LEONARD WOOD'S PLATFORM.

Gen. Wood has no oratorical gnc- ; es; he can not clothe platitudes ih < flowery words or use high-sounding ] language to conceal his true sentiments; his speech is of the direct, ; straightforward sort that carries , conviction to his hearers because it • is so obviously a sincere expression ' of his thoughts and beliefs. < The general’s speech ait Yankton, < S. D., on Wednesday was his most , extended utterance of the campaign < and was full of plain, practical ; American common sense. His < thoughts on most public questions < chime well, it may be believed, with !' those of the average citizen who ' < considers calmly and quietly the j problems of the day and perhaps■ J with those of certain other candi- ] < dates, but there was an element in * his talk that is not usually found in , political speeches. Few candidates ’ for public office, high or small, urge J the Golden Rule as a principle of < action, but Gen. Wood recommends ' it as a means of bringing about J more sympathetic and human rela- < tions between capital and labor. He * covers a good deal of ground in his < South Dakota speech, but he pre- < sents the same principles in briefer ’ form in a letter to a friend, which < is really his political platform, and ; the labor plank, the longest in the , list, is worth reproducing *in full. <

He says: “Relations between capital and la-bor—-between those who work and those who direct—must be on the basis of a square deal to labor and a square deal to capital; a wage which, with thrift and industry, will enable a man to live and save. We must provide the necessary machinery promptly to investigate conditions at issue in strikes and for making the same public. We can largely control these conditions through sound public opinion, but sound public opinion can not 'be created without intelligent and frank publicity. We must strive to increase the human element in the relations between employers and employes. We must see that labor has suitable working conditions. We must abolish child labor. We must give an honest day’s wage for an honest day’s work, and in turn labor must give an honest day’s work. We must not only let live but help to live.” What could be fairer or more comprehensive than this? honest employer or worker could ask for better conditions than these principles when applied would bring about? Gen. Wood also declares himself in favor of spreading the war burden of debt over a longer period of years than at present contemplated so that the strangle hold of excess profit taxation may be removed from business men. Good business, he adds, should receive all possible encouragement. This is a suggestion that will commend itself as a practical and sensible means of relieving the strain on business. There is no good reason why this generation should be handicapped by the necessity of paying the entire war debt. We are still paying some of the costs of the civil war and the country would, never have reached the great prosperity attained in the decades following that war if the debt, which was a trifle compared to the expenses of the government in the world war, had not been spread along into this century. Gen. Wood favors private ownership of railroads, a “small but excellent army and ever ready navy, a protective tariff sufficient to protect such industries as- need protection, the development of a merchant marine to aid our trade and our navy and a government budget system in the interest of economy. We should institute the most rigid government economies, he declares. We must see to it that there is no class legislation, and we must build up respect for law and order, the rights of the individual and the rights of property, “for everything rests on this.” Our international policy should be strong, dignified and conservative; we should “speak softly, but carry a big stick, love peace and the square deal, but be ready to protect American trade and American interests.” The above quotation from Theodore Roosevelt embodies the belief of many Americans and the platform outlined by the general would undoubtedly be indorsed by Roosevelt if he were alive. It is an expression of sound Americanism such as his name is associated with and it is a proof of the impress of his influence that many men and newspapers that had no praise for Roosevelt and even reviled bun when living are now supporters of Leonard Wood, a man of similar type, representing the same rugged, uncompromising Americanism. —'Indianapolis Star.

COUNTY EDUCATIONAL NOTES.

The Jasper County Board of Education met in regular session last Monday and transacted the regular business of the day. All trustees were present except Charles Wood of Milroy township, who has been on the sick list for a few days. The forenoon was given over to some new business, but the primary discussions centered around the minimum teachers wage for Jasper county. After a considerable discussion the matter was decided to be left open to each trustee. This will likely mean a scramble among the trustees to fill schools without much uniformity as to salary. The January session fixed the minimum for beginners in, Jasper county at $3.50 per day. The diploma examinations will be conducted in the different townships as follows: Barkley will hold examinations at Newland and Center, All eighth grade applicants from Mount Pleasant—taught by Mabel Kemper; Independence—taught by Edna Reed; Gifford — tanght by Ernest Shultz; Lewiston —taught by Mirs. Clarence Smith; and Newland—taught by Day Jordan .will take the examination at Newland. All other districts will write at Center. Carpenter will hold examination either at Remington or at some school in the west part of the township. Applicants should learn from Mr. Porter where he will hold the examination. Gil-

lam will hold examination at Gillam, taught by Mrs. Cynthia Houston Strong. Hanging -Grove will hold its examination at Banta, taught by Frances Folger. Jordan will hold examination at Egypt. Milroy will hold theirs at Banner, taught by Rosabelle Daugherty. Walker township will hold the examination at Walker Center. All townships maintaining a minimum term of eight months are excused from diploma examinations provided their pupils are promoted by the teacher in charge. This last pawvision was effected to prevent discriminations in such townships as Marion, Wheatfield, and Union. Wherever a semblance of junior high school is now existing the pupils are promoted from the schools without the conventional diploma examination. This is a partial step towards giving the ruralJbo^S^ and girls a square deal on this diploma examination subject. Any in Jasper county who is now in eighth grade can volunteer to take this examination at Rensselaer. This enables any child in Jasper county to take the examination regardless of the new situation made possible by townririps maintaining a semblance of junior high schools. The Newton townshin pupils will write in the high sch Ail auditorium

at Rensselaer. The board had planned to give a farewell dinner in honor of County Agricultural Agent Learning. Twenty-five or thirty farmers asked to affiliate in this matter. An elegant dinner was served at the Barnes restaurant to between forty or fifty persons which included twelve trustees and the farmers affiliating. After dinner the board and farmers retired to the office of the county superintendent where numerous speeches were made _in honor of their guest, who is leaving a host of friends in Jasper county. Those who spoke were: Frank Alters, Burdette Porter, Frank Welch, Joe Kolhoff, John Rush, Ed Lane, L. H. Hamilton, Russel Van Hook, George Parker, Winifred Pullin, Kenton Parkison, John Kolhoff, Alfred Duggleby, Ira Meador, Charles W. Postill, Percy Hauter, Livingstone Ross, Steve Kohley, Logan Wood, John Pettit, James Amsler and Warren Poole. The speeches were of the four minute type made by individuals during war times. They were all pointed and easily interpreted. Stewart Learning gave a closing talk that was very pleasing to the many who had-met to give him their farewell handshake. After the meeting the board reassembled to transact other business of lesser importance.
