Indians and Railroads.

Offensive and defensive alliances
were made between the various Indian
tribes when the country from New
York city westward was almost an I'M
broken wilderness. Now these scalp
ing contracts are made between rich
railroad corporations, the latest being
between the Erie and the New York
Central s'systems'' on the east-bound
freights. The Erie is to enjoy coequal
privileges over the roads west of Buffa-
10, and at that point the freight is
divided. How long the compact will
last depends If precedent is Of

SCRAP NOTWITHSTANDING BOOKS.

Boston has been trying IN experiment
that should have long ago suggested it
self in many places where model public
school systems are claimed, says the
New York Herald. In some of the
schools the ordinary reading books of
the scrap book variety have been dis
p~lacedby continuous stories, narratives,
and poems, such as children delight in;
and the consequences were just what
might have been expected; pupils who
had been reading blunderingly and
without interest the scraps of prose
and verse that constitute the conven-
tional reading book, have, since the
change, been deeply interested in their
reading lessons, and, therefore, have
learned rapidly. Any one who knows
how large a proportion of school time
is devoted to reading, and who realize
how few, comparatively, of our school
children ever enjoy any higher educa-
tional facilities than the public schools
afford, will hope that the Boston exper-
iment may be repeated everywhere.
Learning to read does not consist mere
ly Of the ability to remember and enun-
ciate words, or to gain a smattering Of
the art of elocution, which is an orna-
mental instead of Il practical study.
The main end Of reading is to be able
to intelligently follow an author and
his tonic mn motter how lonu fha t,sk

Cunurcticut's tramp law passed
by the last Legislature, evidently works
well. Replies to a circular letter TO the
town officials, asking answers to foul
questions concerning the working of
this law, are published by the Hartford
Courant from nearly every town in the
state, and the W are remarkable
for their unanimity in approval of the
law. The testimony is indeed almost
literally unanimous in favor of the en-
actment. The questions were these:
/. Has the tramp law resulted In PRACTICAL
ly freeing your town from trampsi
2. Have you knowledge Of the tramp law
being used to Cypress deserving men in any
ins ance?
s. Isthe tramp sustained by public opinion
In your town:
4. Please mention specific benefits to your
town derived from the operation oft b tramp
law, II any.
The answers, in every instance, are
that towns are now free from the intol-
cradle nuisance of tramp" that in no
case has the law been used to Cypress
or wrong a deserving man; that the
law is overwhelmingly, if not absolute
ly, sustained by public opinion, in every
town; and that since the law went into
operation (less than a year ago. every
town is believed from the trouble and
expense of providing lodgings for these
tramps, while the ONE and children
are relieved of a burden of fear. The
effect of the law seems to have been to
drive the whole body oftramps ver the
line, into adjoining states. There, they
are still heard of, and prove to be, as
ance and q great public evil. Things
had reached such a pass, that in many
parts of Connecticut a long suffering
people had almost become ready, in the
absence of any other of protect
ion, to take the law into their own
hands, and abate, by the last resort, a
nuisance which had grown to be intoler-
able. In Hartford tine chief of police
reports that in place of 100 to 140 lodg-
ers Il night, now there are but three or
four, of the vagrant class. 1t is so all
over the state. The enactment of this
sharp and effective law, drove the whole
body of tramps out of the state, as sud
denly as the appearance of a man with
a gun will drive a flock of crows out of
q corn feld.
Not that all the poor men who took
to the road were of the lazy and vicious
ly vagrant class which is popularity UNI
derstood to characterize fbe tramp"
Here and there, and in instances not a
few, during the hard times there were
honest and worthy men whose only
crime was want of work. These, how
ever, were but few, in comparison with
the whole body of lazy fellows who in
ever increasing numbers took to the
road for a living, in ways sometimes
only a little better than the highway
mans crime was not infrequently add
ed to their various minor offences; and
not the least part of the tramp evil was
the %brooding terror it engendered in the
most defenceless part of the population.
All this accumulated and accommodating
evil has been banished from Connecti-
cut at a single touch, by the bill which,
introduced last year by Mr.. Kellogg, of
Manchester, was made the law that is
now so universally approved Hartford
Times.

to the ground. United States authority
would mean United States prot, Ctlon,
and against that, the moment it is once
distinctly asserted, not 4 thousand dol
lars of foreign capital could be raised
in the interest of any rival scheme. If
this subject is to be considered at all,
it must be considered at once. NJ. de
Lesseps is in the field. If we make no
Sign, it is a notification to the world
that we do not care. Gentlemen at
Washington who think that likely to
be a popular curse will find their mis-
take. Upon the statesmen of the dem
ocratic caucus rests the responsibility
Of caring for the interests and the
honor of the country in this matter.
We believe they think they will have
to take up the question some time, but
at present they are stopped by the diff
Guilty of deciding whether they can
afford to involve the government in the
expense for a clerk for the committee
to which it should be referred. We
have not been used to finding them so
slow about grabbing petty offices. If
the country should once wake up to
the fact that they are now lodging
their responsibility and neglecting a
matter of high national and interna-
ton concern, while they display this
unwonted dawdling over n small
clerkship, they would hear enough to
make them settle the clerkship question,
n way or the other, very quickly

MANY politicians of the. democratic
party affect to believe that Tilden lost
his chances for nomination by not ris-
ing to the dignity of the situation dur
ing the stormy days of the electoral
count and the times Immediately sue
ceeding it. They are chatting him now
for his lack of .'sand" and are rubbing
his hide in a manner to be despised.
Commenting on this fact, a democratic
paper of Colorado says: ''When An
drew jackson, after receiving many
thousand more votes than any other
candidate, was beaten out of the presi-
dency by the election being thrown into
the house, John Quincy Adams who got
1t was morally regarded as an usurper,
and the legislature of Tennessee in
deep Indignation immediately nominal
ell Jackson who was thus distinctly be-
fore the country for four years previous
to the next election. Had Tllden for
4 mally come forward as candidate for
the next term on the day Hayes was
~inaugurated there would probably be
no other democrat mentioned for tie
place at this time.n

THE PANAMA CANAL AND THE
MONROE DOCTRINE.

1t is evident that the time is at hand
when this government must either do
something about the efforts for an 18TH
mus canal, or make up its mind finally
TO do nothing. 1t a now do what
ever it p~leases, and neither NJ. de Les
seps nor anybody else will be able to lift
a spade against its expression of its
will. But if it merely continues to
make no sign, foreign capital will get
committed, and then foreign govern
ments will be drawn in to protect the
capital of their citizens, and the Mon
roe doctrine will have disappeared like
a morning fog. This we do not believe
the American people intend. We may
not be very eager for an isthmus canal
ourselves, but we are not going to be
contented to let the French build it.
We want no foreign complications; yet
to tolerate that would be the shortest
and easiest way to having our hands
filled with them. We were not willing
that our turbulent Mexican neighbors
should have n Hapsburg empire set up
along our southern frontier; and we
are Just as unwilling that the success
ors Of Napoleon III. should attempt
another foothold on the soil of the on
tinent, even in the seductive guise of a
peaceful triumph of engineer skill.
But we cannot play dog-in-the-manger.
If there is a real demand for a mode of
getting ships across the istfimus, we
must either let capital furnish it under
our protection, or under the protection
of somebody else. We have the I'M
? doubted initiative. but if We do not ex-
excise it, we cannot expect other people
to wait on us forever. If the United
+, States will authorize the organization
of a company to construct a ship canal
or ship railway across the isthmus,
every foreign scheme will instantly fall
