Speaking of Section 1. of Chap. % of the
Public Laws of 1887, which provides that
every person having under his control
child between the ages of eight and fifteen
years, shall annually cause such child to at
tend, for at least sixteen weeks some public
School' and for every neglect of
such duty the person offending shall forfeit
sum not exceeding $685. the Argus says:
Now this section makes it clear as sunlight that
by FORGETTING annually sum not exceeding S25.
any person having under his control a child lie,
tween the ages of eight and fifteen wears NAV
keep sald chlld out OF the public school.
OF course person can violate any statute
if he is ready to pay the penalty. Under our
compulsory law of few years ago, the pen
atty for keeping a child out of school was
only So So that law could be transgressed
on payment of S.. But the point at issue is
not whether the State has imposed penalties
sufficiently severe to compel obedience to its
authority, but to what extent it has asserted
authority. We claim that in Section /, of
Chap. %, of the Public Laws of 1887 it has
asserted its authority to the extent of break
lug up every private school in the State
which does notfurnish its pupils with means
Vi education equal to that of the public
ocnoolS' Whether it has provided all the
means necessary to enforce that authority is
iuna1eriaL The Wisconsin law, which the
Argus claims is Outrageous" can be VIC
lateo' Just as the Maine law can, if the par-
ent is Wiling to pay the penalty. By forfeit
lng TO the State certain sum of money a
boy can be sent to a school that does NOT
teach the rudimentary branches in the En-
Iish language, just as well as boy in Maine
can be sent to a private school that does not
furnish means of education equal to that of
the public schools But the laws in both
States undertake to control to a certain ex
tent private schools. Does the Argus deny
to the State the right to do so?

CRATHER HARD ON THE CITY FATHERS

1t is hardly creditable to our city fathers
that so many of them have met with such
numerous misadventures from dogs, while ira
yelling about the city, as dogs have much dis

sons, who is bent on evil doing. The late
sessions of the council may be anSwerable
for many of these attacks.

On such an arrangement Of its congressional

House Of Congress by seven protectionist
Republicans instead of by seven free trade
Democrats. To overcome this Republican
majority the Democrats adopted the plan of
dividing the State on township lines. a
method followed in no other State in the
Union In this way the colored majority
was reduced in six of the districts to a figure

Doubtless examination and discussion will

tariff bill can be benefcially modified. The
bill as it is represents the combined wisdom

Of hundred and seventy ought to be greater.
But it is not at all probable, or even possible,
that the bill can ever be made to suit every
body. If the tariff is not revised until that
desidera.um is reached, the heavens will
have rolled together like scroll and the
elements will have melted with fervent
heat before the revision is concluded. There

very much alarmed lest blow might be

1t is probably matter of common observa-

The Dominant Seventh Rv Kate Fligo-
beth Clark A musical novel we'll written
and worth reading, is sure to find cordial
circle of admirers; and this pleasant destiny
is deserved by Miss Clark's story. 1t is re-
markable work for young writer, eyidenc-
ing thought and brightness, as we'll as
knowledge of music. The romantic and ar
tistic factors of the plot are well harmonized !;
and although the former element is some
what more pronounced than is the modern
fashion, it gives the story charm and dra-
matte movement. Miss Clark is fortunate in
dialogue and in delineation of character
The richly endowed womanhood of Flora
McChesney, the dignity and fervor of the
violinist Ferranti, the irresponsible and jeal-
Gus nature of Kalinski, the frank and loyal
soul of Philip, are well contrasted, seen
against the background of sympathetic
home-life. While the novel will be gener-
ally found enjoyable, musicians will es-
picially appreciate its excellent comments
upon the art, and composers and their works.
