" Mr, Lewls nominated dMr, Robert Clark, ¢ ‘.3 vote was taken with the unvarying result— Mr. Lowis moved that Mr. Wentworth be elected Principal of the Cook Normal School for flw ensuiug year, Mr. Clark seconded the mo- on, MK, PLANT ralsed the point of order that, as no permanent Chairman had beeu clected, tho Buard could not proceed to elect o Principal, Morcover, o did not consider the Doard orgavized untl) a Chalrman hod been, appointed, If. he Hoard could not decide on thls, what was the use of speudiug time on a divided balloti The members might as well ga home and setths sl diflicultic Until & new Chalnnan was elected, he malotained that Mr. Kearnoy should hold that position. 7 Mr, Lowis sald the Board was dolag’all it fi“x“ 10 orgunizo within 20 days, us was required Y law. ore.

Mr. Joliuson moved to teconslder the vote. ‘The inotion wus scconded. Mr. Clark wanted to know why tho voto was to be reconstdered. Alr. Johnson sald ho saw no use for such nn office as Temporary Chairman, 1f the vote liad not been takeny Mr, Kearney would have held over until his successor was appoluted. The office of Temporary Chalrnan was' thereforo suporfiuous, By reconsidering the vote, Mr, Kearney would “be permanent” Chalrman antil hiis successor was appolnted. . Themotion to reconslder was carried, WENTWORTH, Mr. Lowls rencwed his inqtion to elect Mr. Wentworth, When the name of Mr. Lowis was called, that gentleman felt it Incumbent on hira to mako the usual explauation of his vote fn favor of Mr, Wentworth, As Mr. Lowis made his stereotyped AeeeCh, his valuable remarks arg not reproduced. Mr, Gardner also gave his reason for vntlns no, Ife never supposed the Normal School ha been bullt for any ono mai—Mr. Wentworth, or Dr. Willard, or anyhody elso. The school should be opened with a proper man, Mr. Went- worth was 1ot tha proper man, and yot the other side virtually sald, *Wentworth or no. body,” To them belonged the responsibllity of closing the school. In rc;{nrd to the iudorse- ment of Messrs. Lewls and 1Harms by the Coun- ty Board, Mr, Gardner safd he did not think it much of an Indorsement aiter all, when the Commissiontr who mado tho motion to re-olect Lewis and Ifarms had siated that the cost of graduating 17 puplla last year was 817,000, and ho believed thers should be no appropriation for the ensuing yenr. If thnt waathe kind of an_indorsement “the other side got, they were welcome to it. Mr. Kearnsy sald that ncither Jndge Law- rence nor Washington Hesing were pled ";imd a8 to the way they would vote fn the Board, pro- vided they had been elected. He made thia statement because Mr. Lowls had hinted at their being pledged to vote against Mr. Wontwortlh, The vote resulted as” ususl,—four.to four,— ;vlllv.h no changes ju the composition of the two ides. Some discusslon aroso on the question of em- loying a cheaper man than Mr, Muirhead Fo Jook after the Normal Behool and keep it in repair during the Interrcgnum. Mr, Clark represented that Mr, Muirhead’s presenco was nlualuul{ needed there to look after the boflers and the heating apparatus generally. The Board finally allowed the matter to rest where 1t was. ADIOURNMENT, Mr. Gardner moved to adjourn unifl the first Monday fn October. Mr, Clark amended the matlon by moving to meot. Baturday, Mr. Plant™ thought these meetings were uscless, If a compromise was to be made, ¢ would be mado outside the Board, To adjourn till October wonld glve the members timo to discuss the matter in the Interest of harmony, Morcover, there was to be an exataination of teachers fn .the Board- room 8aturday, and no other business could go on at that time, Mr, Gardner did not want to go through the farce of votlng down Wentworth every week. Finally the Board scttled on meeting Friday afternoon at 2 o'clocle. + It then adjourncd.

After along discussion the original motlon prevailed, On motion of Mr. Snydacker {t was decided to advertise In the Sunday papers the price of coal for cash only, as fixed by tho Exchange.

Mr. Anthony once told the writer that under *no con- elderation would he submit to the reduc- tlon evem of one cent in the amount of lis ° salary, City-Attorney Tuthill haa gald the same thing. The Conusel can re- duce Mr. Anthony’s salary, but Mr. Tathlll’s is fixed by law, and cannot be chapged. Shonld these two gentlemen refuse to submit to a do- crease in compensation, the burden musy neves- sarlly fsll upon the cmployes of tho Depart- nent, aml thelr proportion of reduction would be about GO per cent, which, of courac, they would not put up with, nor could any onc be found to accept any of the positions for tho amount of pay. The Council is much eritieised for ts actlon, which is regarded as belng made without suBlicient thought, Ald., Thowmnpson, who was ano of the J)rlmu movers to havo tho lawyers' salarica reduced, sald yestorday that E;“ [} ll;vycr In the city received enough pay for 5 wark. : THE COUNTY BUILDING.
