AAA4G9@AVM 81 1VhNA 4AAMGMAGHa
II is often a matter Of surprise b
people OF this country who are aware
Of the large number Of highly educated
men and women Of native birth and
training In South America that CIV
illzatlon there ls backward In COM
parison with the United States and
Canada, for instance. Light Is thrown
upon this subject by Professor W. r.
Shepherd OF Columbia university,
whose observations on recent trip
are set forth In the Review of Re
views. Briefly 1t Is gathered from
Professor Shepherds showing that,
while there il much education in the
South American states, 1t is not Of the
right kind He quotes Chilean au-
thority. who critlcises the system in
his own country as follows:
A capital fault in our method Of in
structiOn Ii Its academic and theoretical
character of effiorescence and ostentation.
We do not try to prepare the youthful
mind for the daily struggle Of existence.
to teach our young people along lines
that are really practical. that bear upon
industry and upon making use of the
active forces OF the country. On the
contrary before everything else we turn
out academic debaters. aggressive rhetori-
clans and voluble takers, who often run
politics into the ground The utmost APP
parently that can come forth from our
universities. even the best and most Sc
lect Of them. Is a quantity OF doctors.
lawyers and engineers, a number OF
fell snyltk a f,.tz
and who, without realizing It, rush into
professional and titular encounters. We
have surfeit of lawyers and doctors.
Professor Shepherd remarks that
this criticism applies to all South
American republics and proceeds to
an explanation Of the origin and tend
eneies Of the educational Influences
now at work In several Of the more
progressive states The basis Of cul-
ture Is Spanish or Portuguese, and
upon that is laid a French veneer.
French power dominates in astrono-
my and in fine arts, and German sway
In apparent In the natural sciences.
French ideals prevail In Chile and Ger
man In Brazil. In the latter country
the authorities in certain provinces
have found 1t necessary to encourage
the teaching of the national tongue,
the Portuguese. From this readiness
of the people to borrow and to initiate
culture 1t may be inferred that edu-
cation is looked upon in South Ameri-
ca as an adornment, not as a vital ele-
ment of race progress, and it is easily
conceivable that the educational sys-
tenn applied to the masses, however
generously supported, lacks practicali-
ty and directness, as Professor Shep-
herd asserts.

Man as a Bird.

Ever since man learned how to take
long and high flights In the upper air
he has been eager to become the mas
ter of air The balloon is only leaf
or feather, always the sport Of the
wind. 1t has served a good turn in
war, and 1t is natural that 1t should
inspire men like the Wrights, Pro
fessor Langley and Santos Dumont to
aim at greater perfection in aerial nav
igatlon. The sea was feared for centu-
ries. Today 1t is only canal between
domlnions which want to trade.
The wild flight of the balloon has
been curbed. Santos-Dumont has CIV
en- a gas reservoir that can be pro
PEELED and guided at Its masters will.
But this device, the alrshlp, can carry
but little weight and is not controlla-
BILE in a strong wind. 1t would be as
sensible to try to navigate the widest
sea In q fair weather boat as to risk
life and treasure In the best airship
yet constructed. Santos Dumont. the
expert on the airship, has practically
declared that the future of aerial navi-
cation Is for the device which the
Wrights are working upon, a machine
which win initiate the flight Of bird.
OF course the bird was created to ny
and to live In the air. But man seems
to be an invader up there. The ele-
ments are hostile to his daring arabi-
ton. The air has yielded electricity
to mans uses, Perhaps 1t has In re-

bird can rest and float upon. The man
who discovers that element win vie

who applies 1t may outrank Morse and
Edison as a worker Of marvels.

HEEDING THE PROTEST.

The night the Press has been max
ing against an excessive tax levy of
$4,000 which, added to the fines
and license money, estimated to
amount to $4,000, making a total
revenue of Sal, 900, seems to be hay-
ing the desired effect, as some one
has written an editorial for the
Journal In which an attempt Is made
to twist the facts around and deceive
the people just as 1t did when the
Press showed that the city had no
title to a lot on which 1t proposed
to build a city hall. The tax ques-
tion will come out the same way and
the editorial defending the admins
tration Is an effort to let 1t down
easy, and shows that the protests
are being heard by the city council
and will be considered, and an
eHort be made to retrench.
II they will go over the whole ques-
tion carefully and economize where
possible, the people may overlook the
fact that the library has been cut
out of the budget for the coming
year, especially since the power he.
hind the throne has stated that
This city does not need a library
The people viii be pleased to learn
that the organ has made the an
nouncement that the city admins
tratlOn il listening to the universal
protest on the question of raising
the levy on top OF 400 per cent
raise in valuation by the assessor. 1t
Is fortunate that the matter has been
aired to show that the sentiment OF
the people Is unanimous ON the sub
ject. We believe the desired reduc-
ton will be accomplished from the
agitation and that is all any one
demands. We are willing that the
Journal should go down the tobog-
gan slide without losing any more
skin than is necessary in the act.
There Is one true statement In the
Journals mess OF pottage, and It is
that the levy last year for city pur-
poses was 12 mills instead of 10 as
stated by the Press, and we make
that correction because we have no
desire to misstate figures and called
up officials at Rathdrum yesterday
to ascertain this fact. Aside from
this there Is no other statement mada
by the Press that is not fact Com
missioner Busby says, In an inter
view published elsewhere, that the
board Of equalization may reduce the
valuations TO fair basis. II this is
done and the city council uses the
proper care in economizing and re-
ducing the levy to a minimum every
one will be satisfied, and we see no
reason why this should not be done.
Then there will be one other matter
which the people demand of the
council and that is the quarterly pub
llcation of receipts and expenditures
by the city treasurer,

UNITE NORTH AND SOUTH.
Club Of Distinguished Men in Session
Today.


Today.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, June 25.
TO proved a place where the lead
ing men of the North and South may
meet on common ground and to es-
tablish a greater degree of social
solidarity between the once warning
sections of the Union Is the object OF
the promoters of the Interstate club,
which meets here today. Coincident
with the session Is the beginning OF
the Chattanooga home coming" fes-
tival, which has attracted hundreds
of visitors and former residents Of
the city.
President Roosevelt, William J.
Bryan and VIce-President Fairbanks
are among the honorary members Of
the club, and the officers include, as
vice-presidents, Secretary Root,
Speaker Cannon, Secretary Taft, Les
lie M. Shaw, Senator Aldrich, Mel
Vile E. Stone, Senator Bob" Taylor
and Governor Patterson of Tennessee.
Senator Blackburn is president.
The club has acquired tract of
81, 900 acres on the highland sur
rounding Signal Point, directly across
the Tennessee river from Lookout
Mountain. Steps will be taken at
this meeting to erect a magnificent
club house on this tract, with lofty
dome, from which nine states will be
visible. At this club house the lead
ers of the nation will meet to fish,
hunt and indulge in social recrea-
lions.
In describing the purposes of the
club, Vice-President Bowman said:
THE club was organized and in
oorporated under the laws of Tonnes
see, and is fast growing to be one
of the largest organizations of its
kind in the world, including in it's
membership many of our distinguish
ed men, among them the president.

Stream Flow In the Appalaehians.
The geological survey has kept q
record OF the stream fiow in the APP
palachlans for a number Of years and
recently made careful study Of the
possibilities Of storage reservoirs In
that region. II indiscriminate cutting
OF the forests on the crests Of the wa
tershed can be stopped, there Is d pos
sibility, according to recent report Of
the experts, OF increasing the develop
ment OF power up to anywhere from
three to thirty times the 100000
horse power at present available With
out It almost nothing can be done
The method proposed to develop the
Appalachian river resources TO the to-
tai Of 100000 horsepower Is by stor-
age reservoirs, which would catch the
surplus waters OF the spring and re-
tain them until the summer months,
when the mills now have to fall back
on fuel or close down.
II is estimated that there Is at least
100000 indicated horsepower devel-
oped by the streams which have their
headwaters on this watershed. and
more than half of this indicated power
IL available for economic development.
Only comparatively small part OF
the power available has been made use
of yet, but the portion that has been
utilized has been one of the most i'm
portant factors in the recent Industrial
development Of the south. In the flu
ture the use OF this power and It's
value are bound to increase tre-
mendously. Manufacturing plants are
constantly increasing In number in the
region. Moreover. water power will
be more and more in demand on ac-
count OF the increasing cost Of fuel
power through dwindllng fuel re-
sources Of the country. Already the
water power costs much less than the
fuel. and the difference will inevitably
grow greater One great difficulty con-
fronting the users OF water power Is
the fact that 1t cannot be depended
upon the year around. but must be
supplemented and replaced for some
weeks or months every summer by
costly fuel power because the streams
run too low to be OF service.
More than this, as the years go on
mill owners are painfully aware that
the low water periods are growing
longer and longer This is because the
forests at the headwaters Of the
streams are being cut Off, with the re-
suit that the melting winter SHOWS and
the spring rains pour of the denuded
and hardened land I'm devastating
floods, sending down for few weeks
far more water than they can use and,
moreover reducing the capacity and
usefulness OF their mill ponds by filling
them with hundreds Of tons Of sand
and soil which the floods scour OF the
unprotected upper slopes. The experts
OF the geological survey who made the
investigation, after picking out reser-
voir sites and estimating their capaci-
~ and the area from which they
would receive the run-off, consider their
figures as given extremely conserva-
tive and the benefits promised worth
considerable outlay in money.

Art Frauds.

Fraud scandals in the trade of pic
lures. historic relics and other objects
where the buyer must take the vender
on faith, as rule, have been numer-
GUS, but the impression has been that
worst offenders were those Europeans
who impose on American tourists. Re
Gently II has been shown that pictures
by prominent American artists have
been forged in such manner that an
expert could scarcely detect the fraud
This doesn't indicate lack OF ability
In our connolsseurs, because the best
judges employed to select pictures for
the famous galleries OF Europe have
been imposed upon In their own spe-
cialtles.
