NUMBER OF OLD TEACHERS
LEAVE THE CITY SCHOOLS
THROUGH RESIGNATION.

The board of education met in adj
journed session last night at the Will
school, all members being present.
The committee on teachers recon-
mended the reelection of the present
force of grade teachers at not less
than their present. salaries. This was
voted for by all the members except
Mr.. VIII, who voted against Miss Bent
ley. This bars her from signing a
contract, as the law reads that where
one has brother-inllaw on the board
the vote must be unanimous ito make
a legal election.
Miss Dunning resigned her position,
as she is going to quit teaching and
her place was not filed. Miss Bar
tholomew and Miss Stevens were not
applicants for their preesnt positions,
and Miss Sara stayely was elected to
teach both music and drawing.
Miss Davis, a daughter of Supt.
Davis of the Indian school, was elect
ed to teach one of the eighth grades.
Misses Jones, Perrill and Harrison OF
the high school force did not desire a
reelection, and Rollie Petrie, Misses
Smith and Augustine were elected TIC
the high schoop positions. 8s
The question of salaries was left
over to the next meeting in May. The
board also purchased an Encyclopedia
Americana, to be paid for out of the
high school fund. The meeting then
adjourned.

 It seems that the little child, which had only learned to walk short time ago, had managed to make it's way out to the kitchen, and while standing near the stove stepped upon the protruding tail of the house cat, which was peacefully sleeping under the stove. The cat jumped up in rage and springing upon the child badly scratched it about the face with its sharp claws. While the injuries are painful they are not thought to be of serious nature.

 The artisans are also in this class. The men of the railroads, and other lines of similar business are included in this. The farmers in the country and the artisans in the cities produce the wealth of the world. They make the wealth of the nation and and fight the nations battles.

ment there were two leaders. Jefferson, on the one hand advo- cated the people ruling and Ham, ilton, on the other advocating taking the government from the people. Hamilton believed in electing president for life, the senate for life, and the appoint. ment of the governors of the various states by the Federal authorities, also tor life. Jeffer- son advocated the election of president for a short time, the election of all officers to be held often, and to keep the govern meut we'll in the hands of the people. Now desire to ask why it is that when Republicans get together to talk Hamilton is their subject, just as Jefferson is our subject. They must believe in the Hamiltonian theory. But who would have a president elected for life? The great Grant, the victorious general, failed to achieve the third term even though four-year period inter- vened between the two terms and the third one sought, and no other man will be able to remain in office longer. It is now becom- ing most popular to elect senators by direct vote of the people, and the idea of getting the govern ment closer to the people IS spreading.

part she has played Tn settling this great state to the west and aiding in establishing state government.
 The newspaper men are to be put in this class, also. That is, the best of them. There are some who run paper for the purpose of hypnotizing the people while the owners of the paper rob the people. This more often applies to the larger city papers where the editor can't be located. The average country paper be- longs to and is with the common people and working for their interests.
 The teachers, also, are entitled to entrance into this class. They teach the children of the people. The preachers and the priests are also in the class and they are entitled to this honor. Do not make an attempt to lift yourself from this class, but make au effort to elevate the level of the class for the general good.
 There are two theories of gov ernment. One is that the govern ment should be kept near the people, and that they should really govern at all times. The other is that the government should be controlled by few and that the people should have nothing to do with the matter. Ii has been sand that the mon. archy is the strongest government, that the aristocracy is the wisesi government and that the demo. cratic form is the most just. l deny a great part of that. The
 monarchy is not the strongest
 but believe with the historian,
 Bancroft, that the republian form

 Mr.Bryan then offered the audi euce a choice of three lectures. "The Prince of Peace, "a religious topic; 1.-The Old World and Its Ways" a story of his travels, and "The Average Man" political lecture. The audience very plainly made known it's preference for talk on politics.
 MT. Bryan then said, in part:
 1 feel like making au apology for making political speech these latter times, for 1t is diffi- cult for me to make a political speech today and have the Presi- dent make the same speech to- morrow or soon thereafter. But the Democratic platform is for use and I am glad that If we can not get an opportunity to use it, the Republicans will use 1t for us.

Just before election 1t cannot be done, for po- litical reasons, and just after the election they point to Republican success as vindication of their position. One time it is too soon and then it IS too late.

 Recently hegovernment loaned the New York banks $230, 900, GOO to lend again to the people at high rate of interest, and on top of that we have just issued a batch of bonds to get more money to lend the banks to be loaned in turn to the people for high inter- est, and the people are to pay three per cent to get this money to lend them. The best way to restore confidence is to insure the banks deposits.
 This matter of swollen for tunes has been weighing heavily on my mind, but Senator Bever- :dge of Indiana has said limit should be placed on the amount of money a man should be al- lowed to own, and when l found that he placed this amount at Sl00, ,000,0 900, I was satisfied that it would not hurt many of us. 1t would take the President of the United States 2,000 years to make SlOo, 000,00 and the rail- road president who makes $l00,- 900 a year would have to have twice as many lives as a cat and 1 live 50 years in each to make that

the President and myself as birds, but The President was on the nest while I was still on the limb. It showed that the Presi- dent had feathered his nest well with feathers plucked from me. 1 was left with but one feather, that of the tariff reform, and the question was raised as to whether he would not soon get that. l want to say that the tariff reform is not the last feather 1 have, and that there are others growing. And I want to say right here that there never was time when the lines between the two parties were so loosely drawn as at present. There is less difference between the parties today than in the history of the world.
 In my recent travels I visited Mexico. There he ruling class of people are we'll to do, and a visit to their homes find them possessed of the comforts of life. But on the streets 1 found those who were not so fortunate. These were extremely poor people, who are the laborers. There is no middle class in Mexico, the aver age line of skilled work is beneath the upper class and the lower class is too ignorant and helpless to do it, therefore I found Ameri. cans in charge of tue railroads, and in all lines of business the foreigner is in evidence.
 Ia Asia, Europe and other foreign countries I found much the same conditions. In England I found the land tenant system, where the same land had passed down for hundreds of years in one family, and the same 200 families to one landlord had paid rent on this land all that time. The landlord could not sell and the tenants always too poor to buy. I shall never cease to pray that our country shall ever be spared the curse of this landlord system.
 We have the greatest average man in the world. My paper, The Commoner, was named for the common people and it is meant to be the exponent of the rights of this class. Lincoln quantity put the matter in this light, when he declared that God must have thought more of the common people than others be. cause he made so many of them, The Bible, even, speaks of the common people when in speaking of the teachings of Christ 1t says "the common people heard hin gladly"
