H. M. Wilcox, who for the past TWO
years has filled the Office Of county SUPER
intendent of schools for Hennepin county,
is candidate for reelection.
Mr.. Wilcox's home is at Richfield, six
miles south of Minneapolis, where he has
lived ever since he came to the state
twenty years ago, and all Of this time he
has been connected with country school
work as teacher, assistant superintend-
ent and county superintendent of this
county. He is thoroughly acquainted
with the work, and has been instrument
al in raising the standard of the country
schools in a marked degree.
The election of county Superintendent
belongs to the country alone, the city
having no part in his election.
Mr., Wilcox's experience in the country
school work makes him particularly well
qualified for the position. During the
past two years he has arranged course
Of study for grading the schools, based
upon the requirements Of the state high
high school board. At his request the
state examinations have been extended
to the country, and 40 certificates have
been granted to the pupils. He has also
introduced classification registers into
the schools. These registers make
record Of each pupils work and standing
SO that the work Of every child in the
country may readily be found at any
time by the teacher engaging the school.
The teachers associations too have been
made much more helpful than ever be-
fore. A two years. course in psychology
and methods has been pursued by the
ceachers with direct reference to practi-
cal school room work. Prominent edu-
Gators have been engaged to lecture be-
fore the teachers at each meeting; and
class exercises, discussions, and papers
upon school management have been ar
ranged. making the association q practi-
cal working school of instruction in
method for the teachers of Hennepin
county.
Mr.. Wilcox's experience and faithful
work in the Office antilles him to re-
election, and it would be very unwise to
make change when his plans are SO we'll
arranged for carrying on the work he has
already so we'll begun.

There were men working on the new
state capitol this past summer at st. Paul
for IL cents an hour for day Of hours,
and section hands have been receiving 80
cents day. There are in st. Paul over
so, 900 persons who have not more than
95 cents week to live onto purchase
every article necessary, rent included. In
such a condition of affairs why was it
necessary to send a labor committee from
Chicago to Mexico to find out how the
poor Of that country get along. This
committee writes shuddering tales Of
low wages in Mexico. Why didn't they
deal with the low wages In their own city
first before going abroad into country
where a man can buy vastly more of the
necessaries of life for the same amount
of money that he can in this country7

Down in the Seventh ward there is z
lively contest on for alderman, between
Oscar H. Shepley and ex-Alderman w. =,
woodward. The voters and tax payers
Of that ward have now an opportunity OF
getting just such a man for the place as
they have been loudly calling for, In the
person Of Mr.. Shepley, and they will
make no mistake If at this time all other
issues are put aside save that Of al
around fitness for such an Important
Office, and the voters rally to his sup
port. Mr.. shepley, who has been nomi-
mated by the Democrats, Populists, and
Endorsed by the Good Government
League, is a man of unimpeachable In.
tegrity, who ii elected, would look out
solely for the best interests Of the tax
payers. He has resided in that ward 81
years, his father in 1855 having COM
menced farming where the family resi-
dence now stands Mr.. Shepley is self
made man. starting out In life as an
humble employee of an express company,
he advanced step by step until he &C.
cured the position some years ago OF
manager of the Northern Pacific Express
Company's business In this city. He .is
also a member OF the G.: A. R., having
served his country for three years dur
ing the rebellion. With q record such as
the foregoing there should be no room
for doubt in the minds of the voters as
to their choice for alderman Of the Sew
