TIE public schools are growing steadi-
1y In popular estimation as a means Of
acquiring knowledge sufficient for
ordinary purposes. Many of the most
prominent business and professional
men Of to-day have had no higher train
ing so far as educational institutions
20. While this is true at the present
time, the future promises to show
still larger proportion. The introduc-
ton Of a graded course of study
throughout the country has had excel
lent effect. Young men and women
are induced to remain a year or two
longer in order to receive diploma,
often with great benefit to themselves
and their fellow-pupils. Better super
vision is needed to keep the township
schools up to the highest standard of
usefulness. Intelligent directors, who
appreciate the Importance Of doing
their utmost to bring their schools into
harmony with the best methods of
teaching, aid in the good work. Better
salaries that will retain successful
teachers, and prevent frequent changes
In management, are also an element.

HHRn's ANOTHER for Frank: "No part
Of the present political contest is Of
more Importance TO organized labor
than the struggle for sldermanic honors
IN the Sixth and Seventh wards, says
Che Butte City Sunday ByStander Of
two weeks ago. In the Sixth ward Frank
L. Reber, a loyal labor leader, is fight
ing q splendid battle. Reber is a worthy
man in every particular. For many
years he has been consistent advocate
OF the best interests of the working
people. He is himself a working man.
Mr.. Reber Is a man Of cultured mind
and can hold his own with the shrewd-
est speaker of the city in debate. He
possesses good executive ability and is
. responsible and upright citizen. En-
tiroIy beyond the influence of the wire
pullers or the ringsters, Frank Reber
would reflect credit upon himself and
the whole city IL elected to a seat at the
council board. His defeat at this time
would be taken to mean that the only
qualification required Of an alderman
In that ward is wealth. He is one Of
the ablest and brightest men upon either
ticker and thoroughly deserves cleo
ton"

SENATOR HINES, of Luzerne, has in
troduced in the Senate a bill which will
be regarded with no little favor by the
old soldiers says the Standard, because
Of its justice. During the war, when
drafts were impending, counties,
boroughs, cities and townships offered
local bounties to induce young men to
volunteer, credit themselves to such
-Ai~--~l--- ~. ..>.-.
from operations Of an indiscriminate
draft. In some instances the money
was not paid down to the volunteers,
but was promised to them or their
families. Some communities were mean
enough afterwards to refuse to pay the
promised bounties and have not paid
them TO this day. Senator Hines bill
authorizes such defrauded soldiers to
bring suit to recover the amount due
them, and provides that no law of limi-
tation shall be bar to such suit.

LIFT your hat reverently when you
meet the teacher of primary school,
says an exchange. She is the good
angle Of the Republic. She takes the
bantling fresh from the home seat full
Of pouts and passion--an ungovernable
little wretch whose own mother hon.
sstly admits she sends him to school to
get rid Of him. This lady, who knows
her business, takes whole car load OF
these anarchists, one of whom single
handed and alone is more than match
for his parents, and at once puts them
In the way of being useful and upright
citizens. At what expense of patience,
toll and soul-weariness. Hers is the
most responsible position in the whole
school system, and if the salary were
doubled she would not receive more
than she earns.

ADULTERATIONS IN FOOD

Many States have stringent laws against.
food adulteration. but they fail to check the
evil. 1t is on the increase, The last report
of the Dairy Commissioner of New Jersey:
shows that 49, 96 per cent, or nearly half, OF.
all the food preparations submitted to him
for examination were adulterated. Some,
times the adulterations were harmless and in,
these cases the purchaser would be only,
swindled, but in many instances rank poisons
were found in articles of every day con,
sumption. A large percentage of canned
vegetables, such as peas and string beans,.
were found to contain copperas, used togiye
green color, and number of baking pow.
ders had been ''doctored" with ammonia to
give an artificial leavening strength and to
permit of their carrying more waste matter
In these cases there is not only fraud but

WILL BUILD NO MORE LINEs.-The
Southern Pacific railroad company, it is
stated by the dispatches, has recently made
arrangements to formally absorb all the mar
row gauge roads which have been operating
in Oregon and Washington. In order to do
this the company was formed to look after
the interests of the Southern Pacific branch
es in the northwest, and articles of incor-
poration of the California & Oregon Rail.
road Company were filed recently in Salem
The filings of these articles gave rise to the
sensational rumors that the Southern Pa
cifc was about to indulge in extensive road
building in Oregon and the surrounding
country. But this report is now officially
denied, and the company has no intention of
building any more roads soon in Oregon or
Washington. This puts damper on our
extension prospects on the west side, for tie
present at least, and we will have to only
await the Southern Pacific company's own
pleasure for activity in the future.
