''My son." said the sage, ''it has been
observed by many wise men, and even
by fools, that enjoyment is rather in
anticipation than in realization. The
events to which we look forward most

But" said the disciple. sis it wise to

A LONG STEP FORWARD.
Law Prescribing Qualifications for
Public School Teachers.
CIRCULAR ISSUED BY SUPERINTENDENT

The subjoined circular, calling at.
tention to the requirements of the
Law on the subject of qualifications re-
quired for teachers of public schools,
was issued yesterday by Colonel ].
Franco Chaves, territorial su%perinten-
dent of public instruction. The cir
GUAR demands the strict enforcement
of the law and is a long step forward
in the progress of the public school
system of New Mexico. 1t is as fol-
lows:
Office of Superintendent of Public
Instruction, Santa Fe. n. NJ, June
is. 1903.
| desire to call your attention to the
requirements af law regarding the APP
pointment of teachers.
Section 1913 of the compiled laws Of
1897, as amended in 1901, makes at
tendance at a teachers institute or
approved summer school. within the
ear. compulsory; and there is an ex-
press provision f%orbidding county SUI
perintendents TO issue a certificate to
any person wno has not complied with
this requirement. The only exception
is in case of a proper excuse approx
ed by the county superintendent. and
also by the territorial board of edu-
cation.
Great care should be exercised in
the granting of teachers certificates
| Not only the letter, but the spirit OF
the law should be strictly complied
with. The stream cannot rise higher
than it's source, and without good
teachers it is impossible to have good
scholars. The people cheerfully pay
taxes for public education, and they
are entitled TO the best instruction
that can be obtained.
To allow incompetent persons tC
teach is a crime against the entire
community, and especially against the
children, who are thus deprived o.
their right to education. and to whom
such an injury is irreparable.
Every teacher must understand En-
glish thoroughly, as the instruction
must be in that language. There ii
no intention to disparage the beautiful
language of the first European settl
ers in New Mexico, but Englinsh II
the language of the country, OF botl
public and private business, and
thorough acquaintance with it is es
sential to practical success in life b.

Washington, y. c.. August 12-The Re
tail GroCeI~ and General Merchants As
ISOLATION met here tonignt TO discuss the
move OF the tobacco trust IA putting
down prices and to pass resolutions de
timing the position OF the merchants here
toward this trust.
Such resolutions were written in ad-
vance by President al. E. TayIoe, OF the
association, and these were adopted with
cut material change. They are IS fol-
lows:
,Resolyed, we, the members of The Re
tail Merchants and Grocers' Association,
u Washington, n. c., DO hereby pledge
ourselves, that we VIII no longer act as
distributing agents Tor the American To
bacuo Company as against our farmer
friends. In cur Judgment this strong
and oyerbedrIng corporation has taken
undue and mean advantage Of the tobacco
farmer by putting the selling price OF
Leaf tobacco below the cost OF production.
IL Ola Judgment, ii We can ct the co
operation Of all the Merchants ASsocia-
tons throughout the South and the CO
operation o. the farmers, who.are largely
the consumers. by handling brands Of
tobacco, snuifs, cigars, etc, manufacture
by the independent manufacturers we
can soon build up a healthy condition Of
trade and competition which will be very
beneficial to the tobacco growers Of North
Carolina.
Second. We further agree to push, ad-
vertisc and use all legitimate means pOsai-
tie 10 bring the products Of Independent
manufacturers into prominence. Tht

manufactured sells for 40 to 50 cents per
pound.
The 90 to 40 cents is expended in labor
and dividends to enrich the general manu-
featuring community for every pound OF
tobacco manufactured where an agricul-
turaI community only reaps an advantage
OF 10 cents. The commencement OF manu-
featuring would necessitate no great in
diyidual expense. The boycott throws open
a field for immediate operation and the
field may be extended by treaties.
Now If ever is the time to a
boycott while there are private manufac-
turers to furnish the trade with manu-
lactured products. These concerns should
be encouraged as much as possible.
The trusts are also amenable to the
criminal law as Mr.. Bryan suggests, and
this is a great weapon IN the pubhe
hands. Tins triple policy meets the trust
on their own fighting ground and would
solve the problem either by establishing
competition, or bringing to the farne,
the knowledge Of the profits in manufac
turing and the solution through per
soual interests.
The trusts operate only on principle
Of monopoly. Monopoly Of the machinery
for manufacturing through the patent OF
flee. Monopoly Of the home market by
high tariff and suppression Of competition
by overlooking the private dealers with
high priced tobacco and forcing them tt
keep it and suppress competition. But
IN this last policy then mistake was that
all possible competition was already OF
the market. Now the private dealer by
