DENMARK'S UGH
EDUCATIONAL RANK
As Compared With That of the
United States in a Report
Just Filed.

Washington, Dec. 4.-Only one per
son in every thousand in Denmark is
unable to read and write, compared
with seven out Of every thousand in
the United States. This fact is dis
closed in report today by H. W.
toght of the federal blireau of educa-
ton of his investigations of school
conditions in Denmark. 1t is shown
also that of 260,00O Danish CHILDREN
of school age, only 37O failed to at
tend school during 1911. Mr.. Fogh;
declares that compulsory attendance
upon school between the ages OF seven
and fourteen is so strictly enforced iii
Denmark that "the few who persist in
avoiding Iheir legal responsibilities,
are punished so severely that they are
glad enough to change their minds"
The people are so imlbued with the
value of education, he says, that they
will 60 to any extremity to keep their
children in school. -..
The secret of Denmark's high place
in educational affairs, according ITO
Mr.. Foght, lies in the hold which the
teacher has upon the entire people.
The teacher has high social rank, is a
leader in both church and state, and
is invariably pensioned for disability
or age.

SUFFRAGE VOTE
/. NOW. VERIFIED
Phenomenal Vote Cast to Decide
Suffrage Question Is Check
ed Up.

The fact that the suffrage question
leads all others, as we'll as all candi-
dates for any one office in the election
returns, is causing considerable dis
cussion inasmuch as it is an unusual
condition.
The report that it lead the suoerna-
torial vote by 251 was a surprise, but
it now develops that it leads the U.
S. senatorial vote by 2,247. Upon
first thought it hardly seemed possl-
Bile and was thought to be a mistake,
but the detailed figures submitted
herewith by counties show the con-
ditions that prevailed in all quarters
Of the state.
There is much speculation as, to
how this came about, for it hardly
seems possible that voter would vote
on the suffrage question alone and
fail to vote the regular ticket, but
this certainly was the case.
All other measures which We're vOt-
ed upon received votes ranging in the
sixty-odd thousands, while suffrage
drew S9,557 both for and against. The
vote for governor lotaled up $4,000,
while the u. S. senatorial candidates

WORK ON RIVERS
and HARBORS BILL
Rivers and Harbors Committee o1
House Now Framing Leg
islati0n.

Washington, Dec. 4.-Work of fran.
ing a rivers and harbors bill for the
coming session was begun yesterday
by the House rivers and harbcrs com
mittee with estimates before it from
the War department, asking for ap
preparations taggregating between $40,
100000 and $50,OO0,0O0 for waterway
improvements. These estimates do
not contemplate any new projects.
The PLAN to eliminate all new pro
jects from the proposed bill and to cur
the amount down to a minimum will
it is expected, procipitate a vigorous
fight in the committee as we'll as later
in both houses. Some committee
members today predicted that whcr
the measure finally is reported to the
House it probably will not carry ap
proprations to exceed $30,O00,00O OF
$35, 100000.
The biggest project contemplated il
the improvement of the Mississippi
river.
The Mississippi river commission
recommended that $12,000O0O be ap
propriated for improving the Missis
sippi river from the head of the passe!
to Cape Girardeau or Rock Island bu
this was cut in half by the army en-
gineers in their recommendations t(
Congress. A still further cut Of 81,
100000 or so is possible in the com
mittee. This appropriation woul(
cover, according to the pending plans
S3,OO0,000 for construction OF levee'
up to Girardeau or Rock Island; 5000,
600 or $75O,O00 for dredging and aG
ministrative expenses and the re
mainder for revelment or the rivel
banks to prevent caving in. 1t i:
likely that the bill will carry a pro
posal to have the appropriation fo1
ievees' applicable as far north as Rocl
Island.
S~veral million dollars are con
templated in the estimates for i'm
proving the upper Mississippi from
teh mouth Of the Ohio to the mouth o
the Missouri and from there to ST
Paul. Approximately $1,5O0,00O il
