Pay the Teachers
Better Salaries.

Since the fight has been won for
uniformity of text books in Florida,
some we'll meaning people have ad-
Fvanced the idea for free books for the
schools, as is provided in some other
states of the south.
Free textbooks would be a good
thing for the state. The idea is a good
one, and would that the time were
here for a carrying out of the project,
but before the dessert is given the peo-
pie, they want something more sub
stantial.
What the school system of Florida
needs today is teachers that are paid
enough to make them take an interest
In their work. We need to pay them
salary that is better than the cook
receives, and one that is in keeping
with the dignity of the position.
No doubt some teachers are not
worth more than they are getting, but
this kind of teachers are the ones that
should not be trusted to train and
have charge Of the children at the ten
der age.
There are many good teachers ir
Florida, for which we are thankful, but
in a majority of cases they are under
paid and cannot be expected to con-
tinue, year after year, to work for 6
mere existence.
Some counties in the state have
solved the school problem and are fal
ahead of the other parts of the state

Champ Clark's
Little Game.

If Champ Clark was not born under
a lucky star" he seems to have de-
veloped lucky streak somewhere. He
is going to pull off little game in
Washington during the next few weeks
that will greatly aid the Democratic
party, and incidentally further the
Missourian'c boom for president.
We don't say that he is a grand
stand player-far from it-but every
move he makes seems to be just the
one the people want him to make, and
II he is not possessed of lucky streak
he is Of a keen insight of the desires OF
the people at large.
The insurgent Republicans talked of
tariff reform until 1t was painful to
themselves and their hearers when
they were running for office; when
they got to Washington they continued
to talk. President Taft took them at
their word and when the reciprocity
sion he called the extra one, and even
now it looks like the insurgent sena-
tors will crawfish if they can get an
opportunity to do so without running
themselves with their constituents.
They say that the reciprocity BILL
provided it passes, will be the only
tariff legislation considered by the SEN
ate at the extra session. 1t probably
will be, but here is where Champ Clark
comes in. He wants the senate to
either pass or refuse to pass the farm
ers' free list bill as passed by the
house
1t does not matter very much to him
which way they decide to vote, fol
what he wants is tariff reduction or t.
let the public know where it can get
tariff reduction.
Champ Clark is truly a man of the
common people. He has always been
He does not seem to be working fol
his own Qualification, but the people
realize that every time he does some
thing for them he is building a soliG
foundation for himself in the affections
of the people and his followers are in
! creasing in number.
The Democrats have no cause fol
/ regret in the selection of Champ Clarl
as leader in the lower house Of con-
| gress.

Their work is apparent in the faces of
the children and in a few years more
these counties will stand out as shining
lights in the state.
There are few questions as import
ant as the public school one. The
moral, mental and physical develop
ment Of the children Of our state de-
pend to a large extent upon the
teachers in the public schools.
1t is to be hoped that Escambia
county will soon take the lead in this
line, for no matter how much progress
is made along other lines a poor school
system will act as an anchor attached
to yacht in a race for a prize.

CONGRESS OF WORLD RACES
TO MEET SOON IN LONDON.
Suggestion For the Gathering Came
From America.

The central building of the Univer-
sity Of London will witness next July
(26-29) an interesting sight Represent
atives of all the races will meet there
to discuss how prejudices may be re-
moved and friendlier relations estab-
lished between the western nations and
other peoples of the earth.
Never before has meeting of this
kind taken place, and its promoters
hope that it will be only the first of
series of similar gatherings. The
first universal races congress will be
truly interracial, for India, China, ia
pan, Turkey, Persia and Egypt will be
represented by writers of their own
kith and kin, in addition to British
writers such as Sir Sydney Olivier,
Sir Charles Bruce and Sir Harry John
ston. The American contributors in
clude Professor Felix Adler, Professor
p. S. Reinsch, forthcoming Theodore
Roosevelt professor in Berlin; Profess
sor Franz Boas of Columbia university,
Professor w. Jett Lauck and Freder-
lex ~. CTOAlOn Oh tne UnlteQ states
immigration commission and Edwin d..
Mead of Boston.
Dr. Charles A. Eastman (Ohiyesa)
has prepared paper on "The Ameri-
can Indian" and DR.. w. f. b, Du Bois
on "The Negro In America" on which
subject the committee also expects a
paper from DR.. Booker Washington or
some one he will nominate. Other pa
pers bearing on the negro question will
be by General Legitime of Haiti and
DR.. Lacerda of Rio de Janeiro.
Among the honorable vice presidents
of the congress are Joseph H. Choate,
George B. Davis, John w. Griggs, Gen.
eral Horace Porter and Uriah NJ. Rose,
while among members of the general
committee are some 200 university pro-
fessors and other men of distinction.
Finally it should be mentioned that
! the idea of holding such a congress
emanated from the United States.
