Pilot Town, La., Aug. 11, '13. Being desirous to maintain the wel- fare of the education of our children; I am suggesting as a means of tempor- ary solution of the present school di- lemma the following propositions; 1st. That Paul T. Hingle withdraw his aspirations to the position of School Superintendent. 2nd. That the Board for the purpose of selecting its teachers for the next term at a special meeting called for that purpose recognize Edwin C. Kohn as School Superintendent, the said Edwin C. Kohn to be advised 'by the ward members of the Board, as has been the custom in the past. 3rd. After this that the State Super- intendent of Education recommend to - the Board for the office of Parish Su- - perintendent a trained school man, known to and recognized by. him as be- ing beyond the influence of partisan polities, provided he. be possessed of - every qualification required by the education law (Burk Bill.) ; I am mailing a copy of this letter to Mr. Jthn C. De Armas, President of the School board, Mr. Edwth C. Kobn, Secrctiry of the Board, Mr. Paul T. Hingle, T. J. Harris, State Superin- tendent and the Parish Press. I feel that all well thinkint peop1 ~; will agree with nm.' thagl sdleythinig ~a sould be done and t ia a.si earlj as possible if the schools are to open on 7 October $.lt4013, aa in the past. I make this slggestion regaidess cf tl who is right or wrong in the matter'as' f"'the time for quibbling over this feature is long past and prompt action on the part of the Board must be taken. GEO.

Tom said in a voice none too steady: "I wish I could tell you I know you're mistaken. But I'm afraid you're not. I know they do those things-, a you said-'for the good of the party!' i Oh," he broke out fiercely, "It's that sort of game I can't understand. I can never understand. I know them all. And personally they're white men, ten. der-hearted, clean, honorable. But pro. fessionally- Why, for instance, there's my brother-in-law, Mark Rob- ertson. He and Grace have been mar- ried over three years now, and his love for her is still a sort of adoration. He's the perfect lover-husband. But as a lawyer he won the name of being a bloodhound. And, as a politician- well, he's like the rest. They'll all re- sort to the dirtiest trickery, the rot- tenest sort of corruption. I can't make it out. But why should dad's political deal affect you and me? rm not to blame if-" "And I'm not blaming you. But I've been brought up to hate Jim Blake and his crowd and to pray for a chance to get back at them. I know that isn't a meek and womanly way to talk. But it's the way I feel. I-I loved my fa- ther so! My square, honest, white fa- ther. And they killed him. Ah, there's something coming to that crowd! To Blake and all of them! And it's com- ing from me. Some day I may be able to deliver the goods! I-I ougbn't to talk so to you," she caught herself up, half apologetically. "I'm afraid I hurt you. Perhaps you didn't fully know-" "Why in blazes did it have to be your father, of all men, that they chose to-!" "It didn't He was just one of hun- dreds that the party machine smashed. He used to say the machine was like the Juggernaut car, crushing every- thing that dared stand in its path. Jim Blake guides that car. And he guides it over the bodies of better men. He and his crowd prosper. But some- thing's .coming to. them, just the same." "But-" "The machine has tried to run over the wrong man at last, And its joints and wheels are rattling with fear. Standish became an insurgent. But he had the cleverness and the strength not to be crushed. And he has rallied weaker stupider insurgents around him, till lie has formed an obstacle the machine can't override. He's done more. He's roused the whole people. And the people are watching their rep- resentatives so closely, at last, that a lot of crooks have to play fair or lose their jobs. Oh, I'm following Standish's work! When he clashed horns with Jim Blake over this Mullins railroad bill it d!d me good all over. For when Standish defeats the Mullins bill he'll break the backbone of Jim Blake's po- litical power. Yes, and he'll smash Jim Blake's plan to put Governor Rob- ertson in the speaker's chair. He'll keep Robertson out. And he'll< sit there himself, And when he does- his gavel blows will beat the Jugger. naut car into scrap-iron." "Wanda!" protested Tom, amazed at her tirade. "Haven't we better things I/ t:zt~r t trijnar Ir~lttfeYs~?:- 1''PIn tiia~d about your father and see if he won't-" "No! You mustn't. You must prom- rise not to tell him who I am. Promise!"' "Oh, I promise, if you like. But I .1 can't bear to have you go on hating dad. He's the kindest, dearest old chap* alive. Maybe he didn't know-" "Does the organization do anything Jim Blake doesn't know and dictate?" "Mister Thomas Blake!" paged a liverned boy, at the far end of the cord ridor. "Mister Thomas Blake!" Tom caught sight of a telegram on the tray the lad carried. But before he could signal the boy himself, the latter had gone out of sight. "He's carried it to the bar with all the unerring instinct of a homing "tVm sorry," 85.. 8 i Didn't no It Meant So Much to You," dove!" grumbled Tom. "And he' bawl 'Mister Thomas Blake!' in thit disreputable place for a solid hour i I don't go and choke him off!" Wanda watched her suitor nhriry away in search of his quai'ry, and -her dark eyes took -on a tender'er. light than ever he had seen In them. Then, at sound of a chance iword behind her, she becapne all at once her alert busi- nesslike self again. She glanced into -a little mirror that swung obliquely from the top of the switchboard. In: this bit of glass, without tiurning, she could command 4 full view t othe amen corner a- few feet to the rear of the switchboard railL Three men had seated themselves there. One she recognized as the Hon. Tim Neligan; and a- second as the Hon. ; Silas Gregg,, a leggy and. tou'o. 'ieaded representative from Xanswva A woman entered a railway. train crowded with winter tourists and ha pened to take adeat in front of a e ly married -couple. She was lhardijt seated before the couple began making remarks about her which some of the psne nsieir must haver~ hgeard i'r.~ ; J "e lst yei" opt n ioi -freel ni~ticIS d 'wth Iote) les The third of the trio was an iron*-gray man of clean-cut face and scrupulously well groomed aspect., Wanda knew him well, by sight. For whenever political crises swept Wash- w ington he was as certain to appear as re are vultures 'to congregate for the Li feast. He was Ralph Van Dyke, a !' New Yorker, and counsel for a great it railroad. His was one of the shrewd- n , est legal minds in America. And he 11. had so carefully trained that mind to c- the million dark intricacies of corpot- o- tion law as to be doubly worth the th. e, nual fortune hereaped from'the "inter b- ests.' What Jim Blake was in politics, r- ,Ralph Van Dyke was in corporation is law. The chance word Wanda had a. Just overheard had been spoken by it him. ti "Are things still going as badly with - the Mullins bill as when you wired me e- today?" he had asked Neligoal. t- "Oh," returned Neligan, "we had the ce house inched when it was reported. Wl We'd have passed it, hands down, if to we could have jammed it through then. But now-we may as well stand up to e facts-we're as good as, licked." o "But, gentlemen,' urged Van Dyke 't impatiently, "this bill has to pass." it "Sure it has," gloomily assented - Neligan. "Only it can't. Unless some- a thing explodes Standish before it 's comes to a vote. Oh, it's the people! 'o They're reform-crazy. They don't know what they want, and nine years out ot to ten they don't want anything except tB o stay asleep and let the right crowd handle the country. But when a mat, like Standish gets them to listen to Shim, they all wake up and yell for re- Sform and purity. in politics as hard as a 'waking baby squalls fcr its bottle. They've made him t popular idol." "The people!" scoffed Van Dyke. "T 'hey make an idol one minate and overturn it the next." "That's right," agreed Gregg, "but the Mullins bill will be defeated before they get time to overturn Standish. e The people ar' awake. They really seem to have an idea we ought to keep some of our promises. And, say! After all, we did promise them a lot of things." :. "Did we?" echoed 'Neligan. "We s made our platform look like a cross: r. section. of the 'Ten Commandments, e fringed with pages of Pilgrim's Prog- h ress. Yah! That's the trouble. We're d over-promised." (d "If we could loosen Standish's pull te with the parsons," said Neligan, "we'd 1e have him against the ropes iai one e. round." 9- "Now you are talking sanity," ap- a proved the lawyer. "That was just ie what I was waiting to suggest." 's "Well, we didn't wait for. you to sug- h gest it," retorted Neligan. "We aren't 4 corporation law-contortionists, per- 'I haps, but we've got a few grains of 11 gray matter left. That's the first stunt 0- ,we tried. We put good men on the h case to look up Standish's record-to b- find one break that we could hang a 11 story on."' it "Well?" -"Well, from their reports, Standish r seems to 'have led a life that would make Saint' Anthony and Sir' Galahad at and the _Pilgrim ;fathers lblck like a re buinch of sousead Pendearleioura nder."

The Woman.

Tom said in a voice none too steady:"I wish I could tell you I know

you're mistaken. But I'm afraid you'renot. I know they do those things-, ayou said-'for the good of the party!'

i Oh," he broke out fiercely, "It's thatsort of game I can't understand. I cannever understand. I know them all.And personally they're white men, ten.der-hearted, clean, honorable. But pro.fessionally- Why, for instance,there's my brother-in-law, Mark Rob-ertson. He and Grace have been mar-ried over three years now, and hislove for her is still a sort of adoration.He's the perfect lover-husband. Butas a lawyer he won the name of beinga bloodhound. And, as a politician-well, he's like the rest. They'll all re-sort to the dirtiest trickery, the rot-tenest sort of corruption. I can't makeit out. But why should dad's politicaldeal affect you and me? rm not toblame if-"

"And I'm not blaming you. But I'vebeen brought up to hate Jim Blake andhis crowd and to pray for a chance toget back at them. I know that isn'ta meek and womanly way to talk. Butit's the way I feel. I-I loved my fa-ther so! My square, honest, white fa-ther. And they killed him. Ah, there'ssomething coming to that crowd! ToBlake and all of them! And it's com-ing from me. Some day I may be ableto deliver the goods! I-I ougbn't totalk so to you," she caught herself up,half apologetically. "I'm afraid I hurtyou. Perhaps you didn't fully know-"

"Why in blazes did it have to beyour father, of all men, that theychose to-!"

"It didn't He was just one of hun-dreds that the party machine smashed.He used to say the machine was likethe Juggernaut car, crushing every-thing that dared stand in its path. JimBlake guides that car. And he guidesit over the bodies of better men. Heand his crowd prosper. But some-thing's .coming to. them, just thesame."

"But-""The machine has tried to run over

the wrong man at last, And its jointsand wheels are rattling with fear.Standish became an insurgent. But hehad the cleverness and the strengthnot to be crushed. And he has ralliedweaker stupider insurgents aroundhim, till lie has formed an obstacle themachine can't override. He's donemore. He's roused the whole people.And the people are watching their rep-resentatives so closely, at last, that alot of crooks have to play fair or losetheir jobs. Oh, I'm following Standish'swork! When he clashed horns withJim Blake over this Mullins railroadbill it d!d me good all over. For whenStandish defeats the Mullins bill he'llbreak the backbone of Jim Blake's po-litical power. Yes, and he'll smashJim Blake's plan to put Governor Rob-ertson in the speaker's chair. He'llkeep Robertson out. And he'll< sitthere himself, And when he does-his gavel blows will beat the Jugger.naut car into scrap-iron."

"Wanda!" protested Tom, amazed ather tirade. "Haven't we better thingsI/ t:zt~r t trijnar Ir~lttfeYs~?:- 1''PIn tiia~d

about your father and see if hewon't-"

"No! You mustn't. You must prom-rise not to tell him who I am. Promise!"'

"Oh, I promise, if you like. But I.1 can't bear to have you go on hatingdad. He's the kindest, dearest oldchap* alive. Maybe he didn't know-"

"Does the organization do anythingJim Blake doesn't know and dictate?"

"Mister Thomas Blake!" paged aliverned boy, at the far end of the cordridor. "Mister Thomas Blake!"

Tom caught sight of a telegram onthe tray the lad carried. But beforehe could signal the boy himself, thelatter had gone out of sight.

"He's carried it to the bar with allthe unerring instinct of a homing

"tVm sorry," 85.. 8 i Didn't noIt Meant So Much to You,"

dove!" grumbled Tom. "And he'bawl 'Mister Thomas Blake!' in thitdisreputable place for a solid hour iI don't go and choke him off!"

Wanda watched her suitor nhriryaway in search of his quai'ry, and -herdark eyes took -on a tender'er. lightthan ever he had seen In them. Then,at sound of a chance iword behind her,she becapne all at once her alert busi-nesslike self again. She glanced into

-a little mirror that swung obliquelyfrom the top of the switchboard. In:this bit of glass, without tiurning, shecould command 4 full view t otheamen corner a- few feet to the rear ofthe switchboard railL

Three men had seated themselvesthere. One she recognized as the Hon.Tim Neligan; and a- second as theHon. ; Silas Gregg,, a leggy and. tou'o.'ieaded representative from Xanswva

A woman entered a railway. traincrowded with winter tourists and hapened to take adeat in front of a ely married -couple. She was lhardijtseated before the couple began makingremarks about her which some of thepsne nsieir must haver~ hgeard i'r.~ ;

The third of the trio was an iron*-grayman of clean-cut face and scrupulouslywell groomed aspect.,

Wanda knew him well, by sight. Forwhenever political crises swept Wash-

w ington he was as certain to appear asre are vultures 'to congregate for theLi feast. He was Ralph Van Dyke, a!' New Yorker, and counsel for a greatit railroad. His was one of the shrewd-

n , est legal minds in America. And he11. had so carefully trained that mind toc- the million dark intricacies of corpot-o- tion law as to be doubly worth the th.

e, nual fortune hereaped from'the "interb- ests.' What Jim Blake was in politics,r- ,Ralph Van Dyke was in corporation

is law. The chance word Wanda hada. Just overheard had been spoken byit him.ti "Are things still going as badly with

- the Mullins bill as when you wired mee- today?" he had asked Neligoal.

t- "Oh," returned Neligan, "we had the

ce house inched when it was reported.Wl We'd have passed it, hands down, ifto we could have jammed it through then.But now-we may as well stand up to

e facts-we're as good as, licked."o "But, gentlemen,' urged Van Dyke

't impatiently, "this bill has to pass."it "Sure it has," gloomily assented

- Neligan. "Only it can't. Unless some-a thing explodes Standish before it's comes to a vote. Oh, it's the people!

'o They're reform-crazy. They don't knowwhat they want, and nine years out otto ten they don't want anything except tB

o stay asleep and let the right crowdhandle the country. But when a mat,like Standish gets them to listen to

Shim, they all wake up and yell for re-Sform and purity. in politics as hard asa 'waking baby squalls fcr its bottle.They've made him t popular idol."

"The people!" scoffed Van Dyke."T 'hey make an idol one minate andoverturn it the next."

"That's right," agreed Gregg, "butthe Mullins bill will be defeated beforethey get time to overturn Standish.

e The people ar' awake. They reallyseem to have an idea we ought to keepsome of our promises. And, say! Afterall, we did promise them a lot ofthings.":. "Did we?" echoed 'Neligan. "We

s made our platform look like a cross:r. section. of the 'Ten Commandments,e fringed with pages of Pilgrim's Prog-h ress. Yah! That's the trouble. We're

d over-promised."(d "If we could loosen Standish's pullte with the parsons," said Neligan, "we'd1e have him against the ropes iai onee. round."

9- "Now you are talking sanity," ap-a proved the lawyer. "That was just

ie what I was waiting to suggest."'s "Well, we didn't wait for. you to sug-h gest it," retorted Neligan. "We aren't4 corporation law-contortionists, per-'I haps, but we've got a few grains of11 gray matter left. That's the first stunt0- ,we tried. We put good men on the

h case to look up Standish's record-tob- find one break that we could hang a11 story on."'it "Well?"

-"Well, from their reports, Standishr seems to 'have led a life that wouldmake Saint' Anthony and Sir' Galahad

at and the _Pilgrim ;fathers lblck like are buinch of sousead Pendearleioura nder."

L d "'You're sure your' men let't nothingie uncovered?"' s.'"Do you thlnk wie'd overlook aniy*n- thing when the whole game hangs onI" it?" _

I ''That's right Van Dyke supple.L8 mented Gregg. 'We've beea over

Sshiplit'll cost Mark Robertson moirea than Smost people could uniderstand.

Self-respect and ambition and futureasnd-"I It isue will," agreed Neligan. "Let's
