TO DECIDE ON CANAL.
Meetings of Committee to Be Held
 Every Other Day.

Washington, November 6.-The last meeting of the sub-committees of the board of consulting engineers of the Isthmian canal commission, was held to- day. Tomorrow the board will meet and after that meetings will be held probably every day until the final decision is reached.
 The duty of the board will be to de- eide what kind of a canal shall be dug across the isthmus. and to give a general outline of the work. It will make no de- cision about the details or work out any plans. These will have to be made after 1t has been decided what kind of a ca- nal will be built and will take considera- ble time, probably more than a year, and meantime preparations can be made on the isthmus for the accommodation of 2i,000 workmen necessary for the work of building the canal and the 300 miles of railroad required in the digging of the Culebra cut.

PRIMARY PROGRESS.

Indications from Bismarck seem to in
dicate that there will be a primary law
passed, but that it will have but little re-
semblance to the original bill that passed
the senate. On the other hand, it is
likely to be an improvement in that it
will not so radical departure from the
present law and principles, as to compel
the voter to spend SO much time in find
ing his way to the election booth through
a lab rinth of red tape.
If it is possible to throw sufficient safe
guards around the present laws to correct
or mitigate the present evils, it would
seem better way than to turn the whole
thing upside down and trust to luck tor
the outcome.
Gradual changes based on actual ex-
perience ought to be better method
than radical changes based on guesswork
and hap hazard.

HIGHER EDUCATION.

| Our friends, the school ma'ams, of
whom we are proud to say we were once,
annually meet in state conventions and
resolve that the teacher is great and
ought to be greater, that he isn't proper
ly appreciated or paid, all of which is
true.
But how can it be helped? The radi-
cal trouble is, exactly the same as with
other labor problems, supply and de-
mand. In all labor there is as rule an
unlimited supply of unframed material,
and scarcity of trained and capable
workmen. An in no line of labor is this
more true than in teaching.
The high schools and even county
schools are yearly turning out thousands
OF girls and boys who eagerly seek the
positions of "cheap" teachers.
| There are thousands of small district
schools with an average attendance OF
from six to dozen children of less than
ten years of age where the cheap teachers
readily find employment.
Not one in fifty of these teachers ever
intend to make teaching livelihood,
not one in hund red will ever follow it
up. 1t is a mere stepping stone to mar
riage on the part of the female and to
other professions by the male.
On the other hand what has the real,
educated, trained teacher to look for
ward to. He is nomad. Four years
at a place is long term. He can there
for make no permanent home. When
he is fifty he has become too old for
further service. He has no present, no
future. There may be 'room on top" in
this profession as in others-but the same
BRAIN, training and personal attributes
that will bring teacher to the top in
twenty years would make successful
lawyer or doctor in half the time-And
the revenue all along will be, vastly
greater.
Brethren of the teaching profession
these are your problems. 1t will take
all your knowledge of all the higher
sciences, 10 solve them. they are hard
cold facts, not theories, that face YOU.
