THE SCHOOL FIGHT.


As was prophesied some time ago, the
school trustee matter has developed a.
nally into . warm contest. and though
not as bitter IS the past wi fights, IL is
still being wsged earnestly on both sides.
and by Monday the pot will be boiling
right merrily.
In order 10 understand clearly che atti-
tuds OF the gentlemen who are in the race
for this most ~thankless Of all official po-
s%itions, Q SENTINEL representative has in
terviewed them as to the policy they might
pursue IL elected.
II. A. MoKim was first spoken to and
his answer ss TO his position OF the vexed
situation was 10 this effect: 81 believe
In the employment Of teachers Of expert
ence and ability, irrespective Of normal or
any other special technical training.
Home teachers should have the preference
when capable Of filling positions in our
public schools" The main plank in Mo.
Kim's platform Is clearly the desire 70 EN-.
ploy teachers whose homes are amongst
us, without regard to the character Of
their training for the work, 80 long as
they have shown themselves capable and
efficient.
Bob Reid defines himself as q straight
out believer in the particular fitness Of
teachers who have had the benefit Of Q
normal training. He thinks that this
more certainly establishes their ability as
educators, especially where some years Of
experience have been added 10 the special
training. He makes no point or the res
idence OF the teachers, but would employ
them from anywhere SO long as they fill
the requirements Is to thorough qualifcs-
ton.
Both gentlemen above named are eau
didates for tho short term. Hank Cronant
has no opposition for the long term, and
his platform Ia tersely short and dryly
frank. When asked what he wanted be
replied, II want 70 be elected" and we
guess he'll &c. what he wants.
/. ia TO be earnestly hoped that as be-
tween the opposing candidates for short
term and their several friends there will
be none OF the bitter and acrimonious
conduct so unfortunately common in
school elections heretofore. We are all
neighbors Of long association in this little
town, and there can be no doubt about the
desire Of all OF us TO maintain our schools
in the best possible manner. Although
opinions as to the means 10 that end may
differ, yet q fair respect for the good In
tention Of Opposing theorists should con-
duce to q more friendly test Of the will Of
tho majority, and q more harmonious feel
ing follow on its determination than has
been usual in old Eureka town.

that for twenty-five years bis wife has

4 Bad Arm.

An effort was made at the Queen 5
Hospital yesterday to secure an X-ray
negative Of the arm Of a child. There
was not success, for the reason that
the little one could not be kept quiet
for the exposure or printing. This IS
the child that will be present in the
District Court as evidence against the
Portuguese man charged with practic-
ing surgery without proper qualffica-
ton or license. It is alleged that the
defendant set the broken arm Of the
little one and rendered the member
practically useless. This man, it is
charged, claims to have a license from
the Queens Hospital. He was some
years ago an inmate of the institution
for a couple of weeks, having lost sew
eraI fingers off one of his hands by a
premature explosion on a rock work
job at Pearl City.

Few people have any idea of how
much money is spent by the
municipality of Paris in planting and
looking after the trees which line the
principal bouleYards and avenues of
the French capital. The annual re-
port of the superintendent gives the
total number of trees planted at 87,655,
each of which represents an initial cost
of S35. The annual expenditure for
maintenance is $52, 800.
