schools, but Would Improve Them.
Stanwood. Dec. 6, 1894
To the Editor: Some time ago wrote
Intelligencer concerning Rev. Joergenson,
the popuIist candidate for representative
from Snohomtsh county. stating that he
was an enemy to the public schools and
gave my reasons Tor sAe statement In
justice to Mr. Joergenson I wish TO say
that in Q recent conversation with him
he declared that he was not now and
never has been an enemy TO the public
school system That. on the contrary, he
believes that II is one of the most impor-
tant institutions In our government and
Is created by the constitution which be
mas sworn to support. hence he
could not oppose the public
school system without opposing the
constitution. Yet he believes that
mental and moral training is necessary
to develop the highest type OF American
citizenship, and the public schools as at
present conducted only partly accom-
piishes the purpose.
Mr.. Joergenson informs me that my
statement concerning his attitude toward
the public schools defeated his election
and lowered his standing In the commu-
nifty While do not regret his defeat
I DO sincerely regret that anything /
have said should have been construed
into a reflection upon his private char
acter. which 1 have always held, and
stu hold, in the highest estimation
