New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1909-09-29

The mourning caused by the death
of Gov. John A. johnson is not limi-
ted to the commonwealth of Minneso-
ia. 1t is general throughout this
broad land of ours. It is not Mime
sofa alone, but the nation at large
that suffers a great loss by his untime-
ly demise. Johnson was one of those
historical men who, born and reared
under peculiar circumstances, are de-
stined by nature to perform a particu-
lar duty. He.came from the common
people and therefore knew their wants.
Poverty surrounded his cradle and
self denial was the steady companion
of his childhood. He obtained the
intellectual equipment in the hard
school of life and when called to the
high and responsible position of pub
dc trust, this man, educated by the
hard knocks of experience, fully met
all expectations---he made good. In
stead of experimenting with theories,
or relying on party platforms and---
promises, he used good common
sense, and therefore seldom made a
blunder. He was the most popular
and beloved governor Minnesota ever
had and would have been a splendid
president for the entire country.
The commercialized idea of educa-
ton for the poor--that of giving them
just the education to make them good
employees is fully exempliied in the
latest educational wrinkle in Chicago.
The plan is ostensibly to faid the boy
who works. He is to toll in the fac
tory one week and go to school the
next. But what sort of schooling is
to be given? Industrial and nothing
more. In his alternate weeks in school
he is to be taught how to. work better.
Ia Paris, France, another sort of ed
vocational system for poor children
has had its beginning. Under this
plan the parents of such children are
recompensedo out ofthe public treasury,
while the children are sent to school
and given full and complete educa-
tlon, not simply taught to toll. The
Chicago plan will be tried at the Far
ragut school. Spaulding avenue and
Twenty third street, in the heart of the
district. Frank T.
Morse, principal, conceived the idea
of asking employers of children to
allow them to work altern ate weeks in
The factories and shops and to attend
school the other weeks.

NO BUDGET COMPROMISE.
King Edscard Still EndearOring to
PreUent Crisis.

London Oct. THE King thus far has been
unsuccessful in arranging a compromise in the
budget controversy. His majesty is still trying,
however. 10 prevent crisis and to-day had an
other consultation with Premier Asquith, who
prolonged his visit at BaImoral Castle.
AS time passes the difficulties in avoiding
conflict between the Commons and the Lords
increase. the strong party men Of both sides
being eager for the fight. The Liberal mem
bers. who scattered TO their constituencies when
the debate the finance bill was adjourned,
in their speeches contend that the concessions
made since the bill introduced should sat
isfy its opponents. and express themselves
strongly opposed to any compromise.
on the other hand, the Unionists, who have
made all preparations for the election, are urg-
ing the leaders 10 do nothing that might prevent
an immediate appeal 10 the people. They have
seized upon Mr.. Redmond's statement to Amer
Tea, that the last obstacle to Home Rule would
have gone with the disappearance of the veto
OF the House Of Lords. and are declaring that
"a vote for the budget is vote for Home Rule
In the mean time. the House Of Lords is rad-N
ically amending the Irish land bill. The Lords
threw out the clauses providing for compulsory
purchase thus raising another issue between
the two houses The Nationalists have already
announced that they will insist upon restoring
these clauses when the bill returns to the House
Of Commons
