THE Milwaukee Sunday Telegraph
professedly occupies neutrel ground,
in politics, but its editor is by in
stinct and training Democratic
sympathizer this is what he says,
however, of the Confederate Con-
gress:
Congress has adjourned, and the Democrats
can look back on six years of undisputed con
troll in the House. and on two years control in
both houses, without being able TO point to
one act passed, or seriously attempted, for the
benefit of the country, or that has marked a
step in progress towards attaining The conf
dence of the voting public. Not one abuse
has been corrected not one cxtrayagent saiS
~ has been reduced not one useless Office
has been abolished not one reform has been
accomplished. All this time has been occu-
pied IN useless political wrauglcs, in small in
trigues 10 secure factious advantage, to gain
points" for use in future elections. and in the
little conspracies of individuals to secure
prolongation of their terms of Office, and to
make petty boards of capital for private use.
The summing up is that the Democratic
Congress is a total and ignomal failure. The
demagogues and small politicians have had
their way and not one tally mark stands to
their credit or that of their party.
As It is, the Democrats made no reco.d to go

The events Of General Garfield s
remarkable life have been many
times told, but his " circumstances"
in respect to worldly possessions,
which have now become legitimate
subjects of public curiosity, are not
so wen known. General Garfield

his salary as u Congressman, have

him know him longest and best, ey-
en- from childhood, have the utmost
confidence in him as to his honor
and integrity. This being mixed up
in the Credit Mobiler affair resulted
largely from a careless way pf doing
business. He had been solicited by
Cakes Ames and others to take
81, 900 in Credit Mobilier stock, and
had not consented. One day he
borrowed 1929 from Ames, who sug-
gested that if he would take that
stock he might consider the money
a dividend on the stock. Ames
seemed to have considered himself
authorized to so treat it. Garfield
says he was not SO authorized, and
that he paid back Che money. There
might readily be misunderstanding
of this kind, while it was not only
wholly inconsistent with General
Garfeld's character. that he would
sacrifice his reputation and perjure
himself for the pitiful sum of 1929.
And it is also Inconsistent with most
of The important facts, developed in
the case, which | can't now under
take to explain
"What do you know about the
De Golyer pavement charge p
ats Of the same kind-totally I'M
Just. | can't see that there was any
thing wrong in that transaction at
all. He simply as an attorney, took
case or claim to present from an
other attorney. He never saw nor
communicated with any of the De
Golyer company. General Garfield
furnished brief presenting the good
points of the particular pavement,
made q few minutes explanation
and left. A valuable contract was
given to tho company. They paid
their attorney, Parsons, $4,000, as
they had agreed to Go, and he gave
half of it to General Garfield, who
had done part of the work. 1t was
all right"
"Wbat was the point made against
him =
"There were two. First, he had
received $1,000 for very small ser
vice. As to that, any attorneys
fees are regulated as mnch by the
value Of his services to lis client as
by the amount OF them. Indeed, |
suspect that, generally, those who
get the largest cases and tie largest
fees do the least work. The second
point made is, that the funds to run
the CITY, of Washington on are drawn
from the United States Treasury, aud
as General GaI field was then the
chairman of the committee on APP
preparations he became the attor
ney OF a company asking o contract
over the granting of which he him
self had large control because OF
his position. 1t is said he would be
likely to favor a large appropriation
for n contract for his own clients,
and that that fact was an induce
meut for the board Of public works
to give his clients the contract, and
that altogether he had sure and
soft thing of it, And all this seems
like good reasoning until this fact
is known, that the government pays
for no pavoments in the city OF
Washington only such as are laid

A recent writer criticises British education
as represented and exemplitied in the pre-.
scribcd courses of Oxford and Cambridge and
the Edinburgh and Glasgow institutions of
learning. These colleges and universities al
most completely ignore European languages,
and seem to take It tor granted that the stu
dents must he naturally as well acquainted
with German and French and others, AS they
are with their native English. There are no
profcssorshlps or lecturers of modern Ian
guagcs and llteratures, and yet students are
expected to gain knowledge in certain de
partmcnts that can only be acquired through
the medirm Of French and German works in
the original. The system is therefore defect
i've in not supplying within itself the means
of its own development The British schools,
conducted rs they are, too, permit the student
to slip through college even with the honor
degrees in a toerab'y happy state OF lgno-
rance. The critic regards the system and
curriculum of Harvard as much superior TO
the British universities in that they prescribe
courses and provide professorships in modern
languages. which receive a steadily increasing
share of academcal attention.
