
Gratis are not in any hurry to save
the country now that they have OBJ
tanned the power. To hear them
talk during the last campaign we
were almost persuaded that the gov
eminent would not survive until
they secured the administration
now, apparently, the distribution of
federal patronage is the one thing
needful. In Kansas there are all
sorts Of rumors. The interest seems
to center in the election of a United
States senator. 1t looks to us as
though John Martins star was in
the ascendency although many Of
the populists are determined that
one of their own number shall be
Senator PETERS colleague, and with
that object are grooming Exon
gresham Otis. Jerry Simpson has
left his job at Washington and will
enter the arena. Mrs. Lease has
not vet discovered that her cam
paign is only joke and will help
make things lively when the legis-
lature meets. Chairman Brieden-
thal's friends insist that his ability
in conducting the late campaign
should be recognized. The republic
cans cut down the majority from
about 10000 to 5000 at the late
election and just what they might
have done had it not been for
Briedenthal will always remain a
conjecture. We don't entertain
any serious hopes that the repuo-
licans can elect one of their num-
Der. They haven't votes enough
which ought to be a sufficient
reason for the statement. The dem
ocrats and populists will caucus and
agree upon their candidate and
elect him. Unless the caucus nomi-
nee is decidedly Objectionable we
