THE YOUNG IAN.

Reiteration of the stale and untrue
assertion that this country NJ longer
affords the young man clan te grows
tiresome. There is absolutely nothing
for it to rest upon. 1t is tie utter
ance OF prejudice, ignorance, and
could come only from one in mental
darkness.
The country is developing as never
before in its history. There are great
industrial institutions, and in the
shadow OF these the timid shrink with
cries of alarm. But it takes men to
run these concerns and the men now
at the head OF them are not immortal.
Young men are being trained up to
take the places that must be vacant.
There is as much demand as ever for
strength, skill and energy. The re-
ward offered is as great or greater
Before fainting in the presence OF the
steel combination it is well to remem-
Der that President Schwab, with his
millions and his princely salary, is
but SO years OF age, and that when he
went to work for Carnegie lie was
glad to accept the wage OF dollar II
day. The future president OF the same
institution may now be wheeling
black sand in the foundry. The new
president OF the Burlington began his
railroad career as an office boy, and he
is still in his prime. The first railway
duty OF the new president OF the
Southern Pacific with an income
greater than that of the federal exc
cutive, was the twisting OF brakes on
a freight train. His successor may
this moment be throwing switch in
the yard of some way-stafion.
Some pessimists go so far as to say
that professional men feel the Incubus
OF the trust and that lawyers not able
to command position with some
concern OF magnitude will be forced
into some other lines of endeavor.
Such talk is merely silly, and with the
present pressure on space there is not
the slightest impulse to reply to it.
The young men OF the United States
have every reason to feel encouraged
to put forth new efforts. 1t is beyond
all human ability to form monopoly
in brains.

The bill amending the school law,
which was approved by the governor
on March !, contains an emergency
clause, and it therefore changes this
year the day of election OF school dir
ectors in each district of the state
from the second Saturday in June to
the second Saturday in May--one
month earlier. This brings the school
election this year on May IL. The
new directors take office on the first
Monday in June. The new law con-
tains an amendment which is impor
tant. The change is the taking away
of the, retiring board the power to
elect the teachers for the following
year. In a great many districts where
there are graded schools it is custom
airy for the board to elect teachers
early in the spring for the next year.
The new law provides that "no board
of directors shall, before the first Mon
day in June hire any teacher or
teachers whose term OF teaching does
not commence prior to the first Mon
day in August" AS the newly elect
ed director or directors begin their
term OF Office on the first Monday.in
