THE LIMIT OF THE TEACHERS
AUTHORITY.

The New York courts recently re.
affirmed the right of the teacher %
administer ''reasonable corporal pun
ishments for intractions Of discip-
line The case was intended as a
test Of the teachers authority, ard
the decision %reinforces q right which
is some times challenged. The status
of the teacher in this regard was fixed
by Blackstone as ''in loco parentes,"
and is as old as English law. 1t
clothes the teacher with full parental
power in the exercise of his profess
sional duties, axacting only that pun
ishments, of whatever kind, shall be
REASONABLE" Unler our State
school law every public school teach
er, Lii assumiug the care of a school,
contracts to enforce order and dill
gence among his pUpila. If in his
judgment this can be attained only
by the use OF the rod, the State ait
thorizes its use, and IN every instance
except those Of undue severity or
brutality, protects hini in the uso OF
it. Now and then IA teacher is draL-
ged into court and fined for whipping
somebody's child, but it will be found
in such cases that the teacher has
transgressed the limit Of "reasonable-
ness and is guilty Of brutality. Not
until the millennium ono IL, We
suppose, will the rod 70 out. We
would that it could be banishcd a,
once and forever, and that the teacher
could be more n pedagOgue and les:
a policeman. AS long as there is {
law.ess element in om land and til
children of the lawless and law-abid
ing alike pass under the DOM lion o
our public schools, so long must tn
rod be retained. The tendency IS 4
its disuse, and the longer one teachy.
the less use he makes of it. But j
can never be safely abolished. Their,
is a species of brute violence and H.
subordination that breaks out at time
in the best disciplined schools, whicl

with their splendidly equipped an'
disciplined schools, believing that
degree of excellence had been attain
ed that could dispense with the rod

tPro years there was an overwhelmiD;

HIGHER EDUCATION AND THE
STATE.

ssIt is sometimes claimed that taxa
ton OF the whole for the higher edu-
cation of the few is unjust. But the
claim, If admitted, strikes a blow at
every species of advancement. The
right to tax for education Of any kind
is not a natural right, but q right
which IS founded on the broad basis
of public utility and necessity. And
rights of this nature are among the
most sacred and the most respected.
1t il they alone which give to the
Safe the power to provide for those
varied conditions Of national growth
and preservation which lie beyond
the domain OF individual and corpo-
rate action. 1t is they alone which
give us postal facilities on the from
tiers, construct our harbors, erect our
lighthouses, and conduct our nation
al surveys. 1t is they alone which
enable the State to lay its hand on
the shoulder OF the citizen aud force
him into the army for the preserva-
ton of the commonwealth The
country has been developed and pre-
served through the perpetual exercise
OF the Sc rights,-of right which en-
body the theory that "the State may
do what the State needs to have done
and that for this purpose it may mus
ter whatever men and means are re-
CURED" On any other theory the
resources ofno country can ever be
developed. Suppose the government
had said to commerce: HarbOrs and
lighthouses chiefly concern shipown-
ers and merchants, and only directly
interest the masses of the people; il
is maniiestly unjust to tax the whole
for the benefit of the few. You must
therefore make what improve
ments you desire by voluntary asso-
citation and contribution. Nobody
can fail to see that the result would
have been lighters instead Of harbOrs.
andlanterns in the place ofligilt hous-
es. And if this idea prevails lanterns
where we ought TO have lighthouses
is just what our system wo0ld give
Us in education. The doctrine acted
upon as a basis of political and legis-
latiye guidance leads directly and
inevitably to barj,arism. No nation
ever did act upon it, and 1t carries
with it such manifest and hopeless
impotence that whatever theoretic
speculations may be rife, it is safe to
say that no nation even will.

q brother journalist puts it: We sup
pose that many people think that
newspaper men SIRE persistent duns
let a farmer place himself in Il similar
position and see if he would not do
so. Suppose be raised one thousand
bushels OF wheat, and his neighbor
should come and buy a bushel, and
the price was a matter oftwo dollars
kor less, and the neighbor says: II
will hand you the amount in a few
days" AS the farmer did not want
to be small about the matter, he says
all right, and the man leaves with the
wheat. One by one they come until
all his wheat is gone. The above
