Should Judge Taft be selected
by the President as Secretary of
War in'the event of Mr.. Roots
presumable retirement next
winter, no appointment that the
President could make could meet
with more general approval
throughout the country. Judge
Taft, in every position that he
has occupied, has shown himself
possessed of strong qualities. AS
Governor Of the Philippines he
has given the best and most
numerous proofs of his ability,
and as the Philippine question is
likely, for some years to come,
to be one of the most difficult
problems with which the War
Department has to deal, Judge
Taft's appointment as Secretary
of War would be not only a we'll
merited promotion, but would
place him directly in line with
the work in which he has been so
successful. Judge Taft's father
was Secretary of War under
President Grant.

The action of Prince George
County, Maryland, convention in
endorsing Mr.. German for
president calls special attention
to that statesman's candidacy.
1t is admitted that the democrats
must make their fight this year
on tariff reform. slightly yelled
and befogged in the trust issue,
butthestraightout tariff question
nevertheless. How then would
Mr.. German do as a democratic
candidate? He would seem a
more likely quantity were the
country on free trade basis and
the tariff reform proposition in
the other direction, for Mr..
German is an avowed protection
list. He believes in it and his
acts have been consistently
those of a protectionist, even to
the extent of emasculating the
Wilson tariff bill so that Grover
Cleveland mathematical it as
a measure of ''perfdy and
dishonor."

South Dakota Supreme.

Argus Leader: South Dakota just
now is receiving some splendid
advertising, advertising which will do
the state millions of dollars worth of
good. This is the season of the year
when not only the farmers of the
country, but all the business men, the
the men with money, the investors and
promoters, watch the corn reports with
great interest. They scan the COM
mercial pages OF the large papers and
they read with great care the official
reports of the yields of various states.
Now it happens that this year in every
newspaper, in every report, in every
crop returns. The government report
which came out a week ago made
South Dakota the first state in the
union in wheat, oats and barley, so
far as yield and quality 60. And no
other state stood near us in percentage.
That report was read by millions of
people who all noted the fact that
South Dakota has raised the best O
in the United States. In addition our
corn crop was placed a little ahead of
any other state.
Now comes a circular from the Com
mercial National Bank of Chicago
which comprises reports sent to that
institution by bank officials in all the
states OF the union. This cicular also
contains a prOdigious boom for
South Dakota. The crops of all the
states are reviewd and naturally ours
stands out conspicuously at the head of
the list. These reports we're made by
bankers to a bank and may therefor
be relied upon as the sober Judgment
OF mOneyed men. Speaking of spring
wheat this circular states that Minne-
sofa and North Dakota show a falling
OF against last year of 5 and 30 per
cent respectively, while South Dakota
shows a gain of II per cent, thus
reducing Inc average for the three to a
decrease OF . per cent. South Dakota
ranks with Nebraska and Kansas at
the head OF the list in oats, the three
states showing an increase of from s
to IL per cent while Minnesota, North
Dakota, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri
kentucky show a heavy decrease.
south Dakota ranks with Kansas in
showing an increase for rye and
barley, while all the other states show
decreases while North Dakota Illinois
q Kentucky show "notably lessu.
This circular is sent broad cast
throughout the middle west. It mere.
~ backs up the government and
6undreds OF private reports in placing
South Dakota at the head of the list.
OF states: We show q fine crop of all
kinds. No other state In the union
does. South Dakota is getting the
prestige to which it is entitled. And
hundreds of thousands of farmers
investors, business men, ,promoters
people generally read these reports
and give us the credit due.
IL Is a great year for South Dakota.

Some Of the democratic papers

Some Of the democratic papers
are grieving over the fact that
the president and secretary of
war permitted Gen. Miles to re-
tire without expressing their
regrets. Gen. Miles was q
brave soldier when in the field,
but for the last few years his
fighting has been entirely with
his brother officers and the
commander-ln-chief of the army.
II the latter had expressed any
regret at the retirement of the
lieutenant general the world
would have known that he was
not sincere in the sentiments
expressed, and Roosevelt is not
the kind to gush without any
feeling back of his words. Right
or wrong il his estimate Of
Miles the president was certaiply
in refusing to throw any
b0quets at e retiring Office,
whom he was glad to be rid of.

AS a matter of fact the talk of
genuine free trade, burning up
the custom houses, ETC., etc.. will
never again constitute an effec-
tive shibboleth for the Demo
Gratis: the only kind of tariff cry
at which they "a hope to win
would be some such one as Mr..
German would approve-protec-
ton but slightly modified-in
other words, tariff reform has
lost its potency as a Democratic
compaign slogan; but the Demo.
Gratis need few more whippings
and defeats before they will
come to realize the fact.

The first three months of this
year 300 people were killed and
1884 injured in train accidents.
Other kinds of accidents, includ-
ing those sustained by employees
while at work, run up the total
casualties to 1927 killed and H.
481 injured. That these accidents
cannot be put down entirely to
the fault of the passengers and
employees themselves is shown
by the factthatduringth the quarter
under consideration 1850 trains
were in collision and 1881 trains
were derailed.

National Educational AssOcta-
ton Resolutions

Following are some of the
resolutions adopted by the
| National Educational Association
at Boston, Mass, last month:
The United States Bureau OF Educa-
| ton has amply proved its usefulness
to the nation. Its publications are
standard works of reference for school
officers and teachers everywhere. The
| Bureau of Education should be made
an independent administrative depart
ment. such as were the departments
of agriculture and of labor before
their elevation to cabinet rank.
Sufficient appropriations should be
made by the congress to enable the
commissioner of education to extend
i the scope and add to the usefulness OF
his work. =,
Teaching in the public schools will
not be a suitably attractive and
permanent career nor will it command
as much of the ability of the country
as it should, until the teachers are
properly compensated and are assured
of an undisturbed tenure during
efficiency and good behavior. A large
part of a teachers reward must always
be the pleasure in the character and
quality of the work done: but the
money compensation of the teacher
| should be sufficient to maintain an
appropriate standard of living.
Legislative measures to give support
to these principles deserve the approval
of the press and the people.
The highest ethical standards OF
conduct and of speech should be
insisted upon among teachers. 1t Is
not becoming that commercialism or
self-seeking should shape their actions,
or that intemperance should mark
their utterances. odeofprofessional
conduct clearly understood and rigor-
ously enforced by public opinion IS
being slowly developed, and will
| doubtless, one day control all teachers
worthy of the name.
1t is important that school buildings
and school grounds should be planned
and decorated SO as tO serve as etfec-
tive agencies for educating not only
the children but the people as a whole
in matters of taste. The school
becoming more and more a community
center, and it's larger opportunities
impose new obligations. School
bullulLlSS SIloulu pC CuUL uSVANO oS "Sll
as healthful, and the adjoining grounds
should be laid out and planned with
appropriateness and beauty.
Disregard forlaw and its established
modes of procedure is as serious a
danger as can menace a democracy,
The restraint of passion by respect
for law is a distinguishing mark of
civilized beings. To throw off that
restraint, whether by appeals to brutal
instincts or by specious pleas for a
law of nature which is superior to the
laws of man, is to revert to barbarism.
1t is the duty of the school so to lay
the foundations of character in the
young that they will grow up with a
reverence for the majesty Of the law.
Any system of school discipline which
disregards this obligation is harmful
to the child and dangerous to the state.
A democracy which would endure
must be as law-abiding as it is liberty
loving.
