DEFINITELY DECIDED UPON
UNTIL THE RUssrAN-AMER1cAN
COMPANY TAKES ACTION.
WAGES TO BE PAID IN AMERG-
CAN MONEY.
Jonathan w. Rowland, one Of the
directors OF Morris, Tasker & Co..
delaware Iron Works), arrived in
New Castle yesterday from Philadel-
phia to make arrangements, 1t is said.
for the force of skilled wOrkmen to be
sent TO Europe TO operate the new iron
pipe works that will be erected by Nor
ris, Tasker g Co. for the Russian
American Company at Mariapole, 1900
miles south OF Moscow, Russia.
The plan for securing the men was a
neat one. The heads of departments
Of the Delaware Iron Works had sub
mitted to the office the names of good
skilled worlimen in their employ and
then each workman was interviewed
upon the subject of going Co Europe.
Everything was left entirely optional
with the men, and each was asked to
name his own figures. The wages asked
varied greatly
From the lists thus obtained about
twenty-five men were selected of the
various trades. The corrected list was
taken by Mr. Rowland TO Philadelphia,
whore he viii present the same to
brokers representing the Russian-
American Company. If the wages de-
manded are adiudged as too high, the
Russian American Company will make
other arrangements If satisfactory
the men will be notified TO get ready
for the journey.
The terms offered these worlkmcn
are most liberal and show that honest
toll has rich reward. Morris. Tasker
/ Co offer 10 keep the men on their pay
roll. consider them as their employees
and pay a portion or al of their money
| every week to their wives or families
| here Further, they have the option
either to continue in the employ Of tho
| Russan-American Company or of Nor
| ris, Tasker g Co.
Their wages are to be paid in Ameri.
| can money (worth much more than the
! Russian kopecs) and are to begin the
hour they set foot upon the STEAMSHIP
/ uDOn which they will voyage across
| and back The contract. It is said, calls
| for about six months of service-in.
| Guiding the voyage across the time re-
quircd to erect the plant and severa
weeks Of operating IT, or until new
men can be taught.
| In the same contract, and to go over
on the same vessel-the British steam
ship Henley 300 tons of scelp Cror
plates) have been purchased from The
Pottstown Iron Company. This con
signment will be sufficient to begin th'
manufacture Of iron pipe. Some stee
pipe will also be made at the start.
A steel plant Is about TO be started
| simultaneously, at Mariapole, with tn
new pipe works These Industries hav
no real connection with the new Min
| Novgarod plant. which, although TO b
! operated by the Russian-Americal
| Company, is to consist OF locomotiy
| works.

The Normal Schools.


The commissioners appointed to in
vestigate the normal schools Of Yer
mont claim to have found that -
"The state has no interest in any real
ty connected with the normal schools.
Then it appears that the use of the
realty upon and within which the nor.
nal schools are carried on has been
furnished to the state for thirty years
free Of cost to the state. Why is this a
cause Of complaint against the normal
schoolsp
"There is no uniform system OF
teaching or training in the normal
schools Of this state.n
In another part Of their report the
commissioners describe the normal
schools Of other states as exhibiting
great divergence Of method"
Perhaps such divergence of method
will be without excuse hereafter when
the commissioners have described the
uniform SYSTEM of teaching proper
for all normal schools.

Whatever the result of the Novcm.
Der election, it is too much to expect
that the Senate will be wrested from
the control of the silver men. Though
the present body is nominally Repub-
lican, there are enough silver Republi-
cans from the far West who unite with
the silver Democrats and Populists to
make majority. Heretofore there
have been a number Of gold Demo-
cratic senators like Hill, German and
Faulkner WHO have acted with the
sound-money Republicans, but after
working TO elect Bryan they can hardly
be expected to continue the combina-
ton, SO that the next Senate promises
to be more unsound than the present
one. The western mining camps and
sage bush commonwealth have d pre-
ponderate representation in the Senate.
However, with a sound-money House
and president it will be impossible to
adopt free coinage. The Senate could
Of course play the dog in the manager
and prevent any legislation, but in the
face of a clear popular verdict it would
hardly dare to repeat its action on the
last tariff measure.

Ex-Gov. Stewart, who argued clc-

] in favor Of more general reelection
OF representatives and senator's, must
have been somewhat chagrincd to note
that only eight Of the 245 members Of
the newly-elected House have ever
served before. However, the ex-gov-
ernor is right Our house is made up
on a very faulty plan. Instead Of ask
! ing, "Who is the best man for the
place." towns are prone to take some
Individual of mediocre ability because
he is n good fellow" or because it is
"his turn, 7 or for other minor consid-
erations. Acting on this plan, it is
impossible to secure the best available
body of legislators. We are pleased to
note, however, that better counsel has
prevailed in many towns this year and
as a result we have personnel in the
House from which much good may be
expected
