GOING AWAY TO SCHOOL.

1t is perfectly surprising, in look
ing through the magazines and news
papers, to see the number of private
schools and academies below the col
lege grade, that are advertising for
students.
There is a large increase in the
number of families that do not seem
to be satisfied with the education
given by the home schools. 1t places
a heavy burden on the family anx-
ious to give its young people a good
start in life, if not only the cost of
a college education, and possibly of
a special post graduate school, must
be paid, but also a bill for two to
four years schooling at some college
preparatory institution.
The young people whost fortunate
position permits them to attend some
of the fine fitting schools gain great
start for life's race. Very likely they
get better attention than the crowd
ed public school could give. Their
rough excrescences of manner are
rubbed off
The remark was recently made by
a professor in leading eastern col
lege, however, that the private school
boys stand best when they enter the
college, but the public high school
boys come out ahead when they grad
uate.
His idea was that the private
schools boys had so much done for
them that they lost initiative and
determination. Wherefore let the
boy who must get his fit in the high
school of his own town or county not
feel that he has no chance. He is
left more to himself than the care
fully watched private school boy, but
he may thereby learn to struggle all
the better.

TELEPHONE 80
THE TELEPHONE TRANSFER.

1t is reported that the Home Tele-
phone Company has purchased the
Ashland telephone plant from the
Pacific company and will take it over
at once. This will obviate the in
convenience to the citizens of dual
telephone system and in that respect
is a good thing.
But, if the Home Telephone Com
pany is allowed to operate under the
franchise granted by the people in
1910, instead of the Pacific fran
chise granted in 1907, the city and
citizens will get the worst end of
the bargain. A comparison of the
two franchises shows:
The Home franchise is for pa
years, while the Pacific was for bur
ten.
Under the old franchise the city
had the right to regulate service
charges, while under the new fixed
rate for business service is SO per
month with the right to increase the
rate to $3.50 as soon as its service
reaches one thousand phones, the so
cents increase applying to all con-
nections.
Under the old franchise the COM
pany could be forced to place their
wire underground when the city re-
Quired it. No such right is reserved
to the city under the new Home fran
chise. Nor can the city have free use
of Home conduits for fire alarm sys-
TEN.
Under the old franchise the COM
pany was compelled to replace and
protect sewer, water and gas pipes
when they construct their lines. The
new Home franchise has no such pro-
vision.
However, the old franchise pro
vided but four free phones for city
use, while the new one provides fol
ten.
The old Pacific franchise is vastl,
more favorable to the city than tn,
Home franchise and, if it is possible
the city should insist on the new op
Grafton continuing under the pro
vision of the old franchise.

be secured by insistence upon ma
tional rights, then we are for ma
tional rights. Interstate commerce
can be effectively controlled only by
the nation. The states cannot con-
troll it under the constitution, and to
amend the constitution by giving
them control of it would amount to
a dissolution of the government The
worst of the big trusts have always
endeavored to keep alive the feeling
in favor of having the states them
selves, and not the nation, attempt
to do this work, because they know
that in the long run such effort
would be ineffective. There is no
surer way to prevent all successful
effort to deal with the trusts than to
insist that they be dealt with by the
states rather than by the nation, or
to create a conflict between the
states and the nation on the subject.
The well-meaning ignorant man who
advances such a proposition does as
much damage as if he were hired by
the trusts themselves, for he is play
ing the game of every big crooked
corporation in the country. The only
effective way in which to regulate
the trusts is through the exercise of
the collective power of our people as
a whole through the governmental
agencies established by the constitu-
tion for this very purpose. Grave
injustice is done by the congress
when it fails to give the national
government complete power in this
matter. and still grayer Injustice by
the federal courts when they en-
deavor in any way to pare down the
right of the people collectively to act
in this matter as they deem wise;
such conduct does itself tend to cause
the creation of a twilight zone in
which neither the nation nor the
states have power. Fortunately, the
federal courts have more and more
of recent years tended to adopt the
true doctrine, which is that all these
matters are to be settled by the peo-
I pie themselves, and that the con-
science of the people, and not the
preferences of any servants of the
people, is to be the standard in decid-
ing what action shall be taken by the
people. AS Lincoln phrased it:
The (question) of national power
and state rights as a principle is no
other than the principle of generality
and locality. Whatever concerns the
whole should be contided to the
whole-to the general government;
while whatever concerns only the
state should be left exclusively to the
state"

CAMPAIGN FUNDS.

In the old days money spent on
elections was just like coin dropped
into the sea. 1t disappeared into the
silent depths of politics, and few
thought of asking where or whence.
Today the tracks of the campaign
spender are not easily obliterated.
One day some fellow who did not get
all he wanted of it will tell tales, and
the rumors of full barrels are not
easily concealed. Congress has been
ringing with charges and counter
charges, and things that formerly
were hidden are being proclaimed
from the housetops
Under the old convention system
of nomination, a candidate made his
deals with leaders and committee
men and bosses, and there were linn
its to the consideration they dared
ask. Whether you like primary cleo
tions or not, as so far conducted it
does cost a big sum of money to
present a candidacy to the voters,
even if no money is spent corruptly.
How shall it be arranged so that
a poor man, minus wealthy hackers,
can run for office? There is no big
ger question.
Some blame the newspapers, charg-
ing that the recent custom of insert
ing campaign advertisements has
enormously increased the candidate S
bills.
1t can be said for campaign adver-
tising that it is the most logical form
of expenditure. The money spent
through heelers largely sticks in
their dirty pockets. The money spent
through the newspapers buys good
white space, and the same results
can be had as are secured by mer-
chants through their advertising.
The campaign advertisement appeals
to people in leisure moments, and is
most effective when it consists of
carefully stated facts and arguments.
Getting out the vote" is the one
largest expense. The voter ought to
get out without having to be sent
for.

A TIMELY FEDERAL LAW.

When the federal law prohibiting
the transportation of motion picture
fight films goes into effect there will
be much rejoicing among the people
who believe that prize fighting is
anything but credit to the nation.
For the action on the part of the
national government will mean big
blow at the enormous profits the
game has paid in recent years, and
will consequently be a decided blow
to the fight promoters, who are, of
course, in the business for the money
they can make.
1t seems to us unquestionably true
that some such action should be TAX
en- by the federal government. For,
without consideration of the moral
issue regarding prize fighting, no one
will question that some sort of &C
tion is needed to put a stop to hun
dreds of alleged fights, as we'll as
wrestling matches, staged through
out the United States each year.
When Barnum made his famous
statement about the American people
liking to be swindled he probably did
not have either the prize fight or
the wrestling game in mind, but in
recent years the statement could be
no more fittingly applied than to
these two more or less questionable
sports.
We believe it is unquestionably
true that hundreds, if not thousands,
of supposed fights and wrestling
matches are staged every year,
which are framed up" from start to
finish. More especially in the fights
than in the wrestling game, the mo-
ton pictures are a big feature. Time
after time these supposed fights are
prolonged indefinitely as mere exhi-
bition sparring matches to make the
pictures good"
Kill the value of fight pictures
and if there is any excuse for prize
fighting it will once more be put
back where that part of the public
who wish to witness such contests
may be reasonably assured that they
are to see a real exhibition and not
a bit of nice posing for the benefit
of the motion picture men. There
fore the new law should be well
coined as much by those who support
the fight game as by those who
would like to see it entirely de-
stroyed.

nope that our people will gain respect

hope that our people will gain respect
for it.
In conclusion, there is presented
as the solution of the difficulties of
the present industrial situation, con-
centration, cooperation, and control.
Through concentration we may have
the economic advantages coming
from magnitude of operations.
Through cooperation we may limit
the wastes of the competitive sys-
tenn. Through control by commits
sion we may secure freedom for fair
competition, elimination of unfair
practices, conservation of our natural
resources, fair wages, good social
conditions and reasonable prices.
Concentration and cooperation
in industry in order to secure eff
cheney are worldwide movement.
Ihe United States cannot resist it,
II we isolate ourselves and insist up
on the subdivision of industry below
the highest economic efficiency, and
do not allow cooperation, we shall
be defeated in the worlds markets
We cannot adopt an economic system
less efficient than our great competi-
tors, Germany, England, France and
Austria. Either we must modify our
present obsolete laws regarding con-
centration and cooperation so as to
conform with the world movement,
or else fall behind in the race for the
worlds markets. Concentration and
cooperation are conditions impera-
lively essential for industrial ad-
vance; but if we allow concentration
and cooperation there must be con-
troll in order to protect the people,
and adequate control is only possible
through the administrative commits
sion. Hence concentration, co-opera-
ton and control are the key words
for scientific solution of the mighty
industrial problem which now con-
fronts this nation"
Democrats Offer No Remedy.
In his main thesis President Van
Hise is unquestionably right. The
democratic platform offers nothing
in the way of remedy for present in
dustrial conditions except, first, the
enforcement of the antitrust law in
fashion which, if words mean any
thing, means bringing business to a
SIdnuSIlll, dHu, SeCOnu, the lnSlSt-
ence upon an archaic construction of
the states rights doctrine in thus
dealing with interstate commerce
an insistence which, in the first
place, is the most flagrant possible
violation of the constitution to which
the members of the Baltimore con-
vention assert their devotion, and
which, in the next place, nullifies
and makes an empty pretense of
their first statement. The proposals
of the platform are so conflicting and
so absurd that it is hard to imagine
how any attempt could be made in
good faith to carry them out; but,
if such attempt were sincerely made,
| it could only produce industrial
chaos. Were such an attempt made,
every man who acts honestly would
have something to fear, and yet no
great adroit criminal able to COM
mand the advice of the best corpora
tion lawyers would have much to
| fear
What is needed is action directly
the reverse of that thus confusedly
indicated. We progressives stand for
the rights of the people When these
rights can best be secured by insist
ence upon states rights, then we are
for states rights; when they can best
