no MORE POLITICS N THE SCHOOLS.
The first official communication Of the Com
missioner Of Education to the Board of Regents
ut their informal meeting on Thursday con-
tanned many good things, but nothing better
than this:
So far as politics IS concerned the legislative
leaders Of one OF the great political parties nave
recently charged the other with subordinatlnS
the educational system TO the interests OF party
This has been Indignantly denied. Both sides
have taken position against lt. Every true man
must take the same attitude. Public sentiment
has advanced and will sustain US In maintain
ing that any levie3 upon the educational service,
any use Of the machinery, or any exercise or
the influence of the school system TO promote
partisan or sectarian ends shall be held su-
preTne educational offence. This creates a finer
educational opportunity than any other which
has developed in the history OF the state We
shall be derelict il we do not cooperate warmly
20 make the most Of It.
That is a platform on which the Regents will
undoubtedly rejoice to take their stand with DIR.

Mr. Iittleton is new I'm Office That may &C
count for his restlessness under the control of
the Controller. quite apart from any asperity
growing out of the last election. As both won
out. there Is no particular reason for their con

cured Offices which we have been assured they
did not want. and they might dwell together in
unity under the auspices of the genial Mayor.

acquired The habit of managing everything.

conduct the schools better than The Board OF
Education, detect and punish crime better than
The District Attorney. administer departments
better than their heads. and preside over the

him ready 10 run the government and when the

ENGLAND AND FRANCE.

Edward VII certainly bids fair 10 be known
both as a diplomat among kings and as king
among diplomats. We should hesitate 20 say
without looking up the record in Just how many
Gases already his tact ana concilatory common
sense have smOOthed 'the way TO better under
standings and improved relations between his
own and other countries. but unquestonably
they have been numerous Most notable Of all,
and most important thus Ear, has been the
anelioration OF Anglo-FreDch relations 1t may
seen, from one point Of view. to have been
easy, remembering the personal popularity Ed
ward VII has long enjoyed in France From
another. considering the almost traditional ami
mostly between the two powers and the
French alliance with Russia, not 10 mention
some of the temperamental characteristics Of
the French people. Il would seem to have been
difficult But easy or difficult. the credit for
sts achievement must largely be given 10 the
personal influence Of the English sovereign.
The settlement which is reported TO have
been made appears to be marked with ad-
nlirablc common sense and justice. France
we are told, win renquish, for cash and
other considerations her rights on the coast Of
Newfoundland. That is well. For years the
French Shore" arrangement has not only out
lived it's usefulness. but has been a positive
evil and a burden 10 all concerned. England

lobster canneGIes which still remain upon that
coast, and then both nations viii rejoice and

an anachronism. In Egypt the accomplished

the other corner Of the continent France will

concerned.
The importance 10 the world at large Of such
a settlement IS scarcely 70 toe estimated. Its

Report of Russian Rererse Doubted
by Army and NdUy officers.
rnn,t TIE rR1RrNr nrRrAr.l


washington. April s.-Not much faith IS placed
by military and naval experts here IN the re-
port by way of London and Paris of fresh de-
feat sustained by the Russians near the Yalu
River Army people for the most part have con-
ndepce in PussIa and until something authentic
comes in regard to tine repulse Of the Russians
If IS probable that this confidence will not be
disturbed So far as may be judged from Wash
ington the Japanese appear TO control the sit
uation on the Corean side of the Yalu River.
and the opinion prevails that the Russians are
as impregnably established the Manchurian
side. Future events in military way must de-
pend entirely on the strength Of the opposing
forces. and concerning this the Washington ex-
perts can learn nO.hng. a difference Of opinion
exists to-day in regard to the policy Of the
Japanese. Popular notion credits the strategtstS
of that force with the desire to assume the ag-
gressive and this, of course. would Take the
Japanese across the Yalu into the domain of the
Russians. No at present seems to think
that the Russians are entertaining the plan of
penetrating into COrea. The dearth of news for
the last week has given opportunity for untram
meIled conjecture. But most Of the army and
navy officers whose views are worth quoting
admit they have nothing on which to base
opinion.
The War Department will soon select army
officer to represent this government as military
attache with the Russian armies in the field
and to take the place of Captain George y.
Galley, of the Artillery Corps, who Is too I'll in
Manila to proceed with the three army officers
recently assigned to this duty by permission OF
the Russian authorities.
