SCHOOL PATRON.

The JOURNAL believes there has
been less politics, A. II. A., and per-
sonal favOritism in our schools the
past year than for some time. While
these matters cannst be entirely
eliminated while people are human
and selfish, we are certain that in the
employment Of janitors and teachers
politics and religion have not been al
lowed to have as much play the past
year as some time before. While the
board has been Republican, the clerk
has been Gold Democrat, az least
two janitOrs are silver men and
there are teachers employed who
are neither Republicans nor Protest
ants. So the management of ,our
schools has made progress,
We believe there are more teachers
OF high professional standing en-
ployed than ever before. There is
scarcely a teacher employed who does
not teach IA great deal mLre than the
course OF study requires,and who does
not do great deal Of work with the
pupils besides what is required by the
terms OF the contract with the board.
Now while this is all said in Just
Ice To the present school management
THE JOURNAL believes the people
ououlu dln ulsueI, SHOULD snow
broader public spirit and take a
deeper interest in their schools. Under
the present financial system we are
paying the highest tax OF any large
town In the state. We need To elect
two men on the shOol board who will
back up the present good work OF the
board In employing only professional
teachers and giving such teachers pay
that they can devote their lives TO
and have some assurance of
permanence in their work.
We should elect two men who will |
help finance the district without Civ
Ina twice as much interest as other |
states pay for school money. Men |
who are above working the schools |
Tor a personal or political graft should
be chosen. /
The people do not care what marty |
.hey vote with, SO that they are |
'riends of the schools, friends of ed
