SOME FIXING.
schools.

To take apart, overhaul, and make
over the whole educational system OF
the state was one job undertaken in the
legislative repair shop at Madison the
other day. Among the master me-
chanics who came forward to do the
fixing, appeared M. J. Cleary, ex oficio,
for the governor; T. G. Richmond and
E. C. Pierce of the home rule league
Ex- Congressman Murphy, and others
who seem to regard every forward step
along the path of progress as step
towards destruction. They favored the
Van Gordon bill proposing central
board of thirteen members, an admin
istration measure. Two educators,
Carroll q. Pearse of Milwaukee and
J. A. Keith of Oshkosh, spoke against
the bill. There is danger that under
its provisions politician might get his
hand on the throttle of public education
in Wisconsin.
In rallying their forces to drive
through the Van Gordon bill the friends
of the measure overdid the job. AS the
Democrat understands it, they went out
into the highways and byways and in
vited every man who had the least
symptoms of reaction come to Madison
in support of the bill. But only those
who had the disease in a violent form
accepted the invitation and appeared
and when they got together they were
too much of kind.

WISCONSIN SCHOOLS.

The New York Evening Post recently
sent man out to Madison to find out
how far reaction is likely to go in the
matter of public education in Wiscon :
sin. By Governor Philip he was in
formed that
while the higher institutions have
grown and have received liberal treat
ment, the common schools, and parti-
cularly the country schools. and still
more particularly the one room country
schools in the rural sections, the isolated
and remote sections, have been badly
neglected. and even sacrificed.
1t strikes The Democrat that this
New York newspaper man came long
way from home to learn something that
isn't so. OF course we have too much
respect for our chief executive to enter
tain the thought that he would inten-
tionally misrepresent the state before
the nation. What we do think is, that
Governor Philip has lived SO long in
what the late Patrick BARLEY of Bloom
ington used to call the State Of Milwau-
kee that he has lost his bearings
in regard to the common schools Of the
State Of Wisconsin. If the common
schools have been sacrificed by the
state, the people out here in the country
don't know it, We talked the other
day with man who for a quarter of a
century had been treasurer Of a country
school district; and he said that he
for the common schools nearly all it
could do under the constitution, and
nearly all it ought to do. Recently the
state stepped in and fixed a minimum
wage for teachers.
In every district where there are a
goodly number of children and good
school spirit it is an easy matter to
maintain good school. A small local
levy in addition to the income from
county and state, provides sufficient
funds. The chief hindrance to good
schools in this blue grass section of the
state is, that the farms are becoming
bigger all the while, and the number Of
children smaller.
The eyes of the nation are on Wis
consin. Let her people stand manfully
by her democratic free schools. By all
means keep them the schools of the
common people.

But the secretary halls from New .Jer-
sey and knows neither cowboys nor
ranch owners. He would like to re-
ceive an offer from any ranchman who
is ready to transform this Irish boy
into a cowpuncher.
These offers when received at the
war department will be forwarded to
the Dublin lad in response to a letter
sent by him to Mr.. Garrison as fol-
lows:
Dear Sir-I would be very thankful if
you would try and get me into the cowboy

ready to aid him in his ambition. The

Strong Support for Mr.. Wilson.

Springfield Republican The pres
ident's appeal for support of his neutral
ity policy, in his short address before
the Methodist Episcopal conference,
was no less conspicuous for being ex-
pressed in terms of such confidence
that the "boat rockers are in a small
minority. AS matters stand to day,
the evidence points to overwhelming
support of Mr. Wilson. The churches
of the country seem solidly behind him
when he receives the cordial indorse
ment of two dignitaries SO far apart in
an ecclesiastical sense as Cardinal
Gibbons of the church Of Rome and
Bishop Cranston Of the Methodist
Episcopal denomination.

A LESSON FROM HISTORY.

A remarkable story is told of Rev.
Patrick Bronte, father of Charlotte
Bronte who wrote Jane Eyre. When
power looms were first introduced in
Manchester the weavers broke out in
riots against their introduction. Mr.
Bronte tried to persuade them that they
were wrong: that the factories of Man
chester could not hold their own indus
trially unless they made use of the lat
est and best mechanical devices. But
the workingmen became the more en-
ragged, and determined to take their
minister life. Three men were select
ed by lot to do the work. These three
being Yorkshire men were very argu-
mentative; and so, when they way
layed Mr.. Bronte on lonely road after
night, and had him in their power, they
were not content to merely kill him,
but first undertook to convince him that
they were right and that he was wrong.
1t is said that his stout old Irish heart
never quailed; but, setting his back
against wall, he met them in debate
and discomftted them. He thoroughly
convinced them that he was right and
that they were wrong; and they let
him, forward looking man that he was,
go free.
Like unto the Yorkshire men of this
story are the reactionaries who are try
ing to make over the public school sys-
tenn of Wisconsin. They have President
Van Hise and other educators backed
up against the wall, and are complain
ing because the school men will not
meet them half way in their designs
So far the educators have the best OF
the argument; but whether their as
sailants will prove amenable to reason
is not yet disclosed. But the arguments
