public schools, of 20,916 ia average attend
ance, and of $266063 in the school fund.
The number of districts in which no schools
were taught was 1872 in 1S69'7O and forty
two in 1880. Colored schools were taught in
ninety-one districts in 1871 and in 1O4 dis
tricts at the present date.
The outlook for our public schools is GER
tainly an encouraging one.- 1t is not con-
tended that they are perfect. They are full
of errors-errors of management, of build
ing. of method of textbook. The State
makes no requirements as to the special
qualification of the county superintendent.
They may be both ignorant and vicious;
they sometimes are. They should be teach
ers Of recognized ability, appointed by the
county board of education, or elected by the
people, instead of being as now the APP
pointee of the township trustees. The great
power vested In the township trustee is also
a source of abuse and error. He is often
his election a party triumph. The schools
are a small part of his cares, and are often
made subordinate to other interests There
are many minor defects, pertaining to
the constant change of teachers, and
of textbooks, of district boundaries
and the like; but the good work goes on.
The teachers are improving and with them
the schools.
Perhaps the greatest danger of the present
time is the tendency to overload the school
curriculum. Too many subjects are taught.
schools teach arithmetic through the book,
reading in way to inspire love of good
books and papers, and legible handwriting,
they are doing well. After all, the greatest
lesson of the school is in organization. 1t
teaches obedience, punctuality, respect for
authority-things which are left untaught in
many homes. 1t is this feature which adapts
American schools to American needs, and if
they fail in order and discipline
they fail in the most essential part.
If our teachers teach we'll the three RS and
will keep both the law and the prophets.
Not that they should only know the rudi-
ments. Goethe said: "There is nothing more
frightful than a teacher who knows only
what his pupils are intended to know. He
who means to teach Others may indeed, and
often must suppress the best of what he
knows, but he must not be half instructed"
standing, as did the gods to the first men.
teachers are the physical and spiritual giants
OF, our little children; they know not the out
come of their work. Heredity and home
training are also factors, and may not be
overcome. Let us hope that our fourteen
thousand teachers may at least surround and
overlap the dormant energies of the half
million little ones of the State with all the
tenderness of gentle nature and all the
bonds of love, and educate the heart and
morals as we'll as the hand and the mind.

Mr.. CARLISLE apologies for his committees,
saying he could name better list tomorrow
if he could have his own way but that he
had done the best he could, hampered as he
is by the conflicting interests he must con-
slider and under whose domination, to a
greater or less extent, he must act. This is
very evident from the composition of the
committees as announced There are some
most garing inconsistencies and absurd
tiles at which Mr. Carlisle himself must
have been equally amused and ashamed For
instance: By all rule, as well of right as of
precedent, Mr. Cox should have had the
Craftsmanship of the foreign affairs commit
tee. That he is fitted for the place by long
service in the House, by ed ucation by taste,
and by extensive travel and study and scholar
ship none will deny. But a whipper-snap-
and that father once the chairman OF the
national Democratic committee, and now, as
always, an influential politician because of
his money and for nothing else, wanted the
place, and the State delegation could not
unite" upon Mr.. Cox, and so he was thrust
aside. Here is courtesy" in its worst form.
What right had the State delegation of New
York to hold the disposition of an eminently
fl man in its hands? This Estate delegation
courtesy has had much to do, with both par
ties in keeping back competent, able and
experienced men, and in thrusting forward
incompetent, ambitious and inexperienced
persons. This is a courtesy" which should
CO. The only courtesy" should be fitness
and ability and experience.
Then on this same foreign affairs COM
mittee we find the name of John e. Lamb,
of Indiana. By all the gods at once, this is
too much of joke Why not have put on
Fnerty or Richelieu Robinson as tail
twister? Either of them has vastly more
ability and culture than Lamb while
neither is more untitled by nature and de-
sire for service on this committee. The last
name on the committee is that of Congress
man Hitt-a man the most conspicuously
fitted and equipped, who knows more of
foreign affairs, probably, than all the balance
of the committee put together and whose
place at the rear of the list only serves to
render bis abilities the more conspicuous
and the grotesqueness of the composition of
the committee the more side-splitting. So
far as the foreign affairs committee is con-
cerned, withouta any disparagement of Govern
or Curtins abilities and character it is clear
case of kangaroo-the head we'll enough for
appearance sake, the body laughable NAL
formation, and all the strength in its hinder
most parts.

THERE is a broad grin on the face of ma
ture. The people of Ohio slapped the Re-
publican party on one cheek because at the
last session of Congress it lowered the tariff

part of the State resented this action by Of

pledged the wool-growers to seek restora-

prominent Ohio Democrats in the House of
resentatives-Converse and Frank Hurd

ing the preliminary days, the one by intro
ducing bill to restore the duty on wool,

manner in which they cut off their noses to
spite their faces, as we'll as tender congratu-
lations TO free-trade Speaker Carlisle upon
the courage to so conspicuously rebuke the
Dem ocracy of Ohio, which stole into power
in the livery of protection. Mr.. Carlisle's re-

Head Foremost vs.. Feet Foremost

There has been some discussion as to
whether a person lying In a sleeping.cal
should place his feet toward the locomotive
or the reverse. One man (writing to a med
ical journal) travelled about $4,000 miles q
year with bis back 10 the locomotive became
extremely Ill with nervous affection, and
got well after he had given up the habit. His
doctor believes that persons who travel much
by rail should "take all sorts of Positions y
A German physician, DIR. outten, says that
II person lies with bis feet toward the en-.
gine the movement of the car tends to draw
the blood from the brain TO the feet, cerebral
an@mia Is produced and then sleep. But II
he lies with his head nearer the locomotive
Gas Is the custom In Germany there Is pro.
puced cerebral hyperemis, incompatible
with sweet repose. DR.. Mcbride, of the
Milwaukee Insane Asylum, advises exactly
the reverse. He holds that with the feet TO-
wards. the engine the blood tends to the
head. In the starting Of train momentum
is first given TO the car. Bodies In the car
resist for moment, and then acquire the
same momentum. But on the least In.
crease Of speed they offer resistance-they
are not disposed to 90 rs fast as the car. A
round marble placed on q board will roll
back when the board is moved rapidly, and
he thinks 1t reasonable TO suppose that in a
human body the blood constantly offers re-
sistance to the motion Of the train. There
fore, with the feet to the engine, the blood
will seek the brain. For this reason DR..
Mcbride urges sleeping with the head toward
the engine.
