JUSTIN MCCARTY has written very
pleasing article on The Irishman, favor
able as it is natural it should be, coming
from the pom of Celt and very readable
though it has touch of sadness like
sweet music. The characteristics of the
lrishman are set forth in such manner
as to show the possibilities OF the nation
under circumstances favorable to develop
ment. 1t is the fashion to sheer at the
Irish people As ignorant and unreined.
But lot any people place behind them
the suffering and wretchedness which
the Irish people have endured for 600
years and say whether they would fur
nish any higher type.

La CROSSE elected the Indian Doctor
White Beaver, as it's mayor, over the
regular nominees of the two parties
Tie Indian doctor is character. He is
man of fine appearance but acts like a
crank. He makes loads of money and
at times affects frontier style. though
he generally clothes himself after the
fashion of civilization. He is said to be
very popular among the poorer classes
whom he treats with iberslity. He may
make good mayor although an eccsn-
trio one. He has Indian blood in his
veins and wears his hair extravsgsntly
long.

SOMETHING resembling a riot took place
at Dublin, Cork and Mallow on the &C.
casion of the visit of tho Prince and
Princess of Wales to these places. The
police seemed deterined to keep the ma
tionalists away from the depot when the

naturally exasperated the Irish and some

If there should be war between Eng
land and Russia, it is hardly probable
that Gladstone will remain at the head
Of the former government. If anything
should induce him to it is the fact that
he has been thus far outwitted by the
Russians; outwitted because of Russian
duplicity, and Gladstone's confidence in
the representations of people commits
stoned to speak for Que of the leading
countries of Europe. But he has never
looked upon war As a means for national
aggrandizement. He thinks a nation
can attain It's fullest greatness by cult
waiting the arts of peace.

ONE of the Commissioners of the Beard

ONE of the Commissioners of the Beard
of Education of New York city objects
to educating children in ''vague theories
which will be of 20 use to them" but
demands that they sbe filled with
knowledge that will be of use to them in
the ordinary employments. The ad-
vocstes of higher education, and those
who demand that education be practical
and largely rudimentary have each some
right and some wrong in their views.
Graded schools are not As successful
in giving that practical education, or in
deed in giving their pupils that mental
grasp, which contributes SO much to sue
cess in life, in proportion to the facilities
they enjoy, as country schools are. And
whyl The graded school As rule has
better teachers, and being able to put in
practice division of labor have an advan-
tsge which should give their work pre-
eminent superiority. But the best DIS
ciplined minds como from the common
schools where there is little or no ap-
paratus and seemingly not much to stir
the child's ambition.
The fault lies largely in prescribed
course Of study including some Of the
higher studies which can only be reached
by sighting the elementary branches
and thus forming vicious habit of de.
ing superfnal work. The child is forced
to take up studies for which he has nc
aptitude and to keep pace with the one
whose taste makes the mastery of thai
particular branch a comparatively easy
task. In the country school, the child
is made to feel that it is not his prime
duty to pass the grade e1a mination but
to understand the subject, and because
he is not ''graded" he has given him the
time which his slower comprehension re-
quired. Besides, if he docs take up any Of
the higher studies, it is because his pre-
6ciency in the elementary branches
makes it proper that he should, and no,
because it is part of the regular schoo
work which it is incumbent on him te
perform.
To complete the course il the ambi-
ton of the 'graded" pupil; to learn
! something that is of value is the purpose
Of the boy at school near the cross roads
Each one refers the work he does to the
| object to be attained to determine now
far it goes to the accomplishment of the
end sought. Can there be any question
as to which gives the better discipline
Besides the country child has duties te
perform which give him q feeling of re-
sponsibility that must exercise an in
fuencs on his school work. He devel
opes independence of character, and mo-
having his course marked out for him il
detail, is compelled to make an inventory
of mental stock to determine what he i.
best qualified to do. The higher educa
ton is good if it is sought after the chile
is we'll grounded in the elementary
branches.

The Inter Ocean seems to take the
ground that the governor of Illinois can
not legally appoint successor to Logan
in case of the failure of the legislature
of that state to elect. It cites as pre-
cedent the appointment by the executive
of Vermont of United States senator
when conditions similar to those in Hi
nois prevented the election by the proper
body. The q. s. senate decided by q
non-partisan vote that the person so ap-
pointed was not entitled to seat in that
body.

The state legislature increased the ap-
preparation for the state militia SIS, 900.
The Legislature acted on the principle
that expenses should reach maximum.
There was no demand for the increase.
The militia was not poorly paid for the
services it renders, and it is difficult to
understand the use of these civilian SOL
diers. 1t is simply foolish imitation OF
European countries which need standing
armies but keep them more because il
has proven to be we'll established usage,
than for any actual need which exists.

A ST. LOUIS hotel was the scene of q
sensation on Tuesday by the finding OF
the body of man in trunk. The room
was occupied by two young Englishmen
who appeared to be on intimate terms
and it is believed one killed the other
and packed his body in the trunk. The
discovery was made by the horrible
stencil emanating from the trunk. A
plscard was placed on the body bearing
the words $50 perish ali traitors to tho
great cause" Both men belong to good
families

THE modern method of settling inter-
national difficulties by the friendly medi-
alton Of other powers seems to be ignor-
ed by Russia and England. Indeed ar
bitration never had such hold upon
people as optimists imagined. Those
little questions not of sufficient impor-
lance to justify war will be settled by
arbitration, and the wranglings OF infer
ior powers may also be adjusted in the
same way. But there can be no settle
ment except by war when powerful na-
tions are parties to controversy involv-
ing national dignity or greed of territory.

JUDGE DURHAM, first comptroller OF
tho treasury has decided against allowing
all the deputy marshals pay, who we're
employed in Cincinnati by the notoriou.
Wright during the October election OF
last year. Persons from outside the
state were employed and tho claims OF
these have been rejected entirsly. Many
others not residents of Cincinnati were
appointed and all served for longer time
than was needed. Judge Durham sng-
gssts that in future, marshals be taken
from the precinct in which they are to
serve. The deputy mashal business has
reached the last limit of abuse.

Iii astonishing how corrupt democrats
are in matters pertaining to elections. In
purely business matters nobody asks
whether the person with whom he has
business relations is o democrat or a
republican. There seems to be no reason
why all who are republicans are innocent
as angels, and those opposed be inclined
toward rascality. 1t seems strange that
there should be sudden change of heart
favorable to honesty when democrat
goes over to the other side. But the
republican press when announcing a
democratic victory always gives the in
formation that it was won by fraud.

The war cloud is assuming immense
proportions, and it looks as if neither
nation can well escape accepting war as
necessity. Eugland's policy under
Gladstone has been one of peace. With
less conservative prime minister, war
might be looked upon as certain. Rus
STA s financial condition must also incline
her toward peace. But at present it
looks as if both countries are drifting
toward war. There can't be much doubt
that the Russians are the aggressors.-
General Komaroff moved toward the
Afghan army and demanded that the
Afghans abandon their position. This
they refused to do, when the Russians
opened hostilities. The czar held q
council of war and it was decided to send
forward SO, 600 men.
Neither nation is in the very best con-
dition at home. The Irish people are
disaffected while the Russian nihilists
will delight in making trouble in case OF
= war.
