THE SCHOOL HOARD ELECTION.

rho importance Of the school board election
Tuesday should not be underestimate II Is
OF vast Importance. The world has no dSposi-
tlon to advise support ot any individual or
slate. II does not consider the election OF any
individual or slate 80 important ss that tho
board after the election, shall become in deed
and fact MS well as theory the directing head
Of educational affairs In this community. Tho
board should know what Is going on and It
should bring into strict subordnation to Its
judgment and rules the superintendent, prin-
opals and entire teaching staff
The conditions In the schools which have
como TO Hight since tho present campaign was
inauguratcd show that something is lamcntably
wrong. We arc ms unwilling 20 say that the
fault lies altogether with tho principals ms we
are that tho fault lies altogether with the su-
perintendent. 1t Is our judgment that tho
fault, in the last analysis, lies with the board In
not taking and maintaining close grip upon
tho conduct of tho schools.
We do not think II necessarily follows that
any individual should be dismissed from tho
schools. but We do think II follows that on the
board will fall the duty OF bringing order out
OF chaos and Of maintaining discipline among
its subordlnates. After the election Is over
thcro will he need OF sweeping investigation
In which no prejudice or preconcelved notions
should bo permitted to appear; with the sole
object OF improving tho schools and OF ade
quatey protecting the interests OF tho tax
payers; an investigation of conditions rather
than individuals.
We have tremendously expensive school
system. n It is necessary that we spend as
much money as wc are spending, then let us
do so; II not, II Il can be shown that other
cities even larger and with schools rating even
higher, are being administered with much
smaller budget, then Tulsa citizens are en-
titled to the economies by which this Ia made
possible.
The purpose OF this editorial Is to urge the
electors OF the school district TO approach the
ballot boxes Tuesday with minds free from
prejudice and bitterness and with the conscien-
tious determination TO vote for those candl-
dates who. In their mind seek tho best inter
forests OF the schools and the most free
from partisan attachment OF any kind.
Our schools are OF vastly more importance
than any personality connected with them. We
are paying out millions Of dollars to educate
youth creditably. not for the purpose OF
creating a vast property and system for any
faction to juggle with or intrigue with.
Vote Tuesday with but one thought In mind
what is for the best interest of the school
which candidate. or candidates. can be relied
on 10 take hold OF the present situation ant
whip At into disciplined shape without still
greater agitation, dissatisfaction and waste.

CLASS LEGISLATION.

The agricultural bloc is busying itself de-
sgning now laws for the special benefit OF the
farmer,
Some way cannot take legislation OF that
kind seriously. We recall the purpose OF the
constitution. to prevent class or vocational leg
islatlon, We still think the constitutional pur-
pose sound.
We cannot rid ourself OF tho conviction that
only general legislation should be enacted in
any country. Possibly the agricultural leglsla-
tlon will bring great relief to the farmer But
somebody must pay unjustly for that relief And
the precedent established. wo cannot see the
end. Every other vocation will demand pater-
nallstic attention. And get IT,
We think here is the grave matter with the

WAR AGAINST WAR.

What n fatuous idea II was that war could
be expelled from human relations by war, 1t
would be sensible and logical to assume that
one could stop the ague by catching a now sup
ply OF malaria; or. and such an idea Is abroad
IN the land that law can be enforced by It's
violations
The objective OF war Ia victory through sheer
force; tho objective of peace Is harmony
through tho universal application OF justice. IL
these are true definitions, then the world IL

Success With Alfalfa.

On his farm four miles east OF
Tulsa. Claude Bailey has studied
carefully several methods of growing
alfalfa, There Is one thing he is
thoroughly convinced OF, and that
is that barnyard manure is almost
necessary to the successful produce
tion OF alfalfa. With lots OF dairy
cows and other live stock. Bailey
has access to plenty of manure. He
states that he would not think of
sowing alfalfa without first applying
several tons OF rich barnyard manure
TO the acre. Last fall in preparing
land for alfalfa, there was a part Of
a field on which he spread straw In =.
stead OF manure. This part of the
field has a much smaller and more
sickly growth OF alfalfa than that
portion upon which manure was ap-
piled. In fact the line between the

AND ORDER

THE whole country has been shocked by the
brutal details Of the outbreak of violence
AZ Hcrrin, Illinois, growing out of the coal
mine strike, and by the Indifferent and in some
eases defiant attitude Of participants and local
peace officers toward the massacre that re-
suited.
Senator Bursum, republican, Of this state, aud
Senator Walsh, democrat, Of Montana, In con
che speeches, told the United States senate the
facts, and all the essential facts, about that SIT
uation when they said that both state and

WIN conhdence or view with tolerance, the
political doctrines Of La Toilette. The writer
submits a clipping Of a thoughtful editorial
from the Kiwsnis Magazine in support Of his
contention that pcrsistently following the old
way OF doing things means stagnation and that
progress comes mainly from undertaking new
things in new ways. That is admitted. Of

progress. this writer saws. "'means breaking
away from the old way" Again, of COURSE
But breaking away from the old way into some
thing better is far different from merely break
ing something.
The fathers az our country were radicals in
their day, beyond a doubt. They were step.
ping ont on n new way, but they knew fairly
well what they were Iehving aud whence they
were going. They had thought with some
care about the rout and the obiectives. They
were not hidebound. Also they were not blind
folded.
Men who pilot their fellow men successfully
into new wayy are ALWAYS careful that the route
does not lead into the ditch. That IL not being
hidebound il is merely being thoughtful Of
consequences.
With men Of the La Toilette type consc-
quences are matters of no concern compared
with the hulabaloo OF the moment and the re-
suit Of the election. Figuring on next morn
ine's breakfast for the crowd inspired to fur
nish the audience Of the night before is the
least Of their worries. '
