A Mule that rcan Couut.

From the Salt Lake Herald
There Is a mule driven on one Of the
First South street cars apparently a
little more sensible than others. 1t is
generally or the morning shift and has
to make Eve round trips before the team
is changed. Every day as soon as the
mule comes on the fifth return trip from
the upper end Of the line it begins to
Whitney q blsck beore 1t reaches Second
East street, and II the change team does
not happen to be waiting and the driver
has to run the bank corner and return
before changing, it win stretch out its
neck and whinny again, louder than
before, about the same distance ere 1t
reaches the place. How that mule
keeps track Of the fifth trip is more than
Gum has found out.

ty. The law makes many provisions for
the regulation of the duties of township
school officers, and for the improvement
of our whole common school system.
The bill meets our hearty approval.
Future legislation will remedy any de-
fects not now apparent, but hereafter
discovered in its practical workings, and
there is no doubt some such plan will
lead to greater thoroughness and eficien-
cy. The additional expense to the tax
payers, scarcely amounting tofrom seven
to sixteen cents tor each child of school
age, is SO slight when compared with
the advantages that would result from
uniformity and method in arranging the
courses of instructions, and the putting
in practice the most improved systems of
instruction that it ought scarcely to be
thought Of in this connection.
1t is true, as has been urged that per-
sonal visitation by Superintendent can
not be very frequent but by reason of
printed instructions and rules and teach
ing at institutes and conventions he can
90 make his influence felt as to make
radical Improvement in our ungraded
schools. Teaching has come to be pro-
fession of equal importance with medi-
cine, law or theology, and new systems
and methods are being introduced re-
quiring constant study and advancement
In its professors, and making it as i'm
practicable for school directors or even
former school-teachers, resident in the
districts who might be willing to exercise
superintendency gratuitously, to be
made useful, as for the pettifogger to
manage q suit in the Supreme Court.
Whatever may be the objections on first
view it becomes US to study it carefully
and perhaps to give it fair trial, when
it can be abolished if it does not give
satisfactory results. We are informed
that many other states have similar su-
perintendency and that in the main it is
found to work advantageously.
The manner provided for the election
of superintendents takes the matter er-
tirely out of politics and permitsthe Presi-
idents to select the best man regardless
of political faith or place of residence.
We are confident that the apparent OBJ
jections to this plan will vanish with q
better understanding of its provisions snd
an experience of its practical workings.

Congressman Monroe does not regard
the bill asking for an appropriation to
repair the William and Mary College, in
the light of war claim. He had voted
for the appropriation of 5000 to build
. monument over Jefferson's grave. and
was quite as willing to do something to
keep a venerable old college in preserve
ton. The fact that this was an educa-
tional monument increased his interest
in 1t and from thst point of view he wa
in favor of it, and voted for 1t.
We should have no objection to help
ing colleges on general principles if the
same courtesy could be extended to all
schools in like needy circumstances, but
if we are to make general thing of it,
Uncle Sam win have to adopt some means
to increase his revenue, or tie number of
applications would soon bankrupt him.
We think Mr.. Monroe made q mistake
There is only one ground on which it
would be reasonable to pay for the dam
age done to that college, and that is the
ground mentioned in the bill, that 1t was
destroyed by U. 8. soldiers wantonly and
without orders. If our memory serves
us the matter has been along time before
Congress, has been carefully looked in
to, and the claim found to be without any
foundation in justice. If William and
Mary college is needy and there is any
reason of national importance why the
government should aid her, similar or
equal to that for erecting monument to
Thos. Jefferson, then by all means let Us
help her, but when she comes putting it
in the nature of q war claim then we beg
to be excused, and We are glad to note
that enough Northern Democrats were
found to aid the Republicans in defeat
ing such scheme for repairing their
losses in the Rebellion.
We think the gentleman's own
admission shows that he had given too
little attention to the bill to fully under
stand its merits and that otherwise he
could not have voted ss he did.
