HENRY W. TAFT.
A statement was made recently by Charles Bulk
ley Hubbell president OF the Board OF Educa-
ton. regarding the treatment OF schools under
the present Tammany administration. After speak
ing OF the animus OF the attack on Henry W. Taft,
the Republican candidate for Justice Of the Su-
preme Court, Mr.. Hubbell declared that Croker
was trying 10 use the ten thousand school teachers
Of the city to act as solicitors for Augustus Van

liberatey denied the benefits OF the plan OF In
crease OF salary 10 the teachers OF New-York This
Increase the Board tried to effect. but he and the
Mayor have kept the salaries down. BY his APP
proval OF the Ahearn bill Mayor Van Wyck showed
he was averse to spending 81 0ooOOo more for
teachers. Governor Black did not approve this
bill because It did not meet the approval OF the
Board OF Education OF this city. Tho Board
wished 10 make the increase dependent mainly
ability instead OF length OF service
Mr.. Hubbell then told how the Boards schedule
OF increased salaries was made UP. and how the
Board OF Estimate cut down the asked for
from 81 100000 $3.50 900
Some OF US could not understand at the time
why this done but the Tammany trick IL
plain now. They foresaw that II they could make
