he found that which he at first regarded

The Teachers, salary BAH.

The Teachers Salary BRIL-
The bill regulating the salaries of the
school teachers fas many good features.
Indeed it may be said that the intention
is sound in every particular. But there
are some antiquities of expression which
should be eliminated before the measure
becomes law. %s
Besides the Encouragement of the
salary list. the bill accomplishes several
other purposes. It makes. the Super
~intendent of Public instruction and his
assistants, if any, and the Clerk of the
Board of Education, permanent officers,
At present, the Superintendent is elected
a political appointee and has to walk the
plank every time the political complexion
of the Board changes. In both cases. the
new law is excellent. When we IA a
good Superintendent, he should be raised
above all dependence upon politicians for
his place. He should have fxity of
tenure, so long as he desires to keep his
place.
The bill also provides that no employe,
which term is defined to cover everyone
from the superintendent to the janitors,
can be removed except upon charges and
after a hearing.
AS the Measure stands at present, there
is practically no method of increasing any
teachers pay except by expiration of
time. This we take to be a mere am
biguity. 1t cannot be intended to pre-
vent the Board of Education from giving
additional compensation for higher class
work, regardless of length of service.
There are several increases of salary
provided for. notably in the case of prin-
cipals, and it would seem that women
principals are to be paid the same as men.
The High School and Training School
principals receive 9. small increase, and
the female assistants in the High School
also receive about 500 a year more thar
at present.
The paragraph referring to the COM
putation of principals, pay is not clear as
to its meaning. and it is hard to under
stand just what Section 4 can mean when
read in connection with Section 3.
IN order to fill up its depleted columns,

the Evening Journal has again AXE
to stealing from .tThe News" In yester-
days paper, it had two un%blushing cribs.
One was the story headed Cows and
Swill Milk purloined from The News
of Tuesday; the other was the Hoboken
Goo-Goo meeting, which they went as far
back as our edition of Monday to steal.
In Mondays Journal there was an
account of City Collector Smiths pre-
cautions against robbery. stolen whole
sale from THE News of Saturday.
Evidently, the Journal has changed
its policy. Last week it howled fake
when The News beat it. Now it peck
cts its pride and steals the matter. Prob
ably it will find its new policy pay at
least as well as the old.
But is it not pitiful to see how the
Journal has fallen away. Has Colonel
Phelps ceased to hold up a financial
umbrella over it.
