With the opening of the public schools
in the fall the School Board of Cecil will
take its first step toward consolidation in
this county. Shawnah School, about two
and a-half miles from North East, is to be
closed and the dozen and a-half or so
of pupils who would ordinarily have at
tended it, enrolled at the North East
High School. In order to insure the
attendance at the High School of pupils
in the neighborhood of the closed Shaw
nah school, the Board will arrange for
their transportation to and from North
East, and is having wagon constructed
for the purpose.
The question of school consolidation
has long been discussed and is being put
in practice in various rural districts, the
advantages of better schools, better edu-
cational methods aud more thorough
supervision to be obtained by the system
being apparent. as well as the saving, by
reason of having to maintain but one
well-equipped, centrally located, graded
school, in place of two or three whose
small attendance does not permit the
grading of the pupils, and consequently
makes an increased number of classes
which consume time that Is employed to
the better advantage of pupils where the
graded system prevails.
The Cecil Star is authority for the
statement that the taxpayers of this
county are paying anywhere from $50 to
$40 per pupil annually in number OF
small public schools, whereas if these
pupils were sent to a centrally located
school they could have better educational
advantages at cost of not more than
one-half the first named figure per pupil.
The move toward consolidation is one
of progress in the school system of our
county and is, we predict, but the begin
ming which will result in fewer of the
schools with small attendance, but whose
cost of maintaining is the same as the bet
ter attended schools, and the establish
ment of those where the larger number
of pupils will permit their grading and
the consequent more thorough and sys-
tematic instruction.

The campaign against the Pennsylvania
railroad for cheaper rates and mileage
book at fiat rate, which has been going
on ever since the company sprung its
holdnp scheme of demanding $50 for a
mileage book which was worth but $40
for travelling purposes, has finally had the
effect of causing that corporation to re-
cede little from its arbitrary position and
announce that /. 900 mile tickets will be
placed on sale after September I, at the
flat price of $40. These tickets will be
valid on all lines east of Pittsburg and
Erie, and will be accepted for travel upon
the company's lines, upon presentation
by anyone.
No change is to be made in the price
of the interchangeable mileage tickets
now sold by the company, which are not
transferable and upon which deposit of
$40 above the regular price is required.
The company has also decided to reduce
the maximum one-way fare from 81 and
8 cents to m cents a mile. This action
will involve readjustment of all through
fares from the South, and, owing to the
vast amount of work entailed by reason
of the change, the new rate of fare will
not become operative for some time,
probably not until November I.

The way number of Democrats prom.
iuent in political affairs of this State are
hustling to get into the Bryan band
wagon, on the occasion of the forthcom-
ing welcome to be rendered the Nebraskan
in New York on his arrival from abroad,
shows the direction the wind is blowing.
Not few of these gentleman were either
absolutely opposed to Bryan or decidedly
lukewarm toward him during his cam
paigns for the presidency, but now seeing
they are in danger of being left high and
dry when the political plums are passed
over the pie counter, they are bestirriug
themselves to get into line with popular
sentiment. The democratic party in
Maryland has a lot of self-constituted
leaders who are the rankesl sort of camp
followers, as is instanced by their actious
at the present time, who should be rele-
gated to the rear and kept there.

Political history is making fast in these
hot summer days and there is no sign of
a lull until the votes are counted in No
vember, 1908, for the Presidency, says
the Philadelphia Ledger's political re-
viewer, in his summary for the week.
Cummin s victory in Iowa is regarded as
an Administration defeat, although the
expression of the platform on tariff re-
vision is not what it was expected it
would be. The platform is all Governor
Cummius wanted, excepting that one
sentence was clipped off his tariff plank.
The New York fight assumed shape so
far as the Democrats are concerned.
Hearst will surely be an independent
candidate for Governor, and he may be
able to capture the Democratic nomina.
ton. Bryan has set himself up as die
tator OF the Democracy and has ordered
National Committeeman Roger Sullivan,
of Illinois, to resign his place on the
committee, declaring that he was elected
by fraud. This may cause Bryan to lose
many Illinois votes. The great contest
for the Endorsement by the people for
United States Senator from Illinois, be.
tween Senator Cullom and Ex-Governor
Yates, was notable feature of the week.
Bryan got the Endorsement of Michigan
and North Dakota in his pilgrimage to
the White House. The record would not
be complete without the announcement
that J. Edward Addicks is carrying on a
vigorous campaign for United States SEN
ator in Delaware, with about the same
prospect of success that he had seventeen
years ago.

The Anti-Bribery League of Delaware
is making strong effort to prevent the
using of money illegally on registration
days in that State to get voters qualified
for the election. The League is looming
up strong on the political horizon, and
being composed of energetic men who
are in earnest in their undertaking, bids
fair to cause trouble in the camps of vote
BUYERS and sellers in the Diamond State.
No doubt the illegal traffic will be piled
to considerable extent, as usual but the
activity of the League will make the bus
mess little more dangerous for those
who practice it than has been the case for
some years past in Delaware wher Ad-
dicksism was at its heighth. The League
has the support of the best people of the
State, regardless of party ties, and cannot
help but bear good fruit. Corruption and
bribery at elections, like stealing, can
probably never be entirely stopped. but
the violators can be made to suffer the
penalties of the law if determined steps
are taken for their prosecution.

Capt. w. II. Beehler, commandaut of the
naval station at Key West, Fla, urges
the ACCESSIBILITY of storing coal for the use
of the service in concrete tanks capable
of being filled with sea water. He calls
attention to the appropriation made by
Congress for new storage sheds at Key
West and asks that these be constructed
in accordance with his ideas.
After relating his experiences with fires
in coal piles at his station, which he at
tributes to the fact that the coal is in
heaps from rs to IS feet high, and that
the consequent pressure generates heat.
setting FIRE to the escaping gases, he gives
the following advantages of watertight
concrete coal shed
"The submerged storage of coal will
Theoretically seal the gases in that coal.
Small pockets of combustion cannot
be formed with the coal under water.
"The gases cannot be formed from the
coal under water.
''Fires in the coal stored under water
are impossible.
"The expense of fighting fires during
the last 10 month at Key West would
more than defray the cost of converting
that shed into a concrete water.tight
cistern, as proposed.
"Coal so stored will be delivered damp,
and there will be no loss of coal dust car.

In Southern Idaho the latter part of
this month Uncle Sam will act the part
of real.estate agent. He will offer for
sale the lots contained in two town sites
situated in the heart of the Minidoka
irrigation project.
This project provides for the reclama-
ton of about 1870, 900 acres lying on both
sides of Snake river The land was all
public domain, and when the engineers
designed the system they did not neglect
the opportunity for establishing an ideal
farming community. Three town sites
were laid out in the center of the tract
on the proposed line of the Oregon Short
Line railway. All the agricultural lands
we're cut into farms of 40 or SO acres, so
that the instant the tract is brought
under cultivation it is expected to become
densley populated agricultural COM
muuity.
Two years ago the Minidoka country
was an uninhabited sage-brush plain.
To irrigate this broad expanse of plain
the Snake river had to be lifted from its
bed, and dam was laid across the stream
at Minidoka rapids, great rock -fill struc.
ture so feet in height and $50 feet long on
top, which raised the water surface AZ
feet at flood level and backed it up for IS
miles. The dam is near completion, and
will cost nearly 5000 When the i'm
mense gates in the diversion channel are
lifted the water will pass into the high
line channel on both sides of the river
and be led from them through hundreds
of miles of laterals to every farm in the
valley.
The Secretary of the Interior has fixed
the date of town-lot sale, Hepburn, Aug.
20; Rupert, 81.
The lots in Sherrer, the third town site,
will be reserved for future sale.

245 pupils enorlled. This number,
however, will be greatly increased
