CITY SCHOOLS OPEN.
High School Department has Largest Attendance
in Its History.
LARGE ENROLMENT IN ALL ROOMS

Any sceptic who entertains
doubts about whether Sistersville Is
holding her own should have been
present at the opening of our city
schools this morning. The chill
dren swarmed In literally, In droves,
and If the first days enrolment
may be taken as a, safe index of
what Is to follow, the attendance
will be larger this year than ever
before.
Every teacher was present at
each building and under plans care.
fully devised by City Superinten
dent M. E. Hess everything went
off like clock work. No jumbling
or misits anywhere, everybody had
place and no trouble or confusion
In finding 1t. This speaks we'll for
the Board of Education wisely con-
tinuing In Office such a competen.
and efficient official as Prof. Hess
has proven himself to be during
the past three years.
The corps of teachers could
scarcely be improved upon.
Among them we find some special
lists whose equal no town or city
can boast of employing.
Among these may be mentioned
Miss Blanche Campbell, who last
year attended and was graduated
from the Oswego State Normal
School of New York, where she
completed teachers training
course, fitting her for advanced
work as an instructor to train
teachers. Previous to going to the
New York special school, she took
a course In Col. Parker's school In
Chicago. She has supervisory du-
ties In conjunction with Prof. Hess
over the primary grades of our
schools.
Mrs. Harriet Lyon, whose repu-
tation is we'll known, was employed
for several years In the Model
school department of the Edinboro
State Normal at Edinboro, Pa, she
being a graduate of that school.
Space will not permit mention of
other we'll qualified and successful
teachers. With few exceptions,

Normal schools, colleges, or other
institutions of higher leaning. and
hold State certificates. The liberal
salaries paid attract the best teach.
erS.
The High School Is deserving of
mention, too. For three years past,
the substantial course of study pro
vided and thorough teaching done
has encouraged pupils to make sac
rifices to remain in school and has
attracted students from other
States. 1t has steadily increased
In numbers, until this forenoon
more pupils were present than
there we're seats. and chairs were
brought into the High School
room for the temporary accommda
ton of the number present who
could not be seated. More young
men are enrolled among the num-
Der than In any previous year.
This is hopeful sign and speaks
In louder terms than words, that
at last our young men realize the
worth and advantages to be derived
from attending number one High
School. The teaching Is done by
Prof. Hess, Supt. of City Schools,
Mr.. Daniels principal Of High
Schools. and Miss Elliot, assistant
Last year several hundred dollars
worth of valuable apparatus was
purchased by the School Board.
This will greatly facilitate the work
In several branches.
In fact the opportunities offered
In our High School are equal to
many schools of higher learning of
more pretentious than we assume.
The rooms and halls OF the High
School building have been painted
and present a handsome appear
ance. The walls of each are taste
fully adorned by framed pictures
and paintings that make them as
coy and comfortable as many
homes. Indeed every pupil, parent
and patron should be willing to en-
courage and support the schools of
our city for they merit and deserve
1t. We are certainly glad to feel
we have schools of which we may
be Justly proud.

of their common enemy. l think il know
Judge Conner too, we'll, not to know ne is
no anti-railroad candidate. The hrst
district is solidly supporting Judge
Brown for the same reason that 1t ana
all the other districts are supporting
Judge Clark, because they know him and
have known him all his life, and have
implicit confidence in his judicial IN
tegrity and uprightness and admire his
unusual ability. He is not a railroad nor
an nti-railroad candidate. He sem
fenced the chief law agent of the most
powerful of them to punishment without
hesitation and at the same time set
aside a verdict against a railroad COM
pany, because it was excessive. Every
voter in North Carolina knows that both
Judge Con1or and Judge Brown have
made incUrruptible judges and that the
interest of all litigants is safe in the
hands of either. l know | speak Judge
Browns views when l say if he could be
nominated there is nobody in the world
whose nomination would please him and
his friends better than that of Judge
Connor Then no sentiment of this sort
can sensibly enter into any alliance, if
this district are Judge Clarks friends.
There can be no antagonism in their can
dldacleS. To Judge Clarks friends all
over the State, l have a right to say:
Inc people are our refuge and our
strength, and they make no combinations:
combination are but devices to defeat
their will; before that sovereign tribunal.
with combinations, Judge Clark may be
IN jeopardy; without them, he is abso-
iutely lnvincible. Then let's not make
them-from our standpoint they are
criminal and dangerous Those of us
VINO prefer Judge Conner, let's vote for
nm, we could select no better man.
those of us who prefer Judge Brown let's
support him. he will be an ornament to
the bench and great credit to the State
IN MS future as in his past career.
he has been on the bench continuously
1or seventeen years, a poorly remun-
Grated, hard working, faithful public ser
want. Judicial life is his strongest love.
ana MS Amplitude is shown in the way
ne has acquitted himself We nominated
MN IN 96 and we were proud of his
name on the ticket then The enemy de-
1eated him. Why not denounce their act
by restoring him?
