PRESIDENT GRANT On THE
SCHOOL QUESTION.

The most significant, startling anG
timely speech that has been delivered
lately by anybody anywhere is herewith
quoted from:
DEsMoINEs. September 29th.-At the
Reunion to-day, President Grant said be
had concluded to disappoint those who
had called him In expectation of getting
short speech, as he had jotted down
many things which he wished to say.
He then expressed qualification in re-
calling the days when they had suffered
together to preserve q Government which
they believed worth fighting and even
dying for. I'VE will not" he said,
deny to any of those who fought
against the United States any privilege
under the Government which We claim
for ourselves; on the contrary We well
come all such who come forward in good
faith to help build up the waste places
and perpetuate our institutions against
common enemies, as brothers in full in
terest with us in a common heritage.
To guard against q recurrence of past
days. We must begin by guarding against
every enemy preventing the prosperity
of our free republican institutions. 1
do not bring into this assemblage poll
tics, but it is fair subject for the SOL
diers in their deliberation to consider
what may be necessary to secure the
prize for which they battled." The
President urged cultivation of intelli-
gence among the people in regard to po-
litical matters, and said: IF we are to
have another contest in the near future
of
dividing line will not be Mason and Dix
on's. but between patriotism and intelli-
gence on the one side, and superstition,
ambition and ignorance on the other.
In this centennial year the work of
the foundation of the
structure began by our forefathers one
hundred years ago, at Lexington, should
be begun. Let US all labor for more Sc
curity of free thought, free speech, a
Tree press, and pure morals, unfettered
religious sentiments, and equal rights
md privileges of all men, irrespective of
nationality, color, or religion. En-
courage free schools. and resolve that
Tot one dollar appropriated to them shall |
,e applied to the support of any secta-
ian school. Resolve that neither State
Tor nation shall support institutions
ave those where every child in the land
nay get common school education,
inmixed with atheist, pagan or sectarian
eachings- Leave the matter of religion
o the family. and keep Church and
state forever separate. With these safe
yards, believe the battles which Great
ID the Army of Tennessee will not have
'een fought in vsin.''
Taking into consideration the habitual
Hence Of President Grant and his lack
t sympathy with anything of q sensa-
lonal sort this is speech which is very
all of meaning. 1t prepares MS to ex-
ect . recommendation in the next Mes
age Of his E1cellency of an amendment
the Federal Constitution looking to
ae protection of our school system from

this speech will be to place the President
at the head of the very strong movement
ton of our public school system from
the attacks of the Romish Church. We
do not know Of any public utterance Of
these times which comes so opportunely
and with so much force as this Unex-
pected speech of our "silen. President.

Baby GREEN.-The varyville cor
respondent of the SILVER STATE wrote
last week that Badly" Green had
been appointed Justice of the Peace for
Bartlett Creek Township. The news
OF Baldy's appointment to Office has
spread like wildfre through the State,
but onr exchanges for some reason
have substituted Naivesville for
Varyville. and it does not follow that
because of his appointment such a sig-
nificant pronunciation should be given
Varyville. az the miners of that village
are at letst as honest as the average
Congressman, though that is not saying
much for their reputation.

From the Train and Escapes.
Sheriff Fife, of Lincoln county,
passed here last evening on his way to
Carson with two convicts. who had
been sentenced to the State Prison at
the last term Of the District Court in
Phoebe. Que was the notorious
patsey Marley No. Q, who was SEN
fenced for seven wears and six months,
and the other. whose name we did not
learn, was sentenced to eighteen
months in the State Prison. Both
we're convicted of stage robbery. and
were heavily ironed Last night a
short distance west of Oreaua, Marley
entered into conversation with the
Sheriff, whom be asked if he
would kick much if he escaped. As
Marley was heavily ironed the Sheriff
paid no attention to the remark, except
TO laugh at the idea Of his escaping.
Shortly afterwards Pasey went out on
the platform of the car. and, though
the train was going at full speed,
jumped off somewhere between Oreana
and Lovelocks. The Sheriff noticing
his prolonged stay on the platform
went to look for him. aud found him
missing. The train was beld over for
an hour and search m tde Tor him. but
without success. This is the second
time Patsey has escaped from the
officers. When captured after his
frst escape he told the officers they
would never get him to Carson, but
they considered that vain boast.
The Sheriff hoped that he would sue
coed in finding him to-day. but ut
latest accounts had not succeeded in
doing so.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 90.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 70.
Following are the conclusions of
Hoar, Frye and Wheeler, of the Con-
gressional Louisiana Investigating Com
mittee, rs embodied in the report which
they have agreed upon. LIST. That the
so-called white mans party in Louisi-
ana has had the purpose to take pos
session by fraud aud violence of the
State Government. I'd. That in execu.
ton of this purpose they have not re-
Trained from murder, fraud, civil war
nor coercion of employees. Sd. That
the moderate men of the party are IN
able to control the majority. 4th.
That three causes have induced the for
nation of this party, and rendered it
more difficult to unite the best men
among them in opposition to the fact
that the administration party in the
State ia made of almost the whole
Negro vote, with few whites, largely
from other States. In fact there has
been great maladmiuistraticn by Re-
publican officials, and the belief is
honestly entertained by large numbers
of the white people of the State that
they have been Twice dcfranded of the
results of elections in which they were
successful. 9Th. Admitting that these
evils are likely to exasperate any peo-
pie, yet simple and peaceful measures
by the whites would have proved sue
cessfnl long ago. 9th. The committee
believe Kellogg received q majority in
1879, and while violence and fraud
were practised ia 1874, yet the action
of Judge Durrell and the Returning
Board in attempting TO cure one wrong
by another naturally inflamed popular
discomfort. 7th. The committee be-
lieve there has been much dishonesty
and corruption in the State and local
governments. for which the Repub-
licans are largely responsible. 9Th.
The effect of this has been to destroy
the authority of law over large por-
ton of the State. and deprive the Negro
of the right of suffrage. 9th. A new
election at this time is not desirable.
10th. Congress should use its consti-
tutional powers in the matter. The COM
mittee think Kellogg is the choice OF a
majority of the voters, aud should be
recognized as Governor.

The splendid weather attracted a
great crowd to witness the proceedings
in the great scandal trial. drs. Moul-
ton resumed the witness stand and
WAS cross examination by Evarts. Wit
ness said she did not remember whether
she ever made fourth visit to Mrs.
Woodruff. Always went there in a
carriage, and went to her house in con-
nection with evidence in this case.
Regarding the interview with Mrs. Til.
ton in which the latter confessed TO
adultery with Beecher, witness said she
did not remember having told anybody
about it except Mr.. Moulton.

CHICKENS STOLEN Some time ago a
raid Was made on J. II. Jobs chicken
roost. and a dozen or more of his
choicest chickens were stolen. Night
before last another raid was made, and
the seventeen chickens which escaped
the first time were every one stolen.
Chicken thieves appear to have no
fears of the consequences of stealing
chickens from the Clerk of the Court of
the Fourth Judicial District. They
have no respect for the officers of the
law. and would probably, if they had
opportunity. steal chickens from the
Sheriff aud Judge as quietly as they
did from the Clerk.

PRESIDENT GRANT, says the Courier
journal, seems to have an itch for put
ting his fingers in State affairs when
there is no necessity for it. Last
Spring he recognized Baxter. and the
Attorney General, in the only opinion
he ever gave with any law in it,
reached the same conclusion. Now
this work is to be reversed and another
State government set up. Like
children with their card houses, the
President seems to set up for the sake
of pulling down again, and to phil
down for the sake Of setting up again.
He knows Congress will not have time
to act on the question before adjourn
ment, and be wants to prepare the
country for another invasion of legis-
lative body and for another one of those
outrages which already cover his
Administration like leper's spots.
Arkansas is not safe for the third
term, and the State must be again
fred" This game is growing
monotonous. 1t begins to look
ominous and dangerous; and it is time
for the American people to commence
regarding it in its most serious aspect.
CHARLES Francis ADAMS is lecturing
on railroads and related subjects, to
Bostonians. In his last lecture, " Rail-
road Accidents" he expressed the be-
lief that railroad superintendent
should be hung for employing incom-
petent men, which. in such. risky
business, is probably true doctrine.
AS to the chances of being mashed np
or crippled, Mr.. Adams stated. that il
person was born on a car and would
travel nine miles minute. the chances
were that he would not be killed until
he was seventy years old, and that he
would travel 20, 600, 900 miles before ha
would receive any injury. This is
qnite encouraging. but few people
would like to bet on it.
