A New School System.

That the Danish folk high schools for
"grown-ups," which have made possible the re-
cent wonderful development in rural Denmark,
can be successfully transplanted in modified
form to the United States, is the conclusion
reached by II. w. Foght of the United States
bureau of education in bulletin just issued.
Mr. Foght has studied both the Danish schools
and American rural conditions at first hand, and
he believes that what the folkk high schools
have done for rural civilization in Denmark they
can do for the United States.
The place to introduce the new type of school
is the region known as the South Atlantic High
land, according to Mr. Foght, embracing all of
West Virginia, forty-two counties in western
Virginia, twenty-three in western North Caro-
lima, four in western South Carolina; twenty
five in northern Georgia; seventeen in north
western Alabama, forty-fve in eastern Tennes-
see and thirty-sx in eastern Kentucky. 1t is
not that these sections necessarily behind
other parts of the country in education, though

THE SHORT BALLOT.

Considering the widespread agitation
in favor Of more direct rule of the
people in the selection of candidates
for office and in all governmental af-
fairs, the apparent growing sentiment
in favor of the short ballot" is an an
omaly to say the least. And singular
Iy enough, the stronghold of the short
ballot" movement seems to be among
those most vociferous in their demand
for the direct rule Of the people.
AS The Miner understands it. the
short ballot as applied to the state
means doing away with the election Of
all officers except governor and prob
ably lieutenant governor. All other
state officials under the proposed sys-
TEN would be appointed by the gov
ernor, just as the president Of the
United States appoints his cabinet.
The idea Of the advocates of the
change is to fix direct responsibility
for the administration of the state
government and insure harmonious ac-
ton in the conduct of state affairs,
Following the proposed system to Its
logical end, II would mean the estab-
lishment of the same system In the
counties, probably in the form of
electing commissioners clothed with
authority to appoint all county officers,
or probably to elect only one commits
sioner who would occupy a position
similar to the governor of the state
with all other officers his appointees.
The change involves radical de-
parture from our governmental sys-
tenn and no doubt possesses features
of merit, but its practical operation
might prove that abuse of power Is
as easy under it as under the present
system. The present form of state
government has been in existence since
the adoption of the constitution and
IL should not be abandoned until II has
been demonstrated that the new sys-
tenn possesses superior advantages and
safeguards. LET the people rule"

BELGIAN RELIEF.

Wallace, with the assistance of her
neighbors in Mullan, Canyon creek.
Nine Mile and other nearby sections.
and particularly the employees Of the
mining companies, contributes nearly
$4,000 for the relief of the Belgian suf-
terers and also large amount of clo-
thing. Compared to the contributions
of other communities of corresponding
population, this is a remarkably large
contribution and not only reflects the
disposition to respond generously to
an appeal for relief which is charac-
teristic of the people of the Occur

give literally regardless of the stress

Mr.. Mack's editorial, and we submit
that his argument and conclusion
would do credit to the most ardent
protectionist:
The enormous quantity of articles

ain and other European countries, and
which the American people have been
buying year after year, often without
amy olstinct consciousness on the part
OF many, that these things came from
ABROAD, mas been an astounding rev.

Germany has been sending us cut

porceans. china, leather, lenses and
all kinds Of optical appliances, surgi-
4 cal instruments and other articles too
numerous to mention. What Is true
of Germany Is true in great and lesser
degrees of other countries, with due
allowance for the differences in pro-
duets peculiar to each nation.
ITO enable us to make them, and
insure the American business man
against the difficulties, uncertainties
and losses inseparable from starting

PROMINENT DEMOCRAT OUT FOR
PROTECTION.

The most significant uttersnce N
the tariff question of recent date
comes from Norman e. Mack, former
chairman of the democratic national
committee, through the editorial col
umns of his paper. the Buffalo Press.
The European war has brought some
facts home to Mr.. Mack which he re-
fused to recognize so long as they
were merely the embodiment of the
position Of the republican party on
the tariff question. Now he sees the
light and openly advocates another re-
vision of the tariff by the democratic
congress for the purpose Of giving en-
couragement TO the establishment Of
infant Industries for the manufacture
Of goods that we have been importing
and the supply of which is now cut
off by the war. His idea is identical
with that advocated by the republic
can party for so years, and of which
