the ancient mode of engaging teachers
for the single term.
These two obstacles removed, the
salary question would gradually regu-
late itself. and the profession of the
teacher would soon take the place to
which it is entitled, on an even Level
with all the other professions.
But no legislature and no state SUI
p~erintendent can bring about the
change. Both can help. The real work

1t is a great mistake to um as
do so many who get their instruction
from defenders Of monarchial inst1tu-
tons, that a republic is the form OF
government which only the most adj
vanced people may hope to attain.
Republicanism is elastic and adaptive.
The kind of republic for which the
Filipinos are best fitted may be that
Of Mexico or Venezuela or the Navajo
Indians. Either would mean improve
ment on c%olontalism. The thing to do
is to adopt a form of government to
them, instead Of trying to adopt them
to a form Of government.

MULTIPLYING LAW.
Manson .JournaD

(M1lSGtl JouiIidlp
In iowa we have laws against usury,
excessive speed OF autos. selling liquor,
ashing with seine, hunting game birds
out of season. II Many others which
are not found in all the other states
To violate these laws is a crime. pun
ishable by a fine or imprisonment or by
both. 1t is a safe bet that a large
per cent of the grown population OF
the county have been guilty of trans
crossing some one of these laws; and
what is more, each transgressor viii
Justify his own act while condemning
that Of all the others. The mar with
money to loan, and who violates the
interest laws. looks upon the liquor
seller as u low crirninal, but over
looks his own shortcomings, while
the man with the alto will think he
has turned a neat trick If he can
violate the speed law and not get
caught and the nan who enjoys TAX
ing a few birds or fish out Of season
has no pricking OF his conscience If he
can turn the trick without paying
the penalty. Thus 1t goes, each man
intent upon multiplying the law that is In
his way and condemning those h do
the same, only by some other law.
In many places a man cannot
be elected to an office If it is known
that he stands for the enforcement of
some unpopular measure. Just now the
auto is bringing out a new crop of law
breakers: these men go nut on the ROAD
deliberately to break the law and make
their brags that they have the money
with them to pay their fines These
men would not wish to be classed with
the liquor seller who violates the law.
yet their act Is on the same footing
In law. This may be a harsh state
ment. yet 1t is the truth.

Digging for kauri gum is profitable,
for the gum is used in the manufac-
