gested and is being managed by hundreds of
thinking men from every portion OF the state

people of the state, and who will inaugurate
business methods and business principles into
every department. of service. He has spent the
better portion of a useful life in South Dakota

duties, and will make one of the best Governors
this state has ever had. We want you not only

South Dakota needs a business man for Gov
ernor. In e. D. Morcom of Sioux Falls, we have
a man whose lifelong training has been along
business lines. If elected Governor, Mr.. Nor
com would seek to put an end to the adj
ministrative wastefulness which has become SO
acute an issue with the taxpayers of this state.
He will appeal not only to all the members of
the Democratic party of this state, but also to
that large and increasing element of our popu-
lation who desire good government more than
party success. If elected Governor of South
Dakota, E. d. Morcom would give to the people
a business administration in place of the extrav-
agant political administration which have pre-
vailed in recent years.
He is a progressive democrat, belonging to
no faction of that party and will be directly re-
sponsible to the people of South Dakota for his
acts while Governor of the state. If you are d
Democrat it is your duty to give your support
to a man who has the ability, the nerve and the
determination to put the affairs of our great and
good state on a business basis. If you are not
a Democrat it is as much your duty to join hands
with the common people in this great movement.
It is a business matter instead Of political mat
ter. 1t is for your welfare and the future good
and welfare of the people of this state that poll
tics should be forgotten and that our state
affairs should be conducted in a thoroughly
business-like manner.

charge of a principal whose time has
been devoted to the supervision Of
the teaching in the building and also
problems of management of the build
ing. This has been equally true with
the Lincoln school.
1.-THE thing which made it essential
that the board plan to reorganize the
supervision work in the elementary
grades was the fact that during the
summer an additional elementary
school will be constructed 1t is ex-
pected that the new elementary school
will be a smaller unit than any of
the present elementary schools.
1.-The matter of cost entered into
the plan of reorganization to some
extent. School boards and admins
traitors throughout the land are giving
proper emphasis and attention to the
economic factor in education This
is not done for the purpose of stint
ing or limiting educational opportuni-
ties for boys and girls, but rather for
the purpose of securing wise invest
ments. With the addition of the new
elementary school, the supervisiOnal
cost of the elementary grades for the
next school year would amount to ap-
proximately $4,000. Now, it would be
impossible to invest this $500 in the
supervision of teaching. This is be-
cause of the fact that the building
principal is necessarily required to
devote a good share of her time to
routine matters of building manage
ment and to a certain amount of
clerical work that must be accom-
plished in each building to give def
niteness and system to the organiza-
ton of the schools. This makes it
evident that of the $500 invested
particularly for the improvement of
instruction results a large portion of
it would be invested in clerical work
and problems of routine relative to
building management. 1t is at this
point that the factor of economy be-
comes insiatent 1t cannot be ig
nored. 1t is not a good economic

school, has been rendered the position
of supervisor of elementary education.
Speaking of the system yesterday,
superintendent Blue said:
"In regular session, the board of
education voted to make a change in
the plan of organization pertaining to
the elementary grades of the Twin
Falls schools The plan of element
airy organization that now prevails in
the local schools is that wherein the
supervision of instruction in any ele-
mentary grade building is given over
to the building principal who is also
the administrative head of the build
ing.
1.-THE new plan of elementary or
ganizatiOn will place the work of SUI
pervising teachers and improving in
struction results in the entire ele-
mentary system in charge of one in
dividual, while the clerical work and
routine management of each grade
building will be placed in charge of
a principal. who will devote the
greater part of each day to teaching.
In addition to her teaching, the build
ing principal will have definite office
hours during the school day when she
can meet pupils, parents or wagon
drivers take up matters of discipline,
handle problems relative to the man
agement of the building, and look to
other routine and clerical details that
pertain to her office. The organiza-
tion in the building will be such that
the principal will have charge of no
room, but will meet her classes in a
room used only for the purpose Of
recitation. Should any matter arise
that would need the immediate at
tention of the principal, she can send
her pupils to their room, while she
will be free to devote herself to the
problem at hand. The building prin-
cipal will have nothing to do with
the supervision of teaching or prob
lens pertaining to the improvement
of instruction results.

COMMITTEE BUSY
ON RESOLUTIONS
Work Of Body Apparently to Be One of
Elimination Instead of ConStruc-
ti0n-AII Have Planks.

Chicago, June With the members
Of the committee on resolutions all Sc
lected by their delegations it is be-
coming evident that the work of the
committee as a whole will be one of
elimination rather than OF construc-
ton. Almost every man on the COM
mittee has planks of his own making.
The general purpose of the leading
members of the committee is to have
the party declarations such as will
meet the demands of Colonel Roose-
welt and his followers, and therefore
they have made close study of the col
onels recent utterances on prepared
ness.
Senator Smoot, who although he is
not a member of the resolutions com
mittee is in close touch with what is
being done towards framing the plat
form said:
We shall declare for navy that
will be a real protection both in size
and efficiency and up to the latest re-
quirements, and for such other mill
tary measures as will meet the de-
mands of all emergencies
The Roosevelt idea on preparedness
will, it is thought prevail The COM
mittee also will go far toward meeting
Mr. RoOsevelt's views on the question
of national distinctiveness and there
will be strong declaration for Amer
icanism at all times, at home and
abroad There will be no condemna-
ton of theso-called hyphenated Amer
lean in exact terms. but" as mem
Der of the committee said. at will be
possible TO read that language into the
document"
In addition to the platform work by
delegates on the ground it became
/ known that DR.. Nicholas Murray But
| Ter, of New York, and member of the
New York delegation has been giving
much attention to the party declara-
ton and is expected to arrive tenor
row with the complete draft of a plat,

A distinguished southerner, who ap-
parently had been hugging the mahog
any the greater part of the day, cor
nered Mr.. Hubbard in the lobby of the
Congress last evening, placed his
arm about his neck and told him how
bad he had wiped the earth with
his opponent in a recent congressional
election in the Lone Star state. Hen
ry tried to protest that he was not the
man his friend thought him to be, but
it was no use, and Henry, being sober,
as his natural condition, saw the hui
NOR of the situation, and permitted
the Texan to rave. During the raving
he slipped several cigars into Henry's
pockets, and gave him invitation to at
least dozen affairs of social nature.
all of which were thankfully accepted
by Mr.. Hubbard
