a crime Against the Children.

EDITOR HERALD
Will you permit me space in your paper
to call the attention Of the fathers and moth
ers of Somerset 10 a grave wrong that has
been committed against their children by
the school directors of our borough.
1t is the duty of school directors 10 select
the best available material for teachers and
when they fall short of this they commit a
moral crime against the children placed
under their care. One Of the most expe.
rienced and conceded best and best qualified
teachers in Somerset county was an appli-
cant for the assistant principalship OF the
Somerset borough public schools Two
members or the board OF directors favored
his selection and volunteered to contribute
from their own purses in order to make mp
the salary demanded. 1t is needless TO add
that he failed Of election. Good and expe
rienced teachers are not wanted for the ad-
vanced grades. How long will the suffering
people of this community put mp with this
sort Of thing On the part OF iheir public ser
wants? 1t is the interests Of their children
that are being neglected and against whom
the crime has been committed. for one
would like to know what good reason the
school directors can give for their action ?
Is it that the assistant principal should not
be be better qualified than the principal?

What has become OF the sanitary ordi-
nance passed by town council few months
ago making it compulsory on the part Of
citizens to clean up about their premises?
II was boldly asserted at the time the ordi-
nance was adopted that in case its provisions
were not complied with promptly measures
would be taken for its enforcement. In
fact council even went SO far as TO have all
this rot, iit can only be regarded as rot in its
present aspect printed on flaming hand bills,
which were freely Distributed and posted
conspicuously in all parts OF the town. At
the time of the passage ofthe ordinance the
HERALD called the attention of the =" bor-
ough dads" to the filthy condition of the
borough properly and suggested cleanliness
should begin at home. Well, the ordinance
has remained dead letter and the borough
property continues 70 be the filthiest about
the toxn. II it we're not for the meas
ures taken by property owners aijoining the
borough lookup to keep the surroundings
clean It voald be declared pablo nuisance

one Of the worla,s Wonders.

Among the mills Of Minneapolis, as wei
as OF the world, the '.Piilsbury A. stands at
the head. It's capacity is 200 barrels Of flour
per day, which quantity has been actually
made in the time The mill has five railroad
tracks running 70 II. Il handles all its cars
By machinery, the daily demand being 30
10 bring the wheat to and carry the puodDcts
from the mill. One can hardly Comprehend
$500 bushels of wheat being ground into
-four under one roof in one day, and the
product being all removed. But this IS the
daily business, and il moves with the ut
most accuracy and apparent ease. That
this mill is wonder Of the world is
shown by the fact.that register is KEEP IS
in hotel, and the daily registration is from
one to two pages Of names Of visitors from
all paris Of the world.

Town council held q protracted session
Saturday evening entirely devoted to argu-
ment on the part of Councilman Werner in
favor Of advertising for bids for the con-
struction of a gravity system Of water works
on plans furnished by sn engineer from Ty-
rome. Mr.. Werner was unable to satisfy the
other members Of council that the plan he
advocated was feasible and for that reason
he was unable to get his resolution to adyer-
tise voted on by them. 1t is claimed by par
ties, in position to know, that Kimberly
run has not the volume Of water TO supply
the demands of the town, and that the
point selected by the engineer for a reservoir
is not su:t ciently elevated TO furnish fire pro-
lection. 1t seems TO us that the time has
come when members Of council should rec
ognize the folly Of attempting TO overcome
impossibilities. and that it is their duty to
expend the borough finances in making per
manent improvements TO the town, rather
than to be paying for unsatisfactory plans
Tor water works.
