"Examinitls."

Let us remember that there is such
thing as examinitis, and that a
brain crammed with a multitude Of
useless facts may show up brilliant
ly on an examisation, but be so
clogged as to be unable to put the
knowledge to practical use. We know
we are raising the pedagog's ire by
thus stating that there is such a
thing as too much knowledge, but as
a fact the worlds work is being done
by specialists. who are densely ig
norant Of everything outside their re-
spective narrow spheres-and Of
many things inside, too.-American

method necessitated the expenditure
of a couple of dollars for every pound

FORMER KEOKUK BOY
WINS IN ELECTION
Chosen Alderman at Monmouth and
Receives Vote of Three to
One Against Opponent.

News has just reached the city of
the rise of former young KeoHdk
boy who numbers his friends in his
former home by the score. Last
Tuesday in the primary election held
at Monmouth, Ill, James C. Philips
received an almost unanimous vote as
the aldermanic candidate in the fifth
his opponent by vote of to j, and
casting over one-third of the entire
vote cast in the city primary for the
union candidates.
In this ward, union candidate
has not been elected for eight years
and only two in the past twelve years,
still in the face of these odds it is
predicted that Jim" or "Babbltt'' as
most of the young men in KeolSul
will remember him will overcome the
odds and receive the big end of the
votes.
Mr.. Phillips is one of Keokul1' 8
young men who was reared and edu-
Gated in this city and kept going to
the front from the time he left Keo-
kuk where he was connected Nth
the NJ. l.. Boyles Lumber Commission
Company. He has always been a
hustler and has made a success of all
his undertakings and if the voice of
his many friends in Keokuk is any
criterion to the Monmouth residents
iof his ward If they elect him they will
find him to be a man of his word and
capable of handling the wards inter.
ests to their satisfaction
Jim is the son of John w. Phillips
who has been with the Taber Lumber
company for years.

election which will be held April 18th

Repeal Of Free Tolls Clause Of Pana-
ma Canal Law is Up
to Them.

limited Press Leased Wire Service.I
WASHINGTON, March 15.-Propos-
ed repeal of the free tolls" clause of
the Panama canal law, Is squarely
up to- President Wilson and Secre-
tary of State Bryan. This was the
declaration tonight of democratic
leaders at the capital. The question
provoked by Great Britain's demaSSs
for repeal, is being considered bs
the president and his premier, but no
reply to the British note has yet beel
decided upon, or tentatively framed.
This was positively declared today by
persons close to the administration.
No move will be made in congress
toward repeal of the enactment OBJ
1ected to by Great Britain, except for.
nal introduction of bills to repeal the
free tolls section, until some indi
cation of the new administration S
position is divulged.
Representative Sims of Tennessee
and other advocates of repeating the
section, emphatically denied reports
tonight that Secretary Bryan and
resident Wilson have sought counsel
with senator's and representatives re
garding a definite policy.
