WORK BY CONTRACT.

A motion was made just at the clost Of the
annual meeting, which was but little under.
stood and carried with feeble support that all
expenses over $50 for any one item, should be
considered by contract. This we have en-.
deavored to do, but in two or three instances
this has been impracticable and we have acted
on our judgment after carefully considering
the kind OF labor TO be performed. One was
the removal of the vaults and rebuilding Of
closets in the East Salem school building, and
the other the putting in Of tiling in basement
and around Lincoln school building. In the
first instance, much Of the work was difficult
and loathsome and no plan could be adopted,
and besides this. the closets could only be had
at hxed charges, and these formed a large
share OF the expense. In the last instance, the
water came in during the storms Of November
unexpected to us, and immediate action was
required in order that the furnaces could be
put up and the building completed. In both,
substantial Improvements were made at a rea-
sonable rate nor was the work lofI to the de-
sires or judgment of those employed.

A MATTER OF JUSTICE,

We desire, in connection with our report, to
say few words in regard to Mr.. f. b. South.
wick. the contractor for the new school build.
ings, During all the progress of the work, he
has been not only kind and obliging to your
directors, freely answering all inquiries, and
in many instances submitting to delay and in
convenience in order to grant our requests, but
he has at all times shown a desire 10 perform
his contract not only in letter but in spirit, in
some instances, on his own suggestion, and at
his own expense, adding to the value and ap.
pearanee of the buildings. The suggestions
he has made, we believe have not been aetua.
ted by self interest, but in our opinion with
only desire to serve the interests Of your di.
ree,oD and for the good OF the district. And
we desire further to add that this compliment.
taTy notice is given without any knowledge or
solicitation on his part, SO well pleased are we
with all the work he has done for The district.

AT the close Of the school year, we were met
with a request from the teachers foran increase
OF salaries. Other districts were paying more,
and unless the wages were increased, the re-
suit would be not only loss Of several teach.
ers we had, but some we had heen intending
to engage for the coming year. There was no
alternative but to take second and third grade
teachers, or to increase the salaries. Believ.
ing the district preferred good teachers, and to
increase rather than diminish the efficiency of
the schools, we allowed an increase, which
with the extra teachers employed, has added
to our unexpected expenses 100000.

After the elevations and plans Of the Park
and South Salem school had been selected, we
carefully examined them, with view, II pos
sible, TO bring them within the sum OF So. 600
each. Among other things, We omitted the
diagonal sheating Of the outside walls, beliey.
ing, after consultation with competent me.
ehanies, that this expense might be avoided
without material injury to the buildings, This
reduced their cost about SI,aoo. AiIer the
outside walls had been put up and The roofs
put ON, the contractor gave il as his opinion
that the center Of the buildings ought TO have
more support as the roofs were very heavy and
the halls prevented any support through the
immediate center OF the buildings. As moth.
ing extra was called for in the plans, We made
careful inquiry Of wholly disinleresled and
eompelen, persons, and finally ordered the in.
side partitions TO be diagonally shealed from
the floor Of the h,st story 10 the ceiling Of the
second story. This added saoo 10 the con
tract price Of each building. bat NC believe
the money judiciously expended, and the
buildings all the better ior this addition. One
oversigh, Of the architects Of both buildings
added $1,000 more.

Chicken supply of London.

a fowl seems such a little, alto
gether insignificant thing, that it is
difficult to realize the possibility of
great industry taken up solely with
it; and most people are greatly sur
prised, when they hear the extent of
the traffic in Sussex. Some idea of
it's magnitude may be obtaided from
the following figures: During 1890
about 1000 tons of chickens left this
neighborhood for London alone. A
thousand tons is a figure that con-
veys but little impression to ou1
minds. But let us remember that
each fowl only weighs about four
pounds, and then we will see that to
make up the thousand tons there
must have been considerably over
half million of chickens, the exact
figures being $50, ,O00.-Sussex Eng.)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-The Repub-

committee, composed of Senators Hoar,
Mcmillan, Chandler, Teller and Mitch

conduct all the business that would
come within the province of steering

been Overburdened with work during

Chandler and Mitchell. The former is
now in New York, and while in Wash
ington is devoting his best efforts to
the subject of immigration and quaran-
tine matters, so that what is done falls

committee is not assuming any dicta-

Italian Miners SIiraculously
Escape Death.
HAZLEToN, Pa. Dec. 29.-An eXplo-
sion occurred at Milnesville this morn
ing, by which eight men narrowly
escaped instant death. As it is three of
tbem, James Jameson, Abra KOlokoski
and Monroe FritZinger, are seriously
wounded, and the other five less Seri-
Ously hurt. The latter are Italians and
Hungarians and their names could not
be learned. The men were engaged IN
blasting rock on a coal stripping. A
charge of dualin had been inserted in
the hole and everything gotten in readi-
ness to fire it. Jameson, the contractor,
decided 10 load another car be-
fore doing so and ordered the
men to resume work. While they
were engaged it is supposed one of
the man struck the dynamite with his
pick. A terrific explosion instantly fol-
lowed. How the men escaped instant
death is mystery. The mine car, which
had been placed near the spot 10 be
loaded, was smashed into splinters.
Tons of rock and dirt were thrown high
into the air. The Workmen were struck
by the flying debris and hurled in all
directions. 1t was first thought that all
had been killed. Frtzinger is terribly
cut about the body and head. and he
cannot live. KolokOSky sustained a
fractured skull and his face is terribly
battered. Jamison is badly cut about
the head and shoulders. The other
men sustained cuts and bruises, but

wherever located. Another plan, termed
system federation, would leave the mat
ter III the hands of the members em-
ployed on any railway system to decide
whether or not it should be adopted by
them, and if adopted would be binding
only on the members employed on such
systems as adopted it. A committee
consisting of one representative
from each organization here represented

NIT it TO the convention. If approved
by that body it will be referred to the
representatives Of each organization
separately. After each has decided for

TARIFF LITERATURE.
Large Amounts of 1t to Be Sent to

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-Lawrence
Gardner. secretary of the Democratic
clubs, will send to st. Paul in few
days large amount of tariff literature.
He does so at the request of Secretary
Smalley, of the Minnesota Democratic
state committee, who, in letter to Mr.
Gardner, says that winter is the time to
show the Republican farmer the error
of his ways. and that Democratic liter
ature, properly distributed now, will be
read during the long winter evenings,
degeSted, and, when the time for voting
comes, remembered. II heartily agree
with Mr.. Smaley." Mr.. Gardner said
this evening. 1--WE have quite large
amount of literature left over from the
campaign, and it could not be put to q
better use than he suggests. l shall
send him large box of it. Min
neSota in my mind, is full of
fertile Democratic soil. which. if prop
erly titled, will bear glorious harvest.
| am delighted to know that the COM
mittee is alive to the opportunity and
intends to grasp 1T. Some people in
politics are apt to rest Oh their oars i'm
mediately after victory. That is not
wise. Then the public's interest in the
political destiny of the country, is at it's
height, and it should be caught before
its fall. The heat of partisan strife is
over. and the defeated are curious to
know why they were defeated. By
reading Democratic tariff literature
they will learn. Many Republicans
wouldn't read it before election. They
Will now, though, and the result will
greatly benefit the Democratic party. L

OF all the other states were equally alive
to the possibilities, but | suppose, as

Since the cold weather set in, the en-
