President Hayes on Public Eduea-
 tIOn

From the Presidents annual mes
 sage:
 The wisdom of legislation upon the
 part of Congress in aid ot the States
 for education of the whole people in
 those branches of study which are taught in the common schools of the country is no longer a question. The
 intelligent judgment of the country goes still further regarding it, as also both constitutional and eXpedient for the General Government to extend to technical and higher education such aid as is deemed essential to the gener- al welfare and to our due prominence among the enlightened and cultured nations of the world. The ultimate settlement of all questions of future, whether of administration or finance, or of true nationality of sentiment, de- bends upon the virtue and intelligence of the people. It is vain to hope for the success of a free Government with out the means of lnsuring the intel ligence of those who are the source of power. No less than one-seYenth of the entire voting population of our country are yet unable to read and write. It IS encouraging to observe in connection with the growth Of fraternal feeling in those States in which slavery formerly existed evidences of lncreas- ing interest in universal education, and 1 shall be glad to give my ap- proval to any appropriate measures which may be enacted by Congress for the purpose of supplementing with national aid the local systems of edu- cation in these States, and in all the States; and having already invited your attention to the needs of the Dis uict of Columbia with respect to its public school system, 1 here add that l believe it desirable not so much with reference to the local wants of the Dis trict, but the great and lasting benefit of the entire country, and that this system should be crowned with a uni yerslty to all respects ln keeping with the National Capital, and thereby real ize the cherished hope of Washington on this subject.

ErzerOuIn.

The city of Erzeroum, now held by an army of 25,OO0 Turks under Mukh- tar Pasha, and before which, according to London dispatches of December ,, the Russians now have 2S0 guns in position, is the capital of province of the same name, and is situated on the Kara-su, or the west branch of the Euphrates, in a beautiful plain about G,000 feet above the level of the sea, thirty miles long and twenty miles broad, and about no miles southeast of Tre5izona, its nearest seaport. The population in 1899 was estimated at 130,000 but the large emigration of Armenians that year reduced it to about 4j,000.
 A triple wall of stone which nearly surrounds the old part of the town, and large massive citadel, encom- passed by a double wall and having four stout gates covered with plates Of iron, are its principal defenses. The houses are mostly of wood, mud, or bricks dried in the sun.
 The principal buildings are the Greek and Armenian churches and the GUS tom house, besides there are about forty mosques and numerous caravan saries.
 ErZeroum was built by general of the Emperor TheOdosius II, about A. D. 41j, and named TheOdosipOlIs The name was changed to ErZeroum about the middle of the eleventh century. Erzeroum was twice destroyed by fire and pillage, and in 1899 was taken by the Russians under Paskevitch. Its position, which commands the road from Constantinople, renders it still an important military post, as it was ill the time of the Byzantine masters, and also a point of great commercial interest

TIE PITTSECRG LABOR WAR.
A BFLIEP THAT ITS FIRES STILL SHOULDER AND
WILL BREAK OUT AFKESH.
tPittsLurg Dispatch.O

Ear. William a. Heron returned to the city
yesterday from Washington. He infOrmed d
the President that he did not think the
troubles were over. large number of men
were at work, but dissatisfaction and dscon-
tent could be observed on their counteusnces
and in their subdued but rebellous assertions.
The thing next feared the revolt from
want, and this will COM, if ut all, from the
large class of woikingmen who were not
among the late rioters. Mr. Heron fears the
directors and managers of the railroads and
other great corporations are not meeting the
question in proper manner. They still insist
on men laboring for 80 or % cents u day. Such
rem un Grafton cannot buy food, fuel, ahd abso-
lutely necessary clothing for man and wife,
to say nothing of man with o family. II
can barely keep a single man out of debt.
Then there are the house rents. The cost of
living in PittsburH is greater than it is in
Philadelphia, because, for the size of the
place, there is such q dense population, and
the ounding country does not furnish the
necessary supplies. All the meat comes from
from New York. Pittsburg has always been an
excellent market for the dealer in necessary
supplies of food, and mp to this time the
skilled artisan, the lsborer and the railroad
hat DIS have always received sufficient remune-
ration to enable them to pay their own way.
To all this the President listened with the
greatest attention and interest. He said that
he thought that the greatest troubles were
over that no more outrages and outbreaks
would occur, and that in short time all
would be well again. Indeed, be expressed
q very healthful view of the situation, bat
in the meantime declared to MI. Heron that
he proposed to do all that was in the power of
the Executive to do to avert any ser01s
calamity to the people the country. He
thought that in the near future labor anu cap
cies of the times and prosperity again reIgn
j n our midst.

SOUTHERN CROP PROSPECTS.

A reporter of the Democrat who has been in
the subject of cur crops, gives the following
the result of conversation with Mr.. w. C.
Black, President of the Cotton Exchange:
Mr.. Black was enthusiastic over the pros
poets for the coming cotton season. He had
been up the Arkansas river nearly TO Fort
Smith, and had viewed tho country he kad
passed through with the eye of coupoisseur
Eeporter-Wist 90 yo1 think we'l4 have in
tie ~ay Of cotton, q fuIi or only fair yield this
year?
M. BIsok-Wly, sir, (his face Frightening g
up) why, Dir, Providence has sml led uPcn cur
whole Southern country. Our fields green
With grain and cotton, and everywhere the
earth seelrs to /" aid III retrieving
what We have .u-t. The crops look really
heau,iFnl, ard the yield must be large. In
krkaI ses the faTueTs have already gathered
their wheat, v hlch IL a eOrt of iutermedia
crop, AND have realized their little pocket
money, and able now to have something
in their purge. When the cotton is picked
that will be their gain.
They have solo their wheat we'll and are
now independent, and the picking and ginning
of their cotton will absorb their time. The
health of the country is excellent. As to Mis-
sissippi, some portions have suffered from
drouth, but the crops are good. very good
railroad noticed all along the line, (and you
know they always run roads through the poor
est lands) splendid crops.
Up in Arkansas noticed one singular thing
and that was that the stalks were large and
full of blooms, and yet did not bloom
on the ground.
In some of the bottom lands there was some
complaint about too much rain, but it was
only there. No worms were heard of, and if the
picking season is good the yield will be large.
