COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT:

The national bureau of education
recommends that the county be MADE
the unit in school control except in
New England where the township
plan is reported TO work we'll.
According 10 a. c. Monahan, author
of q bulletin just issued. the county is
the unit OF supervision in at least
thirty nine states OF the union. and
some form of county control OF schools
is now found in eighteen states. Com
pairing county control with district
and township control. the county unit
seems TO have most 10 commend It."
says the bulletin. altho the district unit
is stin the most common form of con-
troll for the country at large. The dis
trict unit Of organization is in pr-ac-
yice in twenty eight states.
Mr.. Monahan's investigation shows
that county control has been adopted
by most of the southern states. while
the district is the unit of organization
in most of the states west OF the Mis-
sissfppi river.
In the New England states, where
cities and Incorporated towns are in
Guided in the township. and where
/ the township IS the unit Of local tax
alton and local government in nearly
all civl affairs, township control has
proved very satisfactory
Where conditions are not exceptional,
as IN New England, Mr.. Monahan finds
that county control recommends itself
because it is already the unit OF super
vision in most of the states. il gives
| the schools better support by giving
the entire county the benefit % taxes
paid by corporations such as railroads;
il gives the schools better teachers
with better salaries, vet the schools
aer run more economically; it removes
the school from unwise local Influences
and gives opportunity for the selection
OF teachers from wider range and
upon their merits; II injecrs business

THORNE AND GOvERNORSHIP.
Nevada REPRESENTATIVE

Nevada Representative
Clifford Thorne, the present railroad
commissioner. is getting himself talked
about quite a little as probable can
didate for governor in 1916: but so far
as we observe the talk is mostly lack
ing in cordially. The truth about Mr..
Thorne is that he is specialist in the
matter of transportation but that he has
never impressed anyone that we know
of as being a man of at all versatile
talents such as people naturally look
for in a governor. Folks who agree
most heartily with Mr.. Thorne as to
transportation questions are likely to
take good deal more stock In Attor-
ney General Cosson as candidate for
governor, while people who might be
instinctiveiy opposed to Cosson would
undoubtedly be opposed to Thorne also.
We are not particularly impressed
therefore with Mr.. Thorne's guberna-
torial prospects, but we do gather the
idea that in his maneuverings for gov
ernor he is liable TO impair his useful
! ness as a railroad commissioner. He
| has been very active as a commission
! er. and while his judicial quality in
| that office may be open to debate 1t Is
cutor Of railroad rates Is not open to
debate, and the most voluminous and
most important part OF the work OF a
railroad commission is looking after
| the interests of the state before the in
| terstate commerce commission. In 9TH
er words, Mr. Thorne is distinctly use
| full in the railroad commission, and
there are lots of people who would not
seriously consider him for governor
but who do appreciate him where he Is
and who will regret to see his activities
diverted into the field Of strictly po-
litical ambition.
