cinnati, st Louis, and even in some smaller
cities like Lawrence and Lowell, Mass,
there are nourlshing evening high
schools, some Of which have existed for
many years. Cincinnati incorporated
an evening high school into her pub
lie school system something like
twenty years ago, and It is over
dozen years since the evening high school
Of Boston was established. The evening
high school Of New York Is described as
10 veritable college ~ conducted
on the most liberal PLAN" and both in that
city and in Brooklyn the establishment of
second institution Of the same kind is under
consideration. Evening drawing schools
have been established In number OF
places, and something has been done in the
direction of providing for technical instruc-
ton, for which, however, larger and more
liberal provisions are in contemplation in
several cities.
We entertain the hope that the board Of
commissioners rs now constituted will take
more just and adequate view Of the night
school question than has hitherto prevailed
in that body; while members Of Congress,
who know what is being done elsewhere
and appreciate the urgent public necessity
for more earnest and general activity in the
diffusion of intelligence among the people,
can hardly underrate the Importance OF set
ting good example here, where Congress
possesses the exclusive power Of legislation.
National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1886-04-03

AS was expected, the opposition to home
rule intensifes as the cause nears victory.
AS the number and influence Of its friends
increases, the mnlignity of its lnveterate enc
mics becomes more and more pronounced.
This is the history Of all great reforms.
Progress 10 quite as surely indicated by the
growing zeal of the opposition TO any
movement as by the increasing confidence
Of its supporters.
Whether home rule shall come this year
or next, or even further on, its advent can
not be long deferred That Mr.. Gladstone
will be able to get his proposed bill through
the present house, in spite Of the treachery
Of Chamberlain and Trevelyan, there is no
very strong reason TO doubt. That such q
measure will be accepted by the lords.is
open to serious doubt. II the lords refuse
and persist In refusing TO pass the bill,
there must be o dissolution and an appeal
to the country on the direct issue Of home
rule for Ireland. We sincerely believe the
result Of such campaign would be VIC
tory for Ireland and the Irlsh-a decree by
the court Of last resort, the sovereign peo-
pie, that Ireland shall have the right OF
local self.government.
Such decree would be obeyed by the
peers. A home rule bill passed by house
elected on that issue-a house instructed by
the people TO pass it-would have to be ac-
cepted by the peers, or their end Of the
British legislative mechanism would be
abolished. They know, by experience, how
far they can go and not meet destruction.
1t is not very improbable that they may, in
the course OF the next few weeks, become
convinced that they will touch the danger
line II they force an election. Should they
be taught by observation, by manipulation
Of the public pulse, to look at the situation
in that light, they will gulp down the bitter
draught, and home rule will be an accom-
| pllshed fact before midsummer.
1t seems but the other day when Parnell
and his brave associates were treated as
pests Of society, hunted down and dragged
to prison. Now they make or unmake
parties and dictate legislation. Their
cause has the sympathy of the best minds
and hearts in England. The American
people, almost as whole, are with them.
Friends of liberty and lovers of justice all
over the world are bidding their cause God
speed. The day of deliverance draws nigh.

Tho yirrInin Appointments.

Our friends In Virginia claim that in con-
sldering the nominations made by the
President the Republicans In the United
States Senate ought to make an exception
in the case Of that state because OF the rep
reservations made by the "very hungry and
very thirsty" best people, and the action of
the President himself. 1t was everywhere
announced that every Republican In Vir.
glnia who held office should be instantly
dismissed, because they were all morally
and mentally unfit. for public trust. On
this subject the Valley Hr9iaian says:
The threadbare, seedy sclons of the first
families" banded together in a raid upon tho
departments and clamored for what they con.
sidered their birthright under a Democratic
administration. II mattered not whether they
came from the gutter, the grogshop, or the
store box, there could be no question enter
tanned of their superior qualifications for Off
cial positions, as they royalty laid claim to
being of the "best people and wore the tag of
the Democratic party. That was sufficient In
the eyes of the congressional cabal which sat
in judgment upon the officers and Opportioned
and dispensed the spoils TO the faithful The
guilotine was put in motion and, with lndis.
criminate and relentless fury, almost every
Republican officer in the state was decapi-
tated. Had the reason assigned for this whole
sale slaughter been openly announced as po-
litical, and that the victors were entitled to
the spoils, no one would or should have CON-

The Sumter Advdnce is the name OF a
little weekly newspaper printed at Sumter,
s. G. Though small, as we have stated,
II is a vigorous sheet-a screaming sheet
actually tremendous In its lung power.
Here is sample of what 1t can do almost
any time;
jefferson Davis Is one of the grandest heroes
and truest patriots America has ever produced;
and his name will live aud shine in history
whom his maligners and traduccrs shall have
been long forgotten.
Ifanybody wants to howl over the fact that
this great and good and prosecuted man Is
going to make speech, let them howl.
He is the modest Roman of Thorn all" and
his speech will be worthy of the man, the
people, and the occasion.
Every man, in whose breast there beats a
true southern heart, is proud OF the name of
Jefferson Davis for 1t is the synonym OF all
that is manly, true, noble, and exalted in
human character.
We had almost forgotten that j. Davis
was not as dead as the cause with which
his name is identified. So far as the Ma
TIoNAL REPUBLICAN is concerned 1t is quite
willing that he should rise up and howl
whenever his worshipers want to hear him.
We would prefer, just at this time, to
hear few remarks from Secretary Lamar,
Senator George, or Senator Walthall on
the Carrollton matinee, but II they cannot
express their feelings let Old Man Davis
eulogize the Lost Cause.
1t is to be regretted that Davis is not in
the Senate, for he would not be capable of
such moral cowardice as is shown by the
men who are there with his sentiments but
lacking his courage.

The Alaska Commercial Company.

The President yesterday sent to the
House of Representatives the report of
Gov. swineford, Of Alaska, In regard to
the operations Of the Alaska Commercial
Company. The governor says there is no
such company as the Alaska Seal and Fur
Company, into whose operations he is di-
recte d by the law to inquire, and he sup
poses the Alaska Commercial Company is
the, corporation which Congress had in
mind, but doubts whether he has, under
the law, any right to inquire into the affairs
OF this company. He is inclined to believe
that no definite results can be attained
through an inquiry made from that quar-
ter. As nearly as he could ascertain from
this distance, there is no Just complaint
against the Alaska Commercial Company
In connection with Its operations on the Seal
Islands, leased TO 1t by the government. 1t
would appear from all he can learn that its
reputed monopoly Of the far trade on the
I mainland and islands not leased is only
such as might be expected to follow the
employment of sufficient amount of capt.
tai, to defeat any and all attempts at com
petition. This is a conclusion arrived at
from hearsay evidence only, as there is no
means Of transportation TO enable him to
institute the inquiry seemingly contem-
plated. He suggests II 1t be the intention
of Congress to have inquiry made into the
affairs OF the company, that vessel be pro-
vided by the United States to transport him
to the islands and other places required to
be visited.
