There is reason to suspect that
Senator Hanna's interest in the sena-
torial matter in Nebraska is not due
solely to a pbilanthroPic desire to
have the state well represented in the
senate. There is the ship subsidy
scheme which is coming up again, and
the senator would probably not be
averse TO having support from the Me-

A GREAT CHURCH CONVENTION

The first twentieth century missionary
convention Of the Church, or Disciples, of
Christ begins in Minneapolis tonight.
This convention Is the nearest approach
to anything in the way of general gov
ernmental machinery this interesting
Christian body has; its efforts to realize
its conception Of the church of Christ in
fact as well as name, making it take the
extreme congregational form Of Christian
cooperation. Hence it has no authori-
tative central body corresponding to the
general conventions Of the other Protes-
tant churches. But as the missionary
convention Is the one time and place at
which the Disciples wherever they may
be can meet and take strength and en-
couragement from association and per-
sonal contact, this convention is, viewed
from the standpoint Of the disinterested
public, the equivalent of the general con-
ventions Of other religious bodies
Owing to the fact that the Church Of
Christ Is not 30 strong in the northwest
as in the middle and southern states, the
people Of Minneapolis may hardly appre-
ciate the magnitude of this Christian
brotherhood. 1t has grown far more rap
idly in the last decade than any other
Christian body in this country. and now
claims a membership of 100000, which
makes 1t, undoubtedly, one of the major
religious bodies of the country.
The Disciples Of Christ represent an
effort at Christian unity, first preached
in Pennsylvania In the latter part of the
eighteenth century by Thomas Campbell,
an emigrant from the north Of Ireland
The idea was taken up by his more gifted
and better-trained son. Alexander, who
Is generally regarded as the founder Of
the denomination. 1t was at first the in
tentlon merely to leaven existing sects
with the idea Of the attainment Of Chris
tian unity through strict adherence to
primitive Christianity as expressed in
the phrase: "Where the Bible speaks
we speak; where the Bible is silent we
are silent" But the active opposition
encountered to work within existing
churches enforced the organization of the
first separate church in 1911. Thence
forth 1t was the hope of the Disciples that
Christianity might find their simple or
ganization and simple creed Of Jesus
Christ as the Son Of the Living God and
the Savior the medium Of ultimate union.
They feel that the New Testament is the
foundation of Christianity and that the
organization which in polity and doctrine
adheres faithfully to the teaching of that
testament affords the best common ground
for the divided church At the same time
the Disciples of Christ are essentially toll
Grant and Sympathetic with Christianity
whatever its denomination. 1t has. thus,
a peculiar appeal to large numbers Of

returned to his own country at the ex-
pense OF the vessel bringing him over.
The immigrant has the right OF appeal to
the secretary of the treasury. The bill
also provides for immigration agents to go
abroad and make Investigations as to the
character OF intended immigrants.
Apparently this bill might prove effect
I've In practice. 1t is very desirable to
filter the immigration coming to our
shores, but it may be remembered that
the three assassinations OF our presidents
and the attempt to assassinate President
jackson were not the work of alien immi-
grants, but of persons born in this coun-
try. Our danger does not come altogether
from abroad, but largely from the utter
ances of a portion of the American press,
is not necessarily the producer of anar-
chists, for the most active anarchists can
read and write and run newspapers. The
inference is that, while all practical
means to exclude the anarchist brood
from immigrants landing on our shores
should be adopted, the greatest safety lies
in the proper education of children and
youth under twenty years Of age, that
they may be deeply rooted and grounded
In the creed and practice of good citizen
ship.

Minneapolis bank deposits now amount
to $4S, ,OOO, 900, being an increase of nearly
81, 900 900 in eight months. This remark
able increase reflects local prosperity, as
well as the growing recognition of Mime
apolis as the commercial capital Of the
northwest, position formerly held by st.
Paul. A considerable portion of the in
crease in deposits is due to the accounts
of country banks. AS showing the differ
ence between the two cities in respect to
financial strength, the fact that the Min
neapolis bank deposits are $4S,OO0,OOO as
against $23, ,OOO, 900 for st. Paul is signifi-
cant. That the tendency is to increase
this already pronounced difference is
shown by the fact that while the Mime
apolis banks have been increasing their
deposits almost $7,OOO.OOO, St. Paul has
augmented its less than $4,000 OOO-much
less than the gain of single Minneapolis
bank.

C0uRT TO DECIDE

The tiresome dispute between the board
Of control and the state normal school
board is at last to be settled in court.
After trying in vain to obtain fair COM
promise, being desirous Of carrying out
the spirit Of the law creating the board of
control, notwithstanding literal defect
which probably excludes the normal
the other board feels bound to appeal to
the supreme court. If the judicial decision
comedies with the opinion of the attorney
general, there will follow an absolute
separation Of the functions of the two
boards. 1t is to be hoped that such will
be the outcome, for as long as the board
of control is constituted as at present, 1t
is plain that friction may again arise
even should the normal board now submit
to the other.
Although the controversy has been re-
duced to the comparatively Insignificant
question of whether or not the resident
normal school directors should be pur-
chasing agents for the board of control, it

legislature in endeavoring to apply the
board of control system to the states
educational institutions on the financial
side, leaving other functions of manage
ment to the existing boards of those insti-
tutions. From the first unpleasant con-
troversies were expected on account of
this division of authority. The board of
regents early took the bull by the horns
and secured an opinion from the attorney
general to the effect that the law was
defective. Armed with this, it forced the
board of control to leave it alone. The
normal school board, although aware Of
the analogy between its relation to the
defective law and that of the regents,
voted to accept the laws spirit and leave
financial administration to the board Of
control, hoping by mutual conference sat-
isfactorily to adjust the boundary line be-
tween financial and other control. 1t has
proved to be impossible to make that ad-
justment.
Experience having shown it to be i'm
possible for two boards with authority
that overlaps to work amicably and the
original friends and promoters of board
of control legislation having never intend
ed to include the educational institutions
within it's scope, the best solution Of the
present trouble lies in decision of the
courts removing that class of institu-
tions from the board of controls authority

and unprejudiced trial Of the new system
1t is most unfortunate that the general
boards tactless quarrel with the normal
school board has brought undeserved
odium upon the whole board of control
system and, in fact, endangered its exist
ence, before it has had time to demon
strate it's usefulness.

IMMIGRATION AND ANARCHISTS

The annual report of the commissioner
of immigration for the port Of New York
shows that 453,49 aliens landed there
during the last fiscal year, besides 133,-
056 American citizens. Among the aliens,
there were 10000 Italians from South
Italy, while there was an increase of so
per cent in the immigration from Rou-
mania, Lithuania and Syria, and Greek
immigration has greatly increased.
The commissioner states that we are
drawing more than heretofore from coun-
tries where illiteracy is highest and the
immigrants show higher percentages of
illiteracy, half the steerage passengers
being illiterate and much larger pro-
portion of women is found in the arrivals.
The commissioner recommends an in
crease Of the tax on immigrants to 81 a
head, and an extension of Jurisdiction
over immigrants to two or five years in
stead Of one year as at present. He
thinks that persons of anarchistic or other
criminal tendencies could better be ex-
cluded by requiring all immigrants to
present certificates of unobjectionable DO
lice records as a prerequisite for admis-
sion to this country. This is very good
on It's face, but it is well known that Eu-
ropean officials have not hesitated in the
past to make practice of shipping many
troublesome people with criminal pro-
clivities to this country for the purpose of
getting rid Of them. The commissioner
thinks that American inspectors Of immi-
grafton sent abroad would not be able
to better the situation, as they would have
to depend on the local police for informa
tion.
Congressman Wilson of New York pro-
poses to introduce in congress the bill
prepared by former United States Senator
David B. Hill, providing for the exclusion
and deportation OF alien anarchists. The
bill provides that the board of special in
quiry authorized under the immigration
act, shall investigate suspects and report
ON them to the immigration superintend
ent, who, If satisfied that the Immigrant
Is an anarchist, shall cause him to be

Lessons in the Public Schools.

To the Editor Of The Journal:
believe in the public school institu-
ton, and my children have attended regular
| ly for many years. But this does not mean
| that we can indorse all the public school does
under present-day methods. In many cases
we are overtaxing young pupils and teaching
a good deal that is useless and even unsound.
do not wish to be understood as criticizing
the general policy of the schools. We know
that the public schools OF this country are
doing a wonderful work. All l am seeking to
emphasize Is that we are careless at times in
school administration in that we are too ex-
acting; that many teachers forget that their
relation to the pupils is that Of helper, not
that Of ruler; that on this account many par
ents all over the country are resorting to pri-
vate teachers on the ground that the pupil
can learn more Of what they need, less Of
what they do not need and accomplish the
desired result without physical injury to the
child
Last evening I found my daughter in her
room in tears. She had just finished COM
position, but had yet Latin lesson to learn.
She had worked on other lessons during the
afternoon and was tired out. She is in high
school, is 10, and here is her lesson for to-
morrow:
Twenty problems in Algebra
Twenty-one Latin words, give meaning,
person anu tense.
Ten English words, give translation in
Latin.
Twelve Latin words, commit to memory,
decline adjectives and give declension and
gender of nouns, with person and number.
Two Latin definitions.
Analyze four pages in reader.
Give sketch of six gods, Mars, Mercury,
Venus, Vulcan, Pluto and Bacchus.
Write sketch on why you like your ia
vorite author.
Write a second sketch on your favorite
play, actor or actress.
Her public school record was nine and ten all
through the years. but she is not physically
able to keep up pace such as this. There
are hundreds like her who are being hurried
along at rate that compels them to take
low standing in class, when, could the pace
be more moderate, they would as a whole
accomplish more. In this class one OF the
teachers is particularly nagging. The child
Of nervous temperament Is reprimanded in
most sarcastic manner, with the result that
they are afraid to recite and fail frequently
because Of fear. The teacher OF this stamp
should be dismissed, and It is the business
of some one in authority to know that such
a practice is going on.
In the public school to-day teacher in
structed her GLASS to abbreviate September as
sep" One boy had written it Sept" and
she said II the mistake was repeated to-day
the pupil would be marked down. The Cen
tury dictionary gives Sept" as the correct
abbreviation. 1t is common commercial Gus
tom to write it that way, and / want my boy
taught the usage Of the country rather than
some whim by a professor who has felt
called upon to write book. Our board Of edu
cation has seemed altogether too ready 70
