State Superintendent, of Schools Luce de-
serves credit for telling the truth about the
school system of this State. The graded
schools and the academic, and colleges are
in good condition and will not suffer by com
parison with similar institutions in other
States like Maine. But the district schools,
the school. in winch a large and most useful
portion of the future citizens of the State
are compelled to get their only education
are suffering from neglect Having no in
terested friends to urge their needs upon the
legislature, they are going on from year to
year under a system that according To Su-
perintenhent Luce's estimate, wastes an
amount that would annually support five
hundred schools. The district school is
more irnportan, institution than college or
university, and the state that fOrgc,s this will
rue IT in the long run

The subjoined dispatch would in
dictate that good society in New York
is not very far removed above the

SIR CHARLES RUSSELL,
THE HOME RULERS ELOQUENT DE-
FENDER.

The speech recently delivered by
Sir Charles Russell in London before
the Special Commission sitting in the
Times-Parnell inquiry, was historic
in its eloquence, ranking with the
greatest orations.
The man who delivered it, Sir
Charles Russell, is an Irishman. He
was born at Newry, in the year 1888,
and was educated to the learned pro-
fession of the law. In 1872 he had
risen to the rank of the Queens Coun-
sci. He was elected member of the
House Of Commons in 1880, and was
made Acknowledgement in 1886,
With the next advent of the Liberals
to power there is more than the pos
sibility that Sir Charles Russell will
become Lord Chancellor, and as such
member of the Cabinet.

Death Of w. Il. Barnum.

Nashville Herald.
The death of w. H. Barnum re-
moves a prominent figure not only
from democratic circles, but from the
leading men of the nation. A native
born citizen of Connecticut he served
in the state legislature, in congress,
both as congressman and senator, and
ia the councils of the democratic par
ty, having been the chairman of the
democratic committee in 1884 and
1885. In the political contests in the
close state of Connecticut, Mr.. Bar
NUNS influence and work was all
ways productive of good results, and
it issin great part due to his influence
that the State has remained in the
democratic column, for he was an
active, energetic party leader. Since
the campaign of 1888 he has been II
feeble health. and his death was mo-
unexpected.

Stood by his Girl.

Nashville American.
We wish to express our hearty APP
prevail of the good American grit and
independent spirit of that country
man in New York Citylwho sturdily
refused to allow his girl to be crowd
ed by eX-President Hayes and Chaun-
cy Depew. When the eloquent
Chauncy expostulated with him and
told him that he was barring the
way ofan ex-president of the United
States, he promptly declared that if
it were the ex-president of heaven he
shouldn't crowd his girl. If he had
no feminine responsibility upon his
hands he would doubtless have yield
ed something to eminence and politi-
cal distinction, but the true Ameri-
can acknowledges no claim superior
to that of his girl. He is not without
becoming reference for great men,
but no man is great enough to tres
pass upon the rights Of his girl with
impunity. The Americans best girl
is his Queen, and woe to him, be he
ex-President or President, King OF
Emperor, who dares to tread upon
her dainty toes.

The manner by wfich this adjourned

ely iirregular and its authority or

deal of doubt. As usual, the Legis-
lature FILTERED away its time with a
lot of buncomb measures, and left the
