EDITOR Freeman To my mind one OF the most
surprising items Of news in recent issue of your
paper was that noting the fact that branch Of
the Irish Land League had sprung into existence
in Cambria county, away up here the Ale
ghenies. Now that surely is an auspcious event
for the "Cireen Isle Of the Ocean Tor II shows
that lines Of sympathy Tor the cause OF Freedom
stretch across the Atlantic and are fastened even
on the everlasting hills Of this grand cOntiLent!
And why should not Ireland have freedom as
well any other land on Gods planet2 Is it be-
her si daughters are less yirtuOus. less
intelligent. OF less brave than any other people
No surely for the school boy can read to you from
his geography of the virtue. bravery ana hospital
ity of the Irish race. Then why should Ireland be
crush down and her privileges withheld in this
age OF liberty and progress? Can reason human
ity Justice answer the momentOus question {?
No, but 6ull-necked oppression can toss its horns
and tell yoI. They must knock undeTi' They are
a weak natiOn-already n-pOwerless-stripped
OF means Of defense retaliation, and within easy
reach Of oppression. Therefore they must be op-
pressed, because m ight makes right according

To change the subject I must describe to you the
recent visit of the County Superintendent to
school That aryus-eyed ofhciaI came down the
fold day at noon while the teacher was absent,
and the terrified youngsters reminded one Of flock
of downy goslings with n hawk in their midst.
Just then the teacher arrived, and after scanning
the school for a moment remarked that the coming
Of the Supcrinfendent must have frightened some
who had been present during the forenoon. The
teacher also remarked that vigorous and efficient
pedagoguc is often 'snuficd OUT after the fashion
OF the method used BY Philadelphia policemen in
clipping the wings Of able-bodied rowdies-name-
ly by holding their arms and lifting their feet from
the ground The foundation on which some good
teachers stand is often removed IN this way-that
IS. by taking the scholars away from the school
and thereby leaving the teacher without any ioun-
dation to work There can be no excuse for such
course Of action no one visits the school 70 as
certain whether il be taught in Greek, Latin or
But TO return to the subject The Superintend-
ent took charge Of the school to what the classes
could do in the common branches. This was effect
ed by pencil and paper exercise, which brought
out most eheetually the literary status OF the pu-
pills Mr.. Berg then addressed the school in few
happy remarks, Among other things he urged
that successful teacher should not only be sup

INFORMATION WANTED.

EDITOR FREEMAN-Stnce our borough election,
the 18th inst. citizens have been freely dis
cussinc the law that governs election boards and
great diversity of opinion exists on the subject
would be glad to know what the latest revised
statutes say on this point. The names Of all the
borough officers 10 be voted for were contained on
one sheet. some Of which having Judge and two
Inspectors. thereby giving the voter the freedom
Of choice, were put in the ballot-boX without the
name o. one of the Inspectors being erased, and Of
course to that extent the ballot was Illegal. Now
the questions in controversy are, Should the en-
tire sheet containing the names of al the borough
officers, be destroyed? was it optional with the
election board TO either destroy all the ticket OF
only that portion OF il affected by the act Of the
negligent vOter2 Some eight OF ten OF these spu-
riOus ballots were thrown out entire thus reducing
to that extent the vote cast for all the candidates
on the ticket. and ] don't know but what the board
was justified in so doing. 1t is for such informa-
ttOn am seeking, and hence ask some one capa-
bic OF doing to enlighten on the SUBJECT. In
formation given to the people by the press this
point would save all idle discussion in the future.
