THE PURPOSE OF THE COMMON SCHOOL

Hon. Andrew S. Draper, Superintend-
ent of Public Instruction for the State of
New York, In his recent notable address
before the teachers of Illinois, discussed
the question, "What is the end for which
the common schools are maintained at
general expense?" His reply was the
most direct and concise of any that has
been made. He declared that the pur-
pose is not primarily to enable children to
earn a living, but it is the safety of the
State; the stability of that force which
protects property, which preserves liberty,
which establishes the security and pro-
notes the happiness of all the people.
Then, whatever the schools do must be
toward this consummation. They must
undertake what is essential; they must
not indulge in non-essentials. Sound pro-
fessional opinion must discriminate be-
tween essentials and non-essentials, and
the Legislature must determine within
what limits the schools may properly
operate. The schools must be, he added,
within reach of every home, and they
must provide at least the fundamentals Of
an education to every child. They must
put every child in possession of enough
learning to enable him to act intelligently
and understandingly in his social rela-
tions and as an American citizen. They
must train his mind to act for itself, and
they must at least go far enough with the
work to enable that mind to stand alone
and begin to walk on its own account.
This, we take it, is comprehensive in
depreciation of the purpose of the public
school system. 1t clearly indicates that
there is danger of departure from that
purpose, when the schools are overloaded
with non-essentials, and when the attempt
is made to have them supply the lack of
training that it is incumbent upon parents
and guardians to attend to. The one great
aim is to give the child an elementary ed
ucation, not to train his hands to trades.
When the common school can be sup
plemented by manual training without en-
croachment upon the accomplishment of
ne primary purpose, it is unobjectionable.
That is to say, and such has uniformly
been the view Of the REcoRp-UNIoN, the
primary purpose of the free school and IFS
chief end are to so educate the child that
he may live in intellectual relationship
with the people, understand and admire
our institutions, and honor, by intelligent

exercise of them, the privileges of Ameri-

THF OFFICIAL REPORT ON ELECTRICAL
EXECUTION.

DIR. Carlos F. Mcdonald has Just made
to Governor Hill, of New York, an elabor
ate report of the execution of William
Kemmler, over which the doctor presided.
He declares with emphasis, and supports
his declaration with elaborate and con-
vincing proofs, that the murderer died in
stantly on the application of the current,
and absolutely without a twinge of pain.
His exhaustive argument in support OF
this report covers in detail all the doubts
raised and misstatements made by the SEN
sational press at the time of the execution,
and dissipates completely all the startling
charges and tragic speculations INDUCED
in with the evident intention of bringing
electrical execution into disfavor.
From all which it is justi6able to con-
clude that the doctor and his associates
are right in saying that electrical execu-
ton is infinitely preferable to hanging,
and that it is the best means of instantan
eous and painless death, and therefore the
most humane of any method known for ex-
ecutipg the condemned.
For, as DR.. Mcdonald says, ''the fatal
stroke renders its victim unconscious in an
infinitely small fraction of second, so
small as to be beyond the power of the
human mind to estimate, while it disin-
| tegrates the nerve tissues and blood to an
| extent which insures an absoluteness of
death in shorter space of time than is
possible by any other method"
This official report emphasizes the folly
of the press in jumping to conclusions upon
| the basis of the testimony of unscienti6c
witnesses of such scenes. 1t will be re-
membered that nearly all the newspapers
Joined in the chorus of the sensational re-
porters and pronounced the execution of
Kemmler as horrible, painful, lingering
and so fearful a scene as to call for the con-
demnation of all mankind. These same
newspapers are now compelled, as news
journals, to print the official condemnation
Of their hot haste, pronounced by the
physicians appointed to observe electrical
executions in the impartial attitude Of
scientific men, and as skilled in the evil
dences of death.

"THE Republican platform has stated
that the government of this State ought
to be conducted on a basis of taxation not
to exceed so cents upon the 500 of valua-
ton. And now pledge you that if am
elected Governor l will approve of no ap-
preparations which shall exceed that
amount, except in case of war or some
other extraordinary contingency, and l
believe that the Government ought to be
run for less" This is the pledge of the
Republican nominee for Governor; can
the people ask anything more from any
candidate, in the interest of economy?

plate and patent outside systems, there
fore, not only cheaper advertising to a
ruinous and beggarly rate, but to such
degree that there can be no truly self
respecting country journals that are har-
messed to either system. There is not, we
venture to say, country publisher in the
land who does not feel measure of shame
and experience humiliating sense OF de-
pendence, whose necessities drive him to
commerce with these metropolitan agen-
cies.
But these systems are more than money
making devices, since in effect they are
conspiracies against the country press.
The city dictates the classes and the prices
of advertising, and it arbitrarily sets a
limit to the possibilities of success for the
country publisher. More than this, just
so far as the newspaper of the country is
an educator, an influence shaping the
thought and sentiment, and consequently
molding the lives of its constituency, its
power in these directions is largely made
over to the manufacturer of the plate
NATTER and of the ready-made sheet.
The reading matter presented to the
homes in which the country press, thus
handicapped, enters, is not the choosing of
the editors; their judgment as to the needs
of the people cuts no figure in the matter.
The insiduous drift of false ideas of life,
bad literary style, unsound treatise, mac
curate history, may prevail in his paper
and the country editor have no power to
check it. What is apparently good read
ing NATTER" in the majority of the ma
chine-made sheets, is really weak timber,
neither intellectually strong, nor abso-
lutely wicked, and hence thin Cruel for
the minds of readers.

It's non exercise, to support their journals
as purely home products. They paurerize
their constituency, so far as support of the
paper is concerned, by removing the in
centive to local pride and the necessity for
local reciprocity.
These commentaries are inspired by the
constant friendship of the REcoRD-UNIoN
for the country press as an agency for State
building. They are intended to be in line
with the earlier expressions of this journal
concerning the duty of country communi-
ties to support the country press. The
comments are, therefore, not to be received
as specially intended to apply locally, or
as prompted by any difficulties recently
