THE OMAHA DAILY 71213: "NV E D N EST) AT , DEO ISM HETt 10, UJUU. TO FUSE OR NOT TO FUSE QnciUon on Which Local Democracy is Split in Twain, THUS EARLY THE DISCUSSION IS ON One KiM-flon Dcrltirrn tar- Pop Are llnrliltinrm of Unci I.ui'k, U'hllc ihr Ullirr Hiij-h It In .Not Mo. Although many moona will come and go tooforo the next election In Douglas county, there Is considerable quiet discussion of an Important and delicate question connected therewith. The question at Issue Is, "To fuse 'or not to fuse," and It rest with tho domocrnts for settlement. As far as tho popullstH are concerned, their only hope lies In fusion and they aro clinging (o the dem ocratic machlno with nil their might. Hut thcro aro democratn who Insist that a po lltlcal ship In not unlike a craft of the sea, in that tho barnacles must bo Bcrapcd oft now and then In order to mnko smooth sail ing possible. Whether or not democrats of this mind aro BUtrtclently numerous In Douglas county to make tho demand for a ecraplng effective remains to be seen. It Is a well known fact that the local democracy Is split up Into two organiza tions, tho Jacksonlan club, representing tho exclusive set, and tho Douglas County Democracy, with a sort of frce-for-nll con Btltutcncy It may bo true (hat the Intelli gence of tho party Is centered In tho Jack vnnlan circle, but it cannot bo disputed that tho other organization has the larger num ber of votes and Is tho moro potent polit ical factor. Tho two clubs appear to bo ai far npart from each other on tho quostlon of fusion an they nro on nearly everything else. IncknniiliiiiN I'livor Tho JacksonlnnH nro Inclined to take the "pops" under their sheltering wlngB for Just ono moro campaign, whtlo there Is a growing ocntlment In tho Douglns county faction In favor of a straight democratic county ticket next fall. Ono of tho offlcura of tho Uouglan County Democracy, when nsked if fusion had seen ltd day In local politics, salti: "I hopo ho. I think that for every popu list In this county thcro nro at least two democrats who nro so dl.sguestcd with lus Ion that they voto the republican ticket. I have novsr been ablo to mako out a trial balanco on fusion. If wo democrats had nominated a straight ticket In the fall of 1809 wo would have elected every man on It. Wo elected tho sheriff, tho district court clerk, tho county trcasuror, a county commissioner all tlemocruts nnd then fell down on tho fusion part of tho ticket. Wo havo never beon nblo to elect a populist on a fusion ticket and I don't understand why they want to run for office unless it Is to put themselves In place for consolation prizcH In tho uhapu of appointments to small clerkships. Toim" .Spoil It All. "In tho city election of 1897, when wo ran Kd Howell for mayor, wo hud tho ticket loaded down with populists and the result was disastrous to us. In tho last county election tho 'pops on tho legislative ticket ran behind and came very near pulling tho wholo ticket down to defeat. I'm disgusted with populism and I think tho domocrnts of this county ought to try and forget all about It. I don't bcltevo thoro nro moro than 200 populist voIcb in tho county." An officer of tho Jncksonlans expressed tho gcnoral sentiment of the club by Eny Ing: "I think wo ought to try fusion once morcj, ah.dthoo Jfjt doesn't make a more favorable ihowlhg than It has made in tho past wo ought to drop It forever. Wo can Klve tho 'pops' a little representation on tho noxt county ticket becauso It Is our turn to name tho head of tho stato ticket. It may bo good politics, you know, to sacrifice, ono or two county offices for a democratic supremo Judge. WAST HOSUWATISll I'Oll SKNATOIl.

Public Bontlment in Cheyenno county seems to be very favorable to Mr. Itosowatcr and his election would bo highly satisfactory to us. As far as I am concerned, I think tho Btato of Nebraska and tho republican party of Nebraska both owe a debt of gratitude to Mr. Itosowater that can bo but partially llquldatod by his election to tho United States senate.

MISSREDFIELD COMPLIMENTED Child Study Monthly llpvnlen .Six I'liKe to Her Method of Tencli liitr Pupil to Xpell. Tho publishers of the Child Study Monthly, an educatloual Journal printed In Chicago, wera so much Impressed with the method of teaching spelling which Miss Jennlo Ilcdtleld, principal of the Lincoln school of Omaha, has devised that they have glvon six pages of their publication to Illus trating and explaining Miss Redfleld's ays tem. Tho aim of tho system Is to teach nunils the meaning of all tho words they spell, and It Is based upon tho assumption that much had spelling Is caused by tho falluro of children to comprehend tho significance of wordc. Ono of tho schemes ndopted by Miss Itcdfleld Is to havo spelling lessons written on tho blackboards one day before tho children nro to reclto them. Hut few words nro given at a time nnd pupils aro required to draw pictures which Illustrate their meaning, It has been found that tho drawing of pictures Is a delight to pupils and enables them to associate tho meaning and spelling of words. Itecltntlnns In spelling aro both written and oral, but words nro not glvon until their meaning has been oxplalncd. Misspelled words nro written In conspicuous places and pupils aro required to spell them both ornlly nnd to wrlto them In their cor rect form. A careful record shows that nearly all errors nro nindo by llvo or six pupils in each grade. RAILROADS WILL MAKE RATES UunlinriU to lie ilen I,ow !'nre fur Their Annual Co life re lie e Xext Veiir.

This proportion of phosphorus Is found to bo In proportion to tho mental development and mental activity displayed, invcsllga tlon thuB proves that tho result shows a higher order of development In tho brain containing tho most phosphorus. Feeding mill TrnlnlnK Children. It Is most Important that this knowledge should bo applied in tho physical training nnd mental development of children; aud It proves conclusively that tho offlco of cook U qulto as Important ns that of tho schoolmaster and that tho two must work with Intelligent conlltlon In order to bring tho standatd of mental and physical, as well as moral health and vigor to tho greatest stato of perfection In tho future generations. Parents too frequently relinquish their responsibilities when they placo their chll drcn under tho teacher's care; falling to realize that tho teacher's duty begins nnd ends in Instructing the child how to uso and control tho powers within by suitable mental and physical exercises. But it ccr taluly Is not their provlnco to furnish these powers. Theoo the child must acquire at home, through tho wlso and careful provl denco of the mother. If tho parent would but npply tho samo principle In feeding tho growing child ns tho farmer puts Into uso In raising his crops, stock or poultry, It would not only simplify tho duty that perplexes tho earnest and conscientious mother, but would relievo her of future anxiety Bho must experience In watching over tho poorly developed, half-nourished bodies of tho human beings sho Is respon slblo for. Tho farmer known ho cannot expect to rntso wheat In a Boll that Is not enriched with phosphorus, nitrates and lime. The samo general principle holds good In ro latlon to human development.
