A Public BenefactGr.

"Who is II. H. Warner, of Roches

pecially Warmers Safe Cure, have
attained such success and celebrity
at home and abroad?'

ness,
Hon. H. H. Warner, then, is q lead
ing and honored resident of Roches,
ter, not only, but prominent and
influential citizen of the United States
On several occasions chosen by his
party as a National delegate to nomi-

has been member of the Republi-
can State Committee and of its Exc
cutive Committee. He is member
of the American Institution for the
Advancement of Science; President
of the Rochester Chamber of Com
merce; a successful and upright bust
ness man. He has given away fortunes
in charities. The celebrated and
costly Warner Observatory of Roches-
ter was conceived, endowed, and is
maintained by him. His munificent
prizes for the discovery of comets has
been at once the wonder and delight
of the scientific world.
Tie yellow fever scourge in the
South, the Ohio floods, the fire dis
asters of Rochester and other cities
awakened his profoundest sympathies
and in each instance his check for
from $500 to $4,000 swelled the seve-
raj relief funds. Where other veal
thy men give tens and hundreds, he
gives hundreds and thousands.
His charities are as ready and
magnificent as his enterprises and
public spirit are boundless.
The world has need far more such
men.

The legislature has again failed to
pass q bill amending the existing
libel law concerning newspapers, and
as the law stands any newspaper
publishing items of news concerning
individuals Is liable to be sued for
damages and mulct by jury, no
matter if the paper had no malice
and did not know the man referred
to. Certain members of the legisla-
ture asserted in their speeches on the
various railroad bills pending that q
number of the daily newspapers OF
the srate had been subsidized by the
railroads, but beyond the mere as
sertion of the speakers no evidence
was offered. 1t is now said that the
newspapers are talking about re-
taliating by instituting cults for
damages against the members of the
Legislators for criminal libel under
the law as it exists. If this is done
the legislature may become convinced
that the libel law is actually in need
of amendment. -Rockdale Messen-

Perhaps the first aforesaid editor

man who loves his enemies.

THE SCHOOL HOUSE QUESTION.
Preliminary Observations

As promised in our last, we enter
upon tho regular discussion OF the
above question, and shall continue it
from week 10 week until the main
points are disposed OF. We shall
note the progress Of public education
in general; OF the American public
school system in particular, north
aud south, and especially in Texas
the action Of the fathers of tho Texas
Republic on the subject; the inhibi.
ton OF sectarian or denominational
schools as q part Of the FREQ school
system, and the wholesome results OF
the same the merits and necessity
of the system as nm educator of ALL
the people, etc. Next we shall give
in outline the history Of free schools
in San Marcos; the obstacles they
have encountered, their importance
to the continual growth and pros
perity Of our town in attracting i'm
migration o. the better class; the
indispensable necessity Of a new pub
lie school building adequate to the
wants OF our school population; and
various other incidental considera-
tons.
And right here first let us remark,
that we have no more personal inter
est in this question than any other
citizen not nearly as much rs the
great majority of our citizens. We
have no more children to send to
school, nor do We expect to profit a
n single dollar by the enterprise.
On the contrary it is not unlikely
that we may lose pecuniarily by taking
sides in the discussion. Were we to
consult merely our own convenience,
personal comfort and interest, we
might feel inclined to dodge it. But
we cannot consent to remain silent
ON a great question like this, involv-
ing the dearest rights and highest
interests of the mass of our people,
present and future. We have heard
of the remark being made on our
streets by some of the anti-school
house party, that the editor of the
FREE PRESS no doubt went to school
in his boyhood in log cabin school
house. Twas even 80, but for that
very reason, owing to the education
al disadvantages under which we Ia
bored, we desire that the rising
generation of to-day may enjoy bet
ter opportunities, and feel bound
always and everywhere to labor &C
lively to that end.

EDUCATION IN THE PAST.

The grand distinction Of modern
systems of education is the education
Of the mass of the people. Among
the Egyptians, Jews, Greeks and Ro'
mans, education was restricted to q
favored few. Hence, while they pro
duced scholars in all the departments
of science and art almost unsurpassed
at the present day, the mass of the
people were suffered to grovel in ig-
norance. The same held true in
moro modern times down to the
Protestant Reformation. The priest
ly orders engrossed all the learning
of their times, while the great body
of the people were deemed unfit to
be anything better than hewers OF
wood and drawers of water for the
priestly and lordly classes. Martin
Luther and his fellow reformers
were the first to assert tho right
of all to an education. This
was the inevitable result Of this
principle of free gospel and
free inquiry on all subjects.
Apropos, is it not most marvellous
how slow protestant denominations
have been to master this great idea ?
Some seem not to have attained to it
even at the present day. But the
great idea then started has continued
to advance, though very slowly. In
several of the Protestant nations of
Europe, and even in England, it has
no such general prevalence rs it has
obtained in this country. In some
Of them, as for instance Prussia, COM
pulsory education prevails. This is
undoubtedly better than Ignorance,
but it is moulded by the government
for its own benefit, and quite unlike
the American system of free schools.
We shall have something further to
say of the latter system in our next
