COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT.
In accordance with tiio state law on the
.subject, tho School Directors of tho county
will UHtciulila in Poltsvillo on Tuesday next
for tho purpose of ducting a County Superin
tendent of public M'hooli for si term of thico
years. There are but two prominent enihll
dutcs seeking tho position tho present in
cumbent, Prof. O. W. Weiss, of Schuylkill
Haven, and l'rof. J. W. Cooper, of town, who
is at pieKont principal of the Shenandoah
High school. Tho election is one of much
interest to tho peoplo, and they look to tho
Directors with the hope that they will have
due rugniil for tho responsibility devolving
upon thorn on Tuesday next.
Thu present Incumbent is uciinlidate for
lo-eloctlon, and wo believo bo should Lo
superseded by homo ono else fur several good
reasons. Reasoning from l'rof. Weiss' own
Mandpoint, when ho was first elected, ho
argued that no man should hold tho oilieo of
Cuulity Superintendent of Public Instruction
for more than two or three terms. Ho has
now held tho position forllftecn years, and
should itivo way to somo ono else. If l'rof.
Veisi was so tinn a believer in tho principle
of rolat on in oilico when ho succeeded Piof.
Xcvilin, it is nut usKih!? too much to allow
that principle to ho applied to himself at this
time. Within the past thirty-six years tho
position lias been tilled by but two men, and
the schools during that tuuo haNohad tho
benefit of their imliuJii.il iikas uloue;
whereas, if a change bad been made, say
every two or three terms, Ube principle upon
which Mr. Weiss placed gloat laitb before ho
was elected) the schools would have profited
by tho injection of new ideas und new
methods.
The statu school reports at hand show that
the principle of lotation it caiticd out in the
majority of the counties, and the result is
beiielicial to tho schools. In forty-three
counties the longest tenuiu is tlnce terms,
while in louitccn wo ilnil that four terms is
tlie longest, thus making lil'ty-suvcu counties
in which buporililcndcuis have been elected
lor terms nut longer than twelve years. It is
trim that when a change is contemplated it
should hoiuaUo with much caution. To lower
tho standard for the meio sake of making u
chaugo is wrung. Jlutit ism lino of prece
dent, in this state at Icit, and it is becoming
mute settled habit with each year, to place
new men with progressive ideas in the t op
tion of County .Superintendent, every two or
tluee tonus.
Tlio candidacy of Prof. Cooper, who is an
applicant for tho po-itiuu and whose election
appears to be a cirun result of the Directors'
convention, needs no commendation fioui us.
It fcpeiil.s for itself. As principal of tho Shen
andoah High school his lecord has been one
of much merit ; the school has made gieat
progress under his guiding hand, und tho
people of Shenandoah will part with him
with much rclULtunce. Tho School Hoard of
tjwn only expressed the sentiments of the
people, without regard to politics or creed,
when that body unanimously cndoritd his
landidaey for tho most Important oilico in the
gilt of tho people that of County Superin
tendent. 1'eiug a man of advanced attainments and
great executive ability, kuuwiug full well
the true standard uf teachers' ipualillcitious,
Mr. Cooper will allow no man to liillueuce
him to lower tho standard of the schools, or
tho iiualillcitions uf tho teachers, whether
that man lie a School Director or nut. Having
the weight and force of character to perfotm
tho duties of tho oilico with firmness und
impartiality, such base means as wo have
referred to will nut be countenanced during
his owtipuucy of tho ultico.
From advice received from different
auctions of tho county. Prof. Cooper will bo
the next County Superintendent of Publio
Instruction, ami tho wltmtiou will be a wise
one. Among all the available instructors in
the oouiity, we know of none moro worthy
and capable than tho present principal of tho
bheuatiduah Hbjli achool.

made 10.2079 knots, nud this reduction
means that tho contractors will got ?100,

the mutter stands, however, tho Massa
chusetts still holds tho record of her class.
