the kindergarten, all its groups of
gifts, are intended for the harmonious
' development of the whole child." Dr.
E. C. Rider, principal of one of the
New York schools for the deaf, Bays:
"Industrial training at schools for the
deaf is receiving more and more the
attention which it deserves. The kin
dergarten Is the precursor of sloyd, it
prepares children for trades, and in
itiates them into the arts and sci
ences. The kindergarten brings to
young children, in a tangible form,
fundamental scientific ideas. The phy
sical training is complete in the kin
dergarten. Its gymnastics gives elas
ticity to the step, proper poise and
carriage of the body. The moral train-
' 4 i rr nrhlnli Vila cvetem fnnllirfosi i lin-
surpassed."
In the fall of 1897 a kindergarten
school was established at the Nebraska
chool for the deaf, with a thoroughly
trained kindergartener in charge. The
results accomplished were all .that
could be expected from an educational
standpoint. But the school was abol
ished by the present superintendent.
No explanation given and no reason
can be found except that the superin
tendent is some thirty years behind the
times in educational matters. At the
same time a manual training school
was organized with Prof. S. S.Vi
detto, formerly principal of the Halsh
Manual Training school at Wesleyan
university, in charge of the depart
ment. The good results secured with
these boys cannot be overestimated.
The boys developed into skilled men,
capable of rendering valuable service
in any community. The work pro
duced was favorable compared with
that done in the manual training de
partments of the state university and
the Omaha high school. But this
skilled instructor did not suit the
present management and he was re
placed by a job carpenter whose chief
duty it is to oversee the boys while
they make needed repairs about the
buildings. This is a return to the
asylum Idea in the care of the deaf.
This is a crime against the deaf that
no amount of sophistry can cover up.
The state has no more right to the la
bor of these pupils, as labor, than it
has to that of any other citizen. They
are sent to school to be taught,, not
to be worked. What would the parents
of the boys in the manual training de
partments of the state university and
high schools think of a management
that would discharge the teachers and
place the boys in the care of the car
penter to assist in making repairs
about the buildings and campus? If
such a thing were attempted it would
not require twenty-four hours to se
cure an entirely new management of
the school. But the parents of the
deaf are scattered about the state, two.
or three in a county, and many of
them unable to visit the school in or
der to learn what is being done and
their dastardly outrage Is permitted to
be accomplished.
All persons who have followed the
trend of educational affairs will know
that the methods of instruction used
in the Pratt institute are as good as
can be found in this country. Miss
Minnie Plotts, a teacher thoroughly
versed in the.methods used by. that in
stitution, was employed to givjs in
struction in sewing. The work was
systematically done and most excellent
results secured. Many of the girls
learned to measure, cut. fit, and make
wool and silk dresses. These are now
skilled needlewomen able to earn their
own living, or render valuable assist
ance in the home. But this excellent
teacher was turned out, and though
now dead, the superintendent does not
hesitate to Insult her friends by un
just and unkind criticisms of her
splendid work for the deaf. She liter
ally gave up her life in the interest of
those whom she served. A noble.
Christian character whose very pres
ence was an inspiration to her pupils
to struggle for the best development
of perfect womanhood. Turned out of
the school, sent home to die of a
broken heart, followed beyond the
grave and her memory blackened in
order that some fancied political ad
vantage may be secured. This position
was given- to a seamstress to oversee
the girls while they work on bed and
table linen, that the state may make
a few dollars out of their labor.
Instruction in shoe-mending was
also begun in 1897. with Mr. L. M.
Hunt in charge. Mr. Hunt is a thor
oughly competent and efficient teacher
and was a complete success In the de
partment, In spite of the handicap of
limited means with which to do the
work. He has been discharged without
cause.
An exhibit was made at the trans
Mississippi exposition of all the work
of the school, literary departments as
well as industrial. Upon thi3 exhibit
a gold medal was awarded by the ex
position. A small exhibit was sent to
the "World's fair at Paris. This ex
hibit received a silver medal. In 1900
an exhibit was made at our state fair
In Lincoln. ; Here the competition was
directly and squarely with the work
Of the public schools, grade for grade,
all schools having used the same
. course of study. The school for the
deaf carried off more than half of all
the premiums offered in the educa
tional department. More than $30 in
cash premiums were won by the deaf
pupils. The superintendent oi uiass
J, educational, said that if full jus
tice were done by the judges, the deaf
.would get every premium offered. The
State Journal in commenting on the
exhibit said: .
'The state institute for the deaf, at
Omaha, has a most artistically ar
ranged exhibit in the center of Mer
cantile hall. The booth is in the shape
ofan octagon and was prepared be
forehand by the pupils of the school
and set up In Lincoln. It is tasteful
ly decorated in white and yellow with
the wood-work painted in harmoniz
ing colors. None of the work shown
is made by an expert other than those
taking instruction in the school. The
needle-work shows what careful train
ing may accomplish. Written exer
cises are followed from the most un
Important details in sewing up to the
most complex. Patch-work and darn
ing, samples of which are shown, are
taught with especial care. Each girl
who graduates from the institution
is expected to make her own dress.
The work Is practical. , The skill of
the workmen at the Institute is evi
dent from the samples of inlaid work
and turning shown. ., Among the more
elaborate exhibits are an inlaid table
by John Rosenthal; Inlaid stand, in
many kinds of woods, by Herman
Plenz; inlaid board for games, by
Richard Bingham; checker board, by
Harold. Lee; beside these there are
numerous samples of fine lathe-work."
The officers of the State Historical
society asked for and received a por
tion of this exhibit for a permanent
display in their rooms at the state uni
versity. The national government maintains
a college for the deaf at Washington.
Students from the states, that are able
to pass the entrance examinations and
carry the college studies, are entitled
to a -college education on much the
same terms that they get their elemen
tary education in the state schools.
The Nebraska school was established
thirty-three years ago and not a pupil
from Nebraska has been graduated
from the college. All that were able
to get into college, except one young
man and two young ladies, failed in
the college studies and were sent home
the first year. In regard to the young
man the instructors at the college say
that he could have carried the work
had he been so disposed, but not wish
ing a higher education he left after a
short stay. The two young women
graduated while the school was in
my care. They are now in college and
their teachers write good reports of
their progress in the college studies.
These are some of the educational re
sults that show a thorough and syste
matic organization, well and success
fully carried out.
In addition to this educational work
a new school building, costing $25,000,
was erected. A boiler, engine and
pump house was constructed. The
heating system entirely overhauled and
reconstructed on up-to-date plans for
steam heating. Tunnels built to con
nect all the buildings with the boiler
house. A' Page wire fence erected to
take the place of a worn-out board
and barbed wire affair. Grounds grad
ed and lawn put in order. -All needed
repairs to the buildings were made.
This Is but a partial record of what
was accomplished in less than four
years that I served as superintendent.
In brief, a school was made out of an
asylum. "Inmates" were transformed
into pupils. Industrial schools were
established, and expert teachers were
employed in all departments. And
not a dollar of the state's money
stolen, wasted or misappropriated.
It Is indeed discouraging to those
interested in the welfare of the deaf,
to see the institution take the retro
grade movement that it has during the
last twenty months. The deaf are en
titled to the same consideration in edu
cational matters as the hearing. They
are entitled to the best instructors
that can be secured. It is an injustice
to them and to the state to employ
cheap teachers from other states sim
ply because they can be hired for less
money than teachers with homes in
Nebraska.
I do not care to reply to the slurs
made about me personally. Such things
are always in bad taste, and can only
come from men of small caliber with a
mind filled with carrion. But I am
ever ready to answer for my official
acts and to defend the faithful teach
ers, who have given some of the best
years of their lives in the service of
the deaf, against unwarranted attacks
and abuse.
Regretting that the superintendent
has permitted, what should be an edu
cational institution to be drawn into
a political campaign. H. E. DAWES.

Oppressing the Jews
Secretary Hay has sent a note to all
the nations signing the treaty of Ber
lin protesting against the horrible
cruelties practiced on the Jews of Rou
mania. The reduction of the 400,000
Jews to a state of misery and poverty
and the recent effort to send them
wholesale in their ignorance, misery
and pauperism to the United States
and other countries is the ground for
the appeal to the signatories of that
treaty. In describing the laws of Rou
mania, Secretary Hay says:
"Nearly every opportunity to win a
livelihood is denied, and the hapless
poverty of the Jew has constrained an
exodus of such proportions as to cause
general concern.
"The Jews are prohibited from own
ing land, or even from cultivating it
as common laborers, They are de
barred from residing in the rural dis
tricts. Many branches of petty trade
and manual production are closed to
them in the overcrowded cities where
they are forced to dwell and engage,
against fearful odds, in the desperate
struggle for existence. Even as ordi
nary artisans or hired laborers they
may only find employment in the pro
portion of one 'unprotected alien' to
two 'Roumanians,' under any one em
ployer. In short, by the cumulative
effect of successive restrictions, the
Jews of Roumania have become re
duced to a state of wretched misery.
Human beings so circumstanced have
virtually no alternatives but submisive
suffering or flight to some land less
unfavorable to them. Removal under
such conditions is not and cannot be
the healthy, intelligent emigration of
a free and self-reliant being. It must
be, in most cases, the mere trans
plantation of an artificially produced
diseased growth to a new place."
If the government of Roumania by
its barbarous code of laws has reduced
400,000 of its inhabitants to pauper
Ism, then it should be made to take
care of them and not be permitted to
ship them off to other nations.
The victory that the democracy
gained in the election of Cleveland the
last time was more disastrous to the
party than all the defeats it ever
suffered from its organization until
the present time. Another victory
won under the leadership of such man
as Gaston in Massachusetts and Hill
in New York would wind the old par
ty up. For that reason a great many
men pray earnestly three times a day
that Hill and Gaston may win.
Remember that more reading is done
during the winter months than during
all the rest of the year. If you are

- . COUNTY OFFICERS
Judge Skllesof Butler County, Discusses
the Plan to Extend the Term ef Office
by Legislation
"Editor Independent: Some time
ago, through the columns of the
Omaha World-Herald, I called atten
tion to a rtcent organization in this
utate known as the Association of Ne
rraska County Officers. The object
of this CK-ociation, as I pointed out,
is to persuade the coming legislature
to enact into law a measure that will
extend tne term of present county offi
cers for a period of two years beyond
the time for which they were elected.
In other words, they hoped to secure
two years more of office by virtue of
the legislature instead of an election
by the voters of their respective coun
ties. But the proposed plan to legislate
themselves into two years of office, as
bold and brazen as it appears on its
face, Is not so represensible as the
method by which they propose to bring
about this, their "consummation de
voutly to be wished."
In the printed minutes of their first
meeting they provide for assessments
to be levied upon all county officers.
The object of this becomes apparent
further a'.ong when it was moved and
carried "that the campaign !(for this
proposed measure) be conducted upon
the lines of personal appeal to the
members of the legislature rather than
upon the stump or through the news
papers." Then to show how easy a
plan like tai3 can be carried through
the legislature .they recite the fact
that a previous attempt to increase
the terms of office came within one
vote of carrying and "failed for lack
of funds."
Now,vMr. Editor, it may or may not
be wise to cnange a term from two
years to four years, but certainly no
one but an office leech would serious
ly advocate extending the terms of
those already in office. If the change
is desirable, let it take place at the ex
piration of the terms for which the
present county officers are elected.
Thus far it seems that the Associa
tion of county officers has been success
ful in preventing any publicity of their
plans. Is it possible that th'is organi
zation has already raised a sufficient
fund to subsidize the press? Let us
have this proposition discussed, Mr.
Editor, and let us see to it that the
campaign for this measure is not car
ried on by a personal appeal to the
members of the legislature, rather than
through the newspapers and upon the
stump. C. M. SKILES.

That Clem Deaver Deal
The hearing in the O'Neil land case
was held at that city last Monday.
Irwin Seymour, Charles McKinzie,
Frank Parker and Roy A. Downs were
witnesses Who attended from here.
Each witness testified that they had
received $100 for not appearing at the
office to bid in the Thurston county
Indian lands and said that Nick Fritz
and others put up part of the money
and that over $2,000 was so paid out
to prospective bidders. Fritz et al did
not make any defense, although Mr.

Before the year closes we shall reach
and probably pass the $8,000,000 mark,

In another year we can easily push our

Just Heard It
Some weeks ago The Independent
published a statement concerning the
new deal in Rock Island securities.
Last week the news got around to the
Qhicago Tribune and it published the
following statement made by Gov
ernor Cummins of Iowa:
"As conditions were before the plan
was undertaken, with the stock of the
old Rock Island company at 200, it
required an investment of more than
$75,000,000. to control the property.
Now, with the preferred stock of the
New Jersey company at par, it requires
an investment Of $26,251,000 to control
it.
"In the stead of the $75,000,000 of
.Lock which formerly represented the
ent:ro interest in the Rock Island sys
tevj. exclu-jve of indebtedness, there
are now $402,500,000 of stock and
bonds, and xhis without the payment of
a dollar, wr c the fees for organizing
the3fl companies.""
The stock has been watered 500 per
cent, but the republican attorney gen
eral of Iowa informs the governor that
the transaction is perfectly legal. Hen
derson ought to get a job with the new
management of the Rock Island. That
seems a trust transaction that would
cause his greatest admiration.
Not Beaten
George Fred Williams opened the
fight in the Massachusetts democratic
convention with these words:
"A man Is not beaten who has not
been in a fight; is he?
"Well, I am only just beginning to
fight. I have been lulled into a sense
of false security during the summer
and have been led to believe that Col
onel Gaston and his supporters would
not make any effort to renounce the
policy of the party as laid down at the
last national convention. I have had
distinct assurances to that effect from
Mr. Qulncy and many of Colonel Gas
ton's friends. Had it been supposed
two months ago that the party would
turn its back on the policies, Colonel
Gaston could not have got more than
one-tenth of the delegates to the con
vention. But I have never been beaten
by the Boston machine yet. Whenever
I have appealed to the people they
have sustained me, and I believe they
will again when the issue is pre
sented." It is the opinion of The Independent
that a man might as well be beaten
as to go to sleep at his post and
while 'he slumbers permit the enemy
to capture the whole citadel. i
The trust companies of New York
City owe $88,001,689, most of it pay
able on demand. The banks owe
$955,829,400, all payable on demand.
The trust companies have practically
no reserves at all, their fund3 being
lent to the clearing house banks.
That being the case, it will be. seen
that when the banks have the legal
reserve of 25 per cent, the truth is, that
the real New York reserve is only
12 per cent.

Not An Enviable One Was That of
This Young Veteran of the
Spanish-American War
Charles J. Draper, of South Shafts
bury , Vt, who served in-company D,
Fourth Pennsylvania regiment, during
the Spanish-American war, brought
home with him a relic which caused
him a great deal of misery. He tried
to rid himself of it but was unable
to do so until a friend came to his aid
with what proved to be a valuable sug
gestion. Mr. Draper tells of It as fol
lows: "During the encampment in Georgia
I became very ill, probably from im
pure water, poor food and the climate.
After eating even the lightest food I
would bloat to a great extent. My
bowels were in a very serious condi
tion and my heart was so weak that a
few minutes' walk would exhaust me.
I could, only just drag myself around
and sometimes I would have to stay
in bed for a few days. I was treated
in Georgia andvin Porto Rico by our
company surgeon and later by the doc
tor at home. They both told me it
would be months before I could ex
pect to see, any improvement.
"I had been in this state of misery
for about' four months when a friend
recommended Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
for Pale People. He ' had been ben
efited by them and thought they
might help me. I began taking them
and felt relieved in three days. I took
them for two months and they made
me well and strong. I keep the pills
by me all the time though I have had
no need of medicine for a long while."
Stomach trouble and nervous debility
always yield readily to the potent in
fluence of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
for Pale People. These pills are a posi
tive specific for all diseases arising
from poor blood or weakened nerves.
They ' cure locomotor ataxia, partial
paralysis, St Vitus' dance, sciatica,
neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous head
ache, the after-effects of the grip, pal
pitation of the heart, pale and sallow
complexions and all forms of weakness
either in male or female. Dr. Will
iams' Pink Pills for Pale People are
sold by all dealers, or will be sent post
