FREE EDUCATION.
Freoland, February 8, 1895.
Editor Tkiuuik.—As a eltlzon of
Frooland (prond of Its past history, hope
ful and anxious for Its future), I ask for
space In yonr eolnmas to voice a fow im
promptu thoughts that occurred to mo
whilo roading a communication in yes
terday's rrogrest over tho non do plume
of "Extra."
I heartily agree with my friend "Ex
tra" that it Is tho duty of every good
citizen to elevate the standard and im
prove tho facilities for education. I will
go furthor than my friond when I say
that It Is a duty wo owe to Ood and to
our country, to onr neighbor, ourselves,
and the rising generation, yoa, to gener
ations yot unborn. So far my friond
and I agree as to what should bo dono,
but when It comes to his mot-hods of
doing It I emphatically dissent from his !
warped reasoning and biased thought.
Tho writer has no choice as to whero
tho school building stands. All I ask is
that tho money colloctod from all the
people for educational purposes be ex
pended honestly and intelligently. While
charity compels mo to say that my
' friend "Extra" may be. honest in his
1 convictions, and zealously performing
his duty as ho understands It, justice
and oqnlty demand that a fow of his
rambling oxhortatlons bo quoted to show
my readers tho shallowness of his rea
soning and tho donso montal fog that
envelopes him.
Mr. Extra says: "It next becomes
the duty of ovcry lover of free education
to choose for himself who shall bo direc
tors of the public schools, in order that
his children may be properly taught,"
and ho continues "Voters of Freoland
borough do not voto for men for school
directors who do not sond their own
children to our schools and will there
fore care nothing for the education of
yours."
This mental pigmy, whoover he may
be, has tho faculty of nslng catchy, gilt
edged phrases, which ho doos not appoar
to understand. What doos ho mean by
"free education?" Is it not a fact that
education In this broad and glorious land
is as free as tho winds that fan our na
tlvo hills? Is it not a fact that "free
education" Is a part and parcel of tho
constitution and fundamental law? Is
it not a fact that all citizens, irrespec
tive of raco, creed or color, are thankful
for tho blessings of "freo education" and
ready and willing to dofond and porpotu
ate it?
Tho mask of hypocrisy is torn from
tho face of this solf-constltuted advisor
of tho Intelligent citizens of Freoland.
This great patriot is dofondlng "freo
education" from tho assaults of a mythi
cal too, when he appeals to tho citizens
of Frooland to voto against certain men
for school directors bocauso they avail
themselves of tho blessings and boneflts
of "freo education" by Bonding their
children whore they ploase.
( Noxt this great defender of "free edu
cation" asks: "How many pupils from
Freoland and surrounding villages go to
Hazloton to school bocauso wo cannot
accommodate them," but ho gives no
doflnlto reasons why they goj ho simply
says wo cannot accommodate them. My
Dear Mr. "Extra," why can't wo accom
modate thom? Is thoro not room for
them In our schools, or are they so far
advanced that our corps of Instructors
can advance thom no farther? Lot us
havo some definite iu formation on the
subject and I havo amplo beliof in the
Integrity of our citizens to put things
right. Until this Is done It would bo
woll for our citizens to withhold judg
ment and'investigate tho causes that
compel many citizens to send their chil
dren to bo oducatod at Hazloton and
olsowhero and avail thomselvos of tho
bouoflts of our glorious freo educational
system, which this extraordinary "Ex
tra" dofonds and assails,
i The writor has no candidate for school
director. Our political convictions soar
above raco, sect or party. Show ine
tho moil who aro not seeking tho ollice
for "what's in it," who dare to do right,
tvho will bo tho school directors of all
tho people, and not of any particular
clique; who will spend tho people's
money honestly and Intelligently, who
will raise the standard of education out
of tho narrow rut into which dema
gogues and fools have dragged it—show
mo those men and I will cheerfully voto
for thom, and I havo belief in the Integ
rity of my fellow cilizous of Freoland to
do likowise. Independent.

pany the right of way througn town was

Central and I). S. & S.—lfazlelon Sentinel.
The llazlo Mines Jim is giving tho
Lehigh Valley peoplo considerable more
trouble than was expected. It is assert
ed there is too much bosslsm connected
with tiie work. The mine foreman and
ji he general superintendent would bo
sufficient to direct tho operations, in
stead there arc nearly a dozen oilioials
giving orders.
The sub-committee of tho anthracito
committee on-percentage, which has for
somo time past been trying to make up
a plan which will be acceptable to all
interested, expects to report to tho full
committee this week.
The dullness and low prices which
havu characterized tho anthracite trade
also prevail in the bituminous trade,
and this variety of coal is cheaper than
jit lias*been for some time. Tho coal
I sold lately as low as $3 a ton.
' Tho court has appointed E. L. Bul
i lock, George McGee and Thos. Thomp
son as the mine foremen's examining
board for this district. Anthony Roilly
has been appointed on tho board to ex
amine applicants for inlnoinspoctoships.
The next tiling in order for the coal
companies will be to filter the water that
comes from tho breakers, so as to pro
duce coal jam. Willi buckwheat, corn,
and jam coal, and the locomotives burn
ing soft coal they are bound to create
a market for coal.— Plain Speaker.
I Subscribe for tho Tkiuuxjc.
