FRIDAY, MARCH ~, 1915.

In chosing Congressman Joseph T
Johnson to be federal judge for the
new judicial district in this State
the government at Washington has
acted with good judgment. Congress-
man Johnson is we'll qualified for the
position, both by training and by
native ability. He will preside with
honor to himself and with satisfac-
ton to the government.
We do not see cause to criticize him
for accepting the place, even though
recently reelected to Congress. What
he has done in that respect, men are
doing every day. Fact is, we believe
he shows good sense in accepting =
lifetime job, not under the constant
harrassment of parties every few
years. We do not blame him one
little bit for making the change.

4 WARNING

We hear a great deal said and see
large amount of writing upon the
question of education. | am not dis
cussing the question of compul Sor:'
education-that is another matter
but the question of education itself.
And by education I mean that pro-
cess by which the mental faculties
are developed and one is given the
abilit0 to marshall the forces of the
mind so that he is able to think
logically, rapidly and deeply. We
hear much of the necessity of cduca-
tion from the standpoint of citizen
ship. We are told, that an educated
citizenship il necessary to the we'll
being of the State. And that the
State may be able to reach its best,
the education must be general-not
for the few alone, but for the many.
All this is true. But there is ano-
ther aspect of the situation. We
must e3ucate our children or see them
chained hand and foot by the complex
and merciless business conditions
that are constantly growing more and
more tyranical. If present condi-
tionS go on in the direction of In
creasing severity as has been the
cas-" for the past thirty years, the
unframed man will stand no chance
whatever of success. A merchant
for tha+ of
today would utterly fail if he follows
the methods of thirty years ago. All
the while conditions have been becom-
ing more and more complex.
II requires now no small degree
Of skill to conduct legally organ
lied business, even of small proper
tions, upon strictly legal footing
If you doubt this, you have but to
examine the blanks that every cor
roration, small and great. had to fill
out this year. 1t required skilled
boOkkeeDing and considerable legal
knowledge to get through with one
Of those documents. The fact is.
business Of all kinds is so harrasScd
so hedged in by law and so heavily
taxed that it is becoming more and
more a difficult thing to successfully
conduct one of very humble dimen-
sions.
The day is not far off, it is already
here, when the unskllcd, the un-
trained man finds his way to success
in business blocked.
And the conditions are daily be
coming more acute, more complex,
more exacting. There is but one
hope for the business man of tomor-
row-education.
realize that this is not the high,
est grsund upon which to base the
plea for education, but it is, never
the-less one that brings it home to
all. 1t is hard to get away from the
"bread- and butter" question, however
much one may desire to walk with
his head among the stars.

LACEY REFUTBs CRITICISMS.

Some two weeks ago the Board OF
Internal Improvements submitted its
biennial report to the Governor. Ac-
complaining this report, were q num-
Der of recommendations and some
criticisms relative to conditions X
listing in some of the State institu-
tons. The report cast some rather
serious ASPIRATIONS upon the method
Of bookkeeping in the State Treasur-
=er's Office. Whereupon Treasurer
Lacy put in motion an investigation
on his own account and has completely
refuted every charge made in tbs
boards report relative to his Office.
He appeared before a joint meeting os
the Finance Committee and set him

ously defended the system in his Office.

the management of the same.
The committee had invited Treasur-
er Lacy to appear before it in a reso-
luton and he took advantage OF. the
opportunity to hit back. Armed with
p carefully prepared reply, supported
by facts and figures, he got right down
to the meat of the matter. He de-
clared that the report of the Board of
Internal improvements was not only
a reflection upon him, but on the Dem
ocratic party, and that he courted u
most searching investigation. Mem
bers of the board disclaimed any inten-
ton of rejecting upon the Treasurer,
they said, but, that official smiled de-
risively at the suggestion. He had
facts to sustain him contentious and
was in no mood for accepting apollo
gies. The committee will make
careful comparison of the two reports.
