STARR For Representative, GEORGE W. WOLFE County For Countv Attorney. ‘ J. S. PEDLER For Countv Assessor, W. T. OWENS Just Before Election Next week Tuesday will be election day. The longest political campaign in the history of our country will then have come to an end. Whatever may be the" result. it.is the bounden duty of every A merican citizen to go to the polls and vote for the men and measures he endorses. Then what ever may result he has performed his duty. The Northwestern believes that the election of Taft and the retention of the republican party in power is for the best interest of our country, and its columns have been used to that end. In this a large percentage of our readers have differed with us. and just as honestly, no doubt. It is too late now to argue further. By the time this reaches many of our sub scribers they will have registered their opinion and will have to abide by the result. What that may be no one can predict, nor even hazard a guess correctly, on the heads of the ckets. It may be- Taft: w e hope so. may be Wilson or Roosevelt: we as inestly hope-mot. < *n the state, ticket, the result Jabout as complex, as between the wo candidates for governor. On the ace. with the progressives endorsing the republican ticket, it would seem to be easy sailing for Aldrich, but the ghost of DahLman, the penitentiary trouble and.the split in the state re publican convention make guess work of the final attitude of the Taft men, the Liahlman democraeyr and the prison reform people, with the natu ral loss of the democratic vote he .received two years ago. With the balance of. tlie republican state ticket.however, there is very little auestpbO.- It wiil very likely pull 'tUrptlgif with safe majorities. The-Sematmrial fight is also a bad mixture. If we were to judge from what we hear. J udge Norris w ill have to content, himself with what he can get of the bull moose vote, a large part of which will go to Slialleberger, while the Taft men. with no undying ) loye for what they .term ‘grandstand playing.’- are a silent number to be i reckoned with. Coming down to the county situa tion, there is found a grave uncer tainty on representative. The bull moose convention, with its unfair treatment of George W. Wolfe, and nomination of R. L. Arthur, hurt Mr. Wolfe’s chances, which up to that time were 3 to 1 in his favor. It is yet, however, a good bet he will win out, and we trust he will. On county attorney, J. S. Pedler has the nom ination of all the parties save the > progressive, which put up W. J. Fish er. . Laying all prejudices aside and ■ taking everything in sight into con sideration Uncle Joe is the favorite [ by.a two to one vote. On county as sessor, we. have another three cor nered tight on which there is little, if | any politics involved and we leave any I hazard of results to ottieis. The following story originated in Kansas,but has been published all over the country: “An old gentleman was * trying to cross a street and stopped 1 short to allow a big touring car to 1 pass. J ust before it reached him a motorcyie dashed around the corner and bowled him over. As be arose brushed off the dust, he was heard to remark: ‘Now, who’d ’a’ thought that thing bad a colt?’ ” Senatorial Hoax The Journal sees in many exchanges the announcement of the candidacy of one Ferguson of Custer county, who is running by petition for United States senator. This is one of the hugest jokes of the campaign. The pictures that Ferguson is using may be of himself as he appeared twenty or thirty years ago. The man has an ambition for office and has run for every thing imaginable and never yet gone far enough to get the sup port of a single neighbor. He is a poor renter, if we are rightly informed, near Broken Bow and his whole crop this year will not begin to pay the advertising bill that he would con tract with the newspapers. Fergu son’s candidacy is a joke, a veritable hoax.—Ord Journal. Voters, Read This County Clerk Dieterichs received the following instructions in regard to voting on the five constitutional amendments which it would be well for every voter to read for their edifi cation in regard to same: “The election boards in each voting precinct in your county should be in structed to count all straight votes of each political party FOR the five constitutional amendments. You will note on my certificate of nomination that all parties voting at the primary held April 19th. endorsed the same by a majority vote, and that the Pro gressive party endorsed them at their state convention held September 5th, 1912. The courts have held that w here an amendment is thus endorsed it becomes a party measure and in effect is the same as nomination or endorsement ol a candidate. Where a cross is not made in the party circle at the top of the ballot, voters must indicate their vote FOR or AG AINST an amendment by placing a cross in the square at the right of each of the amendments. It is important that elections boards be so informed that the votes on the amendments may be properly canvassed. Newspapers will aid in giving this information pub licity.” County School Notes By Sapt. L. H. Currier At this season of the year we turn naturally to the subject of school work, for how important it is that be tween the home and the school there should exist cordial and sympathetic relations: as a rule the children’s progress at school is regulated by the home attitude toward the school. If the parents are indifferent, chil dren also are indifferent: if parents are interested in school work, a new impulse is given to the child's inter est. Parents should strive to under stand the teacher and hold her at the highest standard: no teacher can do justice to herself and pupils if she Is made an object of constant and severe criticism: expressions of disap proval should never be made in the presence of therchildren: antagonism between home and school destroys the value of the school to the children. Some methods pursued in the dis trict school are far from being perfect, but even in the last few years they have been greatly improved, And the tendency has been to render school work easy and interesting for chil dren. The progressive teacher will not allow pupils to find the school room and the dull lessons tedious;, every- \ thing is designed to please the child's; fancy and to secure attention. The memory is not so much taxed, as children are encouraged to think, to reason, to observe, and the general information existing among the school children prove that the modern methods are far better than the old, stern discipline. Yet in some in stances there is great danger of pro longing babyhood beyond the time when children should be interested in earnest study. Parents should strive to begin right and at the right time, the discipline of the mental faculties: for children very early learn to be indolent or industrious. “To save children from all exertion and to help them over difficulties,” is practiced by some parents to such an extent that it is injurious to the children. They become “leaners” not "lifters"; it is also the general opinion among parents that the children are overworked in the school room: this only appears so. The over worked child is the exception, not the rule. Upon investigation we find where one child is overworked there are twenty who are not accomplishing what they should acocmplish: where one needs holding back, the others ■t need pushing forward. Between work and play a strong ! dividing line should be drawn: chil ; dren should not dawdle over a lesson ! two hours that can by close applica tion be learned in half an hour: it takes away tire taste for either the lesson or play. The given lesson should be prepared in the shortest time possible, then when play time comes they will re bound quickly, throw off thought of ! study and enter heartily into the j sport, without being haunted by a ! half-learned lesson. To sit at home and find fault with | the teacher's method of conducting the school shows that we are either stupid or careless; neither should we ! accept conditions which mitigate : against the growth of the child ! Parents are not so busy that they cannot find time to visit the school and manifest an interest in the edu ( cation of their children: if the teacher 1 is unworthy of her work, remove the ' child from under her infl uence, but if allowed to remain, parents are in duty bound to acknowledge the teacher's fitness and give her hearty co-opera 1 tion and support. There should be 1 enthusiasm going on every where in district school work. Parents should consider themselves a committee j whose duty is to do all possible for the great cause of education.
