The people are just beginning to
comprehend the real meaning Of an
education. They see that all classes
and all ages are to be helped and
broadened in their individual lives. 1t
is this idea that prompts the school
boards in an increasing measure,
throughout the country, to consent to
the use Of the school buildings to any.
thing that makes for the uplift and
improvement Of the community. The
truth is that We are just finding our.
selves as a people. Our schoolhouses
are from this time on to be used by
the children during the hours of the
day and during the evening hours they
are to be social centers where men
and women can gather and discuss all
that has to do with the domestic, so,
cial and political life of the nation
and the community. 1t will inevitably
mean that there will be strenuous So
cial awakening and that the spirit and
the mind of the people will be i'm
mensely broadened and stimulated to
high endeavor.

TROUBLE IN CUBA AGAIN.

There are ructions again in the self
government kindergarten which Uncle
Samuel has been maintaining in Cuba
The old gentleman has had to come in
with the ruler, and suggest that the
privilege Of naming their own teacher
may be removed from these political
infants, unless they mind their books.
One great trouble is that the num-
Der of ex-generals of the army of indie.
pendence far exceeds the number of
offices available for distribution.
This, however, tends to create senti-
ment against annexation to the Unit
ed States, which is favored by few ex-
cept the foreign residents and Ameri.
can property interests. The Cuban
leaders realize perfectly that If at.
tached to the United States, the high
salaried Offices would nearly all go to
the Americans. This of course would
be shocking blow to the principles
OF liberty.
mental. When an American is re,
moved from Office or is beaten at cleo,
ton, he either quits politics and goes
to work for his living, or he proceeds
to build his fences higher and tighter
He prepares himself better for the
high art Of craftsmanship by more de-
voted attendance at picnics and clam
bakes.
The Cuban, on the contrary, under
such conditions sits up later at the
wineshop, he drinks deeper, he accum
ulates guns in cellars, and in low tones
on shady corners he and other dark
faced patriots arrange the details OF
revolutions which may or may not see
the light Of day.
or course it would be too much tc
expect that the reform by hurricane
which the alert mind of Leonard Wood
applied to Cuban life could begin tc
remove all the real evils from which
Cuba still suffers. The trouble is not
that Cuba has been forbidden to en-
gage in the South American sport OF
| revolution, nor that she has been told
that she must acquire the un.Latin ha
bit OF paying debts. Her European
market for her industries was princi
pally destroyed by the war with Spain
The twenty per cent reduction in the
American tariff made for her benefit
did not wholly restore prosperity. We
have put a mans clothes of self gov
eminent on a small boy, and it will
take a number of years for him to
grow up to them.

AMERICAN LAWLESSNESS.

ri declare to you tonight that We
lawless of any OF the great civilized
nations"
The foregoing statement. made by
Senator Borah of Idaho in speech re
Gently given, has been widely quoted
From the boy who regards the fruit
trees Of the neighborhood as his pri
vate property, up to the corporation
magnate who considers councillors an(
legislators salable to the highest bid
der, Mr. Borah can no doubt find al
ominous array of facts to support his
claim.
Too often, however, the man who
denounces corporation lawlessness
will himself go hunting and fishing OF
land posted with No Trespass signs
If he had high powered automobile
he would be the first to drive the ma
chine forty miles an hour through {
city street.
1t seems to be hard for most people
to realize that in a republic we are al
partners in joint stock company. The
most valuable asset in the possession
of that company is the willingness o.
the partners to play square with eacf
other, for each one to be content with
the same privileges that he is willing
to give to every other partner. Every
time one of us breaks a little law
therefore, he encourages some of his
partners to break big law.

We are so apt to think that America

crowned a new king recently. It is a
despotism in its government but the
last king was a very wise, helpful
monarch and exceedingly benevolent

land, promises to continue the same
kind Of a government. Siam has a
system OF free public schools, inaug
urated by the late sovereign, and Eng

is Roosevelt candidate!
Recent political events have not
tended to clear up the mystery OF the
attitude of the ex-president, unless
they tend further to confirm the belief
that he will be a candidate. Certainly
nothing has happened to add emphasis
to the report that the colonel is unwill-
ing.
The ex-presidents name was put on
the Nebraska primary ballot after a
letter had been written to him with re-
gard to the matter and he has taken
no steps to have the name withdrawn.
The same is true of New Jersey and
some other states.

Andrew ID. White, the American

people, will not respect the right OF a

all that It stands for, il it wants tc

Meanwhile the colonel has said that

no steps whatever to put a quietus on
