NO CIRCLE WANTED.

| next legislature if the wishes of the
! great majority were really known.
man never voted simpler ballot nor
one which responded more quickly to
| what he wanted to do with his vote.
| It is needless to say that the absence OF
| the circle this year came contempo-
| raoeous with a scratching Of ballots on
| the part of several thousand voters
which was not at all to the liking OF
the Times Republican, but the fact re-
mains that these men could have voted
their ticket straight a good deal easier
than to have scratched it as they did,
and the deduction must follow that the
scratched ballot was voted just as they
wanted it voted, which is the highest
mission of any ballot in the hands OF a
self governing people.
When we stop to ask ourselves what
an election is for we realize that it Is
merely the form we have of giving ex-
preston to the will Of the voters in
the selection of their officials. The
ballot which will record the exact wish
of each voter with the greatest accu :
racy is the ideal ballot to use. The
honest opinion of a free voter is always
a greater safeguard to good govern
ment than the halter or lead strings
designed solely for party regularity.
/ If there is anything in manhood suf-
! frage, the man to an kind of ballot
| is the thing.
It is true that mechanically it will be
easier to make one cross in a circle to
vote an entire ticket than to make
forty crosses in front of the names of
forty candidates, but the vote of the
man who has not sufficient intelligence
to mark his whole ticket if lost, will
never be missed, and the votes of those
too feeble for the whole process are
too few to be considered. All combined
fade to the vanishing point when COM
pared to the disciplinary effect upon
the party which makes nominations of
the unhaltered ballot in the hands of
men who know their own minds The
statewide primary must come, and the
ballot without circle is of the same
kind Let it alone 1t comes nearest
to real manhood suffrage as it is.

Canada's rowing independence has
practically c he political bond be-
tween herself and the mother country
Now, what is the future India? In the
orient is that vast empire OF Eng
land's-an empire which we in the
western world know only thru Kip
,jng's short stories. Yet those myri-
ads Of dark men are not all punkah-
coolies nor savage hill tribes. In the
number of the North America Review
Sir Henry Cotton, an authority on In
dia, describes the new national spirit
that has arisen there under the slim
illus Of education and English insti-
tutions as well as thru the example
of Japan. In Sir Henry's opinion
English rule in it's present form can
not continue" He further says:
'"The germ of a national organiza-
ton on the basis of English education
has long existed, but it has sprung into
it's present vigor in very recent times
Its present development is due to
causes intended to produce a very dill
ferent effect. The Anglo-Indian agita-
ton. the protests which assert that
the only people who have any right
to India are the British the whole at
titude of Englishmen in regard to In
dian interests, the reactionary tenden-
cies of bureaucratic rule, have COM
hined TO advance Indian unity. Clamor
ia met nv clamor, and the very object
is attained which the Anglo-Indiar
agitators, if they were wise in their
generation would spare no labor to
prevent The people of India have not
been slow to follow the example set
them by Englishmen; they have
learned their strength, the power OF
combination, the force of numbers, and
there is now kindled in all the prov
inces of India national movement
which is destined to develop and in
crease. until it receive its fulfilment in
the systematic regeneration of the
whole country"

THE QuAcK DOCTOR EVIL.
LIT. Dodge ChronlcleI

I. DOuSG Alll OuIClCJ
The state supreme court decision in
the White case not only contained
small comfort for the quack doctors,
but 1T also contained warning for
those who encourage the existence of
this class of grafters. In addition to
those who patronize them the regular
physician is not wholly blameless and
the business managers Of news
papers have more or less responsibility
resting on their shoulders but the
latter would be materially lessened #
so-called professional ethics as applied
to advertising was; done away with.
The Chronicle has been exercising its
best efforts to accomplish such re-
suit locally and the business directory
appearing elsewhere in this issue dem
onstrates good results, as several regu-
lar practicing physicians have cards in
this direction. And why not? In this
day and age it is a we'll admitted fact
that those who want to succeed and
prosper must advertise, and the finan-
cial success of the quack doctor is en-
tirely due to his acceptance and apph-
cation of this thoroughly established
business rule.
Advertising is the sinew and muscle
that keeps the presses of this country
printing newspapers, and the men in
the business offices of publications are
the men charged with the responsible
ity of providing sufficiency of this
necessary power. The question of the
competency Of a man who advertises
to cure all the Ills that flesh is heir
to, is one that the business manager
as a rule does not take into consider

THE SCARCITY OF SCHOOL mA'AMs.

From every corner Of the state arises
a Macedonian cry for schoolma'ams.
Some counties are "shy'' thirty teach
ers for the rural schools, and in almost
every county there are vacant school
houses. Even In city schools the short
age is apparent, and In some Instances
the boards Of education are using the

There is an unconscious sarcasm in
the complaints regarding scarcity of
rural teachers. We are told that this
scarcity is the more astonishing be-
cause there has been an increase of So
a month paid to the women teachers
Of the state The average monthly
wages now paid IS about $50. This
includes the So raise. The school year
is from seven to nine months; seven
months is general in rural districts.
The higher salaries of all the women
teachers in graded and high schools, as
teachers and principals, figure in the
total whence this 500 average is drawn.
The wages of the average rural teacher
fall much closer to s29 than to $39 a
months Seven months at $50 pays the
munificent sum Of $21O gross income
for the school year, little over SIT
average for the calendar year. Sub

Well, it's touch Of winter. "A touch
of winter is like the hand of the law
on the shoulder. 1t leads to consider
alton of what one has been doing an
of what he will do under the clreun-
stances. The flesh is SO weak that a
slight pinch will cause cutlery. What
is the price of coal? Outrageous! But
with some the price of coal makes
slight difference. They board around.
There are more cases. Of freezing to
death in the, country than in the town;
and yet the very poor are in much the
larger proportion in the town. What
Is the price of bread? The question
is hardly, more relevant. Yet a case
of starving to death is not frequently
reported in the public prints. There
is no greater mystery than is some
where lodged in the means whereby
people live. There are rnany thousands
to take things as they come, including
the years seasons, and some way they
live and keep themselves in shoes.
What is suffering? 1t Is some kind Of
a case of rheumatism. 1t is something
out of the ordinary. There is suffer-
ing in the absence of drink, and there
a paltry 10 cents will relieve 1T in either
event. A dollar in emergency will re-
lieve a lot of pain. No one contends
that extreme poverty is desirable
state, and yet no estimate can be
made of the relief of suffering as the
result of poverty in the head. How
one would feel in the place of another
is not the equivalent Of a revelation
of the truth. 1t is a pity that there Is
so much of improvidence. Men will
work all day in the ditch and sleep
there at night; and in the morning
they will jolly one another over the
good time they had. but it is impos-
sible to deny them sympathy when

farm. His wages have risen from a

Some schoolteacher who had evil
IDENTIFY labored in the rural districts
called attention to the regularity with
which a farmer visits herd of hogs
or a drove of cattle left in charge of a
hired man, and the irregularity of his
visits to the school house where his
children are being prepared to face the
world The inference was that he
cared more for the hogs than for the
children. The inference was at once
that he drives by the school house on
his way to the feeding pens, and that
the wages of a good hired man are
paid far less grudgingly than the fair
salary OF competent and earnest
teacher.
The scarcity of teachers is logical.
The pay is shamefully disproportion-
ate to the requirements. No laborer Is
more worthy of her hire than the con-
scientious schoolma am, and none gets
less of it. We are neglecting the men
and women who are the pillars Of our
fabric of education. When private in
dividuals and corporations can hire the
best of our teachers away from their
profession at higher wages the public
is not paying enough When educated
women find office work and even do
nestle service more lucrative than
teaching, we may expect and certainly
deserve "a scarcity of schoolmaams."

to get the cash for the advertising.
This policy is the contribution of re-
sponsibility that rests on the shoulders
of the newspaper publisher for the eX-
istence of the quack doctors, and he
in turn shifts it on TO the regular
practicing physician, waom he blames
for it all because as rule he does not
advertise. OF course the practicing
physician can in turn claim the pat
rons of quack doctors are the ones at
fault, but in doing SO they also admit
that advertising pays, and when they
do that they admit that if they adver-

time be put out of business.
