Martin Jetter took occasion to mention tha recent campaign In South Omaha. He "aid: "I am sure there would have been a far larger vote for annexation If the leglala tlve act had contained provisions, fixing the standing of th schools, th libraries, the v i fir and pollc force and paying the pres- 1 ent city official for the unexpired time, . ... ....... ..... miiiiii were careiuny auenoea vo viiu i-Bfti cpi irhcii to inauri nv uiocimi. .nation lp th matter of Improvement much of the prejudice against consolidation would disappear. I am In favor of bigger things I and I think that all f nuglaa county I within a radius of eight ..idea from Six-' teenth and Farnam streets should be com bined under one set of officers, doing away with the repeated machinery of the county and city government. The county' commis sioner, and the boards of fir and noll'-e commissioners could easily be merged Into on body which should be effective. Above all, I would like to soe such a city mad , self-governing, with th right to make Its own charter entire. Home rule for Greater Omaha ought to be the slogan of the next campaign. If the rural districts outside of th eight mile radius wanted to come Uto th corporation let - them, but give them th right to annex themselves to the outlying counties If they preferred by a petition. Lot some good lawyer get to .. , , . Ible law Incor- work and frame up a sens poratlng all of these provisions and I think he would have the vast majority of all tha people with him.

NEW YORK AHD BOSTON SY5TEV3 Ifarmoay af Mtir Rape la ItkaeU f Hawaii Asiatic Kal ta Lrara Qalrker Tkaa Amerlraa. The school and health authorities of Greater New Tork and Boston, acting to gether, have brought about a decided Im provement In the physical condition of school children by the system of medical Inspection Instituted a few years af". Ce glnn'ng as an experiment In a small way In New York City five years ago. the medical force now consists of liO inspec tors and fifty-four ntirses. Boston's force Is proportionately smaller, but the system Is similar. In the greater city the Inspec tors and nurses are assigned to groups of schools where rooms are set apart for their use. The Inspector visits each school In his eharge before 10 o'clock In the morning and examine children Isolated by th teacher as suspected case of con tagious disease; all children who have been absent from school for several days; children returning after previous exclu sion; children previously ordered under treatment; all affected children showing no evidence of treatment; all eases re ferred to him by the school nurses for diagnosis. Children showing symptoms of small pox diphtheria, scarlet fever, measles, chickenpox, whooping cough, and mumps are Immediately sent home. Culturee ere taken In all cases of sore throat to deter mine the presence of th diphtheria bacil lus. In cases of smallpox, scarlet fever, or measles the Department of Health la ii'nni i,riv:?iiiiiic, ' "4.schools clan may at once visit the'ease, confirm ir... 'tt-e- dl"gnosls, and order proper Isolat'on. Children previously excluded for this class of alln-ents must bring certlflcites of ter mination of the disease from th Depart ment of Health before they are readmit ted. JUter these duties are completed children ave ordered to report In turn to the medl- --::, ,.. mu,, nhvalral ex .xi. w...... rini'rutlon. The purpose of the examina tion l to detect there cordltlona: Condition of nutrition, presence of enlarged cervical Kliinds, chorea, cardiac disease, pulmonary disease, skin diseases, deformity of the , ch( ' defects chest or extremities; defective vision, hearlp. obstructed nal brea'h- ng, Cefectlvf teth, ef rmed i alate, ' y er trophted tonsils, potteilor nasal growth and defective mentality. In each Instance where treatment is deemed necessary an official card, notifying th parent. Is filled out. Later In the day the medical Inspector visits In their homes all children who have been absent from school for several days for any unasslgned cause end recommends treatment If necessary. At the beginning of each school term the medical Inspector makes a routine examlm atlon of each child in the schools In his charge. The eyelids, throat, skin and hair of each pupH are examined. The Inspector la not allowed to touch the child, but the latter is required to run down lis own eyelids, open Us mouth, show Its hands, and, in the case of the girls, lift up the back hair. The work of the nursa supplements that of the medical Inspector. In the morning she receives children sent' to her for treat ment by the medical Inspector. Only those children are sent to the nurses fop treat ment who are unable to employ private physicians or thos who through lgnoranco or poverty on the part of the parent are not likely to get home treatment, The diseases treated Include pcdlculois, ring worm of the face, head and body, favus, moiluscum contaglosum and acute con junctivitis. The children return to her for further treatment at regular Intervals. After this morning Inspection th nurses make a routine examination of thchlldren In the class rooms. Doublful cases are referred to the medical inspector for diag nosis. After school hours the nurses visit at tholr homos all children who have per sistently neglected treatment. The parents are advised as to the needs of attention. Detailed Instruction as to tne card of pedl culoais are given and in certain Instances the nurse takea thtt child to th dispensary. In trachoma cases a slmllsr course Is pur sued. , Interesting statistics on the work have been prepared by the New York Health ! department.

The fees for the first .term amounted to 8S7. "His first employment was that of waiter In a Student boarding house, In return for which h' . ecelved bis board.

"The athletic proclivities of the law school man were shown by the fact that he played foot ball for two seasons at Colum bia," th friend ald, "As a member of the varsity team it saturajly got room and board fre from th beginning of practice until th end of November. "Being a practical person and recognising that hla strength made him a good man for a team oa which good men were scarce, he saw to It that the management reim bursed him for his term. He did not think that there' was any srofeaslonallam In It. He considered that a a graduate of an other college he could not be expected to be playing foot ball with undergraduatt Seal. "li uaiid the morivy he gut as a by- product of th play. He waa selling one part of his time to the Board of Education and another part to the foot ball team, giving value received. "Many a night he was tired and sore when he had to hurry from the training table over to his school work. He us 'd even to hurry away from games out of lomn to ret back to his school work In New York. It was professionalism or an odd klnd. 1118." but It always seemed excusable to Edaratloa ta Hawaii. Prof. Charles F. Thwlng, ptesldent pf the Western Reserve university, who spent several months of last summer visiting the American Islands of the Pa cific, gives an Interesting account of tne schoola of Hawaii In a letter to the Now York Evening Post. Ho says. In rart: In the 1(0,000 Inhabitants of the Ha waiian Islands are found about 31.0,10 children enrolled In the schools. Of this number about 6.000 are of Aslatlo oris n 4,000 being Japanese and 2,000 Chlnfa--S.000 are pure Hawaiian, 3,000 psrt Ha waiian, 4,000 Portuguese, 1,000 of Ameri can parentage, the remaining 2,000 beln divided between the Biltish, the German, tbe Scandinavian, the Corean, the ro;to Rlcan and other peoples. For so small a number It 1 probably the most mlxd school population on the fact of the gloie In the Instructing of these boys and girls both the public school and the private, the national and the church school are used. The ecclesiastical schools were of early origin, Oahu college being opened by the American Board of Missionaries In In 1841. Catholio as well as Protestant were snd are these schools of secondary Instruction. The Buddhists have also o cently established their schools. In the same year of 1841 publto schools were es tablished. Since th Japanese and Chinese have come In large numbers, schools tor these children, and for those children only, have been In operation. Thotr sessions are usually so arranged as not to lnteri fere with the seuaiona of the public They are, Indeed, national schools, their chief purpose seems to be to promote a knowledge of their own lan guage and literature. 'Ihe mixed character of both the private and the public schools Is also seen In the nutioimiily of the teachers. Although out of a total of some 700 Instructors about one-half are of American origin. the other half are divided among Hawaiian and part Hawaiian, British German, Port uguese, French, Scandinavian, Chlne3e, Japanese and other peoples. It Is, fur thermore, not to be forgotten that of the some dosen different races found on the Islands, the children represent mixture of almost every variety of blood. A pic ture lies before me containing nineteen boys and girls students in a elngla school. Besides five students of pur blood, one sees students part Hawaiian, ard part Filipino, part French and part Portuguese, part Norwegian and part walian, part Chinese and part Hawaiian part Japanese and pnrt Hiwell-in, jar American and part Hawaiian. It Is, In deed, a mlcrocoi-m of all school chilJien and teachers of the south and the norJi of the east and of the west. Inall the public schools, and In most of '7"." ' jndowed schoo . f0r th, native Hawaiian the private one (these being some specially boys and girls) the children1 of each and of all these Yces are enrolled. The en rolment begins i with the kindergarten and ends only, with the end of the public school sytem In th high school and the normal. In all these grades and orders these pu pils study In the same room, sit at neigh boring desks, recite together, play together and finally graduate on the same day, and from the same platform. The essential and ' sigritfleant thing nnd It Is, I believe, very significant to be said about this mixture or intermixture Is that this co-operation and communion seem to work In perfect harmony and unto effi ciency. The methods are simple and na tural, and the results seem to be satis factory to every one. The only note of criticism and perhaps It should not be called criticism is a remark made to me by the principal of the high school. Mr. M. M. Scott, who was nne of the organizers of the public school system of Japan, to th effect that the Arnerlran boys are not so good students as the Asiatic. In mas tering the Iatln grammar, for Instance, the Asiatic ones are better than the Anglo Saxon, Mr. Scott has borne public testi mony to th excellence of the Chinese, say ing: "As students I find the Chinese young men truthful, persistent, courteous to their companions and deferential to their teach ers. I believe thrft their average capacity Is eaual to that of their white brethren. J Their power of application far exceeds I mat or American youin. inis power, coup- , '' wth their good conduct, makes them I favorites with all teachers. 'tne Japanese mina is more aierr, man r the Chinese, and both seem to excel the I American In patience, in learning, In con- tlnuoi's Industry end in eagerness In get ting an education. "Why do you allow thee Japanea and Chinese to beat you?" was asked Of a body of American boys by their teacher In the Honolulu 'High school. "Oh. w can't help it; they Just study all the time; they take no recess." , - i A comparison of the methods and results of the public schools of the Hawetian lal- ends and of th" city of Ban Francisco seem to be npt a comfsrlson but a con .9 i 'I 2 HUNTER BALTIMORE RYE THE STANDARD OF EX- CEU-ENCE FUR OVER rIFTY YEARS.

Be It said that the Chine who come to Hawaii are from the aama aectlon pf China aa those who come to the coast Canton and Its province. The reason Ilea In the simple fact that on the Islands the Chinese have been received with kindness and hospital ity, and In early times with official wel comes; on the mainland they, have been received by many of the peop'e with sus picion, and aloofncsn, with aversion, re vulsion, nnd finally with exulslon, The evidence Is that Im the Chinese be given a fair chance he will prove himself worthy of becoming an American citlien. Honolulu bears testimony. In fjnlque and impressive and somewhat prolonged form, ' to the conclusion which every forelgn- filled city of America offers, vli that the j American public school Is the most Amer I Icanlzlng force. What can and what shall transmute the millions of peoples of alien blood and strange customs and environ ments, who' are coming to the new world every decade, into loyal and orderly Amer icana?
