out for the annual convention of the
Southeastern Minnesota Educational
association to be held in Winona Nov.
IL to ID inclusive. President &. E.
Maxwell, of the Winona Normal
School, il at the head of the committee
In charge, and the plans for the meet
ing call for the discussion of topics
live in the educational work. 1t is
expected there will be large attend
ance from all oyer the southeastern
part of the state.
Two large topics have been selected
for consideration: First, "Moral Train
ing in the Public Schools" second,
"Overcrowding of the Course of
Study Both of these topics were
emphasized in the recent declaration
of principles by the national conve n
tod at Cleveland. These two topics
are so fundamental in education that
it behooves every teacher ard, indeed,
every citizen to carefully inquire into
the work of the public schools In these
directions and to make sure that the
sixteen million young Americans
taught at the cost of $s377, 100000 are
really getting an education of a kind
to perpetuate the democracy.

Cannon 4 Traitor

Talking to the largest political meet
ing ever held in Sheboygan, Wis, last
week, Senator La Toilette said that
while he was republican and earnest
ly desired the election of republican
congress men who would support Mr.
Taft and make his administration
successful, still he would rather see a
republican congressman defeated than
to have him 60 to Washington with a
vote to make Cannon speaker again.
ut is my hope and prayer" said La
Toilette, "that Joe Cannon will be
defeated. If there is a man who is a
traitor to the government and who
deserves to be defeated it is Cannon.
The voice of the people is strangled by
this man. There is tyranny there
that makes men cringe, that makes
men towards. o.,
Senator La Toilette also made two
speeches in Milwaukee for the national
republican ticket. In connection with
representative government, the senator
said:
"I'm going to do all l can to clean
up the United States senate. Four
years from now will see republican
senate that is overwhelmingly pro.
gressive."
La Toilette made strong plea for
the election of Taft. He declared that
if Bryan we're elected he could do
nothing in the way of revising the ta-
riff to his liking with republican
senate against him. With a republican
president the senate would be obliged
to cooperate.

after having overthrown the royal
government, he was the most impor.
tant factor In the affairs of the new
country.
Ending an eventful and successful
military career, he retired to his
home at Mount Vernon, Va, f-Om
which place in 1884 he wrote to La
fayette: II have become a private
citizen on the banks of the Potomac,
and under the shadow of my own vine
and fig tree, free from the hustle of
the camp, am solacing myself
with those tranquil enjoyments of
which the soldier who is ever In pur-
suit OF fame, the statesman -. and
the courtier can have little con-
ception."
At the time Washington wrote the
quoted words to Lafayette he had no
thought that he would be called as
tho president OF the republic, the liv-
ing reality of which he had created.
But So and on the 30th day Of April,
1883, having been elected on the

Washington served his country as
its first chief executive for a period
of eight years-two terms-and de-
cliLed a third term. No other presi

that distinction.
The national government, in con.

DRIVEN FROM HOME BY WATER.
Floods Cause Great Damage at Pitts
burg and 10000 Men Are Thrown
Out Of Work.

Pittsburg, Pa.-Spreading ruin and
disaster in its path, the annual food
of the rivers and small streams OF this
section holds Pittsburg in its grasp.
The record food of last year, when
the water reached stage OF thirty
six and one-half feet, caused damage
estimated at $1O.OOOOOO but sufficient
warning was given this year to save
much property.
A conservative estimate places the
number of men thrown out OF work by
the flood here at 10000. This great
increase to the army of unemployed is
expected to result in much suffering.
For weeks charitable organizations
have been soliciting funds for the UNI
employed, and now additional APP
peals have been made for contribu-
tons to assist the flood victims.
A great number OF families have
been compelled TO move their house

On the north side of Pittsburg the
policemen are patroling their beats in
