MEWARK,S NEW HIGH SCHOOL.

NM EWARK may well take pride in the noble educational insti-
Am tuition dedicated today, for it would be a credit to any city
in the world. 1t represents the latest and best of public
educational ideals and methods and it stands for the future of
common school education in Newark and New Jersey. The new
Commercial and Manual Training High School has been of slow
development. 1t has been delayed by many obstacles. But it is
here and it is about to begin an educational work of the highest
value to the Newark community. The reproach has been made
that Newark was deficient in her high school facilities. We are
removing that reproach now. When the proposed South Side High
School is completed there will be four welequipped schools with
accommodations equal to those of the most advanced cities.

Wilson and inconsistency.

Wilson and Inconsistency.
To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
Some men are born great; others
achieve greatness. and others have
greatness thrust upon them"
This saying strongly suggests the
sudden ascension of Governor Wilson
from political obscurity into political
prominence, for the gratuitous endow-
ment Of unearned greatness certainly
made Professor Wilson Governor OF
New Jersey.
Yet, while practically unknown be-
fore his nomination, and having
achieved nothing before or since. Gov
ernor Wilson rapidly became a presi-
Dental aspirant. thereby presenting q
remarkable illustration of spontaneous
expansion by self-infation.
His excellency, to be sure, assumes
reform pretensions of a superficial
character. but superficial changes arc

point Of q college professor, and his
status In that capacity presents a
character which, however charitably
considered. is amply sufficient to com,

but reform issued therefrom only In
the person of the reformer, who

gates Of an American college, expelled
from a professionally for teaching his
pupils the true principles of political
economy; and his name was not Wood

Political economy-a study teaching

conflicting interests; and, consequently.
we have two doctrines of political
economy. the plutocratic. Or rich mans

American plutocrats pay millions of
dollars toward the establishment and
support OF American colleges.
Holding h professorship Of political
economy at Princeton, Governor VIII
son for twenty years taught the pluto

the ~undeniable products of which are
plutocracy and poverty. presenting a
political paradox that is the acme of
political absurdities.
Therefore. II Governor Wilson be-

and vapid personal record for a presi-

TAFT IN COLUMBUS.

TN RESIDENT TAFT said in his Columbus speech last night
that he believed the Republican party would win in No
yember on the record of his administration. In regard to
the tariff only the Democrats and insurgents had been heard by the
country. The real Republican party will be heard next. 1t is
evident that Mr.. Taft miscalculates the number of the insurgents
as he did in 1910. The complacency with which he read the insur-
gent Republican senators out of the party that year seems to have
returned to him now. Or is the Columbus speech only the whis-
Ting of the boy in the woods?

The music department of the State
Federation of Women's Clubs held a
meeting yesterday morning at the
Newark Public Library, Miss Alice
Lakey, chairman. presiding. The object
of the meeting was for the discussion
of plans as to the feasibility of forming
a State choral union under the auspices
of the federation. and also to hold a
summer and winter musical festival.
similar to the "Eisteddfod" held by the
| Welsh people. The union will not be
confined to clubwomen alone. All
musical clubs and glee clubs. and
especially the children who have
voices, will be eligible and most sought
after, for 1t is in the children that we
have the singers of the future. Prof.
Tall Esen Morgan, who has organized
choral unions throughout the United
States, gave a talk on choral work, and
also brought before his audience the
fact that not only would n be able
to earn to sing through the chorus
work, but would also be taught the
grammar of music, of which so very
few singers are familiar. Prof. Tall
Essen Morgan stated that most singers
could not pass a kindergarten exami-
nation in music, because their teachers
do not take the trouble to give them
any study in music, but simply tell
them they will be great singers some

becomes we'll satisfied and does not
consider the study of music necessary.
ANY person who can sing the scale of
G and sing it in tune will be accepted
as a worker. and the federation does
not look for its workers among the
upper classes altogether. A State
director will be appointed, who will
supervise all choral work. There will
also be subAdirectors. who will have
charge of the work in certain districts,
and at stated times, when preparing
for a festival, the entire chorus Will
meet under the leadership of the State
director. To show the interest already
taken in the movement, twenty-one
different clubs we're represented at the
meeting, acting as delegates from glee,
musicaL and women's clubs from the
suburban towns of Newark. The New
Jersey Federation of Women's Clubs
has a membership of $4,000, and, with
the unanimous expression at the meet
ing of yesterday in favor of the organi-
cation of a State choral union. Mr.
Morgan states that there is no question
about its success.

many teachers in the State are in
terested.
The hearing was on a motion to
dissolve the mandatory injunction
to compel County Supt. G.. NJ. Mon
ey, of Shelby county, to renew the
teachers certificate of Miss Rosa
Randolph. Chief Justice Hobson
and Judges Lassing, Settle and Car
roll sat in the case. The motion
was argued by Assistant Attorney
General M. NJ. Logan, and Miss
Randolph was represented by At
torney L. C. Willis and County
Judge Gilbert, of Shelby.
The issue involves construc-
ton of the law. The County Su-
perintendent insisted that before
Miss Randolph could be entitled to
a renewal certificate she must have
taught eight consecutive years on
original certificates Miss Ran
dolph's certificate was renewed for
four years in 1904. In 1908 she
took an examination and secured
certificate for four years. She con-
tended that this entities her TO the
renewal. The court sustained the
injunction, thus unfolding Miss
Bandolph's contention.
