SCHOOL OFFICIALS AT WABASS0
Discuss Rural School Consolidation and
Other School Questions.

Despite the very unpleasant day.
the drifting snow and bad wind
some thirty progressive school trus-
tees. ten teachers and few friends
of education, did meet in the town
ball at Wabasso Saturday afternoon,
an 10th, and in very informal
way talked with Supt. Race abou t
several vital questions. The rural
school consolidation and Transports
ton of pupils attracted a great
deal OF attention and provoked much
discussion. The pros and cons
OF the topic were honestly talked
over. How to do this and how and
when and where to begin it were
talked over. Seaforth. Morgan,
Wabasso Red wood Falls. and Vesta
were considered good points with
which to begin to test the plan. 1t
would probably cost more than our
present plan. but it would give us
better schools. better teachers,
more uniform attendance. a greater
number of months of schools for our
children and better school houses,
and better health for the pupils. The
pupils would arrive at the school
house in a better condition physi-
cally and morally. By a vote of IA
to s the conference pledged itself to
the support of the plan and to work
to bring it to a test A. D. Stewart,
A. G. Miller, J. H. Bowers, Nels
Haag, Fl. H. Dahl, VIM Lindemann,
George Boeckler, J. F. Barnum and
John Linquist firmly and courage
ously expressed themselves in favor
of the plan as the only solution of
this vexing problem of how to keep
our boys aud girls at home until
ready for higher education. Sever
al teachers were asked to express
themselves as to the efficacy of the
plan. Heating and ventilation came

in for a discussion. Here several
teachers got onto their feet and told
how we'll the plan worked. The
rooms were uniformly heated. The
air was always fresh and pure The
pupils could do and did much bet
ter work and they, the teachers,
could work better. John Linquist
clerk of No. 40. testified that the
pupils in his school were IN every
way better. healthier and happier
Shall the trustees at the meeting Of
its board elect one of their members
to act as committee on teachers
and text books, with power to act
when necessary. Several officials
testified how difficult it was many
times to hire a teacher legally, be
cause the board Of trustees could
not be got together without 50 much
rouble.
LET us do business in a business
way" said many. The board should
after the annual meeting get -r1n-
er and map out its work and dlvide
the work to be done and authorize
in legal way some one Of It's mem
bers to act. The question of salary
Of teachers came up Cor some inter
esting discussion. \ good male
teacher with first grade certificate
can easily get $50 per month. Soren
Hanson of No. 80 said. IF you, MIR.
Race, can give us good male teach
er wko meets these conditions, we
will pay $50 per month.
The poor out house came in for its
share of attention. Tbs thing must
go and we must have good storm
proof and wind proof water closets
in the place of these poor ones
which now are unfit for use and
which jeopardize the health Of our
pupils. The meeting adjourned to
meet again some time in June, in
Redwood Falls. Judge Bowers in
vited the association to come to the

While Supremacy Established.

When the Vardaman agitation
began, Mississippi was prosper
ing as it had never done before.
White supremacy had been firm
ly established, first, by force in
1875, and afterwards by law in
the adoption of the constitution
of 1890, and this constitution has
been upheld by the supreme
court Of the United States. tits
the widest vagary to assert that
our people are confronted by any
phase of the race question that
threatens in the remotest degree
the social, industrial or political
supremacy of the whites. There
is, however, no question but that
the extreme and unceasing APP
peals to race prejudice made BY
a prominent candidate for gov

harm.

Lincoln County critzz Club Answers
Scvrrilous Campaign DOc-
ument.

A sample of the abuse and
methods resorted to by Varda-
mans friends is contained in a
circular, started at this late day,
headed, "A Criminal, Not Saint.
Judge Critz charged with Grim
inality in the use of Doodle in his
canvass and dared to arraign
his accusors in the civil or crimi-
nal courts. (signed) Abe Stein
berger and Sons.
When the Gallilean carpenter,
the hope of Christendom, was ma
ligned before PLATE, in all proba-
bility just such defamers as Abe
Steinberger and Sons were pres
.ent demanding his blood. And
Abe Steinberger and Sons begin
their TRADE by saying:
Now listen: We charge that
the campaign waged BY THE
PROFESSED CHRIS TIAN
GENTLEMAN, Judge +. A.
Critz, by his political manager,
G ol. Levy, is the most unblush-
ing Doodle campaign ever waged
within the corporate limits of
this State''.

W ould listen for a moment to this
silly twaddle, by Abe Steinberg-
er and Sons, with its obvious in
tent.
Judge Critz was Confederate
soldier in Forests Cavalry; assist
ed in ridding the State from negro
and carpet bag rule, and has hon
ored every position of trust i'm
posed upon him. Abe Steinberg
er, who is carpet bagger from
Kansas, has not forgiven him for
this for these SO years.
Judge Critz advocates uniform
system of text books for public
schools and is for law and order,
the only policy to continue the pre-
sent prosperity and advancement
of the State. He demonstrated
his ability as lawyer in success

LONGING in MEMPHIS.
The Governor Talks About the Recent
Senatorial Race.

Memphis, Tenn, Aug. 10
Governor A. HI. Longino spent
today In Memphis, returning to
Jackson tonight. During the day
the distinguished Mississippian
shook hands with many friends,
whose greeting was none the less
cordial because of the result of
the recent senatorial primaries in
that State. Concerning the guber-
natorial run-of between Varda-
man and Critz, Governor Longino

ANOTHER CAMPAIGN LIE NAILED.
A Silly Story Shown Up-The Fiction
BureaV Will Now Have to Get
Something Else.

jackson Evening News, Aug. 1871
The Vicksburg Post Jackson
correspondent sent out story
yesterday to the effect that the
New York World had printed a
statement from President Roose-
velt that he would give fifty
thousand dollars to see Varda-
man defeated for Governor of
Mississippi. The News to-day
telegraphed the World asking if
this was true. The following re.
ply was received just before 60
ing to press with the second edi-
ton;
THE World never printed any
such statement from Roosevelt. .
THE World"
The story invented by the Var
daman campaign committee is a
stupid lie on its face. Roosevelt
and Mark Hanna would great
deal quicker give $50, 900 to have
Vardaman elected than contribute
one cent to see him defeated, be.
cause if he is elected, it will be
worth thousands of votes tc
the Republican party in the close
Northern and Western States.
Vardaman's election is what the
Northern Republicans are sitting
up nights praying for.
The leader. [volume] (Brookhaven, Miss.) 1895-1905, 1903-08-22
Mr.. Vardaman are much mistak-

en-. From the first the negroes
who have attended the political
gatherings have been observed to
listen with close attention to the
speeches, and they have been
very much alarmed by the dem
onstrations of approval made by
thoughtless or over-enthusiastic
whites when stirring appeals
/ We're made to race hatred. Evi-
IDENTIFY they are much concerned
to know if these sentiments will
be endorsed by the white people
of the state.
The average negro believes
THAT the white man can accom-
lphsh anything he may desire,
even to the extent of putting the
negroes back into slavery. The
more intelligent of them may be
convinced that this is lot exactly
true, but the great majority
would at least have doubts on the
subject, and if they should con-
clude that it was the wish of the
white people of Mississippi to re-
enslave them they would not hes
ltate to move out of the State.
Herein lies thegreat danger from
the present appeals to race ha-
tired and prejudice.
For the present, at least, Mis-
sissippi is dependent upon the
negro as a laborer. tits his pres
|ence in large numbers, especially
in the great Delta, and in the
lumber districts, that is bringing
untold wealth and prosperity to
our people. Suppose the white
voters of Mississippi should en-
dorse Vardaman, and, as result
a considerable proportion of these
laborers should move into Ten
nessee, Louisiana, Arkansas, Al
ALBANIA or other states. as they
could easily do, what then? Who
will say that this result would
not be injurioust to the best inter
ests of our state?
The negro in Mississippi is
now practically excluded from
the ballot box and the jury box,
and is separated from the whites
at hotels, theaters and in all pub
lie conveyances. He is given a
small proportion of the school
fund, less than what he pays him
self, and even this is administer
ed by the whites. Mississippi
wiz let well enough alone and
will elect to the chief magistracy
man of broadand statesmanlike
views, an ex-Confederate soldier,
and jurist of established repu-
tation and conservatism, Judge
Frank A. Critz. The state owes
him and her other distinguished
son, the Hon. E. F. Noel, debt
of gratitude for combating with
so much force and ability the
heresies attempted to be fasten-
ed in the minds of the people in
this remarkable canvass.-Clar-
