Give the County POorhOuse II Home opathic

If we could administer our tax gathering in
homeopathic doses, it would no doubt become
quite popular. The alTpathic way of bleeding
the tax payers is always unpopular but while
cant change the methods of taxing the
people we certainly can change the method Of
cxpcnding their taxes; we mean to introduce
the homeopathic idea whenever it is pr7lcti-
cable. and We know OF no more appropriate

the county would save large amount, and
that the sick would receive relief.

skilled physicians and surgeons; and in their

scholarship. The historical portion of the
series illustrates the general scheme. Instead
of being made up of brief sketches By I'M

ical features of cyclopedias, the series will
CONAN, unabridged the great standard works of
such authors as Green, Macaulay, Grote,
Carlyle, Guizot, Gibbot, Mommsen, and 9TH
ers, with such additions by minor authors as
will make the work universal AMI complete,
as regards country and time. A comprehen-
sive index, covering the entire series, will
make consultation upon any topic convenient,
and will group together such wealth of
knowledge and interest, as Will surprise the
ordinary reader, and delight the profound
student. Green's larger history OF the Eng
lsh People, which forms The first volume OF
the Cyclopedia of History, is just issued, COM
piete in itself; and is sold separately to those
who desire it, at the marvellously low price

HIGH SCHOOL Board.

The Report of the Progress N ade in This
Branch of Education.
The high school board created by an act OF
the last legislature held its first meeting and
organized July 1. The board has completed
its report, which has been filed with the su-
perintendent of public instructions, and is as
follows:
The reports OF visitors were submitted and
accepted. These reports, with very few
exceptions, represented the schools as in
very promising condition, and the officers
having control as determined to establish
schools of higher grade. In some instances
there was not sufficient room for the proper
accommodation Of the high school depart
ments. In some also the standard for en-
trance was so low that the scholarship under
the course pursued was not good. In Others
again, there was an evident lack of ambition
education. These conditions are considered
Incidental to the work of fostering an interest
in liberal education, and under good direction
will soon disappear.
The term reports showed the schools to be
well attended, with a good percentage OF
now resident pupils.
TIE report of the examiner showed ex-
cellent work done by some of the schools
in The large number of examinations were
and the scholarly character of the work done.

PUBLIC PLUMBER

The passage of the River and Harbor
bill over the Presidents veto simply de-
monstrates the cohesive power of public
plumber. Though the bill had meritori-
GUS provisions which were used as a
cloak, it was the steals which it
embraced which gave it its strength.
On its Legitimate merits the veto could
not have been overridden, because the
merits were sadly in the minority of the
steals. All of the members
were interested in the CHAINS, -
and though the bill was profit
gate, and VIGOROUSLY so. the ltempta-
for public plumber was too great for sue
cessful resistance
1t is probable that no more shameful
legislation has been enacted for years.
The demand for public improvement mt has
notgrown so great as to require an addition
of nine millions of dollars over any previ-
GUS year or an addition of nearly eleven
millions over two years ago. 1t was a
fat job, so fat as to make congress COM
munity of plumbers.
The people, however, who are not inter-
ested in the grab, will agree that no exc
utive ever performed more creditable act
than President Arthur In the use of what
power he possessed, to stay the swelling

ST. PAUL. SATURDAY, AUGUST 5, 1882

THE st. Cloud Times, the "official
organ" of the Democracy of the Fifth
District, publishes the following in the
report of the proceedings of the Fifth
District Democratic committee meeting
held at Brainerd:
Mr.. Macdonald moved that Mr.. Simmons be
sbe elected chairman, stating that while, under
The circumstances, it might have been admissi-
bic for the state central committee to make the
selection, the committee had the power to
select its own officers, and for the purpose of
reservIng that right the motion was made. 1t
was adopted unanimously.
1t would be very mean to inquire
whether Mr.. Macdonald was impelled to
make this motion by any desire to make
a Democratic precedent to be quoted by
the Nelson Republicans as authority for
their attempt to ignore at Detroit the
selection of the Republican state central
committee. As it is impossible for the
GLOBE to be mean we forbear PROFOUND
ing such a conundrum.
