The following is from the Dally News : From recent reports it is hard- ly probable that the Nittany furnace will resume operations for several months at least. The fires were banked several weeks ago with the hope of starting when spring opened. [here is a large stock of metal on hand at present and there is nothing to encour- age those who were employed at the furnace. Dr. Sparks expects to come to Btate College permanently early in May, if the repairs on the president’s residence are completed. He will give com. mencement addresses at the Allegheny High school, the Clearfield High school, and the Birmingham school, at Birmingham. He will also deliver the address of welcome to thy Penne sylvania Teachers’ Association during their meeting at State College in July. A reception to the teachers will be giv. en at the president's residence by Dr, and Mrs, Bparks on one of the even- ings of the meeting. In his testimony before the commit. tee of Congress to Investigate the Paper Trust John Norris swore that while the cost of producing a ton of paper Incressed 60 centsin 1907, the increase on the price of the same paper was $12a ton. But it will not do to assume that this Is an exceptions! or isolated case in the system of tariffs and-trust. The Bteel Trust and its tin. plate annex ; the Bugar Trust, the Ldmber Trust, and all their congeners, pursue much the same methods of de- spoiling the American people in the name of Protection. If the stand-pat- ters who control Congres will not per- mit the House to vote for repeal of the paper duties, what hope Is there that they will consent hereafter to a sub- stantifl reduction of more exorbitant ‘and oppressive tariff burdens ? The President is a very busy man, and finds that taking care of the Taft _ campaign leaves him little time to look after the welfare of “his subjects,” His one way of gaining over the ordi nary mortal is by signiog bills on Bun. day, which was done in ‘he case of the widows pension bill, sud now there are all kinds of questions arising over ‘the validity of the measure, One Hundred and Thirty-eight of the Two Hundred and Eight Directors Attend the Conventidn Superintendent David O. Etters was elected to succeed himself as superin- tendent of the public schools of Centre county for aterm of three years, the salary being that fixed by law, which is approximately $1680 per year in Cen- tre county. One hundred and thirty-eight of the two hundred and eight school direc tors responded to their names when the roll was called, and esch director cast his vote for the superintendent s re-election, a compliment not lightly received by the beneficiary, as was expressed in a neat address before the convention adjourned. The body assembled at eleven o'clock, Tuesday, in the Court House, and an organization was effected by electing I. L. Foster, of Btate College, chairman ; Henry CO. Quigley, Esq., of Beilef ute, secretary; Warren Ward, of Ferguson township; and B. W, Bmitn, of Centre Hall, tellers, After the election of the superinten- dent, Becretary Quigley, after arguing the case as he would before a jury, moved to increase the salary of the superintendent to $2000 per year. Ex- Senator Heinle followed in an indorse- ment of the Quigley sentiment. P. J. McDonnell, of Fleming ; Capt. C, T. Fryberger, of Philipsburg, and several others, expressed an opposite senti- ment. A yea and nay vote was taken, and the chair declared the motion lost, whereupon Becretary Quiczley called for a division. A rising vote was then taken, the result being as first an- nounced by the chair, A motion to make the salary $1800 was also defeated. The salary of county superintend- ents of schools is fixed by law, but the school directors, in convention assem- bled, have the undisputed right to in- crease in any sum the salary fixed by statue, such increase to be taken from the money appropriated by the state to the county. question : That the salary of each county super- intendent of common schools, elected hecording to law, in the year one thou- sand nine hundred and two, and there after, shall be ten dollars for each of the first one hundred schools within bis jurisdiction at the time of his elec. tion, five dollars for each school above one hundred and not over two hun- dred, and two dollars each for each school above two hundred : Provided, that the salary of a county superin- tendent shall in no case be less than one thousand dollars per anoum, nor mot? than two thousand dollars per annum : And provided further, that in all counties having twelve hundred square miles of territory, or a school term exceeding seven and one-half months, the salaries of sald superin- tendents shall not be less than fifteen hundred dollars : And provided furth- er, that a convention of school direct. ors, assembled for the purpose of elect. ing a county superintendent, may vote him a salary greater than the amount he would receive by this act, such ip- crease to be in all cases taken out of the school fund appropristed for the eounty thus voting. As was indicated by their voles, the directors had entire confidence in the ability and general fitness of Prof Etters for the office of county superin. tendent, and the refusal to increase the salary must not be taken as an in- dication of either dissatisfaction with his work nor lack of appreciation of his efforts, but the opposition was be- cause there was no disposition to add tax to increase asalary fixed by statute. A possible contributary cause to the overwhelming defeat of the measure, was the fallure to move honestly pre- sent the matter both before and in the convention by some of the advocates of an increase. Of course, Buperintend- ent Etters had no part whatever in this part of the program. A ———" John H. Snyder Seriously 111, Monday noon John H. Snyder, east of Centre Hall, received a parsiytic stroke and since his condition has been serious, although hopes are entertain ed for his recovery At noon on the day mentioned Mrs. Buyder went to an out kitchen to call her husband to dinner.
