GREAT NATIONAL CONTEST.

The greatest educational contest
ever undertaken in this country is to
be inaugurated within the next few
days. 1t gives every indication of be-
coming one of the important events
of the approaching holiday season.
More than 1900 awards are to be made
to school children and teachers. for
the purpose OF ascertaining the liter
airy ability of children in the public
schools of the United States.
The undertaking is in the nature Of
a great contest between the school
children of the country for the Amer
lean championship in 500 word prize
essay competition. There are to be
100 cash awards Of SIS each to pupils;
100 cash awards OF IS each to teach
ers; 1000 Tiffany medals and 1000 en-
graved diplomas to the winners of the
competition. These awards have beer
donated by the Remington Arms I'm
ion Metallic Cartridge company, of
New York, one OF the greatest of our
American industrial institutions.
1t is probable that the school chill
dren of this town and the surround
ing villages will enter the contest with
the intent of bringing some of the
honOrs to our community. 1t is known
that there are many children here
who have shown exceptional ability
in their school work, and they stand
an unusually good opportunity to win
one of the awards in the national
championship. The RemingtOn-UMC
Literary Committee, which has charge
of the contest, has its headquarters
at 299 Broadway, New York.

 Debs, socialist candidate for presi- dent voiced the situation succinc1ly enough when he said, yesterday, "If Roosevelt believed a majority of the people anarchists, he would become one himself"
 Why should an honest movement elect such a leader. The answer $ not difficult Roosevelt could com- mand money to back his ambitions, the millions of money of the Steel Trust and the Harvester Trust. Mon ey, the progressive leaders believed, was imperatively necessary to any campaign that should succeed. It was the devil and the deep sea that pre- sented. The devil of poverty upen tious of tainted money upon the other.
 What will the harvest be? Assum- ing the nomination of Roosevelt, can any progressive cause really progress Can a reform party, consisting half of democratic principles and half of plutocratic poodle gain the affections of the American people?
 As for Taft, should he be chosen, the Republican party must face the country for its last stand, perhaps, ds a great national organization.
 Thus will it perish in it's true col ors as creature solely of plutocracy and privilege. without heart beat for the common man or desire, ex- cept to produce a national environ ment from which may proceed in the shortest space of time the greatest possible number of multimillionaires
