Tyndall Tribune: The con,

Tyndall Tribune: The conven-
tions on Tuesday brought the us
ual number of politicians to town.
The new primary method of elect
ing delegates to the county con-
vention did not seem to change the
complexion of the delegates much,
if any.
Of course the complexion was
not materially changed. Why
should it be? Practically the same
class of voters elected these dele
gates that have elected delegates to
previous conventions. These vot-
ers had the privilege of electing
whoever they wished to represent
them, and they have always en-
joyed that same privilege. The
fact is that the new primary law
does not touch the source of polit-
ical manipulation. This is done
by a system of voting delegations
as unit, a system which still pre-
walls, and by the prearrangement
of states or com binations of candi-
dates. This last method has here
tofore been done at conventions.
1t will now be done before the pri-
maries. Candidates will be brought
out to suit the party manipulators,
the henchmen in each county, or
precinct, will be given instructions
to work for this list of candidates,
and if an independent candidate
chances to get his name on the
primary ballot he will find himself
up against combination just as
surely as though he were bucbing
against combination in conven-
ton. This process of forming
states is already in vogue, both
for state ticket and for tickets in
the various counties. Those un-
sophisticated mortals who think
that the primary has done away
with "boss rule" as they term it,
are laboring under q fond delus1on.

County School Notes.
Next teachers examination,
April 10th and 18th.
First eighth grade examination,
May 21st and 22nd.
"To escape criticisms, do noth-
ing, say nothing, be nothing"
The spring term at the Normal
opens Wednesday, April lst.
Mr.. Frank Tupper closed very
successful term of school in Breezy
Hill district just in time to begin
work on bis farm. Miss Mary
Murtha who has been teaching in
district No. 80 will teach two
months term in the same school.
Carl Einrem of Valley View
school has sterted his school life
by attending the first two years
without being either absent or tar-
dy. It is to be hoped that he will
keep up this splendid record for
fourteen years more. Esther, Net
tie and Ruth Johnson of the same
school have been neither absent
nor tardy this year. This is a
good record for the school-four
perfect attendances for the year.
Mr.. john Unruh closed very
successful seven months term Of
school in the Hornstra district. He
plans to attend school during the
summer months.
The board of education of
Springfield district, No. /, has de-
cided to submit to the school cleo
tors of the district the question of
voting bonds to build new school
building, on April 9Th. This is q
much needed improvement and
should receive unanimous favor
able vote.
Mr.. Ernest Harwood who taught
the largest rural school in the coun-
ty DAISY, No. 67) this year closed
his term on March Goth and on
March oath took charge of Roose-
welt school, No. 2S..
1t is time for the teacher to be
saying "Where shall [ teach next
year?'' It is time, also, for school
patrons and boards to be saying
"Whom shall we have to teach our
school next year?''
Some very fine specimens of Ian
guage, drawing, penmanship, and
geography work have been received
from the Tabor Vauk and Byrne
schools. 1t is to be regretted that
space will not permit the mention
of the individual specimens.
There is an impression in some
quarters that the superintendent
receives mileage for visiting the
schools. This impression is en-.
tirely wrong. There is no mileage
nor an extra fee whatever connect.

s'He shall visit the schools in his
county as often as possible, at least
once each school year, correcting
any deficiency that may exist ir
the government of the school, ir
the classification of the pupils, OF

such suggestions as he shall deem
proper and necessary for the vel

The school monument fund has
been raised about $500 already by
the efforts Of the schools and there
is more to come. The Pioneers

schools have every reason to b,
proud of the showing they hav,
made.

BASEBALL NEWS NOTES

son OF 1907 with the splendid average OF
$50. Mr.. Navin says that Cobb will re-
eeive no special privileges. He has offered
Cobb a substantial increase in salary, treat
ing him as literally as he has done Dono-
van and Crawford, the other stars of the
team, and that is as far as he intends to go.
Cobb has demanded a contract calling
for $1,000 a year for three years and an
additional clause in the contract guaran-
teeing that he be paid his salary In full
in case of injury. Cobb asserts that such
an additional clause is necessary for his
protection, as he is in the habit of taking
desperate chances when stealing bases.
Nayin thinks the clause in regard to in
juries is superfluous for the reason that
the club has always cheerfully taken care
of its injured players, and no change will
ever be made in that regard. Again Mr..
Navin thinks it unfair for a player to ask
the club for a three-years' contract at
such a big salary as 5000. Too many
things can happen to a star for a club to
take such Il chance.
Cobb and the club are now at a deadlock
and 1t remains to be seen which will give
In. When the compromise comes 1t will
likely be a shortening of the contract. The
club comedies that the wonderful hitter is
entitled to a substantial increase in salary.

Third Baseman Jud Casey, captain OF
Last years Brooklyn National League
team, has been sold to the Jersey City
Eastern League club. 1t is doubtful If
Jimmy will ever don the garb of n
Skeeter, as he has been trying for some
time to purchase his release from Brook
iyn, and only failed TO get 1t because he
would not offer an amount equal to the
sums bid by other teams. All too late,
just after negotiations had been closed
with Manager Joe Bean. Jud bid the same
sum as JERSEY City.
1t is not believed the Skeeters will re-
fuse to allow him to buy his freedom,
Casey being DESTROYS of becoming Hugh
Duffy's partner In Providence. Jud has
drawn a good salary since he became a
big Lacquer in 1898, and has been in the
minors only one year since, Brooklyn
farming him to Detroit in 1900. He was
with Washington in 1899 for a short time,
and since then played with the following
clubs: Brooklyn, Detroit, Chicago and
Brooklyn, his second Superba job being in
the nature of an encore.
Casey was a brilliant third baseman i'm
his time, but has taken on flesh in recent
years, and Manager Donovan decided he
was too slow for the position, for this
reason advocating the purchase of Shee-
han from P%ittsburg. Had Casey remained
on the S%uperbas this year he would have
been a substitute.
Harry Pulliam can resign the Office of

dent of the Cincinnati Club, when he heard
that Pulllam had announced his intention
to resign at the meeting Of the National
League on February q unless Hermann
supported him in his controversy with the
National Association in regard to the al
legged blacklisting of players.
"Pulliam will get my support when ne

SLETGKBELLS
JINGLE AT
SPEEDWAY
HOrSemen Out in Cutters
bat Course in Poor Shape
for Racing.

The merry jingle Of sleigh bells was
heard all afternoon yesterday on the Essex
County Speedway. II was the first Sum
day this winter that found the race course
wrapped in a mantle Of white, and. conse-
quently, n good crowd turned out Among
the ~weliSknown horsemen out In their cut
tiers were John Lehman, former secretary
of the Road Horse Association of New
Jersey; Mike Harris, the popular driver;
George a.. Oil, jr.; Edward A. Iusi,
Benjamin Meyer, Henry Jaeger Il. A..
kireh and a host of others.
Despite the heavy snowfall the course
was in poor condition ard racing was ont
of the question. All along the speedway
proper, excepting a stretch Of 800 yards
near the Springfield avenue approach,
there were bare patches where the wind
had swept the downy covering TO the sides
and there were no signs of work having
been done TO make the going suitable.
as a result the horsemen had - refrain
from having brushes with the Other fell
lows" but they dashed along merrily in
single file, and n good days sport was en-
joyed. If there is snow next Sunday tho
Road Horse Association will probably ar
range to have the course rolled, making
it more favorable fer racing purposes.

FOOTBALL AT YALE.
Material on Hand for Next Season.
Bigelow and Jones Coaches.

NEW HAVEN. Conn, Jan. H.-Robert
Boyd Burch, Yale's new football captain,
has made n belated start on plans for next
season. The Illness of Tad Jones and the
tie vote recorded at the first election made
the choice of the captain two months late.
Burch is giving his attention just now TO
the selection Of two permanent coaches and
the schedule.
The post OF head coach has been offered
to Captain Bigelow, OF last falls eleven.
The Glen Ridge Star is trying to get his
fathers permission to accept, but his pa
rents wish him to go into business as soon
us he is graduated from Yale, in June. 1t
is generally thought, however. that Biglow
will be made head coach and that the other
regular coach will be Tao Jones.
In general there viii be no change in the
Yale schedule. Villanova will be dropped
as a result of the exhibition of rough tac~
ties here last fall, but the usual dates will
be given to Harvard, Princeton, West
Point and Brown In the more important
games. Burch Is undecided where to play
next season. Just now he ~inclines toward
quarterback, the position which Tad Jones's
graduation makes most difficult to fill.
Two promising players who were not ELL
gible last fall Will be available next year in
Andrus, the Andover guard, who played
on last years freshman team, and Hobbs,
the former Dartmouth guard. Hobbs will
be moved out to tackle to take the place
vacated by Captain Biglow, If he can make
good. The members of the last freshman
eleven most likely TO make the team are
Captain Fitzpatrick, fullback; Hyde, tackle,
and Greenough, centre and guard.
