That "town war Scrautou" will
need to bo good, to deserve the high
honor of its propinquity.
The Poor Pay of Teachers.
The salaries paid to tho public school
teachers in this city compare favorably
with those paid for similar work iu
corresponding cities iu tho state. Sev
eral months ago, in demonstration of
this assertion, wo punted comparative
wlutiaties, which are, unluckily, not
accessible at this iustant; but it will
not, we fancy, need a prolonged pres
entation of figures to secure general
acceptance of our proposition. o
that, when criticism is made upon the
paucity of the pay doled out to those
earnest and able men and women who
comprise the vast majority of the in
structors of our youth, it will be under
stood that there is no intention to re
flect upon the present members of tho
local board of control, but rather upon
the broad system which seems to re
gard as of minor worth the work done
ju the public school rooms.
A prominent Scrautouiau, engaged
in a certain branch of commerce, re
cently remarked within our heariug
that lie had, upon that day, "cleared
$5,000." The element of chance or
luck may bo argued iu this man's be
half; but it would still remain the fact
that with scarcely more than average
attainments and with certainly not
more than the average school teacher's
faithfulness to duty, this gentlemau
had, as a consequence of one day's
trading, prolited more largely thau
five average male touchers of equal
ability would, together, protit from a
whole year's exacting mental work in
the school room Even in the cusu of
the salaried men in the other learned
professions it remains true that the
average wage is much higher than in
tho case of the pedagogue. The men
who earn $2,000 and 3,000 and even
1,000 per year in our city as architects,
tngincrs, clergymen, physicians, at
torneys, dentists, etc., are uiucti mure
numerous than are the teachers who
receive $!,0UO anil $1,500 a year; and
tiicy do not work harder nor do more
nor better work than is done by the
teachers.
We were amused not long ago when
an employer of teachers in this city
told us that out of hundreds of appli
cations received by him for positions
in the faculty of a private school, not
one had presumed to ask more than
$1,000 a year fur his services; while the
great majority had asked decidedly
less. . This ;rentltnmn seemed to regard
it nsa particularly notable feature of
his own experience that he had once
pnid $110 a month toan instructor from
whose attenti voserviees he had largely
been enabled to accumulate an Inde
pendent fortune. Yet had this gen
tleman gone to a lawyer for advice, a
physician for medicine, a clergyman
for spiritual consolation, a dentist for
relief from pain or toan architect for
plans of a house, he would have
thought nothing of having paid twice
or thrice as much money for tho same
grade of service. Still, the moldors of
brain and character, who do their work
upon the pupil in a manner that often
carries with it tho determination of
the pupil's success or failure in life,
arc content to beg for the pennies and
the dimes, while the other fellows get
the dollars and the eagles.
Discerning an evil aud curing It are
two different things. We do not pre
tend to know how teachers, as a class,
can get more pay. We only know
that they are underpaid; and that their
easy acquiescence in this depreciatlve
rating is responsible in a largo degree
for the meagreness of their wages It
is well that teachers should give their
whole work to teaching. The Jack-of-all-trades
is master of none. But when
the teacher gives his whole mind and
soul and ambition and future to tho
dry routine of the school room, it
would be fair to give to the teacher in
return wages commensurate with his
work, wages that will euublo hiui to
feel repaid for his toil.
Tins city has had few officials
more faithful, modest, unassuming
and conscientious than was Harry It.
Madison. He was a man who did his
whole duty in all capacities; a loyal
and warm hearted friend, an obedient
son and one of nature's genuine noble
men. May his rest be peaceful as his
life was true.
It is too early to place credence In
the reports of disaster alleged to have
befallen the Wellman Arctic-exploring
party. The venture of Walter Well
man was a foolhardy one, not worth
its rika and deprivations; but the
good Yankee pluck In the man is not
likely to have been exhausted at the
first tribulation. Arctic exploration as
pursued iu this Instance is a foolish
fad, and one with which we have no
sympathy; but when undertaken by so
good a Journalist as Walter Wellman,
it excites wishes for the explorer's sue-
cess and enkindles the hope that the
glacial frosts of the Arctic circle -will
not rob America of a flrst-cluss news'
paper man merely to furnish forth a
Polar bear holiday.
Senator Hill Is really too able a
ruau to waste his talents in tho role of
a Mephistopholos. Ho has it in him
to rise to higher honors.
Wii are not sure that compulsory
arbitration would be a complete suc
cess at the first jump; but the sooner a
fair start is made, the sooner will tho
ultimate solutiou be reached. Pro
crastination iu this matter is assuredly
the thief of peace.
Senator Hill's defense of O rover
Cleveland is strikingly suggestive of
Satan's rebuke of sin.
The center of the anthracite indus
try is entitled to a state hospital if any

Others have their appropriations; it is
high time we had ours.
Compulsory Arbitration Defined.
One of the common arguments
against compulsory arbitration is thus
worded by the Chicago Journal:
"When the labor unions shall make
themselves responsible financial bodies
and shall bind their men to stick to
contracts under palu of heavy loss of
pooled earnings aud savings it may be
time enough to talk of compulsory ar
bitration, but not until then." Tho
same idea is thus expressed in differ
ent words by the Pittsburg Dispatch:
"While the law might force employers
to abido by the finding of a compulsory
arbitration, how will it force employes
to work if the finding does not suit
them? The very idea of men driven
to work against their wills is monstrous,
and, in addition to that, it would be
futile, for compulsory work, in nine
cases out of ten, is valueless."
Did it ever occur to these publicists
that the courts already, by restraining
injunctions, recognie the vital princi
ple in compulsory arbitration when
they compel the performance of dis
puted contracts during the legal set
tlement of the points nt issue? A la
bor organization deriving its charter
from the courts could be dissolved aud
robbed of its organic standing before
tho law were it to refuse to obey the
mandate of tho law after having a
peulcd to that law for redress. Public
sentiment demands compulsory arbi
tration as a measure of self-protection.
For labor to declare that it would not
obey a compulsory arbitration law
wiili public sentiment back of it would
be to proclaim anarchy and revolu
tion flatly aud outright. Wo do not
believe, In the first place, that organ
ized labor Is thin anarchistic or revo
lutionary; nor, stcoiidiy, that if it
were, it could long resist the forces of
law and order.
Compulsory arbitration could not bo
made what its name implies without
the active co-operation of public sen
timent. Nobody contends that it
could. The only point contended by
advocates of compulsory arbitration is
th-it' public sentiment, after a long
period of patient indiil'erenie to its own
interests, ia now ready, or almost
ready, to co-operate earnestly iu tho
sustenance of a law which shall protect
innocent third persons against tho
bulk of the enormous damage inllicted
iu the economic civil warfare known
as great strikes.
The opportunities of free adver
tising iu this glorious American
country are eutiroly too numerous.

When tariff tinkering rogues fall
out, there is hope that the interests of
hone3t industry may yet escape spolia
tion. The Granting of Franchises.
The City club of Gotham has formu
lated this article, . which it wants in
serted in tho proposed newconstitutiou
of New York state:
No franchise which may bo'Oporito l in,
bIou?, over, andcr, or hcrosy any of tn.
public streets nr placau ia any city ia tho
sUW sbull be grautol to or acquired by
nuy person othor tbiiu such city, iin'e.so by
tbutxpions nuthoiity uud ootMuiit of the
local nutligvitiai of such city ia piirsuuuca
ot a general law. Tua terms of tl:o grunt
of every mch fraucliiso sUnll providu for
componsaMuu to on paid to th city, oittier
by way of a ningla payrnvnt or of an an
nual runtnl or a proportionate vlmra of tbe
receipts; or a combination of such methods,
sncb compensation to be ascertained by na
appraisal by couiuiisuiouxr appoiuted by
the supreui court. And in nil cse tho
grunts shnll bi for not to oxood thirty
years unci tuny contain provisions for re
newals for li lie psriods on appraisals by
comaiissioniTs to be appointed by the su
pra tua court.
The adoption of the foregoing article
would be a wholesome victory for good
government; but it is a consummation
to be wished rather than expected. No
adequate reason lias ever been ad
vanced in behalf of tho marked inferi
ority of American municipal govern
ment to that lu vogue in many Euro
pean cities an inferiority more nota
bly, perhaps, in our prodigal bestowal
of valuable franchise grunts than in
any other particular. The cynicul re
mark of the elder Vanderbilt supplies
tho "principle" upon which this prodi
gality largely rests; yet under our form
of government if "the public be d d"
it is the public's own fault. It has the
remedy in Its own sovereignty and
that It does not of tener apply it is noth
ing less thau a bewildering anomaly
utterly without rational explanation.
Antecedent to an eifective incorpora
tion into the organic law of such an
article as the. foregoing must, there
fore, come such an education of public
sentiment as will reconcile the public
to honesty in the administration of its
ailairs. It is doubtful If at this stago
of the reform movement the American
people would feel at ease under a muni
cipal system which failed to mulct
them heavily in favor of corporate
greed and ollleial rapacity.
Ws beg to correct the Indiana cor
respondent of the Washington Post in
the following particular:
The only sure hold for a gin the Repub
lican! bad wui in the Tenth, and uuless
BouiethioK It dooo that will be frittered
away. The district ia naturally Kepub
lu'un by a small plurality. It was lout iu
lb'jo by Mm. Owous, who is now the Re
publican cuudidate for secretary of state,
owing to disappointments about the dis
tribution of patroungo.
No "Mrs. Owens" is "now the Re
publican candidate for secretary of
state" iu Indiana. The era of women
in politics may eventually reach to
Indiana, us It has to some other west
ern commonwealths; but it hasn't
arrived there yet. Tho "Mrs. Owens"
in the Post's mind is cx-Keprcsenta-tive
William D. Owen, formerly super
intendent of Immigration, author of
the Owen immigration law, a cultured
Christhiu gentleman and scholar, aud
a politician who was beaten in 1800
simply because his antagonist had the
most votes.

DID YOU E1TER
Have "that tired feeling" come over you when you saw shamefully dis
played in bold-faced type that hoary mercantile chestnut
"Selling Off at Cost?"
The expression is about as old as deception some say it originated with
Ananias-anyhow.it is preserved in the hieroglyphics and cuneiform in
scriptions of cities whose merchants have been dust and ashes for a thou
sand years.
Our prices, when compared with others, are
THAN COST
Especially Now at Our
fT9
tfl ? o
It has been our practice ever since we entered into
the mercantile arena not to carry any goods over from
one year to the other, and in order to accomplish this
purpose we look at neither cost or value, but put the
price on every seasonable article so that somebody is
bound to take it. Our busy store will always verify
this assertion.
