| The receipt of the newly. issued copies
of the State trcasurer's report aroused
quite lively discussion over some of the
figures exhibited. 1t seems that in the
payments on account of the school fund
u gross injustice is done to New Castle
county.
The payments made for the past veal
up to January LIST, 1894, to this fund BY
the different counties are: New Castle
county, Ss2,0sS; Kent, s5,703, and Sus
sex, $4,795.
In the appropriation to each county
on account of school fund the figurel
are: New CASTLE, $4,000; Kent, 1874,
200, and Sussex, $780, In othe
words this county furnishes almost al
the money that makes up this fund blu
receives as its share but about 40 pc
cent.
