RURAL SCHOOLS.

When it comes to education it must be realized that none too great efforts can be put forward in its support, and it is important rlattadraUfG should be extended to all children alike as far as tt is possible That children in cities have greater and better opD0r- tunities in this direction must be re- alized and for that reason f. is a com mendabIe effort which is being made by Secretary Lane of the department of the interior in urging a nation wide campaign in behalf of better rural schools. This is not an entirely new movement for it has been frequently urged and the urging has had it's good effects There are today far better schools in the country districts be- cause of just such stimulation As in other lines increased attention t9 pre- vaiIing conditions has brought about Improvements.
 It will be agreed that agricultural interests require that children be brought up in the country and in or der to prevent them from bcing taken to cities where they will have better chances for an eduon-io # is ucces- sarv that the rural schools provide what is sought elsewhere. Because of the larger number in tla cities it may not be possible to pu- the c0uu- try schools on as high a level as those in large communities but every i'm prOvcment is to he welcomed and every step in that direction has it's good results. It is as the secretary in his report concerning rural schools says: An ambitious people will go where education can be had for their children. There is no sense in talk ing of the charms of country life and the independence and dignity of pro ducing from the soil if the school at command is no more modern than @ wooden plow."
 An awakened interest in better ru- ral schools is what is needed and it is deserving of widespread support whenever and wherever it is advo- cated.

THE WIL4ELMINA CASE.

New interest in an old case is ere ated by the action of the British prize court in awarding damages for the cargo of the steamship Wilhelmina. It was during the early stages of the European war that this vessel was seized in a British port while on it's way with a cargo of goods from this country to Germany. The seizure was only what was expected before it left these shores and it has taken some time to reach an adjustment of the claims of the American owners there of, but it is to be noted that the Brit ish judge before whom the matter was heard has rendered judgment in &C., cordance with the facts.
 The WiIheImina, which was owned in this country was released soon af- ter the seizure. Claims were present. ed for the cargo, which consisted of foodstuffs and not war material, and at the time an offer was made to the owners by Great Britain but it was not acceptable. It was not what the goods were worth and inasmuch as the British had received the benefit of them while keeping them oway from the enemy, it was insisted that a sum equal to their real value should be turned over to the shippers.
 This required an investigation. The goods were appraised. There was evil dence taken concerning them and the finding. which has just been made shows that the claim which was made against Great Britain at the time by the owners, amounting to practically $4O0, 900 was much nearer the amount to which they were entitled than the quarter of a million which was the extent of the BritishT offer. Nothing was therefore sacrificed by insisting upon their rights, and the British court has given evidence that it is dealing out justice in such matters, and in a manner which cannot fail to win approval from all neutral nations.

OTHER VIEW POINTS

The report from the state troops camp at Nogaies, Ariz., to the effect that canned beef thirteen years old, bearing the label Manila, Philippine Islands, 1903," has been fed to the Cal ifornia soldiers and probably to the men in Co. D of Bristol as well, resulting in an outbreak of ptomaine poisoning, is enough to make us all sit up and take pretty keen notice If it be true that patently unfit food has been fed to the defenders of this countrys rights and honor by men who, in so doing, took the risk, with open eyes, of permanent ly inCapacitating those defenders for the performance of their sworn duty, then there is only one word to apply to the proceeding. That word is-damna- ble.-HartfOrd Times.

The accident which resulted from a jitney driver ignoring the law regard ing passing a standing trolley, shows the necessity for the enforcement of a law which was created only after its need had been many times demon strated by serious accidents. Because this law has not been enforced in Meriden certain careless drivers had taken it for granted it would not be. The congestion which every city and even small communities have felt as a result of the ever increasing num- Der of motor vehicles and the large number of persons using the trolley in the summer, has mad the enforcement of the law necessary if life is to be conserved. Public opinion will back the police in enforcing the Iaw.-NIeri- den Record.

The worst that can possibly happen in any American school Is probably not nearly so bad as the extreme pa cifists fear.
