mayor and they enjoy the experience.
He is faithful to them and they are
going to be loyal to him. He has set
II great example. He has put to
shame men who have been elected
to make certain laws for the people
of this state, men who were fully and
unequivocally pledged upon unmis-
taxable platforms to do certain
things and who have not only re-
fused to do so themselves, but have
heaped %contumely upon those who
have faithfully endeavored to keep
their platform pledges.
Railway is not a large place nor
a very live one, in some respects, but
it manifestly has a large, live maj
for mayor. At all events he sizes up
to the situation in his own city, and
acts upon the principle that pledges
given during a campaign are not to
be disregarded after victory has been
won at the polls.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.

Newark Evening News:
Mayor Furber, of Railway, is one
of the few men in modern politics
who believe that political platform
pledges are made to be kept. He was
elected last November as a reformer,
and at once proceeded to act in con
formity with the planks which were
the chief features of the platform
adopted by the convention which
nominated him; planks upon which
he stood solidly with both feet while
he conducted a vigorous campaign,
and plankS which he made a part of
his official policy as soon as the reina
of local government were put in his
hands.
Such conduct %astounded some OF
the professional politicians. They
caused rumors TO be circulated that
Mayor Furher had been advised TO
resign and that he was about to re-
sign, and they sent him anonymous
and threatening letters TO Brighten
him into resigning. They carried
their dastardly schemes even furth-
or: they attempted TO influence the
concern in which Mayor Furber is
employed as general manager. 10

things moved him he still held to
the idea that when he pledged his
word to the people he was in duty
bound to keep it.
What's the result of the mayors
fealty TO his pledges and to the peo-
pie? The citizens are standing by
him. They are giving him their NOR
al support irrespective of party.
They find they have got a man for

A black east wind and the sky unkind and
the sun away,
But the lark above is singing of love in the
old wild way.
And We're you but here, o my only dear,

The dusty road and the frozen sod and the
black east wind?
There's scarce a blade for to hide loves
bed and the brown bride coy,
Whose eyes will follow by hill or hollow
her soaring JOY.
o dear and true, if | clasped but you, should
/ fear, heart warm,
The snow in the wind and the sky unkind
and the muttering storm?
The daffodil is out on the hill, and the
lambs, a score,

And would you return, then / should not
mourn in your o embrace,
The sun away and the skies OF gray and the
snow in my face.

1t is to be regretted that Senator

Prudential Insurance Company is
said TO have been closely allied with

THURSDAY, MARCH IS.
OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

The annual report of the superin-
tendent of schools, S. E. Shull,. as
blished in the NEWS yesterday, is
not only extremely interesting, but
of the utmost Importance to the peo-
pie of this city. 1t shows the work
being done along educational lines
and is a document of which the city
may feel proud. Mr.. Shull treats the
whole situation in detail and his
recommendations are the result of
mature thought and years Of expert
ence.
He handles the subject of teachers
in a ann that cannot help but con-
vince the public of the need of better
pay.
The school buildings are second to
none in the state. We have eight. all
thoroughly modern, with the possible
exception of one. These buildings
are well equipped and the city has
done everything possible TO keep the
entire system up TO date, How nee
essary, then, it is, as Mr.. Shull points
out, to have the best of teachers TO
preside over the classes in these ex-
cellent buildings. There is no deny
ing that Perth Amboy now has good
teachers, but the fact that they are
so good explains why twenty-one
teachers sent in their designations
last year and all but four of these Sc
cured positions elsewhere where the
salaries are higher. We have excel
lent teachers. but most Of them do
not stay long. The vacancies left by
these are filed. 10 4 large extent, by
the inexperienced graduates, who, i'll
turn, leave as soon as experience will
warrant them seeking a higher sal
airy. Mr.. Shull's report states that
of the thirty-one new teachers last
year, twenty-five were without pre-
vious teaching experience.
The point for Perth Amboy 10 con-
slider is whether it is. not just as nee
essary to be liberal with the teaching
forces as with the erection of the
buildings. Perth Amboy is justly
proud of her school structures, but
a handsome building will no, educate
the boys and girls. It may make the
greatest impression 10 those being
Shown about the city, but it is what
is going on inside these buildings that
tells. When Perth Amboy has a
corps of good teachers she should be
able to keep them. We have ideal
athool buildings, let us keep them

filled with the best instructors that
can be secured.
Mr.. Schull's work among the chill
dren of school age, but who do not
attend school, is creditable. He states
that some of these who have been
working in factories he has had dis
charged and has placed them in
school. 1t is a pity that we have not
sufficient room to carry this out still
further and strictly enforce the law
compelling all children under the age
limit 10 attend school.
The high school is doing an excel
lent work for those wishing a higher
education and it should be supple
mented by a manual training school
that hands, as we'll as brains, might
be given proper attention.
In the matter of attendance there
is reason for more congratulations.
This year the average reaches 94.9
per cent. When it is realized that the
state school money Is distributed in
proportion to the attendance, this
means much for Perth Amboy.
This city easily leads the county
in its educational system and it ranks
with the pest in the state. Perth
Amboy is looking to the future, and
by taking good care Of the public
schools is the only way to properly
keep abreast with all the progressive
movements of the times.

Free antitoxin has again been de-
feated on the false presentation that
the state would have to build a $780,
900 laboratory. This idea has been
refuted time and time again, but it
was a favorite argument with the
trust and some senators were only
too glad of the reason to obey their
masters. The senate has merely flung
defiance at the people, but this has
been done so often that the people
are really becoming accustomed to it.
The defeat of the free antitoxin bill
only adds another to the long list of
reasons why the senate, as it is o
