Of Brnner and Mccall with interest. There

Bruner stand trial aud take the chances Of

the Southern Pacific was. directed against

SURE SWEETS APRIL
REPORT.

1t is gratifying TO know from Mr. Swett's
April report that the daily average attend
ance upon our public schools exceeds the
daily average attendance in 1885 by go
pupils. Comparison is made with. 1855 for
the reason that the intermediate years
showed a smaller attendance than In that
year. But it is not pleasant to learn that
this small increase in the number of.pupils
has'eaused the appointment of 164 teachers
in excess of thu numbers that was found
sufficient in 1855, nor that the cost per
pupil has increased from $50 08 10 that year
to S25 Sc in $780, to SIS 40 in 1891 and TO SIS
in 1872. A:public-schoOl pupil costs the city
So more in 1892 than one cost in 1885. SO
far as the public: kn5ws or can judge these
five dollars are wasted. AS the average at
tendance exceeds $4,000 it, follows that the
School. Department is wasting. s165,OO0 of
the peoples money each year. 1t is not
charged nor assumed .thatth present board
has made a. dishono Tahle use of the money
It;has simply yielded to a natural desire to
place applicants for teachers positions In
the department and has elected goodly
mum Der more than there:is any need Of OF
course, none of these teachers are idle.
Glasses are made to fit the number of teach
ers.':: From five to fifteen pupils are taken
from. full classes and 50 divided about
that Instead Of As pupils some have 40 and
others even: less. The number Of as is by
no means excessive in a classified school,
Teachers used. to consider themselves in
luck If they had no more than 60. The re-
suit 6fthis waste is that the School Depart
ment is asking: for more money each year
while the work does not increase. Why
should teachers salaries in 1892 call for
SS25i0oG, while in 1885 nearly as many pupils
were Taught ON "a salary list amounting to
$685. 4Qi q. From that date TO 1891 inclusive
the. salary list increased steadily. while the
number Of pupils absolutely decreased.
The fact that in the past seven years pupils
have otinereased in the public schools in
proportion to the reported. increass In popu-
.lation indicates that in the public estima-
ton S25 a year tuition does not produce
better: results. than $40 year did few
years ago. There is. no proposition to dis
miss teachers; already employed nor to re-
duce salaries. but Mr.. SWEET advises that
no new. elections be made until the classes
have filed up to the accepted standard

which are hereafter to be commissioned on
these seas instead of returning to England
for the purpose. A similar change is prob
able in the arrangements of the China sta
ton. To read the glowing accounts of the
utility OF the Canadian Pacific Railway In
thus furthering the interests of the British
empire, one is inclined to ask what the Eng
lish supposed the railroad was made for If ii
could not transport few hundred soldiers
to their destination. Can any notion have
prevailed that the railway was constructed
so badly as to be unsafe for general traffic?
1t might be imagined that the opening up of
that route was the most marvellous en-
gineering feat on the continent, instead of
being one OF the most commonplace.

COTTON TIES.

A free-trade contemporary declares that
the labor involved in making all the ties
required for the cotton crop of last year.
about 5000. coo bales, would cost at 50 day
only $4,000. At what point in the manu-
facture of cotton ties our free-trade con-
temporary classes the material as raw" we
do not know II certainly does not mean
that all the ties needed for last years cotton
crop would cost but $4,000 If cotton ties
were on the free list Neither does it inform
its readers what other element of cost than
labor there is in cotton ties. In fact, the
cost OF these ties. as In most other manu-
featured products, is pretty much all labor.
The labor begins when the iron mine is sur
veyed and is the principal factor in every
process of mining and manufacture. The
free-traders are in the habit of assuming
that at some point the material is classed as
raw" and that up to that point work mad
cost nothing.

SUBSIDIES ARE THE THING.

1t is well for the Southern Pacific Railroad

its arguments in favor of the railroad. It's
burthen is against San Francisco, which
has assisted its manager to millions of dol
