Mr.. A. B. SIade Elected Superintendent of

Mr.. A. B, Slade left last week for
Cedartown, where he went to accept
the position of superintendent of the
water and light system of that city. In
noting Mr.. SHADES election by the
council of Cedartown the Standard

several years experience, and recently
resigned the position of city electri-

ing to north Georgia. He comes with

figures as heretofore paid-$1 per

1t was with regret that the CITY

Mr.. Slade some months ago, for his

him as a citizen of Dawson, will be

REPORTS received daily by the
local committees OF Chicago in charge

ing quadrennial meeting of the gen.
eral conference of the Methodist church
indicate that it will be the largest as
we'll as the most important gathering
of it's kind ever held. The general
conference is the ruling body of the
Methodist episcopal church through
out the world and as such It's delibera-
tions and decisions are of the deepest
interest to the members of that den
omination everywhere. The adoption
of the organic law or constitution of
the church, as modified and rearranged
by the commission appointed for the
purpose in 1897. promises to evoke
some very heated discussions this
year. Another i'm por tant matter to be
acted upon by the conference is the
proposition to shorten the bishops
term of office to eight or even four
years. An interesting feature of the
great gathering will be the anniver-
cary celebrations of the various bene-

The extent to which the college

of more or lees import to the well-be-

Now, in it's turn, the college has been
calling upon the services of prominent
men of busin ess to supplement by prac-
tical lessons the theoretical teachings
of the books. 1t remained for Cornell
university to be the pioneer in this
promising educ alton al movement, that
institution having engaged the presi

lectures upon the actual side OF this
attractive and absorbing branch OF
trade.
AS the elements of success may be
considered az best represented by a
good practical knowledge of things
tirmy build upon the best theories, it
would seem the Cornell plan OF instruc-
tion, has great deal to commend it..
One of the reproaches often cast upon
the college professor and his views is
that they are both without that quality
which can only be CLEANED from real
business experience, and this defect,
so far as it can, the new Cornell plan
will doubtless do much to remove.

STUDY OF LANGUAGES.

The increased knowledge of the Eng

last few years is remarkable. The
Mexican Herald is authority for the
statement that no establishment of any
size attempts to do business without
English speaking clerks and corre-
spondents. English is now neces-
sity to the prominent professional men
whose practice extends to large pro-
portion of the important foreign re-
sidents of that cosmopolitan old city
and English newspapers and magazines
are read by large proportion OF the
refined and educated native citizens.
The study of English in Mexico is one
of the important things that is assist

in which Spanish is being studied by

Naturally, since the acquisition of
Spanish speaking dependencies, this

alone due to the relations with Mexico,

this direction.

openings at good salaries today both in
the employ of the government at home
and abroad, and in commercial lines.

THE scope of the Porto Rico bill can
only be finally determined by the
supreme court of the United States.
The bill. it is admitted by it's authors,
would not survive q decision by the
supreme court declaring Porto Rico an
integral part of the United States and
consequently subject to the provisions
of the constitution. 1t should be borne
in mind that President Mckinley in
his December message distinctly re-
commended that free trade should be
established between Porto Rico and
the United States proper. he made
no constitutional argument in support
of his recommendation, leaving that
duty to the supreme court. The in
timation that he would not veto q bill
imposing duties on the exchange of
products between the United States
and its newly acquired territory is
doubtless based upon the presidents
