WOULD CHANGE SCHOOL LAWS.

John z. Riggs, state superintendent
of public instruction, believes the
state school laws should be generally
revised and rewritten, and so recon-
mends in his biennial report, sub
mitted to Governor Carroll.
He sets out eight changes which he
believes should be made. Among them
Is one favoring the abolition of the
office Of school treasurer. His recon-
mendations for new laws follow:
Firss-A single and efficient form
OF rural school organization and
control. Gle declares there are at pres
ent three forms Of organization for
rural b schools which account in a
great measure for the confusion in
the school laws. He advocates a law
making each township school dis
trict in itself with school board Sc
lected at large from the township
Second-The powers and duties of
the country boards of education
should be enlarged to permit of great
er service by the board to the schools.
Third-The Office of school treas
urer should be abolished (He de-
clares the present system to be cum
bersome and costly to the taxpayers
OF the state sn6 tia tfu .una s5nn,yl,
be handled by the county treasurer)
Fourth-The temporary closing of
all schools have an attendance less
than six. on the theory that schools
having such small attendance can not
do effective work.
Fifth - High school privileges
should be offered all youths at the
expense OF the district of their resi-
dence
Sixth-The salary of the safe SUI
pefintendent of public instruction
should be increased to $4,000
Seventh Sundry sections OF the
school laws now containing unneces-
sary restrictions should be amended.
Eighth-The law should provide
greater safeguards for the health and
comfort of the children. All boards
he declares, should be empowered to
employ medical inspectors or trained
nurses to inspect schools not less
than once month.

The Quincy Divorce Case.

Galesburg Republican-Register: 1t
now looks as if the divorce proceed
ings instituted by the Quincy base
ball association against the Central
league would succeed. The rest OF
the companies have about concluded
that it is better not to live longer
with such a common scold It is to
be doubted whether IL Quincy gets In
10 another league she will be any bet
ter satisfied. She seems to have the
fault finding habit and to see moth
ing good In the world But here is
hoping that after she gets ont of the
miserable company. as she thinks.
with which she has been associated
the past year she may find more con
genial association and begin to smile.
That so good a city should manifest
so bitter a spirit toward sister cities
is somewhat surprising.
The row that she has kicked up In
this league will not leave pleasant
impression.

keokuk's Llteratl

Burlington Saturday Evening Post:
keokuk has been an intellectually am.
bilious community from the day that
R. B. Ogden established the first
printing Office there. 1t has produced
eminent men and women and authors
OF repute. In The Gate City of recent
date there is sketch of the group
OF writer's who have assisted by the
exercise of their talents in making
place for heokuk in the list of com
munities that are literary in their
gifts and accomplishments. The art
icle is inspired by the creation of
nook in the Keokuk library for the
works OF Keokulk authors. and which
contains also a scrap-book with biog-
raphies OF Keokuk's literary prodigies
In the list is Mark Twain, Rupert
Hughes. Margaret Collier. Walter
Barr, Sue Clagett, Kate Harrington,
John Burgess, Frank g. Moorhead, D.
B. Smith, Mrs. Bartlett, George p.
Wilkinson, Virginia WINS and Col. }.
NJ Reid Seriously, this is a formid-
able array of intellect A community
blessed with such minds in their day
and possessed of their memory with
out day is rich indeed Yet ,Keokuk
is richer even than this. For over
and beyond all OF these it had Sam
Clark. 1t had Sam Clark and it still
has him. Generations will not suf-
fee to efface his influence from the
Keokuk character. A few volumes.
or at most a dozen, sum up the
compass, the comprehension of the
conventional Keokuk author. Aside
from Mark Twain the volumes are
few, and some of them are thin and
unpretentious Sam Clark on the
other hand wrote volumes each year.
and he kept it up for thirty-fve years.
His thought touched every relation
which men and women bear to earn
est, fruitful cumulative life. In all OF
his composition it would be difficult
to find one idle word. Ten years after
his death he is still the biggest man
in Keokuh because the receptive
minds there all have been fortified
and endowed by his wise and fine
philosophy Of life. Rather strangely
we think the Keokuk compiler OF
home authors has overlooked the fact
that Mr. Clark was the most sane
and profound author and thinker that
the community has produced and that
his place at the head of the list.

A prominent railway official is
quoted by the Cedar Falls Record to
the effect that when the people let
up on the railways and show some in
terest in their successful operation
rather than disposition to bankrupt
them the Illinois Central will double
track its line from Chicago to Fort
Dodge. The Record declares that the
need of such an improvement is
most urgent, but concede3 that the at
titude Of a lot of politicians and
muck-rakers toward these corpora
lions has so crippled their credit that
money cannot be procured to make
the necessary Improvements.

H. J. Waters, President Of the
State Agricultural college Of Kansas,
in talk before the Des Moines Ad
mems club, predicted that the drift
of population will be toward Iowa and
the other states of the middle west in
the next fifty years. He declared that
the trend of population from this sec.
ton at this time is only temporary:
that this section is the greatest dis.
trict OF fertile soil and favorable eli.
mate in the world, and it must be.
come the center of population as
well as the cen:er OF productivity
with the passing years. Continuing,
he said
There IS no economic reason why
Iowa and the middle west should not
Increase IN noDrlation The troubie
now is that there are too many men
between the consumer and the pro-
Queer. The soil OF Iowa is fertile
enough to suppor5 population five
or ten times as great as 1t is now
