A WISE STEP.
After mouths of hesitation and discussion
the people of Girardville have at last taken
steps towards securing relief from a dearth of
w.itur and street lighting. - hi the latter
respect the borough is behiud every other in
the region, and in the matter of water ifcfli
shown itself little, if any, Vettttr. But
general change for the bettor seeius to le at
baud, and it is pleating to see that the
borough is now governed by a lwdy of men
who are alive to the general interests of the
place and have been able to present them in
aiich a light to the people as to aroiiso an
almost general desire for Improvement which
the size of the town requires.
At it last ueotyiug the Horough Council
awarded a Ave year contract to a 1'iuckville
com pauy to have its street IlluiuiiiuUxl by
twenty electric lights, ami at the same time
gave Instructions for an investigation to
tb'tortubie the cost nf erecting a 10,000,000
gallon reservoir on the O'Noil tract of laud
in the Utile Mahaitoy Valley and a reservoir
with a capacity uf from 8,000,000 to 8,000,000
gallons for distributing purposes, the estimate
to also include the cost of 0-iuch steel pipes
to i-ouuect the two reservoirs.
The iu lion of tile Borough Council is in
direct line with progress and au ultimate
enhancement of tlio vnluo of property
throughout tho town, A still moro enter
prising spirit might hiivo lieon shown If tho
street lighting contract hail heen provided for
mid itwiirded to homo enpitnllsts, but tho
start inado is a good one nml thoso who havo
undertaken it should recclvo the hearty
support of all the taxpayers and citizens of
tho town.
SHENANDOAH SCHOOL MATTERS.
A Mmily Dcfeneo of tlio Action uf Directors
or Ttint District.
IConiimiuicatsd
Editor Hmialo: The action of certain School
Director in appointing a qualified, instead of an
inexperienced, music teacher for the Shenandoah
Public Schools has nauually aioused the enmity
of n few narrow-minded and disappointed per
sons who would sacrifice everything to self inter
est in the nlacina of Instructors in our admirable
school system. Hut happily In thh) Instance a de
sire to be juit backed by precedent and State
law saved the fearless and conscientious direc
tors the humiliation of stultifying their manhood,
and opposing the wishes of their constituents
who overwhelmingly endorse the judgment exer
cised In the particular case. Slurs and innuendos
prompted by defeated selfishness, have ap
peared from time to time in a Pottsville paper,
with the object of creating disaffection among
the few who do not fully understand the motives
which led to the satisfactory result attained.
Th rnntttiatAil iilnas and venom exhibited hv
this splenetic correspondent may as well receive
an antidote now as at any ttuure time. Directors
who have the moral backbone to stand by their
ntitfilinna ami nn( lm ftWSVftd 1V tltOSe wllO are
endeavoring
to advance personal interest at tne
expense of our school i
chilil
Jren do not deserve to
be libelled and maligned by a party of midnight
nnliticians who
would cneeriuny violate
estah-
llshed customs and law in their
efforts to gain
their ends.
Believing in the principle that economy, jus
tice, custom and State law should govern the ac
tions of School Directors In the filling of vacan
cies in our corps of teachers, we feel satisfied
that this principle has been adhered to In this
case. The selection we made was clearly in line
with tho old established rule of promoting any of
the old corps of teachers to higher positions
when they present the proper credentials. Surely
no right-thinking person can see any vindictive
ness in such a course. No wire-pulling, political
influence or other pressure would be sufficient to
proveut upright men from carrying out such n
policy. The people who elected us gave us credit
tor possessing at least the common Instincts of
manhood, and we shall continue in all our future
actions, as in the present case, to justify the os
timato placed upon us, tho idle vaporings and
mouthings of disgrunted people to the contrary
notwithstanding.
Our defence, If any is needed, for doing what
was eminently just and proper, may bo summed
up as follows:
1. A bad precedent is established by takine up
an inexperienced person to fill a responsible
position, especially when we havo no less than
twenty-two (22) tried and competent reachers from
our old corps who could givo us infinitely better
service.
2. It would be a direct violation of the law
,-nl, t,naltv nt lnnin.. the State annronriation,
or about $19,000,001, to elect a music teacher who
eked the necessary certincate ox ijiittiim-auwii.
5. A mrtlficato is the only and safest guide in
controlling the selection of a teacher.
4. The election of Miss Wasley to the position
made a vacancy in the corps of teachers which
wo could fill from the ranks of 14 old applicants,
all graduates or and holding normal scnooi cer
tificates. Four of them have been knocking at
our doors for four jcars. How unjust it would be
to shut them out, and take up an inexperienced
person on first application.
5. We allowed the light of reason to enter into
our deliberations and not views evolved In tlio
oImwIc! ntmnanliprp fif midnight reSOrtS.

e eiim nf f.Sn fl
Is this economy right, or snouiu we nave squan
dered this inonty.
7. We oclieve it is wrong to cnaige uui tuwuu
with a new teacher at 60.00 per month, when we
pan secure an cxnerienced Normal graduate at
Our schedule of wages, which is strictly ad
hered to, is as follows:
hirst year's service 35 00
Second year's service 35 00
Third years service 37 00
courtu year s servitu - -
Fifth year's service 4200
sittl) vpnr's service 45 oo
Seventh year's service 48 oo
Hiehth vear's service 5
It can readllv be seen by tile above table that a
pnntinti.l cr.rv!rn nf eiolit vears amounts
$3,320.00. Miss Wasley would receive by right of
IMUU 3C1 VilO jpu.w J'G. ivu., w j
In urnTiintmiT
Her, and electing oiiss tsase suojeci
to the schedule, which after eight years service
would be 53,320 there would be a clear saving of
SG80 or more man enougn to cover uie &uiary u.
music teacher for one year.
Nnw. no intelhaent or well-balanced person
who believes in the economical administration of
ur school business, would givo us credit lor
throwing away a sum like the above in order to
place an outside applicant (even nliowing all
qualifications to be equal) as music teacher to
developed a pecuniary luierebi in uypuiiiuiiuma
to our staff of teachers.
A word as to our caucuses. We went into our
first caucus with only eight members, Mr. James
being absent and repeatedly declaring he would
not attend a caucus. At tho meeting there were
applicants to be considered. After some discus
sion we proceeded to vote on two, Miss Wasley
and Mis6 Morgan, the latter being supported by
four members, not wnustancling me laci mat
they knew that certificates of qualifications were
necessary and not lurnisned Dy tneir cuoice.
The result was of course a tie. Upon the strength
of Mr. James' assertion we consented to go into a
second caucus knowing that with eight members
we could hold our own In the endeavor to win the
point for which we were striving. Hut behold
Sir. Tames has a change of heart and for reasons,
which he will not divulge, but which may be
easily guessed at, he attended the second caucus
in accordance with the causo of his sudden
conversion. The result could be only what they
figured on, 5 to 4 in favor Miss Morgan. We ot
tered to compromise and gave them the choice
of any applicant who possessed the requisite
diploma, but in vain; it was Miss Morgan or
nothing. Satisfied that we did all In our power
to hx on a teacner wuose appointment wuum w
in compliance witn tne law we ceastu our euons.
Th Hnard met the following Wednesday. Au
gust 14, to fill the vacancy. The business had not
irnrf.iefi verv iar ueiore our wormy ouiiuiiii-
tendent of Schools and several Democratic, mem
bers, whoso knowledge or law ana precedent in
cirli rn&ns is far suncilor to that disnlavcd hv the
adherents of Miss Morgan, warned the Board by
pungent and pertinent remarKS mat tliey snouiu
no carefully, as the law was very strict in the
matter, and all annllcauts must have proper cer
tlficates. Mr. Ilanna referred to the statutes in
question, and the Superintendent read aloud
tor the benefit of those whose business it was to
have been alreatly llilormed. illlfa nomusnell
stopped proceedings after a motion was passed
n.nniriiiB all anolicanls to furnish the board witii
their certincates on the occasion of its next and
final meeting August iq. All the applicants, wttli
tha eiceution of Miss Morgan, presented their
diplomas at this time, some of them dating as tai
back as 1K87. Miss Morgan presented a letter of
qualification dated three days after the meeting
Ol AURUSt 14. ine uuumuee uu i eatucix aim
Salaries wunt into session and in consideration of
th late issue and character of Miss Morgan's
credentials did not consider tneui, but recoin
mended the names of Misses Wasley, Cavanaunh
Deuiler and Cooean. This was with the consent
of Messrs. Prirr and Baugh. members of the
committee, who u not satisfied should nave pre
pared a minority report which they failed to do.
The Board acted on the recommendation and
elected Miss Wasloy, three Democratic votes be
ing the brst cast for her. It was not necessary
for us to enter into collusion with tha Democratic
members, as we knew they understood the law.
Oo the contrary it is a notorious fact that the
other side solicited the aid of prominent Irish
cilisens in winning over Democratic members.
But to the credit and honor of those be it said,
that they would not or could not be swayed from
tha path of duty to assist persons who were mak
ing a last desperate effort to grasp the plum that
at one time seamed illegally within their reach.
It is surprising to us how intelligent lm-iutui
of the Board could be led astray by the diminu
tive minds of a few unpopular men who si tuplt
at nothing to further their own welfare. Three of
the men who supported Miss Moi.m made
candid admissions before the final inectui that
tbey knew they were pursuing the u ron ourt. .
one of them giving lias his xiubi, tliut he
wanted to get even with somebody.
Ye Gods what high minded diiectorbhip!
We must apologirn for consuming so inm n
space, but oner us an eicuse a desire to let oui
constituents know what we have done. We art'

TIIK QUAKE IN NEW JEItSEV.
Tho Disturbance Affected Only th North
ern rortlon of the Stnte.
JuttsEY City, Sept. 2. Now Jcrsoy felt
tho foreo of tho earthquake, tho tremor ox
tendlnc throughout tho northern part,
while the southern section appears to havo
escaped tho oxperlenco entirely. From all
of tho cities and villages In tho northern
section tho story received is tho same. Tho
shock was preceded and accompanied by
tlio low rumbling sound that marks tho
truo earthquako. This trembling motion
lasted for several seconds. In some places
tho estimate of tlmo is as low as thrco
seconds, while others plnco tho duration
of tlio dlsturbanco nt from ten to twenty
seconds. Tho general courso of tho shock
was from east to west.
Thcro Is much difference- in tho reports
ns to tho truo direction from which the
shock camo. Tho early hour is perhaps
responsible for this difference of opinion,
as tho majority of thoso who felt and
heard tho shock wcro nwnkened from their
sleep by tho sound, and tho vibrations and
tho quake ceased before they had recovered
consciousness, and wcro sulllciently awako
to realize tho causo of tho trouble. Tho
shock does not appear to havo been suffi
cient to causo much damage.
In all places tho effects appear to have
been about tho samo. Houses wcro shaken
and dishes broken, but nothing worso than
this bus been reported. Tho mountain dis
tricts appear to havo felt tho vibrations tho
most keenly. That section of Patcrson
which is situated on higher ground was
generally shaken, whllo tho pcoplo living
in tho lower sections of tho town report
having felt nothing of tho effects of tha
quako. Tho shock enmo between 0:01! and
6:05 11. m. Tho towns along tho ocean
shore report little dlsturbanco in couse
quence of tho earthquako.
Trenton and Bordentowu report that the
earthquako cvme with a loud rumbling
sound, which was at tirst thought to bo tho
wind or tho rattling of a heavy wagon.
Thero was n very perceptible vibration, tho
shaking of houses and tho rattling of win
dows being plainly felt.
Reports of violent vibration also como
from Burlington, Palmyra, Freehold and
Toms Itiver, and nt tho latter place, It is
said, a second shock was felt at 3 o'clock in
tho afternoon.
