DEMAND FOR TEACHERS
Trained Teachers for Rural Schools
-.....- SO Not Plentiful Enough. ~. >..sy2

The<demand for trained teachers for the
rural schools of Minnesota far exceeds
the supply. The more prosperous scnool
dist riots are offering $50 and $50 a month
for teachers who have had normal train
ing. but dind great dificulty In getting
what they want. President Shoemaker of
the St. Cloud normal school has had,
within week, from that section OF the
state, seventy calls for normal school
graduates, the salaries offered ranging
from $40 to $50. He was able TO supply
only few places. AS the state gives
free tuition in the normal schools to
those desiring to teach, the expense Of
fitting for SUCH positions IS small, and the
prospects are for greatly increased at
tendance at the normal schools this win

sonable methods from the high representa-
tiyes Of the government. Let Justice be done
to America; in no other country is there a
government so fair-minded, so Impartial, SO
willing to treat all classes Of citizens with
absolute justice, as that with which we are
blessed in America.
And let Catholics be careful lest by i'm
prudent agitation and repeated mistrust OF
the government Of America. they instill into
the minds of many of their fellow citizens the
notion that as Catholics they are disposed to
form themselves into people apart. ever
dissatisfied with America and its institutions,
ever ready to complain. ever anxious to find
a plea upon which to rest their murmurrgs
The Catholic body will never prosper in
America unless 1t be thoroughly imbued with
the spirit of the country. and with deep
love for it's welfare. To be one with the
country is the lesson which Pope Leo is
ceaselessly teaching Catholics in America to
take to their heart, and to practice, even

Mistrust of he.Pope.

AS to matters in the Philippine islands we
cannot discuss them. They are for the time
being put beyond our reach since they are
the subject Of negotiations between the gov
ernment Of America and the sovereign pontiff
To take at the present such matters into
our own hands would be to mistrust the Wis
dom and the good will of the sovereign
pontiff and Of this loyal Catholics should not
be capable; it would be to treat with dis
courteous ingratitude the administration tn
Washington; and this, as true Americans,
Catholics will not permit themselves to do
The logic of the situation, in presence Of
strange complications for church and state
arising from change of sovereignty in the
Philippine islands, pointed to a mutual con-
ference between the head of the church and
a representative of the state, as the proper
and dignifed way to a final and peaceful solu-
tion. "a
Leo XIII. saw this; Theodore Roosevelt saw
this. Leo took the Initiative, proposed the
conference and asked the government to ex-
pose frankly and thoroughly it's views. The
president and his advisors accepted the pro-
posal What more could have been done
by the administration to prove its good will
and it's sense Of justice? II the administra-
ton had refused to send representative to
Rome, verify what clamorings there would
have been, and now when it has sent rep
resentative to Rome, and agrees to the further
proposal of the vatican to transfer negotia-
tions to Manila, clamorings are still raised.
Well, some people are born to clamor, and
privilege to clamor must be allowed to them.
Be it SO, but we shall insist that they clamor
in their own name, and not in that Of the
Catholic church in America, and for our own
part we shall hold our souls in peace. leaving
church interests in the Philippines to one
who understands them at least as we'll as we
do. and who will be as wise in disposing Of
them, as we could we'll hope to be-Leo XIII.

Memorial Days Lesson.

Nearly four decades have passed
since the last soldier fell in battle in
thu war for the Union, and to very
large part of our people now the com
mCmoration of the heroic dead ncccs-
sarily has not the personal association
that ut first gave such Solemnity 10 the
annual decoration of their graves. But.
while the ceremony has thus lost some
thing of lis spOntancity. says the Phil
adclpl:ia Times. it may really have
gained more than it has lost in value
This day OF flowers. which was at first
devoted To the personal commcmOra
ton of the dead. grows more and more
into IL celebration of the imperSonal
virtue of patriotism. which waS illus
tratod in their devotion unto death.
And this is all the more valuable be-
cause il utterly excludes all that self
seeking. commercial element that for IL
time seemed TO have taken possession
Of Memorial day ana dishOnored th,.
soldier dead by associating with their
memory demand for rccompense To
their survivors. No matter what the
measure Of Our obligations to the vol
untcerS Of lS6l-GJ. they did not go into
the war for pay or even for glory. The
world never saw Il grandcr exhibition
of upScliiSh sacrifice than they made
in pure dcvut Al 10 their country. and
this is what We have To commemorate.
what we have 10 emulate. what we
have to teach our children to hold i'm
lasting honor.
Memorial day thus takes its place,
among our American holidays as the
festival especially Of the military vir
tues. as Independence day cOmmemo
rates the civic virtues and duties of
patriotism. Not many times in the
history of our nation has the great
sacrifice of war come upon us. bur
whenever it may come we must take
care that it tind It's ready with the
courage and devotion and the enthu
sIasm that met all previous trials and
secured 10 us our opportunities of
peace.

Moody to the Rescue

They are telling Il story in Washing
ton about the new secretary of the
navy. Mr.. Moody WAS riding on one
of the Boston surface cars and was
standing OH the platform on the side
next the gate that protected passengers
from cars coming on the ether track.
y lady, Boston lady. came to the
door Of the car and as it stopped start
ed to move toward the gate. which
was hidden from her view by the men
standing before it.
Other side. please. lady" said the
conductor. He was ignored as only n
born and bred BoStOnian can ignore n
man. The lady took another step to
ward the gate.
You must get off the other side
saif the conductor.
IL wish to get off on this side" came
the answer in tones that CONCEALED the
Oi1lc!al INTO mOmcntary silence. Be
fore he could either explain or expostu-
late Mr. Moody came to his assistance
Stand to one side. gentlemen" he
remarked quietly. the lady wants to
climb over the gate."-New York

Town Improvement Society.

Among the summer suggestions
is that of town improvement
society. Many places have been
greatly benefited by such, and the
prospects and possibilities of Titus
Vile could be pushed forward by
such a society, which is not less
than has been the case in other
places.
A town improvement league has
an ideal and real side, the same
as all other things in this world.
AS theory it resolves upon the
building of handsome public struc-
lures, maintains a public library
without expense, sets out shade
trees, secures public lectures, and
enthuses the whole town with an
up-to-date rush after a beautiful,
clean and enterprising town.
AS a reality town improvement
league does not do so much. Won
ders are not worked in a day. A
few of the leading women and their
daughters usually form the neu-
cleus of wider circle of more or
less indifferent following.
A sentiment for cleanliness and
beauty is germinated but it does
not become an Overshadowing oak
in a minute.
The public library begins as a
reading room with a few papers
and periodicals and growing num-
Der of good books to be paid for by
annual library tickets.
1t is quite doubtful if one of the
ideal organizations could be main
tanned here, but the usual reality
would be very desirable and GER
tain to bring about some very help
ful results.

The Ogden Plan of Education.

The Ogden party, which visited
the south in the interest of educa-
tion in the latter part of April, re-
turned TO New York last Saturday,
well satisfied with what it had seen
and done.
1t is the purpose of the men who
are associated with Mr.. Ogden to
raise a fund of $50, 900, 600 to be ex-
pended in the aid Of education.
Just before the party started on its
trip south Mr.. J. D. Rockefeller
donated to the cause 81, 100000. 1t
was an unexpected donation, and
was highly appreciated. 1t is be-
ginning to be understood that it is
Mr.. Rockefeller's purpose to use his
great wealth for the promotion of
laudable objects. He has appa-
rently taken the Chicago university,
under his especial care. His gifts
to that institution already amount
to more than S6,000,000.
On their arrival in New York
members of the Ogden party are
quoted as having said that it was
the intention of the organization
which has undertaken this educa-
tiOnal work to give its attention
principally to the advancement of
the public schools. But before it
does much in that direction it will
help to prepare for their work those
who propose to become teachers in
such schools.
1t seems that this educational
work of the Ogden organization is
assuming such large proportions
that Mr.. George Foster Peabody,
the treasurer Of the organization,
will devote his entire time to it.
He and others are quoted as saying
since their return from the south,
that besides aiding the public
schools attention would be given
to assisting southern young women
and young men along the line of
industrial education. Mr.. Ogden
said that the fruits of what was
being done might not be clearly
seen inside of twenty-five years.
Of course he did not mean that
there would be no visible results
sooner than that, but that it would
be long time before the full effect
of the educational work would be
seen.

ing room as provided for in the plans
is us large as an ordinary dwelling.
Ii is estimated that the house will
cost over s.. 1900. The plans call for
the Identifying of the thirteen acres

erection of fine stables. Farther back

J. Hill, of the Great Northern rail-
road, writes that the consolidation
of wealth makes prosperity, and is
therefore a good thing. The rail
roads, he asserts, have shown how
sections may be developed and
made prosperous by combinations
of capital. Railroad consultations,
like that of the Northern Securities
merger. he declares, are for the pur-
pose of lowering and not advancing
rates. Representative Grosvenor,
of Ohio, a member of the Republi-
can national committee and a lead
er of his party, is defender of the
millionaire and the great combina-
tion of capital. call that can be
said in favor of the beneficial re-
suits of the distribution of wealth, +"
he says, ''hinges primarily upon
the concentration of wealth and the
necessity for such concentration"
John Dewitt Warner declares:
POLITICALLY the result of the cur
rent tendency towards concentra-
ted wealth is plutocracy. Unchecked
it means rapidly approaching revo-
luton" This is in direct opposi-
ton to the view of Gen. >Grosvenor,
who sees in aggregated wealth the
preservation of the state. Ernest
Howard .Crosby's view is that there
is grave danger of wealth creating
an aristocracy, while Prof. p. +.
More thinks that with greater
wealth we shall have greater cul-
ture. AS to the outcome. Prof
Clark, of Columbia university,
thinks it will be a modified indi-
vidualism, while William Jennings
Bryan says the concentration OF
wealth is a menace to government
and civilization.
After a careful consideration of
all the arguments submitted, the
editor of the Independent makes
this summing up: 1--WE believe that
he is the true American who sees
in the concentration of wealth
neither a materialistic heaven nor
an inevitable doom, but a serious
menace to republican institutions,
which calls for courage, for resolu-
tion, for knowledge-for civic grit
and common sense"

In March of last year congress
passed an act requiring interstate
railroads TO report monthly to the
Interstate Commerce commission
all accidents and casualties on their
lines, the same to be tabulated and
published by the mission. The
first report under the new law has
just been made public. 1t covers
the three months ending SeptGm-
80, 1901, and shows that during
that period there were collisions
and other train accidents causing
the death of 24O persons and the
injury Off ,622 persons. Accidents
of all other kinds, including those
sustained by employees while at
work and by passengers getting ON
or off cars, increased the total num-
ber of casualties to 725 killed and
lO,4S7 injured. Out of this grand
total passengers suffered To the
extent of 10 killed and 2,l26
injured. When it is remember
ed that the railroads carry mil
lions of passengers every month it
will be seen that the percentage of
chances for a passenger TO be killed
ur injured on the railroad is quite
low,

The Concentration of Wealth.

The Independent magazine in a
recent edition devoted more than
fifty-two pages of space to IL sympO-
sium on the question quoted in the
headline above. The discussion was
participated in by such men as Car
roll ID. Wright, Chas. Il. Flint, Rus
sell Sage, James J. Hill, Gen. c. II.
Grosvenor, John Dewitt Warner.
William J. Bryan and a number of
others well known either for their
wealth, their connection with great
syndicates, or their broad and com
prehensive views of public ques-
tions The symposium is notable
one, viewing the matter from about
every conceivable standpoint and
discussing it with trankness
There could be no greater, no
more important question before the
people of this republic than that of
the concentration ot wealth into a
comparatively few hands. That
such concentration is steadily going
on cannot be denied. We see il
every day in the formation of new
combinations designed to control
commodities, and in the rapidly
increasing wealth of few individ-
ualS.
Charles r. Flint, a fnancier and
trust maker, says industrial cOnsol-
idatiOns are but natural evOlu-
tions; that they are following the
same natural law as that under
which water seeks its level. The
