WE COPY with our hearty approval the fol-
lowing paragraph from one of the local letters
published in THE UNION last week: Con
sidering the duties of our School Commission
ers, the large territory they travel and the
many schools they are to visit and keep in
condition also the time required for cores
pondence, is it not time that steps should be
taken to have them better compensated? The
small salary of 500 does not meet their needs
in travelling expenses and the wear and tear
of teams besides the great loss in the absences
from their business, it often taking day to
return from one visit. 1t is a wonder that
men of the standing we now have will serve.
The Commissioners should ask for an increased
compensation, if not for themselves for their
successors. Five hundred dollars would not
be too much, but $500 surely should be paid for
the sacrifice they make and the responsibility
of the appointment of teachers and of hand
ling SO much money. The Supervisors of
Elections get $500 per year and yet their work
does not compare with that of the School Com
missioners." 1t does seem very strange that
so large and wealthy county as this should
paw the members of its School Board the paltry
sum of 500 year. Surely something should
be done when the Legislature meets next year
to remedy this.

Pennsylvania R. R. Maintains Schedule.
Neao York Tribune, august 13. 1905. ~


During the month of July the Pennsylvania
Special arrived in Chicago exactly on the minute
sylvania Special arrived in New York on sche-
dule time twenty three days. The average de-
tention on seven days was less than ten minutes,
crew could not be held responsible. The great
est breach in the schedule was on July IA, when
which blocked all four tracks on the Middle Di-
vision, entailing loss of two hours and twenGy-
two minutes in the regular arriving time at New
York. 1t is difficult to find match for this rec
ord. 1t demonstrates that the schedule has
sufficient elasticity to take up any ordinary de
tentions which may occur between termini, and
that even faster regular schedule may be made
should it be deemed wise. The fine condition of
the roadbed, the efficient motive power and
skillful operation all contribute to the ease with
which the Special accomplshes its work.

THE REPUBLICAN conventions now being
held throughout Maryland without single
exception thus far-are taking strong ground
against the Poe amendment. The convention
Of Washington county adopted the following !:
s'Its object is not to provide against the danger
of negro supremacy-a danger that is not real
and cannot exist in the State of Maryland. with
its ever-increasing white population and its
decreasing black population. The real design
and object Of this amendment is to SO narrow
the right to vote that it shall be confined to the
men who are in control of the Democratic
organization and those who yield to them
blind and unhesita:ing obedience. We con-
denim and denounce this amendment as the
most dangerous attack ever made upon the
fundamental rights of the citizens of Mary
land to participate in the affairs of govern
ment, ard we ask all voters Of Washington
county, of whatever political creed, to join
with us in giving an overwhelming vote against
its adoption"
