THE SCHOOL BILLS
They Revert to a Medieval Policy,
It Is Declared.
~ The Editor Of The Tribune

TO the Editor Of The TRIBUNE"
Sir: The educational bills which have
recently been introduced at Albany 10
curtan the power OF the Superintende III
Of Public Schools in New York Clty rep
resent n reactionary policy which deserves
the loudest protest from every man VINO
Is interested i'm the Development OF puoH'
education In the United states.
In the carly days Of American educa-
ton the control Of schools was lett very
largely 10 lay boards and to citizens VINO
were Interested IN a general way Ia the
organization OF the schools. That same
policy can be- found to-day IN the remote
rural regions Of tn" country. but the pc
riod has long passed when the cOntiOl oi
the complicated educational situation
which presents itself I'm American cities
can be taken over by An ineXpert board
II IS astonishing 10 find that men VINO III
business employ without any hesitation
experts and depend upon their judgment
should regard the business Of education
as so trivial in character that tney are
willing 10 set their own private judgments
over against the judgment OF a ualneu
expert.
The work which has been carried on
during the last fifteen years in New YORK
city f. enough 70 Justify the confidence
Of expert educators that the time mas
come when II is impossible for the layman
20 tamper with the large interests OF the
school without interfering with thaF
sound development. When the present
Superintendent OF Schools came 10 Ne"
York CITY after its consolidation he fouhu
A situation which was clearly prccarious'
The authority had rested up TO that TINE
I'm tine hands Of laymen who were not
competent 10 manage the affairs Ct the
schools Through ohe development OF a
tochnica! expert organization OF very
nigh degree of efficiency the present sup
erlntendent has changed the situation 50
that Il is no longer chaotic and political
as II was in the DAYS when he took Il up.
The effort 10 bring back the carly DAYS
OF complete educational chaos cannot be
looked upon BY any one who Is Interested
IN the problem without clear recognition
OF the fact that this is a political move
untust.aed b. any careful consideration
Of the needs ~ the school children and
the school system.
The voice Of protest should De 80 LOUD
that 10 will be impossible for these bills
20 pass That voice OF protest should he
heard not only from the ,itZens OF Ne"
York. who Will be imme,suraoly injured
by this medieval policy, but II Should
also be- raised by educators all over the
country who look TO New York not for
reactiouary policies In education. but for
steady advancement ana for that eXern-
plincation Of compact and efficient or
ganizatlou which NAV be- followed In
other parts Of the country.

THE STATE OF MANHATTAN.

To TN. Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir. ! have read the wagner PLAZA for
home rule for the police. and from time
10 time other measures suggesting home
rule for this city.
n the Legislature is sincere. it seems
To me that it should provide FOR con-
sti,utionai amendment 20 divide this
state in TWO.
have advocated tA.s measure lor many
wears ia the newspapers. and believe
that lf il could be accomplished II
would benefit both sections OF the state.
II our progressive Democrats aad Repub-
leans would unite and advocate this
measure and make IL an accomplished
tact. We would have genuine home rule
for tie city and would not iced legisla-
ton giving US home rule by pieoemeal.
The population ~ this city alone is larger
than that OF any state I'm the Union eX-
cept PENNSYLVANIA and Illinois. DO not
insist on a name for the proposed new
state. but ! believe South New York or

PATRONAGE.

President Wilson's plan 90 allow
postmasterS and other officials 10 serve

and before him President Cleveland.
more particularly in his second term,
followed substantially The same policy.
The present loyalty 10 it, however. IN
view of the natural hunger Of Demo
Gratis FOR office after sixteen continuous
years In opposition, does credit 10 the
President and bears witness TO the
growing strength of the idea that II
political change Of administration Is no
reason for q wholesale distribution OF
spoil~
Postmaster General BurlesOn's state
mont Of the administration intentions
IN this regard does not apply 10 the
fourth class postmasterS classified last
summer by President Taft. for they
have no fixed terms. Nevertheless. IT
suggests Il disposition 10 resist the de-
mands for the revocation Of Mr. TaftS
order.
When thus classified these postmaS-
ters were indeed political appointments
made under the system prevailing al
the time. But the only way to cure
the system was 10 cover them ~.
lust as the only way 10 resume specie
Dayment was 10 resume despite the
fact that some men gained unearned
wealth by il. BY this act the spoils
door was closed. and il should he kept
closed. Thus the whole POstofiice De
partment Will reach new standard Of
efficiency.
Tbese can be no possible reason for
undoing this classification except to
please Job hunters for whom President
Wilson is showing commendable dis
regard.

told that the social stigma Of domestic

HIGH LINE NOW BALLASTED.
Forty-two Miles Completed this week
At Cost of 100000 to Com

Tribune: At the offices of the Cam
as Prairie Railroad company it was
learned that the ballasting work on
the road from Reubens to Grangeville
a distance of AZ miles, would be COM
pleted Wednesday night, the last sec
uon of track to receive attention
being located in the immediate vicin-
ity of the rock crusher near Cotton
wood. The ballasting material has
consisted of crushed rock and the line
has now been put in first-class shape,
the crushed rock ballasting method
being adopted as the logical means
for making the line safe one. How
ever, the cost has been heavy, reach
ing, it is estimated, about 100000.
The work was started in October,
1910, and at periods two work trains
were engaged in delivering the ma
.erial. The rock used rea. he'd ITO,
900 cubic yards, the crusher being
operated under contract by Dole &
