CARD FROM j. c. ELGlN, SR.

| To the Democratic Voters of Paris:
Fred Link, who is a candidate for
| Chief of Police of Paris, seems to have
a hobby of breaking into print, and
this week had scattered over Paris a
circular telling of his great" record
as a detective and spoke of other
things in regard to the fitness of man
man for Chief of Police. He says that
man when he gets to be fifty years
old should be retired as a Chief of
Police, and of course that refers to
me. For his benefit | will say that
the Chiefs of Police of Maysville, Car
Isle, Lexington, Richmond, Winches-
ter Georgetown, Frankfort, Louisville
and other placesih Kentucky are over
so years of age, and the late James
Mernaugh was over so years of age
and died in office.
Mr. Link denies that he was a strike
breaker in Chicago. If this charge is
false, he is the one responsible for the
falsehood, for he told the following
gentlemen he was strike-breaker:
John Duvall, Interurban Conductor;
Chas. Barnett, City fireman; VIM. Col
Inns, City fireman; c. w. Heck, ]. c..
Elgin, ST., and many others, and brag
ged about it.
George Morat, of this city, was in Chi
cago at the time of the strike, and
knew Link was one of the strike break
ers.
Link brags about his promptness in
attending to calls for Police duty.
When Albert Wright's residence was
entered by burglar Wright called for
Link, but his wife said he was asleep
and she would tell him when he awoke.
He never answered the call
If he assisted\ in arresting so many
criminals he never reported them to
headquarters, as he had been ordered
to do.
Four weeks ago he was off duty
without permission, and out fishing all
day Sunday. On the following Mon
day morning h was taken before
Mayor Hinton and lectured for his
neglect of duty.
| have served on the police force for
16 years, and for the four years past
l have held the position of Chief, so
long held by the late James Mernaugh
If l have filled his shoes acceptably, l
ask your support and influence. / am
not making the race on any mans de-
merits, but upon my own merits, if l
have any.
For SO years l have voted the Demo
cratic ticket, and as to my Democracy
there can be no doubt.
Hoping that you will give me an en-
dorsement, | remain most respectfully,
fully,
J. c.. ELGIN, .SR.

band When he learned that Mr. Pur-
nell was away from home he asked
her for a drink of water and followed
her into the house to get it. There he
seized her, threw her to the floor, bit
ing her cheek in the struggle which en-
sued, the marks of his teeth still show
ing in her flesh.

WORD FOR k1R. BRockWAY.

Representative Brockway, who has
aeen made chairman of the roads COM
mittee Of the house, is a conservative
in the good roads movement and gives
it out as his opinion that Iowa is not
yet ready for permanent surfacing of
roads. He also believes that when the
time comes for the larger work the
localities should be consulted as to
what roads are to be improved.
Mr.. Brockway Is both right and
wrong. Iowa is ready for permanent
roads if her lawmakers will but give
her the necessary machinery. but no
permanent road burden should be
thrust upon any locality without its
own consent. Mr.. Brockway should
know that in Texas where they have
local option road law, which permits
special assessment road Improvement
districts to be formed and county road
bonds issued total of s3,496,200 in
road bonds were voluntarily voted this
last year alone In fifty local bond
elections thirty-three carried for the
bonds and seventeen failed. Consider
ing that this was in Texas where land
can scarcely compare with Iowa land
and where population is much thinner
per mile this should be evidence enough
that the public is ready for permanent
roads if given a chance.
There are some twenty other states
in which authority for county road
bonds and special road districts is Civ

do for Iowa without seeming to go in
advance Of the times for the final au-
tI1ority must be voted by the localities
that build the roads.
providing for state bond issues because
state bonds sell at a much lower rate
of interest than local bonds. To do
this would require an affirmative vote
Of our people and the present legis-
lature can at least provide for this vote
to be taken without getting too far in
two years to take the vote and several
years more in which to get to work,
and even then the voters Of the locali-
ties to be improved will have to vote
their end of the Improvement so there
need be little fear of getting ahead Of
the times. The time for the legislature
TO act is now.

COLTS, CALVES AND SCHOOL CHILDREN.

A farmer at any rate a successful
farmer. selects his horses for the pur-
poses to which they are to be put. He
doesn't use road horses for the plow,
or pick percherons for driving team.
He doesn't breed Jerseys for beef, Dur
hams for the dairy or Tamworth hogs
for lard The school authorities OF
New Orleans seem to have noticed TINS.
Children in the schools of New
Orleans are to be Systematically studied
by experts with respect to their capac-
ty for education. Under the terms OF
cooperative agreement between the
local school board and Newcomb Col
lege of Tulane University. children who
are fro any reason markedly 'excep-
tionar' will be selected by. the school
authorities and referred for individual
examination to the psychological labor
atory at Newcomb College. provided the
parents give their consent.
A detailed plan of procedure has been
devised, in which parent, teacher, soci-
ologist. physician and psychologist CO.
operate in examining tn echildren. The
schoolteachers will take the first step
in the examination. Following a sys-
tematic census of all the children, they
will select from their classes those who
appear to be backward, or vicious, or in
any way exceptional"
After the consent of the parent is OBJ
apply to the superintendent Of public
schools for his approval, and then to
the chief medical inspector OF the pub
lie schools for physical examination.
The experts at the university labora-
tory will then study the children indi-
vidually.
Thru mental tests. such as the form
board" and the Binet tests, thru know
ledge of the child's family history and
mode of life, obtained by tactful So
cial worker in close touch with the
home, and thru any other available
source Of information they will seek to
classify the child according to his
mental needs and ability.
After having the pupil under direct
observation for some time, the psychol-
ogists will be able to determine whether
he should attend the regular school, re-
ceive special training, or be provided
for in some other way. The whole pur-
pose is to study the apparently excep-
tional child for his own welfare and
that of the school and community, SO
that he may develop to the utmost such
talents as he has, and if possible be-
come a useful member of society in
stead Of a social loss.
How we'll this will work out is, Of
course, to be awaited; but it does seem
to be step forward giving the individ-
ual child future usefulness somewhat G:
the attention now given to foals and
calves.
