" "STATEHOOD FOR NEW MEXICO" GCficUs SiCCy Cftatter Dr. Charles Klllott. head of Harvard university, created conldcrnb!e of k sensation at a recent banquet of the National Association for the Promo tion of Industrial Education, by stating that all men are not equal and can not be. He further decliircd that children should be sorted out and forced by law to pursue certain studios nnd that each child should be forced to learn a certain trade. Dr. Elliott has long ranked among the leaders of educxtion In this coun try, but It now appears that he Is suffering from an overdose of education. In other words. It appears that he has been ducked In the educational pool, beyond his depths, and Is In danger of being overcome by swallowing more brain development than he Is capable of. "That all men are created equal," has stood the test of a vast number of years us compared with Dr. Klllotfs theories. To declare that such a sentiment is wrong, Indicates that Dr. Elliott. has reached a point where he considers his own brain so far devel oped that the average man haa'not the same powers of reasoning. There are some points In Dr. Elliott's talk well worth considering, but they are by no means original with him. They have worrlort our educators long before Elliott loomed up on the horizon and they will probably con tinue to occasion debate long after Klllott is gathered to his fathers. Elliott says that pupils In our public schools nowadays are taught a mattering of a whole lot of things for which they have no use In after life, and that such teaching Is time wasted, or words to that effect. No one doubts for a minute that the public schools of this country are far from perfect. They have been and still are undergoing a process of evolution. But the public schools of America excel anything of the kind In the world. This country has the only educational system In the world where an absolutely poor child can secure a higher education at the expense of the whole people. The theory that all men are created equal Is sound. It has stood a strong test and has resulted In the birth of the greatest democracy on earth. It Is conceded that after birth, some men so debase themselves and so lower themselves as to lose equality with their fellow men. Nor does this apply entirely to those of lower birth. On the contrary, children of the humblest origin have given us our greatest educators, our greatest statesmen, our grealeut professional men In all lines, our greatest soldiers and writers and patriots.. The children of our wealthier classes. In the time when It was the custom among those classes to bear children.' have-seldom lived up to the opportunities which were theirs. But when Ellott proposes to sort out the children, as he rudely terms It, and to force them Into a certain line of education, he reduces tha school aystem of the country to a condition of affairs which prevailed at the time our forefathers declared the colonies free from British tyranny. Klliott has swung about the educational circle, so to speak, and has returned to his starting point but little improved In his views all of which adds to the strength of that old adage that one can not hatch chickens out of geese eggs. What Elliott should have said was that the people can be over-educated. He could make such a statement from personal experience. It Is to be hoped that whatever our educators and legislators may do, they will never abolish the public schools in which the child of any condition of life can now secure an education to fit him for any position In our Ameri can life. That. .many children are damaged in educational work by a failure of teacher or parent to properly diagnosis their Inclination tow ards a certain line of work. Is well known. Hut Elliott should remember that for the one child that is damaged, thousands are turned out well equipped, useful Amer ican citizens. That every child should leam a trade Is logical fur the hind that can work as well as the brain, produces the best equipped man for all 'emer gencies. To force the children by law, however, to pursue one trade regardless of all else as suggested by Klllott is pure rot Hnd a relic of the days when a man was not a mart and when all men were not equal. One who- read the address made by Elliott would be Inclined to place him in the old fogle class. When the equality of the American child Is de stroyed,, the end of .he public school and of the American government by the people. Is ut an end. However, it Is not likely that Elliott's remarks will esult"1nHftyiTil!lK-m"re than a bit of cheap advertising. h I Wfiere is tfie Court fflartiaC t About 'AtV most disgraceful spectacle the American public has viewed recently has' been the row among the gold straps In the navy. The sight of a corps .of trained men, supposed to be the very embodiment of discipline, crit icising their superiors, fault-finding und babbling Incoherently about a lot of petty matters In the navy Is enough to make the averuge citizen ask what has become of the good, old-fashioned court martial. The Washington Herald terms thee men "gabbling officers," and the term applies right well. The Herald severely scores such Insubordination in an editorial which the complaining officers have well merited. The Herald says: 'It seems as If something should be done in the gabbling military and naval officers. It was only the other day that I jeutf nanL-rf'oloiiel (Jlenn. of tha Infantry arm. exposed the vulnerable portions of the military establish ment to im eager and expectant audience represented In a session of the Duughtrs of the American Revolution In New York, and now Hear Admiral B. H. Mcl'alla, 1'. 8. N., retired, a most efficient and gallant officer. Is cred ited in an Interview with expressing the view that a civilian Is of no earthly use In the position of e rel.iry of the navy. He goes on to say that the budding and organization of a navy require experience, and he thinks it would be as profitable and proper to put a lawyer or doctor In charge of a great railroad as It Is to place a civilian at the head of the navy. This must ! Interesting reading to the civilians who at present occupy the positions of secretary and assistant secretary of the navy. , "This is the first time, we believe, that any navul officer has had the temerity to assail the system with such particularity. It Is safe to assume that even the critics of the Mialla class would be no more contented if they had a naval officer at the head of the navy department than they are with Mr. Metcalf In that position, or than they were with any of Mr. Metcalfs predecessors. The civilian secretary of the navy has at his command all the expert advice he wants, and he is freer of the ridiculous prejudice and the tron-ciad "traditions" which have done more to stand In lh way of real progress in the navy than any existing system of administration which Is so vociferously ami volubly assailed. "About the worst thing which could happen to the navy department and to the navy Itself would be to have a naval officer in place of the civilian sec. retary of the navy. It Is hardly possible that Hear Admiral McCallu, who is a man of good sound common tu-une, has been correctly quoted." A dispatch informs us that the price of wooden legs has been reduce. I almost one half because of a row between the various manufacturers. It Is to be honed that the average man won't need a wooden leg soon, but there is much comfort in the fact that they are cheaper anyhow. It Is said that it will cost Thaw his fortune to prove himself insane. The fact that a sensational killing is likely to cost a fortune, will do more thin all the laws to pr.event sui h liHppy events among the people of the Thaw -White Class.

This The General Demand of the Well-Informed of the World has always been for a simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value; a laxative which physicians could sanction for family use because its com ponent parts arc known to them to lc wholesome and truly Lsnicficiul in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action. In supplying that demand with its ex cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and F.lixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies on the merits of the laxative for its remark able success. That is one of many reasons why Syrup of Figs and l'Jixir of Senna is given the preference y the Well-informed.
