THE SILVER DEMOCRATS !
Little Business Transacted at the First
Days Session.
VIRGINIA LEADS IN DELEGATES !
The Conference Not Mass Convention and
only Those Who Had Received Invita-
tions Are Permitted to Take Part in
the Deliberations

WAsHINGTON Aug 15.-The first ses.
sion of the conference OF silver Democrats
at the Metropolitan hotel showed a larger
attendance of sympathizers than had been
counted upon. The leaders Of the move
ment were anxious to correct the impress
sion that it was intended the meeting
should be a mass convention. They ap-
peared to think this idea had been seat
tered broadcast by the gold men, with the
view of making it appear that the meet
Ing had been failure. There We're con-
Eequently numerous requests that the
newspapers should make it clear that it
never intended the gathering should be
more than conference among leaders Of
the silver sentiment in the Democratic
party.
The meeting was called TO order by Sem
ator Harris, who moved that Senator
Jones be called to the chair rs temporary
chairman, which motion carried unani-
mously. George NJ. Lecrone, of Illinois,
was chosen secretary.
The meeting began behind closed doors
with instructions to the doorkeepers to
admit only those who had been invited
much to the regret of many who had ex-
pected to participate. When the roll was
called representatives. answered from
TWENTY-FIVE states. Int names were riven
to the secretary from only nineteen. Vir-
ginia headed the list with 10 delegates.
while Illinois and Missouri reported IA
each. Other states represented were:
Alabama, 4; Ohio. /: Georgia, ,; Indiana,
/; Delaware. 1: MARYLAND. 3; Kentucky.
/: Mississippi. 1; North Dakota. 1: West
Virginia. 2: Arkansas. B: Colorado. 3;
South Carolina. 1; North Carolina, 81
Florida, 4; Tennessee. 1.
Senator Jones made "A brief spoech on
taking the chair, confning himself to
thanking the conference for the honor
and expressing the hope that the proceed
inrs would be harmonious and productive
of rood results.
Senator Daniel offered n resolution pro-
yiding for the aDpointment by tho chair
of a committee to prepare a program and
resolutions, which was carried. After tho
appointmcnt of this committee the CON
ference adjourned for two hours
At4o'clock the committees on program

Shenandoah Pa, August H. 1895
Mr.. Hanna moved that thoroughly quail
fed tce,her Of the present corps be selected
as a music teacher.
Mr.. Edwards wanted to know what was
meant by qualified" and the president
stated that it was left to the judgment of the
Directors
Superintendent Whitaker said what | mean
is an experienced teacher from our own corps,
qualified to teach this music. He said there
were four teachers in the corps whom he
would endorse for the position, they were
Misses Wasley, Cayanaugh, Denger and
Coogan, and they had taken courses of in
struction at Philadelphia college in the
system of music taught in the schools He
said two of the outside applicants for the
position have no certificate in the system.
The superintendent also read an extract from
the school law providing that no teacher shall
be employed to teach in any branch other
than those enumerated in her certificate.
Mr. Trezse said that, since the question of
| legality had been raised he would refuse to
vote for any of the applicants, until satisfied
as to the certificates.
Mr., Hooks then spoke; What standing
has graduate of our High school as far as
music is concerned? Our scholars are taught
| from the time they enter school until they
arrive at the High school and have been
/ learning music until they graduate with
/ honors.
The superintendent answered they do in
this way Pupils who have graduated from
/ the High school have also been educated
/ probably to larger extent, proportionately,
/ in other studies, yet they are not of that
qualification that you would put them to
/ teach in the High school
/ The discussion was finally terminated by
/ Mr.. Morgan moving to amend Mr., Hanna's
motion that the board dispense with the elec-
ton of all teachers until the goth inst, and
that all applicants for the position of teacher
Of music produce their certificates to the
committee ON teachers and salaries in the
meantime,
The motion was carried, and after passing
upon some bills the board adjourned

was expressed by Deputy State Superiuten-
dent Houck after visiting our schools during
the term before the last. The benefits of this
to the pupils individually and its influence on
the spirit, order, and discipline of the schools
cannot be appreciated or understood by any
one not actually engaged in our school work
or any one who has not made an intelligent
study of our schools. 1t is clearly our duty
to preserve this feature of our system and to
improve it if we can.
Under our school organization all the
vocal music teaching and the supervising of
the same is entrusted to the teacher and
supervisor of vocal music Hence the posi-
ton is a very important one and special
qualifications are required on the part of the
select should be wen qualified to do these
three things: First, to teach well and
thoroughly the Tonic-Sol-Fa system of music;
second, to instruct and guide the other
teachers in teaching the subject; and. third,
to supervise and examine the work of all the
schools in the study and govern the teacher,
in their work of teaching the subject
''No one possesses these qualifications who
has not mastered the system of music and
who has not had considerable experience in
the school room. This standard has been
fixed and adhered to by the wise and we'll
established custom of our school administers
tion since vocal music was added to our
course of study. You, gentlemen, can not
safely deyiate from this policy. To do so
would be to take a long stride backwards.
Therefore, | earnestly recommend that
you select from among our experienced
teachers who are properly qualified, the one
most likely to fill the position satisfactory.
This course will be the safest and most just
to the schools and the teachers.
Among those who have applied for the
position are three who are not in our corps of
teachers They are intelligent and deserving
young ladies but, since none of them possess
the legal qualifications for the position you
cannot consider their applications. To elect
any one of them would be to violate the law
with the single desire of seeing done in
this matter that which will rebound to the
best interests of our schools, l earnestly APP
peal to you to consider and act with the same
end in view and fully conscious of the fact
that when you do what is for the best inter.
ests Of the schools under your care you dc
your highest and truest duty as School
