Men as School-Teachers.

How TO hold good man in the school
field is even more important problem
than how to get him there, says the
Forum. Fair salaries, progressively in
creaslng as the years roll on and the
service improves, will do something. But
Insecure tenure of office and the reex-
animation evil have driven more men
out OF teaching than inadequate pay.
present usage permits any school SUI
perintendent to brush aside with one
sweep of the hand all the past record of
a candidate and to subject him to more
or less absurd literary tests. So firmly
Is this practice established that the
average school superintendent cannot
even get himself to think of any other
plan for determining the qualifications
OF teacher. The procedure in vogue is
something like this: A principalship
paying $1,000 or more becomes vacant.
The superintendent advertises the fact
Tar and wide to attract candidates. AS
rule, he has decided in his mind whom
he wants to appoint before the exam
ination is held, and the test is shaped
accordingly. Nevertheless, without one
pang of conscience he will put the vari-
GUS candidates to the expense of COM
ing to his examination. Can we blame
men for. turning away from teaching?
There will be no real change of attitude
toward teaching as life work until
teachers are afforded an opportunity to
earn diplomas absolving them for ever
more from the humiliating ordeal of re-
examination.

Drinkers Not Wanted.
KANSAS

The mental deterioration of old aleo-
holics is so well known to every physi-
clan, and is so often brought to his no.
tice in daily practice, that it>occasions
some surprise to learn that 1t is not gen.
orally recognized by the public who are
more concerned with the results of the
acute poisonings. They know, says
American Medicine, of the loss of judg-
ment due to even slight overindulgence,
and in self-defense are now insisting
upon total abstinence in their employees.
The travelling public in particular de-
mand that the engineer or ships officer
shall be clear-headed and free of alco-
hol, and the merchant or manufacturer
needs Medicines in his agents.
But they all have failed to realize the
seriousness of the mental changes due
TO long-continued overindulgence SIM
ply because these cases are gradually
thrust aside in the struggle for exist
ence, and are never given an oppor-
tunity to show incapacity in great af-
fairs Of modern times are temperate or
abstaners, as rule, and have retained
their mental vigor by reason of those
habits. Chronic alcoholism among the
Russians may explain, in part, at least,
some of the results of the war in Man
churia. On the Japanese side the re-
ports are all of one tenor, and depict an
almost universal abstinence. What
drinking is done is in extreme modera-
ton. Upon the Russian side we hear
OF immense stores of vodka, cham
payne by carload lots, and orgies in
Vulnerable. The Russian officer is no
torious, by general report, of course, for
the large quantities of alcohol he daily
consumes, and it is impossible for any
brain to submit to such insults without
undergoing the changes long known to
take place in heavy drinkers. 1t is not
remarkable then that the older officers,
who are managing the campaign, are
constantly outwitted by the healthy
minded Japanese. 1t is apparently not
SO much question of drunkenness as
1t is one of pathological results of long
continued excessive drinking without
drunkenness. The alcoholic lesson of
the Japanese war will not doubt be ap-
preciated by the American people, who
are particularly sensitive to such mat
tiers. They will take it to heart and will
speak in no uncertain terms when they
learn how dangerous to the nations well
fare 1t is to trust military power to a
chronic alcoholic.

Fresh country air is wholesome
and a sovereign remedy for many of
the ills that affiict the weary city
dweller. The tendency in this coun-
try, observes the Nashville (Tenn.)
Banner, has been too&huch to crowd
into the great cities, and many of the
poor of the slums and overtaxed tene-
ments would be greatly benefited if
they could be removed to the farms.
The magazines that encourage the
love of rural life are doing a great
work, and not the least feature of their
mission is the cultivation of the aes-
thetic quality. They promote a love
for the beautiful in nature that will
result in the preservation of much of
the natural loneliness of the country
that has been too ruthlessly dealt with
by the unappreciative utilitarian in the
past.

Just Discrimination in Railway Rates
ALI railroad men qualified to speak
on the subject in a responsible way are
likely to agree with President Samuel
Spencer. OF the Southern railway. when
he says: There is no division Of opin-
ion as to the desirability of stopping
all secret or unjustly discriminatory
devices and practices of whatsoever
character"
Mr.. Spencer, in speaking of unjust
ly discriminatory" rates and devices,
makes distinction which is at once
apparent to common sense. There may
be discrimination in freight rates which
Is just, reasonable and imperatively re-
Quired by the complex commercial and
geographical conditions with which ex-
pert rate makers have to deal. To abol-
ish such open and honest discrimination
might paralyze the Industries of cities,
states and whole sections Of our national
territory.
This distinction between just and un-
Just discrimination is clearly recognized
In the conclusions of the International
Railway Congress, published yester-
day:
Tariffs should be based on commercial
principles. taking into account the special
conditions which bear upon the CONNER
cial value Of the services rendered. With
the reservation that rates shall be charged
without arbitrary discrimination to all
shippers alike under like conditions. the
making of rates should as far as possible
have all the elasticity necessary to permit
the development of the traffic and to pro.
duce the greatest results to the public and
to the railroads themselves"
The present proposal is, as Mr.. Walker
D. Hines, of Louisville. showed in his
remarkable testimony the other day
before the senate committee at Wash
ington, to crystalline flexible and justly
discriminatory rates into fixed govern
ment rates which cannot be changed
except by the Intervention of some gov
eminent tribunal, and by this very
process to increase 'the temptation to
depart from the published rate and the
lawful rate in order to meet some over
towering and urgent commercial con-
dition."-New York Sun.

Car is Attached.

Monday evening Deputy Sheriff Van
Rowe levied an execution upon one
of the street cars owned by the Dav-
export & Suburban Railway company
and placed Ed Brehmer the eX-police
officer, in charge of it pending the set
tlement of the case of the Buda Foun-
dry and Manufacturing company VS.
the Davenport & Suburban Railway
company. 1t was one OF the cars not
in operation, which was standing in
the yards opposite the old Saenger-
fest hall, near Fourth and Green
street. that was attached. The execu-
ton was made to secure $469.35 being
a judgment with interest entered
against the d. & S. company on Fri
day last. The demand for the pay
ment of the amount of the judgment
was met with a fiat refusal. Messrs.
Sharon & Donegan, of the ID. & S.
company, represented that the Buda
concern was rather in the debt of the
ID. & S. because of faulty construction
of the crossings, which were either too
narrow of too wide, for the purposes
intended. Sharon & DOnegan filed an
amendment to this claim for damages
wherein they allege that Clerk Gruen-
wald. in disregard of the rights OF
the D. & S. company, caused to be is
sued a writ of execution, which was
served by the sheriff's deputy. Where

possession of the car until the dispute

ger yesterday afternoon refused to
grant the injunction. and sustained the

Meet Once a Month.

At a meeting of the Davenport Bus
mess Mems association several impor-
tant changes were adopted in the by
laws. One of the changes was the
adoption of a resolution to hereafter
meet in regular session but once a
month, instead of twice a month. as
has been the custom in the past The
regular meeting night in future will be
on the third Monday of each month.
Special meetings may be called at any
time by the president of the associa-
ton when there is business on hand
which warrants it. a change was also
made in the amount of the annual dues
at the last meeting. For some time
these have been SO for each person
who holds a membership card in the
association. At Monday nights meet
ing the rate was placed at SIS for in
dividuals and $25 for corporations and

CAUSE OF DEATH OF MAN
FOUND IN SNOW UNKNOWN
Empty Bottles Found in Pockets
Lends Strong Suspicion,
However.

cause of death unknown" was the
verdict found by the cOrOner's jury
which held an inquest over the re
mains of Joe Olsen, the man who was
found dead in the snow between the
corn cribs near ProphetstOwn, the
story of which was published in The
Argus yesterday. A physician, after a
careful examination, said that death
was surely not due to freezing. Work
ing on another theory, he made the
positive assertion that it was not apo
plexy which caused the death. neither
was it heart failure. The evidence
proved that the man was last seen go
ing away from Prophetstown Friday
afternoon. At that time he was under
the influence of liquor. When the
body was found there were two empty
pint whisky TASKS in the pockets,
some money, two big plugs of chew
ing tobacco and several bags of smOk-
ing tobacco. The mystery of his
death may be cleared somewhat in the
minds of most people by these find
ings. but the jury could not name the
cause of his demise.

MOLINE MENTION.
Moline Children Have Itch.

Investigating the report that itch is
prevalent among the pupils of the
Itidgeyiew school, the directors of the
district have made the discovery that
the big sister of the eastern suburb
IS more amenable to suspicion than
her dimunitive relative. For it IS the
testimony of physicians whom the di-
rectCrs consulted that a number of
children of Moline are afflicted with
the disease and it develops that what
trace of the trouble has appeared in
the Ridgeview school is confined to a
few children afflicted with a rash. In
quiry among the doctors establishes
the fact that the few cases which re
sembIe genuine itch are confined to a
territory east of the Ridgeview dis
trict. and it is said that a case or two
exists in the Grenell school. Bat the
doctors inclined to the view that the
prevalence of the disease was moro
marked in the city.
