charge the Republican party with
this dRstnrdly crime. Although the

CONSIDER THE FACTS.

The report OF the committee that
examined the papers Of the recent APP
Phcauts for teachers certificates
should be carefully studied by every
lover o! fair PLAY. While the commit
tee makes no mention Of unfair work
toward any applicant the papers Of
some Of the applicants show that
crooked work vas cLue by at least
one member Of the board. That this
was done IN favor Of at least two Of
the applicants appears plainly from
their papers IN arithmetic and geor-
raphy. The committee also found
evidence Of gross carelesaess IN
marking the papers In geography.
Answers that were entitled TO little
credit were marked too high and other
answers were not marked at all. The
papers IL geography show that the
applicants were rot al theG best,
This was doubtless due 10 the trouble
in the board on Tuesday afternoon,
when the applicants were informed
that they had al! failed and we're dis
missed. They we're called together
again AMI finished their work III
geography. Again the committee
found that another applicant had re-
ceived II credits too many in gram
mar. This may be ar error Of judg.
ment on the part OF a member OF the
board who marked the grammar pa
per and il may be that il was done
for the purpose Of assisting the Young
lady to pass in this particular branch.
We do not pretend to say which il
was or whether either L. the correct
explanation.
No evidence OF an intent TO deprive
any applicant Of a certificate by TN.
fair marking was found on the papers
examined. But it must be borne III
mid that none Of these applicants
could possibly make the required
number OF credits TO entitle them TO
a certificate and consequently there
was no necessity OF beng unfair in
the marking OF their papers. II such
work was to be done, it would be
done on the papers OF the applicants
who stood a possible show Of obtain.
a certificate and not on the papers OF
those who could not possibly Lake
the required number Of credits. The
papers OF the two applicants who
came nearest TO passing the examina.
ton have been sent TO the State
Board OF Education and that board
has raised N OF them iwenty.seven
credits and given her a temporary
certificate. These facts should all be
borne in mind when making up your
judgment in this matter.
While the markings made by the
board and the committee in many in
stances agree, ii must not be taken
that the committee took the markings
OF the board as correct. IT, every IN
stance this agreement i'll the marx
lngs Is the result OF raising
and lowering the marking male
by the board TO aEne with the best
judgment Of tie committee. The
whole matter is nov before the peo.
pie and they may make up their Uwn
judgments upon the facts presented.
The above is but the individual
opinion Of the writer. Messrs Brown
and Patterson are III no wise respon.
sible for 1t. II Is, however, a reason.
able deduction from the facts pre-
eented in the report Of the committee.
