from $500 to $500 by feeding the passengers '.Old

Reduction of Teachers Salaries.

"SkUCtsOlI OF 16OCNcF6 CWtVGso0s ''
To the Editor of the Globe.
Will it be in order for reader of your
paper to offer through its medium protest
against the unwise, unfair and unjust action
of the Minneapolis board of education in
cutting down the salaries of our most ad-
vanced and experienced school teachers
Just at this time, when the city council have
been increasing the pay of our police force
and many of our city officers. Does the
board expect the teachers to live after the
style of the Chinese, and still be able to in
struot the rising generation in refinement
and polish?. If popularity is the object
sought they have certainly struck the wrong
track, for every person but one with whom
have conversed upon the subject (and l
have conversed with dozens) think the re-
duction an outrage. If teachers of languages
and the sciences are to be put on plane with
kitchen anu shop girls, those who are rails
ing daughters had better bear in mind that
education is of no account except for the
pleasure it's possession gives-a luxury-but
of no use in the gaining of livelihood.
am glad to see there is a hberal-mlnded
minority in the board, and there are other
members that I should expect better things
of, but of one or two nothing different
could be expected. A little loyalty to our
city and its widespread reputation as good
place for people to come to educate their
children, and sense of right and Justice to
those who labor for a living would right the
wrong threatened, and give satisfaction to
not only nine tenths of the laboring classes,
but ninety out of every hundred of the tax
payers of this city. Respectfully,
MINNEAPOIITAN,
