Mr.. Nelson made n vigorous kick
against paying 'nOt exceeding $50
per month";" He thought the mini
mum shOnH ~ fixed at $50, which
was high enough, be thought, In
some cases.
Mr.. johnson said he would not
care TO have il 20 QUITO be pull
lishe1 TO the wOrid-that We did not !
pay our teachers as much as We do |
our janitors. He would rather ray |
4 little more Tran the teachers were |
worth than offer such beggarly |
pitiance. The whole scale clear
through was low, and he, person
ally, would rather raise their |
Mr.. Pike thought so would be q
good minimum.
Mr.. Nel-1f; arose again, insisting |
that $50 was good enough for the
iirs; year. Let their wages be raised
As they developed proficiency in
teaching. For trial teachers we
should pay trial wages. Just as
soon as they are worthy Of IL, then
Il, their wages be raised.
Mr.. Newman did not want any
We had had good
eachers in the past. Why should
We place in the word minimum"
Let $50 be the maximum, and let
he grading be done by the superin-
endent In his judgment.
Mr.. Nel-on- again Of Elected.
The mayor thought good teachers
such as we would care 10, entrust
'ur children to-could not be gol for
ess than so. Apprentices in his
tore got nearly thai mach.
Again Mr.. Nelson rise In his
yrath, and claimed s'ratr prices for

Sineteenlh Ward had agreed 10
irn over all the property TO the
chool blard, and had also rlade ar
ansements % purchase the property

iere hardly prepared, however, TO

fusion that in order not to interfere
nth the school purposes they would
I've immediate possession upon
ayment Of $1,000, which was need
