Among the most notable of recent
deaths is that of Samuel J.. Randall, a
member of Congress and ex-Speaker OF
the House, who died ON Sunday morn
ing at his residence in Washington
Mr.. Randall has been sick about five
years, though able to attend in part
to his duties until within the past year
or two. lie was the oldest democratic
representative in continuous service in
the House, and a strong party leader.
He was really the ablest democrat in
the country. He and Judge Kelly who
died not long ago were strong protec-
tionists, and able defenders of the in
terests Of the iron and coal men of Pa,
although they were agreed in very few
other matters Of national import. He
divided his party on the tariff question
leading the more conservative wing.
Mr.. Randall was born in 1928, the son
of prominent lawyer Of Philadelphia.
He received moderate education and
went into mercantile pursuits. He be-
gan his political career as a member of
the Philadelphia city council. lie then
entered the State Senate from thence
he was elected to the 3sth Congress,
taking his seat Dec. z, 1868, and has
since represented without intermission
the only democratic district in Philadel-
phia. In 1876 the Speaker Of the
House died and he was chosen to fill the
vacancy. In 1877 he was again elect

A social event Of some interest e
Nermonters has just occurred at Wash
ington. This was the marriage Of a
daughter of Judge Veazey to Clifford
S. Walton. The reception was at the
residence of Senator Edmunds and was
largely attended by Congressman, cab
met officers, etc., and the occasion was
rendered more pleasant by the presence
of the president and vice president, and
Supreme Court Judges. The marriage
is said to have grown out Of genuine
and somewhat romantic love affair. The
bridegroom is western man. and at
ter this manner Vermont continues to
make her influence felt in the ntamed

The Education of a People.


The education of people has been
regarded among civilized nations in re-
cent times as thing most desirable.
To compass this object has been the
aim of the wisest legislators. But in
the face Of this modern sentiment the
Car Of Russia is closing in upon the
universities of the Empire. At or near
the time of the emancipation of the
serfs unusual educational facilities were
offered to Russian youth. They were
not slow to'avail themselves Of these
facilities. Not only the young MEM
bers of aristocratic families but the de-
seendants Of those who had been serfs
crowded into the universities. The re-
suit has been the formation of a large
student class in the Empire as well as
an advance in the general state Of edu-
cation. But this state of things is not
pleasing 10 the Gar. Why The diff
ficulty seems to be that under the pres
ent management of affairs in that coun-
try there is need of only very limited
educated class. Most educated young
men desire career, but in Russia no
career is open to them. The govern
ment is run by the aristocrats. Offices
and honors are held in aristocratic fam
lies without regard specially to fitness.
The young man born outside of the
charmed circle Of wealth and political
iaWoritism aud blood, however capable
of bearing great trusts, knows that the
way to prefermentis is closed against him.
These educated young men, knowing
their capabilities, are unwilling TO take
up with the drudgery of life. They
ehafe under the necessity of tilling the
soil, tending herds, and engaging in
the most menial services when they
know themselves qualified To discharge
important trusts under the government
trusts now committed to men whose
Dnly claim is found in chance of birth.
These young men become discontented,
Is is their right, and the outcome of
he matter is that they 90 to swell the
'anks of the nihilists. The Gar looks
lpon the universities as the breeding
'laces of nihilistic sentiments. His /
dea is to suppress nihilism by keeping

ment is run along its present lines there
seems to be no other course for those
in authority than to do Just what they
are doing. But the system is utterly
false. 1t needs revolutionizing. These
educated men who are turned loose up
on the country understand this, and ont
Of the desire to change things grows nj

of the existing orderof things, the wip-

things swept away new order may be
introduced Russia is afflicted with
terrible disease. A crisis in the affairs
of the nation is approaching. Such
state Of things cannot continue very
long. The maintenance of despotism
in the midst of constitutional govern
ments is an anomoly in this nineteenth
century that cannot last. But Russia
is so deeply rooted in her modes of adj
ministration that change can only
come with a terrific shock. But the
quicker il comes the better for human
ity. 1t may be that the state of things
in Russia offers no lessons for us, and
yet we may discover wherein the duty
Of caution is imposed upon US. This
is land Of schools and colleges. We
urge upon all the importance Of an ed
ucation. We make it possible for ev-
cry one who possesses even a moderate
degree of energy and force OF character
to secure an education. The conse-
quence is that we have large educated
class. AS matters now are a career is
open for our educated men and women.
Government service is offered. 1t re-
quires vast army to fill appointments.
We need TO watch sharply lest places
become the gifts for party service, lest
there grow up kind of aristocracy in
which preterments shall be held along
certain lines, and qualifications count :
for less aud less. The fact is that tIro'
civil service regulations we should see
to it that career Is kept open for the
best talent Of the country to enter gov
ernment service. There is and doubt
less will be for years to come. wide
field open in which the educated can
work in advancing the education of the
masses. II may be we shall never get
beyond the need of efforts in this direc-
ton. More than all else, however, we
need 70 be cautious against discomfort.
Our educated classes should find salts
faction in the possession of an educa-
ton, even though it be that the career
sought or desired is not open to every
one. Society can make use of a GER

men in the direct line of theireducation
whatever that may be, but when So

There is fine field for American
dentists in Bombay and Madras. Our
young men are standing around the
streets with their hands in their pock-
cts, and chewing toothpicks and COM
planning that they can find nothing to
do, while in Bombay one American
dentist holds the field and gets 81 80
each for pulling teeth. In Madras a
population of 300, 900 is without dem
tist, and man must 20 1000 miles to
Bombay to get tooth filed with paste
or glm-arabic. Here is chance to
coin money for awhile, if man will
only seize the opportunity by the horns
and work il to the best advantage. AM
other opportunity is offered in Alaska,
where the Government is advertising
for teachers to go among the Indians.
Here is career open to some Of our
promising young men. Who will 90
