THE most historic church in
New York city is St. Paul's chapel.
Here are contained pre-revolution-
airy relics and there hundreds of
visitors go daily to sit in the pew
which George Washington once
occupied The church stands
almost in the heart of the business
district on lower Broadway. Now
it is said that a syndicate of capt.
talists have made an offer of
$5,0OO,00O for the edi6ce and
church yard surrounding for the
site of great Office building The
churchmen have refused the offer,
greatly to the city's gain, for there
are many sky-sorapers, but only
one ST. Paul's chapel. Most things
have to give away to the advance
of commerce and the demands of
business But St. Paul's with it's
historic record is too impressive a
memorial to be allowed to disap

And while it may not be perfect

good thing. The price of the
paper has been placed at five cents
a copy and the least that could be
expected of those business men
who are not represented in this
issue would be to purchase and
mail out twenty to fifty copies of
the oil edition.

WATER FOR ARID LANDS.
Well to be Drilled either for Oil or
Water by New Company.

The Cramer Oil, Live Stock d
Investment company expects to be
in operation on its land five and
one half miles southeast of Flor
ence in sixty days. The object is
TO drill for oil, although good
body of artesian water would be
appreciated On the land are
500 fruit trees and several acres
are planted to alfalfa. Quite Il
little water is on the ground, but
not sufficient to irrigate the entire
ranch. The well will be drilled on
the highest point of the ground,
50 that if a body of water is struck
it can be properly handled for
irrigation purposes
The TRIBUNE has from time to
time suggested the value of these
artesian wells for irrigating and a
test is actually going to be made
by the above company. Usually
the per cent of soda in the water
is so small that it in no wise in
jures the growth of vegetable,
and if the per cent of soda was
larger it would precipitate.
The time, 1t is believed, will
come when com panies will be
formed expressly for drilling for
water to irrigate the arid lands
south of the Arkansas river in this
part of the valley The Cramer
company's ground is but three
miles north of the Fremont Oil q
Gas company's water well and a
flow is almost assured

COUNTY SUPERINTENDENTS.

The st. Paul Dispatch comment ing
editorially upon the paper by Supt.
Freeman of this county, which stirred
up some feeling in the gathering of
county superintendents, says:
Superintendent Freeman of Blue
Earth had the courage of his convic
tions with him when he said that
county uperintendents were, in too
many cases, amenable to political in
fuences that prevented them from do
ing their full duty by their schools.
To say this in meeting of county
superintendent was to invite a quar-
rel, and he was promptly accommo-
dated. He seemed able to hold his
own, though. Even if one had no per-
sonal experience with the working of
our country SUPPLEMENTARY system,
one might, reasoning a priori, reach
the conclusion expressed by Superin
tendent Freeman. The fault is not so
much in the incumbents as in the sys-
tenn which puts that very importa Mt
Office among the electives and subjects
its occupant to all the strains to which
all holders of place by election are put.
1t is inevitable that, as human nat u re
runs, persons will try to use their
political influence with superinten-
dent, and that superintendents will
dread the consequences of refusal
Where one has had that personal ex-
perience this process of reasoning is
superAuous, but the conclusion is the
same.
Something was accomplished by the
legislation which transferred examin-
ations and ratings to the state superin-
tendent. 1t relieved the schools from
the not infrequent granting of certif-
Gates where there were none of the
qualifications demanded by it. 1t put
backbone stiffening where a county
superintendent could get and use it if
so inclined. 1t was also a step in a
direction that must be traversed its
full length before the system can be
called such, the making the state su-
perintendent actually, instead of nomi-
nally, the head of the system. There
should be also return to the appoint
i've method of selecting superinten-
dents, and wherever the appointing
power was lodged it should be re,
stricted to selection from those hold.
ing certificates of qualification from
the state superintendent. Then, with
some needed powers added to those Of
the latter officer, we would have some
thing that might be called a system.

DROP FREEMAN.
How the Co. Supts. Try to Get Even
With Him,

nUW tile CU' ouptS' Try ~ uet EVeiI
With Him.
The Sunday Pioneer Press says:
The county superintendent yester-
day got even with Supt. Freeman of
Blue Earth county, who said county
superintendent are in majority of
cases afraid of political influences, by
adopting resolutions of confidence in
themselves and RELOCATING Mr.. Free
man to the ranks after purging his
paper of the Objectionable statements.
The cudgel dropped Friday morning
by Supt. Park of st. Louis county
was taken up yesterday morning by
Supt Parke of Pipestone, who offered
resolutions censuring Mr.. Freeman.
A lively parliamentary tilt resulted in
putting the resolutions over until I'M
finished business was taken up, when
they were again pressed.
The resolutions were defeated but
when Mr. Freeman arose to thank the
superintendent for their support he
was told they were defeated only to
get rid of lot of undesirable dirty
linen. Freeman was vice president
and in line for the presidency and the
method of his colleague, revenge be-
came apparent when the nominating
committee reported. Mr.. Freeman
was out in the cold. His Waterloo had
been effected at a little caucus the
night preceding and E. NJ. Dresbach
of Olmsted county, comparatively
new conner in the ranks of the county
superintendent, was nomina ted and
elected. The other officers are vice
president, Supt. George G. Bor khardt,
| Lac qui Parle county; secretary, Supt.
Christine Goetzinger, Otter Tail
county, and treasurer, Supt. Wilson,
Grow Wing.
Supt. Freeman moved that the OBJ
jectional sentences in his paper be ex-
purged and the section adopted resolu-
tions indorsing State Superintendent
Olsen's plan for consolidation of rural
schools and the work of the agricul-
tural college. ......

ONLY ONE WAY.
City Must Follow the Charter
in assessments.
Assistant Attorney General Holds
That the Law of 1901 Cannot
Apply Here.

Since learning the report of the
special committee of the board of
trade, which held that the general law
of 1901, allowing cities to extend the
payment for street Improvements over
a period of years, stands coordinate
with the charter provision and leaves
the council the right to choose which
course it shall follow, City Attorney
Daley has written to the attorney
general for his opinion. He did not
indicate his own feelings in the mat
ter, but simply put the direct question.
Mr.. Galley Saturday received the
following reply:
ST. Paul, Dec. %, 1901. G. o
Daley, Esq, City Attorney, Mankato,
MINI. Dear Sir: Replying to yours
of Dec Gath would say, that section 4
of sub-chapter 6, of chapter Al,
special laws 1891, an act containing
the charter of the city of Mankato,
proyides that all assessments or local
improvements such as street paving,
etc, shall be made by the board of
public works in the city of Mankato,
and this chapter forms the exclusive
method for the collection of such as
sessments.
I find no limitation or qualifications
in the hasty examination which l
have been able to give to this chapter,
which would authorize procedure in
anv other manner than is provided in
YOUR charter, as found in this act, for
the collection of special assessments
for street improvements.
1t is therefore my opinion that you
would not be authorized to construct
paving improvements, or proceed to
collect assessments therefor, under the
provisions of chapter $40, G. L. 1901.
In relation to that act 1 call your at
tention to the last paragraph of sec
ton 81 of chapter 379, which reads :
"This act shall not be deemed to re-
peal any provision of any psecial char
ter in force at the date hereof.
Yours truly,
G. W. SOMERBY.
Asst. Atty. General.
Mr.. Daley feels that he has been
indicated in the stand which he has
taken all along, which is Identical
with that taken by the assistant at
torney general. He had spent good
deal of time on the matter.
There is felt to be much doubt whether
Judge Cray will pass upon the points
raised by City Recorder Williams re-
garding the charter. He may simply
decide the one point in the mandamus
proceedings, as to whether the recorder
shall place the liquor license money
where the council directs, and refer the
other questions to the city attorney,
as the legal adviser of the city.
There is some question as to whether
the mandamus proceedings will be
started until the recorder refuses to
draw an order on the road fund be-
cause there is no money in it, when
the question of what was done with
the liquor license money would come

SUPT. FREEMAN'S ANIMADVER.
SION.
MINNEAPOLIS Tribune:

Minneapolis Tribune:
School Superintendent W. E. Free
man of Blue Earth county, raise d his
voice in the state educational conven-
tion, in earnest protest against the
political pull in connection with the
public schools, and he excited the ire
of the other uperintendents by declar-
ing that some of them allow their
judgment to be swayed by fear of OPP
position at the polls; also that some
are afraid to turn down applications
for state aid by rural schools that fall
below the standard, for the same rea-
son. 1t is to be feared that there is too
much foundation for Mr.. Freeman S
animadversion. The teacher with a
''pull' may become the terror of sup
; erintendents or school boards. It is
hard to eliminate politics from any
thing in this land of universal stuff
rage, but it does seem as if the schools
should be sacred from political in
| trusion.
