WASHINGTON, March 25.-In reference
to a rumor that ex-Secretary William G.
Whitney will be appointed ambassador to
Great Britain, it is stated on:unquestion-
able authority that neither Whitney nor
any other man has been selected for the
position. In fact, it is asserted posi-
lively, on the same authority, that the
matter of appointing successor to Mr..
Lincoln has not been considered.

WASHINGTON, March pa rumor,
with many elements of probability, was
current in the corridors of the state de-
partment today that w. c. Whitney, of
New York, will succeed Robert T. Lin

only doubt III the matter is in regard TO
WhitHey's wishes. There is no question
that he will be appointed provided the
Office is acceptable to him.

There were many, however, who
were inclined TO the belief that Police

That Troublesome Surplus.

Editor Waterman: - The result of our
school system has been that as people gath
cred and capital accumulated at business
centers, taxation has been lighter at such
centers, and the amount of public money
drawn from the town treasury has steadily
increased, and very likely it is at such
points where the trouble comes in. Whether
they come by it honestly or not, 1t belongs
to the districts, and in no sense to the town
Section $50 of the Revised Statutes provides
for appraising district property and applying
it on the taxes of such districts. Section Of
the act of 1892 provides that the several
towns shall take charge of the school-houses
and property belonging thereto. Now, if
Section $40, referred to, has not been re-
pealed, why not apply it to other district
property? Let the selectmen give them re-
ceipt for such surplus, not included in Sec
ton of the act of 1892 aud apply it on the
taxes of such districts. That looks like the
best way out, much better than dividing it
among the taxpayers or waiting for the
assembling of the legislature J.N.P.

THE district school system has not
been wiped out one day too soon for
the good of the public schools of the
state. These controversies over the
disposition of the surplus" and school
property are only exposing the game of
grab that many districts have for years
been playing, particularly in the matter
of the use of the public money. The
spirit the district system has fostered
has time and again been exhibited in the
legislature when school matters were
the subject of discussion. The same
spirit is cropping out in the recent
action of districts under the new law.
In district in South Burlington, for ex-
ample, that owed some S14, we are
credibly informed that the stove, the
! wood, the water pail, the tin dipper, the
clock, the map on the wall were sold,
the school building Quilted, and what re-
NAMED of the proceeds after paying the
debt of Sl4 was distributed among the
taxpayers. A district in Bennington
county voted to give its surplus to a
cheese factory but the treasurer was too
wise to pass over the money. And yet
the voters of that district had as good a
right to give its surplus to a cheese
factory, as others have to divide it up
among the tax payers. This money is
raised for educational purposes, and ii
is not rightfully devoted to any other
purpose. The acts of some of the dis
tricts are gratifying as showing the rea
animus of the old system and develop
ing the abuses, amounting almost to
fraud, that were yearly practiced by the
districts Every development, like those
in the districts mentioned, only makes
more certain the continuance of the new
system just going into operation.
