u.s. The abolition of the free pass
system by the railways prompts the
Omaha { Neb.) Republican to observe:
No matter how many benefits the
editor may receive from it he gives
much more in the end than he re-
ceives ltnot only enables the whole
world of dead beats to ask favors
which otherwise they would blush
to ask, or not ask at all but il per-
mits railway companies hotel pro-
prietors, ETC., to expect rec notices,
which, under circumsi anccs, they
would have paid for. The result
is that these men pay every one else
except the editor, and the editor
takes his mess Of pottage like a fool
and remains poor all his lie.

the hay producing region Of the
United States is coIored in the five
shades Of rcd, and we find from it
that the greatest amount Of hay is
made in Maine, Vermont, New York,
Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska and Kan
sas. Generally speaking, the bay
crop covers the northern part of the
country east of the Rocky Mountains
and down to the lire where the cot
ton crop begins. California and
Washington Territory also contain
tracts marked four, while louisiana
and Texas contain districts marked
number two. New York. Minnesota

amount Of hay, in neither of them
the produce going below number

How Ia ItP

In the northern part Of HopeWell town,
ship, this county, pheasant had built
her nest In raVine not far from o iaIm
house. 1t was soon discovered by the
proprietors, who took the eggs out Of the
nest and instead put in a dozen guinea
eggs. Unexpectedly the pheasant did
not discover that her nest had been tam.
pered with, but went TO work and hatehed
a brood Of young guineas. It Is known
to all persons at all familiar with the
habits Of the pheasant, that the parent
bird gives peculiar cluck on the approach
Of any person, and In an instant every III.
tie pheasant Is hid-everything isquieton
the Potomac; no little pheasant can be
seen any place. When the danger ID past
the parent bird will call them together
again. In our school days we were Taught
that this was instinct. 1t was not taught
by the parent bird. II came just as nat.
ural TO the young pheasant 10 hide at q
given signal, a. It does TO Q young duck to
swim. The guinea has no such instinct,
but other traits peculiar to itseh. These
little guineas, however, st the sigma, hide
Just as though they were pheasants. How
Is it? Is It instinct, or have the young
guineas been taught by the pheasant how
10 conduct themselves during times Of
dangerG There is no doubt about the
facts Of the case. The old pheasant will
discover, however, finally when the
guineas begin to cackle, that somebody
has played q dlsgraceIul trick upon her.
The old bird will soon open her eyes to
tho fact that the pheasants that she has
loved 30 dearly and cared for tenderly,
are just simply no pheasants at sll-noth-
ing but the commonest kind OF guinea

Female Teachers and PEIncIpaIs--A
Forward step.

The Board OF Education took very
commendable forward step last evening
in The matter Of employing female leach
rrs and principals in the public schools ol
this city. Their employment rests with
the commissioners in each subdistrict
The usual course heretofore has been tol
the Board 10 direct the employment oI
male principals, and so many male and
so many female assistants, Gt specified
salaries, those designated for the female
teachers being only about half those al
lowed the males. The instruction given
70 local commissioners BY the action Of the
Board Of Education last evening is that
they shall iguore all distinction Of sex,
both as to persons appointed and as to
salaries paid. The Commissioners have
discretion TO employ ladies for either
principals or teachers where tho success
OF the schools will be best subserved
thereby, whether In the matter of qualifl'
cation or OF salary. Heretofore the sala-
ries have been uniform In all the districts
and fixed by the Board oi Education.
Now each district board oil commission
era Is vested with discretion to make just
such contracts With teachers and princi7
pal as they may deem expedient, except
that they are limited by tho Board Of Ed
ucatiou to certain figures. They cannot
exceed these, but may go as much below
them as the parties to the contract may
agree. Their action, as heretofore, will
be subject TO revision by the Board.
One operation Of this new policy is that
the prices paid IN one district may be very
different from those paid in another and
there is danger that 1t will lead to such
keen competition and undertaking as to
all some Of the places with Incompetence
This Is q danger TO be avoided. On the
other hand, 1t will be found that good
teachers will be 10 demand; there will be
competition among the districts as TO
which shall have them; and this will af.
ford teachers a constant stimulus to i'm.
prove their qualifications.
We trust the local boards will consclen.
tiOusly carry out the intention Of the
Board Of Education, that the lady teachers
shall have a fair and equal chance Tor
employment with tho male teachers,
and that a due regard for cheap.
ness will be tempered by . con.
sideratlon of the fact that the lowest
prices are not necessarily the cheapest.
II the salaries are run down to figures
which no qualified person can afford to
work for, the result will be that the quail.
ity of service will adjust itself to the pay.
Let US have fair pay for good service,
and let the ladies have an equal chance
with men both as TO place and as price.
The Board of Education intend this, and
il rests with the local boards to carry out
their intent in good faith.
