THE PUBLIC AS REFORMER.


In one of his matchless speeches
on his southern tour, President
Roosevelt made a statement
anent the present era of crime
in high places that deserves more
than passing notice. Discussing
the present disclosure IF crime
/ in financial circles, he stated that
l'while the government could do
much to bring the criminal to
justice, and by .legislatye: mate
rally aid in preventing these or
similar evils in the future:
there are many things which
could only be reformed by the
action of the public itself, not
IN a campaign Of education, but
by refusingtoito:! assist lin the
earring out of the schemes Of
public plumber. The truth of
| this must be apparent to even a
casuael observer. Thousands of
people are now appalled-mor-
ally shocked-because the state
Investigation of the New York

very fact has been the boast of
every two by four solicitor of
that company for ten year. The
very mortuary tables that the in,
surance companies have been
issuing for years show that the
money asked in premiums for the
time of the life expectancywould,

vast accommodations of surplus
OF these concerns have been
advertised for years, and their
enormous size cited as an evil
dence of the strength of the CON-
pany. Then when it is learned
that this same surplus-the ex-
cess paid by the. policy holders
above the actual cost of insur-
ance--has been loaned to officers
and directors at absurdly low
rates of interest to finance gigan-
tic deals whose profits went to
the officers and directors per
sonallly. the public wonders why
such corruption has been per-
mltted to exist and cries out
against the laws that allow it.
AS President Roosevelt tersely
pointed out, these and scores of
other evils today can be remedied
only by the action of the public
IN refusing to be or become a
part of these schemes. The
great trouble is that the public
IN its mad rush for money, does
not take time to read beneath
the surface, and accepts every
thing at it's face value, espec-
tally if it has the ring of large
profits on small investments.
When the people refuse to lend
a helping hand to the concerns
that seek to plumber the public,
the reform will have been large
ly accomplished.

FFICIAL PAPER OF THE COUNTY AND
THE CITY OF DEVILS LAKE.
THE COMMERCIAL COLLEGE,

,, A prominent business man
recently gave an interesting ac-
count of his experience with the
people sent out by the modern
business college. 1t, is not the
policy of this paper to knock
the modern business college, for
a great work has been done by
them. In recent years, however,
they have sprung up like mush
rooms, and thousands of young
men and women are being sent
out from them the theoretric-
ally prepared to engage in bust
ness, who are no more qualif-
ed for the work than a Tennessee
moonshiner is qualified to preach
the gospel. The cause is evident
to even a casual observer. The
modern business college requires
no preparatory education as a
requisite for admission, and
worse still, practically none for
graduation. The larger portion
of tn cir pupils are those whose
general education is limited,
consequently a business educa
ton is top heavy. The true
theory of business edu cation
is that it is built upon a thorough,
broad and comprehensive educa
ton as a base. Every course in
these schools is. founded upon
the idea that the mind of the
student has already been thor
oughly developed in reason and
judgment, is able to comprehend
cause and effect, is able to know
the principle of an operation
without reciting the rule. More
over it presupposes that the
pupil is we'll grounded in the
principles and construction of
English language. Compare
lively few of the students who
enter business colleges are SO
prepared. They are rushed
through the courses by text book
rules and formulas and go out
to fail, because when conditions
arise which they have not been
taught, they have that brain
development that enables them
Ito solve the difficulty alone.
The country is being flooded
with stenographers. The pro-
fessional and commercial world
must need have them. But how
few know the principles Of Ian
guage sufficiently to construct
even from dictated notes. a
proper English sentence? They
may have a smattering of what
is called commercial grammar
but that lis about as useful as
the English alphabet to a new
@ly arrived Italian. What would
be better for the colleges, the
students and the public, is a
strong preparatory education
upon which the commercial one
could be built. The BOYS and

Briefly, the interior formicary was

Roman catacombs. and connected at
many points by tubular galleries lead

caves were used as nurseries for eggs,
larvae and antlings; som6 were occu-

males, and by the fertile queens. But
many were granaries. Nearing the top
were unhusked seeds, such as the
ants had been seen gathering. Farther
down were storerooms of naked seeds,
and these were identified as ant-rice,
