Senators VINO Rise EARLY.

People who have an idea that sena.

should observe some of them going to
the capitol early in the morning. A

North Dakota, went into the building

mental employees were at their desks
at the time he began looking over his
correspondence.
Senator Enute Nelson, Of Mime
sofa, is probably one of the earliest
riscrs, as he IS one Of the earliest men
in the senate to get down to work. 1t
Is not unusual for him TO be at his
committee room before eight o'clock,
and sometimes he reaches the capitol
before the elevators begin running.
Some of the members Of the supreme
court of the United states are early
workers. More than ono Of them finds
that his thinking machine when deal

works more readily in the early dawn
and rises in order to get in the best
work at that hour,

Too Much Crowding.

EDITOR REPUBLICAN,: For some
time ! have been reading with much
interest articles appearing under
the heading Of "The battle-ground OF
Modern Thought" in one OF my papers
and the spirit" moves me to take up
the cudgel and give few whacks at
our present system Of crowding pupils
ahead in our graded schools. Perhaps
| will bring down a rain Of pitch
forks" on my head, but If so let them
come.
| have often, very often, remarked,
that the rural schools were more
thorough in their methods OF teaching
than the town schools, that is there is
not so much machine work" in the
rural schools
| have a letter before me, just re.
ceived, from a lady who for years was
a successful teacher in rural schools
and who has taught many years in
graded schools She says in speaking
Of this crowding pupils ahead to make
their grades, that she sometimes won
ders If the graded schools are not 4
detriment rather than an advantage,
as the pupils are crowded ahead to the
higher branches before they have
mastered the fundamental branches.
Reading is laid aside before the public
can take up newspaper and read an
article intelligently, not knowing how
to pronounce many Of the words.
Geography is put away as a thing
not worth spending time upon when
the pupil knows but very little about
his own country, and perhaps less Of
others. | know high school pupils
now that don't know how to bound
the country they live in, Gram
mar, too, is laid aside finished, " and
in common conversation the pupil will
say he "brung" where he should have
said brought, and IL seen" when he
should say saw. In fact, know a
man who was once principal in a
graded school for several terms, who
ia his conversation will murder our
little English word yes, and say
yeah"
Then the spelling book is laid on the
shelf along with the rest, aud the
pupil takes up rhetoric aud latin.
Arithmetic is finished" before the
pupil has made any real practical use
Of 1t and perhaps could not make out
a bill of lumber for pig pen or dog
house
What | am contending for Is, not so
much rushing ahead to make certain
grades, as it is to teach practical les.
sons, 50 that when pupils get through
W tn school, they will be able to do
business in business like way.
Not long ago there was an article in
a newspaper that came TO my notice,
wherein a county superintendent said
it was astonishing how many written
applications he received from asplrants
for schools that were abominabIe both
as 20 grammar and photography. And
these wouldbe teachers go out into
the country to teach branches they
are so deficient in.
In the present system of crowding
children through grades and grinding
them out In few years finished
too much machine work.

Speakers Best Critic.

For a good many years Speaker
Cannon has had critics galore. but
the one person on whose judgment
he ever depended implicitly was his
late wife. Mrs. Cannon was kindly
but severe in her criticism Many a
time after a speech In the house
Uncle Joe, disregarding all other opin.
ion, went home to hear what she
had to say. Sometimes IL was unstint-
ed praise and congratulation, but
again there were times when Mrs.
Cannon would begin: We'll, Joe,
that was very good, but not nearly
as good as you are capable of doing.
If you had given that one point a
little more study aud investigation
you would not have floundered about
SO in that last colloquy you had" or,
zoe, you dragged mlserably in your
speech. That last story you told was
so drawn that you quite lost the
point you were trying to make. h'hile
knew what you were driving at, |
believe ! was in a hopeless mlnC,it

ALL THE FACTS.

ADJ of the facts about the Agri-
cultural College situation" would in
clude a recital of how that capable
scholar, Pres. Sanborn, was removed
from the institution on the hill, ALL
the facts would include the detail Ct
how local and state democracy de-
manded Sanborn's head, and got IT,
ALL the facts would include the
story of democratic meetings held in
this city preliminary to accomplish
ing the removal of Sanborn--but the
democratic organ is not giving ALL
the facts-lt IS giving SOME Of the
facts about the Agricultural College
situation
ALL the facts about the situation
would include recital OF the fact
that democracy has not at any time
shown friendinesS to the college.
From the time they succeeded in
ousting its first president down to
AMI including the last legislature, dc.
mocraCy has been recalcItrant. In the
fight two years ago when all things
hinged on vote or two, only one dem
ocrat, the lone Senator from Cache,
was with the college, Al the recent
legislature when votes were needed,
only one lone democrat out of six
voted for the college OF the big dem
Ocrats in the state, those who make
the policies Of the party, those in fav-
rof the college failed to put in an
appearance, and many against the
colleCe were instant in and out Of
season 10 accomplish its destruction.
But the cemocratic organ is not CIV
ing ALL the facts-it is giving SOME
oftho facts,
If the Journal really cared TO give
ALL the facts, it would give the
"Smoot machine" credit for prevent
ing consolidation two years ago, but
the Journal doesn't like one OF its
Apostles According to the democra-
tic organ, Mr.. Smoot is "disrupu-
table politician and boss" with foul
and "mucky shrine" The democra-
tic organ might very reasonably give
Congressman Howell and other mem
bers OF the "Smoot machine" credit
for excellent work in behalf OF the
College at the recent session of the
legislature-but the democratic organ
doesn't care TO give ALL of the facts
SOME of the facts suits it's purpose
better
But during all this harangue VI the
democratic organ, the public should
not forget that the college is still a
separate institution and is located or
the hill. We believe IL will remain
there If such democrats as Richard
Young, who said "we'll fight you L
the death" do not accomplish its de
struction.
