THE COMMON SCHOOLS AND
INSd NIFTY

We have long contended that the
common school system as at present
conducted has been fruitful in laying
the foundations Of mental diseases
which, subsequen tly, has sent the poor
victim to an insane asylum. Any in
telligent person who visits a primary
school, and notes the crowded condi-
ton and witnesses the infants, some of
them scarcely out of their swaddling
clothes, coming over their lesson With
wcaried look of discomfort and fretinl-
ness, but must conclude that it is a
hot-bed system, the tendency of which
is TO overtax and overload the brain.
The heads of the school department
don't seem to notice il, they are so in
love with the system. Theirs is Pro
crustean idea; they have arranged
the.bed and the child must be schooled
TO fit it, no matter how torturing the
operation. Hence there is little hope
of reform in that quarter. But we
have often wondered why medical
men who know that the heaviest per
centage Of Juvenile patients come 10
their hands with diseases engendered
in the school room, don't demonstrate
against the system, conducted as il is
And as the school department and the
medical men in the various localitie.
have neglected this imperative duty,
| il has at last fallen on the superintend
cnts of our Insane Asylums to sound
the note of warning. DR. Curwen,
Principal of the State Lunatic Asylum,
Harrisburg, read paper on mental
disease before the State Medical Soci-
ETY., held last week in Pottsville, in
which he charged the present school
system. by demanding much study and
taking little care of moral education
with greatly aiding in producing men
;al disease And we are pleased tC
learn that this view was endorsed by
the society, and the paper "rcicrrcd tc
the committee on publication with th,
request that the part in relation &c
public education be sent TO the Super
intendent of Public Instruction for pub
lication by him" This being NOV,
in the right direction we hope that i
will be followed up by measures thai
will relieve the Common Schools of tn,
| Commonwealth Of the odium of being
the nurseries and feeders OF the insan,
asylums of the State.-DdnpWe Intel

SocK.-The Kitchen organ of the
President tells us why he and his Cab

of publishing the expenses of Grant

says the organ, Massachusetts is un
happy because the President and his
Cabinet decline an invitation TO attend
the centennial of the battle of Bunker
Hill, and again become advertised
charity-boarders at the expense o.
Boston hospitality. We pity the taste
OF the descendants of the Pilgrim Fa

"a Double HEADER."--As gamb-
lers would say. The ring which has
robbed the taxpayers of the national
Capitol so hugely since Grants advent
to power, is fully illustrated in the
fact that the Administration organ at
Washington, the National Republican
publishes the delinquent tax list which
covers 42O columns of that paper, at q
cost of 100000 to the taxpayers. II
is said the profit on this job is about
$4,000, so that it seems to pay nicely

THE lNcKEAN COUNTY GRAB.
The Harrisburg Patriot says the
Superintendent of Public Instruction
has addressed communication to the
school directors of Mexican county
asking them to take action looking to
the reduction Of the salary of super
intendont of schools in that county
He also intimates, in case the school
directors shall fail to recommend re-
duction OF the salary, now fixed at
$4,000 per annum, that justice to 9th
er counties will, he fears, compel him
to take the whole sum out of the State
appropriation for Mexican county,now
about $4,000 thus leaving to oe dis
tributed among the school districts
about $500.
Now, if the State Superintendent
can se-saw in that way, we hope he
will just add the 5000 taken off oul
supcrintendent's salary,to the common
school fund of Clearfeld county. That
would be nice. However, that might
impair his decision in which he says
that tho amount paid county superin
tendents does not come Off the schools
or, in other words, does not decreas,
the State appropriation to the schools
We hold that the legislature should iis
the salary of these officers and there
by defeat both the depletion and gral
games which are played every thrc'
years all over the State. We intent
to show up this grab business at lengtl
at some future time. The department
should be ashamed Of tho presen
"shenanegan' style of regulating su
perintendents' salaries.
