REPORT A FAKE Tho Toacher3 of Kansas Enjoy Considerable Notoriety OIDNOT CONTROL ELECTION Hence Thejr Laugh (Har the Story that Tbar Carried 8000 Out of OOOO Hchoul Districts John MacDonald, editor of the West ern School Journal, makes a few corn meats In his paper concerning tho newspaper fako that went tho rounds of tho caBtern newspapers a few weekB ago, stating that the women of Kansas had organized a secret campaign to capturo control of tho nnnunl school meetings in Kansas whllo tho men woro In tho harvest fields and had elected women as school officers on tho issue of doing away with tho alleged provision of school contracts prohibit ing teachers from being courted. It Eccms thnt this story has oven been taken seriously by soino of tho educational papers of the cast, and this Is what calls forth Mr. MacDonald's re marks. Ho says: "The unquestioning faith of our east ern brethren ln newspaper stories fills im with mirthful emotion, and adds years to our life. Listen to our crcdu Ioub brother, tho editor of tho Penn sylvania School Journal: " 'The Btato of Kansas Iibb had a Burprise. . . ; Tho women of this great state have elected a. majority of the members of tho school boards ln tho 2,000 Bchool districts.' 'Kansas has nearly 0,000 school dis tricts; but let that pass It Ib purely incidental. Sllonco again, listen: " The platform on which tho women conducted their campaign for control of the schools was kept a secret until tho day of balloting. It declared for wiping out tho objectionable provisions of tho teachers' contracts, which forbid tho women teachers to receive atten tions and calls from their gentlemen admirers during their term of school, and provide for tho forfeiture of a por tion of their salaries If the women mar ry before tho ond of their terms.' 199,000 for Ft.

In a sensational statement made In the Harlem, N. Y., police court Magis trate Crano denounced the wealthy for their cold indifference to and disre gard of poor people. Magistrate Crane made the statement In holding In $200 bail for trial Jackbon Gouraud on a charge of runulng an automobile over the speed limit. "Tho power of wealth," he said, "is becoming ono of the grentest evils ln this country. Men, when they get rich, have no kindness toward others as a general proposition, and especial ly when they aro ln automobiles. Wealth Is becoming so powerful that there will have to bo some legislation enacted to curb It. The state of things is becoming terrible when rich people can ride over poor people In the streets and escape without punishment. Rich people generally don't care for any body.'
