The Milwaukee Sentinel ls taking an
advanced position in the matter of local
politics. 1t advises voters not TO return
certain persons to the city council be-
cause of their course on certain public
questions. A majority of the alderman
thus tabooed are republicans. This fact
is mentioned only for the purpose of
showing that The Sentinel Is earnest in
its plea for reform. A rascal loses none
OF his characteristics because of the par.
ty faith he entertains, and newspapers
which recognize this fact are doing the
public q service.

THIs flag business for school buildings
is silly piece of business, anyway, and
often furnishes an opportunity for an ex-
hibition of petty partlsanship. Such an
exhibition was made on the fourth of
March in school in Green county. The
flag was kept at half mast during the
forenoon, but in the afternoon it was
flung to the breeze from the top of the
pole. 1t Is to be hoped the name of that
teacher will never be made public. He is
loo small for censnre.

The Grand Army is finding some fault
with school histories on the ground that
they do not teach patriotism. The Grand
Army is an Organization which every one
respects, but this respect will not secure
1t immunity from criticism for iuterfer-
ence In matters foreign to the purpose of
its institution. 1t has no charter to de-
clare what patriotism is even though it
could define that term to nicely, of
which it Is permissible to have come
doubt. School histories are to give facts
only and are not designed to pronounce
eulogies. The facts, of course, should be
presented in attractive manner. The in
telligence of the pupil will lead to patrl-
otto thoughts and feelings. Patriotism
which is manufactured is not a good thing
to rely on. 1t is a growth and the soil on
which 1T prospers is not laadation,

Twill not suffice TO hatter HIM at all,

Less careth he for self than others grace
Judgment Of fine quality he hath shown
Resisting wrong the seed OF right hath

True manhood is what he exemplihes,
High his every aim, and he will ere he

Establish truths now for the nunce de-

In spite Of all while wrong is justified.
Nations we know are not born in day,
Though shorter time has marked q
worlds decay
"Ring on the changes Thus our hero

Ever alert, thus he always fights
Protecting those who can't themselves
