THE PUBLIC SCHOOL.

l The prime object Of education according to every thinking per
 son is not to produce intellectual giants, but to produce men and
 women. By men and women we mean those who have hearts as we'll as minds; those who see beyond the material gain they may amass in this world and who build for the betterment oi humanity. It does not take 8 preacher or a philan thropist to
 do that It is every ones privi- lege.
 There are a great many boys ard girls who are unable to go higher than our high schools. Last year about fourteen million boys and girls attended our pub lie schools and about three per
 cent of that number/ graduated from our colleges and semina ries. Conse quently, it is neces
 sary that in our common school we should have the best there is. Every teacher should be fully Eequipped for the service in heart
 as we'll as in mind. Contrary to what great many people pro fess to believe, the contact be-
 tween the teacher and pupil has
 n much to do in tue holding of the latter's character. The world today is seeking men and women
 who are honest and upright.
 will not make them honest. It
 will not make them upright to
 be intellectual The training
 they receive must come from the
 persons themselves who know
 what honesty and uprightness
 mean. and who will, by precept
 as well as example, instill this idea into the minds and the
 hearts of their pupils. Patagonia
 is fortunate, indeed, in being so
 we'll equipped educationaIly. We
 have modern public school
 building and a most excellent corps of teachers, all working in unison for the common good of
 the town and community. and no
 doubt doing their best to instill into the hearts and minds of the boys and girls honesty, purity and uprlghtneSS. Let us then, as
 parents and patrons, visit the
 school occa asionally and endeavor to find out whether or not the children appreciate their oppor- tunities and are doing all that is in their power for self advance mente. We should also speak
 words of encouragement and also aDnrPciafiOn tO the teachers and
 let them know that we are per
 sonally interested in them and
 the great work they are per
 forming. It has been shown
 above that the majority of these girls and boys begin and end
 their education in the public school and for this reason should
 be given every help and en- couragement possible. - Santa Cruz Patagonian.

China Delegation
 Doubts Sincerity
 Of Jap Statement
rRepubIican A. p. Leased WIre1

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-Chinese delegation officials, commenting on Japan's announcement today on the Chinese proposals, expressed gratifi- cation but asserted Japan previously had declared her attitude toward China, based on such principles, but never adhered to-"
 We hope,'' one Chinese delegate said, Japan means what she says and will carry out those principles. 1t may be that Japan, giving eX- pression to them before a conference Of this sort composed of the great powers means what she says"
 The Chinese were inclined to re- ceiye with reserve the Japanese statement until a more concrete statement is forthcoming from the Japanese. based on the general prin- ciples enunciated. The Chinese said they were awaiting evidence of "Ja- pans good faith" before waxing en- thusiastic over the proposals.
 In some quarters with reference to Japan's assertion that she was not influenced by any policy of terri torial aggrandizement in China, II was stated China's conception ot what comprised China did not coin- eide with Japan's view. The prov ince of Manchuria was given as an example, the Chinese asserting China can never concede Manchuria or Mongolia as being other than under Chinese sovereignty.

 He illustrated by pointing out that the railroads do not expect to get as great . per cent of profit from a car of coal as from a car of silk.
 But MT. Gartner asked if the pro- posed reduction in transcontinental rates would not materially reduce the revenues on tonnage moved from the East and whether or not business the railroads expect to add from the pro- posed rates will compensate for the other loss. MT. Wettling admitted that there is doubt as to whether the railroads will get more than they might lose if the proposed rates are allowed when 1t came to the ques- tion as to just where the railroads would define traffic as added" un- Or Nr. Wettling's use of the term. It is clear, however, that the added tonnage, on which the carriers would give reduced rates is not that nov lng to. Utah or to Idaho or other Western cities Inland from the Pa- cific coast for that traffic is part Of the general traffic. which must bear the costs the other rates can- not yield.

ARMS DELEGATES WILL NOT SuRRE NDER NAVAL POLICIES
rRepubIlcan A. p. Leased WIre1


 WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-Secre- tary Hughes and his associates of the American delegation have no in- tention of surrendering to the naval experts formulation of any policies 10 guide American action in naval or other questions pertaining to the conference.
 It was made plain today that the function of the experts was strictly that of developing the facts. Deter rnination of policies on those facts is the reserved right of the civilians who make up the American delega- ton.
 Emphasis in this connection was laid today on the undeslrablllty or diverting attention from the main issue of the American naval pro- posals. the capital ship ratio plan. All o1,estions of proportions of aux Hilary craft. the place of submarines in the scheme of curtailment and similar items are looked upon by the American delegation as of secon- dary importance.
 For that reason the American at titude to resolute adherence to the s.fiye- e-five-three ratio" of the Amer ican capital ship plan has been em- phasized It is the main issue whlcn is still to be met, together with the ten-year building holiday and sup stantial immediate reduction In ton- mage already afloat. The announced intention of the Japanese delegation to seek an alteration of the ratio, however, is the only known stumbling block to this first, vital agreement so far as can be seen.
 In connection with the Japanese attitude the impression appeared to gain ground today that Admiral Kato, in announcing his purpose to seek a slightly higher tonnage ratio 1 for Japan, was prompted somewhat i by considerations involving home I politics. It was hardly to be ex- pected, some officers said, that he | could accept out of hand definite relegation of Japan to the short end of the five five three ratio' proposal without fight. Japan was said al ways to have looked toward ratio l Of 75 to 100 in naval strength as compared to the United States.

Former Nogales Clerk Is Guilty
 Of Ernbezzlernent
IRepublIcan A. p. Leased wIrel

MORALES, Ariz,, Nov. 19-W. H. Smith, former city clerk of this city, was found guilty by a jury in the superior court here tonight on a charge of embezzlement. The penal ty for this offense is from one to ten years in the state penitentiary. Smith will be sentenced later.
 Smith was accused of having ern- bezzled $1 1,125 from the city while he was city clerk Witnesses for the prosecution at the trial testified that total embezzlements by Smith would amount to thousands of dollars, all though he was tried for only the s1,125 item.
 The jury began deliberations at 3:15 o'clock this afternoon and re turned its verdict at $40 tonight. It was reported that several ballots were taken and that most of them were 10 to 2 for conviction.
 Smith took the stand in his own defense today. He not only denied the charge of embezzlement but also denied the Kidnapping stories told by c. P. Eidson of Beeville, Texas, and William Jack. justice of the peace of Douglas, who testified for the state. Eidson and Jack both had testified that they had been kidnapped early this week by Smith or his friends to prevent them from testifying against Smith.
 Smith declared that Eidson was taken to Nogales, Sonora, as a result of a frame up" between Smith and i Jack who had agreed to take Eidsor out of the state to prevent him from l testifying. He also declared that Eid- son was aware of the plans made by the defendant and Jack for the Tex | ans Kidnapping.
 and told story of the Kidnapping ltha- ] was very similar to that told by Eid. son yesterday.

 Belgium will unreservedIy favor the policy of the open door, She de- sires to see assured. to the industry and commerce of all the nations the possibility of sharing on a footing of complete and genuine equality the development of the resources of China to the greatest benefit of the chinese people and of all humanity.
 sShe has heard with satisfaction the statement of the representatives of the Chinese republic that that country is ready to apply the policy of commercial liberty in all parts of it's territory. This commercial liberty will not produce its full effect unless nationals of the powers obtain the rights and privileges which are a necessary condition of the full de- velopment of economic interests.
 Belgium, in accord with the pow CTS concerned, is ready to consent to . fair increase in the customs duties.
 "She will align herself willingly on the side of the countries disposed to accept the gradual abandonment of their rights of jurisdiction as soon as the Chinese government shall have completed the work that it has under taken and shall be in a position to give assurance of the many guaran- tees that the proper administration of Justice demands"

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1s.-Demo- crats in the senate moved today to unseat Truman H. Newberry, Repub- lican of Michigan, whose election fin 1918 is contested by Henry Ford, when Senator Walsh of Montana, submitted a resolution which, if adopted, would make the seat vacant.
 MT. Walsh announced that when the question comes to a vote he would ask that his resolution be sub stituted for that declaring MT.

the introduction of their evidence in support of the application. Repre- sentatives of the steel mills, the piano manufacturers and the producers of phosphate of lime testified that to give the carriers what they want will help both the industries and the rail- roads. They conversely said that II the railroads do not get fourth sec tion relief that the industries of the Middle West and the railroads will be in serious straits.
 Robert Hula, speaking for several Western subsidiaries of the United States Steel corporation, said that unless the railroads lower their rates to meet water competition that the Chicago producers of steel and steel products will be practically isolated from the Pacific coast markets. y The witness said that the coast to coast ships are offering rates as low as 50 cents per 100 pounds on iron and steel articles from both the At lantic and Gulf ports. The lowest rate now asked by the railroads in this application Is 90 cents per 100 pounds.
 Mir. Hula called attention to the competition in iron bars now being offered by Germany, saying that the mills of that country are now put ting their products on the Pacific coast at prices which the Chicago malers cannot meet. Whether that is a question of transportation or of tariff was not developed.
 Prefer Land Route Edward A. Lavelle, representing the piano manufacturers of the Mid
 dle West, stated that unless the pres ent water rate from New York is not met by the railroads that the Eastern piano makers will have ar l undue advantage in the Pacific markets. His attention was called to the water route open to the Chi
 cago territory via the Mississippi
 but answered that while pianos have moved that way, the manufacturer would prefer to have lower rail. rates
 and ship overland.
 Although the Chicago hearing. which concluded today did not allow for the presentation of evidence by intermountain interests, through theil spokesmen, MT. Gartner, w. $. Nc Martllt, H. W. Prickett and others developed a showing through crosi | examination of witnesses which indi cate clearly that their side Of th' I case will weigh very heavily whei 1 the scales of the commission itsel make ready a decision.
