EVENING SESSION

Very Interesting, and Resulted in a
Warm Debate on County Institutes.
The evening session was slow In get
ting started, and was opened by two
beautiful selections played by the WAX
do Mandolin and Guitar Quartette. az
ter which the teachers were extended
the welcome of the city of, Wheeling.

The address OF welcome In behalf OF
the board of education was made by
Mr.. John c. Riheldaffer, President ].
A. Jefferson being unable to be pres

duced himself by repeating the welcome
ascrlbe6 to an out-spoknH woman,
Make yourself ut home. for I'm at
home, and wish you all were. y" In ask
Ing the teachers TO strive for high

beginning thus: what do We plant
when we plant the tree?. We plant the
ship that crosses the sea-" etc. He
babe the teachers hearty welcome.
Superintendent ". H. Anderson ex-
tended welcome in behalf OF the
Wheeling teachers. The Wheeling
teachers have kindly feeling toward
the visitors, for "a fellow feeling makes
the world akin" Like the visitors the
Wheeling brethren have experienced the
trials and fluctuations OF q teacher;
have known the difficulties encountered
In getting positions; have known the
pugilist!c father and the unreasonIng
mother, and the other Ills that the
teacher Is heir to. ..s>F. 2
But there Is u bright side TO the
teachers life, and some rewards come.
The teacher Is pleased to shake the
hand OF n successful man, who as n
boy had beer a wayward pupil Then,
too, the teacher has his or her dreams.
They feel that they are the chosen
leaders, the members of the New Aris-
tocracy." Superintendent Anderson
said that the teachers come together
annually, spending probably months
salary in q self-sacrficirg spirit, and
by communion and exchange OF Ideas
and experiences give forth new light,
which Is beneficial In the work Of cle-
waiting mankind. After further re-
marks on the high calling Of n teach
or, Superintendent Anderson repeated
the hearty welcome to the visiting
teachers. HIS address was fiatteringly
received. 'sgs.1l 5,a e El's "a

Washington, Oct. 0-An Informal ses-
sion Of the cabinet was held to-day at the

NO PARTISAN POLITICS
PORTO RICANs DRAFT RECOMMEND
ATIONs TO CONGRESS.
They Demand Territorial Rights and the
Installation Of Regular Civil
Government.

San Juan de Porto Rico. Oct. 3o.-The
principal theater OF this city was taxed to
Its utmost capacity this afternoon on the
occasion OF a public meeting of delegates
from the chief towns of the island to con-
slider and draft recommendations regard
ing the necessities for the island for the
use Of the special commissioner who viii
be selected later to represent Porto Rico
at Washington when the time comes for
settling the administrative system.
The assembly was fairly representative,
and although the proceedings gave undue
prominence TO unimportant details. there
was abundant evidence OF INTEL gent re-
fiection on the part of the delegates and
OF a determination not 10 tolerate parti-
san politics at this crisis In the island 5
affairs.
Carefully prepared reports were submit
ted by the political. social and economical
committees. The meeting received with
enthusiasm the resolutions demanding ter
ritorial rights. the cessation of the pres
ent military rule and the installation OF
regular civil government.
Other resolutions were adopted asking
an eight-hour day law for the laboring
man and severely denouncing the present
corrupt system of registering deeds OF
land.
II was obvious that the delegates pro-
ceeded upon the assumption that the
United States would grant Porto Rico ter
ritorlal rights.
