The New School Superintendent.

Ignoring the emphatically expressed
sentiment of the community and defy
ing the virtual injunction of Congress
the board of education of this District
has completed the work it began in
February last, and, refusing re-elec
tion of Supt. Thurston, has named his
successor for the ensuing term of
three years. Responsibility for this
course rests squarely upon the six
members who yesterday voted to put
ut the head of the local school system
another than the man who has won
the esteem of the people of Washing
ton and who today commands its con-
fdence and respect
For this course in thus proceeding
In direct opposition to the public wish
es and to the definitely expressed and
all but enacted recommendations of
the only legislature the District pos
sesses there is no immediate proven
tive remedy. The board of education
has the legal power to do this thing
and evidently has also the courage
Of its convictions, courage worthy a
better cause. That there will be a
sequel to this procedure there can be
no doubt. 1t is the confident expec-
tation that the work begun at the last
session of Congress will be resumed
and completed at the next and that
the board of education, that has so
aagrantly defed the sentiment of the
community and is so far from being
representative of its wishes and ideals,
will be legislated out of Office and a
new method of school administration
provided.
For the man chosen by the board
to replace Mr.. Thurston there can be
no other feeling than one of COM
miseration. He has accepted this post,
presumably, with full knowledge of
its difficulties, of the circumstances
leading to the vacancy he is to fill,
of the, peculiar character of the pres
emit board, and, it is to be hoped, of
the remarkably variant requirements
of board members in the matter of a
superintendent. If he comes unaware
of these facts, he has much to learn,
chiefly of an unpleasant nature. If
he is fully acquainted with the eordi-
tions he must at least possess a brave
spirit.
Dr.. Ballou will be given the best
Wishes of all for his success. If he
can administer the local school sys-
tenn capably and progressively, against
the handicap of an exigent board, he
Will have demonstrated the possession
of remarkable qualities, fully fitting
him for the post. The community will
not be disposed to visit upon him the
wrath it feels toward the board that
has committed the injustice just com
pleted, but rather for the sake of the
schools and the children, whose well
fare is of first consideration, will give
him the benefit of its fullest support,
in the hope of eventually bestowing
upon him its complete confidence.

SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.

Music in the Air.
There's music in the air,
1t sounds from far away.
Without sign Of care
Each band proceeds to play.
And yet the atmosphere
With discord is replete.
In vain we wait to hear
The harmony so sweet.
Performers whom we prize,
In brave attempts we see
But everybody tries
To hit a different key.

CARES Of NOMINEE !.
PUT ASIDE FOR DAY
(By Associated Press,

DAYTON, o., July 9.-Putting aside
cares of being presidential candidate
Governor James NJ. Cox, democratic
nominee for president. spent this af-
ternoon on a farm. his boyhood home,
36 miles from Dayton.
Newspapermen who trailed the
governor found him with his coat off
roasting potatoes and broiIing lamb
chops over a camp fire in a small ra-
vine.
Taking the intrusion of the news
papermen good naturedly. he invited
them to share the luncheon he was
preparing, but finding 1t would take
more potatoes, chops and sandwiches
than he had, he dispatched one of his
men to Middletown for more. Lun-
cheon was served later.
While the potatoes were roasting
and the chops burning the governor
answered many questions concerning
his early boyhood, which he spent on
the farm.
He also discussed many phases of
farming.
While sitting in the shade of large
willow tree, one of his thoroughbred
COWS came wandering up to have a
look at the democratic, candidate. The
governor said she Is milked three
times a day and gives two gallons at
each milking.
At the governors suggestion, the
pasture club" was formed. having
for its membership the democratic
candidate and the score of news writ
ers and camera men. Miss Marjorie
Wilson OF Cleveland, the only woman
reporter in the company. was unani-
mously elected president after being
placed in nomination by the governor.
