Wise Action.

The recommendations Of Supt.
Smith regarding school teachers for
the coming year leave no room for crit
icism from those parents who have
shown a natural interest In the matter,
and VINO have been concerned lest some
Of the teachers should be removed ON
other grounds than merit and eff
cheney. That there may have
been reasons sufficient to justify
the superintendent in suggesting
reasSignqnent of certain teachers
cannot have escaped the atten-
ton of these impartial citizens who
have investigated the matter from
every point OF view. But he has acted
wisely, perhaps magnanimously, in de-
ferring to the expressed sentiment that
changes such as were apprehended
might work injury to the schools In
that they would seem to have been
made on personal grounds rather than
On grounds of ascertained fitness and
capacity.
We have no doubt Supt. Smiths ac-
ton will NEE. with general approval.
1t will certainly strengthen him with
those who are disposed to aid an adj
ninistration that at the very outset in
vites confidence by it's desire to de-
serve it.

Four Wars in a Century.

Mrs. A. C. Corkin who lives the shores
of Lake Champlain, has made flags for four
American wars, viz, fer the w2r Of 1872, the
Mexican war; the Rebellion and tae present
conflict with Spain. She was born in 1884, and
when a mere slip of a girl watched from The
top of her fathers barn the famous battle n
which Ethan Allen squared accounts with
the British forces and American grit won the
day. The flag carried by AL ms bluecoats
was made by the women of the countryside,
and Mrs. Corkins tiny fingers helped sew
the banner which led tie boys to the fray.
The iercest part OF the struggle took place
only a short distance from her home ar
Piattsburg and big cannon ball sailed into
the yard and the grass and dirt 1t plow
up were thrown the stable roof where she
and her sister were sitting, terrifying them
so that they were glad to hide away in tn
home cellar until, the last echoes of the batle
died away.
Again in 1913, while the war with Mexico
was in progress, Mrs. Corkin eided in max
ing flags for the United States troops, and
during the civil war helped supply two r, G.
iments with full stands of colors. When
Lafayette visited the battle fields of the two
great wars for American independence he
was the guest of Mrs. Cerhin's mother and
partook of dinner at their house on the night
OF the battle at Rouse's Point
Though ga years OF age, she Is hale an /
hearty, and route to Michigan she stopped
in Cincinnati to visit her son, who has q
large embroidery store. Having received a
rush order for some handsome banners,
Grandma Corkin rendered her services IN j

shares. 1t was noted in these columns over
a fortnight ago that dividend of 81 per
cent in stock of the Seattle G. Montana r.il-
road had been declared upon the Great Ncrth-
crn preferred stock In carrying out TIE
present arrangement it is proposed by the
Great Northern to purchase the Seattle &
Montana stock, amounting to S12, 500 900 in all
from the Great Northern stockholders, paying
80 per cent of the face value thereof. which in
, carrying cut the subscription for the 100 per
cent OF new stock is equivalent to credt.ng
the present stockholders with 10 per cent OF
the subscription price and making 1t est
them only SEQ per share.
This dsposes of slOO00.t0o of the nominal
proceeds of the stock. The remaining

a similar amount of the Pacific extension

the collateral trust issue, but will now be
freed and returned to the Great Nnrthern
treasury. In this respect as in others, the
pending deal agrees with previous antici-
patton. and seems to have been the
means finally adopted for permitting the
present stockholders in TIE Great North-

Light at Last.

The authorities were presented with
@ plan yesterday whereby the old mar
ket house may Ee utilized for revenue
the public library. The library must
be moved from it's present quarters in
the court house in a few months. 1t
must have a habitation somewhere, if
st. Paul is to be Classed among mod
ern cities. The plan submitted by Mr..
FeldhauSer and his associates merits
consideration. In brief it involves the
remodeling of the market house, where
by the revenues derived from a num-
Der of stores on the ground floor shall
be diverted to the uses Of the library
and the requirement in time of fund
for permanent library building which
shall be credit to the city.
In this remodeled structure the Ii
brary is to have it's home, in we'll
lighted, airy and commodious apart
ments, easy of access to the public
and provided with every comfort In
der the same roof will be provided a
large hall for manufacturers exhibits
and a hall for the use of public gath
erings.
The plan in it's entirety represents
progressivism-a desire to do some
thing for St. Pauls shortcoming in
failing to furnish it's citizens with ade-
Quate library facilities. It's critics
must make very strong case if they
desire to array any considerable body
Of the public against it.

CHANGE IN TEXT BOOKS.

School Board Committee RECON-
mends Some New Books for Use.
The text book committee of the schol
board yesterday made its report, recommend
ing few changes in the present system of
text books in vogue n the public schools.
TIE list was prepared with the assistance CT
Supt. Smith.
The list recommended is as follows:
Harpers' Readers, first TO fifth Harp rs
School Geography; Rodway's Elementary
Geography, natural; McMaster's United Sta es
History; Metcalf's Oglish Grammar; Ne
calf ard Brigbt's Language Lessons, first al d

Books, one to six. on recommendation Of NJ
Bond; and the drawing foios, composition
folios and tablets now in use.
This report was adopted by the majority OF
the text book committee signed by L. I. Nay
and E. o. Zimmerman. The IN ncri,y report
by ]. w. L. Corning does not propose any
substitutes for these books. hut urges de sv
unit the board can be better acquairt d wi h
the proposition. After a debate it was votei
to POSTPONE action, with the Understanding
that nothing should lie dome without e
presence of the whole board

qualified. The board chose one who
had served neither his country in war
nor the board in peace. Mortensen
brought mandamus and got judgment.
The president of the board Of public
works requests the corporation attor-
ney to appeal to the supreme court in a
letter In which he says that, eff this
board is to conduct the details of this
office under the Immediate supervision
of the district court, it will seriously
impede the work Of this board"
AS we said. tbs case presents two
phases. The act of 1887, the Preference
to Soldiers act, was enacted by a Re-
publican legislature to give evidence, in
a practical manner, Of the love and af-
lection of that party for the old soldier
No one supposes for a moment that it
had any purpose so base as the coddling
of the old soldiers for the purpose of
securing their votes for that party. 1t
was piece of pure, heartfelt, unselfish
gratitude. Old soldiers so accepted it
and voted, naturally with the party
that was so solicitous for their COM
fort Mr.. Copeland. president of the
board of public works, and a majority
OF the board are Republicans, heartily
in accord with the paternal, fraternal
and eternal zeal Of their party for the
old soldiers-and their ballots. But,
when 1t comes to the question Of put
ting this law into practical operation;
when the selection of a clerk lies be-
tween properly qualified" old soldier
and a young man with pull, the SEN
timent evaporates and practical politics
comes into play. The man with the pull
wins. That is one phase Of the case,
what we may call the hypocritical
phase.
Another is the singular misconception
Of President Copeland as to who or
what it is that is interfering with the
work and methods Of his board. He
evidently thinks it is the district court.
But it is not; it is the statute, for the
enactment of which he should blame
his party, if blame attaches, and not
the judge. All that official could do
was to apply the law to the case; not
to make the law. Courts could not in
terfere with his board if the law did
not require them to. The court seems
to have done it's duty because Mr..
Copeland's board did not do it's. In
this letter the president or the board
says that cit will be difficult for this
board to attend to it's business prop
erly, and as the law requires, if it has
no right to refuse to employ incom-
petent servants" But whether Morten-
sen was competent or not was an issua-
BILE fact, to be established before the
court and determined by it upon the
evidence. Assuming that the board in
it's answer raised that issue, it is ap
parent that the court found against it;
found Mortensen competent, as the
Preference act stipulates. So it all
comes back to this, that the district
court is not supervising the boards
work, but merely obliging it to be done
according to the law. Mr.. Copeland
should swear at the legislature, not the
court.

DOESN'T CALL FOR MUSIC
PARK BOARDS CONTRACT WITH
THE STREET RAILWAY

The Members Of the Board Wan. to
Knew why There Has Ecen no
Ennd at Como for Three Sunday $
and Find an Explanation Which
They Think Was Simply Mis-
take.
The park board discussed the failure of the
street railway company to furnish music at
Como park the last two Sundays at is meet
ing last evening.
Coz. Newport, who is a new member of the
board, asked to the contract The board
has with the street railway company. The
agreement was produced By the secretary and
when it Nns examined q reason was found
fer the failure 10 have bard concerts. When
the agreement was drawn there was a clause
which provided that the street car Company
was to expend $500 per season for period
of three years in providing musical att-ac-
tons at the park.
The draft of the agreement sent down by
the street railway company for the signature
of the officials of the park board was minus
one or two minor provisions, and Presid Mt
Wheeiock returned it for correction. When
1t sent back Mr.. Wheelock looked to
see il the corrections had been made, and
finding they were inserted signed the docu-
ment.
Upon examining the agreement last even
ing it was found the cause requiring the
company to furnish $3.50 worth of musical
attractions each season had been eft out of
the contract President Whee,ock was of
the opinion that the mistake had been made
in copying the agreement, and the other
members of the board concurred in this ex-
planation.
A resolution was adoIt d cllirg the at
tention Of the company to the failure t D
provide music the. last two Sundays, and
directing that band concerts be given next
Sunday afternoon ard evening.
