AFTER every election the winning
side is highly gratihed, while the
losing side is correspondingly disap-
pointed. But the feelings of both
are soon modified by the thought OF
the next election, and the knowledge
that the whlrligig of time may make
the defeated OF to-day the victor OF
tomorrow. And apart from this,
once the fever of excitement has dis
appeared and people calmly consider
the verdict, there is the general rec.
oguition that all parties are earnest
for the nations good, however much
they may differ from one another in
political principles aud methods,

Cannon the Boss.

Oshkosh Northwestern.
Speaker Cannon is coming in for
good many hard knocks these days,
and apparently he deserves them. His
do-nothing, stand-pat policy is irritat-
ing and aggravating to a large portion
of the American people, who believe
that Speaker Cannon is using the
power of his Office as presiding officer
of the house to block legislation that is
needed and demanded by the general
public, and which has been urged by
even the president himself. Unques-
tionably there is something radically
wrong when either house of congress
permits itself to be ruled arbitrarily by
its presiding officer. The cowardice of
the representatives consists in their
failure to curb the power of the speak
er, which they have full authority to
do, ami over throw this czar-hke rule
urder which they chafe and tremble
The present session Of congress has
been characterized by timidity, lassi-
tude and servility. On one side stands
the president with the power Of federal
patronage and the prestige of the
big stick, while on the other side is
Speaker Cannon, by grace of submits
sion one of the most potent autocrats
in the world Between these two

What Makes a Good School.

BY Ex-Gov Hoard,
What makes a good district school?
A good teacher. What makes a good
high school? Good teachers. What
makes a good college or university?
The quality of the teachers and their
teaching It's not the laboratories; 81
is not the fraternitles; it is aot the
athletics: it is not the social features,
although all these are helps. But from
the days of Socrates till now the su-
preme element in teaching is the teach
er The moment we forget this great
central principal then decay and mildew
sets in. Said Adam Smith in regard to
Oxford:
Whatever forces a certain number
Of students to any college or university,
independent of the merit or reputation
of the teachers. tends more or less to
diminish the necessity Of that merit or
reputation
A great teacher can make a universi-
ty, Us Garfield said, of log. 1t is the
contact Of brain on brain. life on life,
inspiration on purpose, that makes a
school worth attending 1t is ,he quail
ty of education. not the quantity of it,
that tells That quality must be inn
parted through contact with the teach
er. When schools get to be so large
that the influence Of the teacher is

Must Raise Prices.

Congressman Snapp, in an address
delivered before the Illinois Daily
Newspaper association, gave the edi-
tors some good advice when he said:
"You newspaper men have seen the
price of everything else advance, but
you have hung back and refused to in
crease the price of your papers. Every
thing else has gone up. The price of
labor in the printing business has adj
vanced twice. The cost of paper has
gone up enormously. And you sat still
and took the loss meekly. What you
ought to do is to get together and meet
the conditions by advancing the price
of your product to the public to cores
pond to the other advances.
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1908-05-21

their meetings are held "after hours. {"
AS the fraternities directly affects the
schools, they are subject to suppression
by the school authorities and those pu-
pills that refuse to abide by the decision
of the authorities may be expelled.
In affirming the decision of the lower
court that sustained the school board of
st. Croix in expelling pupils that caused
to be printed in newspaper verses cal
cnlated to bring ridicule upon the school
teachers AID their authority, the SUI
preme court said that "such power is
essential to the preservation of order,
decency, decorum and good government
within the schools" But this power is
limited to acts of pupils that have "a
direct tendency to influence the conduct
of other pupils while in the school room
to set at naught proper discipline of the
school, to impair the authority of the
teachers, and to bring them into ridicuIe
and contempt"
The decision of the court is unassail-
able, in that it is based on common
sense. The state in providing school ia
cilities extends valuable privilege, but
no child has right to an education at
| the expense of the state. The state in
granting the privilege, is bound to ex-
act respect for its authority and if such
respect is not given it may withdraw
and withhold the privilege from those
that seek to bring the government of
the schools in contempt.

Milwaukee News.
The decision of the Wisconsin su-
preme court sustaining the authority of
school boards to suspend or expel pupils
from the public schools for offenses
committed outside of school hours and
that are calculated to impair discipline
in the schools and bring the authority
of the teachers in contempt and ridicule
is meeting with much favorable COM
ment throughout the country. 1t gener-
ally is recognized that it is necessary to
the welfare of the schools that the
school authorities should have the pow
er to discipline pupils that assume that
so long as they are outside the school
grounds they may do as they please
even if their acts directly affect the con-
troll and conduct of the schools.
