Our School System.

In addition to what we said last week in
reply to the article signed" Discontented Tax
payer, I'VE desire to place before our readers
some other suggestions pertaining to our
school system, and its management.
1st. That the efficiency of the graded sys-
tenn has leen so fully attested that we do
not believed any one who understands its
operation will for moment contend that
under it results, not possible under any
other system are obtained. This is true.
alike to the individual scholar and to the
school as whole, while by it the cost of
educating the children of a given district,
say of Owosso, is largely. diminished, for
the reason that under properly graded sys-
tenn one teacher can instruct thoroughly
twice as many scholars as can be done in
school that is not graded. Teachers every
where, who have tested. the two systems,
will attest to the truth of this statement.
And the reason is perfectly apparent to the
most casual observer. 1t is no more trouble
to teach class of twenty scholars properly
graded than one of five, and if the teacher
does his or her duty, as most of our teachers
do, in a thorough manner, each one of the
twenty is better instructed than one alone of
the twenty could possibly be, for the reason
that an interchange of thought on the part
OF the members of class adds very largely
to the benefits derived from the best possi-
BILE instruction of the teacher.
2nd. That under our present system our
sclOols are constantly improving in efficiency.
During the seven years that we have resid-
ed i'm Owosso the change for the better in
all the departments of our schools has been
very marked. With almost every change
more efficient teachers have been placed in
charge and the graduates have consequent
ly been more thoroughly fitted for the life
work before them. And it is not too much
to say that during the past three years, un-
der Prof. Swain our school has been second
to none in the state for the efficiency and
thoroughness of the work done, and it is to
be hoped and it is expected that under the
management of the incoming superintend-
ent, aided by the experience of the past,
that still higher standard may be obtained.
Bird. The browning glory of our educa-
tional system is; that it is Internationally
free to any child in the dristict. Under its
operations there is no favored class. The
five children of Disseminated Taxpayer"
stand on an exact equality with any five
children from any of the homes in the dis
trict, and the children of the man who pays
no tax are with the children of the million
aire entitled to precisely the same education
al advantages, and stand with them exact
peers-each being left to work out his stand
ing by individual effort, enjoying precisely
the same public facilities. If such a sys-
tenn is not in the interest of the wage-earn-
ing classes, we fail to conceive what system
could be devised that would be.
The times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1882-1897, 1889-07-05

Our great and only Wellington r Burt,
late democratic nominee for governor of
Michigan, on so-called anti-monopoly
ticket, is now engaged in attempting to or
ganize branch of the great English salt
trust, in New York with 50, 900, 600 capital.
This means, if it is successful, doubling the
cost of every Dbl. of salt the farmer has TO
purchase-a ROBBERY before which even the
Payne Standard Oil frauds, sink into moth
ingness. ''Oh, how do love the dear peo-
ple," was Burt's exclamation before a
Shiawassee audience in the late gubenato-
rial contest in this state. Oh. yes, yelling
ton, you have for them the same love the
wolf has for the lamb, and the condor of
the Andes for the babes in the valley.
The times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1882-1897, 1889-07-05

One of the provisions of the sweet-scented
Bayard election law in Delaware requires
every voter to be assessed for and pay q
poll tax before he can vote. just now this
assessment is being made, and is one of the
strong republican districts, the so-called
democratic assessor has hanging im front of
his residence small poX flag to keep the
republican colored men from going there to
be assessed, and in that way they hope to
make the state democratic at the next cleo
ton. By-the-way we suggest that this rag
be made the Banner Flag for the next cam
paign of the democratic party.
The times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1882-1897, 1889-07-05

THE TIMES has believed, since the day of
the Inauguration that an extra session Of
Congress was an imperitive necessity, and
that ii should have been convened earlier
than this. Now we are advised that the
President has determined to call a session
early in October. Well that is good for the
members, as dog days in Washington are
not among the pleasantest, yet the work
necessary to be done by a republican con-
gress is decidedly important and pressing.

A BRAVE ENGINEER.
He Rescues Forty-nve Miners From q
Watery Grave.

Forty-hve men were at work in the Allegheny
mine, Is miles from Cumberland, Nd, belong
ing to the Consolidated coal company, yester-
day, when the wall between IL and the adjoin-
ing worked-out Boston or Etna mine gave way
from pressure Of water In the old mine. II
flowed steadily in strong stream over four feet
in depth, and there we're grave fears for the men
inside. Hours passed before any relief could
be obtained by the men inside, and outside the
deep concern of wives, children and loving
friends were depicted on every countenance.
Finally the water had subsidized to depth that
would allow entrance to the mine, and h. p.
Meem, the mining engineer Of the company,
started in alone in search Of the imprisoned
men, none Of the outsiders being willing to
venture. After wading through the water
against strong current up to his armpits and
over an irregular bed fifteen hundred feet he
came to group Of forty-three men who
told MIN OF man and boy being In q distant
room. No one would 60 to their relief. He
started on anew finding the two, placed the
boy on his shoulders and bidding the man to
follow, turned back and joined the group. The
men seemed terrified and without judgment
Ihey declined to 60 forward until after much
persuasion, and then only after Meem had
taken the lead with the child on his shoulders.
fortunately all escaped The water was an
accumulation OF years and is still flowing at
considerable depth. though with less force.
The loss to the coal company is said TO be
heavy; the full extent will not be ascertained
until the water has entirely subsidized. Mems
courage in entering the mine, his strong spirit
and the hope and encouragement he gave the
entombed miners when he met them may be
Justly considered their salvation. He is GER
sainiy the beneficiary to many loving heart in
homes that would be grief-stricken, where
widows tears and orphans cries would prevail
In place Of joyful and thankful hearts.

A CURIOUS COMPLICATION.
Count Won Schwartzwalder Now Free
to Marry His German Wife.

A dispatch from st. Louis says: Another
chapter in the romance of Count Won Schwartz
valdez, formerly Of Belleville, was ended
Thursday when his inoffensive wife obtained
divorce in the East St Louis city court on
the ground of desertion. The count was
plain Sutton until two years ago. He married
in 1874 and has two young children. Two
years ago he was notified by his grandmother,
the Countess Won Citing, that, If he would re-
turn to Germany and fulfill certain conditions,
he would succeed to his fathers title as count
and come into possession Of vast fortune. He
went abroad without being divorced and mar
ried the daughter of German army officer at
his grandmother's request. This woman ac-
companied him back to Belleville last May, and,
upon discovering that he had been married,
created a scene. In short time, however, he
was on the best Of terms with both women. He
induced his legal wife to consent to q divorce
for $4,000, which she did, and the little woman
and two babies returned to Belleville. After
the decree he kissed his former wife and his
