The Republic First.

Mr. EDITOR: The National campaign is
now scarcely thirty days off, and events
have begun to follow events with a light
tening-like rapidity. The Kaleidoscope of
National affairs change almost daily. The
passage of the Single Gold Standard bill
puts both the people and the government
absolutely under the thumb OF the National
Banks The Puerto Riean bill engrafts
Imperialism into our National Government
and makes it a fundamental principle of
our National law. The Marcnm-Hav dis
closures reveal the fact tl.at the Repu blican
party is operating under a secret alliance
with the Continental countrys of Europe
to first PROSTATE, and then to overthrow
our Republican form of Government
The issues of the coming National cam.
paign are fast shaping themselves, and it
has already become apparent that not the
least of these will be the maintaipance of a
Republican form of Government. Lincoln
stood for The Union frst,and for the settling
of the slave question afterwards. and il
now seems as though the Democratic marty
will have 10 be for the Republic first, and
for the settling Of other matters afterwards
The money question, the National Bank
issue, the Trusts, Expansion, public owner

ties, municipal operation of her street rail-
ways, bi-enDial sessions of the legislatures.
Initiative and referendum, certain necessary
reform 10 the selection 0fcourt officials and

vast importance pressing hard for solution,
and must be met and settled in the no
distant future. But for the present, they

Eldridge was unfortunate in the date 0

and the Township Caucus is not to b.
slighted for school meetings.

proposed school law, known as Senate bill

posed basis of appropriations, consolidation
of schools and transportation OF pupils, and
method of choosing Boards of Education 10
municipalities divided into Wards.
He said that under the present system

school was greater than In the towns,
and results were not so good. He
asserted that the scheme of con.
solidatiDg districts and transporting chill
dren was economical from financial stand.
point, and gave the children Of rural dis.
tricss the advantages of the graded school
Wherever the plan of transporting children
had been tried, it commended itself to all
interested
As 10 the old method of basing a.pro-
priations on the census of children between
5 and IS years of age, he said great abuses
had crept in. Ia many districts the census
was padded to an extent that fraudulent
names to the number of at least so 600 had
been returned. Under the new law the
will be made by the total
days attendance, which makes it compul-
sorry education law in the sense that ii
places a premium on attendance, and the
districts will get money for the children
they are educating.
The features of the new law by which
members of the Board of Education will be
elected at the annual municipal election, he
said was source of wide difference in the
that prepared the law, and that
difference was not yet reconciled. He was
of the opiu on that if the bill became law,
that proposition would be eliminated, and
the appointive system substituted = ap-
