THE Democratic State Convention
endorsed the platform Of the Nation
al Convention. Not a word about
the ''Ohio Idee;'' not the most faint
manifestation of grief over the de-
funet rag baby but the National
hard-money platform was swallowed
down without murmur. Thus the
leaders of the party in Ohio place
themselves on record before the vot-
ers, in the light of liars and dema-
gogues.

We understand that the assessment OF real
and personal property in the South Division
Is substantially completed, and that the books
will shortly be exposed for the examination
Of the. taxpayers. There Is every reason
to belive that Mr.. Drake and his assistants
have spared no effort to make thorough and
impartial assessment on the agreed basis, and
the general result, after the books shall have
been finally closed, will probably be as salts
factory as it is possible for any estimate for
taxation to be. This is peculiarly fortunate,
for the reason that this years assessment on
real estate will hold good for four years,
under the new law, with the exception Of
such improvements as shall be added during
TINT term. This consideration should also
induce property owners to inspect their own
assessments, in order that any errors may ba
corrected.

breeding, and so strong and penetrating that
people have to close their windows even in
such hot days as we are now having. It has
already. been reported in the papers that the
Health Officer has inspected the fever-ho1e,
and that at his suggestion the Illinois Central
Company has promised I'd make outlets
through its breakwater so that the horrible
stuff can be dispersed. Promises, however,
are cheap methods Of disposing of health
officers. Nothing has been done, and tue
pressing necessity is Tor immediate actlon-
The promptest and most practical plan
would be for the Health Officer to order the
breakwater opened and send the bill to the
Railroad Company. Otherwise, and if some
thing is not done quickly, the indignant and
suffering people will take the matter into
their own hands, and not only disperse the
vile stuff but bring the responsible parties
before the Grand Jury. They are in no mood
for further delay.

Some weeks ago We discussed briefly q
proposition made to the City Council to ILL
crease the rate of saloon licenses to $500.
Since then another petition has been pre-
sentcd III which it is asked that the rates of
license be graded, and that they be fixeH at
$500 year for the sale Of beer and $500
year for the sale Of spirits.
The only practical difference between these
two measures is that the one recognizes
the Justice Of grading the rates of
licenses and the other does not. In
considering measure Of this kind, when
the law is invoked as the arbitrator, 1t
should be borne in mind that all legislation
to be effective must be practical. Can law
prohibiting the sale Of liquor be enforced in
Chicago? Such alaw cannot be enforced in
this or any other city where public opinion
is opposed to it, Such law would be a dead
letter in Chicago, and for the reason that the
mass Of the people would be opposed to it
and would sanction a general disregard
OF it. No Council that would pass
such law, nor any Government that
would attempt to enforce it could
hope to live beyond the first election there
after. An ordinance fixing the rate Of L.
cense at 500 and $500 year would be
substantially an ordinance prohibiting the

THE Board Of Education formulated tho
general dissatisfaction OF the people of CHI
cago, and practically passed Judgment there
on, BY removing Mr.. Doty, the Superintend-
ent Of Public Schools. The unQuestioned
decline in the efficiency Of the schools dur.
ing late years, and the seeming inability Of
the Superintendent to correct the evil, OF
even to suggest OF apply remedy, was,
without going into detail, the cause OF Nj.
Doty's failure to retain public confidence.
The large vote against his reelection shows
how impressed were the members of tha
Board with his ineftlciency or with his fail
ure. The election of Mr. Rowland, the Prin-
cipal of the Central High-School, to succeed
Mr.. Doty was tribute to long and faithful
service. For more than twenty years Mt.
Rowland has been at the head Of the High
School, and, with great modesty and unob-
he has won the confidence Of
the whole community, including teachers aud
the Board of Education.

4 MOVEMENT which promises to receive
the support Of majority Of the Board of Edit
cation has been set On foot looking towards the
abolition Of the Central High School. and the
establishment Of one High School with branches
in each Of the three divisions Of the city,
the proposed High School to have three
years classical or preparatory college course,
and four years general course. It Is
not intimated whether the Sub-Principals Of
the branch High Schools are to be under the
charge Of Head Principal or of the Superin-
tendent- Something ought to he done by the
Board in the matter. The High-School courses at
present, and particularly the course in the
Division High Schools, are ridiculous in the
extreme In the latter the work OF five years Is
crowded into a two years course, and the grad-
yates SO called leave these institutions pu6ed
ND with the idea that they have acquired
knowledge OF many hne-sounding branches,
when the fact is that they are sadly lacking in
knowledge even of the ordinary branches Mr..
Rowland has had long experience in High-School

TIE coming campaign will be fought more

parties than on personality of the candidates
The Republicans are already beginning to conf
pare the principles set forth in the Democratic
platform with the performances Of the party,
and to read certain other utterlnces in the light
Of its history and practices. The second plank
Of the Cincinnati platform, for instance, repeats
with considerable force the State-right hercsy,
which is so dcnr to the Democratic heart, but
which has been so frequently repudiared by the
people. The resolution which calls for MAIN
tenauce Of the public faith. State and National,
hasbcen repudiated time and again by the strong
