COUNTY DIVISION
GOES MERRILY APACE
Petitions are Rapidly Signed
People Line Up
Enthusiasts Will be Rewarded by
Many encouraging Results.

such petitions have been circulat-
ed, not single person failed to
sign it. These petitions are being
vigorously pushed every day. and
indications are, that everybody in
terested will sign up. It will not
be long before one will be able to
tell how great the demand is, and
we are sure the result will be a
surprise to all.
The statement has been adyanc.
ed by some in the press, that ow-
mig to the fact, that Miles City
contains preponderence of the
vote of Custer county, that that
The Wibaux pioneer. [volume] (Wibaux, Mont.) 1907-1919, 1910-11-18

can only follow proclamation by
the governor. When the last leg
islature was elected there were two
ties, but no special elections were
held. No United States seoator
was to be elected and the counties
concerned were willing to forego
the full quota of their repres ent-
alton, in the interests of economy.
On the face of their returns the
democrats have a shade the best
of it.
Both sides are prone to exagger-
alton. Word was received in Butte
last night from democratic head
quarters in Helena thas, conced-
ing all the republicans claimed the
democrats would have a majority
Of four. The probable democratic
majority was placed at 10. Re
publican chairman Waite has been
claiming four republicans from
Silver Bow. while the best infor-
nation is that there will not be
more than one.
An associated press dispatch was
sent out from Helena late last
night saying that the democrats
claimed the Legislature on Joint
ballot by 81. This is only one
more than the number necessary
to a choice, the total membership
Of the two houses being 1O2.
The Wibaux pioneer. [volume] (Wibaux, Mont.) 1907-1919, 1910-11-18

city will be able to take care of the
matter, when submitted to the peo-
pie. But these parties have for
gotten, that this question is solely
vested in the peoples represent
atives, and will never be referred
to the people direct, but Will be a
matter FOR our Legislature to dis
pose Of; and we entertain no grave
fears of it's disapproval; but have
every reason for its successful ter
mination, when it reaches that
body.
We see no argument whatever
against division and the only quest
ion left is to sign the petition when
presented. Let every one take an
active part in the campaign, and
the united front that the constitu-
ents Of this territory are putting up
will render the position that our
representatives take in the matter
logical and reasonable.
The Wibaux pioneer. [volume] (Wibaux, Mont.) 1907-1919, 1910-11-18

The prospect now looks bright
for the county division. Every
thing is coming our way. Unan-
unity of action appears everywhere
Very little dissent has as yet been
discovered.
1t has been generally insinuated
that the newly proposed county
would make the taxes almost
burden too heavy to bear. That
it would snow it's constituents un-
der financially, that they would
cripple their future and embarras
themselves for all time. But in
this connection it must be remem-
bered, that the assessed valuation
of Dawson county in the years of
1898 and 1899 was a great deal
smaller than the assessed valuation
would be in the newly proposed
county. In the year 1900 the as.
sessed valuation was two million
dollars for on!county, the size
OF the county being, about a hun
dred miles wide by two hundred
miles long, and the newly propos-
ed county, being about twenty four
miles vide by about sixty miles
long and yet. it has valuation eq-
ual to Dawson county in the year
1900. It is apparent from these
figures that the new county prop
osition is perfectly safe as far as
its financial outlook is concerned.
1t is self-evident that it is compe
tent to manage it's own affairs.
There is not only financial en-
couragement offered to the resi-.
dents in this new territory, but we
have the assurance from Senator
McCone that if the people within
the bounds of this newly proposed
county generally, demand 4 d.
vision, that he will do all in his
power to bring it to pass. We have
further assurance from other exec
utive officers that everything will
be done to meet the wishes of the
citizens in the eastern part of Daw-
son county and the northeastern
part of Custer.
Petitions have already been cir
ulated in many Of the townships

A PLEA FOR HIGHER
EDUCATION BY A
HIGH SCHOOL GIRL

Although it IS question that has
of late been widely discussed, few peo-
pie realize that Delaware girls have
less educational advantages than the
girls Of amy other State.
Delaware is the only State i'll the
Union that has not recognized its duty
toward the young women The lack
of provision for the higher education
of girls has for many years been a
CARING deiect in the educational sys-
TEN of Delaware. 1t is, of course, not
function of the State to assume en-
tire charge Of the higher education
of either men or women. The State
it is doubtful if more can be asked.
owes the public schools to the people;
1t is especially questionable if a State
can be Justly asked to provide purely
CLASSICAL or technical schools.
There is i'll Delaware, only one such
school which girls may attend, that
provides courses higher than those OF
the average public school, This
school. UNCONVENTIONAL one, is the
Wilmington Conference Academy at
Dover. The training received here is
little, if any, better than that received
in some of the high schools.
Normal schools, educational land
grant colleges, art and industrial
schools provide higher education for
girls in many other States.
The utility argument Tor a higher
school for girls lies i'll its value as a
training school for teachers. Many of
our Delaware teachers have been poor
ly prepared for the important work i'll
which they are engaged. This poor
preparation is largely due to the fact
that they have not had the means to
attend schools in other States. At
present most OF o,r teachers are
learning their art only through ex-
perience. That experience is gained
at the expense of hundreds of child
rem in the schools. This is educa-
tional waste and injustice to the child
rem, two factors no sen respecting
State should tolerate
The education of the girls is one
of the gravest questions Delawareans
of today have to consider, for upon the
settlement o fthis question depends
largely our place of honor among the
States. If the girls, who are to be-
come the mothers OF future genera
tons. were educatedt it would do
much toward banishing political cor
ruption from our State.
The society also Of today, demands
that a girl have higher education.
The most feasible plan to provide nor
NAL and other courses for girls seems
to be the establishment OF a women's
college in some connection with Della
ware College. The two institutions
might use different buildings, but could
have practically the same president,
the same faculty and the same courses.

course would be one in normal train
ing.
If the school were connected with
Delaware College, it would receive
part of the national aid now given to
to be supported by appropriations
from the State and by the small fees
paid by the students every term.
There are those who might object
to having a girls school established
in Delaware on the ground that there
is no real need ,or such school since
q ire are many girls colleges in
neighboril1g States which DelaFware
girls may attend. Although there are
many colleges in other States which
women may attend, it is not the duty
Of those States to provide a higher
education for Delawareans and it
would be less expensive surely if the
Delaware girls could attend school
in their OWN State.
Some, too, may say it is too expen-
sive for our area and population to
have a separate school. Although
our area is small, certainly we can
afford to have at least one girls
school in the State. That probably
only small number would enroll in
the school is another argument. There
would surely be sufficient enrolment
to meet the needs OF the school. And
SO there may be many other objections
but all are of little value
The majority of girls through tho
college training will have strength
ened their characters, and broadened
their capacity for systematic work and
thought, so that they are better pre-
pared to take up domestic problems,
than most girls OF less educational
advantages.
AS a result of this school, Delaware
would no longer need to give scholar
ships to Normal schools in neighbor-
ing States and she would also have
better teachers.
1t is evident that the State in mere
justice, must either admit women to
Delaware College or make provision
for their training in similar courses in
another institution in the State.
