A Trail of Blood

Last week in a courtroom at Clayton, Mo-, Ange-
10 Rosegrant heard a jury pronounce him guilty in
connection with the kidnapping of DR.. Isaac D. KEEL
ley prominent st. Louis specialist, in 1881, and
tiary.
This was the first legal conviction in the case,
but long trail of blood has marked the efforts to
bring the perpetrators of the crime to justice No
less than six persons are dead as sequel to the
crime.
Three gangsters implicated in the kidnapping
killed by police; negro charged with compile
ity turned states evidence and slain by machine
gun bullets fired from ambush; woman not econ
nected with the crime shot during raid to OBJ
tain evidence, and assistant for the prosecution
committed suicide.
The success which officers of the law have met
lately in running down kidnappers is most ecourag-
ing and should tend to reduce if not entirely eli
nate this particular species of crimnality Their eff
forts in this direction should be pressed relenessy
until gangsters convinced of the fact that kid
mapping does not pay.

Press Comment
Keep Schools Out of Politics

Mr.. e. M. Phillips, for many
years State Commissioners of Edu-
cation, recently resigned from the
office. The truth now comes out
that he resigned because the Far
mer-Labor administration deman-
ded that Mr. Phillips make a levy of
three per cent on the salaries of
the employees of the Department
of Education. The administration
has denied the charge
Last April Mr.. Phillips made the
following statement over his own
signature:
Tn January of this year de-
mand was made upon me to COM
NIT the salaries of all employees in
the State Department of Education
to 8 per cent assessment. fof
party support. I refused such COM
mitment, and was advised to give
my answer to the Governors pri-
vate secretary, Mr.. Vince Day.
II have learned that until this
year, 1884, no attempt has ever
been made on the part of the State
executive office to seek from the
State Department Of Education any
kind Of support, political or finan-
cial, for the political party in
power"
Are the people of Minnesota go
ing to allow our public school sys-
tenn to be dragged into politics,
We hope not. IF party members
volunteer to give three per cent of
their salaries to be used as a cam
paign fund, that is their own bus
mess, but when it becomes manda-
tory for all employees of the state
to contributed three per cent of
their salaries, or lose their jobs,
that is a different matter. We be-
lieve the voters of Minnesota will
vote to disapprove of such methods
