IN commercial travellers is one OF the
most wholesome which has emanated

taxes which, under various devices,
we're levied on those who sold goods
on account OF business houses in other
states were not imposed for the pur-

protection to their own merchants.
They might With equal right levy du-

whose homes and thsir allsare involved by
the said rulings; that capital has become
timid from the fact that such lands have
been refused as security for loans, and this
is retarding and ~iniuring the progress and

A MISPLACED BALLOT,

The Chicago NonS is evidently of the
opinion that the Anarchists of that city
are still an element of danger the
reptile is scotched, not killed. In the
meantime Mayor Harrison Is soundly
berated for not taking heed of the situa.
tion. His first duty should be to notify
1.-The Brothers of the Red Cross" to
cease their harangues against law, life
and property, or disband. The great
trouble is that the members of the
Red Cross Society and kindred associa.
tions, by virtue of the laws which they
despise and threaten to resist, are pos
sessed of the elective franchise; and
politicians in dealing with votes have
to be circumspect. If 1t were possible,
the men who have no respect for con.
stitutions, statutes and ordinances,
should be deprived of their benefits;
and the time may come when the peo-
pie of this country will regret that no
limitations have been placed upon the
freedom of speech and the right of
sUlroge.
The Chicago mob is no more fit to
vote at an election than so many
freshly imported savages from Burmah
or Fiji Islanders. Its leaders are un.
wisely permitted to enjoy privileges
and immunities which they not only
abuse, but which stand them in hand
nc n covar for oil sorts of vinlnnt dom,
onstrations against the public peace.
Without the ballot they would be
readily dispossessed of their influence.
With it they keep INSCRIPTIONS poll
ticians in awe and society in a tremor

INDUSTRIAL ART.

One of the most valuable documents
that ever proceeded from the Senate,
considered as an exhaustive considera-
tion of the subject of which 1t treats,
is o volume Of thousand pages or
more, issued under the auspices of the
Bureau Of Education, and entitled "In.
dustrial and High Art Education in the
United States" by I, Edwards Clarke,
A. M. 1t is impossible, Of course, to
present within the limits Of o news
paper article anything like critical re-
view of the book, but even curcory
glance at its contents shows that it
abounds in information of great public
value, laboriously collated and entirely
out of reach of the community at large.
An explanatory introduction of the
scope and object of the compilation is
followed by series of preliminary
Papers" upon the "Relation of Art to
Education, Industry and National
Prosperity" containing an immense
amount of historical and other data,
which brings Professor Clarke down
to the subject of Drawing in the Pub
lie Schools" which Is likewise COM
prehensively treated and accompanied
with voluminous statistics and numcr-
ous appendices, abounding in illus.
trative extracts from reports, the testi-
mony of the highest authorities as to
the value of Industrial Art and CON
temporary testimony to the best practi-
cal methods. One OF the chief beauties
of the work is a copious index,
whereby the reader, who might other
wise be deferred from exploring such an
extensive mine of facts and opinions,
is readily referred to the particular
topic of which he Is in quest. Another
thing In favor of the book Is It's unlike
ness of appearance to the usual public
document. On the contrary it Is a
neat and handsome volume, and Con.
gress instead of limiting its distribu-
tion to the nineteen hundred copies al.
lowed by law, should make an appro.
priation sufficient to give II general cir
cnlation among the friends OF art edu-
cation all over the country.
1t would be money wisely and adyan-
tageously expended.
