TEACHERS AS MOTHERS.
rCedar Rapida Republican

In New York they have made a big
rumpus in the school board because
one or two teachers during the past
year have asked for leave OF absence.
In order that they might have time to
bring their children into the world In
at least partial quiet and seclusion.
The school board has suspended such
teachers and even reprimanded them
for such an indiscretion. We are told
there are 1900 teachers in that city
who are women and only 1900 OF them
are married. The school board does
not seem to think much Of married
teachers and 1t thinks very badly Of
those who follow nature far enough
to bear children. The school board
seems to demand sterility on the part
Of those 1900 married teachers. In
other words 1t Is trying to compel
them to practice infanticide, in one
way or another. The teachers have
been fairly obedient to this spirit Of
the school board, only sixteen having
borne children during the past few
years
The whole New York situation is a
! travesty on common sense, and on the
rights and even duties OF women. I'm
doubtedly a school teacher who asks
lCT leave VI dUSSNCc 10 DIlnX q c0lIQ
into the world upsets matters some-
what and the school board may rather
be rid OF such women in the teach
ing force. Or 1t may even be better
for the woman not to teach any more,
but to devote herself to her Offspring,
But women can not always choose.
They sometimes have to help support
| the families to which they beloag.
That such IL the case is a reflection on
New York men, or society as organ
lied, but 1t is a fact that has to be
considered, nevertheless. A school
board can not very well demand that
1 $4,000 women shall forego their func-
lions in the scheme of nature. Some
common sense solution OF the vexed
problem ought to seem possible. In
France, we are told, there is a provision
made for such cases and the teachers
who honor the state by bearing chill
dren are not only given leave Of alb
sence but they are continued on ths
pay rolls OF the schools. But In France
they nave learned the worth OF babies
and they are encouraging ali who ar,
willing to help keep up the supplies. II

STAMPING FOR THE TOWN.

dubuque Times Journal
A fine illustration Of the independ-
ence and fairness OF the average news
paper is found in q recent edition OF
the Clinton Herald. Down ut that city
youth, comparative stranger In the
city, was wantonly assaulted and badly
beaten by gang of young roughs,
three of whom happened to be men,
bers OF the championship football team.
At the time of the assault the football
players were idols in the community.
The local team had beaten all comeN
and We're touted as contenders for the
national high school championship.
They were petted and pampered ana
coddled and dined until they no
doubt gained the impression they
could commit murder or arson and be
applauded by an admiring populace.
But they received a rude awaken
ing when three members Of the team
committed an unprovoked assault on
an inoffensive boy from a nearby
town. Instead Of smoothing the az
fair over with q remark that boys
youths case and demanded his assail-
ants be punished. And for good
measure the editor of the Herald

WEST TELLS PLANS
SETTLERS LISTEN TO GOVERNOR
REGARDING PROPOSED
NORTH CANAL PROJECT.
System of state and Federal Cooper
alton As suggested by states Ex-
eutivc Finds Strong Endorsement
Among Residents Reclamation
Service Willing to Join.

BEND. Ore, Jan. 19.-Settlers on
the Central Oregon Irrigation COM
pany's segregation Saturday listened
to Governor West outline his plan for
the state and federal government TO
take over the North Canal project and
strongly indorsed it. At Redmond he
addressed large crowds.
The Bend meeting was preceded by
q banquet rendered by the CONNER
cial club.
The plan OF the governor is for
state and federal cooperation. Letters
were read by him from the reclama-
ton service showing a willingness to
join with the state if the project was
deemed feasible. Mr.. Vests idea is
to make the s45O,0O0 Tumalo appro-
priation a revolving fund, SO as not
to burden the taxpayers.
BY the end of this year settlers on
the Tumalo project will have given
ia the state first-mortgage notes to-
falling this sum. These the governor
would have turned into the school
fund and have the legislature approve
N'it usS VI bilt liiuS
for taking over and completing the
North canal
The governor learned that the SEN
timent Of the settlers was that what.
ever sum might be paid the company
for the dam ana canal should be so
handled as to give relief to those who
have bought land under the Genital
canal project and have been unable
TO get title.
In his Redmond address Mr.. West
said all that he had on his mind these
days is trying to keep booze out OF
some places and get water into 9TH
ers,' Judge McNary of the supreme
court. expected to accompany the
governor to central Oregon, but was
detained by court business.
