THE BURIAL OF SOLDIER OF THE UNION.
Frank Young, who was drowned some weeks
since in the Carson, was member of one of
the Maine regiments during the war of the
rebellion. His brother, who went to Alpine
for the remains, is expected to arrive here
to-day, we believe, with the body and as
will be seen by notice elsewhere appearing,
the funeral will be attended by the Union
soldiers and sailors of this Post. We under
stand that the Free Masons, of which order
the deceased was a member, will conduct the
funeral services
SETTLE WITH BosKo!-Those who owe
Bosko must settle! There is no foolishness
about this. See what that busy clothier has
to say. He seems to read the riot act
Nobody has any right to owe him and not pay
the debt. How can he sell clothes at such
low prices as he does if these delinquents do
not square up? Pay, oh debtors, pay, and
then wear your garments, bought on tick
from Bosko, with "a clear conscience.

ARE OUR SCHOOLS A FAILURE?

A correspondent of the Commonwealth
again introduces the school question"
to the public attention by the pertinent
question, "Are our schools failure p
He emphatically answers "NO" and at
tempts, in q labored argument to prove
them success. While we have not the
slightest interest in this local contro-
versy, yet the question above quoted
inAolves principles which deserves more
than q passing notice.
That we have msny teachers and su-
periutendents who are keenly alive to
the practical needs of their pupils, and
who strive and succeed in making
their school.rooms intellectual work
shops, all must admit. But that the
majority of the public schools are not of
this character, such extracts as the fol-
lowing from the public press abundantly
prove.
At the last examination at West Point
candidates were required to be "well
versed in arithmetic, reading and writ
ing, including photography, and have a
knowledge Of the elements of English
grammar, of descriptive geography,
especially of their own country, and of
the history of the United States" At
| ti.v vAs.r..fns.s;-ss, Last cor, of o hundrod
and more picked men, of from fourteen
to twenty one years of age, chosen from
all parts of the country, and not few
of them by competitive examination in
the public schools, only One-half were
found to have that thorough grounding
in the elements of an English education
which our schools profess to give. No
doubt many of these rejected candidates
could have answered difficult questions
in algebra, geometry or Latin, but these
questions were not put to them, conse-
quently they failed. So, many in the
test of practical life, who may have
spent years in the school room in the
acquisition of abstract science only to
forget it. find when too late that they
fail, and are obliged to begin their edu-
cation over again. Let teachers and
school directors ponder upon this fact.
We clip the following from leading
Illinois paper
at is fact that the rudiments of an
education are shamefully neglected in
most schools. The three RS are ig-
nored, and too much attention paid to
algebra, elocution, mental arithmetic,
and ornamental branches. One views
with alarm the precocity of some of the
little ones, and yet they are very often
unable to solve q simple problem, such
as might be used in purchasing a supply
of groceries, but can rattle off with ease
ANYTHING in the mental arithmetic. -

FARMERS PAPERS i.

There is a great difference between
the Farmers papers of to-day, and TWEEN.
ty-five years ago. Then, science and
shook farming were decried as tending
only to expensesin trying false theories
and, indeed, SO it did, so poor was the
so>called science of that time. But now
the sciences pertaining to agriculture
have become SO systematized, and of such
immediate and practical benefit in their
application, rhat intelligent farmers eve
rywhere are intensely eager to learn the
teachings of science; they have become
convinced that true science is knowl-
edge, scientific is knowing; just that
nothing less or more" The 6rst agricul-
tural paper to appreciate this want in its
breadth was the Scientific Farmer, Of
Boston, Mass, which as its name implies
is devoted to this branch of literature,
and which the editors announce to be
published Gin the interests of profitable
agriculture, "-certainly kind of agri-
culture needing development. Judging
from its record thus far, it fully lives up
to its intentions; and has recently dom
ned handsome cover, and begun to
illustrate the text.

Botany, and Horticulture, Dairy and
Stock, Veterinary, chronological, The
Field, Conference Corner, and Miscella-

which is to increase the farm profits, and

MUNICIPAL INDEBTEDNESS.

At meeting of tho "Social Science
Congress" held at Boston on this month,
Mr.. Robert P. Porter, of Chicago, read
q paper on municipal Indebtedness,
which contains many facts of special in
In order to ascertain the growth Of
this kind of indebtedness in the last few
years, Mr.. Porter addressed letters to
the authorities of $50 of the principal
cities of the United States propounding
ing questions concerning the indebted
ness, rate of taxation, and valuation oil
property. in those cities now and in the
year 1868, and from the returns received
from 100 of these cities, he finds that
their total Indebtedness for 1876, was
$S44, 1878, 663; taxable property, $6,175,-
OS2, 1853; annual taxation, $1l2,711, 275.
In 1868 the account 6tood as follows
Amount of Indebtedness, 1921, 49,, 0O9
taxable property, 50, 45l .619, Ssl ; annual
taxation, 64,060,O9S. This table shows
An annual increase of this kind of in
debtedness of over 81, 900, 900 per year,
and the ratio of increase of debt is much
larger than that of property or popula-
ton. In other words, these cities instead
of gradually reducing their indebted
ness each year, are constantly getting in
debt deeper and deeper. Judging from
the best information he can obtain, Mr..
Porter estimates the entire State,
county, township and city indebtedness
of the country, to be over one thousand
millions of dollars, and thinks that the
amount is steadily increasing.
As remedy for this state of affairs,
Mr.. Porter proposes either "the absolute
disfranchisement of the non-taxpaying
population, or the election of a second
body of men by the heavy taxpayers oil
a city to represent the property inter
ests, and curtail the reckless disburse.
ment of the public funds"
One statement in Mr.. Porter's paper
will be read with good deal of surprise,
and that is the assertion that in this
matter of municipal indebtedness, the
West is far better off than the East
Our debt is not only less per capita, but il
also bears a smaller per centage to our
valuation of property than that of the
East.

RABBITS seem to be more plentiful in
Kansas than people generally believe.
In Bourbon county the County Clerk
received $500 scalps in a single week,
and the county has paid for the killing
of 10000 since the law went into opera
ton. The expense has been $4,000, and
the County Commissioners lately re-
scinded the order. In Anderson county
500 dollars has also been paid out for
same purpose.
