To education more than to any other
agency We are to look, as the resources
for the Advancement of the people, in
the requisite knowledge and apprecia
ton of their rights and responsibilities as
citizens, and desire to repeat the sug
gestion contained in my former message
in behalf of the enactment of appropri
ate measures by Congress for the pur
pose of supplementing, with national
aid, the local systems OF education in the
several States.
Adequate accommodations for the
great library, which is overgrowing the
capacity of the rooms now occupied at
the Capitol, should be provided without
further delay. This invaluable collec
ton Of books, manuscripts, and illustra-
tive art, has grown to such proportions,
in connection with the copywright sys-
tenn of the county, as to demand the
prompt and careful attention of Congress
to save it from injury in its present
crowded and insufficient quarters. As
this library is national in Its character,
and must, from the nature Of the case,
increase even more rapidly In the future
than in the past, it cannot be doubted
that the people will sanction any wise
expenditure to preserve it and to enlarge
its usefulness.
The appeal of the Regents of the
Smithsonian Institution for the means
to organize, exhibit and make available
for the public benefit the articles now
stored away belonging to the National
Museum l heartily recommend to your
favorable consideration.
The attention of Congress is again in
vlted to the condition of the riverfront
OF the city of Washington. It is mat
ter OF vital importance to the health Of
the residents of the National Capital,
both temporary and permanent, that
the low lands in front of the city, now
subject to tidal overflow, should be re-
claimed. In their present condition,
these flats obstruct the drainage of the

1t has been the policy of the depart

Secretary of the Treasury recommend
that the law be so modified that small

through :he post offices or other agent
of the Government the freest opportu

year after their issue into the four pei

Such provision of law, supported by
suitable regulations, would enable any
person readily, without cost or risk. to
convert his money into an interest
bearing security of the United States.

applied to the redemption of six per

The question, whether a change 10
the control of the Indian service
should be made, was, at the last ses-
sion of Congress, referred to a commit
tee for inquiry and report. Without
desiring to anticipate that report, /
venture to express the hope that in the
decision of SO important a question,
the views expressed above may not be
lost sight Of and that the decision,
whatever it may be, will arrest further
agitation of this subject, such agita-
ton being apt to produce disturb

on the Indians themselves.

SPEAK LITTLE OR SPEAK TRUTH. NV
Learn to briddle the tongue. Speak
gently Of the absent. Only towards
will assail a man behind his back. The
singing arrow with its venom does its
work after we are out Of hearing. Per-
sons may be bad but it makes it worse
to repeat their faults. If you are, for
self protection obliged to speak Of
them, do it in a manner that will not
offend. Ifyou have nothing good to
say of a man, for heavens sake say
nothing bad. Do not credit evil re-
ports, they are the offspring ofmalice.
A glance, shrug, a wink or nod
may be harbingers of evil, so loaded
with poison that its effects will over
come the work Of life time. It is
easier to do good than undo evil. Life
is too short to indulge in idle gossip
which bodies no good. Each one of
