If the conductor is asked why he permits them
on the car, he will sometimes reply that he has
enough to do to collect his fares, and will add
in on undertone that they might ''lay for him.
If he 'squealed-" This tells the whole story
of terrorism exercised by these providers. They
are well known to the car conductors, and par
ticularly well known to the police; but no
effort is made in any direction to check the
outrageous system.
Notwithstanding the case of Mclean, Wa
have left out of consideration the possible col
fusion of the conductors with the thieves. Al
class they number many respectable men
among them. The case we refer to never

would furnish material for inquiry and
observation. But two alternatives re-
MAIN either passengers snust go armed and
defend their property, as they would on the
Plains, with the bullet, or the detective force
must arrest these gangs and have them sent to
the Pepitentiary as confirmed vagabonds.
From the present aspect Of affairs It would
require regular force to be applied to
this service alone, and it should be
attended to at any cost, for a man
loses no claim that we know of on the
State for protection by riding in street car
We do not wish to encourage the general
carrying Of deadly weapons by the citizen,
but if the law gives him no shelter against the
armed thief he must, in very self-defence, go
armed also. 1t looks too much like back

UNDECIDED. 1t is mistaken idea that the city
saves anything by being cheaply policed. The
thief and the outlaw are the first to discover
it, and the honest man only finds it out when
he is robbed and MANNED society gradually
perceives it if the man is killed We have en-
tered into these details of this system of rob-
berry that people may be put on their guard
correction of the abuse will lie in the hands Of
the authorities With force making this
their specially the disgraceful blot would be
soon remedied, for one determined officer is
more than enough for any gang Of thieves, if
the officer only knows his men.

THE Political CRISIS IN SPAIN. On another
page this morning we print an interesting let
ter from the HER.LDs correspondent in Ma
drid. 1t reviews the political situation as it
exists to-day in that facton-torn country
Beginning with the coming of the young
Savoyard on the invitation of Prim, we have
a clear and concise review Of the changes
which have taken place since Amadeus as
cended the Spanish throne. Between incapa-
bile and faithless ministers, conspiring parties,
disseminated factions, jealous demagogues and
ambitious aspirants for place and power the
young monarch has need of all the character
istic GOODNESS, decision and resolution with
which he is accredited. Without one man OF
power in the whole kingdom upon whom he
can safely and fearlessly rely, his efforts to
govern according to the constitution he swore
to obey have sadly failed. The prospects of
The future are no more hopeful, and King
Amadeus energy and intentions may go for
nought when weighed in scales against the
vaccinations of the parties who are driving
Spain to her destruction

nation.
Captain General Valmaseda has resigned,
and his resignation has been accepted by the
King of Spain. For the present the Office Of
Captain General will be filed by General
Ceballos; but our special correspondent, whose
despatch appeared in the HERALD yesterday,
gives us to understand that the post is to be
kept open for General Cordoba, the present
Chief of the War Department in Spain. 1t
cannot but be pleasing to all who take any in
terest in the affairs of Cuba to know that the
inhuman rule of Valmaseda is ended. 1t
would seem as if Zorrilla were determined to
pacify the colonies, and, if possible, secure
their continued allegiance to the Spanish
throne, for simultaneously with the announce
ment of the acceptance by the Crown of the
resignation of Valmaseda we learn that the
Captain General of Porto Rico has been
recalled and that General Latorre an
advanced liberal, has been named
in his place. 1t is also stated
that the government intends to introduce
important measures for the relief of the
Spanish Bank in Havana, and that the notes

legal tender for the payment of government
dues. All this is very well. We cannot blame
Spain for doing her best to pacify the colonies
and to retain possession of them if she can.
We are afraid, however, that these reform
measures come too late. 1t does not seem
possible that Cuba can ever be reconciled to
the continued domination of Spain Cuba
wants independence not mere change of
Spanish rulers. The Cubans are sick of
Spanish misrule, and it will not be at all
wonderful if, in the multiplying domestic
miseries of Spain, the Cubans should find
themselves strong enough to shake off the
hated yoke. We know no good reason why q
people who cannot govern themselves should
be allowed to hold in bondage the inhabitants
of the finest island in this Western World.

man when he is unprofessional. In other
words, it is a costly sheen which absorbed
years in It's requirement and did little more
than furnish distaste for the hard work which
he had to undergo to At him for the actu-
aliies of life.
For the youth Of broad, rich young land
like ours, with its resources on every side in
viting Drawn and brain to develop them, this
plan is eminently unsuitable. We want, In q
few words, directness in education. Cultivate
as highly as you can in the particular practi-
Gal branch for which the American student
exhibits aptitude; leave out the ornamental
altogether where it can only serve as fretful
distractor. All this, of course, we would have
grounded on plain, sound education. Here.
however, is the rock wherein your old
fashioned dons are shipwrecked. They will
sickle for this and for that as necessary parts
of plain education, until between them they
present as crotohety piece of construction as
the coat of Joseph Dolly Warden polonaise
or the Committee of Seventy's charter. With
the exception of those destined for the Church,
the bar and the medical profession it is mostly
waste ground, which may become a dim field
for reflection and faint classical allusion in
after life. In the last two professions men
toned this education, as in England. while
furnishing good foothold for future study,
often leads to foolish estimate of the
students ability and neglect Of the new
media for his Success in the line he has
chosen. This, of course, arises more from
the morale Of college life than from the
education itself. To the votaries of classical
education we have only one word-that where
it is undertaken it should be done thoroughly
and with practical object. The professions
to which classics are essentials are we'll marked,
and unless the youth places one or other of
these in his future a handsaw would be of
more service than Herodotus.
In delivering these remarks upon the work
ings of our higher educational institutions we
do not wish to undervalue the great good they
are achieving Centres Of learning are grow
ing in Importance and wealth among u.s. The
flower of our youth pass years within their
walls which will be looked back to in such
seasons as the present with pleasure and graft

OF the best and greatest men of the republic
and the alumni meetings of the principal ones
gather together increasing numbers of brilliant
successful and talented men. This is much to
be proud of, but we are anxious for more. The
mediocrities do not count in these gatherings;
the failures are only whispered among class
mates. The safe mediocrities we cannot help,
but the failures can be marvellously lessened
by timely reform. This lies in an Ameri-
canization of the system-something that di-
reefs the brain and the. energies directly to
solid lifework, which should begin practically
within the walls, and not be left to take shape
fortuitously afterwards. To return to our
pyrotechnic smile, we should have fewer
broken rocket sticks, if even we had less fire.

held joint possession of the Island of San
Juan, lying between vancouver's Island and
the Continent The question is stated thus in
the Treaty of Washington: Whereas it was
stipulated by article one of the treaty con-
cluded at Washington the 18th of june
1896 between the United States and Her
Britannia Majesty, that the line of boundary
between the territory Of the United States
and those of Her Britannia Majesty, from the
point of the forty-ninth parallel of north lati-
tude, up to which it had already been ascer-
tanned, should be continued westward along
the said parallel of north latitude to the middle
of the channel which separates the Continent
from Vancouver's Island, and thence southerly
along the middle of said channel, and of
Fuca Strait TO the Pacific Ocean =
and whereas the commissioners ap-
pointed by the two high contracting
parties to determine that portion of the
boundary which runs southerly through the
middle of the channel aforesaid were unable to
agree upon the same and whereas the gov
eminent of Her Britannia Majesty claims that
such boundary line should, under the terms of
the treaty above recited, be run through the
Rosario Straits, and the government of the
United States claims that it should be run
through the Canal de Haro, it is agreed that
the respective claims of the government of Her
Britannia Majesty and of the United States
shall be submitted to the arbitration and
award of His Majesty the Emperor Of Ger

toned article Of the said treaty, shall decide
thereupon finally and without appeal which of
those claims is most in accordance with the
true Interpretation of the treaty Of June 15

that the award of the Emperor of Germany
shall be considered as absolutely final and con-
elusive, and full effect shall be given to the
award, without any objection, evasion or delay
whatsoever The rest of the articles on this
matter prescribe the mode of proceeding in
furnishing evidence and so forth, and conclude
by stating that the arbitrator shall be requested

A SpecImen IndIana DlrOrce Case.

A woman in Indianapolis was in poor
health, and fearing that in case she should
die, her husband would obtain control of
certain property which she possessed, she
visited her sister in Louisville, KY, in or
der to carry out a scheme which she
had projected to preventit. While staying
with her sister she crossed the river to New
Albany, where she rented a house for three
months, and on this transaction based
residence there. She then instituted a suit
for divorce, after which she returned to her
husband in indianapolis. About year
ago she received telegraphic despatch re-
questing her immediate presence in Lou
isville In consequence Of illness in her sis
ter's family, and showing this to her hus-
band he readily consented to a second visit
to that city. At this time she again went
over to New Albany, where she received
her decree Of divorce, which she quietly
put in her pocket and carried home. 1t is
possible that the husband would have never
known what had taken place, at least dur
ing her lifetime, had he not excited her ire
by insisting one day too much on his own
way as the head of the family upon which
she very curtly told him that he need not
try to tyrannize over her, MS she was not his
wife, at the same time producing the doc
uments to prove her assertion. The hus-
band was more than astonished but he
insists upon it that such divorce as that
will never stand in which opinion he is
probably about right

Miners Strike in Michigan.

A dispatch from Detroit dated the 10th
inst, says Governor Baldwin has received
dispatch from the judge and prosecuting
attorney, of Houghton county confirming
the accounts of the formidable nature of
the strike and the powerlessness of the civil
authorities, and requesting further assis-
tance. Another detachment of fifty troops
left here to-day by way of Chicago for the
scene of disturbance. A despatch from
Houghton states that the strike is general
at Calument, Accla, Schoolcraft, Quincy,
Franklin and Pembrick mines. Two thou
sand men have been engaged. The ring
leaders at the Calumet and Hecla mines,
were arrested, but were rescued by the mob
from six deputy sheriifs. No one has been
arrested as yet. The strike has been going
on twelve days.
