KieEale Did It All,

"From my point of view" said the
superintendent. "the progress of the
last year has been remarkably saUlsfact-
DRY. Now, there is nothing that may
have said in the past with regard to the
administration of summer schools,
which is not at this time aid open Tor
your free ard full discussion. and eriti-
cism. l will make few remarks,
though. We have no summer school
law. The law was defeated, but the
appropriation was passed. Our apprO-
priaton for this work is small, only
5000 year. With that | have done
the best could in the selection of fac
ulties for the schools. My purpose has
been not to limit or cramp any educator
sent out into this field" The superin.
tendent went on to explain at length
how he had inaugurated the summer
school system.
In order that no one else could receive
any praise for work well done Supt.
Kiehle enjoined the teachers as follows:
St. Paul daily globe., 1892-12-28
No Flattery Went.

To begin the work of the morning. State
Superintendent Kiehle said he had started
this summer school work without any pre-.
conceived notions of what The system should
develop into, with no idea of educating any
body up or down TO his ideas lie wanted
each person to express his own independent
Judgment of this question. He wanted no
Hatteriug of each other or telling what good
wore they had done. Speaking of his owD
efforts in this connection. he said that he
last legislature had defeated the law tor sum
mer schools, but passed the appropriation.
So that the only law npon this matter was
the general law for institutes. He then de-
scribed how he had chosen faculties for the
several summer schools. FIRST. he selected
the conductor, who must be satisfactory to
the county superintendent. Then, when this
was done, the selection of instructors was
very largely in accordance with the wishes
of the conductor and county superintendent.
He explained why and how he selected Prof.
c. H. Congdon, supervisor of music of the st.
Paul schools. He was the general ad wiser i'll
this branch of instruction, but was not to in
terfere with special instructors sent out to
certain schools.
Strange as it may seem to men of spir-
it there were reports made by the insti-
tute conductors after Supt. Kiehle had
laid down the bounds within which the
speakers could talk. The Kiehle ma
chine works very nicely at every point,
and it grindS exceedingly fine. The
man who is outside it may be the ablest
educator in the state, but he will find a
very hard road to travel if Supt. Kiehle
has it in his power to make it so.
The chief of the Kiehle machine is
the president Of the Wnona nor
mai school, Prof Shepherd, WHO
has tried TO bring 1.-The heads
of the other three schools
into line with him in his work for Supt.
Kiehle, and he seems to have succeeded
to a certain extent, although it involved
a change OF heart in at least one Of
these officials. But, fine as the Kiehle
managers have laid their plans, they
will not secure an Endorsement of Mr..
Kiehle from the teachers of the state.
OF course, If they did it would count for
nothing with the new governor, for the
simple reason that Mr.. Nelson Will be
told the means that have been used by
the Kiehle machine to secure such
action.

Your obedient servant
C. NJ. STRONG.
We believe all who read the above
will admit there is considerable truth
in the article. Mr.. Strong, as we
have frequently stated, has made an
excellent official, and has served the
town faithfully. We are not certain
that Mr.. Kelley, his successor, will
do as well-that remains to be seen.
We do believe, however, that it is
not according to American ideas to
keep one man continually in office
Everybody is supposed to be a bur-
den-bearer and it is unfair to compel
one person to serve his constituency
continually. 1t causes him to slight
his private business, and be derelect
in his domestic affairs. Then again
men are so peculiarly constructed
that they are willing-sometimes
anxious-to bear their share of the
burden and to take hand in serving
their town. They think the honors,
if there are any, should be passed
around. 1t may be expensive to a
town to make changes in its officials,
yet it must break in new men some
time, and Judging from its action
last week this town was ready to
try a new man.
