School Salaries.

To the Editor of the Press:
The question of adequate salaries for
our teachers in the Primary schools is
a matter of prime Importance IS affect
ing their permannt efficiency and pros
perity. The laborer is worthy OF his
hire, and the rate of wages indicates
pretty clearly the kind of efficiency that
is expected. Underpaid professional work
is pretty sure to end in poor work, The
public probably expects, and ii it m
derstood the condition of things, would
demand, that the best teaching talent
obtainable should be eployed in the
urinary schools. These schools are the
starting point where mistakes leave
their permanent impressions on the pupil
and are hard to eradicate. The pupils
in these schools require more individual
attention and treatment Oh the part of
teachers than pupils further advan ced.
Our scale of wages, on the contrary,
shows that we expect less of this grade
of teachers. We pay them less, and
this fact clearly shows that our standard
recognizes lower grade of efficiency and
teaching talent than in those of other
grades. This is a mistake, and should
Re corrected. $500 Il year is hardly a
living salary in these times, and GER
tainly leaves little leeway for setting
aside savingsssfor the future. Take the
following illustration of the expenses
of one of our teachers in the primary
school-and this is no more than an
average case:

STATE TOPICS OF INTEREST.

The Belfast assessors have begun their
reg ular session. The valuation last year
was largely increased reducing the rate
of taxation to SIG on $1,000. There were
however, "a batements made last year to
the extent OF 100000. The valuation
cannot be kept up to last years rgure
and as more money will have to be
raised, the rate of taxation will have to
be materially INCREASED. rf
Mr. A. X. Hilton, of North Arson,
was out looking after his horse business
last week, and while makinga trip from
Portland QUITO Scarboro he had a mis-
understanding with the conductor of the
train. Now the railroad is negotiating
a settlement, and probably that conduc-
tor has concluded that Andrew isn't
such countryman as might be.
East Dixfield is to have cheese factory
6Ox3O feet, two stories high. Nearly
5000 has been subscribed, company has
been organized, and a lot purchased.
Warren is talking electric railroad now
and telephone connection with other
places.
State Pension Clerk Milliken is a very
busy State official just at present. The
call for State pensions is much greater
than in past years. Up to the present
time for this year he has received S99 APP
plications. At, this time last year
