Good Advice.

The Institute Monthly. published n
the interest Of the West Virginia
colored Institute, contains the fol-
lowing words of good advice to It's
young men readers which could prof
itably be needed by many more
young colored men, as well as 9TH
ers:
Scores of u boys are standing
around the corners OF our streets
discussing the relative benefits to- be
obtained from a classical and Indus
trial education, while at the same
time they are putting forth no effort
to secure either. Do not waste prec-
ious time arguing about the kind OF
education, for youth will fly away on
golden wings and when an education
is most needed manhood Will find You
without the knowledge of a trade
and with only education enough to
make you a polished loafer. too
proud to work with your hands and
too ignorant to live honestly without
it. Such young men grow into the
drifting class daily trying to get
something for nothing; the class that
lives from hand to mouth and ekes
out a miserable existence by preylng
upon others. Hundreds of half-ed-
ucated, wen dressed negro youths in
the large cities live by cheating, gam
bling and borrowing from silly SER
want girls.
Ws\ are sending this little paper
broadcast throughout the state with
the earnes hope that It may awaken
some of our young men whose
thoughts have never been .~concentra-
ted upon anything more weightly
than the color of their cravats or the
shape of the latest shoe.
Train the hands to work, the mind
to think. and the heart to love-. Make
every sacrifice to secure an educa-
ton for, the time Is not distant when
ignorance ana crime will be placed
upon the same footing.

school Legislation.

There certainly is no good reason
why general history should not be
taught in the public schools. The
majority of the pupils in this state
never get beyond the public schools.
and certainly every one ought to
J know something about the history
Of the world. 1t seems e. the Tele-
gram the legislature would do bet
ter to increase the efficiency of the
public schools instead of trying to
curtail their usefulness. But,
even the legislature is to be excused
because the people send men there
who r either not acquainted with
educational needs or have gone so
far up in educational lines that they
have lost an appreciation OF what the
public school is. Again, the man who
attended a graded school, or a city
school, where the teacher in one de-
paftment teaches this and no more,
knows But little of, the country
schools wants-with the college man
having far less knowledge, for in
some way not to be explained; he
bias forgotten entirely that he ever
went to the public schools. Indeed,
when 1t comes to educational mat
ters, 1T Is amazing now little some
legislators know about. II. The. edf-
tors of this paper were surprised
when a few years ago there was APP
pointed on a committee to revise the
school laws of the state a man who
we personally know spells the word
"greatful,'' when he means to ex-
press gratitude.

COUNTY POLITICS.
Democrats Make United Effort to Elect
County Superintendent and Sheriff.
Reasons Why Republicans Should
Stick TO Their Ticket.

For several years past it has been
the custom in political campaigns in
WiHneshiek county for the Democrats
to centralize their efforts toward the
election of one or two candidates on
their ticket, paying but little atten.
tion to the others, realizing that the
normal Republican majority is so
large that otherwise it would be i'm
possible for them to elect any officer
This year they appear to have made
She County Superintendent and Sheriff
their target.
They are fortunate in having a par
ticularly strong candidate for the
office of County superintendent, Prof
Sigurd Reque of Luther College. Mr.
Reque is fine fellow, a gentleman,
of scholarly attainment, and a personal
friend of this writer. He is qualified
i'll every way for the position of
County Superintendent except by
special preparation and experience.
1t is quite reasonable to presume that
never until tl,is summer did the idea
of being candidate for County Sup
erintendent occur to him. and then
not until suggested by others. His
training has been entirely in an oppo-

county schools. at no expense to the
county. During the four terms he has
held the office. he has received less in
salary by several hundred dollars than
other county officials, have received
In three terms. These things are stat
ed simply to how that there is little
Justice to the argument against him
that he has been long time in office
At the time of the primaries, when
objections should have been brought
out by Republicans. if they had any,
not a person in Winneshiek county
was even thought Of, either in the
Republican or Democratic party, as
an opponent. 1t was conceded at that
time that he would be nominated and
elected, and we can SEE no just reason
why he should not receive the vote of
every Republican.
AS stated above, the Democrats are
also bending every effort toward the
election of the Democratic candidate
for sheriff, Mr. Philip Carolan. There
is nothing the matter with Mr. Caro-
Ian, he is we'll known citizen of the
county, congenial F., gentlemanly
young man. respected and esteemed bv
all who know him. But that is no
reason why Republicans should vote
for him in preference TO the Republi-
can candidate. Thos. J. Qualley. of
whom the same can be said, and more.
Mr.. Qualley has served two years
and has made good. None can gainsay
that he has not beer an efficient off,
