energy and wisdom of said commission
ers, the voters cannot be too caresul in
their selection. There is too much at
stake in this movement to justify the
slightest Indifference toany matter con-
nected with the adjustment of the ma
chinery essential to the proper working
ofcommon school system, upon which
depends the progress of the people to-
wards that moral and intellectual cul-
ture which is the surest basis of gen
eral prosperity and happiness.

THE County Court on Monday last,
elected. as school Superintendent, Mr..
N. L. Whitefeld. We do not, deem
the salary sufficient for the labor and
responsibility incident to the position,
but have no doubt the court will re-
consider the subject, should it appear,
upon trial, that the work is being pros
ecuted with JUDGMENT and efficiency.
The fact that Mr.. Whitfield has ac-
cepted the situation, in good faith, sat
isles US that he intends to do his whole
duty, and being an experienced teach
er, well educated and a Conscientious
gentleman, we have faith that he knows
what ought to be done for the estab-
lishment of schools on a sound basis
and that he will spare neither thought
nor labor to make them success. We
are satisfied, too, that the court is not
wanting in zeal for the vital cause of
education and will appreciate and lib
orally reward the successful efforts of
the agent they have chosen to put the
system in good working order.
