Origin Of the Common schools.

| State Journal.
Roger Q. Mills. in his Racine speech,
made this declaration, and democratic
newspapers seIZing upon it as a pro-
| due. of inspired wisdom:
The school house is the necessary
part of tie institution of free gov
ernment. The school house came
rom the same Democratic source
| whence all this whcle creed which we
r. confessing came. And yet they
are trying 10 make people believe that
the Democrats are not the friends OF
'dueation."
Mr. Reed recently remarked that
he Democratic party viii shortly be
put down the rebellion, and that it in
au1Grated the business reforms in the
interests OF business in the house of
representatives
Triily, this would not be surprising,
IN view of the fact that the democracy,
through the mouth of Mills, is now
claiming to be the originator of the
school house
John Calvin esttbllshel com me II
schools, and Martin Luther introduce
ed the common sch lol into GeIma ~,
as John Knox did into Scotland.
Back in 1910. before the Democratic
party or American liberty was cen
ceiyed, there were common school, II
Massachusetts and compulsory edu
cation.
Thomas jefferson contributed his
III share, all honor to his name for it,
in extending the common school sys-
TEN to Virginia, but it was sixty years
'a.cr before the southern wing of So
ciety on this continent, of which Mr..
Mills is member, adopted the COM
mon school system The fact is that
the southern democracy, the CONTROL
ing spilit in the Democratic party in
this country since the foundation OF
the government, had 10 use for the
Common schools until after the war.
But when Mr. Mills declares that
the school house came from Demo
cratic source he states an absurdity.

The Commercial Gazette, OF Pitts
burgh, takes an interest III our cam
paign for the little school house and
says:
The indications for Republican
success generally this fall are good,
but i'll Wisconsin they are particularly
good. In eSpousing the cause of the
anti-public school elements for their
votes the Democratic party of the
state has signed its own death war
rant. The best people in the party
are leaving it by scores; lawyers, bust
ness men, editors march out of it
weekly The structure of the Demo-
cratic party threatens to fall to pieces.
Nothing Ike such disintegration Of
a party has ever been seen before in
the West, and perhaps there have
been few, if any. similar instances i'll
the East. The spectacle is worthy the
serious attention of the whole country
The Democratic party in Wisconsin
lifted its hand against the public
school, ANA il will fall, and great will
be the tall thereof. Any other that
! attempts the same thing can expect
the same fate.

pounds, another that weighed nine

two catfish, several bass, and q carp that

Park fishing pier this season. His big
bass weighed eleven and half pounds.
Over three tons Of FISH were caught on
the beach at Cape Mny on Wednesday in
wade nets. The breakers seem to be full
of fish, owing, it is thought, to the abb
sence Of the menhaden steamers, which
have heretofore coasted along the shore
in quest of bony fish, and which have not
hesitated to dump the edible fish out Of
their nets. The catches are mostly snap
ping mackerel, weak fish locally called
blue fish and rock. The catches OF sea
trout and swapping mackerel on
THURSDAY. were un ap Inc
from the island q carload, be-
sides what was gathered up at
Court House. from Anglesea. Not less
than fifty tons were caught since early
morning about the Cape. So plentiful are
they that boys wade in the surf knee
