that will give a fair deal. The people

they seem to vie with N another in

My Dear Father:-As L have a little

letter, although l haven't much news
to give you. We are having fine wealth
er here now and it is such a relief
from what we had before. l had a
chum who was cut to pieces the other
day in Leyte. He went out with 100
men and about 300 outlaws jumped out
on him and cut him to pieces with
bolos, besides killing about thirteen
OF his men. You know 1 was ordered
to take the company that he had, but
my orders were changed at the last
moment and so l escaped the awful
fate that he had. l am assigned to
the fourth company at Negros, but 1

Expects to Be Transferred.

1t is estimated that there are about
1,5OO outlaws in Leyte and they have
a force Of about 1,2OO regulars over
there trying to corner them and wipe
them out of existence. They have been
numbering and p%lundering in a way
that would make a man wish to wipe
all Filipinos off the earth.
Colonel Taylor comes back tomorrow
from a trip down in Leyte, and then l
guess that it won't be long before l
go to Negros, where my company is
stationed.

DEEPHAVEN TROLLEY
CASE up TO JUDGE

John Lind, attorney for the village
of Deephaven in the injunction pro-
ceedings to restrain the Minneapolis &
st. Paul Suburban Railroad company
from operating cars in the village,
brought the case to a close today in a
final argument before Judge Fred ".
Brown. Mr.. Lind reviewed the state
,ments made by w. j. Held, manager
OF the streetcar company, and laid spe-
clal emphasis on the fact that Mr.. Held
had admitted that the cars were not
operated thru the winter on the Deep
haven line because there was no profit
Lind asserted that if the Suburban
railroad company was common carrier
Of freight and passengers, as is alleged,
1t should operate under the railway
laws Of the state, and that the stepping
Of cars in the winter would not be per-
misslble. AS assignee of the charter
ofsthe Milwaukee road he asserted that
the street railway company should per-
form the functions Of a commercial
railroad, and one of these; functions
was the operation of cars turnout the
year and the common carrying Of
freight as well as passengers.
In reply to the argument of the
street railway company's attorneys that
the suburban lines performed the func-
lions of railroads and were railroads,
altho electricity was the motive power
employed in the operation of the cars,
Mr.. Lind asserted that the matter Of
motive power had little to do with the
case. E s
VI The case was submitted at noon to-
day and after reviewing the evidence
a decision will be handed down by
Judge Fred v. Brown.

OLSEN URGES -FOUR
EDUCATIONAL Ia VS.
SUPERINTENDENT SAYS STATE rs
81. HAMPERED.
Legislature Will Be Asked to Pass
Laws Providing for Minimum Salary
County Boards Of Education, State
Rural School Inspection, and Remov-
4 ing Teachers Time Limit.

J. W. Olsen, superintendent Of pub
lie instruction, is anxious for the com
ing legislature to pass four new laws
relative to the educational interests Of
the state.
y First, there should be a. teachers
minimum salary law said Mr.. Olsen
today. Such a law is recommended
by the committee of the Minnesota
Educational association which, after a.
special and thoro investigation, ascer-
tanned that Minnesota teachers average
less in remuneration for work than is
paid to the cheapest kind Of common
laborers. There are such laws now in
existence in Pennsylvania, Ohio, In
diana, and, North Dakota. Such a law
for Minnesota should be drawn with
much care: L would suggest that the
present laws in other states on the sub
Ject be examined and Minnesota law
drdaftels from the best things to be ex-
tracted from !, the statutes Of other
statese. The idea Of such a law, Of
course, is, that teachers NAV not be I'M
derpaid. Yet at the same time. the
minimum 4 salary should not be made SO
nigh as to be hardship on the poorer
schsool districts of the state.
Second, should like to see a law
enacted to provide that the plan Of Sc
Letting and licensing city superintend-
ents in the larger cities Of the state, be
adapted to the needs Of rural school
supervision. There should be county
boards. of education, elected at annual
school meetings by the voters. when
partisan politics are not an issue. The
board should be so made up that not
all its members would retire from Office
at the same time. Such a board should
have charge of the educational inter
ests Of the country, and should name
country superintendent Of schools in
the same way that city superintendent
are named by city school boards.
Third, there should be law pro.
viding for a state inspector Of rural
schools. There are now state inspect
ors for high schools and graded schools.
For the same work, and for the same
good and sufficient reasons, there
+ should 81 tl bea state inspector Of rural
schools. n
Fourth, there should be power
given by law to boards Of education to
elect teachers who have proven their
efficiency and worth, for periods ex-
teeeding the present one-year limit.
There is nothing the schools as a whole
suffer SO much from today as the in
stability of tenure Of teachers. -
