SANITARY RESULTS or EDUcA710M

The usual arguments against the examining
system in the public schools have been re-
peated this year In the British House of Com
mons. Mr.. Smith, member for Liverpool, read
a large number of letters from schOomasters
and physicians as evidence upon which to base
the conclusion that the physical and mental
mowers OF school children, especially of girls,
were becoming impaired through the undue
nressure of competitive examinations. Some
of these letters gave instances of sleeplessness
and q general loss of health on the part OF
children, and the prediction was made
that if this system of Overworxing pupils
particularly girls, were to go on foi
a few generations, England would become
a poor, sickly nation. These and similar argu-
ments were most successfully refuted by Sir
Lyon Payfair, who proved In the first place,
that the educational standards in England
age for age, we're the lowest in Europe, and,
secondly, that there had been q marked i'm
provement in the general health of children
since the Education Act had been in force. DE
contended that it was not well-regulated worl
that was injurious to the brain or health oil
childrel, but ill-regulated work and the fac
that since 1870 there had been decreased
mortality of about 33 per cent among children
between the ages of five and fifteen. ant
also between the ages of fifteen and twenty

Two considerations combine to make the DEM
ocratic leaders very gloomy as they think of 'S4.
These are. first, their inability to elect the old
ticket; second, their inability to prevent any new
ticket that they may agree on from being de-
feated.

The account of the highway robbery in
One-hundred- and fifty -sixth-st. Saturday night
is anything but creditable to the police force.
It is startling to read of a mans being pur-
sued, fred at and caught by highwaymen in the
streets of the city before it is fairly dark, and
then left, MORALLY wounded, to crawl to
a place where he could find assistance. 1t is
useless to ask the whereabouts of the police at
the time. They are hardly ever about when
needed. No doubt we will be told that 1t is
all owing to the fact that there are not enough
patrolmen, though only recently the force
was increased in that part of the city.

Close observers of affairs in Ireland will agree
with the views expressed in our London let
ter that the improvement in the state of the
country is principally on the surface. Law
lessness has been greatly reduced, but the
temper of the people has not changed. That
has remained In about the same warning con-
dition for over century. 1t is not clear just
what will satisfy the Parnell party. Its leaders
are now organizing an extensive electoral
campaign; and we are told that they will
hgitate for an Irish Parliament and the
further extension of the demand for peasant
proprietary and for the selection Of Nation
alists of the League school for ali public places
In Ireland. That is an extensive programme.

The prospects are good for an International
rifle match at Creedmoor next year. The
English team has $4,000 subscribed already
for that purpose. The American rifemen have
learned that practice makes perfect, IN shoot
ing AZ a target as we'll as in other things, and
they will no doubt be better prepared for a
contest next year. At the Creedmoor range
the riAemen will not have to stand IN water up
to their ankles even if the weather is bad, as
Captain Howard says was the case at VIM
bledon. Perhaps that will improve the chances
of the Americans next timo though they
oueht to be able to endure as much as the
English.

In his letter printed in to-day's TRIBUNE
Mr.. Porter continues to expose free-trade
fallacies. Under protective tariff the woollen
industry of Germany has been steadily in
creasing, while the same industry in free
trade England has been as steadily decreas-
ing. The difference is the more striking be-
cause Germany was decreasing her woollen
exports previous to the adoption of protec-
tive tariff Since that time the home product
has been enormously increased, imports have
largely fallen off and the export trade has
been almost doubled. AS the figures show
Germany under protection has come nearer by
$4,000 900 to supplying her own wants ana yet
can manufacture cheaply enough to increase her
foreign market $3O.OO0,0O0. On the other
hand England has lost $76,OOO,OOO OF her
foreign trade in the same class OF goods, ana
increased her importation of them to the
value of about $40, 100000. These are solid
facts, the Importance of which is heightened
by the knowledge that during the same time
there has been great improvement In the
wages of Germany.

Apparently there is a scarcity of live topics
for discussion in Kentucky as dead one oc-
cupies so much public attention. The spirited
controversy which has been going on there
for some time over the killing in 1864 of
John Morgan, of the Confederate Army, has
not added anything to the truth of history.
The controversial accounts of the killing are
about as numerous and varied as were those
80 often published in this State in regard
TO the death of William Morgan. OF Batavia,
who was concerned in the anti-Masonry agita
ton. The official reports made IN 1854 stated
That John Morgan was shot while attempting
to make his escape. There has been nothing
published since to cause any impartial person
to believe otherwise.
