free government, where each man,
woman, and child is an integral and
constituent part of the government,
1T becomes the duty of the State not
only to provide ample means for the
education Of all the children in COM
mon schools, with capable and faith
tul teachers, but to see that the chill
dren attend the schools.
Aristotle says the education of
youth ought to engross the princi-
cipal part of the legislators atten-
tention. If more attention were
given to this sound maxim by our
Legislators = National, State, and
Municipal-it would be better for
the present and future well-being of
our country. There has been too
m UGH Legislation forthe almighty dol
lar-tor material interests-and too
little legislation for the physical,
social, moral, and mental wants of
mankind. 1t is a Chinese maxim,
by learning, the sons of the COM
mon people become public ministers"
Here IN this government of the peo>
pie, and tor the people, the only road
open to preterment and to public
honor should be that of learning and
integrity.-N Y. Tribune.
