Let no one be deceived by the special

The unexpected strength shown by
the tories in the elections held in Great
Britain indicates considerable danger to
the Irish cause and must be source of
unquiet to Parnell. Much was to be
hoped from the conservatives if they
needed the Irish vote to give them na-
jorlty on important questions. But if
they have clear majority the Irish need
expect but few favors. The liberals are
the only true friends Ireland has had. but
by strange sxigencies it was best for the
Irish people to defeat their friends and
put their enemies in power but only by
80 small majority as to give the Par
nellites the balance of power and thus
enable them to dictate terms. But their
hope seems lost.

A YOUNG man Of this county had an
experience last Saturday in the city
which occasioned good deal of laughter
at his expense, but be had share of the
fun himself, though he was out IS. A
young man from Sheboygan named
Brown stole coat in that city, picked it
off dummy in front of clothing store
and came to Manitowoc. A young farm
er who had just sold load of grain was
stumped by the thief with proposition
to buy the coat. He had an overcoat
and didn't want to purchase, but finally
told the thief he'd give him S. for the
coat. The money was passed over and
the farmer never dreaming the coat had
been stolen, thought he had made pref
ty good bargain. A short while after.
ward the thief was arrested and the coat
was taken by the officers. The best of
the joke was that people kept pointing
out the farmer as the thief and his friends
made him stand treat every time the
thing was mentioned.

VICE-PRESIDENT HENDRICKS.

Vice President Hendricks died onWed-
nesdsy evening of last week. His death
was quite sudden and wholly unexpected,
and resulted from paralysis of the brain.
Through the summer he felt the need of
rest and spent large portion of it at
quiet places and wholly free from the
demands of business. This seemed to
fully restore his vigor and until attacked
by his last sickness he felt better than he
had for years.
Hendricks was a man of most unswerv-
ing honesty and outspoken in his opin-
ions. He belonged to the old school of
politicians which reverenced party but
worshipped honesty. When he formed
his party ties everything which was best
in the man went to elevate the party. 1t
was not then q medium through which
Office might be secured, but an institu-
ton which symbolized the purpose of its
best members, an agency through which
their craftsmanship might act. This
was Hendricks idea of party and this
explains his devotion to the party to
which he belonged. No blot attaches to
the party through any act of his. He
shed luster upon it by his high character
and his talents. He never looked upon
it as creature to contribute to his am
bition. 1t was temple on whose altar
was to be placed the choicest political
fruit of his manhood.
Hendricks was not a brilliant orator
His style was the harbinger of that most
highly valued by men Of mind to day.
convincing argument, an array of incon-
trovertible facts presented without osten.
tation and depending upon their innate
force for their effect. Those with whom
he came in conflict appreciated his
strength and were never anxious second
time to invite contest. During all the
time he was in public life and active as
became leader and statesman, his name
is not coupled with any questionable
transaction. His is the merit of great
honesty when it was fashionable to dis
card that homely trait in the arena of
national politics. The people of his
state who knew him best loved to honor
him, and the great men who were his
associates bear testimony to his worth as a
man and his merit as patriot.

STATE SUPERINTENDENT GRAHAM has
introduced new feature in school insti-
tute work. He has institutes held for
graded schools conducted by himself,
President Albee and Prof. Stearns. These
Institutes are valuable to the teachers of
graded schools as the instruction has di-
rect reference to work in schools of that
| character. But the question may be
asked, does it not induce the teachers of
graded schools to believe that the regu-
lar county institute deals with matters
Of 40 moment to them2 There can be
no question but that this idea has gained
ground since the Course of Instruction
for country schools has been made the
basis of institute work. And still if the
spirit of the course be properly under
| stood by conductors, the instruction given
at these institutes deals with the prin-
ciples of teaching and is as applicable to
graded as to country schools. The little
details which mark the differentiation

properly are part of the specific work
of the county superintendent (where
assistance is needed) in dealing with
these schools. The principles of pri-
mary, middle or upper form work are
the principles of teaching and it is these
which are to receive attention in the in
stitute if the conductor is competent to
discharge his duty. lis the work to be
done at the institute to be for country
schoolss" is the query propounded fire.
quently by teachers of graded schools
and the manner of asking is indicative of
the opinion that such work can in no way
be of interest to them. To believe that
child in the third reader in the country
is to be taught differently from a child
in the city in the same grade of work, is
a step toward recognizing caste in edu-
cation. If the teachers in these cities
outside the jurisdiction of the county
superintendent could be made to under
stand that their dignity suffers nothing
by attendance at a county institute they
would gain immensely by divesting
themselves of the cloak of fancied super
iority and might imbibe some of the en-
thusiasm of the despised country teacher
who may be lacking somewhat in the
system which markes the graded school.
While it is certain that graded schools
are in need of institutes and Superinten-
dent Graham's work is deserving of the
highest commentator the fact should
not be forgotten that the regular county
teach should profit by its instruction.
