A NEW WAY WITH THE SSJCS.

A NEW WAY WITH THE CLASSICS.
A commission appointed by the Ameri-
can Pathological Association at its an
nual meeting in 1905 to consider the
reaching of Latin in the nrensrat0ry
schools has made Il report which is n,,b-
lished in ''Tbe Educational Review"
II its plan is followed elasticity will he
impaired to the preparatory course.
which has for n long time consisted
OF the rigid four books OF Caesars Gal
lie War six orations of Cicero and
six books Of Yirgifs 't-Eneid" Cesar's
Civil War" the Lives" of Nepos. the
histories of Sallust, Firgil's minor poems
and some of the poems of Ovid NAV be
substituted for parts of the old require
mentS
The object is plainly TO increase the
interest and variety of preparatory
Latin. TO give the course more human
aspect to the mind Of the student
and to afford him an opportunity of
ranging somewhat more freely over
the simpler Latin literature. But more
interesting than the suggested compass
Of preparatory Latin is the ideal which
the commission would set before the
preparatory schools. The object should
be, in its opinion. to teach the college
entrant 10 read the simpler Latin ''at
sight" The candidate for admission to
college is to be tested in regard to his
ability TO translate passages that he has
never seen before. To read Latin at
sight he should be taught, the comnis-
sion holds. TO read the language as 1t
stands taking in its meaning from the
words exactly in the order IN which they
were written, and without rearranging
them. as the ordinary stndent Of the
classics does.
For example. Horace began the first
Sapphic ode that college students en-
counter thus:
Jam salts terris nivis atque dirR
Grandinis misit pater, etc
That yielded up its meaning TO a
Roman Just as it stood. The American
youth first changes the words in .lis
mind to this order: Pater mist jam
terris salts nivis atque dirfn grandinis,
and then it means something To him.
Thus studied the classics are kind Of
verbal jigsaw puzzle The art Of un-
derstandinc them is that OF reassembling
in logical order u tange of words. But
il is becoming apparent that if they are
10 hold an important place i'll the edu-
cational system of the future it will ne
aS literature. and not as jigsaw puzzles.
The report of the commission looks
throughout, in all its suggestions, 10 the
teaching of them as literature. 1t will
be interesting to sec whether the youth
of the land can be broken of treating
them as jigsaw.

lNsvReENTIsM DYING.

There Is considerable qualification
among the ranks Of the Regular Re-
publicans. Reports are coming from
various parts OF the State that the
people are very little interested in
the cause Of the Valley City Elimina,
ton Committee. otherwise termed in
surgent. The people recognize the
fact that what was once a good cause
Tor the existence OF the insurgent
organization, no longer exists. The
ordinary reading individual knows
that the organization has passed into
the hands OF designing men and that
the insurgentsparty stands for. nothing
now but Office getting. Those who
are acquainted With the political his.
tory OF North Dakota know that the
cause OF the rise of insurgentism was
in abuses suffered in tho old con-
vention system. The primary elect
ion law was one OF the results of the
hght carried on by the insurgent Or
ganizatiOn. The people see now
that that organization which was in
strumental in procuring the enact
ment of the primary law are the ones
who are violating it. The reason of
this violation is because office seek
ing politicians have not control OF the
organization. The purpose Of the
leaders of that organization is not
to further principles but to further
the ambition of some Office seeker.
The people understand and are not
to be fooled by these men. The voter
knows that the only thing any insur-
gent candidate is after is to feed for
time at the public trough. Hun
dreds Of men in various parts Of the
state who at one time were allied
with the insurgent movement Is it
existed in its incipiency, have sever
ed their connection with that organ
ization and are now fighting what is
90 aptly called "The Valley City
Gang" In many communities where
you could two years ago scarcely find
any other brand of Republican, than
insurgent, one cannot now find a man
who is willing to be branded with that
name. People refuse to be longer
called insurgent because they know it
does not stand for what it once stood
for. The wave of insurgentism has
subsidized. The insurgent candidates
are frantically striving to stir up the
peaceful waters of the political sea,
but with all their efforts, scarcely a
ripple is noted on the calm waters
Why? Because the people are salts

WHO - a PROGRESSIVE?
The fire from the batteries OF the
insurgent trenches is in this campaign
directed at Hon. l.. B. Hanna. He
is recognized as the strong candidate
for the nomination to the position he
now holds. The Congressional can.
dddates Of the secret conclave Of
would-be insurgents, are the ones who
are especially anxious that Mr.. Han
ma shall be defeated. About the only
thing they can say about Hanna is
that he is not one of them. He did
not join that bunch and hence they
say he is not progressive. Mr..
Hanna mas shown by his works in
Congress that he is progressive. BY
his consistent, faithful performance Of
his duty, and strict adherence to the
interests of hi sconstituents, he has
merited the name Of progressive,
that is, if the word means anything.
If progressiveness means an insatia-
BILE desire for Office, then Of course,
Hanna is not a progressive. If there
is one thing more than another that
stamps these self styled progressives.
as progressives, it is their inherent
persistent itch for office The man
who contracts the Office seeking dis
ease is in an unfortunate predica-
ment. Other diseases may be cured =.
N opanacea as yet has been found
which will bring relief. Lauder has
held office for twenty years, Helgeson
has in every campaign for that length
of time sought Office, Marshall has
sought and held office since a time
when the memory of man runneth
not to the contrary. It is bred in the
bone Of these men who want office
That is why they are insurgents.
