A RAILING ACCUS ATION

Superintendent Cary has published
still another railing accusation against
the University of Wisconsin, This last
is more violent than any of his former
unseemly outbreaks. 1t is altogether
unbecoming a man who holds the high
office of Superintendent; but it cannot
harm the University with people who
are we'll informed in regard to educa-
tional matters in Wisconsin. Says
George d, Cline in the Hudson True
Republican:
Superintendent Cary has broken out
again in series of articles in the press
against the University Mr. Cary had
no educational standing till he was
intrusted with the educational interests
of the state Instead of complying
properly under him he spends much of
his time and energy in trying to injure
the most important institution of learn
ing in the state. The greatest educators
in the world commend the State Uni
versity, Mr.. Cary being alone in his
particular kind OF attack. The most
urgent need of the educational interests
of the state is u successor to Superin-
tendent Cary, Superintendent Cary is
elected to oversee the common schools
of the state. This means the country
schools and the grades of the city
schools Now the worst conditions
found in all the educational institutions
of the state are in those schools which
are directly under Mr., Cary and no one
else There is where the bad teaching
of writing and spelling correct English
lies which gives to our schools such
bad repute in the business world. He
is only incidentally member of the
University regents. The president OF
the board says that Cary rarely attends
meetings and takes little interest except
through the newspapers. The friends
e of higher education in the state should
see that strong candidate is put VI
against Mr.. Gary next spring
The very fiery temper Of Mr.. Cary's
onslaught shows that in the contest
between the University and those who
would hinder or hamper her power for
good the University is gaining ground
The chief danger of his words is thai
they may stunt or kill the educational
aspirations of some Of the boys ant
girls Of Wisconsin.

WAGE DEPENDENCE.

Dependence on wages or sal
aries is the rule instead Of the
exception. Every family used to
live in its own house, and even
in towns and cities had a bit of
ground to cultivate. Now In the
older states a majority Of the
people live as tenants in narrow
quarters, with no use Of any
ground, and therefore with no
attachment to their place Of resi-
dence, the majority Of the peo-
pie having become nomadic by
the month or year. When the
prudent and thoughtful MEM
bers Of an American urban COM
munity wish to lay up money
against sickness, accident and
old age, they must now put their
money into savings banks, in
surance companies or the stocks
or bonds Of sound corporations,
instead Of buying more land or
improving their buildings, vehi-
cles or vessels. or adding to the
number Of their live stock or
their tools, as successful Ameri-
cans invariably did for the first
two centuries ON this continent.
They cannot avoid being for the
most part dependent on other
peoples honesty and skill even
for the security OF their savings.

WARS AND SOCIALISM.

There will never be a war be-
tween Germany and England
over the Morocco or any other
question. The workingmen of
those nations would never stand
for it. And for the same reason
there will never be another war
between Germany and France.
With war between Italy and
Turkey socialism has very little
to do, because there are no So
cialists in Turkey and but few
In Italy. But we count at least
100000 Italians under the social
istic flag, and 1t is probable that
these may ask why their govern
ment should expend in war the
millions that could be used in
education and the building Of
factories. 1t Is no exaggeration
to say that the greatest power
for peace in the world today Is
the socialistic movement. The
wars Of the present are fought
for the extension Of trade, but
the workmen have to fight them.
They also have to furnish the
sinews, the money, at least the
largest part of 1t. The only ones
that profit are the traders. the
manufacturers, the bankers and
might add the lawyers. There
fore the working class has no
interest in war.-Congressman

l2,OOOISRFQUIRfD
 FOR REFERENDUM
OPINION OF SEC. HODGES
LITIGATION EXPECTED IF TUR- NER-JACOBSON PETITION
 IS FILED.

Little Lock, August 9.-Instead of the 5000 signatures the opponents of the Turner-Jac acobson bill expect to cause a reference of the bill to the peo- ple, it will take 12,000, according to the calculations of Secretary of State Earle W. Hodges. He states that the initiative and referendum petition re- qnires eight per cent of the number of votes cast for governor in the last general election. This would be a fraction over 12,000, for the vote cast for governor shows 150,856. Secretary Hodges does not expect the petition to pass without a fight, should one with that number of signatures be filed be- fore September 10, when the act will otherwise become effective, because there will be contests on the sigma lures in many instances, and the courts will probably be called upon to settle the question.
