The persistent assaults upon our courts are reflected in a resolution for a constitutional amendment, in troduced in the house by a member from Indiana, proposing the election of members of the federal supreme court and all judges of inferior courts, as well as all other public officials, except cabinet members,) ambassadors, ministers and consuls. The terras of supreme Justices thoj resolution fixes at eight years, those j or others at six. The people doubtless do not real ize the sweep of this mania for changing our constitution so as to malt this a democracy instead r-f a republic. Such a change can only rest opon the concese.on that our republican form of government has proved a failure. Dc you think it has? If it has, who knows but in the hands of the saire people a pfire democratic form of government might not 'also fa1.'? 'Sometimes 11 ficrai that what Is mort needed is a soberer sense of discrimination on the part of the people. Standpatism Bead, Indeed. Former Senator Lafayette Young of Iowa, in explaining tils surprising endorsement of Senator Cummins as Iowa's presidential candidate, condi tionally, takes the pains to state that standpatism Is dead and burled. Yes, t has been for a long time. Seven years of Roosevelt and three of Taft quite sealed its tomb and the Ameri can people, we think, are' too respect ful of the dead to permit any dese cration of the grave at this late day. The republican party has this to be thankful for, that on the eve of Us national convention both sides contending for the nomination stand for progressive government, In which, of course, as In everything se, there are degrees. But to the republican party, which came into existence as the logic of evolution and progress, this nation owes Its progreesivelsm. Serious recognition of, this historical fact, too, is what will determine events next fall after all the excitement of the preliminary campaign dies down. Waiters' Wages. -The waiters' strike In New York has brought to light the fact that the higher wages are paid by the lower priced eating bouses. For Instance, In hotels and cafes where soups are listed at 60 cents, roast beef at 75, Ice cream at 40 and coffee at 25 Cents, the average wage of the waiter Is,, $6 ( a- week.. JHa works seventy- eight, hours a week, and has twelve hours a. week off wprk. The eating places that, seir soup, for 10 cents a plate, roast beef for 20 cents, Ice cream Tor .,f and. coffee for 5, -pay their waiters on an average of;U and $ I ti a "week,) work' them '.from forty-eight ' to fifty-four hours and give them twenty-four hours a week off. But, of course, the waiter In the high priced place Is the waiter who makes the big money off the guest. Which Is another Illustration that Jones, he pays the freight, show ing why Jones Is probably not deeply Incensed at the waiters for striking. Our Troops in Cuba. Criticism of American troops in vading Cuba Is disarmed by the reply of President Gomes to the appeal of property owners for protection, that he is without power to offer guar antees. Property, and In extreme cases, life, has been placed in Jeopardy by rebel depredations. The chief executive of the country ad mita his inability to cope, unaided, with what may develop.. There fore, nothing is left for the United States but to hasten its troops Into the distressed country. To tem porize would be folly. England, Germany and other European peb pies with interests at stake, to say nothing of Americans, have a right to demand protection and If Cuba cannot give it, the United States must. Let the talk of intervention go on for the present. Cuba in the meantime will bo denied no oppor tunity to make good on self-government. If after getting "a full op portunity it falls," then whose is the responsibility? In whatever sane light viewed, the action of the fed eral government is wise and most commendable. Betting oa Death. , The. speed races on the Indian apolis motor tracks resulted in no deaths this time. This was evi dently due to good fortune rather than good management. The most natural thing is death where all pre cautions against it are burled to the winds as they are In one of these break-neck competitions. At the ringside before the races bets were made that some would meet death before the finish. Prob ably many attended In the hope of witnessing a tragedy. Our American mania for speed is Indeed furious when It gets to the point where men will gamble with life as with a pawn. It shows how lightly some, regard it. ; What, after all, have our Titanic slaughters taught us? We weep, emotionally, wipe away the tear and plunge headlong into a new poten tial tragedy, stolidly Indifferent to the fact that hundreds have just paid the penalty of death for the crare. Perhaps, however, since the accl dental avoiding of death , at In dianapolis, it will be argued that speed races are safe If only properly conducted, which mar iold Rood as ' mu argument until the next race. THE BEE: OMAHA, FRIDAY, JUNE 7, SCHOOL DAYS IN EARLY OMRh IV. Superintendents, Principals, Special Teacheis, Janitors. BY VICTOR ROSEWATER, ' Member of the Class of 1887 and Now Editor of The Be3. As already dacribd in these articles, I had started in the first grade the fall of 1870 at the age of SVx years, and by outside work had mada up in transit three classes equivalent to a whole grade, so that in the fall of 13 I was ready to go to the hlgb ischool at the age of IVi years, beirig the youngest boy in my class, and. presumably the youngest up to that time to be admitted into the hlgb school. " At this point of my narrative will fit In a few collateral observations. During my school days in Omaha I came under two or three school superintendents. At the outset the superintendent was 8. D. Beale, who was a typical school man, although' in outward appearance and manner more resembling a clergyman. Ho had been cminty superintendent and state superintendent, ' and afterwards found a place aA h'gh school teacher.' In those days 'I recall seeing him but rarely when he would be escorting out-of-town vlslt ora over the building. Hl height was ac centuated by his long, tralced, Iron-gray beard, and his politeness verged on courtliness. His successor as superintendent was Oeorgs H. lne. who was even taller and much more angular, with short whlHkers, if I remember correctly. Super intendent Lane was so tall that he used to come fhto the room and place his chair, at the edge of the teacher's 'plat form so as to permit, when tie' sat down, for hjs feet to rest on the floor without doubling his knees up like a Jack-knife. Either he was more In evidence around the school than his predecessor, or 1 was beginning to take more notice. .The next superintendent I remember was Henry M. James, who came here in 18S2 from Cleveland, O. He was an altogether different type, more heavy set, with face round and ruddy, reddish beard cropped close, a remnant of hair of the same color receding before his baldness. He was more bustling, but likewise generally Impressive, exercising sort of fatherly oversight and shining conspicuously at all public school func tions. While the grades constituted the so called Central school, because of its occupancy of the same building as the high school, the ssme principal had charge, aided generally by an assistant principal. The principal at the time I entered the school was W. H. Merritt, of whom, however, I have no personal recollection. He was succeeded two years later by C. H. Crawford, a grls sied, red-haired matf, who ruled the boys as much by fear of him as by what he did to them. His assistant principal was a man by the name of Nelson Learned, who, whatever his accomplishments, also achieved similar popularity with the boys of the lower grades. After him camo Charles D, Hlne, an assertive, wiry down caster, whose recognised abilities soon called him back to Connecticut where, I CHANGES IN OHIO'S CONSTITUTION Forty:Two Amendments to Be Voted On September 3. .After a sesulon lasting fW months, at and exfwnsejLof 12,000.000, the Ohio Con stitutional convention agreed on forty two amendments U the present state constitution which will be submitted to a vote of the people at a special election on September I. The proposed amendments deal with almost every phase of political reform and touch upon new conditions in com mercial, industrial, economic and social life that have developed since the state charter was adopted In 1861. The most Important are the right of suffrage for suffrage and the Initiative and referendum home rule for municipalities, reform In the civil Jury system by allowing nine Jurors to return a verdict, reform in the Judicial system to provide for only one trial and one appeal in most cases, per mitting the Issuance of bonds for public highways, licensing liquor traffic on basis of population, and a provision for Income, inheritance, mineral production and franchise taxes. . The fiercest contest In the convention was waged over woman suffrage and the Initiative and referen dum and recall, the latter succeeding with the recall omitted. Among other proposals adopted are: To put private banks under state In spection, heretofore impossible, and to make stockholders of banks liable to de positors to the amount of double their stock. To allow the enactment of laws to regu late the sale of stocks, bonds, securities and other personal property. ' To modify the governor's veto power by reducing two-thlrds to three-fifths the proportion of the assembly needed to overturn sn executive veto. To allow women to be appointed notar ies public and to positions In state In- Fiction of Tragedy Disproved. Baltimore American. An example of the fiction which Is sure to occur In stories of great dis asters by Irresponsible persons, is tho story of . the dlnner-drlnklng party on the Titanic the night of the eolllsloi at which Captain Smith was alleged to have been present. This story has been com pletely disproved and the memory of the gallant commander cleared from the charge of having so neglected his duty. It Is greatly to the credit of Chairman Smith of the senate committee, that he took unusual pains to get the testimony of reputable eyewitnesses on that point. Rewarding Daty Well Doae. New York Sun. A gold medal from congress.. and a silver loving cup from the Titanio's survivors are no more than Captain Rostron deserves, but he is the kind of man who takes more Joy In crowded hours of duty well done than In ac cepting the rewards of conspicuous merit.

Mr. Hin made way as principal for Homer P. Iewls, of whom I shall speak more at length later. The system of special subject teachers or supervisors, was not at that time very largely developed, but we had a special teacher of music In Miss LucrerJa Rogers, and a teacher of drawing in Miss Kate Ball. Miss Rogers was already middle-aged. She came once or twice a week and tried to drill us In chorus music, but, I fear, wth poor success. She, herself, was quite nearsighted, and could not always ' tell, ' unless she kept her glasses on," whether we really sang or merely went through the motions, and we took advantage of this oppor tunity whenever It presented. Mlas Ball was a strikingly picturesque figure, and put us through courses of penmanship and drawing once or twice a week. In dress she was a fashion-plate, and made herself look mors artistlo even than the pictures which she drew za models for our crayons and pencils. The Janitor of the building was als a functionary to be reckoned with. I re member one Janitor named Qulnlan, be because he had a boy in his family about my age, who Initiated me Into the mysteries of some of the more inac cessible ports of the building. The Janitor used to have helpers at times, and one of these helpers proved to hare a re markable career. I first knew him merely as "Carl," a round, rosy-faced, - yellow haired Swede, about sixteen years old, sweeping the halls and steps, and ringing the bell, unable " to speak a word of English. He evidently had a fair school' lng in Sweden, for he came Into onr room and studied there with us for sev ers! weeks, reciting lessons In reading, writing and spelling, and then went on to the next room above. He kept this up until he had acquired facility with oor language, and had reached the class In which he would have been hsd he re mained at school In Sweden. Although earning his own living by his Janitor work while at the same time going to school, he entered hito all the school boy activities, and In a few years grad uated with high honors. He was Carl M Johanson, Cornell's famous center and football captain. He studied law at Har vard, and played with the Harvard team He coached for awhile, and then went In for the practice of law at Duluth, where he Is or was at last accounts, one of the leading attorneys at the bar. Another High school Janitor was Thomas Falconer, a chunky Scotchman, who with' Increasing attendance and rooms occupied, hsd more work put on him, and systematized It as It has not been before. Mr. Falconer was genial and accommodating. He was assistant building Inspector for many years until his death. stltutlons where wmen and children are cared for.

John Stevenson, Jr., of Sharon, Pa., told the steel trast probers a moving tale of being put out of business twice by the trust Each time he sold out and made money, which accounts for his fortune of 110,0(0,000.
