DIG FROGS
Some of these days the great Amer
ican middle clans Is ftoingt to rlne In
Its might and swat all the big frogs
In little puddles who feel the im
portance of their position. Hardly a
day goes by but some evidence may
be secured showing where some man,
supreme In authority In his own lit
tle bailiwick, puts his foot down on
noine public Improvement because he
was not confiulted concerning all the
little details. Small men like to be
consulted, and are hurt and peeved
when It Isn't done. ,
Take, as an example, the case of
the major of Chadron. lis. In com
mon with the members cf his coun
cil and the cltliens of the town, wera
wild for a city manager. They got
a good one in Rayburn, who saved
them almost the full amount of a,
year's salary in the first three
months of his Incumbency. But the
mayor, being a big frog In his par
ular puddle, objected to the city
manager's way of running things.
In the good old days, whenever a
dime was spent, he had been asked
about It. Rayburn, under the ordi
.' nance creating his Job, didn't have
to toady to the mayor and didn't do
It. This failure to observe the small
town amenities cost him a nasty
truggle and finally resulted In his
resignation.
From Inavale conies another in
stance of a like sort. The courts
have been appealed to in an effort
to prevent the consolidation of
school districts. The grounds given
show that some of the larsr frogs
have had their toes trod upon. As
a result of their efforts to demon
strate their authority, th? consoli
dated Bchool will probably go over
board. There isn't much doubt that
with consolidated districts the pupils
would be much better off. They
would have better teachers, for one
thing, for better teachers could be
hired with more money available.
They would have a better school
building as well. It Is possible that
Ihey might have been saved a walk
to school, for In some consolidated
districts enough money has betn
saved to Bend auto busses around to
collect the ntudents.
Despite the fact that the consot'
dated district plan means better
things for country school ptiplK
every so often we find some Pinnll
town autocrat standing In the way of
the wheels of progress. Some day
there'll be a large fly swatter de
signed to handle this class of clt-zen.
And when that day conies, there'll
be no dearth of applicants for the
privilege of using It. .
