Lawyers but no Law.

[Jones, Of Texas. In Congressional debate.)
There is less law, really, among a
body Of lawyers than among any set OF
men on earth. Look at it, II you please.
What is the old adage, the old rule? l
will not repeat the Latin aphorism, be-
cause am not Latin scholar. But l
will give you the English Of it, aud it is
this: "Where the law is uncertain,
there ia no law" Take your 1893 lawyers
in the house, and they will debate In
high and low debate, and get furious,
aud after all, after debate Of two and q
half days, you cannot find two Of them
who agree about any single proposition
of law, TO save your lives. See how they
are changing here. Why, gentlemen, in
all canior and fairness, I would not give
the intuitions Of an honest rustic's heart
in pursuing and attempting to attain the
truth, for all the hne-spun arguments oi
all the lawyers in the universe.

L]UDICRors IGNORANCE.

The Carson Appeal says Congressman
Cassidy lodged a vote on the passage OF
the River and Harbor bill over the Pres
ident's veto. Wrong again, remarks the
Virginia Chronicle. He paired in favor
of sustaining the veto, and a pair-we
will state for the benefit Of our enlight.
ened eonternporary-is as good as a vote.
Even if Mr.. Cassidy had voted for the
River and Harbor bill, and voted to pass
it over the veto, he would have been in
the same boat with Senator Jones. Did
the Appeal ever hear Of the River and
Harbor bill until day before yesterday
From its amazing blunders in mentioning
that measure. and its ludicrous ignorance
Of Congressman Cassidy's record with
reference 70 it, We should judge that the
Appeal had just begun TO read up on the
doings OF the last Congress, and with a
copy Of the Congressional Record that
has taken &c drink.

SERGEANT MASON AGAIN.

Again an application will be made to
hsbeas corpus Sergeant Mason out OF
prison. There are some people who
think that because Guiteau is now dead
and deserved his fate, and, because
Mason who shot at him missed him, the
nature Of his crime is reduced. Bat a
deliberate assault with intent to kill is a
wicked thing, and made worse by the
fact that Mason at that time stood in the
uniform OF a United States soldier, up
holding law against riot. For him to
use his weapon against the mar that his
soldierly duty required him to protect
was bad indeed.

uLrrERACY OF THE PEOPLE.

The bill Of Mr. Blair Of New Hamp-
shire. introduced at the last session OF
the Senate, providing that the Govern
ment should appropriate certain moneys
for educational purposes, has elected a
considerable amount Of newspaper dis
cussion. Pessimistic correspondents have
dilated at length upon the dangers OF an
illterate population. and have gone even
further than Mr.. Blair in charging a
lack Of education upon the people gen.
orally. One Of these, in the New York
Tribune, Is appalled, at the condition of
things, since Mr.. Blair finds that five
tweltths OF our school population are
growing up in absolute ignorance OF the
English alphabet. This seems in
credible to the correspondent, and IS
incorrect as well as incredible, according
to School superintendent Peaslee Of Gin
cinnati-in which city Mr.. Blair found
4 10000 children growing up in ignor-
ance as dense as thar Of the iungles OF
Africa" Waving the question as to
how ''dense" the ignorance Of the
"~jungles Of Africa IS, Superintendent
Peaslee points out that, in 1880, there
were SIS, $50 persons Of school age in
Cincinnati, and tina. Il 1915 Of these were
enrolled in schools. This left "a. 567-
or, by Mr.. Blair's calculation, 40, 600
not enrolled. But it must be remem-
bered that the school age in Ohio is from
six 20 twenty-one years. The average
age at which the pupils graduate from
the Cincinnati high schools is less than
nineteen years. Consequently, many Of
these graduates are reckoned with the
unrolled school children, because Of
whose ignorance Mr.. Blair is so much
distressed. Again, many parents decline
to send their children TO school until the
latter are eight or nine years Of age.
Many more OF these uurolled youth at.
tended school for several years and left
only to enter upon active business and
gain a practical education. Deductins
the number OF those persons from Mr..
Blair's 10000 would leave, doubtless, a
very small percentage relatively Of hope
lessly ignorant ones. 1t is a matter
O. knowledge that the poor mar in the
United States will endure almost any
privation in order to give his children a
common school education at the least,
and what more than this does the aver
age man or woman need: II Mr.. Blair
is correct in saying that only fourteen
per cent Of the immigration coming to
our shores from Europe is illiterate, the
future Of our educational institutions is
certainly assured.

ANOTHER STAR ROUTE TRIAL.

Mr., ker Of the Star Route prosecu-
ton is near enough to Attorney General
Brewster 10 confer significance upon his
declaration that the Government will go
into the December trials better prepared
TO convict Brady. the Dorseys and the
minor criminals than it was before.
What the conspirators are now chiefly
aiming at is to avoid another trial before
Judge Wylie. II they can get him of
the bench, or transfer their cases to an
ether Court, they imagine they would
stand 2 better chance OF going free.
Their superstition that no other Judge
would see their guilt as plainly as Judge
Wylie did, and conduct the trial accord
ingly, is not a compliment to the intelli-
gsnce and integrity Of the other Judges,
bat it elevAtes him in the popular esti-
nation. Ii 10 to be hoped Mr.. Ker's
sanguiue expectations Of a verdict Of
guilty against the principals at the COM
ing trial will be borne out by the result
but the hi4tory Of the recent trial proves
the difficulty Of obtaining an honest
jury in Washington when official cor.
r~uptionists are under indictment.
