TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES.

Mr.. Wells and E. j. Benson of Ell
derOn, the new member of the train
ing school board, visited the training
schools at Eau Claire and Menomonie
on Thursday and Friday of last week.
The Eau Claire training school has
building especially constructed for
its use. In addition to the usual as
sembly hall and class rooms it has a
fine well equipped auditorium or en-
tertainment room in the upper story,
and physical laboratories and gymna-
SUM in the basement. The faculty
consists of w. A. Clark, principal
and Frank A. Wilkins, Lydia l..
Wheelock, excellent teachers all
Practice teaching in the oldest school
house in the city was inspected with
interest and pleasure. The visitors
received a warm welcome and were
pleasantly entertained. Both city
and county may well be proud of
their school.
The Dunn County Training school
is only a week younger than the
Marathon County school. The build
ings were built upon the same plans.
There has been but one change of
principals there, and none of the first
assistant. In these positions there
has been no change here. The recep-
ton extended US was most cordial.
Principal Bowman introduced the
principal as bringing greetings from
the Oldest county training school in
the world to the second oldest, credit
ing him with being the oldest princi-
pal of such school. Mr.. Wells begged
to change the statement to the prin-
cipal of the oldest school, change
which appearances seemed to justify.
The Dunn county training school
has the largest enrolment of any in
the state, after selecting more criti-
cally than any other can. The facul-
ty consists of q. L. Bowman, Prin.
Elizabeth Allen, Nora hurley, Anal
r. Lennon. The tone and spirit of
the school is excellent.
Carpenters were at work remodel.
ing the third floor or ''garret," max
ing two large, comfortable, well
lighted rooms, and several smaller
ones. This was made possible through
the liberality of the county board in
making an appropriation of 81, S00-for
the purpose.
The visitors inspected the county
agricultural school, occupying as here
the first floor and basement. 1t has
an attendance of IS and seems to be
doing a work well worth while. The
dairy, with five grade COWS, the poul
try, the various activities we saw, and
the evident interest of the boys in
their work were most gratifying.
Inspection of the Stout Institute
and a pleasant visit with ex-State
Supt. Harvey, were pleasant incidents
of the day. AS guests of Prin. and
Mrs. Bowman at a supper given. by
the ladies of the Unitarian church in
Taintor Memorial building the yisi-
tors concluded day of unalloyed
pleasure. Especially pleasing at both
places were the greetings and remin-
iscences of colaborers in the work in
the days of long ago.

that the British government in 1880
would want to send troops across Mich
igan and Illinois TO the Mississippi in
q campaign against New Orleans. When
Washington sought the advice of his
Cabinet Adams opposed granting the
request, jefferson was inclined to favor
IL and Hamilton strongly favored 1t.
The matter at that time remained UNI
decided, since the request was not
made. In 1916 our treaty with New
Granada secured to us the right to
transport troops across the Isthmus Of
Panama. In 1862 the United states
government gave Great Britain permis-
sion 10 transport troops across the
state of Maine into Canada, Secretary
Seward arguing that the giving Of such
permission was customary act Of In
ternational comfy which should be per
formed whenever compatible with the
safety and welfare Of the country con-
cerned. In 1875 similar permission
was given to Canada to send across
American soil supplies for its mounted
police In 1876 the Mexican govern
ment was permitted to land at Brazos
Santiago, IN Texas, a body Of troops
destined for the defence Of Matamoros,
and again in 1885 and 1889 the same
courtesy was extended to our southern
neighbor.
The granting Of this permission TO
Mexico at this time is another mani
festation of the benevolent and sympa-
thetic spirit which the United States
has consistently shown toward that
country In It's troubles. II also adds 10
the weight Of obligation which already
rests upon Mexico TO keep her border
wars free from offence and Injury to
the United States and to resto peace
and tranquility to that disturbed re-
gloD at the earliest possible date.

PREPosTERoUs BALLOTS.

Warned by the experience OF last

He has been warned by the company

INDIFFERENT VICTIMS.

For voters who have been robbed
those Of the State Of Washington are
singularly Indifferent II WAS largely
upon the settlement of the Washington
contests by the Republican convention
at Chicago that the colonel declares he
was wrongfully deprived Of the Repub-
lican nomination for the Presidency
The delegates from that state were
among the 'irreducible minimum
which could not be taken from him
without fraud The most violent OF
the colonels epithets were employed
with regard 10 the seating Of the Taft
delegates from that state. Yet when
the Republicans of Washington had an
opportunity to show their indignation
at the Outrage" by going over to the
Progressive party they did not do It.
Only per cent OF them voted In the
recent Progressive primaries. The
other 95 per cent restrained their wrath
at the robbery and remained Repub-
licans This was a singular way for
men 10 behave who had been cheated
out Of their right Of representation in
their party convention.
But II is exactly the way the victims
of the Chicago crime elsewhere are
behaving OF course. Michigan was not
as bad as Washington. We can't recall
the exact Rooseveltian scale for these
offences. If Washington was highway
robbery Michigan was at least porch.
climbing or sneak-thievery. But the
Michigan victims took 1t calmly. They
participated in the affairs of the new
party in as small degree as the voters
IN Washington. The third party's
county convention in Detroit had TO be
postponed the other day because there
was not sufficient attendance 10 trans
act business. With regard to Nebraska
no crime was committed, but the Ne
hraskans must have heard of the rob
berry and the state might he expected

when an opportunity was given the
voters to enroll under the banner Of
Arma geddon the other day the enrol
ment was trihing.

he measured up 10 the standards IN
other respects, and that THE World"
would be bound by hts decision whether
II was free TO support the Democratic

apparently could not see that a little
man, the political creature Of Murphy,
the boss's personally selected chairman
Of the Democratic State Committee,
named for Governor in a convention alb
solutely controlled by the Tammany
boss. had been nominated by Murphy.
1.-The World supported this little man
and helped to make him Governor, as
suring the voters Of the state that MUIR

anyway, with little power even in his
own county.
When we think how our neighbor was
deceived two years ago we wonder how
it is going to be able TO tell this year
whether the ticket that will be named
at Syracuse is boss made or not. Never
was the boss's hand more visible than
II was at Rochester two years ago. Yet
The World could not see It. Let US
hope that its eyes will be sharper this
autumn.
