Didn't Know Sherman Was Loaded.

To THE EDITOR: was very glad to see Gen.
Sherman's Indictment Of JEFF. Davis appear
first in THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE. jeff must
have thought that Sherman had grown so old
that he had lost his teeth, but he must know
by this time that the old man not only shows
his teeth but can also do good job of biting
when he feels like it.-ALBERT 8. CALI, Ne

When one is sick advice is plenty, but not
always the best. A good rule is to accept only

Experience Meeting.
FREE SCHOOL SYMPOSIUM.

The Editor steps aside this week to let the
bright and thoughtful young people OF 1HE
TRIBUNE family have a better chance to ex-
press themselves, only putting IN word now
and then TO see that the Conversation Club Is
giving good attention, and that there is not too
much whispering going on IN the corner. It
is certainly a pleasure for the fathers and
mothers to take their turn IN listening to such
words of wisdom from those who In themselves
arc practical proof of the value of our American
free schools in developing character and ma
turing opinions. We will let Louise" Penn
sylvania veterans daughter, open the discus
sion, after which a few comments from others
will follow:
DEAR CONVERSATION CLUB: ] think In compar-
ing the different nations can fail TO see the
great advantage free schools have been TO ali, es-
peciaIy 10 the lower classes Take those countries
which have free schools the peasants remain In
ignorance from generation TO generation; only the
wealthy can afford TO educate their children. On
the other hand. take Germany, which has COM
pusory school law. Her sons are well educated,
rich and poor having equal advantages.
And own fair Republic, how many of her
most learned men and wlsest rulers have received
their education in the public schools See what an
improvement has been made in the South since the
introduction Of free schools there. America cannot
afford to have her future voters grow up In leno-
rance.
There are many who say, the society in the
common schools is so mixed, our little ladies aud
gentlemen will become so rude, associating with
coarser natures and ill-mannered children" If a
child's home influence is what 1t should be, this
association do but little harm. The child will
inevitably in after years meet with all sorts of
characters. Will he not better understand their
natures, know better how to deal with them than If
he had been zealously guarded from all association
with them?
Will not the sweet, gentle hammered little chill
dren exert good influence over the bad ones? ?
After all it is the power of example which exerts
the greatest influence the masses, and we have
plenty OF examples in the public school, both GOOD
and bad" Louise" Factoryville, Pa

Clear the Field for 1856.

The mayoralty election will be the absorb
ing topic for the next four weeks, immedi-
atey after which, the measurement of vari-
Gus candidates will be taken for the Guber-
material chair. 1t can be said of two candi-
dates who have been mentioned prominently
for this position within the past three
months, that one is moribund aud the
other badly winged.
Mr.. William Bright, our venerable fellow
townsman, has avery strong personal fol-
lowing and as New Castle county will be
entitled to the next Democratic nominee for
Governor, the name of Mr.. Bright is being
already eanvassed in this connection.
Mr.. Bright's ripe business experience
coupled with his generous impulses and well
marked affability, would make him an ex-
ceptionally strong candidate.
The Wilmingtonian., 1885-05-16
How Mr. Conrad is Viewed by the
Philadelphians.
1.-THE Press

(The Press)
Mr.. Henry G. Conrad, whom the Repub.
licans of Wilmington have chosen by vote as
their candidate for mayor, will, in all pro-
liability, be elected. Wilmington is often a
Democratic city, but the prominent Demo-
cratic candidates mentioned for nomination
have no apprecable measure of Mi. Conrad's
popular strength. He knows personally
more people of the Delaware Peninsula than
any other man within its limits. Inheriting
wealth, excellent social position and the
sound consi rvatism which springs from the
sense of responsibility, he is unaffectedly
simple in his life and democratic in his rela,
tions with his fellow,men. He has done
more to promote the education Of the neg
roes in Delaware than any single man. For
number of years he has paid regular visits
to the schools and hoIcoufaf the colored
.-aa =, - = ~ Ssasa a: ....s.s,
word and deed in the pursuit of knowledge,
often in the face Of public indifference or
opposition. He has had experience in mum
icipal affairs, having at one time been pre-
sident of the Board of Education of vii
mngton, and being at present the president
of the City Council. Besides bis popularity,
experience and ability, lie is emphatically a
man in whom people put their trust. He
stands for what is best in widely separated
spheres Of life, and his fellow citizens will
serve themselves by expressing publicly at
the polls the sincere regard and esteem
which they feel for him.
