the man is not altogether unreasonable

duties and devoted nearly all OF her time
to church affairs. Ills most grievous
complaint is that she would moi
Get his breakfast for him. His

of the mother set forth in the bill ot con-
plant.
The woman no doubt was sincere in her
professions, but m.de the mistake that
many others do; that is, confined her re-
ligion to professions and failed to show
the faith in her by deeds. 1t certainly Is
not religion to allow ones husband.to 50

A strange story comes IRON a Penn
svlvania town which recites thatH woman,
who had been mute since birth was sud-
denly given the power Of speech on the
death Of her mother. The queer part OF
the history o! this interesting lady is that
she deLests the society OF men,
ond only found pleasure in the COM
panionship OF those OF her own
sex. Ii she really was mute her aversion
to the sterncr sex is not strange, for no
woman can be happy in the society OF
men unless she can not only talk, but have
the last word. Now that she has recovered
the faculty OF speech tits just possible that
she may change her associations.

IT may we'll be doubted whether one

1T may we'll be doubted whether one
country editor in a dozen has the faintest
knowledge of the grounds taken by po-
litical economists who support protection
! or that they are even familiar with the
| mUrs cuInIuUu anu reasonable principles
OF the great school of economists who
faver free trade? To threaten disaster if
free trade is supported is an appeal to
ones feelings, not to his reason, and
argues for the ignorance or the coward
ice of the writer. To attribute our ma
tional prosperity to protection and to ig-
more all other considerations, is by no
means evidence of a logical mind. To
array columns of figures in support of or
in opposition to protection might be very
valuable as a mental discipline for anna
teur debating societies, but the educa-
tors of public opinion should be philoso-
phical enough to know that truth is not
so easily reached, and honest enough to
express his convictions or his doubts.
Any man with head on him can array
figures to overwhelm an opponent, can
cite instances at variance with general
assertions. But it is one thing to refute
the arguments of opponents, and quite
different thing to establish ones own
case. This is a lesson our editors would
do well to learn. They would not then
make themselves appear intolerant as
we'll as ignorant.

SALISBURY has at length formed cab
met with Sir Stafford Northcote as first
lord of the treasury, and Churchill as
secretary of state for India. The situa-
ton of England is decidedly unsatisfac-
tory. The new ministry has high no
tons of its strength, hates Russia, and
there is reason to fear that breakers are
ahead. The queen is importuuing Glad
stone to lend his support to the new
government, but the sturdy commoner
makes no fattering promises. His
knowledge of English needs is too great,
his line of action too we'll defined, II j
strength of character too inhexible 80
allow him to be cajoled by the blandish-
ments and expostulations of England's
figure head. Nor does he promise to
remain neutral. Though not at the helm
of state he is capable of making his in
fuence felt and he il determined, with
out wishing to be hostile to the new
government, to carry out his convictions
on all great questions while lending sup
port to the government in general way.
Gladstone is a true statesman, and Eng
land may soon regret the change she has
made of the calm deliberate councillor

The Statue of Liberty presented to the
United States by the French Government
was1anded in New York on last Saturday.
This gift of France was warmly received.
and though hitherto the American people
have appeared somewhat Indifferent to
the kindness of our sister republic the
recent transactions show nothing but the
warmest sympathy to exist between the
two nations. The statue now to be
elevated will, next to the Washington
monument, be be most significant shaft
and object of interest in America. The
construction of it was begun about ten
years ago. Portions of 1t were on exhi-
bition at Philadelphia during the centen-
Mil and it took nearly three hundred
cases to contain the parts which have just
been brought over by the Isere.

The first promotion in the Milwaukee
schools under the new rules have Just
been made. The formal written examin
alton has been discontinued and promo.
tions are made on the teachers actual
knowledge of the pupil. Why the sys-
tenn will not work well it is difficult to
conceive. A thorough instructor knows
the capacity and attainments of his
pupils, and set examination is to often
concession to popular prejudice.
Where it prevails as the chief test teach
ers do not study the workings of their
pupils minds and are often surprised at
the markings they have to give. Exam
nations are conducive to examining on
the part of pupils, and the excitement
they cause is often injurious to health
Whether the steps taken by the Milwau-
kee authorities produce good or evil it
certifes marked lack of cofidence in the
existing system. The examination sys-
tenn may not be abandoned without dan
ger, but its modification will certainly be
compatible with educational progress.

THE prospective removal of President
Bascom causes no little excitement il
University circles. The students are 6
unit in his favor, and should he be re-
placed by another man, dissatisfaction
will long prevail. Politicians of the
Reyes stripe may tell them they are toe
young to judge of what president of a
college should be, but conviction they
cannot carry with them. President Bas-
com dares to act out his convictions
while his political opponents dare not
express their reasons for opposing him.
The sooner political managers of educa-
tional institutions are relegated to the
limbo, to which they belong, the better
will it be for those who seek an educa-
ton. Should Reyes succeed in his pres
ent efforts he will doubly deserve the
lasting condemnation of all true friends
of our state university.

The Milwaukee Journal assumes that
the students of the State University do
not know for what purpose they are there.
The only reason assigned is their fond
adherence to President Bascom in his
struggle with the board of regents
This is certainly very hasty conclusion.
The Journal may be anxious to do Justice
to the president of the university. Time
will tell. But there are papers in this
state that await the direction of political
bosses before making any comment on
the actions of the students. A few weeks
ago a Milwaukee sheet published he
fiery resolutions adopted by the students
and passed them over in that issue with
out comment. Subsequently the editors
wrath rh"--a '.~Alf. It is lust possible
that the editor needed time to recover
himself, to investigate the subject and
discourse learnedly on the topic; but
probably there was some politician, some
wise director of affairs too inconveniently
situated when the resolutions were pub
lished.

JAMES Russell Lowell has returned
from England where he has been highly
estimated and honored. Gowell is bril-,
liaut scholar but as an official he has been
too much. given to toadyism. He is
thoroughly English in his views on the
great questions that concern that coun-
try. The liberal policy of the Gladstone
government did not suit him. He thinks
the great statesman made too many con-
cessions to the Irish people, and believes
thai home rule would be impracticable
and disastrous. Basking in the court of
st James, listening to the fattery of
royalty and writing fiue poems may be
all very nice; but it is decidedly the
wrong standpoint from which to take an
intelligent view of Irish affairs. A more
aggressive man is needed to thoroughly
the American people, and to
look after the interests of our citizens
abroad.

SOCIAL EVIL.

The frequent returns of hard times
followed by brief periods OF industrial
prosperity must have cause rot merely
local. not merely temporary, but must
be in some way due to the organization
of society. What is the cause of this
poverty and crime which stalks forth
and shows its naked front3 What is the
Specification of these various schemes
for the regeneration of societyl Are the
evils which exist to be attributed solely
to the ignoronce and improvidence of the
masses2 Are the enlightened free from
error, and has their prosperity been the
result of wise adherence to what alone
is proper? Or has society as a whole

have the panacea at once. Communists
and socialists would supplement the
theory by disseminating individual COM

equal share of the fruits. Man is what

Had our visionary theorists been present
| when differentiation began, they might
have given a wise direction to affairs.
But civilization so-called has advanced
too far to now permit of reversal to any
ideal scheme. Yet there is an important
element of truth in the theories of social
reformers. If man is to live Independent
of other men he has no claim to posi-
ton as social being. The cave of the
anchoret is his fit abode. If he wishes
to be social being he must make a sac
rifice of himself for the interests of So
ciety. He must enter into the sympa-
thies of men, must let them be sharers
of the powers which God has given and
nature developed in him. Is he an in
| ventive genius he should not demand
too much for his labor, should not de-
mand pay for all that nature gave him.
Is he gifted with great intellectual pow
ers, his strength belongs partly to So
ciety. Until the truth of the impeach-
ment made against this sordid, selfish
spirit is recognized; until education can
reach the heart of men and cause them
to look in upon themselves, look out
calmly and sympathetically upon their
neighbors and recognize that they are
the elements of great organism society
reform in any other direction is futile.
The true scientific spirit which can look
impartially at society must prevail and
reform must begin from within. With
out these and with reform men might
start anew, but they would be organically
unfit for the new situation, and things
would soon move on as they did before.
