STATE SUPERINTENDED
P. M. WHITEHEAD.
Gothenburg, Neb.
Democrat and People's Independent.
Fellow Cltizcn-s:
Do you realize that today, 11,000 in
structors, nearly 400.000 children and
youth, and a yearly expenditure for
education of over $8,000,000 summon
you to choose a candidate for state
superintendent?
1 offer for the service of the state
an educational training Rained at
Eureka College, Illinois, at tiie Peru
Normal, and at the University of Ne
braska. I offer twenty years exper
ience as a teacher, including three
years in rural acnools, service in a
Junior State Normal, and ton years
as city superintendent, at Gothenburg.
I am . at present a member of the
School Law Revision Commission.
My training In school, my exper
ience as an educator, and the obser
vations of twenty-three years, give
me the following settled convictions:
That all the children of all the peo
ple, are entitled to an equal amount
of equally good training.
That this can be secured without
any loas to those who now enjoy the
best advantages.
That the humblest teacher in the
most remote district la entitled to
equal consideration with the highest
salaried educator in the state.
That absolute merit Is the only
proper basis for the employment and
promotion of teachers.
That the offices of state and country
superintendent should be taken en
tirely out of politics.
That the constitution should be
amended, forever prohibiting the aals
of another acre of our public school
land.
Never before in the history of Ne
braska, was there greater opportuni
ty for real constructive service, than
Is offered today in the administration
of the department of education.
Our institutions of learning and th
great profession of education in this
state must cease to suffer at the
hands of factional strife and Jealous
quarrel. I am absolutely opposed to
ring rule of every kind and character
In Nebraska school affairs, and am
unqualifiedly committed to a fair and
Impartial consideration of the claims
of every educational interest in th
state, and upon this high plane, I
shall administer the office, if nomi
nated and elected.
Yeur most serious consideration ia
Invited, and your support is solicited
by the undersigned, who covets the
honor of serving the people of Ne
braska in this great office.
- Very Respectfully Yours.
P. M. WHITEHEAD.

Stipt Karl M. Cllue
FOR STATE SUPERINTENDENT
From The Alliance Herald, March
26, 1914:
Too often the Importance of a pub
lic office Is measured by the amount
of patronage it has to dispense. Much
Is being said now regarding pros
pective gubernatorial candidates in
Nebraska, but there is not much talk
about candidates for ether state of
fices. In the opinion of The Heral'd there
Is not a more Important state office
to be filled by the next election than
that of state superintendent of pub
lic instruction, considered in relation;
to the welfare of the rlsin ggenera-i
tion. The writer of this was for
many years engaged in public school
work, and as an editor watches with
great interest the progress of the
cause of education in Nebraska.
If capable men are nominated by
all of the political parties, there can
be no doubt of the election of a man
who will fill the office efficiently. For
the democratic nomination for state
superintendent of public instruction,
The Herald begs to submit the name
of a virile schoolman who has al
ready made his impress upon the ed
ucational system of Nebraska, but
who is young enough to have yet
many years of usefulness before him.
Superintendent Earl M. Cline of
the Geneva city schools possesses
qualifications that particularly fit
him for the office of ptate superin
tendent. Altho an eastern Nebraska
man, he has a warm place in the
hearts of the people In the western
part of the state on account of hav
ing been principal of the Sidney High
school and the Alliance State Junior
Normal. It is not possible to enum
erate all of Mr. Cline's qualifications
in one short editorial. He is a Ne
braska product and a man of liberal
education. He was educated in the
public schools of Falls City, the Peru
State Normal school, and the Uni
versity of Nebraska. At the Univer
sity he spent two years in the study
of law, which eminently qualified
him for his appointment, made by
Governor Morehead, to a place on
the commission to recommend a re
vision of the school laws of Nebras
ka. This commission was provided
for by resolution of the legislature
at its last session. It Is generally
expected that at the next session Im
portant legislation affecting the
schools of the state will be proposed.
In that event the state superintend
ent will be consulted and his advice
will have much weight in framing
new school laws and amending exist
ing statutes. We do not know of
another man, available fo rthe demo
cratic nomination, who combines to
so great a degree the qualifications
of an experienced and successful ed
ucator with the learning of a prac
tical attorney.
For the reasons above mentioned,
and others that could bo named, tThe
Herald suggests the name of Supt.
Earl M. Cline of Geneva for the dem
ocratic nomination for state superin
tendent of public instruction, and
will be delighted to see the demo
cratic press of the state give the sug
gestion a cordial reception.
