Dear SIR
The election of a county superin-
tendent next April, since it closely
concerns the education of the future
citizens of the county, ought to de-
mand the serious consideration of the
voters, and their best judgment in
selecting the man best qualified for
the position.
In recent article by the present in
cument of the office, published in the
News-Herald, in which he attempts to
point out to the voters the best man
for the position the qualifications
mentioned as necessary are two, illegal
and real" These two qualifications
are undoubtedly important but since
to hold the Office and since they are
all real men it is obvious that we are
no nearer choice than before.
1t would seem that in a matter in
which man will be called upon to
superintend the work of teachers the
one who is to fill the position should
be educationally their superior. We're
anyone tO.select man to superintend
a number of carpenters he would pick
out the man who knew most about
carpentering and in teaching, the same
principle should be followed out.
Mr.. Francis Bray. of Cuba, is grad
uate of Platteville and of the Univer-
sity,and has had seven years of expert
ence in teaching, two years in the
common schools. one year in the grad
ed school, and four years in the high
schools. His education places him
position. He is qualified not only
''legally and really, but educationally
as we'll. S. e. SMALLEY.

The best way to build up a city
is for each and every man in it not
to strive to rend and tear down.
Whenever a man in the town is do
ing well do not try to tear him
down. All the residents of a town
are partners, not opponents. In all
likelihood, the more business done
by your rival the more you will do.
Every gentleman who treats his
customer honestly, courteOuslY and
fairly will get his share, and the
more business that can be secured
by united effort, the better it will
be for ALL When a town ceases to
grow it commences to die, and the
more the people try to kill off each
other in their business and good
name, the more rapidly will utter
ruin come to all. Stand together
for the advancement of every citi-
zen. If a man shows ability to
prosper do Lot pull him back with
jealousy or weigh him down with
cold indifference.

The Poor Old Democratic Party!

There she IS. Behold her and judge
for yourselves" Massachusetts is
still there, but what has become of the
Democratic party in that noble old
commonwealth? What is there left Of
ii to judge?
According to the official canvass of
the recent election just completed by
the Executive Council, nearly 5000
more votes were cast under the In
dependence League emblem than under
the Democratic emblem. Unless the
courts decide that the Democratic
organization is entitled to the votes
cast for Henry NJ. Whitney on other
tickets the Democracy iii MaSsa-

rights and privileges will pass to the
Independence League. 1t will have no
Judges Of election, no election inSpec-
tors. no part of the official machinery
of election. 1t will have to take its
place with the Prohibitionists and
Socialists as ii third party.
It is to this condition that Mr.
Bryan's friends and supporters have
reduced the Democratic party IN
