School Commissioners Organize.

AT the meeting of the County School
Commissioners, which included the two
new members, Messrs. A. w. Nicode-
mus, Jr., and John c. Leatherman, the
board organized by electing Rev. |. NJ
Motter, president; John T White, sec
rotary. treasurer, and county superin-
tendent, and S N. Young, assistant
superintendent Only routine business
was transacted at the opening session.
A large delegation of citizens, who
were at the head of movement which
was started few months ago, in the
interest of better public school facilities
for boys, went before the board, and
urged the recommendation to the County
Commissioners of bond issue for new
buildings.
The School Commissioners, after hear
ing the advocates for better school facil-
tiles, stated that they would in the near
future call meeting of the trustees of
the city schools, and would invite this
committee to meet them and exchange
views on the subject, and in the mean
time committee of the School Board
will visit Hagerstown, Martinsburg and
other nearby cities where recently new
buildings for school purposes have been
erected. The committee were very
much pleased with their reception and
hope that their plans will be accepted
in the near future.
By an act of the recent Legislature
the County Commissioners may issue
bonds for not more than $75,o for new
public school buildings, provided the
plan is recommended by the School
Commissioners. 1t is understood tnat
some favor building suitable for CO.
educational purposes, while others think
it better to erect new buildings on the
sites of the present schools. The taking
over of the old Frederick College and
its remodeling into modern public
high school will be suggested. 1t is
generally thought that the movement
will result in securing for the city better
school facilities.

Miss Casey's Report - or April.

Miss Casey, the visiting nurse for the
Frederick County Branch of the Mary
land Association for the Prevention and
Relief Of tuberculosis. reports for the
month ending April goth, 1910, that three
hundred calls have been made. OF these
2I3 have been to the sick in their homes.
Twenty new calls have been received,
and "a new patients added to the visiting
list, making total to date of "a patients
being cared for.
That the nurses work is growing
daily is evidenced by the many calls
made upon her, and by the increasing
number OF patients under her supervis-
ion. 1t will be an immense thing when
the people have been taught the need of
fresh air and of ventilation of rooms,
especially their sleeping rooms 1t will
be great thing when they realize that
they can to large extent, protect them
selves from disease, especially tubercu-
losis, by increasing their resistance to
disease.

put their declination upon other reasons,
it is well known that the Payne Aldrich
Tariff Bill, has made them so unpopular
with the people of their respective States
that they could not hope to be reelected.
1t looks very mnch at this time, as if Mr..
Taft, by his endorsement Of Aldrich and
Cannon and the Tariff Bill, has lost his
popularity with the people.
He is now in very deep water, and if
he is not submerged in the flood of pop
ular condemnation, his escape will be
one of the marvels of the age. If ever
man deserved the condemnation OF
the people, Mr.. Taft deserves it for his
course on the tariff.

JOSEPH w. FOLK. of Missouri, hit the
tariff nail on the head in his speech at the
Indiana Jefferson day banquet, when he
said: IF protection is good thing, there
cannot be too much of it. If it is a bad
thing, there can not be too little Of it. If
protection benefited all alike, no one
would want it. 1t is because it gives a
few a special benefit denied the many
that die few clamor for this graft and it is
fer this reason that many should not sub
init to it. The only purpose of high
protective tariff is TO stife competition
and TO that extent create monopoly. 1t
is better to protect the people from mon
opoly instead of protecting monopoly
from the people. - This terse paragraph
sums up the reasons for the Democratic
partys opposition to protective tariffs
more forcibly and clearly than any utter
ance on the subject we have seen in many
moons.
