Editorial Opinion
sUPERINTENDENTs' rOOR PAY.

From the Chester Morning Republic
can.
Delaware is a three-county State,
and one OF the most humiliating fea-
lures Of that Commonwealth's educa-
tional system is that its three County
Superintendents receive only $1,000
each year for the highly important
and arduous work they do Repre-
sentative Bradford has introduced in
the Legislature a bill to increase their
salaries to $500 each, and there is
certainly no measure before the AS
sembly that is more worthy OF sup
port than that one.
The idea Of asking a man to take
charge of and direct the educational
activities Of an entire county, with
from IT'S to 275 schools and hundreds
of teachers and thousands of pupils.
for less than $40 & week, is one that
should not commend itself to any man
who appreciates the value of educa-
tion and honest Industrious and eff
ficient effort
In New Jersey each of the twenty
one county school superintendents re-
ceives $4,000 a year; an allowance OF
$3.50 a year for travelling expenses,
an office in the county court house
and a stenographer at a salary OF
$500 a year. In Maryland the aver
age is from $500 to $4,000. In Penn
sylvania the average is more than
$2lO0. and forty-one counties pay
$500 or more

CRITICIzEs TEN.HOUR RILL.


To the Editor of THE EVENING
JOURNAL.
Sir:-There is a phase Of the Ten
Hour Law question of extreme i'm
portance which does not seem to have
come to the front in the recent dis
cussions.
In the first place the writer, from
the general tone of the discussion, as
sumes that the impending law is not
a final step This is somewhat con-
firmed by it appearance as a species
of class legislation, and the fact that
in such a case il would be extremely
premature because the present situa-
ton contains features of a reaction
from the side of the employer to that
of the laborer The employer has
been at fault in many instances and
through necessity the abrupt change
by many people in their point Of view
leads them 10 adopt theories and de-
terminations not firmly based, and
very liable to misconstruction The
honesty OF purpose and enthusiasm is
most genuine.
As a so-callcd step in the right di-
rection the present law seems most
unwise. The discussions do not tend
to Great harmony necessary for the
complete success Of such legislation,
in fact. work great harm Medical
data and statistics are furnished sud
denly by one viewpoint alone in an
swer to unknown. or perhaps partial
| ly concealed questions. asked and
given probably without the slightest
intention Of unfairness. These may
lead to strong preiudices. Skillfully
! choscn questions may bring any an
swers the questioner desires. The pro-
posed law therefore, seems to be un-
fair to tn Quetion itself, and, as the
general discussion has shown. will re-
suit in i'll feeling on all sides.
I do not offer a direct remedy but
submit the outline OF one, Let a COM
mission be appointed Immediately
containing equal representation OF
the employers, laborers and medical
point Of view Let II in fair spirit
take up all questions in this state
alone and in its vcrv hest judgment
! frame a law of sufficient elasticity
covering all questions i'm a fair way
The possibility OF such a law Is doubt.
ful but If not possible a permanent
commission can be created with eQua
representation with power to enforce
its rules regarding health and santa
tion in the store, factory. cannery
and even perhaps the kitchen. which
in some instances is the worst Of all

JOURNAL.
Sir-A monopolistic bill has been
presented to the Legislature and is
now in the hands Of the committee of
Municipal Affairs. It relates to a new
charter for the town of Lewes. The
bad feature Of the bill is a provision
that one vote may be cast for each
dollar corporation tax paid, and
request for 5000 more from the coun-
ty for the county road running
through Lewes, making $1,000 the
county would pay for the improving Of
this road each year. It is fact that
Lewes has been receiving $500 for
twenty years or more and there has
never been $4O0 spent in any one year
for many years 5000 would surely
cover the expense put upon the road
or street for many years. The com
mittee Of Municipal Affairs has in it's
hands a petition OF the Board of Com
missioners duly signed under seal OF
secretary, demonstrating. Ninety per
cent of the business firms and profess
sional men and approximately 300 cit
liens are demonstrating against the
proposed bill. All the remonstrants
are male corporation taxpayers If
this bill is not withdrawn from the
committee or reported unfavorably, or
If It does come before the House for
action a plot will be laid bare ex-
posing the matter.
Lewes has had experience Of the
one vote for each dollar tax for about
twelve years in the Board of Public
Works. and about fifteen men run this
election and elect whom they please
Let it be known that Lewes is bonded
for $65.000 for municipal improve
ments The electric light and water
