His Conception of Office RIght-Andrew
Jackson Wrou2

PHILADELPHIA. PA. Wednesday-In
a lecture or .'Altruisul il. Government
tonight, Bishop Henry c. Potter. of New
York, said President Andrew jackson
struck {. note in connection with this
subject that was one OF the most mis-
chicvous in American historg-"To tho
victorS belong the spoils''
1.-THE lesson that We find so hard to
learn continued Eishop Potter. is that
office is not spoil. and that Jackson in
suited the American conception OF facts
to describe it as a spoil.
1T was left to a greater Democrat I
venture to say, TO redeem his party and
enunciate the truth. for when Grover
Cleveland said: Public Office is a public
trust, he stated a truth which 'underIies
the whole business.
This remark OF the lecturer was received
with great ar,lause.-New York Herald

\ Suggestion.

A number of people are prophesying
that the proposed issue of $4,000 water
bonds will not carry at the approaching
election.
But it is important, not to say vital,
that the bonds should carry. This will
be fully realized when some dweller, es-
pecallv on the hill, has to take his
bucket and 90 he will not know where
for water.
With this premise established, should
not Mayor-elect Lammert and his Coun-
ell get together at the earliest practicable
III Dment, work out, or adopt what ap-
pears to be the best plan and announce
to the people their programme hct"r'
the cicciOn'
Should they not do this at o"cr-b'torc
they are sworn into office:
In other words, should they not save
time by having their plan of action
ready for announcement the next
minute after they are organized:
Every reason, every consideration and
every inducement calls fol prompt action

AT the meeting of teachers Friday
evening of last week the subject con
sidered was "AttentiOn."
H. c. Hill opened the discussion with
il short talk setting forth the value OF
attention i'll the school-room and in after
life, and enumerating methods of secur'
ing and retaining the interest of class
The members of the association enter,
ed heartily into the discussion and many
interesting and utiltarian phases of the
subject We're brought ont.
The rest of the evening was taken NJ
with what is probably the most usefuI
of the different lines of work followed
by teachers-that of discussing the
everyday difficulties in the school l-room
the exceptions rather than the rule.
The attendance was small, but what
was lacking in numbers was made up by
more than usual interest taken in the
discussion
