PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Having exhausted the round of non.
sense in tinkering with the public schools
: of st. Louis, the Globe- Democrat advises
the board to introduce seven up, pitch
and peiro,' as of more profit than many
of the new attachments. The facts are,
we are trying to play college" too much
with the public schools everywhere
We have too many studies; bstter learn
halfof them well than have smattering
of all.
The above paragraph is clipped from
the Chicago Int@-Oce1n of the 2Sth uIt.
1t will apply qnite as we'll to many of
cur public schools in Kansas as to those
of Chicago and St. Louis. We favor
our common school system as; strongly

fined strictly to its legitimate work.
We do not want to zee the efficiency of
what ought to be first,rate common
school seriously impaired by trying u
convert it into second class acadesny
or thiri-rate college. The proper object
of our public schools is to Offer to all the
children in the community an opportu-
nifty of acquiring thorough knowledge
of the elementary branches of the Eng
lish language. Such course is as far
as the public funds can properly he used
for school purposes. These funds are
principally raised by taxation, and
three, fourths of the pefsDns who pay
these taxes are So situated that they
cannot. even if they wished to do so
ever so much, spare the tiiae or money
to carry heir chill 1ren farther than the
course We have mentioned. If an aca
demical or collegiate education is desired,
it should be paid for by the recipient,
not the public. s..-s.ae-
: In many of our public schools too
much of the time of teachers is taken
up with Latin, Greek, etc, and the in
struction of scholars in the parliamentary
English branches is sadly neglected.
In this way, the public funds are di
verted from their legitimate use, and
the masses of the scholars are defrauded
for the benefit of the privileged few.
In school matters. as in everything else

the true motto should be, "The greatest

REALLY AN ELEGANT THING.

The new Rocky Mountain Tourist,
just from the press, is indeed an artistic
gem. In point Of engraving, printing
and descriptive it is beyond all question
the handsomest publication Of the kind
ever issued in the United States. There
are in this work no less than sixteen OF
Thomas Moran's exquisite drawings, and
among them his famous reproduction OF
the Mount of the Holy Cross. OF Mo-
rams other matchless drawings are those
of Grand, Glen, Marble, Knab and
Boulder Canons, Twin Lakes, Teocalli
Mountain, etc. Joseph Beard 10 repre-
sented by characteristic hunting sketches.

tive mountain sketches, Lsncelot by
spirited drawings of the remarkable rock
sculpture on White River, and Henry

and Wagon Wheel Gap, as we'll a. q
large number Of other very finely exc.
cuted sketches in different parts of the
western country. The engravings are
for the most part large, the full qua to
pages of the Tourist enabling the show
ing to the finest advantage of plates

prises sixty-four pages. exclusive of the
cover. and printed as it is upon super
sized and cslendered paper OF the rich.
est finish, the effect throughout is superb.
While very model of typographical
beauty, the Tourist is none the less prac-
teal in its range of information. time,
distances, railroad and stage fares, hotel
and livery rates being noted with uni
form accuracy and in so easy and pleas
ant a manner as to entirely relieve the
work of everything approaching the
tedious detail of the average guide book.
Containing no advertisements of what.
ever character, the new Rocy Mountain
Tourist is fit companion to Picturesque
America in any gentleman's library.

JOHN LEMoINNE writes for the March
number of The Nineteenth Century, q
view Of the military situation in Europe
from the French standpoint. His con-
clusion is that England must stand alone
in the coming contest He holds tina,
it was Russian influence that enabled
Germany to conquer France. and that
since that date, Russian influence has
been so powerful in continental Europe
because there has been an understanding
between Russia, Austria and Germany.
Tne egregious mistake of England aud
France, he declares, was in imagining
that the triple alliance would be dis
solved He holds that the alliance of
the three continental empires has deeper
foundations than are dreamed of; that it
is, in fact, conservative. monarchical,
dynastic alliance against European
revolution. For this reason. France has
not wasted her protests against incon.
tes.able facts. and because of this she
has nothing to do now but to look on
and wait better times.-Chicago Inter-
