Certainly less than this would not be thought
of in any business affair, and why not in so
important thing as the public schoolsG The
discussions of the past two weeks have shown
many of the weaknesses of school admins
tration, many places where red tape can be cut
where common sense can be used instead Of
technical humbug, and have indicated the ne
cessity of just consideration of the fact that
the schools are for the benefit of the children
and the public, and not solely for the use of
school boards or school officers The commits
sioners have been walked up, public attention
has been aroused, the thought of parents com
manded, and the iron bands of the "system"
somewhat rudely shaken. Great good will re-
suit if everybody, commissioners officers,
teachers, parents, newspapers, will stop all
quarrel because of possible pride of opinion,
will each accept the lessons taught, and work
tremendously and with sound judgment in the
future conduct and development of the
schools

In his record of tyranny and oppression, of
silent contempt toward appeals from his sub
ordinates and Of heartleSS indifference to their
wants. Mr.. French has succeeded in surprising
many men who have appeared to take pride
in making themselves obnoxious to men who
were placed under them in different lines of
duty. What he will show in defense we do not
know. but it is safe to say that he will never be
able to remove the unfavorable impression that
has been made upon the men in the postal
service.
Indianapolis People
1t looks very much as though Superintendent
French would have to walk Spanish" If one
half that is testified to by those formerly in his
employ be true, his conduct for tyranny and op-
position puts to blush that of the old-time slave
driver If French is not made to walk Spanish. y
he will probably have the good sense to resign
and thus take 'French leave" The boys are
pouring hot shotinto him.

If half the things alleged by postal clerks and

THE will of a distinguished Brooklyn gen
tleman, whose death last week was followed
by all the eulogies and honors the public and
the church could bestow, is curious, in view of
the geographical fact that Brooklyn is not
situated in Utah. According to this docu-
ment two wives of the late distinguished citi-
zen are comfortably and equally provided for
out of the rather ample share of worldly goods
he possessed. Only one difference or distinc
lion is made in the requests to the relicts. To
the first wife certain sum per annum is de-
yised, the same to be paid over to her during
life without stipulation. To the second, an
equal amount is bequeathed, with the little
proviso added that such benefit shall cease in
the event of her marriage Whether the
testator meant to display greater affection for
number one or number two is a question
which, perhaps, cannot be treated fairly by
debating society outside of Brooklyn or Salt
Lake; but.an impression will probably prevail
that the eulogized citizen will not size up so
high on the other side.

ALEXANDER JEFFERSON, colored sentenced
on Friday at Brooklyn to be hanged for muir
der, made strong and touching plea for his
life, but without avail. He said: II was UNI
der the influence of liquor when 1 committed
this crime. was not in my proper senses at
the time. Life is given unto man from God,
and l cannot see how the taking of my life is
going to better the condition of those | am
accused of killing They are dead; am not"
The same argument has been advanced by
those opposed to capital punishment on princi-
pie. 1t is faulty, because the logic is false 1t is
a sound principle in both human and divine law
that he who wantonly sheddeth mans blood by
man shall his blood be shed. To take mans
life according to law will not restore that of his
victim, nor will it make good the loss to So
ciety but it may have restraining influence
tionably puts the man hanged beyond the
possibility of committing other murders. The
kill fellow man would possibly do so again if
opportunity offered or inclination suggested,
and immunity from punishment would be
preiudicial to the best interests of society A
man whose moral nature is so warped that he
would kill man without cause is unfit to live,
and is menace to the community.

The great Commonwealth of Kentucky the
of Clay, and the basis of operations for Henri
Watterson, is represented before the world by
Legislature now in session. The bringing
forth of new United States senator we'll
nigh killed this mountain of lawmaking
power, but having survived that ordeal, it
now turns to grapple with other weighty mat
ters. Among the bills in consideration on
Friday last was one to allow Nero Givens a
negro medicine man, of Lyon county, to prac
tice his profession" under special exemption
from the provision of the laws against en-
piricism, including the remarkable preamble
by Givenss remedies. After an hours debate,
participated in by the best oratorical talent of
the Senate the measure passed by tie vote,
the presiding officers vote being in favor
of the relief asked Another measure
of equal Importance was bill empowering
G. B. Woodcock to peddle clocks in Warren
county without license" A third bill was
one to restore to the statute books the act
offering reward for the scalps of predatory
animals that infest certain portions of the
State. In support of this bill, the representa-
tive from Letcher county makes the following
original but conclusive argument, that must
convince all of the imperative necessity of
prompt action: -
"The repeal of the scalp law and general
ignorance are running my county. Thief foxes
have become so numerous since the State
ceased paying rewards for scalps that we can't
raise any more chickens and without chickens
we can't get any Methodist preachers to come
among us. The ignorance of the county led
to the passage there of local option law,
since which it is hard to get any whisky, and
without whisky we can't get any Baptist
preachers. These are the only kind of preach
ers known up there. l say that these laws are
running my county,"

THE assistant superintendent of the schools
charges the superintendent with retaining in
competent teachers in order to please com
missioner, but the board does not think it
worth investigating. The board appears to
think the charge is of no moment.-News.
The board did the right thing in declining
an investigation. The revelations of the past
two weeks have shown that the feeling of the
assistant toward the superintendent is and
has been such as to render practically worth
less any such a charge as this, wherein, after
all, the question of competency OF incompe-
tency must be matter largely of opinion. II
has been shown that the schools have been
conducted with two heads, and those heads in
stead of being harmonious have been hostile
The duty of the board now is to try the one
headed plan for time and to give the superin-
teNdent the heartiest and most cordial support

put ballot in the black mans hand, and it
cannot be taken away. 1t promised to pay
every dollar of the public debt with good
money, and now the Democratic party, which
once declared that it could not be done, is of
the opinion that we have been paying it too
fast, and must stop. 1t proclaimed specie re-
sumption for Jan. 1, 1879, and the people had
learned to have so much confidence in the
wisdom of the party that they began it a
month ahead of time. And now the Repub-
ican party has committed itself to a wisely
regulated protective tariff. Under its provis
ions the industries of America have grown
strong, while those of England have steadily
lost ground. We believe that under the mod
fed tariff the same good influences will
operate, despite Democratic opposition and
prophecies of ruin. The Democratic party
will again rely on ignorance and prejudice,
and will again be beaten in its desperate at
tempt to gain Control of the White House"
