Because a man is eminent in national
politics, does that imply that the public
is well-bred when it demands from the
newspapers an account of his daugh-
ter's gowns or. her love affairs? II
another man offers to the public his
best thoughts, hoping earnestly to help
some struggling soul in life, and his
work commands universal attention
and respect, why should his clothes, his
accenS Wis family, be dragged into pub
lie view to crafty a million curious
eyes?

+; A peculiar state of affairs exists in
Dorchester county, Maryland, in refer
ence to the public schools. One Of the
main sources of school revenue for
many years has been from local oyster
licenses. A recent change in the law
requires one-third of this revenue to
be paid into the state oyster fund,
thereby diminishing the school fund to
the tune of about $4,000 year. The
salaries of country teachers now range
from $3.50 to 1910 per year, the latter
being for the best qualified teachers in
charge of the largest and most ad-
yanced schools. The question of in
creased school revenues will be po-
tent factor in Maryland politics during
the coming year. ..

Mr.. lowry said the company felt that
there should be better accommodations
on the Selby avenue line, so far as the
Merriam Park residents were con-
n There was no use, however,
he said, of discussing a device. The
Viaduct plan was the best method Of
getting up the hill. The plans and fig
ures he would like to have submitted
to the engineer of the company. AS
10 the Broadway loop, he thought il
would be a detrir1ent to the city to
operate 1T. He advanced the idea that
the citizens of st. Paul and the COM
Pdny could get together and agree on
a settlement. He was certain the COM
pany would do the best possible for the
city. He would be away for some time,
put, IN the meantime, both Vice Presi-
dent Goodrich and Superintendent
Held would be at the call of the coun-
cll and citizens and would represent
him.
MI. Murray suggested tina Mr.. Low
ny had better make up his mind as 10
now much money he would be willing
ana able to put in the viaduct plan and
n nave the city ascertain how much
1t could afford to put in. By this plan
an agreement could easily be reached.

at a final conclusion.
Mr.. Wheelock was anxious to know
ABOUT what action the would
take in removing the cars from Lex
lngton avenue The president of the
park board explained that it was the
of the property owners to
MAKE a driveway of the avenue from
umm avenue to Como park, and this
could not be done without the ear
tracks were removed from the avenue.
Mr. Lowry said he was not familiar
enough with the situation to reply to
the question, but he thought it could
be adjusted to suit the views of the
citizens.
After the meeting adjourned Presi-
dent Bigelow stated hat the problem
OF the Selby avenue hill trouble was
as good as settled. There was no doubt
out that the street railway
would accept the viaduct plan. Mr..
BlgeloW said he had put the figures
at $4,000 to see what Mr. Lowry would
say. AS a matter Of fact, the work
OF making the cut, building retaining
walls where new ones were needed and
relaylng the tracks would, according
to the estimates, cost $35, 900. To this
Would have to be added the cost of
a bridge over Summit avenue and the
possible damages to the AUDITING prop
