LANCASTER D'AILY ETELMGECfeR THUBSD AY1 APRffi 12, 1883.:
WHO SHALL IT BE?
CUCS HUPKKINTENDENCY CONTEST.
Seme or the Candidates Named A Nainber
Te Flak Frem Who Jjuall Name film.
The question of filling the office of coun
ty superintendent of public schools, te be
made vacant by the election of Prof. B. F.
Shaub te the principalship of the Millers,
ville normal school, is being .discussed in
seme measure among prominent educators,
although it is net likeiy that Prof. Shaub'g
. insinuation will take place bofeio August
or September.
It is reported that btate (Superintendent
Higbee has said that he would appoint te
the vacancy the candidate named by the
faculty audi trustees of the Millcrsville
normal school, and it is argued from this
that Prof. Isaac Gejst, principal of the
Marietta high school, has the inside track
as he is known te have several very warm
friends in the school, including the newly
elected principal. Prof. Geist has had
long experience as a teacher and is a man
of unblemished character, but it isdeubted
by many whether he possesses sullicieut
executive ability or has sullicieut personal
force te make him a suitable successor te
Prof, tihaub.
Prof. Benjamin Ames, superintendent of
the public schools of Columbia borough,
has many friends who urge him as the
best man for the position. Besides his
acknowledged natural ability, scholarship
and long experience, they point te bis
great success in the Columbia schools, his
introduction of new ideas, and new modes
of imparting instiuctien, as eminently
titling him for taking command of a larger
field, aud lifting the hchoels of the mere
backward districts out of tlie worn ruts in
which they have been allowed te run.
There axe ethers who doubt whether Prof.
Ames would accept the position of county
superintendent, or, if he did, whether he
would feel at home among the ungraded
schools, or would be able te de as much
geed as he is doing in his present position.
Prof. 11. K. JJuehrle's name has been
mentioned in connect ion with the office,
aud his eminent litness te 12 1 1 it is
acknowledged by all who knew him. But
he is net a candidate, aud it is doubtful if
he would accept the place if tendered him.
Ah city superintendent of Lancaster he
has been doing excellent work in re-organizing
aud impievmg the schools, aud he
Kin no doubt held his pict-eut position as
long as he wants it.
Milten Breeht, principal of the soldiers'
orphans school at Mount Jey, has been
mentioned as a candidate, lie is a gradu
ale of the Milleisville normal school, aud
before being appointed te his present pe:i
tieu was principal of the schools at
Mauheim. He is a man of very consider
able feice, and has filled the positions he
has held with credit te himself and ad
vantage te schools.
Charles B. Keller, ptincipil of the
Strasburg high school, has many admirers
in all paitsef the county. He is always
a prominent figute iu our county institutes
aud under his management the Strasburg
schools stand at the head of the list in tlus
county. That he would make a pjpular,
efficient aud progressive ceuuty suporin superin suporin
tendout is net doubted.
Frank Griest, late principal of the boys'
secondary school in Mulbciry slieet, this
city, and at piesent cleik te the ceuuty
commissioners, has been named by frieuds
as a proper person for the place. He was
very popular as a teacher, and when by
reason of a quarrel with one el the mem
hers of the beard of directors he resigned,
his pupils took it se much te heart that
they almost rebelled against his success
ors, ami it was net until the old leaven
was worked out ei the mass and the
present excellent teacher selected that the
school returned te its normal orderly con
dition. Mr. Griest's health is net very
geed, his sight is a geed deal impaiicd and
it is altogether possible that he would
find relief from his present epnfiniiig
duties iu the varied experience of a county
sux'iiuteiident's work. When the ipies
turn" was asked him which of the candi
dates named would best li 1 1 thu position,
he unheMtatingly answered, "Prof. Ames."
David Evans, ex county .Mipciiutendeiit
has many friends among the elder teachers
and directors, some of whom think it
would be a geed thing te have him re- ip
pointed, but Mr. Evaus is net a candidate,
ami says he would uet ;icccpt the office if
offered.
James C. Gable, first assistant teacher
in the boys' high school, this city.whe was
the llrst candidute nominated for the pros
peclive vacancy, aud the first te promptly
decline, would make a lirst-rate supeiin
teudcut, but being out of the Held it is uet
necessary te discos his merits. Heis an
.'.rdeut friend of the schools, awl is desirous
te have the oHieeof ceuuty superintendent
tilled with the very best man that can be
found, whether he be a resident of this
ceuuty or state or of some ether state.
Among the friends and elose acquain
tances of Dr. Uigbee in this city, the idea
that he will let the normal school trustees
make thu appointineut for him receives 1:6
credit. Such a delegation of his power
anil duties is said te be entirely incon
sistent with his character and his
appieciatieu of his official duties. He aud
the normal school authorities may agree
iu their estimate of the relative fituess of
the candidates, but he will act independ
ently of their dictation ; nor will politic 1
influences control the appointment. He
will leek for the best school man, regard
less of Millersville, or political considera
tions, or even the " bhricks of locality."
In many quarters there is cxpres3ed the
conviction that it will be botter te go out
side the rity for the coming man, net only
because theie is none in the county con
spicuously lit, but because a stranger will
infuse new life and vigorous bleed into the
system, aud will corae here free from local
entanglements and bias. Among the
names of persons from outside the county
that of Jesse Newliu, of Pottsville, priuci
p.l of a school thcre aud late suporintend
ent of Schuylkill county, is mentioned as
au csjiecially worthy one.
