HOW LOUISIANA TREATS HER EDUCA-
TED MEN:
IShreveport Standard

Our friend Col ID. f. Boyd, l.. l.. D.,
so long tho confessed head Of Louisiana
educators, has become possessed of tho
valuable property attached to tho
Locust Dale Academy, in Madison
county, Virginia, and will leave on
the lst of August to mako preparations
for opening his session In September.
This Is one OF tho best patronixci Of
the many fine institutions that have
grown up in Virginia as preparatory
schools to tho University, has been in
operation for nearly twenty-five years,
and in the hands of such Il proprietor
as Col. Boyd cannot fail to prove
successful venture and n highly profit
able Investment. Himself distin-
guished alumnus of tho University, he
will be assisted by two or three of the
ai'lest a. M. graduates of that famed
institution. We will venture to affirm
who havc sons to prepare for tho Vir-
ginia colleges, will not fail to place
them under tho charge of QUO to whom
the educational interests of tho State
are so much Indebted. For, Col.
| Boyd, though his work Is In a distant
land, is still IL Lonisianinn, as
thoroughly devoted to tho welfare of
our people as he has over been. He
has purchased \ finc rcSidenceot Baton
Rouge, where his family will continue
to reside permanently, and where hc
will himself spend all his spare time.
And thus, after 4 quarter Of II con-
tury spent in the service of tho people
of Louisiana, has Col. Boyd been
suffered to take away his profound
scholarship and largo experience to
other fields. So J. Lawrence Smith
and John w. Maiiett had to leave, for
the want of proper employment, to
shed lustrc on the walks of science in
other lands; with this difference, how
ever, that they were allowed to depart
quietly without being subjected to Il
special indIsnity ut tho hands Of tho
people whom they had served. With
such facts before us we have tho most
anxious forcbodings with regard to tho
future Of higher education in Louisi-
ana. Universities and colleges are not
built up in a day, nor can they bo built
up ut all IL those who manage them arc
governed by no stronger motive power
than the signature of tho Treasurer tt
!, tho warrant which draws their mon
thly pay. And how can we hope II
Z retain any other kind if tho devoted
and conscientious educator has to carry
. continually on his shoulders I'M Oit
:; Man of tho Sea in tho shape of II fcu
" lest his services, however eminent
. may 1all 10 evoke u proper apprccAa
y tiLn or to shield him from impropc
- treatment? We have long looked ol
tho energy, enthusiasm and devotion
of Col. Boyd as aiIortling the onl
~ hope of establishing II iirst-class litcrar
=" institution in Louisiana within til
= present generation. And we were no
singular, AS 1t should seem, in ou
opinion; for the millennium of pros
" pcrity which was supposed to DO read

WHO FIRST DISCOVERED AMERICA.

Chicago lntcr-Occ9n.
Some years ago m eminent antigua
rian, Prof. Haio, published a book
showing that the Mortimer, or Scan
dinnvnns, undoubtedly visited the
shores OF North America about tho
year 1000, and that they probably en-
tered Narraganscii Bay. This sug-
.cstcd to some American antiquarianS
that the old tower ut Newport, II. l.,
might have been erected by those
hardy uiVcnturcra. Considerable stress
was laid upon this coupled with tho
fact, that about II thousand years ago,
these N orthmcn settled Iceland, and it
is known that Il colony was sent from
there to Greenland, while glance ut
the map VIII show that the distance
| from there to the North American
coast il not SO great, that 1t could have
| easily been reached by thcso carly
| roycrs. 1t is also recorded in Tic Morse
traditions that tho Mortimer in sail
ing West actually arrived ut some
country beyond Greenland. The Morse
4 narratives described n mild cline in
the country they visited, and mention

The Oldest, aud doubtless the rich

is Horace Brooks, age "a years, whose
long imprisonment is likely to be ter

was received at the penitentiary, No

for murder in the second degree, and

years. He owned farm in the sub.

Dakota a. a state.

Dakota has been talking of the pos
sibilities and probabilities of becom-
ing q State for two or three years. No
one had the temerity to ask for admis-
sion at once, but there was to be d
gradual working up of public senti
ment until an actual admission was
secured. Suddenly boom for Dako
ia as State has been organized, and
is being actively pushed to secure GER
tain political advantages. 1t is not
that they care for the State, but they
desire the two votes in the Senate
which the admission would give.
1t is quite possible that Dakota may
slip into the Union during the next
session OF Congress as political me-
cessity. The East is jealous OF Wes-
tern supremacy, and if the question
came up purely on the abstract issue
OF admitting State, Dakota would
knock in vain. By the peculiar situa-
ton Of affairs she seems likely to be
literally dragged into the Union by
main strength and awkwardness,
whether she wishes to come or not.
1t 10 doubtful whether the majority of
the people of Dakota desire admission
at present. The territory is unwield-
ly, aud they prefer to secure its divis-
ion. AS territory it is easily divi-
ded, as State it will be substantially
impossible. Hence this sudden boom
does net find as much favor as might
be expected among those most direct
ly interested. This, however, ia q
matter of small moment to Republi-
can politicians. They need another
State to give them control OF the Sem
ate, and Dakota is the only available
territory to use for that purpose. Sen
atorial candidates in Dakota might as
well 20 into training,-St. Paul Globe.

The Chicago Tribune, the great Re
publican thunderer of the North W est,
editorially says:
"It may occur to an intelligent per-
SON that it is extremely impertincnt
in this free country for Z certain class
Of laborers, chiefly consisting Of fer
eignera, to maintain that the owners
of mills and shops shall not send to
Europe any more for their labor. But
haven't these labOrers been taught by
disciples Of the protection doctrine
that they are entitled 10 exclusive
privileges of employment and the
high rate of wages incident to an alb
sence Of competition How are the
foreign laborors in America 10 be pro-
tected from the 'pauper labor of Eu.
rope, as the ProtectiOnists have al
ways promised they should be, il the
'pauper labor Of Europe is to be
freely imported into this country?
The 'pauper labor Of Europe trans
planted to American soil is palpably
just as much of competition as il lite
products from Europe were admitted
to this country free of tax"
Thereupon the Cincinnati CONNER
cial, the great Republican Muldoon Of
Ohio, remarks on the above:
"The Protec.isnists who have re.
Gently so Justify shouted that they had
the world rolling their way, should

After all the pother about the Star
rout ring and its robberies, it is be-
coming quite evident that the entire
gang of rascals will 60 scott free. There
is not . doubt of their guilt, but the
political influence of the crowd is too
great to render conviction among the
probabilities. There is strong st1s-
picisn that President Arthur is not In
earnest in his expressions of desire
for a vigorous prosecution, and that
the retirement of Attorney-General
McVeagh is occasioned by want OF
faith in the sincerity of the President.
Dorsey and Brady are the head and
front of the offenders and the chief
beneficiaries. In other words they
pocketed most of the swag. Dorsey il

Committee and knows all the secrets

York for his success in bribery in In
diana, and one of his entertainers was
President Arthur, who locked upon

test as good joke. The accomplished
Dorsey is therefore perfectly uncon-
cerned. He knows he is safe. He has

meaning. McVeagh does not want to
