Origin of Our School System.

From the Times.
Judge Ranney, in his Akron speech, said in
regard to the school system under our present
Constitution: 81 can not fail to remember Just
how l and other members of the Democratic
persuasion looked upon this whole subject"
But Judge, the people are anxious to see If
you remember how you Votsd on the subject
when you were a member of the convention.
Have you 'failed to remember" that2 If so,
turn to page I'll, volume q of the Convention
Reports, and you will find that you, Judge RAM
ney, Voted against it.

voting no, as you did.
You will find that the system would have
been defeated if the Wings had not voted yes.
When you made your Akron speech you
knew exactly that you had Uoted against the sys-
tenn. Why did you attempt to pettifog the mat
ter and bewilder the people by uttering glitter
ing generalities to make them believe that you
had voted for it? You had not the hardihood
to tell them you voted for it.
Again we say, look at volume 2, page I'll, of
the Journal and Debates of the Constitutional
Convention of 1861. Ranney-Nol

know; and that the solid vote of the Catholics
should be the reward of its passage. GeghdR Il

Now I repeat that 1 believe that those Catholic
Trustees sincere and sincerely desired the bene-
fit of the public schools for themselves, and for all
Catholic children Nor do doubt that at the present
time it would be subject Of unfeigned joy to the
Catholic laity generally if the clerical injunction
against the common schools were removed.
Nor 1 quite sure that portion of the priest
hood themselves might not feel relief by such change
But their allegiance to Papal authority has been such
hitherto to prevent this natural and desirable
result
THE ROOT OF THE DIFFICUIDE WAS IN ROME.
The unsatisfactory result of the negotiation with
Archbishop Purcell, by the committee appointed at

SOMETHING NEW IN MATRIM0NY

On the % of November, Leo Miller and
Matte Strickland, Of Chicago entered into
business partnership with universal mutual
contract to share evenly in all future gains
and earnings. To this agreement they joined
a contract of matrimony, based on mutual
affection, and calling on God and his angels
to witness their sincerity and good faith,
although no other witnesses were present, not
even minister of religion or an officer OF the
law. Lao and Matte, with great presence OF
mind and commendable forecast, mutually
promise to foster, cherish, rear, support and
educated the blessed fruits Of this union. "
They conclude their contract with solemn
apology to the public in these words:
This simple form of conjngal union we are
constrained to adopt from the deepe con-
scientious convictions of right and duty; and
we sincerely regret that condition OF society
which, if we would be true to ourselves,
makes it necessary for us to oppose the
opinions of a aority OF our fellow creatures,
disregarding the laws and customs which they
assume to make for the control Of an affection
between the sexes, which we believe IS, and
of divine right out to be, free.

AN ACTIVE INTEREST NECESSARY

We are pleased to notice that as the time
for the election of delegates to the January
Convention draws near there seems to be a
growing sense of the real importance of the
matter manifest on the part of our citizens,
and especially among those who generally
take but little part in politics, whether local
or national.
This augurs we'll for the successful issue OF
the important deliberations which must take
place during the session Of the convention,
for whom men who have an utter distaste for
political matters discover that unless they
take an active part great injury must be the
result, they accomplish generally much good
not only by their real participation in the
local campaign, hut by the mere fact OF their
being present at the meetings and lending
countenance to the movements advanced to
strengthen and support the men and meas
ures best calculated to insure good govern
ment and stable reform.
The apt French expression of "c'est lie pre-
miere pas que coute" lit is the first step that
counts, is particularly applicable to the ap-
preaching campaign; if a false step is made
by the people in selecting their delegates to
the convention, it will cost them dearly ere
the battle of 1876 is decided. Let every step
be made with great care and only after thor
ough delberation and earnest thought, see
that tie men who are sent to the January
convention are chosen from among
those whose interest in the result is
closely allied to the greatest interests OF the
entire State, men who can not be influenced
by any argument or inducement that has not
for its foundation and result the benefit OF
our State, and the first step taken will be a
firm and successful one, which will undoubt-
edly be the initial movement in grand trium-
phal march to reform and prosperity.
In order to manifest the necessary interest
in the matter, our business men, professional
men and mechanics must make it special
point to be present at every meeting neiu IN
their ward, take an active part IN the delloe-
rations there held, see that they are char
acterized by reason and sagacity; and
when primary elections are held, see that
good men are chosen as candidates, and then
let every nan use all his energies to secure
their election. The approaching convention
will lay the foundation for the Democratic
embattlement of 1876, and it must be
so firm that whatever shocks be
brought to bear it will stand firm and I'M
shaken, it must be garrisoned by able and
honest men, who will hold it as sacred as
peoples honor and as bravely as stalwart
heroes.
Every citizen must take an active interest to
secure victory rich in grand and glorious
fruits.

A Movement Among the Gas Filters.

There was considerable stir among gas filters
Tuesday, arising out of the report that the
New Orleans Gas Company was about to petit
ton the Council, asking that gas filters should
be required to furnish bonds in the sum OF
$500 before they would be allowed to repair
gas pipes in any buildings. The filters felt
indignant that they should be thus suspected
with tampering with the pipes.
1t appears that several complaints have
reached the gas office of leaks and badly joined
pipes, and the company have taken this action
for their own protection. Nevertheless the
gas filters feel that it is somewhat encroach-
ing upon their rights as mechanics to call
upon them to furnish bonds when other
trades do not. The question has created some
stir in the circles named, and it is probable
the matter will reach climax soon.

THE CONSERVATIVE CAUCUS.

There was meeting last night at the State
House of large number of the Conservative

The meeting was held with closed doors,
and the closed door that gave admittance to

alarms, so anxious were the Conservative
members of the Legislature to keep their pro-
ceedings secret.
Hon. B. C. Elliot presided and Mr.. Booth
and Speaker Estilette talked. Several other

there was seemed to be principally between
the gentlemen named.

SALARIES CT THE CHIEF AND ASSOCIATE JUS
r1cEs OF THE SUPREME CoURT.-In another
column will be found sn interesting commu-
nication over the signature of Representa-
five" pointing cut an inconsistency between
an article of the Constitution of the State and
a subsequent act of the General Assembly, in
which the salaries of the Chief and Associate
Justices are fixed. The constitutional saa-
ries are respectively $500 and $1,000. but the
STATUTORY salaries are $4,000 and $4,000.
Unless there are explanatory facts, not appa-
rent on the face of the record, this matter
is a serious reflection upon the court, upon
the Legislature of 1871 and upon the Audi
tors and Treasurers who have warranted and
paid according to the unconstitutional act.
The salaries as fixed by the Constitution
are ne-third more than they ought to be IN
an impoverished State like ours; but II the
Chief and Associate Justices have been re-
ceiving each $500 per annum more than the
Constitution allows, they ought to be called
upon to refund. The subject we'll merits the
serious attention Of the General Assembly.

the Church of the Immaculate Conception to
Madame Comes, will take place this evening,
at Grunewald Hall. Madame c. is generally
regarded as one of the most accomplished am

L. M'.', and Messrs. G. Collignon, Casslrd,
Caulier, Meteye, Aug. Davis, Ed. Durive and

crowded on this occasion. Madame Comes
richly deserves substantial benefit
