How to Meet the Demand.
A short while ago the JOURNAL found

"A snort WnllG ago the JOURNAL found
this item in the Luray (Na.) Ne~&:
White school teachers are wanted for Rap
pahannock county. Inspector Russell, of
that school district, says IA number of
vacancies exist in the schools and teachers
are needed badly.
The JOURNAL sent the Item to A. G.
Wilson, county superintendent, and re-
ceived the following reply:
received your clipping from the Iurav
Nc"S concerning scarcity of teachers
There are several schools to be re-Opened
in the eastern part of county next week and
1t is altogether likely that nearly all our idle
teachers will be able to secure situations If
they desire to teach i'll ungradcd schools
| am pleased TO note the demand for
teachers in various parts of the country, and
hope the want will become greater from
year to year until the powers that be are
finally induced to pay sufficient salaries to
attract and retain satisfactory class of pcO-
pie in the schools.
The greatest field for usefulness, and a
field illumincd by the brightest prospect of
successful work in the immediate future is
the Rural School, provision for which, how
ever. is problem the solution of which has
not even been attempted in the past. the
Importance of which is so great that it is al
together likely the L. :. Government will
take a hand and offer such assistance as may
be necessary to secure tirstclass teachers for
Rural Schools. Very truly yours,
\. G.. WIILISON.

reply AS

labor
Eventually the government must con-
Germ itself in the provision of means
which will complete the system OF pop
ular education.
The State and county do well, but the
best is still needful. That is, the gen
eral government should supplement
local work until it is completely efficient.
The education and training of teach
erS should be wrought up to the highest
level of efficiency and the year length
ened from "siX' to at least ten months
To attain this standard of efficiency
the pay must rise to figure that will
make the profession a lure to practical
men and WOmen-a lure

teachers education, and
2, To the pursuit of the practical
teachers vocation.

TOWN AND VICINITY.
The Situation

The Cumberland Ne~s correspondent
wrote in Mondays issue:
From the rains of Saturday Union street
west of Water street, is in a fearful COndi
ton. Last summer there was placed on that
part of Union street layer of soft stone and
yellow earth. That has been crushed and
mixed with the water and melted snow
until there are about six inches Of a rich
yellow mixture resembling prepared mus
tard, but which is nothing but ordinary
sticky mud. At certain points the street is
hardly passable.
Yet this improvement, and more like
it, amounting in cost, it is said to 5000,
was put on

The act of confiscation has not been
judiclally confirmed.
Meanwhile, the people Of Broadway
want to know how the Unonstreet
issue goes before they pay.
If Union street people do not have to
pay, they want Council fair enough to
say ego thou and do not likewise"
If Union-street people have to pay,
there will he not kick on Broadway.

A mob, with eager and morbid JOY,

DlSAPPRoVAL OF
THE ARRANGEMENT

Salt Lake, Sept. 22-Strenuous eX'
ception is taken by the Ministerial as
sociation of Salt Lake City to the ar
rangements made by the general COM
mlttee for the reception of President
w III. Taft According TO unanimous
resolution passed by the association
at a meeting held Tuesday, they not
only disapproyc of the day on which
the living flag and the assembly of
children Is TO be reviewed by Presi-
dent Taft, but they think the time Is
not opportune. They believe that the
foundation should DC held on Satur-
day, and the ministers express the be
lief that the arrangements for the
Sunday functions we're not made by
the consent OF President Taft
Three teachers, representing the
teaching corps of the Oquirrh cchool
addressed a letter to superintendent
d II, Christensen expressing the hope
that the day for the review Of the
children should be set for Friday or
Saturday.
Following is the text of the resolu-
ton adopted unanimously by the Salt
Lake City Ministerial association:
Ministerial Resolution.
We are very much grau6ed that
President Taft has included our beau-
tiful and rapidly growing city in his
public official itinerary. We hold it to
be the duty and wish that II may be
the pleasure OF all loyal citizens TO
give him a cordial welcome. and 10
do everything in their power 10 honor
him. both on account Of his personal
worth and because of the exalted posi-
tion TO which he has been chosen. We
deQlorc tho fact, however. that. in the
program of exercises connected with
his visit as now announced. the prin-
cipal address by the president and the
most important public function In his
honor are arranged to take place on
Sunday.
We believe that II would have been
more in keeping with the traditions Of
this Christian nation, more pleasing
to the president himself. and that II
would have been quite as convenient
for the public, if Saturday had been
chosen for those principal functions
This invasion OF the Sabbath is all
the more GrIeyous because that par
ticular part Of it is chosen which most
seriously intcrfercs with the meeting
of Sunday schools and the gathering
OF congregations in the churches for
the public worship of God; and be-
cause the choice of the day at all was
wholly unnecessary.
We do not believe that either the
day or the hour for these most public
demonstrations has been selected by
the presidents personal choice. He
would never be so unmindful of the
example set in such matters by his
| illustrlous predecessors in Office: nor
would he ever fail Of the respect due
! TO the religious customs of so many
OF his fellow citizens; and least OF
all would he forget the reverence due
to the Divine Being whom he and they
worship.

SUSPECTS ARE
GIVEN LIBERTY

Failing to obtain an Identification
of any of the five men held at the city
Jail since last Sunday as suspects in
connection with the brutal assault
made upon Charles LasSin in the rail-
road yards Saturday afternoon, they
were all released yesterday afternoon
after the injured man had confronted
each one separately and declared that
they did not answer the description
OF the men who attacked him.
Lassin was brought from the hos
pital. where he has been since Satur-
day night, to see IL he could identify
the men. His description of the men
who robbed him of $50 which he had
hidden in his shoe, and then beat him
into unconsciousness with a club. did
not tally In any particular with tho
description which he gave to the off
GERS while in a semi.conscious condi'
ton a short time after he had been
robbed and beaten,
LaSsin says he came 10 Ogden with
one of the men who robbed him. Az
ter walking around the city they went
to the railroad yards and Lassin says
he lay down on the ground and went
TO sleep. When he awoke his shoes
had been removed and he instantly
realized that he had been robbed. As
he turned to see if his companion was
in sight he was struck on the head
with a club which was afterwards
found covered with blood clots and
taken to the police station. Lassin
says he remembered no moro after
this until he was taken TO the hospital
for treatment He says that an in
slant before he was struck on the head
he saw three men standing near, one
of them being his companion who ac-
companied him to ogden,
During the time they spent in Og-
den, Lassin says, he had paid for the
fellows meals and had bought him a

says, was apparently well known in

are being attended.
