WE CANNOT AGREE with the Past
that the Blair Educational bill is a
"monstrosity," or a nuisance" or
"viciously unconstitutional" or
"thoroughly bad" TO believe 80,
would be to believe in sad lack Of
intelligence or principle or both on
the part Of thirty-nine Senators who
voted for it yesterday, including
several distinguished gentlemen Of
the same political faith as our
esteemed contemporaries. How does
the Pest explain the action of such
Democrats as Senators Eustis, Vance,
Ransom, Daniel, Brown, Call Col
quit, George, Hampton, Hearst, Jones
of Arkansas, Pasco, Payne and
Walthall in supporting measure
which possesses not single redeem
ing feature?
The thing to be regretted in this
matter is that the House did not ac-
cept and pass the bin in the first in
stance, as by this time its efficacy
could have been fully demonstrated.
As it is, the House has treated 1t with
systematic shabbincss and will prob
ably continue the same treatment,
simply because any reduction of the
surplus in that way is regarded as so
much of an interference with the
revenue reform scheme of depletion.
Whatever objection may exist TO the
measure, it is Of a purely business ma
turc. VIII it pay? is the only ques-
ton involved. That is, would its re-
suits he likely to warrant the expen-
