AT the coming school election of Co.
Supt. and Boards of Educations of
the several districts, politics should
under no consideration enter the fight.
AS it is an element of human nature
to work for self interest it follows as
a rule that men who have large fami-
lies of children and are known to
patronize the Public Schools by send
ing their children regularly to school,
of economical but generous ideas, are
the best men to select for members of
Boards of Education and Trustees.

RAILROAD NOTES.

The beautiful mud has stopped the
merry Jingle of the sleigh bell, but
freight traffic and passenges travel
are first class many extra trains are
running to accommodate the hosts of
people enroute to Washington. The
Democrats are making good use OF
this Inauguration, which is right, as
they do not happen often, once in
twenty-four years, and may not occur
again in score of years.
The B. & o. has introduced several
elegant new sleeping coaches recently,
manufactured by the Pullman Car
Co. of Ills. The trucks are unusually
strong, having an extra side bearing
bar which prevents that uncomfOrta-
BILE rocking of the car when in rapid
motion.
/ regret to record some serious ac-
cidents, one ofwhich occurred Friday,
Feb. 9th, in front of the Hooper
Stone House, two young ladies, whom
/ learned were the daughters of DIR.
Stehley, and a colored girl were pass
ing by in sleigh when from some
cause, the horse bounded over the
stone wall, taking the sleigh and its
occupants along. One of the ladies,
it was feared, was dangerously hurt.
They were taken to an adjacent house
where they were properly cared for.
In the evening they returned to tneil
home. 1t certainly was a very mar
row escape; what caused the horse &C
plunge down over this wall, which Is
about six feet, is not known as there
was neither engine or cars near the
crossing at the time of the accident.
An accident occurred on the b. q "
on Saturday night, March lst,, az
Washington junction, which resulted
in the instant death Of Brakeman
named Ferguson. It appears thai

Nor RIGHTLY UNDERSTOOD
last weeks report of the legislative
proceedings, is an account of petitions
presented asking legislation to ex-
empt wages of laboring men from
attachment. These petitions were
presented by the Senators from the
district in which they were gotten up.
Those from this district by Mr.. Mel
vim and Mr.. Unger. They were desig-
mated by the name of the first man on
the list, and the number of signers
given in figures. Thus one list from
Berkeley was headed, "George w.
SDoiwick and 80 others.n Now Mr..
Dolwick had no more to do with it
than the 80 others had, but because
his name happened TO come first, it was
mentioned to designate the list in
brief. He had as good a right to sign
the petition as the 80 or 100 others
from this county, but because his
name happened TO come first on one
paper and be mentioned and not the
rest, it is wrong and unjust to try to
make it appear that he got up the
petition. He did no such thing,
and it shows want Of intelligence and
Judgment to SO accuse him. If we
are correctly informed, the B. & o. or
its agents got up the petitions. Many
who signed them did not rightly I'M
derstand their purport. THE HER
AID advocated the movement as we
understood it, that it was to prevent
the transfer of accounts to parties out
side Of the State, except in cases OF
actual sale, and the attachment OF
these parties in cases where the labor
| ing man could not appear nor procure
counsel to defend his interests. This
much we know, that an honest man
needs no law to make him pay his
debts, and that it is hard to get law
that will make q dishonest man pay
his. Whether the petition was in
tended to benefit the Company most
or the laboring man, we are not able
to say; and it makes no difference for
it never came up before the legisla-
ture. Petitions at best are a nuisance,
| for you can't please everybody, and
mo man should sign one unless he
thoroughly understands it and is sure
/ it is right. Every man has right Il
his own opinion, and he who qries-
tions that right is neither fair mol
honest himself.
