H. S. KAMSEY, ClTn Editorial Committee. THE ROCK itLUFFS SCHOOL. The report of the Rock Bluffa School for the year ending June SOtn, is, to say the least, highly encouraging. Two departments were organized at the be ginning of the last school year, and a point of gradation established, which, owing to a' very large number of schol ars in the Primary Department, was Subsequently changed. Those who can pas3 a satisfactory examination in Reading in the Fourth Reader and m Division in Arithmetic are admitted to the Higher Department. The lack of an Intermediate Depart raent causes considerable embarrass ment In the classification in both de partments. From the report made to the State Superintendent we copy a few- statis tics, which we trust may not be, alto gether uninteresting to the readers of the Educational department of the Herald. The whole number enrolled during the year in the Primary Department was 54 males and 47 females. The whole number enrolled in the Higher Department was 87 males and 35 fe males, making a total of 101 scholars in the Primary Department and 72 scholars in the Higher, or a grand total of 173 enrolled during the year, in both departments. The number studying the different branches was as follows: Spelling, 1G2; reading, 149; writing, 61; arithmetic, 82; grammar, 41; geography, 44; his tory, 12; algebra, 12. The number of enumerated children in the district by the last census was, males 04; females 86; or a total of 180. The number enrolled was, 91 ; males, "and 83 females. The average daily at tendance was, males, 83.78; females, 40.01 ; or a total of 73.79 ; and the ayer "age number of days each enrolled pupil "attended school during the year was -124.2, or a little over six months out of the nine. The number of square feet of black board surface in the room of the Pri mary department is 132, and in the room of the nigher Department, 102, making a total of 234 square feet. The Principal received 8.60 per month, and one assistant 840 per month. Th.e total number of days taught by all the teachers was 360, and the total wages paid were 900. Aa an auxiliary to the school there w as a class in In strumental music composed of mem bers of the school, and under the charge of Mrs. Bernard Drost, who gave lesson.3 twice each week. In addition we would add that the Fall tenn commenced on the 8th of September, with the same teachers, and already over eighty scholars have teen enrolled.'' ' The Music department 13 still in the charge of Mr2. Drost, and the new school year begins with flat tering prospects of continued and re newed success. CHEAP TEACHING. The question is very frequently hiked here by the patrons of day schools, "Why have we not more teach ers who are proficient in the business? Our reply has been invariably: You do not pay wages that will justify teach ers of any ability in remaining with you. It is generally the case that men are elected to . the offices of directors or trustees of our schools who think they are doing the greatest amount of good, discharging their duties most fully, when they employ the man who will leach for the least money. They seem to look, not so much to the ability or attainments of the person a3 to the saving of a few dollars per month in wages; consequently our scheols are very greatly injured by inefficient teach ers. Those who have no just concep tions of the "duties and responsibilities bt the school-room, are, very frequent ly chosen as school o'Ulcers. ' In speaking of the ignorance of 6chJol directors as to what the attain ments of a teacher should be4 brings to mind the expression of school officers of ah adjoining State. They talk a Kicat deal about teachers holding good ''stificates." Ws presume that if it were necessary for them to write the word they would begin it with an "s." So long a3 we elect men of such in ferior attainments to look after the in terests of our schools; men who are concerned more about the saving of inoney than they are about the train ing of the immortal minds of their thildren,- so long will the object for which the common school.? are carried on be, to a great extent, defeated. It bos generally been our experience, hat a "cheap coat is a very dear one in the end." "When these who are authorized to examine teachers and grant certificates shall become more rigid in their exam inations; when we shall elect our offi cers from the most intelligent portion Of bur people thoso who will look well to the best interests of our schools, and when our teachers are paid a fair and living compensation for their la bors, then and not till then will our schools prove successful. It is an indisputable fact that the - grade of scholarship to entitle a teach er to hold a certificate, should be much higher than it is at the present time. If applicants for schools i lie Y? est are as numerous as they are here, you Can Well afford to reject two out of fevery three, thus be rikely to get good teachers. In eur township, 'where the wages aid to experienced teachers, have nev 6r been mora than $33 per month, th9 Girectors were generous (?) Snougb, to Attempt to reduce them to $30 per ZJctith. In speaking of this to an old ?Y$tf vh? . f w"2- tr&n'vtHHrr tri? remunerative field of labor, he suggest ed that the best thing that could be done would bo to hang such a Board, and while we cannot fully acquiesce in that; we would advise yoU as your school system is probably yet in infancy that, should you have men of like prin ciples in your State, it would be wel for you to reiterate a late Statesman's words: Go farther "West. The fact that our common schools are the basis for the future weal of our country must not be overlooked and ignored. 'Foe, Fa. , "W. B. S. Whatever the views of our corres pondent may bo relative to the selec tion of school officers, we are inclined to believe, that it is not so much the incapacity or scnool boards as it is a lack of energy. Many school officers within our own knowledge, of inferior attainments are really more energetic in the cause of Education generally and locally, than many whom we have seen who were persons of superior at tainments. But in order to perform the duties pertaining to school officers, we agree that at least some business qualications are necessary, but one great qualification, superior in our judgment to every other is a constant and burning zeal in the cause of Edu cation. Without thi3 qualification, School officers, of whatever attainments, will be to a great extent incompetent to dis charge the duties pertaining to the re spective offices. "We feci justified in saying that all school boards are war ranted in choosing those teachers who possess the best certificates, yet, the mere fact of holding a "good certifi cate" is no conclusive evidence that the holder thereof is a first classs teacher. Indeed, we have ovserved that teachers holding an inferipr grade of certificate, succeed quite as often as many who hold "first grade." The teacher who depends alone upon his scholarship for hi3 success In teaching will be very often disappoint ed ; other tilings are quite as necessary as this. What will become of iii Of the Northern Pacific Railroad we mean. Jay Cook & Co., are its nominal owners. Only 8200,000 worth of stock has been taken, and they control that. Some six hundred mile3 of road have been built, and they have reported that bonds representing from twenty-five to. thirty millions have been sold. These bonds have built the road. But where is the money to build the remaining 1,200 miles to come from? And what is to pay the interest on the bonds el- ready sold ? It will require at the very least forty millions more to finish this road. There are no cities along its line to vote subsidies in 'tid of its construc tion. The 600 miles already built can not pay running expenses, and will hardly yield a dividend until the mil lennium. The road runs, most of the way; through an unbroken wilderness; and much of the territory on either side is ban-en and inhospitable to the last degree. There is danger that the set tlers, who have been lured there by the rose-colored descriptions of fertile soil and picturesque scenery and untold mineral fleposits and a climate of un surpassed salubrity, will perish from cold and starvation before the Winter is cut. What is to Income of this road, of which we have read so many splendid descriptions, and whose bonds were represented a3 more valuable than those of the Government until farmers and traders and widows and the trus tees of orphaned children invested their small savings in them in preference to itffer but less vaunted securities near er home ? Jay Cooke & Co. have prac tically failed, leaving two-thirds of the road unbuilt. The 600 miles already completed at an immense cost cannot possibly pay the interest on the twenty -five millions in bonds already placed eoicewhere and procably everywhere. It is a question whether this stretch of road would not bankrupt any company that should undertake to operate it for the next twenty-five years. The im mense tract of public land a region larger than Indiana and Illinois which Congress voted away for the building of this road, is practically unavailable because it i3 not wanted for settlement and prohably will not have a market value for half a century. Certainly the bondholders, who have already been bled to the fainting point and have nothing but worthless parchment to show for their investments of hard earned money, are not likely to come forward and treble their subscriptions; the money. they have already paid out is practically sunk. Merssrs. Cooke & Co. cannot finish the road, if they try, without a further sale of bonds, which noliotly will be foolish enough to buy. There would seem to be only one of two courses left either the abandonment of the whole enterprise or its assump tion by Government, But will the Government dare to assume such a burden? In the present state of pub lic feeling, with the recollection of the Central Pacific frauds and Credit Mobilier scandals fresh in the' public mind,, will Concrete- be likely to venture into such a speculative scheme? nardly. It would require unusual courage even to advocate the measure on the floor of the House. What remains, then but the abandon ment of the whole enterprise ? True, it would be a monument of our folly. It would be pointed to as a national disgrace. But we have had so many national disgraces that we . have got pretty well used to them; and if the sinking of twenty-five millions in a wild attempt to build a railroad through barennes3 and desolation from nowhere to nowhere; for the accom modation of a population that does not exist, will have the salutary effect of curing our people of -that species of folly and making all similar schemes forever impossible, we are not sure but it will be a wise permanent invest ment.
