A FAIR PROPOSAL.

The request which the nonstate colleges
make of the Legislature which will be
elected in November is that the members of
the Board of Education be appointed by
the Governor, as are the other boards. They
do not ask that these institutions shall be
deprived of the aid they receive from the
State; indeed, one Of the presidents of such
institutions, Mr. Butler. of Butler Col
lege, declares himself opposed to any inter-
ference with the state colleges. They sim
ply ask for fair play in the Board of Edu-
cation to the end that the graduates of
the nonstate colleges shall have equal
privileges with those of the state schools
when they ask to be employed as teachers
1t must strike the Independent observer
that this proposition is a fair one. There
is no reason why the Board of Education
should not be appointed as are other boards
by the Governor. There is no reason why
the superintendent of schools IN Indianapo-
lis, Fort Wayne and Evansville should be
members of the board because those are
the three largest cities. There is no reason
why the presidents of the three institutions
of the board while the presidents of the
other institutions are shut out. Every board
should be appointed by the Governor, and
particularly boards which deal with the
public school system of the State.
Attention is called to the proposition
made by the heads of the nonstate col
leges, because their position is misunder-
stood in that they are COMPOUNDED with a
considerable element which is fighting the
State University to the end that it may be
deprived of the aid which it receives from
the people. 1t is not the purpose of the
recognized leaders of the nonstate
schools to interfere with the revenues
which other institutions derive from the
State. All they ask is to be put upon an
equal footing with those institutions so far
as their graduates are concerned They are
not for war. but for peace on terms Of
equality.
TO the Journal it seems that this is a
most liberal proposition. and that any other
is unjust and is designed to make the state
schools which furnish teachers monopoly.

The cry for the repeal of the war tax has
been begun. but it cannot be done until
Congress- shall meet. In that connection it
is interesting to note the prediction that
the old, or Dingley. revenue law will show
an increase of $5O.OOO.OOO over its record, and
this prediction is made by paper which
has denounced it.. The Dingley law is a
revenue getter. but not to the extent pre-

There is little doubt that Congress will
soon provide for an increase of the regular
army. Recent events have shown the i'm
portance of being better prepared for war,
and besides the garrisoning of Cuba, Porto
Rico and perhaps the Philippines will give
employment to a considerable number of
troops fer some years to come. Military
authorities seem to be agreed that the army
should be increased to from $1,000 to 100000.
At present it's legal maximum on a war
basis is about $1,000 but this limit is not
nearly full. 1t is said the government will
have recruiting officers at all stations where
volunteers are mustered out with view of
giving them an opportunity to enlist in the
regular service. The opportunity is worth
considering. The term of enlistment is three
years, and for any young man who wants
benefits of athletic training and strict but
not severe discipline the time would not
be wasted. There is no probability of war,
but garrison service in Cuba and Porto
Rico will have its attractions in the winter
season, and before another summer the
troops will know how to take care of them
selves in a tropical climate. For young
men who have acquired a taste for army
life the regular army offers an opportunity
10 see the best side of it and serve the gov
eminent at the same time. AS the govern
ment really needs troops it's invitation to
enlist in the regular army is as much an
appeal TO patriotism as is call for volun-
teerS.
