REDEEMING PLEDGES

The announcement by Speaker Clark
that democratic pledges willibe kept"
may mean much or little. If he means
that some of them will he kept he is
probably right, but if he intended to
convey the meaning that all will be kept
he is wrong. 1t would be impossible to
keep all the pledges.
And it is well for the country that all
the pledges made by the Speakers par
ty can not be kept, for some of them
are exceedingly foolish and would prove
harmful if kept. In fact it is probably
true that the smaller numbers of their
pledges that the Democrats keep, the
better it will be for them and others.
The Democratic congress was not chosen
because Of the pledges its candidates
made, but rather in spite of them and
the people knew that many of these
pledges were not worth keeping. The
change in the politics Of the House mem
bership was due to the Indifference of
Republicans who were discouraged be-
cause of the failure Of members Of their
party to work harmoniously to redeem
pledges favored by large majority of
the people who considered them worth
redemption. The Democratic pledges
OF today do not differ materially from
that party's pledges in other years,
when the people We're careful to see
that Democrats had no opportunity to
redeem them. The Democrats would
fare better if they would do what Pres
ident. Taft requests them to do than in
spending time trying to redeem pledges
which they have made.

The PEOPLES FORUM.
Very Little "Whitewash" applied 10
BrOWninG.

To the Editor of The Republican,:
l have read with great interest the
decision Of the State Board of Education
in the Browning case.
AS | had read the account of the case
as reported in the Democrat and scat
tered broadcast in this section, | was
amazed when | saw the official report.
There is certainly no whitewashing
and no politics in this decision. While
the petition to GUST the superintendent
is dismissed, evidently because so few
Of the charges were tried out and sus-
tanned, if these aren' t Knockout blows
delivered to Browning on the questions
of examinations and school visitation |
never saw any, the State Board
clearly ruling that this duty of super
vision imposed upon the superintendent
is the most important work he has to
perform and nothing should be permitted
10 interfere with Its thorough consider
alton and efficient performance. " and
adjudged him guilty in this respect.
In the light of this Interpretation of
the school law by the State Board in
reference to visiting the schools. we
must pass upon all these years of Brown
ing's administration as q failure as he
HCCiI4' " 4leAFN tANOAca GU iCSS llIdH one
half of the least number of legal visits
required by law.
He has failed to grasp the great es-
sentials of his honorable Office and left
undone the very things which the state
has ordained chat the Superintendent
shall do and which if properly done
would mean so much for our schools.
What more shall be necessary for his
removal?
In the matter of an assistant, the
State Board failed to realize that the
taxpayers of this county for years have
been payinga clerk to perform the office
duties and whatswork has the County
Superintendent in his Office during the
school term except to sign the checks
and record the minutes Of the Board
meetings, provided the clerk and the
commissioners perform their duties as
prescribed by law?
And, Mr.. Editor, can you tell me why
the Democrat doen't send out another
bumper edition containing this time the
full text Of the decision?

Wildcats in West Yira,nia.

The story is being told, based on OBJ
servations made in Pocahontas county,
W. Va, recently by, Charles Wigal, a
travelling man, that wild cats in that
county and other counties in the sec
ton are becoming so numerous that
even whole fiocks of sheep have been
killed recently and that the county court
has offered a reward of 81 for each and
every pelt that is produced by the ma
tives. The hunters and trappers have
recently caught several of the animals
and have been given the promised re-
ward. Wildcats are especially fond of
mutton and of chicken. tits likely that
the county court of Pocahontas, at the
suggestion of the citizens. will increase
the amount of the reward for the cap
ture of the dangerous pests, which on
several occasions have attacked citizens
on the public highway.
