AMERICANISM IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
1t is of the Utmost Importance to the
American People.

New York special: Rt. Rev. A. Cleveland
Coke, bishop of the Protestant Episcopal
diocese of Western New York, who is now
in this city, speaking relative to American.
ISM in the schools, said: II assure you it
is one very near to NY heart. l eonsiderit
a subject of the very first practical i'm
portance to the American people. 1t is
marvellous that the press of this country
has allowed the American idea to lie go
long dormant" After referring to the i'm
migration laws and the influx OF foreigners,
Bishop Coke said: Let US imagine our
common schools confining themselves to
the strictly elementary and practical
studies demanded in every depart
ment of American life. My ideas of such
a system would include historical instruc.
ton widely different from that which is
now prevalent in all our schools. The de-
tails of our warfare, from the days OF our
earliest conflicts with the Indians until the
close OF our late civil strife, are indeed i'm
portant, and, if confined to fact and judi
cious comment, might be i'll the highest
degree useful. Then, if our young Ameri-
cans are to become attached to the princi-
Piles of the Constitution, ought they not to
be instructed in the laws OF the land and
its history if we would make them intelli-
gent and morally fitted to fulfill the mani
fold duties Of ci~tizenship?'

The proprietor OF the Planters Hotel,

writes the Miner as follows:
''In order to provide with certainty, and
without confusion, for the great %concourse
of people that will be present in this city
at the session OF the Democratic Conven-
ton, on June 9Th next, we are ready at once
to make assignment OF rooms for that &C.
c~asion, to any number OF delegates and Wis,
itors who may desire, for convenience, to lie
quartered together. Therefore, any cores
pondence upon this subject will be imme.
diately and promptly attended to-"

visitors and delegates may not be left out

Where Canadians Will Be Benefited.

OTTAWA, Ontario, March 2.-The pro-
visions OF the new tariff bill presented to
the American Congress yesterday by which
it is proposed to place timber on the free
list are gladly welcomed by those members
OF Parliament who are engaged in the lum-
Der industry. Speaking to an Associated
Press representative to-day Mr.. Bryson,
whose firm have large timber limits, sal
the abolition OF the duty would at once ell
nance value fully five per cent. Last year
the timber exported to the United States
was valued at 5000, 900. The proposed
change would greatly benefit Canadian
lumbermen, and in addition to other things
enable them to handle low grades OF lum'
Der which they heretofore have been unable
to use. Others expressed the same views.

Dignifed Reply to an Utterly Unauthorized

ISDTANAPoLIs, February IS, 1SS9.-LTe
the Editor OF the O~regonian. "A copy OF
your paper OF the 9th inst. has beer re-
Ceived. 1t was sent to me, l suppose, by
some one for the purpose OF having me read
the article in it headed a Curious Com
plaint.' AS 10 the mode usually pursued
in answering such matters as a woman |
claim ignorance, and if this is not in the
usually prescribed way I hope you will
pardon me-. 1t may be that the article
needs no answer, yet, in my way, | feel 1T a
duty to answer it.
The writer Of tive article proves to me the
Tact casually referred to in the sentiments
quoted as being mine, that the Republicans
are very much more ready to protect their
friends than are Democrats. The manner
In which this writer springs with such
alacrity to defend his party and party
trends bears out the truth OF what was sald.
But ! wish here to say that | never at
any time or place expressed myself as com
planning that the widows Of General Logan
aud General Blair should receive pensions.
No EuCl sentiment was ever eXpFtSSeu Wy
me. Indeed | am rejo,ced to know that
those LADIES are likely to receive pensions;
It's "A great mistake that | ever alluded
toa pension for myself. l have thought,
and so expressed myself, that the Govern.
meht should give me the salary that would
have been due mine. 1t is in the album
dant Inltpd States Treasury, and, as L
am told, is drawn by no one. The acting
NIce-President gets his own pay as Sena-
Tor. The reason given by my discreet
party friends for not granting me this pay
~ 'hat 1t would set a precedent. But l
suppose that the same would apply to the
PENSIONS, only that there are a very lew
Vic''presIdents to come in and very many
generals.
Although we live in an age when women
are much hOnOred, the writer seems to me
" he very pronounced, and almost unjust

BEN BUTLER THE TRUTHFUL.
A Darby Boy Who Got Him Mixed Up
With Washington.

Springfield Republican: Among other at
t~raCtive personal traits, your Uncle Ben
Butler possessed a quick sense OF humor.
There is a grim and savage twist to it now
and then as it flashes out against people
whom he does not agree with, but he is not
above liking a joke for it's WI sake.
Whether he ever fully enjoys humor OF
which he is the subject has been doubted,
but we will test him. 1t will be remembered
that when the General was in command at
Fortress Monroe the negroes fiocked thither
by hundreds, lured by the dream of free
dom. He had been quick to classify them
as c%ontraband OF wal and alert as we'll to
see that they must be cared for.
He lett a school building where the youth
could be taught, and the Butler school was
the small beginning of the Hampton Insti-
tute Of to-day. The old structure was
constantly in use until quite recently, when
it was replaced with a new structure better
suited to present needs. This was dedl-
Gated not very long ago, and we quote an
episode Of the exercises from the Southern
Workman. General Armstrong was in
s~tructing the children, as follows:
General A.-Now / want you to tell me
who set you free.
A number OF voices-Abraham Lincoln.
General A.-But there was someone who
set you free before Abraham Lincoln, and
You must remember him. 1t was General
Butler, "a pause in which the children alb
sorbed the informatlon.) Now what did
General Butlerdo?
Small boy, piping up absently from the
middle Of the hall-He never old a lie!

A BAD EGG.
What 1t Cost Geo. johnson to Steal a Fav
of Them,

Saturday, a young man who gave his
name as George Johnson, was detected in
stealing some eggs which were exposed for
sale in front of the premises of salvini
Lisa, on East Park street. The thief was
soon after arrested, taken to Jail and sub
sequently a~djudged guilty and fined $25
and costs, notwithstanding thefact thathe
asserted his innocence. On being taken to
Jail by the officers he became indignant and
declared that he had been raised on a ranch.
that he knew good eggs from bad ones and
that he would not be likely to pay $25 for
a dozen bad eggs, when he could get
ones for 40 cents adozen. Hefurther
suggested that he had been well raised and
lad no need to steal, but as judgment had
oeen pronounced the sentence was put into
and he was made a boarder in
Jhe jail.
