During the past few days there
has been a considerable amount
of refriction and dissatisfaction
among tho teachers and higher
grades of tho High School, which
caused a good deal of talk. This
was brought about when it was
discovered that only three of the
class of ten or more would COM
plete their school work and gra-
duats at this term when at least
ten expected to complete their
studies and receive their diplo-
mas. Miss Johnston, assistant
principal, we learn. had given the
pupils passing marks in English,
the class in which Prof. Fontenot
claim they were deficient. which
was the cause of tho whole trou-
bic.
Many people took an interest in
tho matter upon the reports which
were more or less exaggerated, We
presume.
Prof. Fontenot, however, issued
q circular letter giving his side of
tho controversy and stating that
he now doubts that the three can
pass, whose averages for eight
months sre above ninety.
He gives notice that all students
who wish graduation or promotion
or who wish to be recorded as ha-
wing passed certain subjects,
should take the final examinations,
which will be given the last or
next to the last week of tho ses-
sion.

A large number of our people
went to Breaux Bridge to see the
races last Sunday, there WAS al
immense crowd on the ground, but
the disappointment of many Was
even bigger than the crowd. Tho
first race at about half past two,
came of one hour later than the
program, the second race came off
little after six, after half of the
people were gone and the third
race came off between six and sev-
on o'clock. People who go to a
race track go there TO see some
races, and not to kill away time
waiting for races to take place at
such long intervals.

&he New senator From ONO.

Lieutenant Governor-Elect Atlee
Pomerene of Canton, Ohio. who has
been nominated by the democrats TO
succeed Senator Charles Dick. is
junior member of the law firm of
Shields & Pomerene. He is a native
Of Ohio and is "a years old. He was
an honor man in the class of 81 at
Princeton university. read law with
General Durbin Ward in Cincinnati
and was admitted TO the bar in 1885.
He has held the Offices of city So
licitor and prosecuting attorney. and
was the most formidable rival of
Harmon for the gubernatorial nom
nation.
AS the Ohio legislature is demo-
cratic. his election seems assured.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1911-01-06

Governor Harmon Of Ohio are prom
inentIy named.
Governor Dix of New York is also
considered and il is likely that
Champ Clark will be on the list be-
fore the national convention meets.
Mayor Gaynor has apparently re-
covered fully from the wound infiict-
ed by a half demented assassin in
August last. and is performing his
duties with as much vigor as ever.
Governor Wilson is a native OF
Virginia and lived in the south until
approaching middle age. His nom
ination would unquestionably be
hailed with satisfaction in that sec
ton of the union. He was until re-
Gently of Princeton university and
his large majority for governor of
New Jersey proves that he is popular
also in the north. Governor Har-
mon of Ohio is 81 years old and
should he be elected president, he
would take the oath of office at 81.
Governor Dix of New York is about
so years of age, a business man of
ability, good judgment and broad
mind. It may be needless to say
that his course as governor will in
dictate his political future.

Meeting the Future.

While the people of Pasadena,
Cal, were pelting each other with
roses at their annual festival, the
blizzard was pelting the people of
Nebraska and Wyoming and tearing
eastward with the speed of a railroad
train.
This is one Of the little things
that show what a really big country
this is.
Time was when it took a good
stretch OF Imagination to realize the
real difference in climate and loca-
ton of the different commemorative
Of the Union. but it is so easy now
that any child understands that he
may stand in a binding snowstorm
talking into telephone to some one
at the other end of the wire who is
wearing a panama hat and using a
palm leaf fan.
1t is the coming of the railroads
and electricity that have brought
about the wonderful welding and
amalgamation of the different people
OF the United States until none are
strangers to each other in customs.
and manners are so adjusted that
sectional lines are lost sight of.
1t is at the beginning of the new
year that the people of the United
States have especial reason to be
thankful for this feeling of frater-
nifty and cooperation which is MAX
ing of us all. not Illinoisans, nor
New Workers nor Californians, but
Americans, with one country, one
language and one common hope.
With the great strides of inven-
ton and achievement have come. also
some things that have helped TO
brighten the picture OF prosperity.
but on the whoe, with all the humil-
bot on the whole, with all the humil-
iating revelations of graft in politics
and corruption in business affairs it
may be said confidently that the
trend has been generally and stead
lily upward. and the people as A rule
are interesting themselves more gen
orally than ever in the questions of
good government and honest bust
ness methods. Education Is farther
advanced and more generally appre-
ciated than ever before Philan-
thropy is reaching out its hands to
help the helpless. Nations are gen
orally at peace and cooperating more
willingly and effectually than ever
in promoting the arts of peace. Not
only are all the different parts of
our nation brought into closer com
munication. but the nations of the
world coming into the same close rela-
tons.
At the outset of the year 1911 the
prospect is full of hope. There are
really no clouds in the sky. From
the blizzardswept plains of the mid
die west, the rose gardens of Califor-
mia and the palm groves of Florida
there come over the wire faster than
ever a blizzard blew. an assurance
that the American people are begin
ming a new year with confidence and
courage.
The best way to insure the results
or what they ought TO be is 10
preach and practice optimism. Let
everybody look on the bright side.
believe in his fellow man as well as
himself: trust in God and keep NOV
ing from now right on until the first
day of 1912. A people with this
kind of courage and optimism need
not fear for war, pestilence, famine
nor financial panic.
