FITNESS OF THE GRADUATE

An eminent mining engineer is inclined to think
that there is'a good deal in Edison's opinion about
the worthlessncss of a college education because he
finds SO manly of the engineering graduates with
whom he comes in contact entirely untitled for their
work. He says that they are apt to want to sh,,nl
work, especially dirty work, and to expect promo
ton after about the first week Of employment.
1t is quite likely that there is a good deal Of
truth in the statement. But the trouble is not that
the college education is of no value, but that the
young people have managed to slip through college
WITHOUT being educated, and without even laying the
for an education. x,> .y
The college education, is useful chiefly to those
who have the capacity*t to become. educated. There
arc a good many who have not that capacity, and:
where it is lacking it cannot be supplied. But for
the youth who has capacity, the we'll conducted
college provides training whose value has been too
often demonstrated to be questioned at this time.

tons. Suppose, for instance, that in a Sthree-cor-
nered contest such as that Of 1912, there should be
a fairly equal division Of delegates among the three
candidates, and instead ofgpassing the matter along
to congress, because of no candidate having a ma
jority, certain of the delegates should settle the
contest themselves by switching their votes to one
or other of the candidates.. we should have a truly
mesry time. The action would be quite legal, and
the president so chosen would be the lawful presi-
dent of the United States in spite of all that any
one might urge to the contrary.
The present method does, also, increase in some
measure the task Of getting a third party ticket
properly in the field. That it does not prevent such
action is demonstrated by the fact that we have had
q wide variety Of lsuch tickets represented on the
ballots in the past, C1reenback, gold. Democrat, Pop
ulist, Progressive, Socialist, Women's rights, and
what not. Candidates representing these and other
minor parties have been nominated, have had their
state electoral candidates named on the ballots, and
in most cases got very lar in the electoral cleo college IS
due to the voting habits Of the people, and not to
any defect in the, electoral machinery.
AS to the statement that the people have Moth
ing to say about the selection of delegates to the
national nominating conventions, there is nothing
i'll it, In very many Of the states these delegates
are elected by the direct vote of the members of the
party, and it can be SO in all the states if the people
wish it so. The existence of the electoral college
has no bearing on that phase of the subject. :

John Manamaker belonged TO that

John Wanamaker belonged TO that type which,
is termed "hopclcssly bourgeois" "nid-Victorian "
and so forth, by disciples Of The New Thought and
the New Way Of Doing Things. Presumably he
couldn't make sense'o cubist pictures or free verse.
He wore his hair short, and had the old-fashioned
habit Of paying his Bills. He was the husband Of
one wife, and had maintained that status for a good
many years without changing wives. He stood

Yet John Wananlaker had in his being d lot Of
the fibre that goes to giving strength and substance
to the human race. He tdicd sat the age of 81, and
from the time when he could understand what work
was, he had lived a life OF continuous industry. He
developed unusual business sagacity, not of the
kind which turns sharp corners and plays shrewd
tricks, but Of the kind which appreciates the waste
OF improvident methods and sees and applies the
way to remedy them. He was honorable in his deal
ings with his business associates, his competitors
and his employees. In his attitude toward the latter
he was human, and not patronizing. He dealt fair
ly with his people, and he expected them to deal
fairly with him. ~
With the weight of an enormous business upon
him, he was never too busy to take a keen and &C
tive interest in public affairs. He allied himself
with the political party which seemed to him to
haye the greatest possibilities of good. Without
personal ambitions of a political nature, he accept
ed an important office when it was urged upon him,
and to that office he brought the best that he had
and gave it freely to his country.
He had profound religious convictions which
he neither evaded nor tetnporaed with. He be-
lieved that religion, to be worth anything, must ex-
press ITSELF in right conduct, day, by day, and the
injunction ''Thou shalt not waS expanded in his
life into Chou shalt love the Lord thysGod, and
thy neighbor as thyself." N NJ
Practical, perhaps inclined to be'prosaic, he had
nothing Of the temperament which satisfies itself
with the dreaming # dreams, Nevertheless lie was
a man of vision. He looked forward to better con-
ditions in business, better conditions in industry.
better relations between man and man, closer com
,nunion between man and the spirit Of the Most
High. And his vision was not the less idealistic
because he strove. with a marked degree of success.
tosrealize it in his own life and in the world in
Which his eighty-four years were spent.

CHOOSING A DISTRICT JUDGE.

The Herald cannot speak with intimate per-
sonal knowledge Of County Judge Fred Jansonius,
of aFessenden, whose selection for the position of
district Judge of the Fourth district has just been
announced by Governor Nestos. AS the governor
points out, there are many men in the district
who would have filled the position acceptably, and
in shaking a selection the executive must have felt
an; embarrassment of riches.
A word of comment may be permitted, how
ever, not upon the appointment itself, but on the
governors enumeration of some Of the reasons for
making it. Judge Jansonius, it is stated, is a man
of. good legal knowledge, excellent professional
standing and high personal character. For several
years he has occupied the position of county Judge,
and as in his county that official has increased
jurisdiction he has been charged with the perform
ance Of many Of the duties which otherwise would
have been performed by the district Judge. He has
passed on evidence, listened to pleadings ana rem
dered decisions under the same forms Of law. which
govern the work of our district courts. And in
this capacity he has demonstrated fitness.
Under such circumstances this appointment is
simply the promotion of an official Of tested char
acter to a position Of enlarged responsibility. If
such considerations governed uniformly in the Sc
lection OF all our public servants we should have
little reason to complain Of the manner in which
our work as performed
