enough to discourage the orchardst.
To one of humorous turn of mind
the care which is taken of the city ur-
chins. and the exposure to which the
country children are subjected give
food for funny thoughts. Here in the
city, where the pupils reside near the
school houses, where there are side
walks all the way. and where the school
buildings are fitted up with every con-
venience, our fragile sons and daugh-'
tiers are too precious to be exposed to
a small October dOwnpOur. though most
of them are still hardy enough to go out
and play in the wet for hours at time.
In the country the conditions are re-
versed. There the boys and girls re-
side long distances from the school
houses-as a rule-and there are no
sidewalks and few comfortable school
rooms. But the country children do
not mind the wettng. While school is
in session it is the duty of the children
to be present every day. Such an indo-
lence- provoking contrivance as no
school bell is unknown to the country
resident The teachers are paid for be-
ing present and ready for duty so many
days in the week. and if the pupils wish
to gain an eudcation they must be on
hand. On the whole. it is impressed
upon us that the city teacher and the
city pupil are having too easy times.
Life is made up of storms and cold
snaps and seasons of stress. These are
the times when the manhood and wo-
manhood that are in teachers and pu-
pills show up to best advantage. Sure
~. city child is better off in school
during rain than it is playing about
the street. For years the Bangor Daily
News has published and been glad to
publish the lists of country children
who have not been absent from school
for single half day during the term.
Such conduct is worth recording and
printing. The individual pupils who
win such distinction may not be the
most proficient in the school,, but the
fact that they have not missed half
a day is surely an indication of grit and
determination.

 hard work(D performed by the reg istering officer in Bisbae, was the in- stigator of this small piece of busi. ness, and had the sanction of the City Republican Committee. Later the sc- ton of City Registering Officer Hicks was backed up by the Republican members of the City Council, who on yesterday were censured in open court by Judge Doan, for the part they took in the affair.
 The testimony of Hunt at Tomb stone was amusing. He knew all about the affairs of the registering of ficer. This was natural as he was allowed access to the records. and was a privileged character around the office of the registering officer from the day the registration opened until it closed. Hunt was there to tell how busy MT Hicks was in writing Gown the names of voters. It Is fact that the registering officer sometimes wrote as many as ten a day. Hunt swore that Hicks was so busy and his guar ters wers SO cramped that if citizens of Bisbee had been allowed to see the records that Mir. Hicks could not have performed his official duties. Poor overworked Mir Hicks. Still. it will be remembered that MT. Hicks was never so busy but what he had time tc show MT. Hunt his records.
 The Democrats are well satisfied with the decision. Their -contenticr has been sustained and the precedent has again been established that a pub lie officer is a public servant, ane that records in his possession art open to inspection by the public.
