The Chinaman has been engaged in
peddling vegetables in the neighbor-

FIGURES ON ILLITERACY
w. Z. Curtis in Chicago Record


The ratio of illiteracy among the ma
tions OF America and Europe is the high
est in Roumania, where it is 50 per cent.
of the population. Portugal is next in
order, with 70 per cent Of her people il
literate. In Russia 70 per cent of the
population can neither read nor write,
and schools are prohibited among the
peasants. In Spain the percentage is
s.; in Greece, 45; Italy, SS; Hungary, Is;
Ireland, II; Austria, 1880; Belgium. 1880;
France $50; England, $50; The Neither
lands, $40; Scotland, 3.57; Germany, oil;
Switzerland 0.o5.
In the United Staes the percentage of
the white population that is illiterate is
TT; OF the white native population, GO;
of the white foreign population, 1871; of
the colored population, 56.S. The ignor-
ance of the colored people and recent i'm
migrants brings the total average Hitter
acy of the United States up to l32-a
little less than Belgium and Austria. If
the southern states were eliminated this
percentage would be very much lower,
because in all of them the percentage of
illiteracy is higher than the average In
the south Atlantic division it runs UP to
3O.9 while in the north Atlantic division
of states 1t is only G2. In the south
central division-that Is, the gulf
and southwestern states-the percent
age is 297, while in the north central
states 1t is 81 The illlteracy of the ma
tive white population in the south Allan
tic states is 146, while in the north At
lantic states it is only 2.3 In the south
central states it is 1873. and in the north
central states it is "a.

Now for Decent Streets.

Nothing is now lacking but the city
controllers counter-signature to en-
able the Barber Asphalt company to
proceed at orce, according TO contract
to repair the asphalt streets. Control
Ter Howell can have no just ground
for refusing to countersign, since his
Jurisdiction is clerical rather than judi
cial. lie is to certify simply to the
authenticity of the papers executed by
others, no part of the responsibility
for which rests officially on his
shoulders.
II Is proper therefore, to regard this
battle for street repairs as closed, and
closed in the only business-like and
sensible manner possible under the cir
cumstances. We have not contended
for the fullllment of this contract be-
cause of any undue love for the So
called Barber octopus" we need
hardly say that our position would
have been identical had any other re-
sponsi2le asphalt company stood In
the Barber corapany's shoes as the low
bidder. The Barber people deserved
this contract because they offered 10
do a necessary public work at lower
figure than any competing enterprise.
They must live up to the contract in
good faith, fulfilling every requirement
exactly as specified, else substantial
public opinion which came to their res
cue while they were under the recent
demagoGic attacks will in turn train
its batteries upon them and drive them
forever out Of this town.
The principle of the ten-year con-
tract is sound and will be vindicated
in practice. 1t means continuous re-
pairs--a pavement always usable-and
not a pavement one year good and the
next year full of yawning chasms. If
the contractor benefits, 50 does the
city; what one saves by promptness in
the economy of materials for repair,
the other gains by the preservation OF
the surface of it's streets-it is as broad
as it is long. Scranton must never
again let its streets run down into the
ugly things of shame and dlsrepute
which they are today and which they
would long continue to be if the men
of backbone in councils and elsewhere
had not fought the procrastinators, the
political spectators and the gallery
players to a standstill and whipped a
decision out of them.
