have given their approval. l. P King,
the old war horse senator OF COwley
county, IN a letter TO friend at Topeka,
says
Il believe that the only wise thing to
do low is to fII out the vacant places on
the democratic ticket and make the
effort Of our lives for united action at
the polls. Let Us meet the situation like
men who have higher thoughts than
mere Offices and names. I hope for the
best judgment to prevail"
Chief Justice Frank DOster gives his
hearty approval to the plan and predicts
that Mr.. Craddock viii defeat Mr.. Bailey
next fall. Henry ". Young, Of hide
pendenee, perhaps the most influential
pOpulist In the state, also writes as
follows:
"Ehe only sensible course for the pop
ulists to pursue Is to name the candi-
dates for the places on the ticket left
vacant by the democratic convention,

ticket under the democratic name. This
has been my position from the first. In
this way alone can the reform forces Of

Speaks well Of Mr.. Pujo.


In discussing the congress
ional situation. the New Orleans
Daily States summarizes the con-
ditions in the Seventh districh as
follows: "The new Seventh dis
trict has been referred to by
Jealous republicans as the great
battle ground of this campaign,
but. Mr.. Pulp, the democratic
nominee willhave an easy victory.
OF pleasing personality and su-
perior abilities, Mr.. Pujo has cap
tured the confidenceof the voters
of his district, because of his
straightforward, consistent and
manly course, and because dem
.ocrats and republicans alike re.
alize that the interests of their
district will find in him an able
and persistent advocate. 1t is
quite probable that MIR. Pujo, be.
sides receiving the solid demo
cratic vote Of his district, will al
so receive more republican votes
than his competitor.

No lazy man or woman or one
who does uot love to instruct has
any business in the school room
as teacher. says the Biblical
Record. The parents need to
know the teacher to whom they
are asked to entrust their chill
dren, and the children must be
able to show himself worthy of
of that trust. The teacher should
cultivate .the most friendly re-.
lations towards the parents and
children of the district by visit.
ing them in their homes and in
ducing them to visit the school.
The parents should be i'm.
pressed with the idea that the
school is theirs, being run by an
expert manager or teacher in
their interest and for the benefit
of their children. The teacher
must dispell the idea that the
school is being taught for the
money there is in it, and it does
not make any difference how the
time passes so he does not teach
too long and the voucher is made
out in good order.
