THE EDUCA1IONAL TEST.

1t is clearly a debatable question
whether or not the educational test
should be applied in fixing the Qualifi-
cation of voters, but it is safe to assert
that the proposition will not grow into
popularity. AS general proposition, 1t
sounds we'll to say that in government
Whose perpetuity depends upon the In
telligence of its population none should
be permitted the privilege Of the elect
i've franchise who do not possess the
educational requirements to be de-
termined by law. On the other hand, it
would not sound well to say that IN
government based on manhood SUI
frage any should be excluded from
the privileges Of an elector be-
cause of unfortunate defects IN
their early education. There are
clearly two sides to the question, so
far as we consider it in relation to our
peculiar political institutions. There
are also two sides to the question in its
other aspects. There is many an illIt-
crate man who is better qualified for an
eector than some who have the most
UlllSIitu liNIC 10 uh WV
saying that an educated fool is the big
gest one, and we all know that the more
intelligence scOundrel possesses the
more dangerous he is to society. Thus
it often occurs that an education is not
the greatest blessing that can be con-
ferred upon an individual. If such
thing were possible, the qualification
of a voter could better be determined
by ascertaining how much rugged hon
esty there is in the mans nature than
by attempting to ascertain how much
he knows of geography and arithmetic.
But whatever may be said now on
this subject will have very little bear
ing few years hence. The common
schools are solving the problem of edu-
cational qualification for voters. In
almost every section of the country the
illiterate person Is the exception. The
proportion of illiteracy is greater
in some of the Southern states than
elsewhere, because of the peculiar con-
diti0nS which exist. But even there
the darkness is giving away to the light
which the introduction of free schools
brought in its train. Ii is only Ques-
ton of time, and very short time at
that, when illiteracy will disappear in
the Southern states, and the educational
test which South Carolina now pro-
poses will ind no application. 1t would
be a more profitable study for the Amer
lean people to devote their attention to
some scheme whereby the corrupting
influence of money could be removed
from politics, than to be worrying the
American brain over the educational
test. Our institutions are suffering
more from the ravages of the vote pur-
chaser than they are from the illiterate
voter.

NAMING THE TERRITORIES.

Congress having pretty well made up
its mind to admit the territories, the
congressional brain is perplexed with
regard to the naming of the new states
when they come in. As we have already
Indicated, there is disposition among
congressman to find new name for one
of the Dakotas. Now there is additional
worry about the naming of Washington
territory. 1t is claimed by some that
the name is too common to be applied
to state, while others think that the
father of his country has been
singularlv distinguished by having
the national capital named for him,
and that it would be a detrac-
ton from the honor already done
TO the memory of the illustrious WASH
INGToN to be bestowing his name too
promiscuously. There are still others
who object because the name is sure to
be contracted, and they think ii would
be lowering of WAsHINGToN'S fame
to have it written Wash" OH every
letter addressed TO citizens of that de-
lightful section. Then. again. objec-
tons are urged against the names OF
some of the other territories. There
is Wyoming, for instance, which
will only serve to perpetuate the
memory of a horrible massacre
in Pennsylvania in early days.
New Mexico is not United States
name; while the objections to Utah,
Montana, Arizona and Idaho are that
we already have a surfeit of Indian
names. But then there is no probabil-
ity that any of these objections will pre-
vail. The territories will all come into
the Union in due time, and will bring
their names along with them.

Pioneer Press, and their complete failure to

have established this fact very firmly in the
minds of our people. and have effectually
killed any more such schemes OF grasping
newspapers for ali time to come. In the
meantime, while Winona people will sup

Dear Sir: In proof of your accredited fair
ness in opening your columns to both sides
in a controversy of public interest, and as
and a large number of our fellow citizens are
assailed i'll your Sunday issue by one James

employing Morrow's ignorance of the laws
of the order, he says was expelled TOR nom

Der can be expelled for non-payments.

COMMUNISM OF WEALTH.

Republican journals expend good
deal of depreeatory criticism over the
expression of the president as to a
communism of wealth." They have
not questioned the conservatism and
careful use of words by Judge COOLEY,
the head of the interstate commerce
commission; and yet he, speaking of the
railroad pools and combinations in OPP
position to the law, says they "piace
themselves on a level with anarchists"
The language in both cases is strong
and pointed, but it is time there were
forcible remarks in that direction.

Great Britain has not been noted Tor

WHO ARE THE VICTIMS ?

The investigations at Chicago of rail-

commission give point to note. They
found that. although the railroads al
ways complain that the passenger bust

have been paying scalpers large per-
centage on the traffic. In the case of
one road Sc commission was paid on a
$3.50 ticket. and still no reduction
could be afforded in the passenger rate.

SUFFOCATED IN WHEAT.
A LifeIess Body Found in a Car at
st. Peter.

Special to the Globe.
ST. PETER, Mimi, Dec. 16.-An un-
known man was found in lifeleSs con-
dition in one of the freight ears which
arrived at the Northwestern depot this
morning. The car was loaded with
wheat and had been shipped from some
point in Dakota. The body indicated,
however, that it had not been long in its
lifeless state and showed no marks of
injury. A bottle of whisky was found
in the car, and the man had evidently
broken into the car in drunken state
and had been suffocated by the wheat.
A coroner'S jury rendered verdict to
that effect. A conductor at this place
appears to recognize the man as an EN-.
ploye of the railroad at Tracy. He was
tolerably well dressed, but his coat was
missing. Nothing was found on him to
identify him by.
