NATIONAL EDrCArIONALAID

NATIONAL EDUCATIONAL AID.
There would now appear to he a
very fair prospect that congress will
inaugurate a system Of national aid
for public education. The amount OF
illitcracy in the country, AS revealed
by the last census, especially in the
southern states, has put people to
thinking. a government that pro-
fesses to he based npon the intelli-
gence of its citizcus must needs see
hat the facilities for acquiring intel
ligence are placed within the reach
OF Its people. Hence, after
reading the census figures, many
congressman, heretofore indifferent to,
ifnot. actually opposed to national
educational aid have become convert
ed into warm advocates Of the meas
urc. The bill now pending, and
which will probably become IL law,
sppropriatcs $40 900 900 per annum
/ Tor fiyQ,year- among the several states,
in proportion to the actual number
of lllilcratc persons mot the per cent
/ age Of illtcracy IN etch state, based
on the census Of 1850. How such
distribution would affect the
sixteen southern states, may be
seen from the following table.

there will be- a great attack Of cholera
throughout the world. lilo bases his
opinion ON the pcriodicity Of the dis
case, which reaches it maximum
yirulcncc every sixteenth or seven
tccuth year. lie says that cholera
was rife throughout the world in 1917,
1858, 1850 aud 1866, and therefore ii
will again reach:lts highest fatality in
1883. lie further shows that, Ms the
first appearance of cholera in Eng
land took place in October, 1882, and
has returned in epidemic torm with
unlhiling accuracy every seventeenth
year since then, there is reason to ex-
poct it next year, especially ms 1t is

Mr.. BLAINE IN WASHINGTON

A Washington correspondent says :
James G. Blaine is prominent, figure
jus, now in Washington soeie,y-social
and political-and although it has been
semi-officially announced that he is on,
of politics forever, there is always great
desire to know his opinions on passing
events. Mr.. Blaine's health appears to
be excellent. Tall, portly and graceful
in movement, his wealth of white hair
sets OF his expressive features, with their
penetrating never-quiet dark eyes. Just
now he is moving his lares and penates
into his wonderfully commodious and
comfortable new house, and is vibratin &
between Massachusetts, Avenue and the
New York furniture ware houses. Mr..
Travers who will occupy the old Blaine
house on Fifteenth street, want. to get
installed there at once, and he has pur-
chased much of the furniture-but Mr..
Blaine has had to hurry into his new
domicile sooner than he anticipated. 1t
is an imposing structure, covering bloc k
of ground about IS by 20 feet, and is
solid and substantial from its steep roof
to its rcomy basement. The spacious
halls and stairways are wainscoated, fin
ished and ceiled in oak /; the drawing
room, the dining room and the library are
finished in solid mahogany; and the
chambers are finished in poplar and pine.
The great charm Of the house is that
each and every room, large and small.
has its open fire place, some Of them
surrounded by beautiful msntlepices,
with carved wood and mirrors. 1t is in.
deed, an English house, with its COM
forts set off by many Yankee contriv-
snces."

ELECTION SCENES IN ALABAMA.

A Washington despatch to the Tn
bme says: Second Auditor Reynolds
has returned from Alabama, where he
went to make Republican speeches and
to vote. Everything was so fair and or
derby to all appearance up to the day OF
election, that he was hardly able to cred
it the assertion of Republicans that the
Democrats would practice frauds to Sc
cure the victory. He determined there
fore to watch the process of voting in Sell
ma, where he was. and satisfy himself,
if possible, what grounds there ought to
be for suspicion of irregularity. Every
thing apparently was fair and regular to
the reception of the votes. Two lines
were formed, one being composed OF white
and the other of colored voters. None
were challenged and no efforts to delay
voting were noticed. The crowd was
KEEP, thirty feet from the polling place,
as required by law. The Republicans
were nevertheless so thoroughly convinc-
ed tina, false counting had been deter
mined upon by the Democrats that they
decided to keep tally list Of Republi.
can, who voted, and for this purpose
they placed table with ink and paper
upon it in the yard. By noon the line
of white voters had dwindled away to
nothing, while that of colored voter, was
full, and continued so during a greater
portion of the day. Early in the after
noon a party of FIVE or six young white
men approached the table where the Re-
publican tally list was kept and one OF
them accosting the tally man asked.
"What are you doing this for: ;"
1--WE are keeping tally of the Re-
publican voters" was the reply.
"Wil you take my name" was the
next question.
Certainly if YOU will vote Republi-
can ticket"
"Let me see how it is DONE" said the
Democrat leaning over the table as If TO
scrutinize the work. Immediately he
seized the papers which then contained
the names Of more than six hundred vot-
ers, and returning among his fellows tore
them to pieces and threw them on the
ground. Mr.. Reynolds who had wit
messed this affair, asked the tally man
why he didn't protest or do something to
defend his tally list. "Of wha, uss ;"
vas the reply. Didn't you see those
fellows pu, their hands in their hip
pockets: saw it meant fight and |
should only have los, my life for nothing.
After the polls closed and while the
votes were being counted Mr.. Reynolds
asked Democrats who were standing
about awaiting the result how many
Democratic votes they supposed had been
cast. The highest estimate was 800.
Mr., Reynolds who had been present dur
ing the whole day, thought this estimate
was abou; fifty in excess Of the true num-
Der. When the result was declared i,
was found that 1900 votes had been
asst, the Democratic candidate receiving
500 majority according TO the returns
made by the Democratic officials who
conducted the all eyed count.
