THE TEACHERS ARE THE SCHOOL

To solve the problem Of the greatest
graduate school for the city OF New
York. is only to solve the problem OF
securing and holding the twenty greatest
experts in twenty subjects, who add TO
national reputation rugged character and
reasonable teaching ability The only
thing that will make men study I'm New
York rather than in Berlin Will be the
fact that the New York professor Is re-

AN INTELLECTUAL AWAKENING.

When the foundation of New York Uni
versty was under discussion In this city,
in 1899, one of the arguments used for its
establishment was that IL ought TO be
possible TO find in America the knowledge
which at that time could only be found
abroad. At the conference which met in
New York City in 1880 TO discuss the aim
and methods of university instruction,
papers were presented that discussed uni
versity education not only in England,
Scotland and Ireland, but in Germany,
France, Switzerland and Spain. AS re-
suit of the discussions at this convention
the ideas Of the founders of this unlversi-
ty were broadened, and in the memorial
addressed to the Legislature of the State
Of New York. unanimously adopted by the
university council when applying for
charter in 1891 it was stated:
IAN anxiety has long been entertained
by n en- OF letters that a seminary should
be furnished by this country presenting
the same advantages for finished edu-
eaton which are enjoyed in the great uni
yersities Of Europe. Your petition
trs are persuaded that the City Of New
York affords advantages which give
eater assurance of success in thN re-
spect than can at present be looked for

HOW TO KEEP A FACULTY YOUNG

The history OF all three OF these insti-
tutlons, however shows that the problem
is not as simple one as might be sup
posed. The authority of to-day Is not the
authority Of tomorrow The achieve
ments OF the young make the fame of
Yesterday the empty pretence of to-day
and the university has no method OF
scrapping !ts out Of date machinery as
the factory and street railway have. The

AN INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL.

II some one were to give me tomorrow,
without restriction. a sum equal to that

amount for the permanent endowment OF
professorships, and would devote every

Quarter We could make the graduate
school not national but international, and
draw our students from every nation OF
the globe.
In this way we should hope not so
much to mould the lives of individuals as
to mould the destinies of nations, to a
greater extent even than was dreamed Oh
by Cecil Rhodes. We have seen the last
year the effect of American teaching
in the Balkans and in China. 1t Is TO
make a great difference in the history OF
future civilization, whether the young
men OF the Orient study in America or in
Germany, just as it will make great

of which type of civilization is to sur

1t is right that university professors

therefore, to use longer units in measur-
ing their efficiency than more ephemeral
institutions. But because OF this security
OF tenure all the professorships Of new

with the result thai the faculty grow old

college professors in America who knew
a great deal more than they had oppor-

was little or no systematic provision for
giving this instruction to the exceptional
student who wanted it. The result was
that our most ambitious young men nee

Editor Palladium-As / have been
quoted as not being in favor Of paving
the court house hill from the bridge
to Fourth street, l will give a few
reasons why.
In the first place, the c. & O. refuses
TO go up or down, so II is a case of
paving the hill as the grade is now
or wait a while and raise the grade
upon level with the c. 4 o. bridge,
which is where the Main street grade
should be, and the Main street bridge
reconstructed and made wide enough
TO place the car tracks in the center.
This would eliminated all danger and
confusion that We now have all the
way from the west end of the bridge
east to Third street grade cross
ing is not desirable, but in this case
1t would be much better than the CON
ditiOns We have now The loss OF
time waiting for train 10 pass will
be many times less than the time we
lose now in pulling up the long hill.
The c. & O. is looking up a new
right-of-way in and out of Richmond,
so that would do away with any grade
crossing in time
The location Of this public improve
ment in connection with the Main

Main street bridge will always have
to take care of two-thirds of the trav-

1t would be impossible to make cOndi-
lions any worse that they are now
from the west end of the bridge east
to Third street. Being located almost
in the center of Richmond, puts this
at the high point and ahead of all
other improvements we have in

big strike; it requires experience and special
ability. And the strikers are as consistent in
calling in outside aid as the preachers are who
give way before an imported revivalist
1t is everywhere beginning to be felt that our
present methods of regulating industry are
Just and extravagant. The men who invest their
lives N a concern should have voice in it's
agement and so should they who invest their
money. But it seems to US that so long as work
ers are ptted against employers, the former
seeking to sell their labor at the highest figure
and the latter to buy it at the lowest, peace
can be had. 1t is too much like letting the par
ties to suit hand down the courts verdict Both
sides are prejudiced The whole thing should be
left to the arbitrament of the public which, in
the last analysis is sovereign over both capital
and labor.

Chief Gormon

Chief Gormon of the police department is to
be complirnented the efficient plan of cam
paign he has decided on to check the wave OF
crime which has spread over the city the past
few days. His plan is simple as it is effect
i've and with the cooperation of the citizens
should bring about the desired result-maklng
Richmond the most unpopular place in the state
with the criminal classes.
The "dragnst" that Mr.. Gormon has thrown
about the city is certain to bring in some lnno-
cent and law abiding people, but they will es-
cape with discredit to themselves when their
identity has been established. At the same time
this "dragnet" will bring into the clutches of the
law those men who have created reign of ter
ror by their lawless acts, which is excuse enough
for the chiefs method of suppressing thievery
and thuggery in Richmond.
It is timely to state that Chief Gormon's
drastic action to suppress crime in Richmond at
this time is not the only act of efficiency he has
displayed during his administration of police
affairs in Richmond. He has shown an intelli-
gent and an enthusiastic interest in the perform
ance of his exacting duties, and as officer has
made numerous enemies, which is only natural.
Without enemies his long record an officer of
the law would be without merit.
Chief Gormon is now an expert in his line of
work. He is known and feared by the creatures
of the underworld and he has maintained his de-
partment at an exceptional degree of efficiency
In accomplishing this, however, Mr.. Gormon has
been handicapped by nggardly and shortsight
ed policy the part of the present administra
ton. What modern police methods he has been
able to introduce into the department have been
secured by overcoming much opposition. He
has worked tireessly in the performance of his
duties, and has served detective we'll as
police chief. Last, but not least, Chief Gormon
donated the use of his own automobile to his de-
partment, modern police necessity which the
present administration has consistently chosen
to ignore.

The Indianapolis Strike

At even so short distance that which
separates us from our neighboring city it is diff
ficult to so trying an event as the strike
through UMPIRE JUDGED eyes, but it seems that aft
making all due allowances for passion, wilful
and selfishness there is solid basis of
legitimate dissatisfaction beneath the strikers.
According to reliable witnesses these team
sters and motor truck drivers paid an aver
age of $11O9 per week for day ranging from
ten to twelve hours And so high is the cost of
living so per cent of these driven to ask
every week for advance on their pay. For a
single man to live decently on eleven dollars a
week means the most careful economy but for
a family to attempt subsistence such a pit
lance niggardliness in the extreme.
How they do it," said competent and catholic
spirited Indianapolis citizen, 'is mystery to
me. Had been teamster I should have agi-
tated this trouble long ago.
But what is happening there is merely
symptom of conditions obtaining everywhere
across the land and may expect such out
bursts so long as the present status quo is main
tanned.
strike is a double, treble misfortune,
for it cuts into the well-being of employer en-
ploye and the general public. Men lose their
wages, employers lose from closed shop, and
-
as things are, there is nothing for the men
but organization and strike. Every nations ex-
perience, over and over, has demonstrated that
very few employers WILL ever feel they
can, voluntarily raise wages. Therefore, if the
wage earners are to larger share in their
product to meet the advanced level of subsst-
ence, they must go after it themselves. 1t always
has been this way and we may expect it to con-
tinue for long time
Organization is a fundamental right. Al
single empty stomach cannot pit itself against a
corporation. The men must move en- masse or
not at all. The employers have acknowledged
the right of organized action for they them
selves, have everywhere organized as also have
the capitalists who finance their undertakings |
One of the grievances against the strikers in i
Indianapolis is that they have called in outside
agitators to conduct the thing; resident business
men resent this intrusion. But they them
selves employ experts from without to install
scientific management in their factories; their
own capital is itself foreign importation and in |
many cases the principal owners of these Indian
apolis concerns are outsiders. Besides, the en-
ployers have repeatedly requested that the gov
rnor call in the militia, which is anything but a |
home concern. No ordinary man can conduct a |
