Gordon of the Brown’s Valley Interlake Tribune, is making good in the high office of lieutenant governor as the presiding officer of the senate. The Sauk Rapids Sentinel strikes a responsive cord when it says: “Sam Y. Gordon for governor in '191'}, says the Independent. Sam is proving himself every day to be an uncompromising friend of the people. He’s going to be governor some day. He has the qualities that wear well, and even though 1912 may arrive be- fore the time is ripe for running him' there is always 1914 in the back- | ground.” From the moment that the bang Of{ his gravel first assembled the senate | at the present session, the lieulenanti governor has commanded the respect]‘ and admiration of all unprejudicedJ minds because of the fearlessness with which he has performed the arduous duties of the dignified posi—i tion of president of the senate. Efforts of the “old guard” tol swerve him from the path he be-| lieves to be the correct one have met with signal failure and that same path is leading the Brown’s Valley editor closer and closer to the hearts| | { of the people. NOT LIKE MOTHER USED TO SPANK. Superintendent Whittier of the Red Wing Training School, at the public hearing now being held to in- vestigate charges of cruelty, admits, ag does even some members of the board of control, that it is a prac-| tice to whip boy inmates. The superintendent lays great stress on the word “spanking’ and| has repeatedly told the that it was done as near like ”motheri committee | used to do it” as possible, while one! member of the board of control, who knew corporal punishment was being inflicted, said it wag the same sort of | whipping as was “commonly used in| our public schools and other insti- | tutions and at home.” ; Evidence has been offered and its truthfulness admitted by Mr. Whit-| tier that boys have been tied over a Store. contrivance after their 'Backs had been bared and a wet ti } applied and a strong man, armed with a leather lash 22 inches in‘length, has applied many blows. ;i Now there are not many mothers in the land, even though their:boys be the most unruly, who are going Qo admit that they have ever adminis- tered any such a hegmng’ and as a matter of fact, as Mr. Whittier prob- ably knows, mother’s method usually consists of a half dozen spats with a slipper or hair brush and then not on boys who have reached the ages of those sent to Red Wing. Likewise, it is just as rediculous to say ‘that such ‘methods are pur- sued in our public schools. As a matter of fact there is probably just one place in the state of Minnesota where flogging is made a practice and one of the established forms of dicipline and that is at the Red Wing Training School. ; As the investigation proceeds the public is becoming more and more convinced that the Red Wing insti- tution has not been all that should be and that former Senator Stephens is entitled to much credit in per- forming the distasteful task of caus- ing the abuses to be shown up.
