BRYAN DoDGEs QUIZ
Doesn't Yet Say Whether He Has Ac-
 cepted Gompers' Program.

St. Albans, w. Va, Oct. 22-William J Bryan in brief speech here today made reference to the letter of Presi- dent Roosevelt published today in which the president criticized the posi- ton of MT Bryan and Mir Gpmpers on the labor question. The democratic candidate was explaining the things which he said the republican platform did not promlss to do and, touching on the labor question, he said:
 "The republican platform does not promise a reconciliation of labor and capital In fact they now recognize that their antagonistic position on la bor organizations has lost them the labor vote and they recognize that so fully that they have entered upon the denunciatlon of the man who stands at the head of the labor organizations and are trying to show that he does not represent the men who elected him to office and who have been endorsing the position that he has taken in this cam paien.'

 The proposition of purchasing the Water street dock property, which has been suggested and talked about for some time came up at the meeting last night It seemed quite a general opinion that 1t would he a good idea for the city to purchase it. but the price suggested, $S5,O00, was consider ed rather high, Mir.

LAST ACT CLEARS JAP PROBLEM
TOXIC Government Expects Brighter
Auspices for the New Year.


Auspices for the New Year.
Toxic, jan 1.-The dispatch of the
memorandum on the emigration ques-
ton by the foreign office to the Amer
team embassy was the last official act
Of the japanese government in the
year 1907 This is considered to be
significant of desire Of the govern
ment to begin the year 1908 under bet
ter auspices. In fact this has been ad-
mitted by an official of the Japanese
government to the Associated Press. he
said:
we have every reason to believe
that the details of our administration
and control of the emigration ques-
ton will be satisfactory to the Amer
lean government
'President Roosevelt wanted Japan
to act promptly, and our memorandum
Is the result of much careful work and
investigation.
while doubtless some changes VIII
be made before the matter is finally
disposed OF. we are Of the opinion that
the last official act of 1907 will make
the dawn of 1908 brighter in both
countries
The government iate last evening
handed to Ambassador O'Brien MEM
orandum containing reply to the
suggestions offered by the United
States government several weeks ago.
whereby the American government
sought a friendly way to assist Japan
in perfecting plans for the future re-
striction OF emigration. thus effective
ly avoiding possibility of friction
over the qquestion.
While the contents of the memoran-
dun are carefully guarded both at the
japanese foreign office and American
embassy. there is reason to believe that
the memorandum Is couched in the
most friendly terms and that while II
accepts some of the American sugges-
lions II declines others as Incompatible
With the dignity Of japan and outlines
plans for further restriction OF emf
grafton to America.
The memorandum has been capieo
to Washington, from which 1T Is pos
sible counter suggestion will be

STATE AID ENDORSED.
Iowa Teacshers Adopt Councils High
School Plan.

Des Moines, Jan. 2.-Rather than
have the state provide agricultural
high schools, as is now proposed, the
executive council of the state teachers
association will ask that all h1gh
schools of second and third class pc
given state aid with power to add an
agricultural department if 1t Is de-
sired.
resolution to this effect was SUB
mitted yesterday morning to the open
meeting of the executive council at the
Plymouth Congregational church ny
Superintendent c. McCracken and was
unanimously indorsed. The resolution
is important at this time and reads:
Deeming that it is important to Sc
cure state aid for the high schools OF
Iowa. be it
"Resolved, That this council believes
that the money proposed for agricui-
rural high schools could be better eN-
nended if devoted to use of many nigh
schools already established all over
the state Any community deserving
q course of agriculture could then use
its state aid in that direction within
the reach Of all rather than few
whose finances and circumstances
make it possible to attend the pro-
posed agricultural schools which will
necessarily remove them from their
| homes"
The executive council asks for state
board of control for high schools to
| conform with other state boards OF
| control It does not fix the number
to be placed on that board by the
governor, but does stipulate in part
what the duties of the board shall be
This board shall have supervision over
the high schools and give $500 or less
to the schools which could be bene-
!. fitted, providing that no tuition was
received from rural students The
! high school must do four years WorF
| and prepare students to enter some
| college course. Teachers must have
collegiate education and no less thar
three teachers shall be employed. To
meet the expenses of the board ant

to be made. This law is asked not t

and it's principal, II. s. Whitley.
The business Of the association was
soon accomplished, and then the MEM
bers settled themselves back for a fight
which they seemed to want and which
they had.
The place of holding the state meet
was not decided but the invitation
which was extended by the Des Moines
high schools to have the next meet in
Des Moines was not allowed to come TO
vote. the supporters of the Iowa City

ISOLATION. NJ NJ. Beddal and r. Is.
Crone were elected by the association
to fill the places to which they had
formerly been appointed. minor
change was made in the rules of the
association, and then came the fight
At first it seemed as tho there would
be no fight. Il. b. Crone, the chalr-
man of the association. set his foot
down hard on the proposition made by
Superintendent Hagler of Ida Grove,
to set the matter as he saw 1t before
the association. 1T took an appeal from
the decision of the chair and mo-
ton to allow Mr.. Hagler to present
the matter before he could get the
floor The motion to permit him to
speak was carried amid great APP
plause.
And then started the trouble which
bids fair to separate the state high
school association into two parts.
There are many ruffled feathers and
injured persons, and it will take
long time for the association to re-
cover from the blow which 1t received
at its own hands yesterday afternoon.
There are many who are saving that
the state high school association IS a
thing of the past.

to serve without compensation but the
necessary expenses of the board shail

of state officers.
The executive council yesterday NOR
ming Endorsed the present certlncate
law and advised that the examination
law be adhered to in principle Win
such amendments and details perfect
ed as the need is shown by the edu-
cational commission
The council also believes that the
plan of religious instruction should re-
ceive careful consideration. 1t world
ask that the Iowa schools do more
to train and develop the moral ana
religious nature of the pupil The rec
concentrations of the committee on
this matter were Endorsed but no final
action taken.
In the report of the committee on
comparison of the school systems OF
Canada and Iowa the committee gave
Ontario as the more nearly perfect
system OF education and based It's
recommendation upon its investiga-
tons.
