on "Our Relation to Samoa" by Mr..
George Fl. Bates, who was Commissioner of
the United States in 1886, and who, since
this article was written, has been re appoint

brief one by Captain Erben of the United

1875. The Lincoln History deals this month
with "The President and the Draft" oval

The time has evidently come when
the educational department of the Unit
ed states should be put upon stronger
and broader basis, says writer to the
New England Magazine. 1t Is at pres
merely "a bureau in the department Of
the interior; and the bureaus of that
department have become so numerous
that it is perfectly plain that some more
efficient division should at once be made.
This bureau should be made a depart
ment, to be called the department of
education, and the chief officer should
be styled the secretary Of education.
His salary should be the same as that of
the secretaries of all executive depart
merits. But he should not be member
of the cabinet. The Office should be in
no sense a political one, but should have
Il permanancy, like the Office of the sec
retary of the Smithsonian institute or
the librarian of congress. Congress has
no greater opportunity to elevate the
character of the whole people and to
render stable the republic than by at
once putting this bureau of education
upon strong footing and granting it
such liberal supplies that it can do the
great work assigned to it with vigor and
success; ano the country is to be hearth

characteristics or DR.. Holmes.


An entire want of reverence for
everything which is not naturally and
nationally worthy of reverence is shown
by DR.. Holmes, says writer in the
New England Magazine. The demo-
cratic characteristic Of his mind mani
tests itself everywhere in his books; and
1T makes him u radical in religion, as
1t makes him radical in moral couvic-
tion. He will not accept as true that
which has no other claim but antiquity,
or that which has no other claim than
mere authority. This tendency some
times makes him too iconoclastic, and
1T sometimes makes him strike too
heavy blows at the narrow creeds OF
men; but 1T Is n genuine part OF the
man, and part of his democratic
equipment. He will accept what is good
because it is good, but for no other rea-
son whatever; and this is the essence of
the democratic conception of man. AT
the same time DIR. Holmes has thor
ough-gong faith in character as the
basis OF all that is manly. He does not
count men rs of equal worth morally or
spiritually: but manhood, wherever he
finds 1t, and of whatever true quality,
he respects and houors. He carries his
conviction of the worth of manhood so
far that he says, ''Wo may confidently
trust that we have over us n Being
thoroughly robust and graudly mag
unanimous. He will not even believe
IN God as acting the tyrant or paying
the uutOcrat.
