ASKS CHANGES In SCHOOL LAW.
Supt. Riggs Declares Schools Should Occupy
Distinct Field and Not Be Used as
Preparatory Schools.

That high schools should occupy a
distinct field and should not be used
by the colleges and universities as
mere preparatory schools, and that to
put them in their rightful position
there should be state aid and state
supervision, are some of the radical
recommendations made in the report
of State Superintendent John F.
Riggs to the Legislature. The report
carefully considers the school question
and makes many radical recommends
tions. Among others are:
That levy of half mill should be
made for the support of the common
schools.
That the interest on school funds
should be distributed according to the
average attendance of pupils, the
number taught and the length of
school year rather than on the basis of
number of persons between the ages
of and 81.
That the Office of school treasurer
should be abolished.
That commission should be APP.

year more than one thousand high
school graduates enter directly upon
the work of teaching. A few of
them subsequently, go to the normal
school or to college, but their first
term or first year is taught before
they have received any training
above that of high school grade.
1t is entirely feasible for the state
to commission strong high schools in
all parts of the state TO offer year S
course in advance of the regular
work of such school and for the
benefit of prospective teachers. The
value of an advanced teachers course
in our best high schools will be APP
parent when it is remembered that
thousands of teachers in Iowa have no
scholastic training above that received
in the public school of the home dis.

is done by the various colleges under
the leadership of the state univer-
sity. The work rendered by the
university and the colleges in this
particular has been of great value,
but it has called particular attention
at all times TO the high school as a
fitting for college, whereas perhaps
not more than twenty-five per cent
of high school students ever enter
higher institutions of learning The
high school, while having a close
relation to the college, does not exist
for the college.
1t is an institution occupying a
distinct field and with ideals of it's
own. 1t should, therefore, be under
supervision free from any connection
with the college. yet friendly to the
college, but state supervision of high
schools, while desirable, would be of
small value without ample power
given the supervising authority to
define standards and enforce adj
herence thereto. By judicious sys-
TEN of state aid to high schools this
could be done in way to avoid all
friction and to leave every district
the fullest freedom. The standard
would be established by state au-
thority. Those schools and those
only measuring up to the standard
would receive aid. In this way a
very strong incentive would be offered
every corporation capable of support
ing high school to bring it's school
to the required standard
This would also afford an effective
means of providing better training for
thousands of country teachers. Every

pointed by the legislature to revise
all the school laws of the state.
That there should be state aid and
state supervision of high schools.
| That directors should have com
pensation for attending the annual
meeting.
The question of the position of the
| high schools of the state has been
one over which the colleges and uni
versities of the state have warred and
there has been open division between
the state university on the one side
and the other leading schools on the
other. Prof. Riggs takes a radical
stand for state supervision. He says
There will be found in our last
biennial report an exhaustive exposi-
tion of the courses of study offered
in Iowa high schools. A comparison
of these courses will convince anyone
of the utter lack of anything APP

or months it is studied OF the year of
the course in which it is given. In
deed subject may hold a prominent
place in one course and be omitted
entirely from another, the two schools
being of the same size and the two
courses supposed to be of the same
class.
There is to be sure degree of
uniformity in the college preparatory
or Latin courses offered in about
one third of the high schools of the
state, these being known as accredit-
ed schools.

LAYER of the First Atlantic Cable.

The death is reported of Cap
tain Henry Augustus Moriarity:
one of the principals of the laying
of the first Atlantic cable. The
captain was born in 1915 and en-
ared the navy in his early youth.
He was prominent IN the Syrian
naval operations of 1910 and was
master of a ship during the Rus
sian war. But it was his work as
master of the cable-laying ships
which obtained most recognition
for Capt. Moriarity, He COM
manded H. M. S. Agammnon,
which, with the I. S. frigate Nj
agara, laid the Atlantic cable in
1857, and spliced it in mid-ocean
It was a tremendous effort for a
little result. Only a few mes
sages were transmitted when the
cable retired from business.
Though in his 92nd year Captain
Moriariaty was quite active until
a few days before his DEATH

Record Size Appendix.

What is said to be the largest
vermiform appendix ever taken
from a human being, was taken
yesterday from the body of Miss
Mary Kilshore, at the Norwegian
hospital. It was six inches in
length, one inch in diameter at
n end an three-fourths of an
inch at the other. Miss Kill
shore was stricken a week ago and
since then has suffered great pain.
DR.. Edward Day Ferris her
physician, advised her removal to
the hospital. DR.. Ferris was as
sisted by members Of the hospl-
tai faculty in performing the
operation. Difficulty in get
ting at the appendix was en-
countered because Gifts s size,
and when DR.. Ferris realized the
extraordinary proportions of the
organ he was astonished. The pa
tient has excellent hopes of re-
eovery.-New York Herald.

WAGES IN SAN FRANCISCO.
High Wages Being Paid There for all Kinds
of Skilled Labor.

II. S. Duval, soliciting freight
agent of the Southern, is in re-
ceipt of a circular from the A.
T. and S. f. Railroad, which
shows what a demand there IS for
labor in San Francisco. Wages
are enormous and laborers are
pouring into the Golden Gate
City by the thousands. The de-
mand is SO much greater than the
supply that the railroad com.
panies Ire scattering these circu-
lars broadcast over the country,
hoping thereby to induce others
to 60 to the relief of the stricken
city. Appended to the paper is
the call of the State labor COM
missioner, W. V. Stafford, for
more men in the building trades.
Steady employment is guaran-
teed all through the winter sea-
son, when cold weather has prac-
tically discontinued building ope-
rations in the east.
The schedule Of wages on the
basis of an eight-hour day will be
of interest to many in Charlotte.
It follows: Brick "a yers, ST;
fathers, $6; plumbers, Sc; plas
t%erers, So; cement workers., SIS;
carpenters, 81 to 81 stone cutters,
81. rs; fresco painters, So; black
smiths, 81; hod-carriers, 81; tin
ners, "a horse-shoers, 81; sheet
metal workers, 81; painters, 81;
sign-writers, 81; stationary en-
gineers, 81, etc., etc.
The circular adds that the a
and railway companies are call
ing Tor laborers, the supply be.
ing insignificant as compared
with the demand. The fruit
growers need help to harvest their
big c1ops.-Charlotts Observer.

Hot Shots.

An honest mistake is better
than a dishonest success.
A man without ''character" can
never be "civilized."
There's lots of ''plous looking
faces" owned by hypocrites.
We'd rather have an honest
enemy than a h%ypocritical friend.
There's a darn sight Of differ.
ence between being "buzzy and
being "busy."
A ''two-faced" man can never
look an honest man squarely in
the eye.
A fellow with only "book
learning' is the most useless
''cuss" on earth.
If we had more men with
"push'' and fewer with "pulls,''
this country wouldn't have 80
many rogues.
"Ignorance' is tickled to death
when permitted to loaf around
with some fellow whom the world
calls ''wlse."
Cut the word "love' out of the
English language, and you have
no life line" to toss a friend in
distress.
The ''se!f-made man is all right,
but the fellow who is "made
over" by a ''good wife" has got
him skinned a mile:
A fellow can't expect to "act
right unless he thinks right"

The Telephone Question.

None can appreciate the ad-
vantage to town and community
that is afforded by the telephone
systems that are now in almost
universal use in the state, (outside
of Crested Butte) excepting those
who have been accustomed to the
use of one. There is not a bust
ness man here, miner, rancher or
private citizen who would not
avail himself of a telephone eX-
change, to greater or less extent,
if we had such a system. The
benefits to be derived would be far
greater in winter than during the
summer, especially when such
storms as the recent one, are on.
The business during summer
months would likely be double
that OF winter but the satisfaction
of being able to talk to the outside
world while showed in here, and to
know that everybody is safe
within this entire section, would
be inestimable. Let US get our
heads and purses together and
build line to connect with our
Gunnison, Paonia, Aspen and
Crys'al neighbors, who are all
talking with each other and the
outside world as we'll.
Now is the time to plan and
raise means for the construction
of the line. There would be suf-
ficient business from the start to
support and maintain a line and
pay ten per cent on the invest
ment. Our Pitkin friends are do
ing this in a town of less than
three hundred inhabitants, with
eighty telephones installed. Pao-
MIA has two systems with over
four hundred phones in use and
still extending.-Elk Mt. Pilot.

DISSATISFIED WITH LIFE.
Beautiful and Apparently Happy
Young Woman Makes the
Dreaded Step IN the Dark.

One of those suicides that cause
deepest regret occurred in Den
yer Thursday. Miss Jessie R.
Hess, beautiful young woman
whose life had been a model of
purity and innocence, cut her
throat and died practically in
stantly. She had been a nature
student, deeply in love with flow
ers. Around her life were no ap-
parent distressful conditions that
usually lead to self-destruction.
She was peculiar only in the fact
that she was SO gentle and pure
of heart. She was a most pro-
nounced vegetarian in habit,
avoiding anything that must be
killed to be eaten. She seems to
have held the belief that her
death would result in her passing
into a flower, her chief desire
having been that she might trans
migrate into a rose. She was of
deeply religious character. The
desire to get out of the world, to
change ones identity from the ex-
isting to that which is presumed
seems to know no class. The
rich and poor, those who seem to
have every wish and those who
appear to possess no joys, the
deeply religious and those who
have no faith in a hereafter, those
who are pure of heart and those
stepped in sin, all in about the
same degree seek the dreamless
sleep. Speculation on the causes
that lead men and women to take
their own lives is about the most
abstruse question that engages
the minds of men. Some COVER
nors have lately called great coun-
cils to determine the cause of
suicides, with a view of decreas-
ing the number, and this may be
accomplished by removing some
of the causes but the suicide like
the poor will always be with US.

ments of public business, that
failure is caused by the interfer
ence of corruption or incom
potency that has its source and
foundation in the system of gov
ernment by private corporations.
AT the present time in Chicago
the inability of the city council
to put through the scheme for
the public ownership of the street
railways is being pointed out as
an example of the folly of munich
pal ownership, when as a matter
of fact. the failure of the council
to do its duty to the people is the
direct result of corporation in
fiuence and control.
No person that is familiar with
the broad lines along which the
worlds progress is now being
conducted can fail to recognize
the strong tendency toward
municipal ownership. and the
person that is opposing this re-
form either shuts his eyes will
fully to facts that cannot be de-
MED, or else is guided rather by
his personal interests than by a
desire to further the public well
fare.

and operation is notorious fact
When a franchise tor a public
utility is obtained, the usual GUS
tom is to issue bonds which rep
resent not only the actual cost OF
material and labor involved in
construction, but also an extrava-
giant profit. which is divided
among the persons that actually
invest their capital and the other
persons that have been success
full in promoting the corporation.
And in the end the public has to
pay not only the interest upon
these excessive bond issues, but
also the principal of the bonded
Indebtedness.
Further than that it is a we'll
known fact that the public utility
corporations are the source of
much OF the corruption in public
government. 1t is the money OF
these corporations that supplies
the working capital of the politi-
cal gangs with which our great
cities are infested. 1t is the
money of these corporations that
makes up the funds with which
elections are stolen and with
which public legislative and ex-
ecutive and judicial officials are
bribed. And in the end all these
corruption funds are repaid with
liberal addition of profit to the
public utility corporations.
1t is claimed by those persons
that oppose the municipal owner
ship and operation of public
utilities that the scale of wages
under public ownership is higher
than it is under corporation
ownership. That is probably true,
but the additional cost of wages
is small amount as compared
with the immense sums that are
taken out of the peoples pockets
by the corporations for various
purposes that have no direct
bearing upon the quality or the
