"A POLITICAL BULLETIN
Union Workers Urged to Try to Elect
Congressmen-Work of Democratic
House of Congress Was
Praised.

Washington, Sept lathe American
Federation of Labor has declared in ia
yor of the Democratic party and urges
the election of trade union men TO rep
resent its cause in the state and ma
tional legislatures. In this weeks issue
of its weekly news letter the Fedora
ton prints in parallel columns the
declarations of the Republican party,
the Democratic party. and the Progress.
sive party, so far as they refer to la
Dor legislation. The platform of the
Socialist platform is not included.
Candidates and parties" says the
news letter, "are to be judged by their
actions In preference to their declara-
tions. OF the Republican party, so long
as il has had entire control of the legis-
lation and the administration it was inn
possible to get from it any eonsidera-
ton, much less action on any funda
mental questions affecting the rights, in
terests of, and the justice due to the
toilers of our country, as evidenced by
the deaf ear turned toward the toilers
by Congress when the bill of grievances
and protest was presented to the presi-
dent of the United States, Mr., Roosevelt
and the president pro. tenn. of the Sem
ate, Mr.. Frye, and the speaker of the
House of Representatives, MIR. Cannon.
The official bulletin of the federation
then points out that the failure OF the
Republican party to give relief was the
cause for the American Federation of
Labor campaigns of zoos and 1910, re-
sulting, il is stated in the election of
fifteen trade union congressman, and the
defeat Of a number of congressman an
tagonistic to labor.
The bulletin points with pride to the
achievements of the Congress just ad-
iourned, so far as they affect labor, par
ticularly the achievements Of the Demo
cratic House. One page is devoted to
biographies of the trade union con-
ressmen. including Representative Ber-
ger. the Socialist.
The bulletin publishes letter from
Chairman Henry of the House rules
committee in which he promises that
early in December Of the next session
of this Congress, the Dillingham; immi-
grafton bill will he brought by rule be-
fore the House of Representatives in
order that 1t may be duly considered.

strength to the community that pays
for it. The feeling exists that secondary
rural schools have in many instances
weakened the communities which sup
ported them; that by the very efficien-
CIV of their work, they have trained
youn men and woman for other fields
of usefulness and have thus frequently
deprived the community of the services
of its best citizens. 1t is said that New
Hampshire has been a notable sufferer
from this process, and that readjustment
is necessary if the process is to be
checked and the upbuilding of the coun-
try districts is to go on again. All over
the country there is the same problem.
1t seems obvious that if the public high
school is to justify itself it must con-
stantly put back into the community
the best of each generation as perma-I
nent residents.
Particularly important is the part toI
be played by the reconstructed rural
high school in the country life movement
The Colebrook academy dignifies the
fundamental arts of agriculture and
home making. Given schools of this
type, with a program of studies match
ing the real interests of the community,
any rural civilization may in truth be
made as efficient and satisfying as other
civilization.

The Plan Outlined by Winston
Churchill
ENGLAND ITSELF DIVIDED
This to Enhance Power of Federal Par
iament--Greater London Would
Be One, Lancashire An
other.

London, Sept. 1.-the Unionist Morn
ing Post heads its report of Winston
Churchill's speech at Lickes, suburb
Of Dundee: Back to the Heptarchy, .
which may be taken as the keynote of
the opposition criticism. In this speech
Mr.. Churchill outlined a federal system
Of home rule for the United Kingdom,
which would involve the creation of ten
or twelve legislatures He said the gov
eminent intended Irish home rule as the
forerunner of genuine system Of self
government for all four countries.
During the course Of his speech Mr..
Churchill outlined system of fedora
ton for Great Britain. There would
be no difficulty, MIR. Churchill said, in
applying the self.government system to
Scotland and Wales as well as Ireland,
but in the case Of England there would
be a very real difficulty. England is
SO populous that an English Parliament.
whatever its functions and limitations
might be. must necessarily be almost
as powerful as an imperial Parliament
and quarrel between the English and
ltHptildI tthI tut
state in half Therefore in order to
establish workable federal system in
the country it would be necessary to d.
vide the country into several self gov
erning areas.
Mr. Churchill instanced Lancashire,
Yorkshire, the Midland counties and
greater London as areas which, owing
TO the density of population and local
conditions. could be regarded as destined
for separate legislatures. Notwithstand-
ing all criticisms and objections, Mr.
Churchill said he was not in the least
disturbed &C the prospect of seeing ten
or twelve separate legislative bodies dis
charging the functions entrusted to them
by the imperial Parliament and united
under the crown, He argued from the
examples of the United States, Germany,
Canada and Australia to show the i'm
mense advantages of such a system.
Suffragettes did their best to break
up the meeting. After many persons had
been elected. Mr.. Churchill said that the
political status of women would not be
won "by such uneivilized antics as have
just been witnessed"

New York, Sept. l4.--When Fl. R.

"There are plenty of girls who would
fill your description right in Minneapolis,
where you live. Just pluck up courage
enough TO go right up to them and tell
them that you want wife. But may
be that would be too abrupt. / did not
go about it in that way, because | did
not have pluck enough, and maybe you
haven't. But get around IL the best
you can and everything will come out

FIFTH OF EXCAVATION ON
CANAL DUE TO SLIDES
Have Amounted to Total of 1890, 900
Cubic Yards Since the Work
Began

Washington, Sept. l4.--Earth slides
in Culebra cut on the Panama canal
have amounted TO l6,500.00O cubic yards
since the excavation Of the cut began.
These slides represent not less than
twenty per cent. of the total amount of
earth and rock that so far has been
removed from the cut and would keep
the exeavating force at work at least
half a year. The engineers have found
no absolutely effective means to prevent
the slides. A process OF terracing the
banks has been found best. Excavating
on the canal during August amounted to
2,443, 1853 cubic yards, or l90,074 cubic
yards less than excavated in July. There
was one inch more of rainfall during
August, which helped to cause the re-
ducton. Concrete laying during Au-
gust amounted TO $3.50 cubic yards,
compared with s7,4s5 cubic yards in
July.

SPORTING NOTES.

Billy Murray, the Pirate scout, who
was formerly at the head of the Phil
adelphia Nationals, considers that Iris
Speaker is better all-round ball play
er than Ty Cobb.
1t is expected that Harry David will
be with Connie Mack next year in some
capacity. Davis will probably quit the
Cleveland club after the close Of its sea
son and may act as scout for Mack.
Meanwhile, the youthful shortstop the
Boston Nationals have been trying out
lately, has come up to the expectations
of the Beantown baseball lovers. He is
small of stature, but has a great store
of playing ability.
Bedent, the Boston Red Sox pitcher,
has been making great record this
year. Bedient is now one of the most
dependable pitchers on the staff.
The arrangements of both the Boston
Red Sox and the New York Giants have
received hundreds of requests from va
rious people for reservations for the
worlds series.
The Cubs are In the rut. Several
weeks ago there was a possibility of
the Chicago team leading the National
league race. For about three weeks the
club has been dropping game after game
to weak teams and unless they brace the
Pittsburg contingent will have nosed its
way into second place.
0utfelders Lee and Callahan of the
Elmira club are soon TO report to the
Brooklyn club at once Both of these
fielders have been tempted with big
league offers.
Tn a review of the past season of the
Twin State league the Bellows Falls
Times has the following summary of its
failure TO produce winning aggrega-
ton: "The first lap of the season was
bitter disappointment and this was
due to the action of the directors in
attempting to keep within the salary
limit. Other teams viewed the salary
limit as dead letter and strengthened
their teams by jumping to the limit.
Then came the special mass meeting and
from that time il was different brand
Vt ball given at the park The selec
tion OF the manager was not of the best,
in short, Manager Ready was another
disappointment
Wiltse and Meyers have the best bat
ting average Of any battery in the ma
Tor leagues. Meyers is consistent hit
ter and has been near the head of the
Giants batting list all year. while Wiltse
is occasionally called to the plate on
account OF his ability with the will

THE HIGH SCHOOL
AND THE COMMUNITY
How Can the Farmer Best Meet The
Needs of the Latter.-Colebrook
N. HIS Experiment Discussed.

How can the high school best meet the
needs of the community? The people
of Colebrook, New Hampshire, think
they have solved the problem. Their
experiment is interestingly described in a
bulletin just issued for free distribu-
ton by the United States bureau of
education.
Colebrook academy is located in
town Of about 1000 population in north
ern New Hampshire. Starting in the
first third Of the century as a private
school, it later became part of the pub
| lie system of education. For years it
has successfully done the work expect
ed of high school in the traditional
branches of the New England school.
Now it is trying to do something more.
Without lowering its standards, with
out ceasing to furnish the training neces-
sary for those going into the profess
sions, il is endeavoring to provide an
adequate education for the great mass
of boys and girls who ought to remain
and grow up with the country. 1t is
seeking. in other words, to readjust it.
self to the needs of the particular com
mtnity in which it is. just what this
readiustment means may be seen from
the following four significant additions
TO the school plants the greenhouse, the
dairy laboratory, the domestic arts de-
partment, and the workshop, including
carpenter and blacksmith shop. Com
plete courses are given in agriculture
and domestic science. Colebrook is the
center of a rural district and these are
the vital interests Of large part of
the population.
Colebrook academy does not propose to
become vocational school, 1t remains
a general high school The courses in
agriculture and domestic science exist
side by side with thorough courses in
the traditional high school subjects, as
we'll as the commercial branches. Its
purpose is not primarily to make good
farmers, or skilled mechanics, or pro-
fessional housekeepers, says Hon. II.
G. Morrison, state superintendent Of New
Hampshire. "The primary object is the
education of the boy and girl to become
sincere and efficient and happy man
and woman capable of becoming an
educated worker with material things, |
capable of getting life's happiness out |
of work rather than out of the leisure |
which comes after work, if indeed it |
comes at all. A further purpose is |
to educate the strongest youth toward |
the farm and the industries instead of |
toward the professions and business ex-
ly." In the work of the school il is |
repeatedly emphasized that the new
courses are established in the belief that |
there is just as truly a cultural de-
velopment OF the individual to be had |
from competent instruction in agricul.
ture or domestic science as from COM
petent instruction in Latin.
The significance of the Colebrook
lies in the fact that it demon
strates the basis principle upon which the
American high school must stand or
fall; that it shall be direct source of
