pecial to the Indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
KNIGHTsTOwN, Ind, May 27-The CORE
spondent of the Sentinel at this place In
to-day q issue tries very hard to make polit-
ical capital out of the selection of o super.
intendent of the KniRhtstown schools. and
so tortures sentence in the remarks of the
president Of the school board. made at the
late commencement exercises, as to read:
While the schools have not been COM
plete success. they have not been al abso-
lutte failure" and claims that the presi-
dent. being the Republican nominee for the
State Senate. did not support Professor
Baker for superintendent, but did support
Professor Hewitt for that place for poIit-
zeal reasons. This is false. With one ex-
ception, Professor Hewitt has been selected
for the last twenty-three years as the su-
perintendent of the schools. and has given
the hest of satisfaction, building the schools
up until there is none better in the State.
This year. as in others. he WAS the
unanimous choice of the board: IN fact.
there was no other applicant. Prof. Baker
has been principal of the High-school
for the last five years. has given good sat-
isfaction. and If he desires to stay. it is
understood that he could still retain his
substantially say. among other things. on
the occasion mentioned. that this even
ing's exercise concludes the work of very
successful school year; that, as other
schools. 1t has not been perfect success,
neither has it been an absolute failure AS
to whether o school is success or a fail.
ure. Is largely y personal matter. 1t not
only requires ability and hard work on the
part of the teacher. but diligence on the
part OF the student and the good Will and
cooperation on the part Of the parent: and
unless these three work in harmony the
schools. so far as the individual pupil is
concerned, will be failure"
The statement that Mr. Hewitt was re-
tanned another year for political reasons
is simply absurd. nnd may sound
well to Democratic readers at O dis
tapce. but it will not pass current
here. where 1t is known that both Profess
sors Baker and Hewitt belong to the same
political party: in fact, politics have moth
ing to do with the schools, and should not
have. Mr.. Hewitt has been elected several
times when Democrats were on tho board,
as well as when it was composed of Repub-
llcans. In fact. he takes no part in po!i-
tics further than TO vote. He is fine
scholar. and his long services here have en-
deared him to the people. and the Sentinel
correspondent is untruthful in his state
menr that, after he has served the oity for
twenty-three years. he Is not the choice of
the patrons of the schools.

THE PLACE TO TEACH CITIZENSHIP
President tHarrison'sView of the Public Schools
and the Columbian Celebration.

BosToN. May GA letter from Washing
ton says: President Harrison gives his
support to the national Columbian public
school celebration which plans to give to
the public schools the leadership in all the
local celebrations of the four -hundredth
anniversary Of the discovery of America,
on Oct. 12. Among other words of COM
mendation, he said:
81 am much pleased with the plan as
presen ted in the public press for tho uni
versal observance of the four hundred th
anniversary of the discovery of America
by demonstrations in the public schools.
Properly conducted. such q course will be
instructive to the pupils. and will excite
in every city and village in the land an in
terest in the great anniversary. l am in
terested in all that pertains to the public
school, and like to see tho flag over the
school. Moreover. believe the observance
of these national anniversaries ana the
birthdays of great Americans by the pu-
pills in our schools is productive OF good.
The schools are the places where citizen
ship ought to be taught. They used to
think that all the schools had to do was TO
