Learning BY Experience.

II is said that there is no such thing
as standing still; VI go either forward
or backward. It is not q good thing
to stand still, II there be such q condi-
ton, and 1t is worse to go backward.
Climbing upward means broadening
the horizon and enlarging the whole
life.
No doubt not more than one out of
every three grown persons In the
world fully makes his, or her, way
and helps others to live. This means
that two persons out of every three are
passive or dependent upon others.
No wonder, then, that labor is so
scarce and that the cost of living is SO
high, If only nj out of every three
grown persons is a producer.
Our schools OF the past-some of the
present-have been to blame for this
condition of human ineficiency. They
did not and are not teaching pupils
the fret principles Of a sound and
sane educatton-how to care for ones
self and to make q living. There has
been too much waste OF time and mis-.
direction OF human energy in the study
of the dead languages and the study
OF other dead and irrelevant things.
The majority Of our school graduates
have been helpless to help themselves
till they have gone out into the wide
world and learned all over again,
learned the real and vital things worth
while.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF cHoUrEAU COUNTY
WEDNESDAY, FEB. s, 1918.
CREATING NEW

The proceedings In the Thirteenth
assembly, BY which 1t is proposed &c
create several new counties by legisla'
tive enactment, form an interesting
feature of the session. It has been
general belief that q law enacted by
the Legislature two years ago provides
the only method by which new counties
q be formed, but come of the mem.
bers of the present assembly appear
to hold a contrary opinion.
The promoters of these new county
schemes are advised by the attorney
general that theiripropositions are I'm.
constitutional, but this advice does
not appear to discourage their efforts
to pass the bills that have been intro
duced. The attorney general bases
his opinion upon theIfact that q gen.
eral law for the creation OF new coun-
ties is in effect, that 1t has been tested
by the form ation..of three new counties
under its provisions, and announces
his belief that the creation Of q new
county by any othersmethod would be
irregular and invalid.
The attempt to create q new county
by legislative enactment, according to
the attorney general, i%slcontrary to q
provision Of the state constitution
which says: "Where q general law
can be made applicable, no special
law shall be enacted ~ To the average
lsyman this prohibition would appear
to block the creation Of q new county
by legislative enactment, but two
measures for th~e;creation of Wibaux
and Phillips countiesbreceptly passed
the state senate.and Iare being urged
for passage injthe:house.
II the promoters sof these schemes
meet with success in:the assembly, and
The bills arejsignedlbyi'the governor,
. very peculiar situation may develop.
The legal existence fl:the new coun.
ties will be asm after of doubt, but 1t
is understood their status could only
be determined by proceedings in.
stituted by ,heuattorney general. In
the event Of his,refusal to act, the new
county governments would be estab.
lished.
There is a suspicion"sthat attempts
to create new counties by legislative
enactment have iniview the repeal of
the law now In effect, by which the
question is determined by popular
vote. 1t such alplan is contemplated, it
may meet with trouble when it is con.
fronted by thesiconstitutioual provi.
zion that mo special law shall be
enacted where a general law can be
made applicable"
In this connection it is unfortuu ate
that the promoters:of one OF the new
county ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS for the
proposed new county q name which
would perpetu ates0the memory of q
scandal In thes spolitical history of
Montana that would best be'forgotten.

Somebody lust Puts His Name on
the Ticket and His Friends
Do the Rest.

Representative Tinsley Ragland, of
Talbot County, is a shoe drummer
who is elected regularly to the Leg
islature every other year, notwith-
standing the fact that he spends
most of his time on the road and pays
small attention to his political fences.
For so days every year, Ragland
takes a vacation and runs up to At
lanta to attend a session Of the House.
Otherwise he never bothers much. He
knows somebody will put his name
on the ticket in Talbot on election
day, and his admiring constituents
never fail to do the rest.
Ragland is known to more mer-
chants, big city as well as cross
roads, than most anybody selling
shoes in this country. If he should
run for Governor he undoubtedly
would get large vote, scattered from
one end of Georgia to the other.
One of his biggest political assets
is a broad and expansive smile.
Whenever the people of Talbot Coun-
ty are in doubt whether to vote for
Ragland one more time they think
Of that smile, and vote accordingly.

PREPARES
CASES. AGAINST
? 8POL|CEMEN

Chief of Police Beavers Monday
prepared formal charges against the
eight policemen, the revelations of
whose alleged conduct in a notorious
negro resort in the rear of 127 Au-
burn Avenue created a sensation LAST
week.
The charges will be submitted for
the action of the Police Commission
when it sits July s. The general ac-
cusation will be that of conduct IN
becoming a police officer.
The specific charges will include the
allegations that several of the officers
involved in the unsavory scandal
were in the habit Of frequenting the
resort; that some of the men were
accustomed to drink liquor there and
, that all of them knew of the exist
ence of the place. which was being
conducted in violation of the law.
To Investigate Quarrel.
Reference also will be made to the
the officers one Sunday morning
about three months ago, in which a
shooting is said narrowly to have
been averted by the interference of
one of the negroes. Mack c. Folds
and j. P. Born were the policemen
whose names were mentioned in this
connection.
The other patrolmen whose cases
will be considered by the commission
are J. ]. Jackson, J. E. Mcdaniel l..
w. Evans, R. T. David, Y. H. Bailey
and r. A. Wood.
Wood, as soon as the charges
against him were made public, denied
them in so far as they implied wrong
doing and sent in his resignation.
Chief Beavers said Monday that the
resignation would not be accepted, but
that 1t would be sent to the Police
Commission along with the charges.
Commissioners Aroused.
THE Commissioners have expressed
themselves as greatly aroused by the
revelations of alleged police corrup
ton and have asserted that the probe
will continue until every person on
the force against whom adequate evil
dence can be obtained has been dis
charged or disciplined
The eight man edmit they have Wis
tied the place, which is conducted by
a negro woman, Ola Bradley, but they
say that it was in their regular line
of duty. Most of them deny drinking
there. Those who admit this phase Of
the charges explain that they bought
liquor 10 obtain evidence against the
place. They declare the charges are
unjust in the extreme and that they
will fight to vindicate themselves.
