The Conference of
Educators at Jacksonville.

No more important conference can
we'll be thought of than that to be
held in Jacksonville September 4th
to arrange for an educational cam
paign throughout the state, continu
ing from September Goth to the end
of the year. Many educators of ex-
perience and reputation are to take
part in the; conference and these will
subsequently visit all sections of the
state in a lecture tour to arouse I'M
fversal interest in the greatest secu-
lar need of the world today as it has
been since the creation-the educa-
ton Of the masses.
And the people Of Florida should
congratulate themselves upon pos
sessing educators who are evidently
so keenIy alive to this necessity,
who so fully realize that the future
peace. happiness. prosperity and
health of the state depend upon the
acquisition of knowledge by the ris-
ing generations, and who so geneT-

COGNIZANCE TAKEN OF
CHARGES OF SUBORDINATE
Rv AssoeIated Press.

Washington, Aug. 25.-The presi-
dent has taken cognizance of charges
made against his supeTiors by L. S.
CLAWS, chief of the division of the
general land office in the northwest
with headquarters at Seattle.
Mr.. CLAWS has presented a report
to the president in which he is under
stood to have attempted to show that
high officials of the interior depart
ment have been unnecessarily con-
ceTned in the expedition of what are
known as the Cunningham claims to
valuable coal lands in Alaska and in
so doing had acted entirely independ-
ent Of the general officers of the de-
partment.
The officials are much incensed
over the report but they take the po-
sitiOn that as they are preparing q
report for the president, their lips are
necessarily sealed against any out
side discussion of the subject.
Privately the officials express in
dignation regarding the report and
say that at the proper time they will
have no difficulty in convincing the
public of the probity of their conduct
in the matter.

AT MINING SUPERINTE NDENT

Carlisle, Ind, Aug. 25.-American

of GustaYe Stievenart, Superintend-
ent of the Carlisle Coal and Clay

wounds are not serious The miners
who did the shooting are believed to
be from outside mining towns and
they left Carlisle on the midnight
train before Sheriff Frank While ar
rived from Sullivan. No arrests were
made. The trouble resulted from
alleged plans of superintendent Site

Prison Reform In

Prison reform has been advocated
many years by the leading phiIan-
thropists of the world and also by
those who have seen that therein lies
the secret of improving the general
standard of morality throughout So
ciety by reforming rather than pun
ishing criminals. The crusade has
resulted in a wonderful improve

to prisoners-the cleanliness of their
surroundings. an effort at moral

us about it; for we never knew

Connecticut:

of honor among the Litchfield pris-
OnerS and they are not going to en-
baTTass JaiIeT Catlin- All the 80

There is no good reason to doubt |
the accuracy of this story. We can |
think of no cause which would in
duce the big Philadelphia newspaper
to manufacture it out of whole cloth |
And it certainly reflects great credit
upon the LitchfieId jailer, Truman
Catlin; for he seems to be far, far

1t is scarcely possible that a single |
reader of The Journal was aware that |
such a state of things existed in a |
penal institution in any part of the |
country, OF that it would be possible |
to conduct such an institution along |
the plan in actual operation in the |
Connecticut city. The knowledge |
will cause many eyes to open and |
many hearts to understand that there |
is hope even for the "viIest sinner" |
the most hardened criminal, and that |
well conceived and cOnscientiously |
applied methods of reform will dc |
more toward the ultimate elimination |
of crime than vengeful, condign pun

thousands of years of trial.
