NOTED Plan Now In Operation.
A number of promotions have been
made III the Public Schools. These
promotions cane at the end of the
first half year but they are not the
''half yearly promotions. They are
made in accordance with policy that
has been adopted Of promoting the
children whenever they are ready for
the step without waiting for any ar
bitrary division Of oime
The school has been divided into a
great number OF grades. Ia many
schools there are but twelve grades
before the High School is reached.
This results In many of the brighter
or more studious children being held
back by those who cannot or will not
advance too rapidly.
In the Morgantown Schools there
are forty one grades before the High
School is reached. AS fast as pupil
shows that he can stand It in a higher
grade he is put into that and the
steps are very close together. Conse-
quently the promotions can come fire.
quently and they have been made of
ten during the past few months in
individual cases. This time there are
more children affected and the event
has made quite stir in school circles.
The idea that the superintendent
and teachers are working under is to
promote each child as fast as II can
do the work and to get it along as rap
idly as its aptitude and application
demands that it be advanced The
system has worked splendidly and
has resulted in great stimulus to all
the pupils.
The promotions that have been an
nounced 30 take. effect on Monday

A SAMPLE REPUBLICAN FRAUD.

All the world knows that the decent
Republicans, the business men who are
in favor of reform and the straight
out Democrats in Philadelphia, have
organized to overthrow the Republican
ring in that city. The ring is fighting
desperately to prevent defeat, and as a
means to that end have concocted a
bogus ticket under the name of the
Bryan party" the object being 10
draw off Democratic votes from the
main issue. In pursuance of this idea
petition was gotten up and sent to
Harrisburg, purporting to be signed
by three thousand Philadelphia voters,
but glance at the list shows that it is
almost wholly bogus. Nearly all the
alleged signatures are forged, there
being blocks of hundreds upon hun
dreds written by the same hand and
instead of the place of residence re-
quired by law, the word philadelphia"
is simply set down at the beginning Of
the pages and ditto marks CO placed
under that word, after each name.
And the worst Of it all is, that ap-
pended to the paper is an affidavit
certifying over the signatures of five
persons that each man whose name
appears signed separately and indi-
vidually. The whole thing is a pal
pable fraud, and in line with the repu-
tation Philadelphia Republicans have
had for rascality and an INSCRIPTIONS
determination to win at whatever
hazard. The Republican gang in Phil
adelphia and Pennsylvania generally is
not much worse than the average party
ringsters, but it is decidedly more dar-
Ing and has no regard whatever for
public sentiment or common deceney.

and regulars. under orders from Ma
poleon the Little, oserawed Paris, with
its million and half Of people, and
turned all OF France from republic to
an empire. In many American cities
and towns one or two companies OF
troops have, in the recent past, taken
charge of the polls and intimidated
hundreds and thousands from express
ing their free and honest opinion.
A regular army Of 100000 men, such
as is proposed by, and estimated for, by
the present administration, is unneces-
sary, costly, dangerous, and. more than
all, is but the thin edge of the wedge.
1t was an easy step from $4,000 men to
10000. How easy would it be, with Re-
publican success. to jump from 100000
to a quarter of million? Vote against
the party and policy which stands for
more soldiers. More soldiers mean high
taxes and danger.

I'VE are perfectly willing to offer sim
cere condolences to those local Repub-
licans who feel sore over the fact that
the Roosevelt street parade didn't break
all records. They certainly went to
enough trouble and expense, and the
disappointment is probably keen. But
that will wear off after awhile. They
may have better luck in some other
year, when their policies and candidates
are more to the public liking.

Chicago Chronicle.


What do you believe would be the re-
suit if the government purchased all the
property of the friars and used the rev.
enues to create public fund for the fur
thering of public instruction in the isl
ands?"
Mr.. McKinley's commissioners in the
Philippines have sent aut this question in
the islands. They have doubtless arrang-
ed in advance for the right answer.
Thus private exploitation of the islands
is to begin. The government of the United
States is to go into the real estate and
renting business. That the lands will be
obtained by Republican trusts for the
cheap manufacture of commodities tc
come into competition with American la
Dor is the unquestionable programme.
Some of our imperialists will thus in q
short time become possessed of princely
colonial estates.

FoOLIsHNEss FROM ATKINSON.

Pittsburg Dispatch Republican,
The published assertion of Governor
Atkinson, of West Virginia, that the
trial for the Goebel murder in Ken
lucky is "the hanging of men without
due process of law" with limitations
Of 'bloodshed" on account of it. is
lacking alike in accuracy and good
judgment.
1t is always a sign of poor judgment
in any man, much more in the Gov
ernor of State. to threaten blood
shed, and it is especially poor judg-
ment for a Republican campaigner TO
indulge in that talk in behalf of men
tried for notorious act of political
assassination. Moreover, there is a
distinct want of veracity in the asser-
ton that the convictions are without
due process of law. If they We're it
would be the duty of the United States
Supreme Court to set them aside. The
fact is. we believe, that the highest
tribunal of the land has passed upon
the first conviction as having been
made in accordance with the due pro-
cess of law.
There is no dispute that Goebel was
shot; that 1t was not the result of an
accident, and that the supporters of
Governor Taylor, in the State House at
the time, were in position to know
who did it. If they could prove that
anyone did it other than those charged
with the offense they have had ample
opportunity to produce the evidence.
1t would be calamity to the Republic
can party to have it saddled with the
character of upholdlng immunity for
political assassination. The party
cannot be loaded with that burden,
even though hot-heads like Atkinson
do their umost toward it.

A LARGE ARMY DANGERors

About once per day you see in some
Republican paper the statement that
one soldier per 1000 of population can
not be menace to the people of this
country The assertion is a false one.
A disciplined army is and always has
been a menace. Soldiers, armed. paid.
and taught to obey orders, have domin-
ated all countries in all times. The Ro-
man Legions ruled Rome, and made and
unmade Emperors at their pleasure. A
few thousand French under Napoleon
overran Italy. The military force of
France ruled the whole of Europe for
practically twenty years. In Germany
and France, and Italy, to-day, the sold
Ter is supreme. He rules Africa, Asia,
Europe and the islands Of the sea.
Three thousand National Guards were
sent to the anthracite regions of Penn
sylvania only two weeks ago to con-
troll and intimidate 10000 strikers. A
strong regiment of regulars can run a
city of 10000 people in whatever direc-
ton their officers please. Victor Hugo

M'KINLEY, THE CONTORTIONIsT.

ply an assertion But how about MI
Mckinley? Isn't he the champion con-
tortionist Of the nineteenth century
He was in favor of silver a few years
ago, before Mark Hanna took him up
paid his debts and ran him for the
Presidency Now he's for gold. He
had a plain duty" to perform in
Porto Rico, but he turned tail and
caused tax to be placed upon both
the imports and exports of that Is
land, to and from the remainder of the
United States He thought the Porto
Ricans ought to be free American citi-
zens, but he gave them Roman pro
consular government, in which they
have no voice, and disfranchised SO
per cent. of the voters through an edu-
cational requirement He is opposed
to hauling down the American flag
and hauled it down in Alaska at the
behest of Great Britain He was once
opposed to permanently holding the
Philippines, and now he is in favor OF
unlimited warfare and the sacrifice OF
the lives of many thousands of young
men, that they may be held perma-
nently. Lest this be doubted, we
quote Senator Foraker:
Il do mot understand anybody to be
proposing to take the Philippine Is
lands with the idea and view of per-
manently holding them; the President
of the United States does not, know,
and no Senator has made any such
statement"
Other instances might be cited.
When it comes to "squirming," Will
liam Mckinley, of Canton, o., by the
grace of Mark A. Hanna, President OF
the United States, wears the belt and
is entitled to all prizes. He is incon-
sistency personified, and the modern

SPOT ILLEGAL VOTERS.

The Republican plans to vote thous-
ands of unlawful ballots in West Vir-
Sinia have been contaminated. All the
arrangements have been made, the men
are in the State, and the price has either
been paid or guaranteed.
Let Democrats, and all good citizens,
combine to spot these illegal voters. Ev-
cry unlawful voter should be care
fully watched and promptly ar
rested, and when arrested, let him
be prosecuted to the full extent
of the law, and aside and beyond
that duty, get after the men who are
aiding and abetting this crime against
the ballot. Somebody high in Republic
can circles is pulling the strings and
paying the freight" Catch him, if
possible, and never let up on him until
he Is landed within the walls of the Len
itentiary. Especial vigilance is neces-
sary Let the word go throughout the
State-to every county and every dis
trict, and election precinct-look out
for unlawful votes. Keep tab on stran-
gers, and see that those not entitled to
cast ballot are placed under arrest as
soon as they appear at the polls,
Every fraudulent vote nullifies the
ballot of an honest citizen. Every
voter is interested in an honest vote.
