In speaking of Ohio, the Commission
er Tof Education, Washington, d. CT
says, "The country schools suffer from
the want of competent supervision" !"
which is manifest to every intelligent
observer the shame of Ohio law
makers be it said. In speaking of nor
NAL schools, he says, "Stste normal
schools, established either as separate
institutions or as departments of unlr
versities or colleges, are reported from
all the States save Delaware, Louisiana,
Nevada, ONO and South Carolina. "
How does Ohio, the third State in the
Union, like the company she is in :?
Without either supervision of her coun-
try schools, or any provision for the
training of her teachers, she is falling
rapidly to the rear ia the educational
race. 1t is high time for our legislators
to wake up. How long shall indifference
and political jealousy stand in the way
of the best education of our children?

THE Second Comptroller thinks the
Signal Bureau has been dealing out
weather with too lavish hand lately.
aud distributing more than the country
needs or that the law allows. In many
towns in different parts of the country
special weather flags have been hoisted
on the receipt of predictions wired from
Washington, said flags having been pur-
chased by the towns themselves on the
recommendation of the Bureau. The
Second Comptroller has decided that the
law does not permit the paying for these
special kilograms, and that they must be
stopped. The people in towns like St.
CIairsville, who have been indulging in
the luxury of seven handsome flags
to tell them what kind Of weather te
expect, will now have to take daily pa
pers and read the bulletins therein, or
else depend on local weather prophets.

THE President sent special message
to the Senate on Monday, in which he
gives that body bis views on the powers

give up papers in regard to removals

mate of his official duty. But the Senate
isIunited in its demands for some reason
for removals beside the mere term "of-
fetal partisanship."

The Ogden News well says:
f'Our sister Territory, the Gem of the
Mountains, has again set a good ex-
ample of how to pull the poison fangs
out of the boa constructor dubbed
Mormonism, and how to hew the hy-
dra heads so that they don't grow out
again. A dispatch from Oxford, Idaho,
states that the Hedging son of the Ua-
derground Vice Gerent of the Kolob
God, yclept Apostle John w. Taylor,
was arrested at Pocatello, on a war
rant, charging Taylor with melting q
rebellion against the laws of the
United States in Idaho. This is a
move in the right direction"

ESPECIAL" LEGISLATION.

July Seth, 1885, the President ap
proved an act of Congress that s'pro.
hibits the passage of local or special
Jaws in the Terrific les of the United
States" and for other purposes. This
Jaw begins by declaring that "the
Legislatures of the Territories of the
United States, now or hereafter to be
organized, shall not pass local or spe-
cial laws in any of the following emu.
merated cases. Then follows a long
list of cases, among which is a law
"cresting, increasing or decreasing
fees, percentages or allowances of
public officers during the term for
which said officers are elected or ap-
pointed"
Considerable comment and some
misunderstanding prevail among the
people in regard to the meaning of
this law, particularly among those who
desire the next Legislature to alter
the fees and enoluments of certain
county officers. If it is borne in mind
that the law only applies to Especial
or local" laws, there will be no diff
Guilty in interpreting the meaning of
this law. The Legislature can pass,
if 1t sees fit, law applicable to all
the counties of Idaho, but not to a
particular county or particular mum
Der of counties and inapplicabIe to
others. This is the meaning of the
act of Congress, and this is all there
is to it. For example, an act of the
Idaho Legislature lessening or in.
creasing the fees of Alturas county's
officers, and not applicable to those OF
all other similar officers in the Terri
tory, would be void. But such an
act, if applicable to all such officers in
the Territory, would not be "local
or special" law, and would be valid.
