CRUSHING A MONOPOLY

Probably Alaska has the only rail- road company in the world that ever crushed monopoly or presented town with a free water system. The Chitina Leader tells the story:
 Again the railroad company through the prompt action of it's efficient em ployees has come to the assistance of Chitna. Until recently the principal water supply has come from large spring of excellent water that comes from the east slope into the stream which runs through the townsite. The public had patronized this spring pretty freely until one morning last week placard advertising the public that the tract was private property, and that water might be had at the rate of ten cents pail or three for quarter. A flood of indignation swept the town and especially were the "Heights' in censed at the arbitrary action of the owners MT. and Mrs. Newhouse as they depended entirely upon this spring for water for domestic purposes. The at tention of MT. Forester, the company $ engineer, was called to the matter and he immediately set to work a gang of men to dig a well. The Newhouses thereupon threatened to buy the ground upon which the well was located, but the engineer was not to be caught nap ping. He had dug the we'll in the mid dle of the street and informed the pur- veyors of water that the well was to be public and free to all When all efforts to stop the digging had failed Mir. Newhouse rescinded the order and offered to permit the free use of his spring again, but the digging went on to completion and ar inexhaustible sup ply of the best water was struck at a depth of sixteen feet. The we'll was at once curbed and house will be built over it for protection during tie winter. It is to be regretted that any clGlzen or Chltlna should pc So short sighted as to try to corner the water supply of the town while a never-fail- ing, sparkling stream runs through the townsite, and every surrounding hill holds reservoir. The cost of living is high enough in Alaska without hay ing to buy water. It is believed the difficulty is settled for the present.

modern society is the rising tide of
enthusiasm for education. The close
observer in his travels cannot fail to
be profoundly impressed with the uni
versal interest. In every class of So
ciety he will find embedded the belief
that 1t is of the highest value. All
believe in it, and all are willing that
it shall be supported. One pursues it
because he unites II inseperably with
any considerable success in life, or
because his desire for place is so con-
trolling an ambition that he sees an
education necessary to meet the re-
quirements Of the position to which he
aspires.
Others believe that education leads
to master over poverty, and many of
the unpleasant features of life. Some
regard it as a means of escape from
the drudgery Of life; others are lured
in by the hope of a richer and fuller
life to which it invites. The culture
1t brings, the power it develops and
the growth it insures. all unite to
make the picture attractive.
From one cause of another, all peo
pie, of all classes, from all motives,
unite in the support of education.
The Growth of the Sentiment.
AS we trace the development of the
interest in education, we cannot fail
to notice the increasing place that
public education occupies in our his
tory as a result of the active interest
and support of the state. The time
was when even an elementary educa-
ton was a private and family matter.
Higher education was the result Of
endowment by private benevolence, or
the privilege Of the few who were able
to pay we'll for instruction. It is the
memory OF many Of US when the pri-
al
privilege of the few. There was a
certain aristocracy that attached itself
to those who enjoyed the privilege of
the school.
The advent and development of the
free public school changed all this. and
gradually brought the advantages to
all. Special taxation, at first supple
mented by private subscription, grad
ually gave way to the free school In
the northwest territory the ordinance
of 1887 struck the keynote when it de-
clared: Religion. morality and edu-
cation being essential to good govern
ment. schools and the means of edu-
cation shall be forever encouraged .
No doubt we see larger things in this
utterance than the writer had in mind;
but il is worthy of note that so liberal
note should find expression in this
historic document. This doctrine was
supplemented by friendly legislation.
and in many parts of the new west
by large donations of public lands
The Land Grant Colleges.
The now historic and famous Mer-
rift act, passed in 1852, was the first
great attempt to put the nation back
of a movement for higher technical
education. AS the outgrowth of that
act, there has grown up a college in
every state in this union. Here, as
elsewhere the cauee ak education bad

and others saw a foolish attempt at
the impossible. Others saw in 1t a
great engine of mischief and corrup-
ton. However. in many of the states
this became the foundation for the
state university, as in Illinois Wiscon-
sin, Minnesota, Ohio and Florida 1
recognize the earlier foundations of
state Observation-Disclosures and Geor-
gia among the oldest in the south, and
Michigan and Indiana in the north;
but the great state university really
dates since the Merritt act.
The Expanding Theory of the State.
1t is worth while to recall that, as
late as 1870, Herbert Spencer put him
self on record in his Social States as
saying that the state had no more
right to administer education than to
administer religion" He regards tax
alton for either purpose as an in
fringement on the rights of the person
taxed. and therefore wrong. He argues
at length that the child has no right
to education, inasmuch as a neglect to
educate did not actually invade any
natural right with which the child was
born.
The modern theory of the child's
rights and of the state have moved
entirely away from this point of view.
state has some duties that pertain to
the general welfare-that the child is
born with some rights that the state
should conserve and develop.
The New Emphasis in Education.
Modern education as represented in
the public school an dthe state uni
versity has brought about a new en-
phasis in one thought. We now insist
that education shall prepare people to
live efficiently-shall develop initiative
power-and to master environment so
that we may live as free people ought
to live. The development of the mod
ern state university has been parallel
with the development Of science, both
pure and applied-the development Of
the elective principle in education and
the enormous expansion of the courses
of study and the facilities for educa-
ton. This has amounted to a prac-
teal revolution in American education.
The Value of the Classical.
We need not cast any aspersion upon
classical education in order to justify
the new emphasis. AS a matter of
fact, classical education stood the test
of preparing men to live and to live
efficiently. It produced a fine type of
man. and doubtless will continue to do
so when given a free opportunity.
On the other hand. the new world
developed new needs. The agricul-
tural. technical and professional edu-
cation, including education for teach
ing. were all the outgrowth Of these
new needs. The classical idea had
brought one Interpretation of life.
The new education brought another
supplementary, but not contradictory,
Interpretation.
Because modern science supple
mented the established work of cIas-
