THE COUNTY SCHOOL SUPERIN.
TENDEN1.

Should the county superintendent
of schools be a judge, a sheriff, a po-
litical ot~iiceholder, or just an educator
who knows his business and gives his
whole attention to the schools? He
is or has been all of these in differ.
ent parts of the United States. In
Texas it is the county Judge who
serves in many of the counties as eX-
ofticio superintendent of schools. and
in at least N state the sheriff used
to hold the office. But Texas expects
soon to have real county superin.
tendents in all the counties that are
still without them, according to in
formation received at the United
States Bureau of Education.
The new Texas plan is based on the
urgent needs Of the states rural
schools. Texas has th~ree.quarters Of
a million rural school children. Eth.
cient county supervision is a prime
requisite for efficient rural schools,
and Texas proposes to maintain eff.
ciet rural schools. She Is endeavor.
ing to relieve her county judges, who
make no claim to expert knowledge
of rural school supervision. of their
duties as county superintendent of
schools, and to select real superin.
tendents whose first claim to the posi-.
ton is professional training and abil.
ity. ....
Not only does Texas desire to have
regular county superintendent in
charge of all of the schools in place
of county judges, but she aims to
make sure that the superintendent
will not be political nominees. The
proposed plan puts the selection of
the county superintendent in the
hands of the county board of educa.
ton to the end that this officer, like
his city colleague, may be chosen for
educational fitness rather than for POI
litical expediency. The whole idea is
to make the county superintendent.
as he is in many states and as he
ought to be wherever the office exists,
a professionally trained school ex-
pert.
There are probably few cases where
the important work of school supervi-
sion is assigned to a county Judge or
a sheriff, hut there are still very many
localities where the Texas ideal of a
professionally trained county superin-
Itendent, free from political ties, is not
yet. realized Educators everywhere
believe that adequate supervision by

TO THE CITIZENS OF BISMARCK

As a candidate for the responsible
office of President of the City Com
mission l deem it only proper that my
concerning the policies and principles
for which l stand, and l therefore take
this opportunity OF making a brief
statement on otlese,lsubjects.
OUR city is growing by. leaps and
bounds. There is "a sdenand at the
present time for at least one hundred
modern houses more than are now
available for our rapidly increasing
population. L therefore believe in
as active and aggressive administra-
ton of our city's affairs as is consist
ent with a wise and economical ex-
penditure of the funds in the public
treasury.
With increasing population will
come a lowering OF the scale Of light
and water rates, which l believe to
be high, and l favor al the present
time any action which will give our
citizens relief along these lines, pro-
vided that such action is consistent
with contracts now existing with the
public service corporations. | have
striyen to secure such relief in the
past and some slight concessions have
been granted. Further reductions
may be looked for and it will be my
policy to make this matter Heading
feature of the next administration
should l be successful at the polls
next Tuesday. In this connection |
favor the granting to any responsible
corporation of a gas franchise, believ-
ing that competition will result in ms.
terial benefit to the public.
l believe in the completion and
eQuipping of a municipal auditorium
as rapidly as possible. Contracts have
already been signed which I consider
to be very favorable to the city, and
there is no reason why a building
worthy of the capital city should not
be ready for use next fall. The I'M
fortunate delays which have occurred
in the past have been, in no sense
the fault of the commissioners, but
we're caused by the great excess In
cost Of the building proposed to be
erected under the first plans and spec
ifications over the amount available
for construction-somethtlgs like
100000. The city, however, has suf-
fered no pecuniary loss by the delay,
the $4,000 voted having drawn four
per cent interest since twas receiv-
ed from the state, thus ofsetting the

FARMERS COOPERATION IN DEN.
MARK.

Minneapolis Tribune: Denmark is
a little country of not much more than
5000 square miles in area--less than
ione.ffth OF the area of Minnesota
and a population somewhere In the
neighborhood OF two and one.half. mil
lions. This country OF late years has
given a striking example of what can
be accomplished by cooperation
among farming communities.
Jacob Riis, in an article In the
Craftsman, on the land where Farm
ers Are the Rulers says that prior
to 1880 the Danish h%usbandman car.
ried on his operations in a haphazard
manner, and his exports were not
notable for their superior quality,
nor was his average condition espe.
cially prosperous.
But now. the opposite is the case.
The year 1880 saw the beginning Of
the cooperative method. 1t was first
applied in dairying. then in the max
ing of bacon, and the raising of poul-
try and eggs. Today, Denmark ships
to England more than half a million
dollars worth a week Of the best but
ter In the world, at twice the old
price. Her slaughter houses handle
annually some thirteen hundred
thousand hogs, bred on home
soil, and produce bacon of superior
quality. The value Of the eggs export
is over $7,00O,0 900 year.
Also, through cooperation, the Dan.
ish farmers have met and beaten the
trusts that formerly robbed them Of
a good share Of their profits! They
mainram rnetr~own selling agencies
in London; they send their wares
across the North Sea in their own
ships, and they buy their supplies di.
rect from the manufacturers at first
prices.
Through cooperation, the Danish
farmers have become the most pros
porous agriculturists in the world. As
a rule. each farmer owns his own farm
and if he needs money for his opera.
tiions he borrows it Oh his own terms.
This prosperity gives the farmers
their due weight of influence in the
government. ~ O.
About one.third Of the members Of
the rigsdag are farmers. and the farm
ers are said to run the country. 1t
is up to any farming community, any.
where, to adopt similar cooperative
methods. ..-.

Map For Commission.

The state engineers office is engag-
ed at the present time in making what
will probably be the most accurate
railroad map that has ever been at
tempted of the state of North Dakota.
The map will be a large affair and
will have all the lines of road that are
actually built outlined. The curse Of
the routes will be very carefully map
ped>o out and the entire map will be d.
vided down to quarter sections. The
map will be of great use to the rail-
road commission in making locations
for various uses.

old Guns Secured,

The historical society has recently
come into possession of a couple Of
old time Buffalo guns. One was a
Sharp made in 1852 and vas donated
to the museum by Chris Henzler of
this city. The second is still older
and was sent here from Buford by
Capt. Forbes and was made in 1916.
They do not look as tho they would
do much execution when lined UP be-
side the high power guns used in the
present time in killing big game, but
it was with these weapons that the
plains of the west were depopulated Of
the buffalo. ... .". A..

purposes. Suddenly the dam gave way,
| and the liberated waters rushed down
the narrow valley. and swept through
the doomed town. The death list from
that flood has been placed at 2,23o,
this being the actual figures Of the
loss so far as it has been possible to
ascertain it. 1t is not doubted that
there we're some deaths which never
became known, and the actual loss
would be Il little higher than the fig.
ures quoted.
The death loss in the present series
of floods and storms Is greater than
that at Jametown. as the figures now
run over 5000, and, while there was
no such devastation in any one local
ity as fell upon the little city Of Johns
town, because of the wide area affect
ed the loss and suffering that has fall
len On an immensely greater number
of families. Throughout the greater
part of several states there has been
damage enough done to cause anxiety
in the minds of those who have
friends in any OF the localities.
With every such flood one is made
to wonder whether, in the later de-
velopments OF our city building, the
levee system will. after all, be retain.
ed. Dayton is situated on the Miami
river and it vas supposed to be pro-
tected from flood by levees some 25
feet high which were intended to keep
within bounds the waters of the river
in time of flood. Exactly the thing
against which It was supposed pro-
vision had been made occurred, and
the defense proved inadequate. When
the break occurred there was no help.
The raging waters swept irresistibly
through the city, and the results are
being spread before us in the terrible
stories Of desolation which fill the
news dispatches. Had there been no
levee there would have been nothing
to break. There would have been a
flood. but instead of rushing down up.
on the city. the water would have
crept gradually, reaching higher and
higher levels, until the limit had been
reached. Those in its way would have
had warning and would have had time
to make their preparations to escape.
The levee gave an appearance of Sc
curity, and when the levee failed all
was lost. 1t may be possible to build
these defenses in such a manner that
the waters will not move them. even
in time of extraordinary pressure. If
they are not built for the extraordi-
nary they are worse than useless.
At any rate we who need no levees
have reason to congratulate ourselves.
We may suffer damage in various
ways Rising waters may on rare &C.
casions drive a few of us from our
homes. But we can at least go to sleep
at night. without having any occasion
to wonder whether the man.made
works of. defense against flood will
prove strong enough.

holdino Dairy Meetings.

Dairy Commissioner Flint was at
Hensler in Oliver county yesterday
where he conducted a very successful
dairy meeting. 1t is a fact that the
people of Oliver county are taking a
great deal of interest in the dairy
business and with the advent Of more
railroad lines into that county and the
consequent better shipping facilities
there will be a great boom in that
business. Mr. Perez was also at the
Hensler meeting. A meeting will be
held at Pingree today with Assistant
E. A. Greenwood in charge.

PASSING OF A PIONEER.

After having sung old-time relig-
ious and patriotic melodies almost
continuously day and night for three
weeks, Oliver Trudeau, sc, for almost
30 years resident of Toledo, died at
his home, 131 Millard avenue, at S:45
o'clock Saturday morning. The aged
Toledoan, who reared a family of 13
children, succumbed to the infrmities
OF age, augmented by severe cold.
Mr.. Trudeau came to Toledo from
Montreal, Canada, in 1864. On coming
to the city he maintained a soda ash
plant on the East Side, which then
principally was timber land. During
later years he was a shoemaker. His
wife, formerly Sophia Isabel, whom
he married in 1850, died four years
ago, when preparations were being
made by the couple to celebrate the
sixtieth wedding anniversary.
Mr.. Trudeau is survived by seven
sons and three daughters. Six of the
sons, who reside in Toledo and one in
Perrysburg, acted as pallbearers. One
son, Charles Trudeau, of Los Angeles,
CAL, was unable to attend. The six
sons residing here are: Oliver, Jr.,
Levi, Barney (of Perrysburg), Louis,
Joseph and Samuel. The three
daughters are: Mrs. Fred Gilchrist, of
Deshler, Ohio; Mrs. F. N. Garand, of
Toledo, and Miss Ada Trudeau, resid-
ing at home.
The funeral service will be held at
st. Louis church at $3.50 on Tuesday
morning. Rev. Father Hart will pre-
side. Burial will be made in Calvary
cemetery.-Toledo Blade.
Many Perrysburg friends extend
sympathy to Mr.. Trudeau in his be-
reavement.
