With candid pride we, pronounce our
county among the first in the rank SO far as

may be safely estimated at an average cost
of 5000 per mile.

the entire fund allowed him for travelling
expenses. The law prov; des that his sal
ary shall not be placed JeioW certain
amount-(it Is at the lowest legal notch
now)-and in addition to his salary. autho-
rIzes the Supervisors to allow him sum
sufficient to defray reasonable travelling
expenses NV if 500 in scrip, worth
from 90 t, 70 cents on the 81 is sufficient
to cover reasonable travelling expenses
over this extensive county We certainly
haven't learned how to travel vet. Trav
cling on foot is considered the most econun-
ical mode of locomnton. but even then the
SupernteDdents S65 or S7J would vani b
for toll. meals and ludsing. long before
each school in the county was visited
] he thing might be did" provided the
Superintendent went on foot and only paid
his toll over roads, bridges and and ferrys
and begged his meals nd lud yings but even
then some ot our taxpayers might object
to such a plan as this, as being rather
shabby style for an official to travel in, to
say nothing ot the Inconvenience to the
official himself
rs the schools are not all taught at the
Fl; me season some in the Spring, other, in
Summer, Fall or Winter, trips would have
to be made at d ffcrent times and seasons.
For instance, if Il sch oil was tau h. in
Burney Valley District in March, 4.pr,l
and May. it would be necessary to make ii
fr p to visit il s)ne time in those months,
ard if the sch ,ol in Fall River District
Was taught in July, Augu,t, aud Septem-

be necessary, and if the Trustees in Pit
liver Valley District put their school in
operation during Oc ober. Nv cmber. De-

would invpwr tw" tr rs that one District;
Shingetown aud other Districts are also

necessary TO visit the schuo of the county.
and the 500 allowed him in scrip f,r that
purpose is simpya burlesque on tn pro-
