The constantly recurring trouble In the
management of the District schools suggests
that the evil is due to faulty organization rather
than to any one special cause of complaint.
And if the matter be Investigated, one radical
fault will probably be found to lie in the too
great power given to the trustee with reference
To the appointment of teachers i'm his division.
As the case stands. his power in this respect is
practically despotic. He holds in his hands
the fortunes of every teacher He can appoint
and discharge at will. Theoretically, of course,
n chec.s exists in the supervision of the fun
board. but practically this remedy OF appeal is
worthless to the teacher who for any reason has
incurred the hostility of the trustee. The
teachers feel themselves at the mercy of IRE
sporsible power and IL becomes vital matter
tn them therefore, who this master is; and they
feel whenever trouble comes that their only
protection is a change in autocrats.
What is wanted Is a system which will secure
deserving teachers in their places and will
operate to- weed out undeserving teachers with
out involving charges of tyranny and partial
ity or making victims Such machinery can be
set up without infringing the rightful and pro-
per authority of trustee. There should clearly
be such civil service regulations In the school
system of the District that teachers could feel
that the tenure of Office depended on THAR
record rather than the within of any one man.
And such code would protect the trustee as
well the teacher, for IL would shield him
from the most injurious charges and from the
attacks of those who see protection to them
selves short of his overthrow.
The correspondence in the Dolphin case makes
clear the governments attitude toward Mr..
Roach, and calls for a defense from him. Taking
the report of his naval experts as trustworthy,
Mr.. Whitney declares that he has on his hands,
as Secretary, "a bad bargain broken con-
tract" This is grim alternative. and which
ever is taken speaks badly for Mr.. Roach That
gentleman can say, however, as Mr.. Whitney
himself admits, that the ship constructed
under the plans and the supervision of the gov
ernment's representatives, and approved step
by step by these agents. They may have been
deceived, ii is true, and reported under mis-
apprehension of the facts and in that case the
government might have ground for suit against
the contractor.
AT this notifying iuncture there is certain
consolation in looking across the water and
witnessing the chagriE of our English cousins.
who certainly ought to know how To build iron
men-of-war by this time, at the failure of some
OF their newest ironclads. One of these mon

million dollars, proves 10 be perfectly unman-
ageable. Another is about rs bad, and a third
is to be used as a torpedo target, having failed
