Legal Teuder.

We were mistaken in the state
ment in our last issue that silver
dollars are legal tender TO the
amount of five dollars only. We
were misled by the index to the
Coinage Laws of the United States
issued by the Treasury Department
last fall, as the only reference i'm tnat
index under Legal Tender" is TO
section 3,56S Of the Revised Statutes
TO which we referred. The statement
made by us applies to all silver issued
before the adoption of the Bland
Allison act of 1873, but that act made
the dollars coined under il a legal
tender TO any amount, and that part
of the act does not seem to have been
repealed or modified. Standard
dollars are a legal tender to any
amount; trade dollars up 10 five
dollars; half dollars to ten dollars;
quarter dollars to ten dollars; dimes
TO ten dollars: nickels and cent pieces
10 twenty-five cents.

Opinions differ, and not the least
difference Of opinion IS TO be found
with reference TO school laws and
school methods. There are those who
are ready to declare the recent law
recurring candidates for Office of
County Superintendent to pass an
examination. an obnoxious one, and
that ID should be repealed. But the
trainers of this law evidently thought
otherwise and there are multitudes OF
others like minded.
An ignOramus might visit school
and be able 10 tell whether or not the
teacher was keeping decent school,
but for County superintendent 10
perform faithfully and intelligently
All the functions of his office, he must
have some knowledge of the subjects
taughtan the best methods in use IN
the progressive schools OF the county.
There is no officer upon whom so
much depends for the rural schools as
upon the County Superintendent. III
his ideals are high and his theory OF
teaching i'm harmony withthe theories
of the foremost educators OF the
land. he can not fail 10 be a moving
force among the teachers ot on.
country schools.
The law passed by the Wisconsin
Legislature last wiz ter. appears TO be
a step in the right direction. 1t helps
to take this important Office out
the hands of every little politician
whose only claim to the office is his
ability TO command votes enough to
secure his election. 1t prevents the
possibility Of some political fayOrite
who has practically no knowledge OF
schools. being put over an intelligent
body OF teachers most of whom are
vastly his superiOrS.

The JOURNAL has taken occasion
heretofore to state its diSapprOval of
the enactment of the Law passed by
the late legislature for the appoint
ment of a deep waterway comm issiOn-
er. While we think the enactment
of any law of this character unjustify-
able as creating mere sinecure, that
is a reason which ought to have led to
its veto by the Governor but does not
Justify its notification after enact
nIent. Governor Upham, however,
apprDved of the enactment OF the bill
and made il a law. Now he says that
he will not appoint a commissioner.
Governor Upham differs from General
Grant who said that he would execute
all laws for he knew of no surer
method OF securing the repeal of a
bad law than to enforce it. by the
law referred to the governor is
authorized and instructed" TO make
this appointment. BY what authority
or rule of construction does the
Governor presume to nullify this law
at his own sweet will? What light
has dawned upon him since he signed
it? Ifit was good act to sign, il ought
to be a good law to execute. III ii is
so bad that il ought not TO be eXecut-
ed it would have been a good bill to
veto. The highest official of the state
ought to set a better exam pie than
thus TO trample under foot the very
laws he is sworn to execute.

While Secretary Morton has been
universally ridiculed for his statement
that dogs and wolves had seriously de-
pleted sheep i'm the country, dogs have
been the cause of a greater slaughter
of animals than is generally believed.
The statistics show an alarming de-
structiOn by these canine nuisances
In the state of Ohio alone dogs killed
10000 sheep in lS93-One year. And
that from 1880 to 1898 inclusive there
were 1903. 34S sheep killed by dogs, the
value of the sheep being 81 $4,000 and
that of the dogs a negative guam ~.
To this vast number of killed I'll re
were 325, $50 injured, valued 1T $642, UuO
making a total loss of sheep properlv
by dogs of 81, l0O,0 900, nearly. The agri-
cultural statistics of Ohio further
show that in 1898 there were in the
state l52, 7GI dogs and 100000 cows.
What cOmpensating advantage is
there in this vast number of dogs,
nine out of ten of which are insuffer-
able nuiSances?

The Supreme Court of Iowa has
settled an important question as to
the taxation of church property in
that State. One of the churches of
Des MOineS OWNS several lots i'm the
city, the rents and profits of which
are set apart for the enlargement Of
the church cdifice. These lots were
assessed and taxed and sold for taxes.
The church asked the court for an
injunction to restrain the issue of a
tax deed on the ground that il was
held exclusively for church purposes.
The Supreme Court holds that the
lots are subject t. taxation; that to
become exempt property must be
held for church purposes: that it
cannot be held in use to raise funds
for church purposes and that the
money obtained from such property is
taxable until t. has actually been
applied to church use or occupancy.
