A WORD CONCERNING TELEPHONES
Our bulnefs men, professional men
and citizens generally are pleased to
note that Lincoln is inclined to favor
the granting of a franchise to the
Western Independent Long Distarce
Telephone company, in which several
of our leading business men are inter
ested. The independent system has
been a great thing for this city and
county and would be of still greater
advantage to Lincoln. The Nebraska
Telephone company's rates, previous
to the 'organization of the new com
pany, were $4 for office or store and
$3 for residence; at present they
charge $1.25 for office and fifty cents
for residence. The competition of the
two companies would mean the saving
of thousands of dollars each year to
the citizens of Lincoln and at the same
time furnish a much better service.
While the Nebraska company will
doubtless make every effort possib'e
to keep the independent system out, it
is very evident that it is only a ques
tion of a few weeks or months when it
will have -to submit to the inevitable.
The t people will not continue to pay
two or throe prices for the use of
'phones. At presort t the new company
has about three times as many 'phones
in this city as the old one and the
ratio will soon bo four to one.
The company expects to extend its
line west and would like to run into
Lincoln. That point would be worth
much more to the company than
would Omaha, and, on account of the
amount of business our people have
with the capital citjT, they are par
ticularly anxious to see the independ
ent system put in. May the members
of Lincoln's city coHincil have the cour
age to work for the interest of its
citizens, rather than that of a single
private corporation.
The Hastings Evening News, which
is independent in politic9,comraent3 on
the nomination of C. II. Dietrich as
follows: "There is no doubt that Mr.
Dietrich lends more strength to the
republican ticket than has been mani
fested in that party for many years,
and his prospects of succeeding Gov
ernor Poynter on the 4th day of next
January are better than many suppose
Hastings now becomes the center of
the political cyclone during the com
lug campaign, ana it is indeed an
honor to the city and the western part
of the state that a resident of our city
has won the honor which has been con
ferred upon Mr. Dietrich. The recep
tion which will be given him at Kerr's
opera house tonight will be a man if es
tation of the appreciation which the
people hold for Mr. Dietrich."
A DiSPATCn from Cincinnati states.
among other things, that Senator But
ler of North Carolina, chairman of the
fusion national committee. Senator Al
len of Nebraska and other leaders who
favor fusion the same as in 1S9G, under
the Chicago platform, are more often
sive as fusionists than Chairman Jones
or Chairman Il&nna as opposing pirti
sans. They will stick to their motto
"middle-of-the-road."
M. W. Howard of Alabama, tempo
rary chairman of the anti-fusion pop
ulist convention, now in session in
Cincinnati, said that the chaotic con
ditions which now confront their party
were brought about by office-holders
and office-seeking politicians who were
willing to fuse the light out of the
party in order that they might obtain
petty office with its emoluments.
w. A. I'oynteu was looked upon
two years ago as a very weak candi
date and lacked but little of being de
feated. He has been weak and vacil
lating, and many of his own party- will
not support him next fall. If rc-norai
nated Cass county will remember him
as the gentleman who pardoned the
murderer of Akeson.

AN IMPORTANT MATTElt.
Itevltw of
a Proposition to
School Districts.
Consolidate
Superintendent Smith has kindly
furnished The News the following ex
tracts from a report of the committee
on rural schools:
The decliuing population of many
towns and counties, and even larger
districts, affects the rural schools very
unfavorably.
Hon. C. R. Skinner, state superin
tendent of public instruction of the
state of New York, thus forcibly urges
the need of consolidation of schools in
that state:
"In 1860 the school population of the
outside of the cities was S94.432. At
tho closo of the school year 1895 the
school population of the state, outside
of its cities and villages containing up
wards of 10,000 people, was 009,140, a
decrease of 2S5,2S6, or upwards of 31
per cent, while the number of school
districts in 1SG0 was 11,358. While tho
number of school children has de
creased during that tirao nearly one
third, there has been substantially no
decroaso in the number of school dis
tricts. It needs no argument to show
that the antiquated school district sys
tem, which served ihe people so well
in 1800, has outgrown its usefulness,
and that, if tho state of New York do
sires to keep pace with adjoining
states in the advancement of her edu
cational interests, some new system
must be devised.
"The township system, or somo unit
larger than tho present system, in my
judgment, is the only solution of the
difficulty, and until the state shall
have adopted that system Its rural
schools will continue to decline in effi
ciency.. There is, in my opinion, no
better school in America than the
union free school and village school of
our state, but the results there ob
tained cannot possibly be achieved in
the weak rural districts, whero the
average attendance is less than twenty
pupils, and as shown above, in nearly
throe thousand districts less than ten
The ambitions and rivalries of th
students incentives to greater exer
tion on the part of the pupils which
prevailed thirty-fave years aeo in
those country districts no longer ex
ists. The school is lifeless, cannot be
graded, there is little enthusiasm
among the students, and that activity
and earnestness which come from num
bers are entirely lacking."
The arguments for the reform have
been luminously stated by Mr. A. W
Edson.one of the Massachusetts agent?
as follows:
There is a decided tendency on the
part of the intelligent and progressive
communities to close the small school
in remoto districts and to transport
children to the graded schools of the
villages, where better classification
and better teaching are tho rule. Thi
is done not so much from an economic
standpoint as because of the conviction
that the children receive greater edu
cational advantages there than in the
small ungraded schools.
The number of children in the back
districts is small, and growing le
every year, wun lew children am
small classes there can be but little
enthusiasm nnd progress.
The leading arguments in favor of
the movement are:
1. It permits a better eradii c of the
schools and classification of pupils
Consolidation allows pupils to be
placed where they can work to tho
best advantage; the various subjects of
study to bo wisely selected and cor
related, and more time to be given to
recitation.
2. It affords an opportunity for
thorough work in special branches
such as drawing and music.
3. It opens tho doors for more weeks
of schooling and to schools of a higher
grade.
4. It insures the employment and re
tention of better teachers. Teachers
in small, ungraded schools are usually
of limited education, training or ox
perience.
5. It makes tho work of the special
ist and supervisor far more effective
their plans and efforts can all be con
centrated into something tangible.
6. It adds the stimulating influences
of large classes, with the resulting en
tbusiasm and generous rivalry. The
discipline and training obtained are
invaluable.
7. It affords tho broader companion
ship and culture that comes from asso
ciation.
8. It results in a better attendance of
pupils as proved by tho experience of
towns where the plan has been thor
oughly tried.
9. It leads to better school buildings,
better equipment, a larger supply of
books, charts, maps and apparatus
All these naturally follow a concentra
tion of people, wealth and effort, and
aid in making good schools. The large
expenditure implied in those better ap
pointments is wise economy, for the
cost per pupil is really much less than
the cost in small and widely separated
schools.
10. And, again, it quickens public
interest in the schools. Pride in the
quality of the work done secures a
greater sympathy and better fellow
ship throughout the township.

ADDRESS LINCOLN PEOPLE.
Ikdk Distance Telephone Co. Gives
An
Outline of Its Method.
The State Journal this morning con
tained tho following communications
from the management of the Platts
mouth Telephone company, addressed
to the citizens of Lincoln:
"The Independent. Telephone com
pany has made a request of your mayor
and coudcH to grant It the right to en
ter your city and establish an exchange
both for long distance communication
and for places of business and private
residences. It has been suggested that
two systems in one city makes it in
convenient for the patrons unless they
h ive a phone of each and in reply we
de?ire to say that patrons invariably
get two phones for less than the pre
vious cost of one, and in addition the
subscription list of each company is in
variably increased, as the prices are
reduced so that the patrons have the
advantage of the increased number of
'phones without additional cost. The
rates charged at present by the Ne
braska company in this city are $3 per
month or $2 per month on party cir
cuit in private residences and S4 per
month in places of business within a
certain radius of tho central office, the
charge thereafter increasing with the
radius. This company in its charter
fixes its maximum rate at $1.50 in resi
dences and $2.50 in places of business
p2r month without reference to the
radius. In the city of Plattsmouth the
last advertisement of the Bell Tele
phone company of rates is as follows:
Residence 'phones, per month, 50
cents; business phones, per month,
$1.25.
"At the present time there are about
300 telephones in operation in the city
of Lincoln. The rates are such as tq
prevent thoir common use. By the
proposed reduction in prices there is
no reason why the Independent com
pany should not have a list largely in
excess of tho present one, so that the
people will receive two benefits, one a
reduction of prices and the other an
increase of 'phenes. and business men,
even if they have two 'phones, . could
possibly talk to 2,500 persons for less
than they now talk to about 800. All
the towns in the counties east, south
east and south of Lincoln are reached
upon this line, comprising, among
others,Platt3mouth, Louisville, Dunbar
Weeping Water. Nebraska City. Au
burn, Elmwood, S3Tracuse and every
other town in Nemaha county; Falls
City and every other town in Richard
son county; Pawnee City and every
other town in Pawnee county; Fair
bury and all towns in eastern Kansas,
western Missouri and southwestern
Iowa, south to St. Joseph.
"Immediately upon the completion
of tho line to Lincoln the system would
be extended westward to all tho prin
cipal placos of business as rapidly as
the line could ba constructed. Many
of the patrons of this company who
are rotail dealers in these towns are
urging immediate entrance for the
purpose of reaching its wholesale dis
tnct and in this the business men
would have a direct interest. The
system proposed for Lincoln is a cen
tral energy, full metalic circuit and
long distance instruments, which is
much more rapid and efficient than
the present system now used in Lin
coln. As cine-tenths of the principal
towns and cities in the east are success-
luiiy operating Independent ex
changes, it is apparent that this move
ment is past the experimental stage
and has come to stay, as there are
more than double the number of In
dependent 'phone exchanges in oper
ation in the United States than there
are of the Bell company's, of which
the Nobraska company is one. No aid
or assistance is asked of this town as
a condition of entering. This com
pany hopes to get some of the benefits
to be derived by being in Lincoln and
it expects that everybody in Lincoln
will directly receive the benefits of the
competition and we ask such counsel
and co-operation with your mayor and
council as will give us a speedy en
trance to your city, as our line is now
within a few miles and in process of
actual construction of your city
limits."
