Yesterday morning the Rev W. L. Gree
spoke in the estminster Presbyterian
Church on the subject Of Education as COM
pared with the Gospel He was sent by the
General Assembly of the Presbyterian
Church for the purpose of raising funds TO
assist in sustaining a church school at
Poynette, Wis Mr.. Green possesses a re-
markable delivery and speaks entirely with
out notes. The text wa1 taken from the
sixth chapter of the sixth, seventh and
eighth verses of Deuteronomy. He said:
There are three chief agencies or books
for the education of Gods children
the first, the book of nature, which
corresponds with science, books of but
science are only reflections OF this book vast
which is written over with God own
fingers. 10 Is most important that We
should study Science. The second Is the
book of providence, rescrpt OF which We
call History This also II Is important
that we should study. But the third. and
by far the most important Is the study OF
the book of Revelations for this Is Gods
own word and in this He himself teaches
US The human soul possesses three
faculties the intellect, moral nature and
conscience, or heart. In order that God
children may educate these three faculties
properly, they must employ the books OF
science, history and above all the book of
Revelations. Il is IN the nature of the
case that no solitary child can become
truly educated unless Gods own word be
made the chief text. RauOnalism IS childs
play. Agn0sticism is the only conclusion
that a skepuc can reach. The book Of
Revelations brings the deepest thoughts to
easy comprehension Of children, and all
education in which the word of God is not
used. is false 4 young man may go
through the best schools IN the
country and vet have DO knowledge
Of the Bible The more learning the modern
boys get, the bigger fools they become At
the General Assembly of the Presbyterian
church some time ago, this statement
was made. THE secularized condition
Of education is difting the country
rapidly into materiahsm and in
fidelity Look at the method pursued
IN the instruction Of heather children and
IN the instruction of our children. Heather
children are taught 10 repeat chapter after
chapter of the Bible Missionaries employ
this method altogether among the heathen.
We must feed the soul as well as the mind.
We have no other means Of instructing our
children IN religion than in our Sunday

GIBBS DEFEAT.

We can all now moralize upon the prob
able reasons why Barney has been laid
upon the shelf and his Young ambition
blasted at least dampened by the cold
shoulder of the people. Two facts distin-
guished the candidacy of Mr.. Gibbs and
threw light on the causes of his defeat.
He was undoubtedly the champion of the
Knights of Labor. Not merely that, but,
as his articles published in the public
prints show, he was, to some extent, the
apologist or pretended apologist, of the
communism which disgraced this state
last spring. This cannot be denied, now
that the purposes for which his declara'
tions were made no longer exist
Again, Mr.. Gibbs, as Lieutenant
governor of the state, may have
been considered. and was considered
an involuntary representation of the pre-
sent gubernatorial administration, and il
of the administration then of its policies
There is no doubt that the dark-lantern
ism which attached to the Gibbs candidacy
did create a prejudice against him in the
public mind which was reflected in the
convention before which he was defeated
and but for which enough strength might
have been drawn from the Wellborn ant
Beckham factions to have secured the
nomination.
And if Mr.. Gibbs was considered to re
present the administration, there is reason
to believe the prejudice against him was
added to by the belief in the public mint
that the administration, not the laws
is responsible for the swind
ling of the school fund, on
of millions of dollars. We have just seer
that every prominent member of the lane
board, who has offered fer Office, has beer
ghtered-Walsh and Swain, for in
stance, and excepting Lubbock, who es
capped by the mere force of popularity, ant
the fact he had no opposition. 1t is no
improbable that the same feeling agains
the administration, in the matter of tn,
execution of the land laws, operated
against its representative, Mr.. Gibbs, il
his recent Waterloo at Waxahachie.

DOES SHERMAN RULE THE woRLDs

Gen. Sherman is retired army officer
of the United States. During the civil
war Gen. Sherman was big man and led
a memorable and cruel raid through the
south After the war he was the COM
mander- in-chief of the army of the
United States for many years. But all
this, while making Gen. Sherman an
exceedingly important parsonage in
his own estimation does not defy
him, nor does it guarantee him
the right to turn dictator and rule the
u lited States, and what else is of this
world in a CONTEMPORARY lordly way
Gen. Sherman, with all his greatness
makes mistakes, and none ever was more
grievious than the following interview
taken from the Army and Navy Register
of August last. The interview reads:
General Sherman never minces his
words. When asked last week at Port
land what he thought of the Cutting case,
he said: You may say that Cutting is a
lluilC VIM hC
can carry the jurisdiction of the United
States in his pocket wherever he goes,
and that is all there is of it." OF the ac-
ton of GOV. Ireland, he said; IF Gov.
Ireland attempts to act for the federal
government and commits an overt act, we
will try him, and hang him for treason.
The question of state rights was settled
years ago"
An unbiased judge might say that Gen.
Sherman was the ass. Men OF vastly more
ability than Sherman, men of the calibre
of Bayard, say there is decidedly more in
the Cutting case than the lordly Sherman
allows.
Nor do we think Governor Ireland would
ask Sherman's consent if he contemplated
such a foolish act as Sherman suggests.
A resort to such conduct could only find
endorsement in such one sided partisan
and befuddled reasoning as is at the source
of Sherman's arrogant boast, "We will try
him." Who is "we?" and candidly what
would ''we" do about it if Texas should
decide to aveuge her wrongs? Sherman
is either in his dotage or he is planning
for Blaine campaign. When will some
men realiza their day is past?

CURE FOR PILES.

Piles are frequently preceded by q
sense of weight III the back, loins and
lower part of the abdomen, causing the
patient to suppose he has some af-
lection of the kidneys or neighboring or,
gans. At times, symptoms of Indigestion
are present, fatulency, uneasiness of the
stomach, etc. moisture like perspira-
ton, producing very disagreeable itch
ing, after getting warm, is a common at
tendant. Blind, Bleeding and Itching
Piles yield at once to the application of
DR.. Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which acts di-
rectly upon the parts affected, absorbing
the Tumors allying the intense itching,
and effecting,a permanent cure. Price so

AUSTIN, with her tine new hotel, and an.
other railroad connection with st. Louis
will take bound to the front which will
rejuvenate all of our energies and give
our industries new lease on enterprise.
1t will not be long, with these advantages
crowding in, before manufacturing indus
tries will spring up, and Austin's prosper
ity will be full to overlooking.

The proposed reorganization of the
Knights OF Labor GU the plan of the
United States government will, no doubt
strengthen the organization, either for
good or evil. 1t will throw more power in
the hands of the grand master workman,
which will be all well while such man as
Powderly is at the head of the order, but
ominous to the peace of society if such a
villain as Martin Irons should reach the
pOsitiOn.

His hesitation has transformed rivalry
between Canadian fishermen and their
neighbors in New England into an inter
national controversy. Now the embar-
rassment of a trade pursued by compare
lively very few of our citizens is extended
to another affecting directly or indirectly
the whole country. 1t is lesson in the
necessity of attending to little things, and
it applies no less to the affairs of private
life than to the dignifed matters of state.

ALEXANDER's POSITION.

There is an air of mystery about the
position in which the prince of Bulgaria
has placed himself, since his return to his
subjects. His course has been slngularly
at variance with the distinguished gal
lantry, undoubted courage and military
ability with which Alexander conducted
the war against King Milan, of Servia.
In that war Alexander appeared to the
nations who we're spectators of the com
bat, as leader worthy of the fame he ac-
quired in a few short months, and an ag
gressive campaign that ended In the
humiliation of the Servian power. Now
Prince Alexander is acting the pitiable
role of chief who has been, like Richard
III, frightened at shadows. The bold gen.
eral who drove the Servian army out
of his territory, now covers at single
word from the Russian despot. Few
rulers in history have had a more magniii-
cent opportunity for assumingthe role of
greatness than Alexander. But he seems
determined to throw the opportunity
away and earn contempt, when he might
have commanded worldwide applause,
had he stood up and had backbone enough
to face Russia and precipitate general
war-as will probably be the case, anyway
rather than so tamely yield.
ANOTHER CONNECTION WITH ST. LOUIS.
Austin now has an opportunity to do
what she has longed for these many years.
She can now by determined effort open
another line through to st. Louis, and the
north, which will be an incalculable ad-
vantage as competing line to the vast
Gould system. The wealthy Illinois Cen
trail company have gotten possession of
the Texas and st. Louis from Waco to
Cairo, connection has been made from
Cairo to st. Louis, and it now only re-
mains to close the gap at this end of the
line. As before announced, the Texas and
st. Louis will soon be changed from a
narrow to standard guage and it will thus
do away with the prejudice against mar
row guage. The question is, how TO get
to Waco? The following suggests an easy
closing of the gap; Our own narrow
guage to Burnett, which will soon be
changed TO standard guage, will be the
bridge to help us over. From Burnet to
Lampasas the distance is about twenty
five miles; from Lampasas to Gatesvi lie
about thirty-fv miles; and there is road
from Gainesville to Waco already in opera
ton. Thus the short distance of sixty
miles is all that shuts Austin out from an
oher connection with ST. Louis, aside

EDITORIAL COMMENTS.
NEW YORK HERALD.


The details which are arriving from
Charleston show that the damage done by
the earthquake was not overestimated in
the early anu general dispatches save in
the particular of the loss of life. Hap
pilv the number of the killed is abridged
by these later reports. But almost the
whole city will require rebuilding. The
people, however, are not disheartened by
the ruin. They are quietly displaying
the same patient courage which dis
tinguished them after the wreck of the
fortunes of Charleston by the civil war.
They are not merely entitled to sympathy
they command admiration and respect.

The first utterance of the car on the
situation in Bulgaria is anything but en-
couraging. He seizes the occasion as a
friendly letter from Prince Alexander, to
warn Bulgaria and Europe that his policy
the policy of his father of Russia-is
postponed, but not abandoned.
The car speaks with more pointed
purpose still. His letter, so far from sug-
gesting disguise, is revelation. Ostensi'
bly, an evasion, skilfully constructed, it is
an attitude boldly assumed. The osten-
sible message of Russia to the prince as
sures him that she will respect his efforts
to restore order in Bulgaria. The real
declaration of the czar warns Alexander
that he is in the way, and that the sooner
he stands aside the better will it be both
for himself and for the interests of the
people who have called him back.
The position of Alexander in this new
turn of affairs becomes profoundly pa
thetic. If he can carry out his promises
ulations under his care, then Europe, ever
Russia, ought to support him. But if the
prince cannot rise to the occasion, his flu
ture threatens to be full of political in
trigue, and not even wanting in persona
calamity,

from the incidental close connection with
Lampasas and Gainesville, and with the
assurance that Austin will be the terminal
point of this new trunk line.
But that is not all. At point about
twenty miles, more or less, from Gates
VILE our connection crosses the Gulf, Colo
RADIO g. Santa Fe, thus opening up the
territory and connections of the extensive
Atkinson, Topeka d Santa Fe system,
which we have so long sought for in vain
By one jump of sixty miles, we open new
connections with st. Louis and Chicago,
on the one hand, and the giant stock mar
kets of Kansas City on the other. All
this to be gained by little hard work,
and, perhaps, bonus, which in the end
will bring millions into Austin.
San Antonio is straining every muscle
to extend the San Antonio d. Arkansas
Pass road to Waco, and thus take advan-
tage of this beneficial connection, and if
San Antonio can bridge over the two hun
dred and odd miles from that city to
Waco, is Austin to hold back for sixty
miles, with the rich plum almost within
her grasp?

COURIER JOURNAL.

The letter of Prince Alexander to the
Gar should be received as the best real
service which that royal muttonhead coulc.
have rendered the people of his genera
ton. A pulpy person, with nothing in
his favor except the blood which two
other people put into his veins, he was
pushed by circumstances into the front of
movement which would have Jared quite
as well with any other princeling as the
puppet of diplomacy as Alexander, and
this person has established so much
credit with the public for what was sup
posed in him, that the public press has
been latterly spOuting about him as hero
and patriot and ,tatesman. Alexander S
letter opportunity pricks the little bubble
of his reputation, and kindly permits US to
see what he is. Therein is his best service to
the world, as it helps to clear up the fog
about things Bulgarian, and enables us to
see some of them, at least, more distinct
ly. If tie letter of this royal lick-spittle
fails to stir up another revolt and again
eject him beyond the Balkans, it can
mean nothing else than that the Rns,O-
philes are SO strong as to mtimloate tie
Russophobists. and that. notwithstanding
the late feint of popular patriotic out
burst at his reception, he came back as
the secret agent of Russia. His prompt
pardon of the officials who betrayed him
is exactly in line with the latter alterna-
tive, and the language of his letter can
only be construed as left-handed def
ance of the sultan, his master, under the
protection of the car.

PHILADELPHIA EVENING BULLETIN.
A dispatch from Montreal states tina
the Canadian authorities have issued
circular which threatens very materially
the cOasting trade between the United
States and Canada. Custom officials are
reminded that it is unlawful to import
goods from any other than Canadian
ports in any vessel not duly registered and
having its certificate of registry IN board.
Only British vessels, the circular declares.
or those belonging to foreign powers hav-
ing treaties with Great Britain, can COM
pete in the coasting trade of Canada, and
i'll future vessels from the United States,
there being no treaty with that country,
must not be allowed to go from one Cana
dian port to another tor cargoes. The
most stringent means are ordered to en-
force these rules 1t IS explained that
owners of barges entering Canadian
waters from lake ports with cargoes too
heavy to touch at Kingston usually tran
snip their freight and do not register un-
til they reach Montreal. Thus another
important industry dependent to some
extent ON the mutual exchange of COM
nerclal courtesy, and having no connec-
hon whatever with the fisheries dispute is
embarrassed by the stupid diplomacy of
,ur state department. 1t is to be hoped
hat the pressure of the sections concerned
our coast and lake carrying trade will
,,e sufficient to impress Mr.. Bayard with
ne enormous culpability of his delay. !
