The Blair Education Bill has passed
the Senate. The ~ Y. Tribune favors
it with these sensible words: 1.-THE
country spends $24,000,0O0 yearly in
an entirely fruitless effort to circulate
silver dollars that are not wanted.
Certainly it ought to be able and will
ing to spend the third or half of that
sum yearly in building broader basis
of popular intelligence for the future
prosperity of the nation. Nothing is
more unreasonable than penuriousness
about lust and wise expenditures.

DIR. Hart thus speaks of the impor-
tance of essay writing: The ability to
express ones knowledge readily and
clearly, which is only another name for
skill in composition, both helps in
acquiring knowledge, and multiplies
almost indefinitely the value of it when
acquired. The scholar who has this
skill can thereby learn faster every
other branch of study, and at the same
time can turn every other branch to
greater account. Why should a part
of education of such primary impor-
lance be so generally neglected."

for a State that did not vote for him. In
exactly the same erratic line is the
fact that he signed the bill restoring
one Billings to the pension-roll, from which
he was dropped in 1860 because he entered the
confederate service. This he did after veto
ing many bills giving meager pittance Of
pension to deserving Union soldiers, often ac-
companying the veto with brutal and uncalled-
for reflections on the character of the men
who had done so much for their country.
That he could have known that Billings had
been dropped from the rolls for some good
reason is made plain by the fact that he was
citizen of South Carolina. and that his PEN
sion ceased when the war of the Rebellion
broke out These two facts would have sug
gested the cause of the trouble, but the Presi-
dent did not see fit to investigate the case, or,
having investigated it. did not dare or care to
stand in the way of a confederate veteran and
his pension. Had Billings been Union sol
der, the probabilities are that he would have
been insulted by the President and had his
pension disallowed.

DENYING CONNELL's CHARGES.
An Interview with Sergeant Brainard About
the Greedy Expedition.

New Bedford Mass Special.
Sergeant D. L. Brainard, of Arctic fame, is
visiting William Bradford in Fair Haven In
regard to the charges recently made By Maurice
Connel relating to the internal history of Lieut..
Greelys arctic expedition Sergeant Brainard
said in an interview: I'm my opinion
Connelrs statements are inspired by I'M
worthy motives, because of fancied wrongs"
He declared that Connell was almost
a dead weight in the expedition. In the
final scenes of restitution Connell was of
the strongest of the remaining men, but he did
little toward gathering what food the country
afforded. He was pugnacious, irascble and am
bilious, but had no particular ability. AS TO
what Connell says about there being good deal
of doubt about the party consisting OF Lockwood,
Brainard and an Eskimo attaining so high lati
tude as thoy pretend, and that they were
inexpert in the of the instruments,
and that they allowed the chronometer
to run down, Brainard says that they were
thoroughly familiar with the instruments and
that their notes were worked up after returning
to the main party by the astronomer of the ex-
petition, Israel, who made out that they had
gone to latitude 83o "a. about four miles north
beyond the highest latitude attained by Marx.

THAT the Presidents vetoes are hasty and

former with a population of 10000 and the
latter with $1,000. He now stultifes himself

No better idea Of the utter depravity Of the
wretches who have imbibed anarchistic ideas
can be had than from the things that amuse
them. Take the incident in court during the ex-
tract was read from one of the papers preaching
anarchy, which was regarded as 50 humorous by
the prisoners that they laughed immediately
while it was being read, and it said that Mrs
Parsons, the wife of one of them laughed so
heartily at the "humor" of the thing that the
tears coursed down her cheeks. This very
funny article read as follows:
Dynamite is the stuff and don't you for
get it. Enough of it to fill your vest pocket
has the power to do more for the wage slaves
of this country than bushel basket full of
ballots. Fill piece of gas-pipe with some Of
this good stuff plug up the ends, insert fuse
and cap, touch it off and introduce it among
lot of rich loafers and there will be cheer
full scattering of unemployed capital that will
be felt for some time. This is the stuff to use
on the floating population which earns its
bread by the sweat of other mems brows.'
The impression has gone abroad that these
fellows will not regard these incendiary arti-
cles so funny after the jury has passed on
their guilt. Not to hang them would be the
greatest mistake of the time. 1t is the duty
of the people of Chicago to see that they are
hanged, and that in the interest Of the work
ingmen and of all innocent and law-abiding
people an end be put to all such humor
They should be taught that teaching methods
of assassination is not to be tolerated in this
free country.
