THE MONTANA RAILROAD.
Contractor McShane Thinks the Road
Will be Completed by the Mid
die Of October.
(Bute Inter- Mountain. J


Railroad communication between
Lewistown and the outside world will
be established by the middle of Octo-
Der. perhaps earlier.
Scarcity of labor has hampered the
contractors who are building the ex.
tension of the Montana railroad from
Harlowton to the county seat of Fer.
gus county.
As soon as the harvest work is oy-
er and more men can be hired 1t is
the expectations of the contractors
that the work Of building the exteIl-
sion of the railroad will make more
progress.
T. j. McShane. of the firm OF j. Fl.
McShane G. company, Omaha railroad
contractors, who are building the line,
Is in Butte for the purpose of hiring
men II possible. He sent out abont
% last night and hopes to secure
more today and tomorrow.
I'VE have about Al miles Of the
road graded" said Mr.. McShane at
the Fnlen today. I'VE have 20 miles
more to grade. The rails have been
laid as far as Garneill, which is two
miles through the Judith gap. or about
81 miles from Harlowton.
I'VE have been bothered in getting
men. We have $50 men at work now
and | have come to Butte for the pur-
pose of getting more If possible.
men are unusually scarce. Har-
vesting Is taking all the surplus men.
AS soon as the crops are harvested
expect we will get plenty OF men.
There is a little heavy work on the
81 miles of road WI contracted to
build for the company. II will be laid
| with 57-pound rails and be a good
| niece of track when finished.
1--WE expect to have the grading
completed by the middle OF next
month and the track ought to be laid
by the middle of October, and per
haps sooner.
'That road Is going to open up i
great country. IL will place Butte
and other Montana towns In direct
| connection with one OF the richest
farming and mining communities IN
the west.
81 ,think Lewistown is about the
best town in the west today. The
ranching and mining interests around
there are away ny.
"Outside of the Gallatin valley.
which, of course, has been settled
many years longer than the judith
Basin country, I doubt II there Is a
richer farming community In the en-
tire state"

Lock.sTEP IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Some of the Imperfeetions Of Our
Graded School System and
the Remedy.
Helena independently

tiicicud luuCpCuuCht.
One of the most serious objections
made by parents to the work Of the
public schools, and this objection up.
plies as well to Montana schools as
to those of other states, Is that they
partake somewhat OF a machine char
acter. Forty pupils are In a grade,
we will say. Among them some are
very bright, others are just average,
while still others are stupid. For six
months the entire 40 are compelled
to do the same work. The brightest
find 1t easy to keep up with the work,
the less quick find 1t hard work, and
the stupid are always away In the
rear. But for six months the teacher
tries with all of her power to keep
the 40 marching together.
AS a result of the system the
brightest do not have enough to do
and they fall into mischief and care
less habits, while the stupid ones be-
come disguised and disheartened-
hate the school room and the teach
er. William ]. Shearer, principal IL
the Elizabeth, N. j., public schools,
calls the system the "lock-step." and
the term appears to be a peculiarly
apt one. For a number Of years Prof
essor Shearer has been writing and
working against this lock-step, and
his articles on the subject in the At
lantic Monthly and other leading
journals have attracted much atten-
ton.
Professor Shearer has not only writ.
ten in opposition to the system, but
he has put that opposition In practi-
cal form by carrying out his ideas In
the schools of Elizabeth. The New
Jersey town has a population Of co..
900, and this is the plan followed In
the schools there:
No teacher need retain in any class
any pupil not fitted for the work OF
the class. No teacher Is required or
permitted to take any class owe the
work faster than they can do the
work thoroughly. No pupil below the
grammar grade is permitted to have
any home study. In the higher grades
they are not permitted to have more
than one hours home work. From
five to eight per cent are re-classliej
each month, that they may be where
they can work to advantage.
AS a result OF the system but few
have lost and se~venty.ive per cent
have gained time. The attendance In
the higher grades has increased great
ly and that of the high school has In
creased over four hundred per cent
snice the plan was adopted.
