The Shelton school opened Monday,
and the former principal, Mrs Moore,
succeeded in establishing her claim to
the principalship,.a at least for the pre-
sent. w. H. Kneeland, one of the di-
rectors being absent, aud the failure
of the new board to provide Prof.
Hines, the new principal with a con-
tract, left him unable to assert any
claim to the position, and the matter
rests until Mr.. Kneeland's return. A
number of the pupils of the high grades
removed their books and were rot en-
rolled, which leaves the attendance
smaller than usual. With no especial
interest except for securing. the best
results from the funds provided by the
taxpayers for the public schools, we
believe that the difficulty shoaid be
settled promptly. It would appear
that the old board had rather overstep-
ped its authority IN employing teach
ers beyond its term of office, and in
making contract with any teacher
after an election had shownsa consider
ably opposition to the teacher. Unless
there is reasonable harmony and CO.
operation in the school work the pupils
will suffer. Prof. Hines has moved
his family to Shelton,- and the d.
rectors should make good whatever
promises they have made to him.
