A SOLUTION OF THE H4FRE DE
GRACE SCHOOL PROBLEM.

a delegation consisting of Mayor
r. K. Vanneman, John A. Russell,
Hollis Courtney, Jr., w. S. McCombs
and P. Leslie Hopper, of Havre de
Grace, appeared before the County
Commissioners on Monday and sub
mitted to them a proposition in regard
to the new school house in that city
Their proposition is for the county
to issue certificates for 100000, bearing
interest ut , per cent for term of
years, and the proceeds of these GER
titicates TO be used in erecting IL new
school building, the county to pay the
interest on them for six years. and
after that time one-half of the license
fund the city receives to go to-
ward paying off the debt and interest,
until the entire amount is liquidated
This is proposition which will bear
considerable thought and study. On
general principles it is always bad
policy to GO in debt, but circumstances
alter cases. The county now pays
$40 a year for renting the present
quarters. All that these gentlemen
asked was for the Board to pay, in
addition to this, $3.50 year for six
years, and then after this they (the
city would take care of the debt by
using onehalf of the license money
for this purpose. 1t will be seen that
in the transaction Hartford county
only expends s., 76O, and in return gets
a school house worth 100000
Another point: The present school
quarters must be vacated, and where
can any suitable rooms be found to
accommodate four hundred pupils?
The city must have a school, and we
think from the present outlook these
gentlemen have presented a solution
of the problem worthy of serious con-

The Maine Central Is to adopt the Grand
