The convention can be trusted to make wise

questions which just now most interest the
people of Virginia. The Republicans nave
made an earnest contest for free Schools ior

schools, and since they regaiDed control nave
withheld $500, 900 long since due IN salaries
to teachers. At the last session OF the
Legislature they relieved seventy deiaultine
tax collectors from prosecution and passed
law to secure to themselves entire
control of the ballot boxes. The result OF that
law was seen in the outrageous frauds recently
exposed in Norfolk County. That will make 1t
uphill work for the Republicans, but they are
united this year and will have no quarreis over
patronage. They have carried the State IN
more than one hard fought campaign. and may
do so again. notwithstanding the shotgun,

IL VIII be interesting 10 note The points
of a very novel bin introduced Ia the
Missouri legislature relating to the
same subject.
There II IL proposed 10 have the
state publish lis own tex books, under

three eminent educators Is to prepare
materials for complete series Of text
books, aud these books, when prepsr-
ed, printed and bound at the exprn- e
Of the state, are to he distributed
among the couuu,s in proportion to
their school populations The book-
are to be furli sbed at cost, with six
per cent. added for the expense Of dis.
trioutlon.
The purpose Of the proposed law is
to break the alleged combination
among school book publi,h,rs, and re-
duca the prices OF books. The plan,
however, does not give indication Of
being a practical one. Something more
than a commission Of "three eminent
educators" Ia required to make good
and instructive school-boOks. Even il
the appointment Of such board should
escape political ii fluence," which
makes party advantage the test for fit
ness, rather than scholarship and ex.
neIience, II would be impossible to get
three men 30 eminent in all the
branches Of learning IA TO be cnmpe
tent to prepare satisfactory works on
all the topics of education which the
curriculum Of public schools, stateu nj
versities and colleges embraces. II
would require that those three mer
should be masters Of literature, bellies

thing that is taught IL
