An Open Letter. To T. A. Snyder, County Superintendent Schools in Carbon County; Some lime ago either you or one of yur most ardent and enthusiastic friends caused to bo published in the Caitoon Advocate a local which stated that tbe proprietors of the Popular Educator, an educational paper published at Boston, had gotten up a handsome lithograph of the most popular educators in Pennsylvania and that on this list you stood fifth in point of popularity. Further that the proprietors of this paper bad sent out circulars to the teachers of Pennsylvania asking each teacher to vole for the three educators in Pennsylvania that he considered the most popular. The result of this election accord ing to the local was most gratifying as It placed you, Mr. Snyder, fifth In point of popularity among the teachers ot the Keystone State. Dr. N. C. Schaeffer, of the Kutztown Normal School stood eighteenth on this list, Dr. Waller, Jr., of tbe Bloomsburg Normal School who has sinco been appointed to succeed the lamented Dr. Higbee as State Superinten dent was not popular at all with the teachers as his picture does not appear at all on this lithograph. So much, Brother Snyler, tor the local. Now for tho fact. This gratuitous pleee ot Information come to me very unexpected' through a teacher in the schools of Carbon county. I bad not participated la this grand election, neither oould I, upon Ibquiry, find any teacher at this end of the county who bad voted foi three of the most popular educators. This then further aroused my curiosity and I determined to investigate the matter fully haying, how. eyer, yet at the time an Idea that perhaps after all such an election had taken place among tbe teachers, and that I bad perhaps not taken enongh degrees for exercising such a dignified right ot suffrage, I con eluded therefore to mall a letter of inquiry to the publishers ot the Popular Educator and to Include with this letter the local clipped from the Advocate. Their answer to this local is in my possession and Id this letter they most emphatically deny that snch an election was held in Pennsylvania and that they had sent circulars to the teachers ot Pennsylvania asking tbem to vote for three educators tbey considered tbe most popular. They aleq affirm that tbe number on your chest (moral box does not mean popularity In the least, they say the numbers were placed there by the engraver as he thought best and that be never knew one of the portraits so that the numbering was Im partial. The numbers were placed there by the engraver to associate the picture and the name at the bottom of the sheet. Now Mr. Snyder a few questlous. Did you not tell some of our school directors In your electioneering when yon handed tbem the lithographs that these were tho most popular educators In Pennsylvania and that on this (1st you stood fifth? Did yu rot tell them that youwere very popular throughout Pennsylvania, this election bearing evidence to the fact? Did you not tell them that Ibe Popular Educa tor bad sent circulars to tbe teachers in Pennsylvania and that each teacher bad voted the three educators he considered tho most popular? Did you not get an extra supply to furnish each director with one of these handsome lithographs? Have you any left yet? The directors at Buck Moun tain hav not got any yt and as you neglected their school altogether this year tbuy hope you will be more generously disposed toward them with your litho graphs. Now Mr, Snyder, If you, or your friends, are guilty ot such statements you are uttering sabs lies.
