O'hARA'S BAD ADVICE.
Lieutenant Governor o'Hara,

Lieutenant Governor O'Hara, Of Ill.,

their children from the public schools OF
Chicago until Mrs. Flagg whose resig-
nation as superintendent Of the schools
was brought about under pressure,
snail be reinstated in the position froui
which she was forced.
Whatever the facts may be as re-
manner in which it was forced his is
ground entirely foreign to a state exc
cutive. Certain limitations hedge a
state official. He loses certain local

when he counsels a strike of school
children and the utter generalization Of
the schools Of a metropolis he Is GER
tainly outside the dignity and beyond
the propriety Of, action which should
characterize an official who may be
chief executive OF the state next week
by the accident OF circumstance and
whose duty 1t may be to oppose a
lawless strike with the strong arm o.
the military.
There seems small doubt that the re-
signation Of the school board of Chica-
go would De a blessing to the city.
There is not much doubt that Mrs.
iF1agg is more valuable in the position
she held thar the entire school board
is on its job; but there are other ways
of protest besides a strike which nigh,

the WOMAN At The DOCTORS.

She sat in the consulting room of a
MarshaiItown physician, a woUan
somewhere close one way or the other
to 40 years of age. Her blotched fac-
told her secret which was a secret no
longer. She was in the tertiary stage
Of a loathsone disease, the stage
when the tissues Of the flesh and the
brain are attacked and destroyed. She
was poor and alone.
Public charity had sent her to the
medical man and was pledging him
some part of his fee. She lives in a
small cheap room. Her husband and
she are separated. Afflicted as she is
nobody wants her to work. She has
no friends.
No matter how this affection came
to her, whether ~innocently or by her
doctor asked. He saw a woman in the
direst straits, ~friendless, feared, and
facing an awful death as certainly as
tho her clothing were on fire. What
other question is to be asked? What
good will it do to ask questions as to
how a dying man was wounded while
the arteries squirt?
This woman had the weak face Of
q 12-year-old child. If her mentality
were to be tested it would probably be

THAT FORT DODGE FOG.
tSioux City Journal

l1iodA ~ OuAi H.
The Iowa supreme court is to be
course in recalling for calculation it's
opinion in the Fort Dodge saloon Pc
tition case. AS a result of the original
ruling, the question has been raised as
to the validity Of petitions OF consent in
a number OF Iowa cities. In several
cities where petitions are pending
there is uncertainty as to the poll BOOKS
10 be used to insure validity. The
usual course for allaying these doubts
would be taken thru another test case,
to be tken up to the supreme court.
The process would require a years time
or more. and in the meantime further
mischief might be accruing as a result
Of existing uncertainty. The presump-
ton is that all this trouble may be
avoided by a few words added to the
Ford Dodge decision to make plain its
scope.
The point raised in the Fort Dodge
petition test was as to whether a city
election or a later school election
should be used as a basis for a consent
petition. The court decided in favor
of the city election. In its opinion the
court several times made use of an
guage declaring the city election to be
the proper one on which to base SaloOn
consents. AS most of the consents now
on file in Iowa are based or general
elections, the Fort Dodge opinion
created a mild sensation n resulted in
promp efforts to close saloons else
where CT allegations Of insufficient
consent. In the midst of the ensuing
confusion Judge Gaynor. who wrote the
decision. issued a statement in which
he declared it had not been the inten-
ton Of the court to foreclose against
general elections in the Fort Dodge
case: that the language OF his opinion
was misleading; that the declaration in
favor OF the city election applied only
as between the school election and the
city election in the Fort Dodge case.
Later came an opinion from the at
torney generals Office indicating SER
ious doubt as to whether petitions
based on general elections might not
be found illegal under the law.
Out Of the conflict Of interpretations
has come a fog OF confusion which Is
particularly a~ggravating in cities that
are anxious to legalize their petitions
but are unable to ascertain how to
proceed. AS the uncertainty is directly
due to a supreme court decision 1t is
not uniting that the court shall vol
unfairly undertake to lift the fog.
