SQUELCH MRS. PANknUkS1.

There ought to be seine way of shutting off speeches by Mrs. Pank- hurst during the war. Besides, she is harming the suffrage cause, being 1nly a professional agitator whose spcutings are more frenzied than iine. She is connected with the law breaking London suffragettes ane there is no reason why she and her kind should be taken seriously in America. There are too many Of that breed Hooking about, getting their pictures in the papers and making a noise to catch the public ear, not to mention the influence exerted on the public purse.
 A great editor recently remarked: "We know they are publicity-chasers but we've got to put their pictures and stories in the paper to tickle the crowds"
 A mighty poor way of squelchlns them. A better way would be not u mention their names at all for a year CT so; then their flames would go out with the speed of candle i'll storm
 Just now Mrs. Pankhurst purports to be press agenting for the alll2o cause. Like every other cause she is connected with, she is hurting It. The other day she said German wcfn- en were nothing more than bao9 breeders. For woman to publicly insult motherhood, state that every man honors and which Womanls women adore, conclusively indicates this womans cast of mind.
 If Mrs. Pankhurst has as muc: brains as she credits herself WILL having she would restrain herself aho not give public demonstranons U how little she is.

It is said that Reedy Vance, who refused pardon tendered him by tne governor with the proviso that ha re- main outside of Pulaski county, is earning $1G00 a year at the state farm and that his stock of tobacco, etc., is worth $1500. Reedy must be good business man tu make such profit out of his opportunity. If he were a member of the prison commls- sion, it is only fair to presume that his thrift would prompt him to charge another convict doing such a profitable business for rent, board and lodging, as well as for over head expense, such as guarding, etc. Maybe, Reedy would be willing to remain outside of Pulaski if he were given a berth on the prison beard. And it might not be such bad thing for the state, either.

 ssThe northern bank of the river Aisne has been cleared of French troops. By continuous fighting we were successful in taking Kufieres, Cruey, Bucy-1e-Long, Missy, as well as Vauxrot and Valerie. The French retreat to the south of the Aisnes took place under the fire of our heavy ar ti1Iery. The conditions which obtain ed in this battle were very similar to those which prevailed in 1870. Even though the two battles 4north of Sois- sons are not comparable to those of August Is, 1870. the battle field was about as wide. as that at Gravelotte and St. Privat.'s

nevertheless it is an increase and the Teachers Association will be satis- fled with it for the time being.
 At present graduates of the City salary of $500 per year. This salary is increased $50 fort every year of experience until the teacher reaches the maximum salary for the particu- lar grade in which she is assigned to instruct. The board of education in hiring teachers from other towns takes none but those who have had teachers begin at a salary of $500 per year which is the same as teach CTS who have had two years at teaching in the public schools here.
 It is estimated that the proposed elevation of the scale of wages will mean but $11.3O0- increase in sappro- priations per annum and was held by a majority of the members to be desirable both from the viewpoint of comparison with salaries paid to- fire men and policemen as well as other cities in New England.
 When forced to vote Elmer H. Ha- vens, William A. Bell, N. W. Bishop and W. B. Boardman, voted no. Dr.. ". Osborne. Dr. William Ryan, Louis Schwerdtle, John J. Cu11inan, Robert Goddard, Howard s. Chal- 1engef and John A Hurley voted yes. ". B. Webster. Jr., was not at the meeting.
 A request to make the salaries of all teachers uniform which had been made by the Teachers Association was not in favor and after some dis cussion the teachers were given per- mission to withdraw their request.
 The radse granted last night comes after months of fight upon the teach- CTS and their Associations and will eff feet nearly two-thirds of those ern- ployed in the public schools in Bridgeport.
