SCHOOLS AGAIN
Open IN V|N|TA
Many Changes Made in City Schools
Since Close of Last Semester
Now in Fine Condition. !.
From Mondays Daily

From Mondays Daily
After a vacation of three months
the public schools of the city were
again opened this morning, and an
army of ruddy-faced school children
swarmed the streets on their way to
school,
The first day was largely given over
to classification of the students and to
the assignment of lessons by the teach.
ers. This morning the classification
occurred and the students are turned
loose to go get the necessary books
for the years work. This afternoon
the lessons were assigned and tolnor-
row actual school work will again be
on as before the vacation.
Many changes have been made in
the schools since the close of the last
semester The high school has been
removed from the public school build
ings to the old Willie Halsell college
building in the north part of town.
This gave room for all of the grades
in the two city buildings without the
use of the third story of the brick
building, that caused the parents so
mucn worry on account of fire last
winter.
The prospect for fine year in the
scity schools was never so good before.
A splendid corps of teachers has been
employed and the schools of Vinita
will be the equal of the best public
schools in the country.
The Sacred Heart Institute, the only
sectarian school in the city opened
last Monday and is now deep in the
school work

| washington, sept. IL. - WneH the
cabinet meets here September 20, in
response to the summons that has
been sent out by President Taft, the
friends and political supporters of the
president will take occasion to confer
Regarding what is considered critical
phase of the political situation. They
will take steps to bring about de-
claration of purpose from Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt just returned
| from preaching the progressive doc
trine in the west, receiving the plau-
dts of the multitude, and permitting
references to himself as a presiden-
tial candidate to go unrebuked.
| Is Roosevelt candidate for the
presidential nomination in 1912? That
| is a question that is being discussed
in every political gathering through
out the country. Tafts friends will de.
mand a showdown at the earliest pos
sible moment. They will insist upon
knowing what r'e Roosevelt's inten-
tions and whether he proposes to per-
nit the use of his name in this respect
| by the insurgent element of the re-
publican party.
sible explanations of the course Col
onel Roosevelt is pursuing. Either he
is following out a carefully conceived
course of conduct intended to make
him the presidential candidate in the
next national convention, or he is en-
gagged in corralling the insurgent
strength among the western states
with the idea of throwing it to Taft
at the right moment Evidence is at
hand in support of both theories. Moth
ing but a definite declaration from
Colonel Roosevelt himself will quiet
the minds of those republicans who
are supporting President Taft and
who are working for his denomination.
Reports of a break between the
president and the ex-president have
been denied with emphasis by both
parties Both aver that nothing has
arisen to disturb the friendship that
has existed between them for years. a
strong political as well as social bond,
and yet events have occurred which
give color to the reports that the two
are not in strict accord upon many
public and other questions.
At Osawatomie Roosevelt preached
the new nationalism," urging greater
exercise of federal power and remark
ing: "The new nationalism puts the
national need before sectional or per-
sonal advantage. 1t is impatient of
the utter confusion that results from
local legislatures attempting to, treat
national issues as local issues" He
also said: This new nationalism re-
CARDS the executive power as the stew
ard of the public welfare. 1t demands
of the judiciary that it shall be inter-
|ested primarily in human welfare rath-
er than in property, just as it demands
that the representative body shall rep
resent all the people rather than any
one class of section of the people"
An analysis of these statements and
|others uttered at the same time show
that the colonel went further in his
declaration of principles than he has
ever gone before; that he is radical
of the radicals and has taken a posi-
ton which President Taft would not
care to occupy. 1t is pointed out that
no man with the legal and judicial
training of President Taft would be
willing to so fount the rights of the
