That 4 reaction against popular
education has set in is becoming
apparent through concurrent tcSti.
mony from many quarters, says the
Philadelphia Times. The latest of
the worlds greatest statesmen to
deprecato its influence is Prince
Bismarck. Overeducaton, Bismarck
says, has led to dissatisfaction and
disappointment in Gelmany-to
diSaffection and conspiracy in
Russia. Even in the United States
the beneficial effects of the public
school system do not go unques
toned, although with us overeduca.
ton is scarcely as yet to be
regarded as one Of the crying evils
Of the times.
1t is easy enough to understand
the cause of complaint in countries
like Germany and Russia. In both
countries education has been looked
upon as the imperial road to office,
but unfortunately, there are not
Offices enough to go round. This
naturally creates dissatisfaction, or
even diSatfcction, as the result Of
disappointment. 1t may be doubted,
however, whether even Prince
Bismarck would be in favor of
lowering the standard or decreasing
the opportunities for obtaining tho
higher education. The evils that
Bismarck secs, or thinks he sees
will in time correct themselves.
In the United States the problem
is entirely different, although the
practical results are much the same.
The standard of education in the
public schools is not high-cvcn in
our colleges and universities it is
not high enough. But even with
us there is such Thing as ovcrcdu
cation. Our college graduates are
too apt to look to purely intellectual
pursuits as n means Of support
inSteld Of turning to the trades or
to business. Even those equipped
only with a common. school educa-
ton arcprone to be dissatisfied with
the commonplace duties of life.
The result Of nine cases out of ten
is disappointment. When our
Learned blackSmiths" are willing TO
be blacksmiths still, their learning
will not hurt them, but if they in.
Slst upon becoming blacksmiths in
the literary workshops, they must
expect to earn less than black

natural tendency of youth IS TO

Women in Wyoming.

While the women of Wyoming
have never taken interest enough in
politics to poll more than few hun
dred votes at any election, the adj
mission of that territory to statehood

suffrage is now formally engrafted
upon our form of government, and
this must be regarded by the advo-
Gates of this movement the begin
ming of the end of the struggle in
which they have 30 long been
engaged. The experiment on
Wyoming will be watched with
interest. If it works as the advocate

The Ohio Republicans.

The State convention of the Ohio
Republicans at Cleveland last week
was largely attended, though the
nominations to be made were for
minor offices, and the proceedings
were marked by the utmost har.
mony aud enthusiasm. Those
prophets who predicted that cx.
Governor Foraker would make the
Craftsmanship of the convention the
occasion of denouncing personal
rivals were disappointed and his
eulogistic references to Senator
sherman, Congressman Mckinley
and eX.COngreSSman Foster, his
praise of the National administration,
and the work of the Republican
Congress, were enthusiastically ap.
plauded. The platform is q sound
declaration of Republican principles,
the nominations made are excellent,
and the Ohio Republicans begin an
aggressive canvass which is certain
TO place their State where it belongs,
we'll at the front in the Republican
column Of States. There is nothing
the matter with the Ohio Rcpubli-
cans. They are all right.

New England and the Canadian
Pacific.

The amendment Of the CuIlom
resolution aimed at the bonding
privileges Of the Canadian Pacific
railroad before it was passed by the
Senate last week, indicates that the
Senate will proceed with care and
dcliberation in matters which are
vital to New England trade. There
has been altogether too much legis.
latlon in the interest of New York
as against New England, but the
West is awaking to the fact that
New England interests are insepara-
bly, connected with her own. This
is indicated by the changed attitude
of senator's like Allison of Iowa and
others. If the Interstate Commerce
act is not to be modified, then New
England and the great Northwest
have a right to demand that they
shall not be deprived of the advan.
tages of competition which are
furnished by the Canadian through
lines.

Judge POwcrs's Successor.

The acceptance by Judge Ii. II.
Powers of the Republican nomina'
ton for Congressman from the
First Vermont District is leading to
considerable discussion as TO his
probable successor on the Supreme
Bench. A prominent lawyer who
is thoroughly posted on State
politics was in this city Saturday
and gave a representative of the
Free Press some interesting infor-
nation upon the subject. lie said
that Hon. p. X. Gleed of Morris
vile. Hon. L. S. Thompson of
Irasburgh, Hon. William Z. john
son of Woodstock, Hon. Hiram A.
Huse and George w. Wing, Esq,
of Montpelier and Hon. Joel G.
Baker of Rutland have been promi-
nently mentioned in connection
with the position. Montpelier is
putting forward a special claim to
the position on the ground that
there should be a Judge at the
State capital, and there are indca-
tions that the Democrats will urge
Hon. s. c. Shurtleff for the place,
with the special plea that the party
should be represented by at least
one Judge of the Supreme Court of
the State. Other counties will
probably be heard from later, but
the present occupants of the Bench
bar six counties from presenting
Chief Justice Royce

Ross from Caledonia, Judge Taft

The Meaning of Life.

We are sent into this world TO
learn the meaning of life, say
lions Herald. The present stage
of existence is not, and never has
been, satisfying to single human
soul. Its best conditions fail to
answer the deeper needs of man.
Something, we feel, lies beneath and
beyond this mystery of birth, and
toll, and decay, and death some
thing which we are to lay hold of,
however imperfectly, as the secret
of human life. The meaning of
life is profound, is mysterious, tan.

Truth Will Triumph.

Often, indeed, it seems desirable
to withhold from our friends and
from the world the whole or rart
of some truth in our possession,
says the Sunday School Times. An
author may desire, for various rea.
sons, to veil his personality under
the gulSc of pScudonym. A
parent may refrain from telling his
child all that might be told in an
Swer to that child's question. y
translator or expositor of the Bible
may decide to use reading or n
rendering familiar to the public ear,
as being sufficiently expressive OF
the sense of the original, in prefer
cnce to better atlested reading
or a more accurate rendition of the
text. No exception can be taken to
the exercise of ones clear discrc.
tionary rights in such matters as
these. But it is well to remember
that while such compromis es be-
tween partial and perfect truth may
be expedient, they can never, be fl
nal. Sooner or later the literary
world will discover the identity
concealed under the pseudonym Gf
it is worth discovering at alb, and
then the author will have two
names to be known by, instead of
one. Sooner or later the child will
discover for himself the suppressed
half-truth, and then his belief in
the REPRESENTATIVES. will depend
upon his ability to draw 4 dlstlnc.
ton between concealment and
perverslon. Bolder exegetes and |
more exact translators will ere long
make the more critical version |
familiar to the public ear and the
translator will have to
revise his work accordingly. Com.
promise between truth and error is
always wrong. Compromise be.
,ween truth and ignorance may be
light bat it will always be
temporary.

This is the eloquent petition OF

ship in republican form of gov
ernmcnt. That such dcplorablc
condition (disfranchised citlzcnship)
is the fate of the colored citizens in
the South is now admitted by both
political parties. We do not seek
domination over the white people
Of the South ; we seek participation
as citizens of the governments of
the South, and the full enjoyment
of every political right accorded by
the Constitution and laws Of the
United States"
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1890-07-25

1t is becoming altogether too
common for Southerncrs to express
their defiance Of law. In and out
of Congress they have insisted that
they will not permit the execution
of the Federal Elections bill if it
becomes 4 law. 1t has passed the
House and it is the duty Of the
Senate to pass it during this season,
and then we will have an opportu-
nifty of seeing whether the bulIdozod
Democratic Congressional districts
of the South are strong enough to
nullify National law and to defy
the authority Of the Government.
John G. Calhoun tried it and failed
Jefferson Davis and his confederates
failed in a struggle of about the
same character, and 1t is not likely
that Southern politicians of the
present day will meet with any
greater success.
