he will get a vote in this city. If
he "breaks even" everywhere else
in the county, Hibbing will bury him
so deep that all the stean1-shoyels
on the range will not handle pound
of iron ore in year if they attempt
to dig him out.
Hibbing is not the only town in
the county that has felt the heavy.
hand of the oppressor as applied by
the people-elected au1itor. There
are thousands who are praying that
he get into the race, and thus give
them the satisfaction of being in at
the killing.
Even Duluth has awakened to the
rottenness that has been cooked up
and ladled out of the. county audi
tors office, with Halden as the chief
cook, and it, too, is waiting to join
with the people in other parts of the
county in the elimination program.
.Halden has always been bundle
carrier for the Fat Boys, but it was
| not until the big offensive against
Hibbing was staged that his nefari-
Gus practices became generally

Our schools are going to be radi-
cally reconstructed; we cannot 60
on the basis that has been laid
down. A good many pin heads
have gotten hold Of sections Of
the new things that are going to
come in and that, when kept in

some lessons and exercises where
playing birdie in the garden
would be a good thing and might
bring satisfactory results. If, how
ever, such a thing as that is in
troduced as general school ex-
ercise for all teachers to follow, it
certainly would be a farce and a
failure.
Elm cleaning up a school system
properly, one trouble is that the
patrons, themselves, neither are
sufficiently posted on sound edu-
cational theory and practice nor
are sufficiently interested in their
own schools to take any intelligent
measures to see that they are prop
erly run. Interested persons and
the Big Interests who want GER
tain things done, or want certain
people to have jobs, take the pains
necessary to get control and to
use the. schools for those pur.
poses. The only thing to do is
to keep up a sane explanation of
the situation and Of the basis on
which the schools ought to be run
and the results which the schools
ought to achieve, and trust that,
some day, the people will come
through and understand the sit
uation.'

SOME COMMON FAULTS IN
OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

\ A correspondent who IS an edu.

with deep interest the conditions
and course of affairs in connec-
ton win Duluh's public schools,
writes:
'sThe situation surrounding your
schools and school board in Du-
luth, is common one in cities.
The Big Interests want their
clutches on the schools for their
own reasons. Any kind of dub
can get a job as superintendent
and any kind Of dub can keep
the job if he will be obedient to
the influential powers in the city.
The more of a dub he is, the more
likely he is to keep the job, pro-
vided he can put up a fairly good
front or has someone who. can do
it. for him.
Vocational education is one f
the important new things and a

RATHER OVERRIDING THINGS

Our county superintendent of
schools seems to have gone more
or less bugs in this patriotic zeal,
if all reports are true. q
The story is to the effect that he
discovered seditious sentiment in
the little rural school at Markham,
the teacher being affected along
with the others, and he showed his
patriotism, for publication, by or.
dering the school closed.
That's probably his idea Of a
cure.
There is said to be some disloy.
atty in the settlement, and it ap.
pears that the county superinten.
! dent is doing all he can to foster
| it.
The better way would have, been
to have replaced the teacher with
one that would have combatted
the disloyal sentiment prevalent
in the school and in the commun
lily, which might easily have beer
done by a proper course of teach
ing and work in the neighborhood
By closing the school the super
intendent removed the only means
lin the settlement for intoxicating
loyalty and patriotism into the
minds of the children, and his &C
ton appears to be open to severe
criticism.
There are other ways of teach
ing loyalty than by means of {
club or an over-zealous official.
