the vocations for which they
were trained, and not in the
teaching of our youth. Aside
from the youth who attended the
various agricultural colleges and
technical schools, the great bulk
of young people of the United
States get very little in their
school days which is of direct
and helpful value to them in the
necessary work of making a
living.
Culture is all right and to be
encouraged in every way, but a
man must eat, and the funda-
mentals-of his training should
be along this line coupled with,
and followed by, cultural train
ing. There is just as much cul-
ture and refinement to be OBJ
tanned in the study of agricul-
ture or domestic science as there
is in the study of history or
Greek, while agriculture or do
mestic science have a direct prac-
tical value which does not come
from the study of the other sub
jects except in a limited way and
in particular vocations. History
teaches things as they. were, and
not as they are. We in the
present, and notSin the past.
Any training which is incOnsis-
tent with that which enables the
man to earn his daily bread and
butter is inconsistent with the
true object. of a school education,
and when we remember that only
about one student in three hun
dred ever goes to college, we
must see that our system of edu-
cation in the common school
which has the college as Its only
goal, is faulty, tOsay the least.
Baxter Springs news., 1912-10-03
Real Education.

Perhaps there is no question OF
more vital or general interest in
these later days than that Of ed.
ucation. The whole nation is
aroused on this subject, and eff
forts are being made in every
state and in most communities
to determine just what are its
essentials and wherein our pres
ent system fails of its greatest
usefulness. That the present
system does fail in many essen
tial particulars is very generally
admitted, as it apparently has
for its one object throughout the
entire school life Of the youth of
the country, a training for col
lege, and that alone, there has
grown up a great dissatisfaction
with our whole school system,
says Kansas Farmer.
An education has for its prime
object the teaching of the pupil
how to live. The first requis-
ties of this life are a place to
live, something to eat and some
thing to wear. We cannot get
away from this fundamental fact
any more than we can get away
from the. necessary preparation
for it. : If this preparation is not
afforded by the public school and
the college, then it must be ac-
quired elsewhere, because it is a
vital necessity. AS the control
of the present school system and
the outlining of the courses OF
study is almost exclusively in
the hands of college men who
have gained their own training
under the old system, whose
prime object was culture, It is
not remarkable that our system
is obsolete and its results inef..
fective. The men and women
who have had vocational train.

STAND TOGETHER.

Argus McSween, writing for the
Philadelphia North American. a pro-
Roosevelt paper. has the following to
say:
"A democratic victory in Iowa
would probably mean the election OF
a democratic senator to succeed Sen
ator Kenyon and several democrats
to succeed the progressive members OF
the house who now represent the
state. There is similar danger in
Kansas, in Minnesota and many OF
the other progressive states.
Lose Effective Fighter.
IF in the states democrats were as
progressive as the republicans, mere
change in the personnel Of the repre'
sentation would not be serious. But
they are not. The loss OF Kenyon to
the state would not only be the loss
of an effective fighter for the public
good, but it might be followed by the
defeat of Senator Cummins two years
later.
Democratic success in Kansas
would defeat Governor Stubs and
make possible the defeat of Senator
Bristow.
"From any progressive standpoint
these would be losses the nation can
not afford
Whatever may be the opinion as tt
the value of these men to the country
| it is undoubtedly true that their polit
ical lives are being jeopardized by the
present situation of the republican
party.
Strange as it may seem the NORTH
American processes to see that the
only way to preserve these men ir
the councils of the nation is to divide
the republican vote by the establish
ment of a Roosevelt party Just
wherein this would strengthen Cum
Minis, Kenyon, Bristow and the rest
we cannot see.
There are approximately 100000 re-
publican voters in the state of Iowa
The several test votes which have
been taken have shown victories first
for one faction and then for another.

THE TAFT SIDE OF IT.

dSpeech of Samuel J. Elder, assist
ant counsel of Taft men before the
committee on credentials at Chicago,
before the Middlesex club of Boston,
l have no desire to stir up any con-
troversy, but the repeated and relt-
Grated charges of theft, robbery, fraud
and steam roller, with which the
press has been filled in the last three
weeks, hurt the party and demand a
reply If these charges were true and
justified by the evidence, republicans
are justified in Furnishing the guilty
parties reientlessly. If they are not
true the. persons making them de-
serve the Reproduction of every honest
man everywhere.
One hundred and three contests
were presented to the rational COM
mittee, involving $50 seats. Most OF
these were Roosevelt contests, and
many of them were set up long after
the conventions whose regularity was
called in question had been held and
the delegates elected been certified to
the national committee. To a very
considerable extent they were the re
suit of tour through the south and
were probably promoted from the out
side and not the result of any contro
versy in the states or districts at
fected.
It is only fair to say that the
charge of robbery of delegates ough'
not to have been made against the
Junior senator from Massachusetts
when it is remembered that it was
largely due to him that no confess
was made concerning the delegates
at-large from Massachusetts,. Tha'
case would have been as strong az
any presented by the Roosevelt man
ayers. The intention of majority
of Massachusetts republicans was
perfectly clear. Upward of 10000 Of
their votes were thrown out because
nine men pledged to Taft were voted
for instead of eight. There could be
no doubt about the intention, espec'
tally when it is borne in mind that
the Taft alternates-at-large were elect
ed and that the presidential express
ion was for Mr.. Taft.
1t is significant that the complaint
now made is not with regard to the
thirty contests, nor with regard to
five or six. As rule these are not
