BUSY ROUND CITY HALL.
Merry War Between Harrison and
Reed Factions.

While G. r. Davis is quietly work
ing among his friends, and Col. ]. e.
Potter, is sounding the loud timbrel,
the merriest war among Democratic
city factions in years is being waged
between the forces of City Attorney
Tom Harrison and Col. Charles Reed.
Harrison, 1t is claimed. is making
his fight, with the removal of Chief
of Police Collins, as his main issue,
while the administration quite natu-
rally is making a campaign to head
off Mr.. Harrison. The claim is made
at the city nall that the present
board of police and fire commissions
ers will hold for three years in spite
of everything Mayor Tom can do.
However, he seems to have consider
ed this suggestion himself, and
smiles knowingly, as if something up
mis- sleeve tickles him when the idea
is mentioned. Mayor Yeiser's Office
has taken on its prediction air OF

GIVE HIM A CHANCE.

Indications point to the fact that
when the new superintendent of city
schools assumes mis- Office next fall he
will find nothing but executive duties
of routine nature to perform. With
out considering his wishes or waiting
for him to study local conditions and
devise such a system to suit the
needs Of the city. as mis- 20 years ex-
perience in the work should enable
him, the school board is considering
a scheme to lessen the hours of
work, a change in the High school
principalship and the distribution of
grades. while they are giving heed
to popular Glamour on the subject.
One of the faults of this school board
mas been a too attentive ear to sounds
political. Warning of its character
was given, when the candidates an
nounced themselves as running on a
platform pledging them to give jobs
TO Paducah people.
We know nothing of the capabili-
ties Of Professor Carnagey, but we
protest, he is entitled to absolute
freedom in the conduct of the
schools, so far as lies in the province
of a superintendent. We do not set
ourselves up as competent to judge,
better than a superintendent of 20
years experience, whether longer or
shorter hours are needed; neither do
We think that popular Glamour will
suffice in the matter. All questions of
administration and discipline should
be left to the superintendent, who
necessarily would have to confide in
the school board to secure its sane
ton.
Mapping out a school system does
not fall within the expert knowledge
of men, who run saloons, groceries,
drug stores, newspapers OF steam
boats, or who work on houses, in
factories OF in the streets. That ex-
pert knowledge belongs to school
men, and debating the policy of a
new superintendent and dealing with
teachers and principals over mis- head
will mark his administration less a
success than conditions warrant from
the start. Give the new superlntend-
ent a fair chance to make good

Madison, Wis, March 6.-In &C
cordance with joint resolution
adopted last week, Secretary of State
Frear last night sent a communica-
ton to the Legislature giving the
names and salaries of state employees
on two pay rolls. The list contains
the names of a score of professors
and other persons drawing pay Cor
work in the state university and in
different departments in the state
capitol. The revelations in most in
stances created considerable surprise.
and the Legislature will doubtless en-
act a law prohibiting state employees
from being on two pay rolls.

RoosEvELT's SUCCESSOR.

Straw votes recently taken among
the Republican members of the leg
islatures of Nebraska and South Da-
kota, to test their preference for the
next presidential nomination of their
party, snow an almost unanimous
sentiment for Roosevelt, if he will
accept From Kansas and other
states It Is reported that a delega-
ton in favor of Roosevelt will be
sent to the convention, whether he
likes It or not and there is talk to
the same effect in other western
states.
If, however, Mr.. Roosevelt will
not accept another nomination-and
he has let it be known with COM
plete positiveness that he thinks the
best service he can render the coun-
try for the four years following
March 4, 1909. is not to be presi-
dent-toward whom of the other Re-
publican leaders is sentiment tend
ing? To test this question additional
straw votes, excluding Roosevelt, were
taken in both the Nebraska and the
South Dakota legislatures. The re-
suit showed That Taft had as much
support as all the others combined
In Nebraska Taft had 3S votes. His
nearest competitors were Root, Bev-

Cannon, La Toilette, Cummins, Dol.

votes, with La Toilette II, Hughes
10, and Root, Shaw, Fairbanks, Dol
liver and Moody together "a. For
both legislatures the total was Taft.
81; all others "a.
These votes are among the indica-
tons that the progressive element of
the party, with Roosevelt out of the
running, is centering on Taft as the
best exponent of his policies and the
most capable man for the chief mag
istracy. II Is equally certain that tne
strength of the conservative and re-
dictionary elements in the Republi-
can parties is centering on Fairbanks.
Between Fairbanks and Taft the next
