Once more the state is wanting

trict of Kansas is presenting the
name of Jess w. Miley of Girard

Tribune INDEPENDENCE.
1t is gratifying to the friends of
Jess w. Miley to know that he has
publican nomination to state super
intendent of public instruction.
Jess Miley is one of the best educa-
tors in the state and is especially,
equipped for the place.-Oberlin
Times.
Jess w Miley is a likable man,
trained in school work and appar-
emily possessed of that broad ex-
cd la Mt a the
practical school problems that
splendidly fit man for the re-
sponsible duties of state superin-
tendent.-Parsons Republican.
AS far as I have been able to
learn Mr.. Miley has the enthusiastic
support of most of the best school
men and educators of the state. !
think there can be no question but
that the only sensible wise thing
for those who oppose the present
state superintendent is to really
to the support of Mr.. Miley.-M. NJ.
Beck in The Holton Recorder.
Jess w. Miley of Girard is one
of the best educators in the state.
If he becomes state superintendent
of public instruction, there will be
an end to the strife eminating
from that office. He will be able
to work in harmony with other
educators and will not make the
public school interests secondary to
his fads and personal ideas on other
matters.-Mound City Republican.
Jess w. AIiley of Crawford
county, president of the State
Teachers association. has filed for
the present state superintendent
job. Miley is running on the plat
form that he will give his entire
time to the school business of the
state. He seems to have a strange
notion that a lot of trouble in this
world could safely be turned over
to the town constab BILE and the local
police.-Galena Evening Times.
Having always been more or less
interested in educational matters,
familiarity with good timber in that
field has constantly been in per-
spective; and the name of Jess w.
Miley has stood out prominently.
The fact that he was recently
State Teachers association indi-
Gates how he stands with the
teachers of the state, and the
teachers ought to know more about
desirable educational qualifications
than we other mortals do.-E1k
Falls Reflector.
Jess w. Miley's tact and admin
istrative ability are attested by the
manner in which he has met the
many and multiform problems aris-
ing in a county which stands fourth
in the state in population, leads all
counties in the number of teachers
under the supervision of the county
superintendent, exceeds all others
in the diversity of languages, occu-
pations and beliefs, and. whose
population in many sections is shift
ing, requiring superior ingenuity
and organizing ability.-Kansas
Union Farmer.
jess w. Miley has been leader
in the Kansas State Teachers As
ISOLATION. He now is president of
the association. an honor that
school men consider as worth while
as the state superintendency. His
platform is short-to work for the
upbuilding of the schools of the
state and allow the courts and the
law to look after statutes. Kansas
schools need just such a superin-
tendent, one who will pay atten-
ton to the job-and Mi.ey is that
kind, a man without fads and who
gets results.-Abilene Daily Re-
flector.
