POLITICS IN THE SCHOOLS.

n OWN IN BEAVER COUNTY the
~ Republicans are very much worked
up over a letter from State Superin-
tendent of Schools Nelson advising that
the school elections, with special refer
ence to county sup5rintendents, be con-
Quoted on a non-partisan basis. Judged
by their published statements, the Re-
publicans of Beaver county believe in
making party service the test of an
individuals ability to take charge of
county schools. A more miscellaneous
position could not be taken.
If there is one place more than an
other in the affairs of a community
which should be absolutely free from
partisan politics it is the school room.
There fitness, and fitness alone, should
be the test. 1t may be said that the
fact that a man is an ardent Republic
can or a Woodworking Democrat does
not necessarily disqualify him for serv-
ice in a school. Certainly not, but
political conventions have a habit of
nominating the individual who is be-
Heved to be able TO get the most votes.
He may be competent and he may
not be competent. That is a question
on which the convention does not pass,
nor is it a question on which the con-
yention is competent to pass. The
time-hOnored test in a partisan con-
vention is entirely on the point of the
proposed nominees ability to get votes.
If he is popular, if he stands well, and
many times when he does not stand
well, he is nominated and elected.
Then, feeling under obligation to the
party which has honored him, he at
once begins casting about for method
of reciprocating. If he is a Republi-
can he fills as many places in the
schools as he possibly can with Repub-
Iicans. If he is a Democrat, he feels
it to be his plain duty to turn out all
the Republicans possible. The result
is Generalization, complete and hope
less; the result is the lowering of the
standard of efficiency and the placing
of the schools in a position from which
it will take years to recover.
Clearly the state superintendent is
right when he urges non-partisan
school elections. The fact that he was
elected on a partisan ticket can have
no possible bearing on the case. 1t is
manifest that he could not interfere.
in a partisan sense, with the conduct of
the schools, for he has no executive
supervision over them.
The Herald would go further than
Mr.. Nelson has gone in mis- letter It
would strongly advocate a nOn-partisan
or a bipartisan judiciary. Those who
have studied the situation are thor
oughly convinced that the best judges
in this country are not the judges NOM
mated and elected by political parties.
State judges should be appointed by
the governors of states for life or for
long term of years, just as United
States judges are appointed by the
president They should be divided
equally between the great political or
CARNATIONS and the best men should be-
chosen, regardless of party service.

Pacific will soon have finished the
work of spreading oil on the Kansas
Pacific division. The oil comes from
California and is spread to prevent
dust.
I'VE are very well satisfied With our
experience with the oil" said Superin-
tendent Deuel.. I'VE are spreading it
from a tank and it is working perfect
ly. over the districts thus far covered
there is absolutely no dust. We will
have to spread the oil once a year.
This is because sufficient oil will have
to soak into the ground to go below
the depth necessary to put in ties. 1t
takes the oil, and considerable of it, to
have this effect.
BY preventing dust the oil saves
our machinery and cars, and | believe
is of an immense amount of benefit to
every railroad. We have found the
California oil preferable to any other
because it contains more asphaltum."

Saves Much Bother.-The inter-
changeable mileage system, as estab-
lished by the new scrip books recently
adopted in the territory west of the
Missouri river, gives promise of be-
coming a remarkable success. 1t is
n of the most popular methods both
with the travelling men and the rail
roads ever introduced in the west.
The use of these scrip books by COM
mercial men Is becoming general
throughout the western territory with
satisfactory results. In all the terri
tory covered by these books the net
rate is as low as paid for ordinary
mileage, and in some cases it is half a
cent lower. The scrip is also accepted
in payment of charges for excess bag
gage ION which a refund Of 20 per cent
is made), and does away with the cum
bersome lot of mileage and baggage
tickets, one book enabling the holder
to ride on twenty-five roads in a large
territory.

The influence which brought him all
his promotions, is not behind him; il
Is within him. Like General Manager
Nudge, he has a big brain for railroad

had a wide experience. Like Nudge,
he began at the bottom-driving spikes
on the grade-and has worked himself
up by a combination of talents and in
defatigable energy in the application
OF his mind to the duties of the various
positions he has filed. He has built
his ladder to high place and every

railroad companies against the ticket

of tickets have been made recently and
the New England Trunk line and Cen

have organized a bureau for joint ac-

regular meeting of the Central Passen-

upon.
In connection with the move against
the scalpers it is charged TIA there

sued from Chicago to the Pacific coast
for the purpose of large gatherings, by
which the scalpers have defeated the
best plans of the ticket agents. The
charge is that the brokers provided
themselves with a good supply of tick
cts when first issued and kept them
until after the expiration of the low
rate period. Then the portion of the
ticket providing for transportation to
the Missouri river was removed and
the buyer given a straight ticket that

New England View Of the
Negro Problem.


Congressman Chas. E. Littlefeld
of Maine, delivered very inter-
esting address few nights ago be-
fore the Congregational Club of
Washington. on "a Feature of the
Development of Civilization" He
devoted much of his time to the
race problem which confronts not
only the people of the South in
the negro, but the country at large
in the natives of the Philippines,
which group of islands Mr.. Little
field termed "an international YER
inform appendix" In it's earliest
days this country, he said, had to
deal with the Indian problem
which was then the paramount
rsce question. All the nationali-
ties in the original colonies tried
to make friends with the Indians
only to discover that it was neces-
sary to first subjugate the red man.
This method was adopted with the
result that the Indians were dri-
ven gradually westward before the
muzzle of the white mans rife
and to-day there are only 100000
of them in the United States who
have escaped benevolent assimi-
lation."
Although living in a section of
the country remote from the South,
Mr.. Littlefeld has studied the me-
gro question intelligently and
holds that the end of the Civil
War found 100000 freed blacks
in position of peril to the coun-
try. The colonization of the white
race, he said, in his address was
accomplished after years of strug-
gle and association with the grea-
test races of mankind and then he
inquired: "By what right does an
act of Congress seek to place an
inferior race on an equal footing
with men who have lived through
1900 years of ChristianityY Mr..
Little6eld fully appreciate the
fact that the people of the South
who possessed the highest form of
civilization was asked to recognize
the negro as an equal and the ma
tural outcome was resentment and
the adoption of measures to keep
the negro in his proper place. The
great mistake Mr.. Littlefield de-
clares and he is not the only man |
in New England of that opinion
twas in enfranchising the negro
and placing in his hands powers
he was unqualified to exercise"
He contends that more than a gen.
GRAFTON or two is necessary to civil
lie any people and fortunate will |
be the generation that will see a
true solution ofthe negro problem
