Important Investigations.

system. The public attention was called TO
the matter in this city by action of Col. Mer-
rill of the school board at whose instance a
hearing was given by the committee, when
several public spirited citizens interested in
the schools attended and offered their views.
The very decided opinion against the mark
ing system contained in the recent report of
Superintendent Marble of Worcester, Mass,
which we reprinted, called out COMMUNE
cation from well known teacher who took
issue with Mr.. Marble on some points. Yes
terday we published communication con-
demning the system, signed by initials which
we're, of course, recognized as those of one of
our leading physicians.
All these gentlemen are well qualified to
speak on the subject intelligently by their
large experience and trained habits of OBJ
servation. What they have to say deserves,
and we have reason to believe it has re.
ceived, the serious attention of teachers and
parents. II is to be hoped that the members
of the school board who are responsible for
the condition of things have also given heed
to the important considerations advanced.
Indee there are many indications that they
are alive to the nature of the criticism
made upon present methods. They are pur-
suing investigations in their own ways, the
results of which will probably in due time
be laid efore the public.
One of their ways and one which deserves
to be regarded with as much concern as Gu
riosity is to find out what the pupils think
Of the system. If this can be fully and fair
ly ascertained everybody must acknowledge
that it will go far to settle the question. For
who are 30 well qualified to express wise
and conclusive opinion upon the merits Of
systems of education as the children who

The franchise bill passed TO second read
in the House of Commons by the surprising
majority of $50. Mr.. Gladstone's speech in
favor of the bill seems to have produced
wonderful effect, for previous to its delivery
the fate of the bill had been regarded as un-
certain. In the House of Lords the bill is GER
tain to be killed if the members of that body
vote in response to their feelings. But the
large majority in the lower house will make
the Lords hesitate to provoke a contest in
which their defeat in the end is certain.
The principal class which will be enfran-
chised by the bill is the agricultural laborers,
and It's effect will be chiefly on the county
seats, which are now held for the most part
BY the Tories. The bill is a long stride
toward Democracy, and therefore is viewed
with alarm by the nobility.

The troubles in DR.. Newman's church show
no disposition to heal. The dissatisfied mem
bers recently submitted to the pastor sew
elal propositions on the acceptance of which
they promised to lay down their arms DIR.
Newman expressed willingness to accept
them on condition that the leaders of the
faction which opposed him should resign
from the board and leave him in full con-
troll. This they refused to do. Then the
pastor went through the farce of presenting
his resignation to a meeting of his support
ers, which he knew would not accept it. He
then patronizingly forgave his enemies and
resolved to continue in his pastorate. The
Ranneyites, however, are not willing to be
forgiven and propose to take the controver-
eY to the courts.

The PRESS recently requested the Bangor
Commercial tc give the statements of Judge
Appleton from which it inferred that
he was in favor of license law. The
Commercial complies by saying that "Judge
Appleton has frequently declared that,
while the prohibitoEy law may have worked
we'll in the country towns, he was inclined
TO believe that high license law would
work better in the cities" Perhaps the
strictly correct inference from this statement
would be that Judge Appleton is not set
tied In his mind as to the comparative mer-
Its of license and prohibition. Still the
Commercials inference that he favors IL
cense is not very violent one.

between Eogland and Portugal becomes a
matter of little concern. Mr.. GIadsto one
said the treaty did not recognize Portugal's
right to control! the Congo, but it was simply
commercial arrangement between the two

any pretensions Portugal might set up to

The delegates from York, Pa, to the
Democratic State convention have framed a
revenue plank such as they would like to
see In the platform to be framed by the
Democratic Nationa! convention. 1t favors
in the first place the s'repeal of the internal
taxes THAT is. the taxes on whiskey and to-
baccol as being unnecessary, oppressive, in
furious and attended with corruption;' and
In the second place it favors 1.-THE ''taxiDg of
foreign imports for the purpose authorized
by the constitution. namely, to raise reyel
nue. sufficient for the legitimate needs of
the Treasury, with incidental protection en-
couragement and reward, equal and just TO
all classes of men and all kinds of lawful
business, including manufactures, agricul-
ture and commerce in all their branches"
Evidently the Pennsylvania Democrat is
quite as radical protectionist as the Penn
sylvania Republican, and both of them are
altogether too radical for the country at
arge, which is not ready to adopt the Kel-
ley and Randall policy of freeing whiskey
and tobacco in order to compel higher tar
