NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

tonity for Cnildren OF the City
Schools.

All those Interested in educational mat
ters are anxious that Memphis should be
represented at the meeting OF the National
Association to be held at Madison, Wis,
next July. Children of the various
schools who have maps, drawings or
other work of artistic merit should send
them to the Hon. ]. II. Smart, general
director National Educational Exhibition,
Lafayette, Ind.
Dir. Smart is nov busily engaged on his
plans for the exhip; His recent visit to
the capitol building assured him of the
valuable facilities offered for an excellent
display of our educational material and
work, and he will soon announce the de-
partments, with their chiefs of organiza-
ton. Among the many will be found the
cluding all graphic work in writing and
drawing; ~ industrial education, cover
ing manual work in public, private, and
technical schools, (3) school literature, in-
cluding (n) textbooks of all kinds and
grades, (6) pedagogie work, including
standard and current literature; (4) school
supplies; (5) kindergarten material and
work; (6) apparatus; (O architecture
covering light, heat, and ventilation ;
ts' city organizations, programmes,
ETC.; 90 county and State organiza
tions, etc. (lO) special and tech
nical education of all grades. These
and other groups will be under special
superintendent of departments, whose
duty it will be to provide for and preside
over the exhibition as soon as space is
assigned. Reduced rates of fare, varying
from SINGLE fare to one and one-third
fares for the round trip, have already been
obtained over 60, 900 miles of railway, and
it is expected that within sixty days the
management will be able to announce a
general plan for reduced rates of travel
from every State and city in the United
States, thus affording to all the teachers
of the country an opportunity to visit the
Northwest, as well as 70 attend the great
educational meeting Everything points
to a successful gathering.

THE present age is pre-eminently one OF
conventions and Ui free discussion. No
object either oi private or public interest
escapes attention or agitation. The civil
lied world has but one great organization
that would repress, or that does openly
discourage this spirit and happily for the
world the day is long since past when even
the "molher Church, p" with all her "sacred
sanctions and awful power" may hope to
bind the human mind 10 the dead forms OF
ages gone by. In no direction is this
spirit Of inquiry more rife than in matters
OF education. The wsyld is eagerly seek
ing the best means and methods IN which
10 train its youth 20 higher success and
truorl lie. All friends ofeducation must see
hope IN the unusual stir and preparation
for the coming meeting Of educators at
Madison, Wis, July 18th to 18th. Madi-
son is one of the most beautiful and most
Charmingly located OF inland Western
towns. The State capital OF Wisconsin,
the seat Of the State university, and noted
lar and wide as \ most delightful summer
resort, nc doubt thousands OF people will
DE attracted to the meeting there in July
which seems likely now to prove not only
the greatest but the most important edu
Cational gathering ever convened on this
continent by all means Tennessee, and
Memphis, should be represented by large
delegations of teachers and others inter
ested in educational progress.

DUNN'S Bill
To Prevent the Evasion of Taxation by
Land Grant Railroads.

WASHINGTON, February 11.-Argument
was concluded this morning before the
House Committee on Pacific Railroads on
the subject of compelling land grant roads
to pay the cost of surveying such grants,
and requiring the Secretary of the Inte-
rior to issue patents conveying title to all
lands which have been legally earned.
The subcommittee having this
question in charge are Messrs
Throckmorton, Crisp and Handbach,
who will prepare bill and report for the
full committee, which will probably be
ready for the next meeting on Friday.
Two bills have been introduced i'll the
House to effect this object, one by Mr..
Anderson, of Kansas, giving the roads
ninety days after the passage of the act to
pay, under penalty of forfeiture, and the
other by Mr.. Dunn, of Arkansas, requir-
ing that the Secretary of the Interior shall
ascertain what railway companies are
indebted to the United State govern
ment for surveying, selecting and
conveying the lands granted, directing
that officer to notify the companies that
he is ready to deliver patents for all lands
they would legally be entitled to if such
costs had been paid, and, upon the failure
of the company to pay within two months,
instrIcting that the Attorney-General shall
be notified, and that the Attorney-General,
upon the receipt OF such report, shall
institute proceedings in the United States
courts having jurisdiction to secure the
payment OF such costs. All roads are to
be notified that patents have been issued
| and recorded and are ready for delivery,
and such action shall be deemed
sufficient to divert the title to all such
lands out of the government. The passage
OF either OF these bills would make large
tracts of land liable to taxation, besides
opening them to settlement and sale. The
attorneys for the roads, who have beer
opposing these measures, contend that
| large tracts Of the land are not worth the
cost of survey, and they protest against
| any compulsory legislation until theil
| value is developed. The subcommittee
is inclined to adopt the main features o
| Mr.. Dunn's bill in their report.

THE APPEAL has for many years urged
upon the County Court authorities the
construction Of macadamized roads
through Shelby county as 4 necessary and
valuable aid in increasing the trade and
commerce OF Memphis and the enhance
ment in value OF all the farms in the
county. We have piled argument on ar
gumcnL Of the most couvitsting character,
but perhaps noting that we have
said or quoted from other sources
was 50 strong as this which we copy
from tn" Chattanooga Times, of Friday
The wagon-road from Summerville, Ga,
to Valley Head, on the Alabama Great
Southern road, has been opened. The
work cost SI2G0, subscribed by the mana
ger of the Queen and Crescent route, Col.
John Scott, and the Board of Trade of
Chattanooga. The mercantile trade of
ChattoOya county, OF which Sumner
vile is the capital, amounts TO 100000
yearly, and the building OF this wagon
road will probably secure all or nearly all
OF it to our merchants, and give the rail-
road a considerable and growing business. u

Ok MONDAY last Prof. John X. Reese
read a paper entitled Theories in Regard
to the Causes Of the Recent Red Skies"
before the New York Academy of Sciences,
in which he reviewed all the theories that
had been advanced by other scientists and
said he was inclined to believe that the the
ory which attributed the unusual sunsets to
the presence OF volcanic dust thrown out
during the Java earthquake presented less
difficulties than either of the others. He
stated that this was probably the greatest
volcanic eruption on record. Thousands
Of tons OF volcanic dust must have been
thrown into the air. In rebuttal Of the
objection that the speedy settling of such
..l.As:,,,lSSsJl prevent the persistence of the
sbIfssoSa tHa, he brought forward Prof.
CrooR'ssahory that the minute particles
Were negatively electrified, and were,
therefore, not only repelled by the earth,
but also repe!led each othor, and thus
might be kept in the air for an indefinite
length OF time.
