FREAR STEPS OUT
AS PARTY DESERTEH
(Glenwood City Tribune)

The Spring Valley Sun man ought
to be happy. He made a written
demand on Jim Frear to come out
in the open and say which of the two
candidates for president he favors-
Coolidge or La Toilette.
We felt morally certain that the
Tenth district congressman would
ignore The Suns demand, and there
were those among the so-called polit
ical wise in the district who predict
ed that Mr.. Frear would go through
the campaign without committing
himself either to Coolidge of La
Toilette.
But Jim has fooled them. At Des
Moines, Iowa, last Saturday, address :
ing the state progressive convention,
Mr.. Frear came out unequivocally
for La Toilette and Wheeler and de-
nounced both Coolidge and Davis as
tools respectively of the House Of
Mellon and the House of Morgan.
As he has no opposition for re-
nomination, his Des Moines speech
will have no effect at the primary
to be held Sept. I'd, but at the cleo
ton Now. it may cost him a con-
siderable number of republican votes
which will be cast for Capt. Tom
provided of course that Ryan
get a sufficient number of votes at
the primary Sept. to put him on the
November ballot as the democratic
candidate.
But nevertheless and notwithstand
ing, there will probably be few bets
that Jim's shining dome will not
catch the reflection of the electric
lights in the house chamber during
the session Of the Goth congress.

SAVING PUBLIC SCHOOLS

To make the public school system
both elementary and higher educa-

to the American people, three things
are quite important.
First, extend industrial education
until about one-half the time is spent
on text books and the other half on
learning trades and making boys and
girls useful citizens.
Second, establish public school
savings system where every child
will learn as early in life as pos
