DON'T MIND INVASION

The Chinese bandits who captured a number of foreigners, including some Americans, from a Shanghai Picking railroad train, still hold their prisoners and still threaten their lives.
 At latest accounts government troops were attacking the outlaws stronghold, just the course calculated to hasten the captives' murder.
 Foreign governments continue to exert strong pressure on the Picking administration and to threaten action of their own, but this again undoubt- edly would add to the prisoners peril not to mention the fact that foreign invasion, or anything else embarrass- ing to the government at Picking, is just what the bandits want.

SCHOOL AIIAIRs

When tho plan originated to have
 "suryey committee" go into affairs o
 schools there was considerable bitter
 ness displayed. Frankly there was
 tendency on the part Of some to sa,
 "well look into this business Of
 spending so much money for school
 matters" and on the part Of others
 opposed to this faction. "wc know al
 about the schools and no Investigating
 committee can tell us anything" But
 as the work Of tho survey committed
 has gone on for these two months fre'
 qucnt inquiries have brought out tho
 fact that there was greater harmony Of feeling between the school people and the survey committee than was expected would be possible This word has como directly and the last per sons one would think would voice a reflection of such harmony have done so.
 This is the condition that was sought if results were to be accomplished. It was so stated in these columns No body of men whether investigators or Investigated, knows 1t all" Con- structive, not destructive criticism, is always valuable and Is valuable even though the suggestions made are not followed. New viewpoints are opened up; matters are considered that might never have been mentioned. Open dis cussion is good If our theories of gov ernment are good at all. If, from the first, this whole matter could have been considered not as a fight but rather as a search for improvement made with the interest Of the city and especially it's children at heart, even better results might have been &C., complished.
 If this spirit of honest criticism still pNevails at the meeting tonight when thevreport of the survey committee is to be presented, and if it is met by an honest attempt to explain any oppo- sition to that report-if in other words, critics and defenders meet in sane. quiet debate without bitterness the work of the survey committee will have been worth while if only to show possible improvements which, how ever, are not adopted because they are met by convincing arguments against them.
 The general points that will be Of the most interest probably, will be the suggestion concerning the new build ing commission that it is proposed to be created, and the general policy Of adopting the one-story school house for the future. The public has the report of the survey committee giving it's reasons for advocating these things before it. The criticisms of these l plans have not been heard in full u IS liHDOSSlpIt u JuuEf oii Nh'''N matters until the evidence is in and | the arguments for and against have been heard. It is to be hoped that th ose arguments for and against will be presented tonight, sanely free from rancor or denunciation, to the end that wise decision may be made as to the future policy regarding the schools We have splendid system in this city and it must be continued. That is the important point. How to do this, whether by adopting the in- suggested or by carrying on under the old plan, with freedom to make changes as their wisdom ap- pears, is the matter to be decided, and such decision will be the right one only if wise, fair and calm dis cussion, with time for consideration, results from the work that has been
