Editorial Comments. - Education
does not make good men bad or
bad men good. 1t is like an ar
INQUIRER forging swords and distributing
them among the people; some may use
them like heroes others employ them
for murder. Education increases the
powers of good man for good. and Of
a bad man for evil
The fault does not lie with educatlon;
the corruption Of our politics is largely
due to our system of civil service, which
furnishes every demagogue with reti-
nue. of ottice-seekers ready to do any
thing and everything for success; and
to our system Of class-,cgislation, which
furnishes politicians with the means to
corrupt and demoralize the people,
| The moral nature Of man needs de-
! velopment and education as well as the
intellectual part. Religion has con-
sisted of two portions. the moral disci-
4 plinc and training, and the theological
doctrines and dogmas. The latter, it
must be admitted, are losing their hold
| upon mankind, and hence the moral
training is neglected., hence intelli.
gence and corruption are taking posses
sion Of the world.
| No people have ever reached state
| of high civilization without having gone
through many generations of mora
training, during which the passion:
have been subordinated and the mo, a
qualities developed; and this is tru'
whether the God worshipped was Brah
ma, Osiris, Baal. Jove. Allah, or Jcho

Education.
KAssoK, Aug. 50, 1874.
To the Editor Of the Anti Monopolist
It is asserted by some that Educa-
ton has tendency to crush out all the
natural honesty there is in human ma
turc, and it seems that there must be
some truth in the assertion. For IN
stance, the editors of newspapers are
among the best educated, the ablest
and wittiest in the country; yet where
you find one independent newspaper
editor that dares to utter his honest
sentiments upon politics OF religion,
YOU will find hundred that are owned
by party or an individual. and bought
and sold to support this interest or
that, regardless Of the consequences to
the public, while they themselves &C.
cupv a position Of almost abject slavery
to those who own them. Then look at
our last two Congresses, composed OF
the best educated and most intellectual
men in the nation. It would be a bless.
/ inc if the record Of those Congresses
could be sunk in oblivion. Then see
the late developments in another direc'
ton, involving two Of the greatest ora
tors in the nation-men whom nature
and education had made intellectual
! giants. Then look at Mrs. Woodruff
"a woman highly educated, very able
but preaching ideas destructive of al
morality and virtue. And so | nigh
go on.
| Does education produce these effect
upon the human mind, or is it some
4 thing elsea Will some one explain!
