1t is with pardonable pride that
the Blade present to its thousands of
readers the likeness of one who has
by his own efforts, strict application,
fidelity and straight forwardness,
virtually lifted himself from cellar
to garret in the ecclesiastical world.
If there be any reward for hard and
faithful work; if there be any re-
warl for patience, endurance, and
perseverance, then to the visitor (Rev.

CAMPAIGN

Among other things that will be issues ir
the campaign upon which we are entering
viii be that OF the prosperity of the country.
The Democrats have been making a grea'
ado over the alleged statement that there was
never SO much money in the United States as
at the present time, even though no one seems
to be able to get hold OF it aside from the own
crs of the mrnition factories and the big cor
porations, including the banks.
In the meantime, with this glowing prospe-
rity, the war tax continues to be in style and
We are forced to pay the same tax on the same
things that We were forced to during the pro-
gress of the civil war. 1t seems a little out
of the ordinary that this s%o-called war tax con-
tinues when we are outside the pale of the war
zone.
The expressions of Chairman Harding. of
the Chicago convention, struck deep into the
hearts and consciences of those who heard and
those who read them.
His description of the money, just now so
abundant in the United States, was, gold
5luiced from the river of blood.
His prayer that God forbid any of us to

torn AWAY that ocean bulwark," behind which
we have so long hidden and which we have be-
licved furnished absolute protection.
We have now to reckon with a new style OF
foe. 1t will be possible for a foreign enemy
to dispatch hundreds Of great submarines
across the Atlantic and the Pacific, appearing
suddenly on our shores without warning but
capable Of terrible destruction
This mystic vessel passed the Virginia capes
and was not even suspected. 1t came into
port un1craldccl and unbclicycd by the off
cials Of this country.
1t recalls "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under
the Sea which was read by thousands of in
tcrcstcd and sccptical people when Jules Verne
gave that story life.
No one regarded it as other than a thing of
fancy and one that could never become real,
and yet after these. few years this under-sea
vessel has cone to our ports a genuine reality.
No wonder that Captain Cooke on board an
american vessel called "What craft is that"
a, the strange marine curiosity showed itself
ior the first time; or that he responded "The

POLITICS AND THE SCHOOLS

State Supcrinten lent White certainly STIR

i,rtic office now held by Prof, White himself,
u,,n on a political ticket and alter a bitter poll
rcal tight.
The latest protest comes from Superinten-
dent, OF County Schools for Eddy county, w.
\. Puore, who gives voice to the general feel
ing that the teachers Of the state have a iull
and unbridlcd right to give expression to their
choice as have any other persons in any other
profession. White has gone to an unexcusable
limit in the matter Of the action Of the teachers
of Quay county in the endorsement given Prof.
]. II. Wagner. This action was not taken in
the institute, but at the meeting of the county
teachers association held afterward.
They are giving expression to their midi
vidual choice as a right accorded every in
dividual in the state.
No one is more Interested in having a COM
potent official in the chair Of the chief OF the
school bureau, than the teachers themselves,
and there should be no abridgement Of their
rights.
1t is not a question Of politics in any sense,
a choice Of individuals for public position.
This question of individual preference * one
