PRAISE FOR PROF SPAIn.


To the Editor of THE EVENING
JOURNAL
Sir: All true friends of education
and those who desire the highest
moral welfare of the community, sin
cerely hope that Governor Miller will
re-appoint, on February II, to the
Office Of superintendent Of public
schools of this county, the ideal edu-
Gator and Christian gentleman, Pro-
fessor A. r. Spaid.
For ten years Superintendent Spaid
has worked with almost super-human
effort in behalf of our county schools.
Those who have been engaged in the
same cause, know full well of his
noble, enthusiastic and unselffish
work
The many hundreds Of boys and
girls who have come under his infiu-
ence, will be nobler men and women,
with higher ideals of life and with a
deeper love for nature in all her va
ried forms.
All his has Mr.. Spaid done for us.
I What have we done for him and his?
Armies and animals and individuals
may hold out a long time in their
hiding places and fortifcations and
positions, but starvation sooner or
later brings the surrender.
VIII 1t surprise my readers to learn
that while the superintendent in the
neighboring counties Of Pennsylvania,
Maryland and New Jersey receive
from $4,000 to $4,000 a year, New Cas-
tie county has given such man as
Mr.. Spaid the beggarly salary OF
$1,000? II is true, Shakespeare said;
"Our praises are our wages" Graft
flying though, perhaps, our words OF
praise may be to Mr. and Mrs Spaid
words will not feed, clothe and edu-
cate their five children.
Cannot something be done to en-
able Mr.. Spaid 20 remain with us, by
insuring him a salary in some degree
more worthy of a man Of his ability
Shakespeare also said: "Ingratitude
is monstrous; and for the multitude
to be ungrateful we're to make a
monster of the multitude"
II would seem that the State Board
Of Education would be interested, very
deeply. in making every effort tc
have Professor Spaid remain in this
state. Justice.

EDITORIAL OPINION

enterprise, If true, puts the matter Of
good modern highway, of which
there is great need, up to the State
authorities. The Governor has put
himself on the righ side of that con-
troversy, in arguing for the compile
tion of the road.
The opponents Of the dupont enter
prise who have been boasting of the
States ability to build a satisfactory
road, have, now, an opportunity to
get to work on something. which If
they succeed will be of benefit to all
the people.

INCOME TAX.

From the Dover Index.
The ratification by the Delaware
Legislature of the constitutional
amendment giving Congress the pow
er to enact a law taxing incomes
made such an amendment a part OF
the Federal Constitution. Some years
ago Congress passed an income tax
law, but the Supreme Court of the
United States, by a close vote, de-
clared Il unconstitutional, on the
ground that the constitution did not
confer that power on Congress. That
law taxed all incomes of over $4,000
70 was a Democratic measure and
ever since the Democratic party has
favored such a measure and an amend
ment to the constitution permitting
Congress to pass II. At this time
an incoming Democratic Congress and
President favor a revision of the tar
in downward and a large free list,
which will necessarily reduce reyen-
ues ft is estimated that an income
tax will produce around 100000, 900,
which will make good a considerable
loss in tariff revenues II Is assured
that the special session of Congress
will not only revise the tariff. but will
also enact an income tax law. The
burdens Of tariff taxation in many in
stances fall heavily on those who are
least able to bear them. An income
tax will not be burden to any one.
but will be paid by those who can
best afford to pay tax
