Thoroughness in Schooling.

Thoroughness Is all right to talk
about, but there is nothing that has
been thoroughly done in this world and
it will be a good many years before
any thing will be thoroughly done.
Talk about absolute thoroughness. 1t
is nonsense. We may attain unto it as
we attain unto perfection, but we might
as we'll attempt to shoot the moon as to
reach thoroughness or perfection in
this world. Our author who wants
thoroughness means all right, but does
not know how to express himself. He
says: "There is no place in the world
for smatterers who know little of
every thing under the sum-" Is not
this what our school system is pro-
noting; is there single college gradu-
ate who knows thoroughly any thing
that he has studied in his college
coursep Take Latin, which the aver
age college student studies seven solid
years. What does he know when he
gets through? Can he talk it? Can
he even read an author which he has
never seen Witn any ueereeS Vi Huency
and acceptabilityP Then take mathe-
matics. How many students are thor
ough in itp We venture that the roll
call of college graduates who could be
counted thorough in mathematics would
be called in an extremely short space
of time. Our ideals should be high.
This is all right. We should aim at
never doing any thing in a half way
manner But the tasks half done, the
studies half learned, the books half
read and the work half accomplished
constitute by far the largest portion of
our lives. School journal.

THE DIVORCE QUESTION.
How TO Remove Ono OF Tho Most Prolific
Causes OF Martial Trouble.

| How to Remove Ono OF tho Most Prolific
Causes OF Marital Trouble.
Any one who has given the subject
any attention knows that the mulyi-
tude Of applications for divorce largely
grows out Of the permission which the
statutes give divorced parties to marry
Immediately. In practice divorces are
unconditional and in the majority Of
cases the application is made for the
purpose of marrying again.
The operation of the system is fa-
miliar enough. A man who has be-
come a little tired OF his wife meets
another woman, it may be girl or
another married woman, whom he
likes better. He begins Irritation
with her. He knows he can not obtain
her without divorce. They talk the
matter over together. The man COM
plains he has been mismarried. They
soon discover they are affinities and
there can be no happiness for them un-
less they are married. The man begins
his work systematically. He grows
cold and petulant towards his wife. He
gradually alienates her affection for
him. Quarrels ensue. He becomes
actually cruel and disgusts her with his
treatment. Finally he abandons her or
commits some offense which will war;
rant her in applying for divorce un-
der the statutes. Driven to desperation
by his treatment, she at last applies
and under our lax laws the decree is
at once given her. Then the released
husband, as soon as decency will per-
init and sometimes sooner, marries the
other woman. The reverse of the case
is equally true. A wife tires of her
husband, having found better-look-
ing or richer or smarter man. She
has little difficulty in convincing him
they are affinities. Then she COM
mences her systematic method of get
ting rid of her husband by tantalizing
or neglecting him. by extravagant
habits of life, and by thousand and
one ways of forcing him to apply for
divorce orof provoking retaliatory con-
duct on his part which will allow her
to apply, and she goes off and marries
the other. Sometimes both parties are
married persons, but the game is the
same. Every one knows the modus
operandi. 1t is going on all the time
in society.
If there were a definite time fixed by
the statutes within which divorced per-
sons could marry again-say, three or.
better still, five years, it would un-
doubtedly have the effect of largely
preventing many of the divorce cases
which now crowd our court calendars.
If the party applying for n divorce
were not allowed TO marry again within
that period it is likely the first step |
would not be taken. He or she would |
not be so fond of new affinities and they |
would not regard matrimony as mere
experiment to see whether they liked
it instead of binding contract The
law as it stands encourages free love.
1t says to the contracting parties: "1f
you think you can do better you are at
liberty to try, and to repeat it as often
rs possible" which is the essence OF
Iree love. The statute promotes in
and encourages divorce.
People would find the old husbands and
wives would do if the law itself did
not encourage them to get new ones.-

There seems to be no longer doubt
in any quarter that Mr.. Blaine is to be
Secretary OF State. It is entirely safe
to say, however, that he has not a
friend In the administration household.
Mr.. Blaine will not become member
OF the Cabinet because he is liked by
the President-elect- The "plumed
knight" and his friends assert that he.
more than any OF the rest OF .he party.
is entitled to the first place in the Cab
inet-and he Is. General Harrison
could not have been nominated with
out the Blaine influence. With few
exceptions the corporation representa-
tives, the cormorants and boodlers
were Blaine men, and they dominated
the convention. General Harrison
knows this Why, then, should he
have hesitated about gratifying
Blaine's present ambitionp
1t is idle for Harrison to pose as a
man of special integrity in politics.
He deceived no one by his recent
utterance in a Grand Army post in
favor Of honest elections. 1t is
known that the workers of his party
in Indiana submitted all their plans
to him, and that he largely directed
the campaign in that State. He was
with the committee daily for weeks
before the election, and no scheme OF
fraud or corruption could have been
concocted without his knowledge
Within ten days of the election his
son came from Indianapolis to Chi
cago and it was said he collected
large sums from rich men here to
promote his fathers chances. This
money, it was said, was solicited and
contributed for use in Indiana Does
any one believe that the young man
visited Chicago without his fathers
knowledge, or that the money was
needed at that late day in the CAM
paign for legitimate purposesp Ger
tainly not! Never before in the
history of the country has it been
suspected that son of a Presi-
Dental candidate and member OF
his fathers household had been en-
gagged in such despicable business. 1t
is true that, on his return to Indian
apolis, in an interview with the rep
of a Chicago newspaper,
the son denied the charge; but there
are many here who do not believe he
told the truth. Some of the Chicago
men who were said to have given $5,-
300 each are well known. The sons
denial is doubtless entitled to as much
credit as the fathers protestation in
favor of an honest ballot.
And again, knowing Dudley's char
acter and methods, General Harrison
caused him to be placed on the Execu-
tive Committee of the Republican Ma
Lional Committee as his friend and
Did he do this be-
cause he desired TO be elected honor
ably or not at all? General Harri-
son then knew. as he now knows, that
Dudley has been for years reputed to
De political corruptionist. Efforts
we're lately made to indict Dudley for
corrupt conduct in connection with the
Indiana election; but through the in
luence of General Harrison's friends,
hese efforts were in vain. Dudley

BAYARD'S VICTORY.
An Episode That Is Entirely Creditabls
to American Diplomacy.

An Episode That Is Entirely Creditabls
| to American Diplomacy.
Few points in the policy of the
| United States are more firmly estab-
lished than the desire and intention to
remain on friendly terms and to avoid
ENHANCEMENT with the great powers
of Europe. In the most emphatic
sense of the words, the Republic is
Peace, and yet the occurrences of the
last two weeks show how readily and
how quickly the war feeling can be
aroused among the American people
| under what seems the provocation Of
an Intentional affront to the National
| dignity. Had the news from Auckland
regarding German doings in Samoan
waters been confirmed, without any
further explanation on the part of
Germany, there can be no doubt that
within a week some such resolutions
as those introduced by Congressman
Thomas in the House of Representa-
tives would have been adopted by
Congress, and with their adoption war
would have become imminent
1t is very doubtful if war could have
been averted had Germany persisted
in the attitude which she has recently
assumed, and those who have per-
ceived this will read with satisfaction
the announcement that Germany has
receded from her untenable position,
and that Prince Bismarck has given
assurances regarding Germany's at
titude and intentions in Samoa that
will no doubt prove entirely satisfac-
tory to the American Government and
people. The German Minister at
Washington, under instructions from
Prince Bismarck, has formally notified
Secretary Bayard that the demand
made upon Mataafa by the German
Consul at Apia that the administra-
tion of the islands of Samoa should be
temporarily handed over to him (the
German ConsuD, had been withdrawn.
because mot in conformity to our
previous promise regarding the neu-
trality and independence OF Samoa"
This language comedies every thing
that has been claimed by the United
States Government, and is great
triumph for Secretary Bayard. He
has been vilely abused by the Repub-
lican press, and the Republican Sem
ators who We're preparing for con-
certed onslaught upon him in the hope
of making party capital. The end
crowns the work, however, and it is
now seen that his firmness, tempered
by Cancellation, has accomplished
what certainly could not have been ac-
complished by truculent bravado.
Few episodes in the history of the
State Department are more entirely
creditable to American diplomacy
than this Samoan episode, which has
been thus happily adjusted without
rupture between two peoples who have
peculiarly cogent reasons for remain
ing at peace with one another.-St-
Louis Republic.

PRISON DISCIPLINE,
Ono of the Most Valuable Means of Edu-
cation Ever Introduced.

| Ono of the Most Valuable Means of Edu-
cation Ever Introduced.
An American contemporary furn-
! ishes some interesting items concern
| ing the system pursued at the Elmira
Reformatory, in which the experiment
has been in progress for some years of
using prison confinement as an oppor-
tunity of comforting educational ad-
vantages on the inmates. The little
book of some hundred pages which
sets forth the results of the system is
printed by the prisoners themselves.
Only such convicts are sent to the
institution as have never been in
state-prison before. They are SEN
fenced to an indefinite term subject to
the discretion OF the board of mana
gers, but can not be detained beyond
the maximum period for which they
might have been incarcerated under
the law. For burglary, g. g., man
may be kept in Elmira for ten years,
but not longer; but if the superintend-
ent believes that prisoner, from his
record, will lead an honest life on dis
charge, he may be allowed to go free
at any time after one year. To obtain
his release he must get a perfect record
in three branches-for good conduct,
zeal and efficiency as workman, and
proficiency and diligence as a scholar. In
this latter field is found the distinguish
ing characteristics of the Elmira system.
1t is, in fact, school for convicts, and
the results are surprising. On the
average, it is said, sixty per cent. OF
convicts released from other prisons
find their way back, but thus far eighty
per cent. of the discharges from the
Elmira Reformatory during the eight
years the experiment has been con.
tinued are believed to be permanent
reformations. Every improvement has
been introduced not inconsistent with
proper discipline, looking to the health
and well-being of convicts. The ex.
perience OF those engaged in this
humanitarian work is opposed to the |
view that intellectual development in.
creases the capacity for wrong-doing.
BY enforced study the energies former.
ly employed in criminality seem di.
verted toward more psaiseworthy pur.
suits. 1t is found, however. that even
the so-called intelligent criminal ap-
pears mentally deficient as soon as he
passes out OF the groove in which he
has been accustomed to exercise his
cunning, so that it is no easy task to
broaden his views of the aims and
duties of life, and thus qualify himself
for occupying Il useful place in society.
The experiment appears to us to be
we'll worthy of consideration by social
reformers, and by all who desire that
penal inflictions should be made sub.
servient to reformatory results in our
criminal population.-London Lancet.
