Is, that IL they cannot at all times re-
dress their grievances by securing the
aid OF the military arm Of the service,
they must unite in force, Us they have
done on this occasion, and teach their
Indian neighbors a lesson in the code
Of honor. II Is not a question Of will
lingness on the part Of the soldier
whether he will fight or not, for he is
entirely subject to the orders which he
receives from his officers, and they, in
their turn, must comply with the re-
| quirements Of orders issued to them by
those superior In rank and back Of all
this, there Is the sentiment Of the coun-
try, which dictates the force Of the
army. As that only provides for the
use of n very small military power,
ranchmen and cowboys, II they desire
fuller protection in their lives and
property than that which Is already &C.
corded them, must appeal to this senti.
ment, and, that failing, must OF neces-
sity take 1t upon themselves to provide
this needed protection. Let the worthy
editor OF tho Times censure the soldier
for what he is justly censurable; but
let him not forget that, while he Is de-
claiming against him unfairly, the very
prosperity which he may be, and thou
sands OF others are, enjoying in this
western country, Is justly due to his
efforts, and Is the natural outgrowth Of
the hardships and privations which he
has borne in opening up that section Of
the western country in response to thu
pressing demands Of civilization.

THE MANAGEMENT OF THE SCHOOLS

Evidently there Is room for much i'm
public schools are governed. The Board
of Education and the Superintendent
ought to work in perfect harmony. 1t has
been suggested that this could be accom-
plished by giving the Board the appoint
ment of Superintendent. That has been
done at Quincy. but the circumstances at
Quincy are peculiar. In that city the
people have been fortunate and judicious
enough to elect and then keep in office
Board of Education composed of highly
educated men of wealth and leisure, and
this exceptionally capable Board has been
in its turn fortunate enough to find Su-
perintendent who is trained educator of
rare ability and experience. The Board of
Quincy, moreover, after fully satisfying
itself of the ability of the perintendent,
placed the schools entirely in his hands,
and confined itself thenceforward to such
acts OF helpfulness as were needed. Under
ordinary conditions, and restricted as we
are by the existing political system, we
could not hope for such measure of sue
cess. In the first place our Board of Edu-
cation cannot be said to be the result of
special selection in any way. The
nominees are put forward through the
ordinary political machinery, and if
they prove to be capable it is mere
chance work. The same assertions apply
to the Superintendent. He also is politi-
cal nominee, quite independent of the
Board, and not chosen in such manner as
to afford any opportunity for intelligent
selection. The general result is OF course
haphazard We may have a good Board
and good Superintendent, or good
Board and poor Superintendent, or
poor Board and good Superintendent, or
bad Board and a bad Superintendent.
The whole business is made lottery, and
the public never can know how it is going
to turn out until after the election. If the
Board was chosen in accordance with bust
ness principles much improvement would
follow. If, that is to say, its members
could be selected from those citizens who
possess education and sufficient interest in
the work and leisure for its performance to
secure due attention on their part. Such
Board might be safely intrusted with the
appointment of the Superintendent, but
such Board we are very unlikely to get
while the present system obtains, and until
We can get it there would be no assurance
of better things in changing the mode of
procuring superintendent.

A RADICAL LAND SCHEME.

Mr.. Alfred Russell Wallace proposes, in
the Contemporary Revie,o what he very
correctly designates "a radical solution of
" the Irish land problem" 1t is certainly
the most sweeping and comprehensive
proposition that has yet been or that is at
all likely to be made. Mr.. Wallace in fact
proposes that law shall be enacted de-
creeing that at the expiration of four lives
all the land in Ireland shall revert to the
State, and shall then be let at moderate
ground rent, the proprietors or occupants
at the time of the lapse having the prefer
ence in applications for the tenancy. This
scheme, which Mr.. Wallace appears to
have thought out Independently, since he
makes no mention of Henry Georges or
Laveley's propositions on the subject, is in
effect almost identical with that which the
first-named of these two writers has ad.
vanced in '' Progress and Poverty Mr..
Wallace does not seek to fortify his pc.
sition by the arguments which Mr.. George
thinks strongest, but he argues that the
right of the State to take the land rests
upon the same kind of foundation as the
right of the individual to bequeath the
land Thus he says: "The power Of
UNLIMITED transmission of land, in
I" fixed line, not as an estate to be occupied
"and personally enjoyed, but solely as a
s'source of wealth and social influence,
"has been shown to be contrary to
"public policy; and here, therefore,
.'our main principle viii come into op-
"eration-namely, that whatever may be
"done legally and equitably by individuals
''may also be done by the State. Now,
