Fav ors the Charter.

Ed, Journal: The new commission
charter, which Is to be voted upon
by the people Of Salem, October 26,
Is arousing much favorable comment,
and some that is not so favorable.
Nearly every one seems to be agreed
that the commission form of govern
ment would be an improvement upon
the present plan, and practically ev-
cry case where 1t has been tried 1t
has proven a success. The people
who are opposed to its adoption seem
il OBJ eopposed to it chiefly because
they are opposed to 1t. Among the
criticisms cited there are some well
taken, but, on the other hand, the
critical person could find fault with
any charter Indeed, more flaws of
! importance could be picked with the
present charter than with the new
one, to say nothing about the benefits
+ derived from the commif sion form of
government, which everyone seems
ready to acknowledge as an improve
ment on the present municipal meth
cd.
1t does not require broad-mlnd-
ed persons to pick flaws and find
fault with any proposition. The pub
| lie generally have clamored for a
commission form Of government, and
II is especially needful at this time,
owing to the great growth our city
has made.
An old story attributed to incoln
will illustrate the situation of the
fault finders in this campaign.
In the days OF the Civil War the
White House was invaded every day
or so by loud and boastful takers
with all sorts of end-the-war-quick
schemes. To them President Lincoln
used to tell a story about a steam
boat on the Mississippi river that
had such a big whistle and small boil.
er that the boat stopped every time
the whistle blew. AS the pilot liked
to hear the sound of the whistle ev,
cry few minutes, the boat didn't make
much headway.
] After telling this story Mr.. Lin.
coin would say. Now. gentlemen
my idea of the best way to end the
war Is to have a bigger boiler and 8
smaller whistle"
Salem's greatest nee dat present
seems to be a bigger boiler and {
smaller whistle.
What has been sal dabout arbitrary
practices under the new charter Is
just as true of the present charter
and means nothing. unles sit is t
throw dust in the peoples eyes, ant
possibly deceive them. In regard t
salaries, all that has been said abou
the salaries being too high, and b!
others about their being too low, Il
purely matter of personal iudgmen
There has been more than one may
or and possibly in Salem, who WORKED
for nothing, and proved to be an eX
pensive luxury. On the other hand
IL the right man could be found. h
would be cheap at salary of $40,
600 a year, so there is really moth
ing in this cry about salaries, eXcep
again 10 unsettle the minds of read
ers, Some men would be cheap a
any price, and the dearest of al
might prove to be the man VIII
worked for nothing.

TEACHERS
INSTITUTE
ADJOURNS


dresses by prominent educator and
general discussion of questions Of
Importance to the schools in general
the teachers assembled in an insti-
stute here for three days, adjourned
yesterday afternoon. Prior to ad-
journment resolutions praising State
Superintendent OF Public Instruction
Alderman and County School Super
intendent Smith, and indorsing the
recent legislation on education were
passed.
The resolutions were as follows:
BE 1t resolved by the teachers of
Marion county:
"First-That we pledge our most
hearty support to our worthy and
hardworking county superintendent
Mr., w. NJ. Smith, in all measures
that he may inaugurate for the ad-
vancement and good of the schools of
Marion county.
"Second-That we shall evince our
appreciation of the splendid talks
and helpful suggestions given us by
the men and women who have stood
before us in both the general and de-
partment sessions, by putting them
into practical use so far as we are
able
"Third-That we place ourselves
on record in hearty commendation of
the new course of study issued by
the state office,
Endorse New Law.
"Fourth-We heartily endorse the
action OF State Superintendent Alder
man in securing the enactment of
the new law of certifcatlon; also his
further efforts in securing the law
creating the office of county super
visor, wherein the standard of our
schools will be raised and the eff
cheney Of the teachers greatly in
creased.
''Fifth--In view of the fact that
the teachers are the ones who are
compelled to use the books chosen
by the State Textbook commission,
and are best able to judge the need
of the pupils and the fitness of GER
tain books to fulfill that need, we be-
lieve that a majority of the Textbook
commission should be teachers
"Sixth--Since 1t is a recognized
fact that progress and efficiency
along Industrial and professional
lines is commensurate with the skill
and specialized training employed,
and since only hope Of raising the
standard of the teachers profession
is through more adequate prepara-
ton and special training on the part
of the great majority of the teachers
now entering upon the work of school
teaching, be II resolved, that we en-
dorse most heartily the more ample
provision as provided by recentlegis-
lation for normal training of teach
ers, and that we respectfully urge
further legislation providing that af-
ter the year 1914, no teacher be per
mltted to teach in the state of Ore
gon who has not had at least nine
months of normal training, or equiv.
alent successful experience, to be de
termined by the proper authorities.
"Seventh-That we favor an estab
lished minimum salary of $50, anC
above this graduated scale, baset
upon successful experience, to be de
termined by the county superinten
dent, the school supervisors or the
principals association.
Further, That copies of these reso
lutions be sent to and published II
all the papers of the county.
