COLONEL SCOTS LUCK.

A WInuer on the Turf, In Politics and In
Coal and Cured of Dyspepsia.
New York Press
E1-Congressman W. L. Scott has been q
very lucky man lately. His horses have
done we'll on the turf, his Democratic neigh
bors want him to go back to Congress again.
and he has been cured of dyspepsia. As if
these were not enough lucky strokes. I am
told that he recently purchased some
property across the hill from his Scott coal
mines at Scott Haven, Pa, which he sus-
pected was underlaid with continuation of
the same coal field.
His mines are in the Youghiogheny Val
ley, and the newly acquired property is in
the Monongahela Valley. 1t has been ex-
plored sufficiently to determine its char
acter to be equal to the old Scott mines, and
to be worth hundred times what Scott
paid for it.

A GOOD OUTLOOK.

Home Money Active and Ensy-Prospect,
for the Fall Trade.
There was an improvement in checking yes-
terday and depositing was heavy, showing
activity in the regular lines Of trade, but other
wise the situation at the local banks differed in
no material degree from that of the previous
days of the month. The supply of funds is
sufficient to meet any drain likely to be caused
by the July settlements.
Money is reported easy In all parts Of the
country, notwithstanding 1t is more largely em-
ployed than usual at this season. Financiers
point to this fact as an argument against free
coinage of silver. Railroad earnings continue
TO show large gains, and the crops are reported

The ruling quotation on oil yesterday was

scarcely anything doing. only about 1000 bar

that the oil trade is fast joining the list Of van

Pittsburg bought. There was no expression at
any of the other exchanges. The day was as

Rush and Captain Henry Hicks, of this

excursion on East Fork. Personal inquiry

THE NOKCKOsS DECISION.

The State Medical board can scarcely
expect to be congratulated on it's inter-
probation OF its own pet measure Of
February, 1889. The wording OF the
law is admittedly faulty and even con-
Trajectory, but the board or it's legal adj
visers would seem to have singular
knack OF extracting the wrong idea from
it on nearly every occasion. Emanatiug,
as the measure did, from the experience
of medical practitioners themselves, we
suppose there can be no mistake in as
Stunning that it was primarily intended
for the benefit of their own interests.
In urging its passage they were perfect
ly justified. 1t was not in accordance
with the rights Of things that medical
man, who had devoted time money and
ability to qualifying himself for his re-
sponsible duties, should be robbed OF his
opportunities of practicihg his profess
sion by men whose only quail
ifications, perhaps, were effrontery
and ignorance. No one wishes
to assert that such a possibility was or
lis desirable. And the prime object OF
protecting the medical profession was
not at all Incompatible with the protec-
ton of the public. The safety Of the
one was, in fact, the safety of the other
The great majority of patients are not
competent to form a technical opinion
of a practitioners abilities and qualitica-
tions, and it was wise idea that that
responsibility should be placed on more
capable shoulders. This was the neces-
sity that gave birth to the State Medical
board.
We cannot see that the board or its
sympathizers can find serious objections
to the Norcross decision either in law OF
equity. The board itself was response
BILE for the details Of the measure. II
was clearly Of opinion that the public
was safe guarded by the provisions il
had enacted for graduates. The grad
uate, who would practice medicine in
this state, must produce to the satisfac
ton Of the medical board diploma
which is genuine, which is issued by &
medical school legally organized and in
good standing, whose teachers are grad
yates of a legally organized school, and
he must further prove that he is the
person he represents himself to be
With these safeguards the public are
well pleased, and for their enactment
they are grateful. 1t is difficult to un
derstand why with these certificates the
board should think it necessary to &c
through the form of an examination
With all due respect to the medical prac
titioners on the board, we believe thai
the diploma of the graduate 10 even bet
ter evidence Of his capability than thei
certificate. A spirit of sweet modera
ton will render them more successful i,
the next case.

The New York Sun in speaking of the
Reform club banquet says that the hun
dreds OF good democrats who assisted in
the innocent belief that they were cele-
brating the triumph of democratic
principles were the victims of calculated
deception. Surely this is a strange de-
fusion. We call upon Quay, Reed and
Mckinley to rise and show sufficient
proof that the late election was re-
publican victory and that The. principle
of tariff reform is not democratic.

near future we invite discussion on the
length and conditions of the prospective

destroy his own calling? In this age Of

An Emperor Who E,np..

The Emperor Williams is an emperor who
emps, says the boston Transcript. He has
the Napoleonic mania for regulating every
thing. for putting everybody in barracks,
for drilling nations, for &c ting up moulds
in which public opinion is to be run if the
government can do it. The latest subject
of the Kaiser's regulating spirit is the Ger
man public school system. The higher
schools come in for the bitterest animad-
versions. There is too much time given to
the classics, according to the emperor, and
not enough to German. The high schools
turn out young imitation Roman and young
imitation Greeks, but not young Germans,
says the Kaiser. They have to teach Ger
man, but they don't like to, and shuttle
through it as rapidly as they can.
Such is the emperor's criticism. Its &C
curacy and its sincerity are both open to
question. The German high schools may
be pardoned it they trust a great deal to the
students home influences and:environment
to teach him German and to inspire him
with an ardor for Germao literature As
the emperor says, Germany needs more
soldiers, and the present school system is
accountable for the growth of near-sighted-
ness, his criticism. though in the language
of man of education, may be inspired by
the feelings Of , drill sergeant. II the en-
peror really wants to have Germans study
German more he will best accomplish his
object by letting them alone. An undue
proportion of olassicalism in the pnblic
school system OF = country where it is close
connected with the central government
is the refuge of students to whom ootem-
porary progress is prohibited. That was
the case in France before the revolution.
The young men who studied at all were free
to study the history of Greece and Rome,
for that was nearly 1900 years back; but
the teachings of French history otherwise
than as the government authorized it to be
taught was not encouraged. Students who

A Natural Inquiry,

A certain witty bishop found himself, a
few months ago, crossing the bay of Fundy,
from DiRby to st. John, in company with q
certain Mr.. Caswell. The bay Of Fundy has
a reputation for turbulence only to be
matched by the English channel or the bay
of Biscay. Mr.. Caswell was struggling with
violent attack of sea-sickuess: but the
bishop, who was above such weakness, was
very cheerful. and inclined to conversation,
He had failed, however, to catch Mr.. Cas-
wells name correctly, and persisted in call
ing him Mr., AsWell.o At last the sufferer,
in moment of ease, corrected him. saving:
"Caswell, my lord; my name is Casweii,
not Aswell.''

ically, az a new apasm seized upon his I'M
happy acquaintance. 'Well. Mr.. Caswell,
