Friend is word used in II loose,
and in an exact sense. In loose
sense, any one Is fri,ni who docs
you kindness, Just as hc was the
wounded Samaritau's ncig ghbor who

general sense tho whole philosophy of
friendship is summed Up in So!omon's

Condition Of Free Schools I'm
Fairfield.

The School Commissioner of Fair.
field County has courtcously furnished
us with an elaborate tablo of the num-
Der Of free schools in the County,
when formed, by whom taught, &c.,
up to April lst. The table is too
long for publication, and few would
study it, We, therefore, prefer to
give n few statistics from it ourselves.
There arc 33 teachers employed,
10 in the white free schools, aud Is in
tho colorcd. Ten Of tho teachers of
tho white schools arc of the first
grade, and receive $50 per month !;
live arc of the second grade, and re-
ocivc $50 per month. These fifteen
teachers, up to April lst> had taught
1853 white pupils for two months and
eleven tiftccnths Of Il month, at cost
of $1,000.
There are 8 teachers employed in
the colorcd free schools eight of tho
first grade $3.50 per month y five Of
tho second grade ($S5 per month y
and i've Of the third (S!5 per mouth. }
These eighteen teachers, up to April
l,t, had taught 1928 colorcd scholars
for three months and sevrn.ninths of
u month, at cost of S2,323.
To run all these schools from April
to tho end Of this month will have
taken eleven hundred dollars mouth,
the whito schools taking $G15, and
the c'' red Si25 per month. That is,
t"t c st If the white pupils is ST SO
each, per month aud of the coorcd
pupils 81 cents each, per month.
From q careful study Of the table
we believe justice is being done to all
parties, though seven dollars is hciry
spent on tho white children to every
four spent on the colorcd children.
This Is owing to tho white schools
containing far loss number of ru.
pills, and the pay of tho teachers be-
ing necessarily independent of the
number of the pupils in the school.
1t has cost us some labor to get the
above simple statements from tho tn
bic before us. Tho reader can now
Indulge his reflections as to the poll.
cy of the matter of free schools for
himself. We believe good can be
gotten out Of it by wisdom but to,
tai indifference and blind prejudice
may lose the good we else might gaio,
by refusing to attempt. We feel
sure, for cxnmplc, that first. class
graded public school for whitc chill.
d'cn can be established in every
County town Of tho State. One
must, Of course, be established for
colored children too. But for ten
years at least, tho relative cost will be
just what it is now-S7 to the whites,
and ST. to the blacks; and these ele.
Yen dollars paid in tho form of a tax,
will do more, even for tho whites,
than the $50 at least NOW spent 10 the
shape Of tuition.

Allow me short space in your val

ono of our County Officials. Two or
three months ago, County Commits.

to the people Of Fairfield, announcing
his Withdrawal f.om public affairs,
and scvering all cohntc ion with the
Office Of County Commissioner. He
has also rec,n'ly written letter, cx.
pressing his disgust with politics and
and with the present administration
OF the State government. Many have
given him credit for sincerity in these
declarations, and perhaps we too
might have been deceived, had we
not hnd our eyes open. Alas f! for
human crcdulity. tn the face of what
has been stated, 'and it cannot be
