Public School Matters.

Jefferson City, March 26th.-State
Superintendent Of Schools w. 7. Car
rington gave out the following, today,
concerning libraries, the observance Of
Arbor Day and other school matters:
"The annual school meetings to be
held April 4th, are very important to
all who want TO See our schools made
the very best possible. 1t Is hoped
that none but earnest advocates Of
good schools, will be elected directors.
The character Of the school depends
almost altogether on the board Of
directors. The people should vote
every cent Of tax asked for by a PAINS
taking, careful and economical boards.
The best in the school work Is the
cheapest, and the people must be will
ing to pay for the best before they can
get it. No school can accomplish
what It should without q small selection
Of choice books for supplementary
work, hence the necessity for the
annual school meetings TO authorize
the expenditure Of q small amount for
4 school library. The poorest distric,
10 the state can afford five dollars for
this purpose. It will prove .he best
Investment made.
''Section 500 Of the school law, sets
apart Friday, April 7, as Arbor Day
Every school should have some sort oil
exercises on this day and take some
steps toward identifying, not only tn,
school grounds, but the school rooms

SNAKE IN THE A

Democracy lifted Cleveland into the
presidential chair, and Cleveland pulled
one J. Sterling Morton from his we'll
meri,ed obsourity sud placed him upon
a pedestal. Cleveland betrayed demOc-
racy to defeat and the whole country is
now suffering from that betrayal. and
true progress has been set back a
quarter Of a century. ]. Sterling
Morton was 30 blinded by the glitter
of his greatness, as reflected from
Cleveland, that be even YET thinks the
earth trembles beneath his tread.
There is but one man greater than him
self, and that man is Cleveland.
j. Sterling Morton found a reporter
up in Nebraska City, Nebraska, a few
days ago, who had nothing to do, and
thus got himself interviewed. We do
not publish the interview because Of
any information therein, but merely TO
show the venom Of such small-bore
traitors. The interview is a special
telegram to the Republic, and Is as
follows:
In an interview issued today, j.
Sterling Morton, former secretary OF
agriculture, calls for a new party to

extravaganza in the expenditure Of

sents the discomfort in all parties. He
is an attractive exhorter.n
''Do you think the Bryan democracy
will control the next convention?"
ii did think so, but At times lately

seems to be u little letting down IN the

"What chance has the democratic
party Of winning?"

Manila, March % @ p. m.)-The
engineers are repairing the bridges, the
rebels having failed to destroy the
ironwork, and the railroad is kept busy
hurrying supplies to the front.
The country to Malolos is level, with
occasional streams and patches OF
wood, but there are no more jungles.
The American troops will advance
at daylight, taking four days ratiOns
with them and having 200 rounds OF
ammunition in their belts. They
expect to take BocAve, on the railroad
to the east Of Bulacsn, tomorrow. 1t
is 3 difficult position, protected BY
streams.
The American line is about 1900
yards from that Of the rebels. Desultory
shots were exchanged today.
The American reports show that
twenty men were killed and sixty-one
wounded on our side yesterday. The
Dakota regiment lost ten men killed
and twenty-seven wounded.
According to prisoners in the hands
of the Americans, Aguinaldo's generals,
Garcia. Tofreo and Pacheco, were with
the Filipino army yesterday and drove
their followers into the irst aggressive
demonstration. The rebels attempted
to charge across the plain east of the
railroad, bot the Americans charged to
meet them and the Filipinos bolted
after g few shots, leaving several men
killed on the field.
The Filipino prisoners further declare
that the rebels have lost all taste for
fighting and that their officers have to
keep them in line by beating them
with swords.
One OF the most brilliant and costly
achievements Of the campaign was the
charge Of Major Hownrd's battalion
across the river.
Advancing at the double quick they
found the river beneath them and
splssbiug across with a yell, swimming
and wsding, with bullets splattering in
the water, and rushed upon the rebel
trenches. Ten men were killed and
eleven were wounded In the charge.
Al the capture Of Manlso there were
several incidents showing the bravery
of our troops. Some filipinos were
iutrenched on an island 10 the bend OF
the river. The Americans approached
10 q triangular formation with the third
artillery in the apex and the Kansas
and Pennsylvania regiments forming
the sides. Colonel Funston called fol
volunteers to swim the river. Two
. men crossed under FIRE and secured
c materials with which 4 crossing wa
eventually effected.
