bad that I could not even turn over

The Pilot Is not responsible for the
nomination of Norris Brown, George
L. Sheldon or Congressman Pollard.
We believed these men were fake re
formers and our opinion was based on
their entire lives of collusion with and
subserviency with the corporations,
and for this reason we opposed their
nomination. We did not oppose the
nomination of Ilinshaw, but had we
known at the time that bis son was
franking automobiles and trunks on
the pass of Tom Piatt and that this
same son was drawing $1,200 a year as
private secretary and at the same time
a student in the Columbia law school,
we certainly would have opposed the
nomination of Mr. Ilinshaw.
There Is no defense to such conduct
and the political party that places
such men on the ticket deserves to be
taken to task by the people. To have
clean, honest government we must
have clean, honest men. To have
wholesome laws, laws that will pro
tect and safeguard the people's Inter
ests, we must elect men to ofllce who
are in sympathy with the people.
The people complain of unfair treat
ment and wonder why they do not
have their wrongs righted and go
blindly to the polls and vote for men
who refuse to right these wrongs.
So long as partisanship shall be the
sovereign over the judgment and con
science of men just that long will
grievances go unsatisfied. If the peo
ple would lay aside their partisanship
and vote for the man rather than the
party the wrongs which they complain
of would be soon righted. Nothing
will bring a political party to its senses
quicker than adversity at the polls.

MUST ENFORCE THE LAW
State Superintendent Says It Is Up to the
County Superintendents.
LOOK AFTER COMPULSORY EDUCATION
Advises Then to Look After the Matter
Rlgidlj and Keep a Tru
ant Record.
County superintandents must en
force the compulsory education law.
So State Superintendent McBrlen
writes in answer to the many Inqui
ries he has received on the subject.
It Is the duty of city superintendents
and boards of education to report any
violations of the law to the county
superintendent. He must Investigate
and give written notice to the viola
tors. The further duty of the county
superintendent la expressed In the
state superintendent's letter as fol
lows: "And If one week from the time of
said notice such parties are still living
in violation of the law, then the coun
ty superintendent shall appear In the
court of the county judge and file his
complaint against such parties violat
ing the law. The county judge shall
at once issue summons against the of
fending party or parties. Such sum
mons shall Deserved by the proper of
ficer as by law prescribed, which offi
cer will be the sheriff of the county or
the constable of the precinct or town
ship, as it may please the court. It
will not take many executions of the
law to awaken all offenders. It is the
certainty of execution of the law that
will bring the parents or guardians to
a proper observance of the law.
"I hope you will put forth every ef
fort for a rigid enforcement of this
law In your county. Many county su
perintendents are now waginga stren
uous campaign for the enforcement
of this law. You are, of course, at
liberty to call on high school princi
pals, teachers and boards of education
to give you prompt notification of any
violation of the law. A plain state
ment from you to the offending party
or parties will, in ninety-nine cases
out of one hundred, have the desired
effect without further prosecution.
Let them know that tbe sheriff will
be after them if they fall to comply
with your notice. I would suggest
that you register, at the expense of
the county, every letter you send to
any parent or guardian living in vio
lation of this law. I reccommend
that you keep a truant record, show
ing dates and persons notified, as well
as your final action In the matter and
the decision of the court (if any.) It
is not necessary for you to personally
investigate such cases. You have suf
flclent evidence for notice to parent
or guardian upon information from
any person whose duty It Is to notify
you of any violation of this law."
