The effort now being made In Omaha to have the Board of Education of that city adopt a civil service method for the employ ment of teachers In the puullc schools bas cflled attention to the necessity for some such plans here. In the opinion of a greit many people who reside In South Omaha there Is altogether too much politics In the Board of Education. It has been openly charged Urns and again that positions as teache's ? nd Janitors are obtained through political Influ - fultnful and competent ence. No matter ho-v petent teachers are they must go llmiugh the same process of electioneering every year and to a great many this Is distasteful. Applicants for positions call on members of the board at Uielr places of business , as well as at their homes and friends of the applicants do the same , eo that for a week or two before an election of teachers mem bers get very little reel. By some It Is deemed humiliating for a teacher to have to call on a member at his place of business and make a plea for support , but It Is done right along. No doubt the members of the board would be willing to agree upon some arrangement w Hereby elections could bo held without BO much lobby Ing. ( .Quito a number of the teachers have ESrJed hero for several years , and would bo ulfglblo on a. list made up of those who vvouldjiot be expected to renew applications every year. Messrs. Wyman and Lott , the Cwo republican members of the board , stated yesterday that the Idea of es tablishing a sort of civil service list Is a good one and as for themselves they would like to see euch a plan tried. All kinds of political deals are now made to secure po- jltlons under the board and especially Is this true with Janitors. Applications for teachers' positions brings forth friends and relatives Into the flght and the consequence is that all kinds of promises are made and broken. Tbo breaking of the ante-election promises causes hard feelings which often takes con siderable tlmo to overcome. No reflection Is cast upon tlio present Board of Education. for It has but carried out the usual custom. By going over the list of teachers carefully It la thought that enough could bo found to place upon a civil service platform to mate rially * reduce the number of applications for positions. In this way the members would bo spared a great deal of worry and the teachers and their frleuds would bo much better satisfied. It le barely possible that this matter maybe bo brought up at some future meeting of the board. Arniour'M Aimlv er nry.
