DELAWARE PUBLIC SCHOOL
TEACHERS WANT MORE PAY
STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION WILL MAKE
ACTIVE CAMPAIGN BEFORE LEGISLATURE
II Sufficient Appropriations are Granted the
Lowest Teachers of the Primary Grantes
Will Receive S35 per Month.

Every one of the 800 school teachers
in Delaware may wake up some morn
ing about two months hence and find
that their salaries have been materially
increased and that it lsno dream. The
State Board of Education has taken
steps to campaign before the Legisla-
ture for proportionate increase in ap-
preparations which will permit them to
stand upon the platform of more
money for all and nothing less than
S35 month for the lowest primary
grade"
In fact, more money and better
teachers is to be the slogan of their
campaign, and while Professor J. E.
Carroll's scheme which is nearest his
heart is that of consolidating the rural
schools into big and modern graded
schools where the little tots can be
hauled in protected omnibusses in all
weathers. yet the better teachers, bet
ter pay campaign is to be urged for all
its worth.
The schools of Delaware already re-
ceive annually from the general fund
of the State treasurer's office the sum
of $132, 900, beside the interest on GER
tain investments of the State, includ-
ing some "a per centum of the Farmers
Bank stock. The plan is to lave this
increased to $3.50, 900, and other allow
ances continued. Last years receipts
for the conduct of the schools, from
State appropriations, the collection of
taxes, sale of text books and all sources
were 3" follows:
Single districts-New Castle county,
$50, ,S53.S1; Kent, $27, 40. 40; Sussex,
$40, ,512.3S. Colored school, single dis
tricts-New Castle, S7,4S3.65; Kent,
$9,9O8.76; Sussex, SS,233 80. Making
a total of $12S, GLIB.
incorporated districts-New Castle,
$29, ,359.29; Kent, $34, ,557S2; Sussex,
$47, 5O9.81. Making a total of S111, ,42S. :
90.
The grand total is, therefore
$235, 040.31.
The city of Wilmington, which op-
crates under a separate system of in
corporation, was allowed slice of the
appropriation upon the per capita of
165 teachers, whereas more than hun
dred more are employed daily by that
city's Board of Education. Under the
increase proposed Wilmington can come
n either for more teachers or more
pay.

that is, she will be singing in that
same wonderful voice, with the
the same youthful divinity and

sparkling melody; a symphony of
celestial lyrics, an eden OF myriad

ROBT, E. LEE.
Ninety Seventh Anniversary Was
January 10, 1904.

January 10, 1904.
The following editorial by Mr.
Watterson appeared in the Louis
vile Courier Journal of Tuesday,
January 10, 1904.
The recent death of two distin-
guished Confederate officers will
make to day, which commentaries
the ninety seventh anniversary of
Lees birth, more than usually one
of interest in the South, where his
memory is cherished so dearly.
But it is not only in that section
of the country in which the quail
ties that have given him such ex-
allied station that his name and
character are held in such high
esteem, but everywhere through
out the whole country similar
recognition of his virtues will be
conceded to him. AS in the South,
when the feelings engendered by
the war were tempered by time,
and full merit was accorded to
Gen. Grant for his ability in war
and his magnitude toward his
great opponent, so in the North
there was manifested similar
spirit toward Lee, whose name
was enrolled in the Temple of
Fame which overlooks the Hudson;
and equal honor accorded him
among the greatest of American
people. When after Gen. Grant
had retired from the Presidency
he visited Louisville and was
received with every demonstration
of respect by the Confederate
he paid a tribute to the
memory of Lee which none who
heard him can forget and which
had an echo co extensive with the
Union, renewing the bond of fell
lowship between those estranged
by war which time had not weak
ened, but strengthened with a
growing intensity.
1t is not claiming too much to
say that as the military career of
Gen. Lee is studied by the calm
light of history and the official
records of the war, his military
fame has steadily grown, until by
general accord among those com
petent to Judge, at home and
abroad, whatever their predictions
touching the merits of the strug-
gle, he has been accorded a place
among the foremost Generals OF
the worlds history. That he
should SO long and ably have com
batted against such fearful odds,
and developed such efficiency both
IN the subordinate Generals and in
MS men, attested personal merit
which has been confirmed by the
ablest critics, and iustifies the
pride with which his memory is
cherished by his own people. But
