LEGISLATIVE TOPICS.


Distribution of School Appropriations.
Norristown Herald: A proposition in
the legislature to change the basis on
which the state appropriation is distri5-
uted to the various districts of the COM
monwealth, is intended to give to sparsely
settled districts an undue proportion of
the money set apart by the legislature for
the benefit of education. The money is
distributed now in proportion to the num-
Der of taXables, an utterly arbitrary meth
od because 1t has no possible connection
with the number of pupils which ought TO
be the rule in this case. The proposed law
changes the basis from the number OF
taxables to the number of schools, an
equally arbitrary and unfair plan. The
number of pupils to be educated is the only
fair basis of distribution. That should he
ascertained by a census of children of
school age In each district. The money
for educational purposes ought then to he
divided according to its results among the
districts of the state. While change IL
being made 1t should be made according
to the principles Of justice and common
sense, without reference to whether they
are sparsely or densely peOpled, since all
citizens are expected TO pay taxes on the
same basis.

The Counciimanic Elections

The defeat of Walter Z. Davis, Re-
man in the Sixteenth ward by Lorenz
Zeidler, a Democrat, was caused by the
failure of many Republicans to go to
the polls. To similar cause may be
asCribed the election in the First ward
of John j. Lotus, an Independent with
Democratic leanings.
Last fall First ward Republicans for
governor polled 622 votes against 222
Democratic votes, or a total of S44 votes
on Tuesday, the Republican candidate
for common council d. II. Reese, polled
only 373 votes out of a total of ISL, being
defeated by So plurality. 1t is safe to
assume that two-thirds of the 63 per-
sons who voted for governor last fell,
but who, on Tuesday, did not vote at
all, are Republicans, who, had they been
apprised of the Importance of support
ing their party ticket, would have voted
for Mr.. Reese, thus insuring his cleo
ton. Why did they not come out to
the polls?
In the Sixteenth ward, on Tuesday,
+ Mr.. Zeidler received a vote of 266 to 2l5
cast last autumn for Candidate Singer
ly. This would seem to indicate that il
Republicans voted for the Democratic
candidate. But on the other hand, Mr..
Davis received only 200 votes to 3S5 re-
ceived last fall by Candidate Hastings,
a falling off of 134 votes. Even sub
tro ha
of Republicans who supported Mr.. Zeid-
Ter, what became of the 13i Republicans
who apparently stayed at home? Why
were they not brought out? Two-thirds
of them could have defeated Mr.. Zeidler
and thus secured councils to the Re-
publican party on joint ballot.
The Eighth ward aldermanic contest
shows that it is possible, at a spring
aection, to bring out the entire vote
The total vote polled last fall in this
ward was 541: on Tuesday it was 56S
General Hastings received only 80
votes to 323 polled at an off election for
Candidate w. s. Millar; and Editor
Singerly only 231 to 245 polled Tuesday
by Candidate Fitzsimmons. Here is a
gain in the total poll of q out of 56S, or
AZ per cent, as against falling-off in
the First ward, of 63 out of 7S1, or a
trifie more than per cent. and in the
Sixteenth ward, of 134 votes out of 466,
or 2s.7 per cent.
1t is apparent, we think, from these
figures that Republicans should not rest
too easily on their oars, If they expect
TO keep proper pace with the Dem
ocratic procession. The .stay-at-home
Republican especially should read these
figures over and paste them in his hat.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1895-02-21
Condemnation Not Yet Deserved.

Norristown Herald As usual In every
legislature, many foolish and extravagant
measures have been introduced, but they
have not been passed. Even should any
of them run the gauntlet of the two
houses, Governor Hastings stands ready
to veto them. and there Is no doubt what
ever that the state treasury will find in
him n faithful protector. 1t will be time
enough to blame the legislature when It
shall have committed the bunder of ex-
travagance. The members of the major
ity are all aware that this Is no time for
recklessncss in appropriations, and that
the future of the Republican party, as
well as the public welfare, requires the ex-
ercise of the strictest prudence and the
which takes money out of the state treas
ury, and they will act accordingly.

Another silly Bill puncturcd.

Reading Times: A bill has been intro
duced in the Legislature by Representative
Luden, of this city, providing that 1000
pounds shall constitute q ton of coal, as
sold by retail dealers. The regular ton.
of coal or anything else, calls for 40
pounds. There would seem to be no Sc
rious objection to Mr. Luden's proposi-
tion. as 1t makes no substantial differ
ence how many pounds are counted to n
ton, only so that the purchaser Is not de-
ceived or mistaken as to how many pounds
he is buying and pay for. As the matter
stands now, as II rule he expects 2,2iO
pounds but probably often gets 1000 and
in some cases perhaps even less. But If
Mr.. Ludens bill should become n law,
what Is to prevent the dealer whose con-
science will permit from giving him, say,
!, 800 pounds?

From the report. on another page, of
the finance committee Of the recent

of $S,5i9.17 which has been placed at
