The narrow guage railroad cai into use with banners flying, back up by expert engineers with mat] matical demonstrations, proving, 1 yond a doubt, that the so call "standard guage" must give way the more economical and practii narrow guage. But the ordeal of business a: passenger trafic proved too much i the "new idea," and finally it beoai settled as wise railroad managemei to broaden wherever possible the ni row guage to the standard widl One of the many reasons that 1 to the change, was the isolation si rounding the narrow guage car; could go only over its own line, or - ' ?

The narrow guage teacher, no mj ter where found, does not believe . broadening his guage. He is cc tent, and even at times happy, in 1 ing busy in running backward a forward on his short, narrow tra( repeating himself like the pendulu of an old. time clock. His love of t narrow increases with his experiem nnr? a? time moves on. he becomes friendly terms with littleness. I few educational acquaintances a like himself," narrow guage; the boc with which he is most familiar as teacher, are both thin and narrc He often consults and follows t< books made by men weaker and m< Darrow than himself. If he happens to stray into a sob as a visitor, it is as an over wise cri and not as a learner, searching mole hills that seem to him v< mountains. As years increase his education short sighteduess, he sees no spec good in educational gatherings, a has next to no faith in articles works on education. Teaching him is a grind, and the most ind trious grinder is the best teach The worst feature of the picture that the narrow guage shut ups tej 4-^v ohnf nr\a TViPV Ul-UCiR IU fCLurnt quu? u|/?. magnify littleness that children i taught that they are accomplish] great things, when they are mer< as it were, beating the air witr feather.

There are many people in the Si ?f| who did not and do not like C fflPH ernor Tillman or his methods, i swallowed him when he became party's nominee and who are wil] to judge him fairly by his a These are not committed to oppos or supporting him.
