MAIL LINE TO TORRANCE.
Bids Are Advertised for and This
Probably Means That the Auto
Line Will Get the
Contract.


Notice Of advertisement for bids

Torrance and from Torrance to Ros-
well was posted in the local post Office
today by Postmaster Kellahin, upon
order of George B. Cortelyou, Post
master GenefaI,i The notice calls
for a daily service each way, Sunday
Included. The mail is to leave Ros-
well at one p. m. each day and reach
Torrance no later than 10 a. m. the
same day. 1t is to leave Torrance at
a. m. and reach Roswell no later
than IL O'Clock NOON. The distance
is 10 miles. The bidder must accom-
pany their bid with bond of $4,000
to make it worth consideration.
There will probably be but one bid
for the route. and that will be by the
Roswell Automobile Company, in fact
it was this company the inspector
had in mind when he arranged to
have the route established. The au-
TO company will probably get the con-
tract. If it does. better service will
be required in that it will be daily
and made possible from a financial
standpoint. 1t means a big advance
for the auto company

Public School Notes.

The enrolment for the year has
reached 925, the greatest for the
first three months in the history of
the school.
Arrangements have been made pro-
viding all-day sessions for the second
grade Pupils Of that grade now re-
main in the school all day with COM
fort.
The enrolment of pupils who have
come to Roswell with their parents
for the winter is unusually large.
The music work j. a decidedly i'm
portant feature of the school this
year. The singing in the high school
will please any lover of good music,
while the advancement the grades
are making in the rudiments Of music
will probably be a surprise to any
one who doubts whether music can
be taught successfully in the public
schools. Meantime the three RS"
are not being neglected.
The school has had some visitors,
but many of them have been stran-
gers looking about town. Every pat
ron of the school should take time
to visit the school, make the acquain-
tance of his child's teacher, and see
what is being done.
Mrs Peacock is out of her room to-
day, as a result of a painful accident
on the stairs Tuesday evening. We
hope she may be able to be in her
room again very soon.

| Another General Strike Ordered, and
the Government in Panic.

high source that a Ukase will be is.

of the imperial domain, which covers
almost one-third of European Russia,
and which at present is the property
of the Emperor and the Grand Dukes,
will be given to the peasants.
st. Peters burg, Nov. 15-The pro-
letariat of st. Petersburg has sum-
moned another general political strike
beginning today at noon. This action
was decided upon late last night by
the workmen'S strike committee
which is now completely under the
lists, whose leaders proclaim that
their ultimate object is the complete
overthrow of the monarchy and the
establishment of a democratic repub-
lie. The proclamation says: THE I'm
perial government continues to walk
bold soldiers and sailors of Cron-
stadt who die in defense of their
rights and natural freedom. 1t encir-
cles weak and oppressed Poland with
an iron ring of martial law
An appeal is made to the strike
committees throughout Russia TO
join the movement, and appeals to
railroad men with view of bringing
about another general tie-up.
The strike commenced promptly
ON the Warsaw and Baltic railways,
and it is announced that all others
will follow suit. The workmen of the
Putiloff iron works and some other
factories declined to join the strike.
Should a general strike again spread
over the country, the governments
position might be rendered desper-
ate. 1t is impotent now to deal with
the many questions confronting it,
and might be terrorized into making
further concessions.

tempts at coercion.
The latest reports from Vladivos-
took indicate that the rioting has not
yet been suppressed. Both the sail
ors and the fortress artillerymen par
ticipated in the outbreak. The COM
mandant lost his head, the situation
got beyond his control, and energet-
ic measures were not taken until a
large part of the city had been des-

cording to one report, 800 rioters,
mostly sailors and artillerymen, were
killed or wounded during the first

Organized self government of
children by children for children, is
in successful operation in many of
the schools of New York, Philadel-
phia, and other localities. 1t ought
to be introduced everywhere, for it
has solved the problem of munici.
pal politics, and has vindicated the
wisdom of representative government
irrespective of sex. Like the system
of Juvenile COURTS" as substitute
for ordinary police supervision, it
has proved its superior efficiency,
and has come to stay.
The first trial of the new system
was made in disorderly school of
more than 1000 pupils in one of the
suburbs of New York. The whole
discipline of the school was placed
in the hands of the children them
selves. They elect Mayor and
Council. Their teachers are present
at the meetings of the Council, and
retain ultimate authority, but rarely
exercise it. Formerly the constant
presence of policemen was required
on the play grounds. Within a week,
with the right and responsibility of
governing themselves, the school be-
came orderly and law abiding.
In these miniature republics of
boys and girls, governing themselves
and each other by universal suffrage,
holding their own courts, making and
enforcing their own laws, no special
Legislative or private interest has
any chance. There is no graft, no
Doodle, no collusion between their
police and wrong doers.
President Roosevelt has commend
ed the teaching of civics by their ad-
mirable plan. Many eminent edu
Gators give it their enthusiastic ap.
proval. But if children, without
1 distinction of sex, have thus demon
J; strated their ability to carry on gov
ernment. how long will it be before
j; the same principle will be applied t.
t all citizens, men and women, will
simular benefce"t results?
