J THE SCHOOL BOARD 1
A L.nTTBR from H. C. Spink of
THk Chlloqiiln In another part of
thts page, calls intention to a state
of .iffalrs liiat needs airing.
The, 'correspondent htameo C. R
Ilowman, member of tho list ills
Irlcl board In control at Chlloqiiln,
and candidate for director on tho.
central county NChool board at next
Mcnday'n election, for the condi
tion of affairs at Chllnn.nln.
' Tho Herald li not trying to fix
tba responsibility, but Mr. Spink
ban long" resided In the Chlloqiiln
community and hU signed mate
hiei'.t mart carry weight.
flomn -ne In eTldently responsible
for wasto and mismanagement. That
mhch In clearly shown.
For two yearn Chllnquln ha been
trying to establish a school that
will servq the purpose! of a mod
ern growing community.
After two years all they hare to
show are two" sets of plans ,at
double the necessary cot; $15,000
tied up In a defunct bankand no
actual rtart made or material on,
'band to make a start toward con
ntruetlon. I
The warning that The Herald
fiei' In the whole woeful mess Is
plain: Our school must ho kept
nut of politics. '
Next Monday tho people of the.
county outside Klamath Falls will
vote for fire school directors. Let
I he electoral, see to It that hinl
nesi men and not polltlcann fill the
places. n
Wo can conceive of no more im
portant office to be tlttad by public
cholcn thin the office of school di
rector. Tho edifice of any com-
munlty'a future Is reared upon tba
pound Judgment of Its citizens, and
the elementary training received In
the public school Is Ike bash of
good citizenship.
Wisdom exercised by the voter
Monday will put the control of the
r.rbools In capable hands, and avoid
on a large scale such fiascos as has
mirked the attempt of Chlloqoln
people to secure a sultablo school
for their community.
An parj. of a general policy,
which Is .opposed to centralization
of noutrol lo all public affairs The
Herald bat never advocated th
county unit plan of school govern
ment.
Wo realize that the plan has ad
vantages. If the men chosen to ad
minister school affalra are of sound
Judgment and not bound by polit
ical ties. We neither -condemn, nor
upprnve, but w are deeply Inter-
Kited In peeing the theory applied.
Rut the fountain of education
mint be kept uncontamlnatrd. Par
ents and tax-payers cannot' afford
lo let the Bcbool system of the
county become a pawn In polities.
Tho only suggestion w desire to
make Is that the voters of the rural
dlfdrlrts view Monday's election In
Its true light and cast their ballots
conscientiously, eschewing personal
consideration! and weighing the
merits of' tbo candidates ag serious
ly as the Importancn of the office
Warrants.
For the success or failure of the
county unit plan depends upon the
flvo men who administer It. Kls
entitled to fair trial and fair
start. No office.'? within the choice
of fb peopln aro more linnorttot
than the flvo offices to be filled
Monday. Wo are certain that rot
ors generally sense the situation at
Its' true worth and will pass Judg
ment accordingly.

It has been 4old me that It Is a
possibility thst our county school
superintendent has a choice, of a
board, as to who should be elected,
and such a ticket Is In thn field.
H this Is so, I shall volo against
every one or them If I Can (Ind out
who they are. The superintendent
Is thn servant of' tbo people or this
rounty, and her duties aro very
plain. She ha no placo In politics.
Change Political Meddling
I can knowingly say that It was
her meddling In the school bouse
site In Cblloqnln that caused thn
first mix-up In our district. Sho
has nothing to do with such af
fairs, and had she kept nut and let
the people themselves settle their
own dirrerences. If any, today I
feel sure Wo would b on afo
ground, with no lo to the tax
payers. Perhaps I have said too much;
maybe not enough. At least thn
question Is one or the. people's aH a
whole. If I havo suggested any
