REPRESENTATION OF SLAVES.

The North opposed the representation of
slaves upon the ground that they were chat
ties. while the South contended that they
were persons and entitled to full represen-
tation. IL not repre-, ented, the North would
have preponderanee in the new Govern
ment; il fully represented, the South. A
balance Of power between the two was ne
ces AIRY in order TO form Government.
Such was the principle upon which the
union OF the States was accomplished, and
which was believed to be carried out by the
three-hith representation OF slaves. See
Lost Principle, by Barbarosss, John Scott,
Fauquier county. Va, where the subject is
ably DISCUSSED.

DEMOCRATIC PRINCIPLES.

Elsewhere in this issue viii be found
the speech Of Judge JUDD, which gives a
clear exposition of the fundamental prin-
ciples of the Democratic party, and to
which we invite the attention of our
readers.
The quotation from JEFFERsoN's in
augural address is especially noteworthy
Equal and exact justice 10 all men, of
whatever state or persuasion, religious or
political; peace, commerce and honest
friendship with all nations, entangling
alliances with none; the support of the
state government in all their rights, as the
most competent administrations for our
domestic concerns and the surest bulwarks
against anti-republican tendencies; the
preservation of the general government in
its whole constitutional vigor, as the sheet
anchor OF our peace at home and safety
abroad; freedom of religion
freedom of the press; freedom of the per.
son under the protection of habeas corpus
and trial by juries impartially selected
these principles form the bright constella
ton which has gone before US and guided
our steps through an age of revolution and
reformation
Every sentence in the foregoing is a
platform in itself, the whole a wealth of
political doctrine that should be conned by
every advocate Of Democracy, that should
be studied by every citizen of the re-
public.
The doctrine of the political equality of
men and its practical adoption mainly
through the labors of JEFFERSON, com
prise one Of the greatest triumphs of the
human race, marking an epoch toward
which the course of human affairs had
steadily advanced from the time of the
middle ages.
1t is well to refresh ones memory ano
stimulate ones zeal by occasional refer
ence to first principles.

recent assassination of Winnie Kropper by
Frank Krulis at Bohemiaville, l.. L. Ona
evening the two young men left the village
saloon in company Half an hour latei
Krulis returned, and throwing a bloody
forefinger on the bar exclaimed:
''Fve killed himl'
The saloon keeper elected his sanguinary
patron, who then went to the house OF
Constable Josef Shasek, exhibited his hor-
rid trophy, and said:
...Tna T,ge 1ili=ll vyia;,,ia I<-c5Iy. s
why did you do it?" gasped the aston
ished official
Because he said 1 had to run away
from Riverhead.'
TIE constable hastily summoned some
neighbors, and piloted by Krulis went to
the scene of the tragedy-a lonesome path
through thicket There on the snow
lay Kropper's corpse. The head had been
| nearly cut from the body by the assassin's
first blow. II walked away them" said
Kruiis, ''but hadn't gone far when /
thought he possibly might not be dead, SO
| ! went back and cut him up some more"
| The second attack was made on the
| trunk of the corpse. The fiend ripped open
! the abdomen, removed the vitals and laid
| them on the dead mans face. Then he
cut off finger and an ear and returned to
boast of his deed As in the case of Foster,
it Is probable that the plea of insanity will
be advanced by Krulis' lawyers when ne
comes to trial Meanwhile he sits in his
cell and gIeefully recounts the details OF
his crime to every morbidly minded visitor.

INDIAN AFFAIRS.

The New York World has commissioned
HENRY GUY CARLETON to investigate the
condition of Indian affairs by personal ex
animation
The first section of his report says that
the present condition Of most of the Indians
involved in the recent uprising is in general
extremely miserable, as a natural sequence
of the following causes:
1.-The treacherous and lying policy pursued
by the government of the United States of
America, as expressed in the difference between
its solemn pledges and their contemptibly in
complete redemption by Congress through the
Indian bureau.
2-The foolish attempt to force Indians of q
predatory and nomadic habit to become skilled
farmers in one generation and TO depend upon
the soil for subsistence.
S-To insist upon naturally carniverous
tribes adopting diet of grain and breadstuffs.
THE rapacity and extortion of traders from
whom the In lians must buy or starve.
! 5-Mismanagement by or malfeasance of In
dian agents.
6-The continual encroaching of the whites
upon the vested rights of the Indian.
The writer proceeds to develop and prove
these points with facts showing the starva-
ton rations doled out to the Indians, the
breaking of the most recent treaties made
with them, ana closes with these significant
inquiries.
What the public has a right to know, and
what rigid Congressional investigation should
ASCERTAIN, is
For what has the S950000 appropriated by
Congress for 1S90-l-9l been already expended:
What portion for rations and what portion for
useless school bills, useless furniture crock
cry, books, etc, and who is responsible for the
poor judgment shown therein, if any?
2-What were the actual disbursements OF
rations to the Sioux during the months of DC
tober, 1880 and who was responsible for the in
suficiency thereof, if any:
3-Why, when it was known that the Indian
crops had failed and that they were becoming
turbulent through the actual pangs of starva
tion was not more of the S9j0,00O appropriated
for their subsistence and civilization EN-
ployed in feeding them, and less in the clearly
useless scheme of civilization Who is re
sponsible for the blunder, if any?
Altogether, it is a strong case that Mr.
CARLETON makes out against the most re
cent dealings of the government with tht
Indians, and shows that the same lack o.
honor still characterizes the national treat
ment of the Indian question that prevailed
during the former century of dishonor.
Further developments are promised
which will likely be as convincing as those
contained in the first report.

ment, for it tends to unit him for the i'm
portant duties of life.
Ii the statistics could be gathered we
believe it would demonstrated that there
are more successes in proportion among
those not so highly educated than with
those who win the high honors in the col
leges, This is not due to an inferior. quail
lty OF brain in the college boys, for it is
conceded that the brightest young men and
those with the best prospects before them
are the ones who go through college. The
trouble comes from the course of instruc-
ton, which is theoretical instead of prac-
tlcal. The teaching does not take into
account that this is practical world and
men have to deal with living, active
| problems
IL is said that the STANFORD university
IN California will be radical departure
from the old and aristocratic institutions,
In That its central idea will be to prepare
young men for going out in the world and
earning living. If this idea shall be car
ried out the STANFORD graduates may not
rank SO high in the field of learning, but
fewer OF them will be washing dishes OF
driving horse cars.

Interested themselves in the condemned
mans behalf.
As a result of their efforts Smith has
been respited eight times. On each occa-
sion the gallows and coffin have been ready
for him. The seventh respite was granted
Nov %, 1890. Smith expected to die At
midnight, and the news that he had fur
ther lease of life was cruelty kept from
him till near that hour. The prison Of
ficials, it is said, thought by this means to
get him to confess. But he never fiinched,
and even row adheres to his original prop
osition: eff l am guilty deserve death;
but l am innocent and demand my free
dom. Iwant no Communication of sentence.
Either let me go or hang me-"
The disreputable character of the VIII
nesses Oh whose testimony Smith was CON
victed has had much to do in influencing
the governor to afford the prisoner every
possible chance to clear himself The vic
tim, Skidmore, was brutally murdered by
some one, at any rate. His corpse was
found in lonely thicket, and bullet hole
in the back of the head told the manner of
his taking off, while the rifled pockets ex-
planned the reason for the killing

GOULD ON EDUCATION.
A exchange prints an interview with JAY

A exchange prints an interview with JAY
GOULD in which the following occurs:
1t seems to me that our colleges ought to
adopt a new course. The time think, has
come for them to pay less attention to the
Greeks. Romans and Hebrews and the dead
languages and understand that this is pro-
gressive country, and that person is very
much misplaced here who does not know how
to help himself with his own hands. 1t would be
the easiest thing for our colleges to have me-
chanical and manual departments Incorporated
in their system of tuition. My son
GEORGE is an expert telegrapher, and when he
has travelled with me to the west we generally
live in our car and switch it off at siding. My
son will then put on his boots, his steel clamps
or prongs, and go up the the telegraph pole, at
tach the wire to his instrument in the car and
then he sends for me all my telegraph mes
sages. 1t makes him feel that he could get his
own living at all times.
If the universities and colleges of this
country would consider these suggestions
in their right meaning and act upon them
it would prove great thing for the Amer
lean youth. The newspaper photographers
delight in poking fun at the college gradu-
ates, it usually being made to appear
that the latter are about the most
helpless if not the most worthless members
of society. The papers also tell how such a
man who graduated with high honors is
washing dishes for a living in such a res
taurant; how another who left college at
the head of his class is driving horses on a
street car for 80 week; how young Mr. A.
who is familiar with Greek roots and can
rattle off Latin like CESAR did, is doing
duty as ten dollar reporter on a country
weekly. OF course these references are
extreme, but there is so much truth in them
that they should suggest to the faculties Of
our colleges the wisdom and the propriety
of making the course of instructions more
practical and of training young men in
those matters with which they will have to
deal when engaged in the problems of real
| life. 1t is not uncommon to hear the col
lege- bred young man referred to as an
educated IDIOT He is not an idiot, but
his education has been such that his learn
ing is of little or nor practical value He
can readily translate the orations of CICERO,
but who will pay him for the translatlons
GEORGE GoULD's knowledge of tele-
graphy is worth more in this world than
all that is known by all the
men who were released from all the col
leges last year concerning the ancient
Greek language. GOULD could go into the
world, and be of some service to himself
and his fellows, while the Greek scholars
would starve if the charitable did not take
pity on them. Many young man who has
come out of college with high honors, the
pride of his doting parents and the boast OF
the back number professors, has bemoaned
the time wasted in examining his head and
befuddling his brain with a lot of stuff
called education, which can be of no earthly
use to him and which is in reality detri

ly's heart. The assassin then crossed the
street and snapped the revolver Intellectual
ly at barber who had been another wit
ness against him. After that he joined a
friend named Bert Wilson, and the two
left town.
Foster was arrested next day and i'm
prisoned in the county Jail. He escaped,
but returned voluntarily and gave himself
up. At the trial his counsel set up the
plea of insanity, and are thought to have
scored a victory because they got their
client off with conviction of murder in
the second degree.
Circumstantial evidence of the strongest
sort was produced many months ago when
Isaac Smith was put on trial at Columbus,
o., for the killing of Stephen Skidmore.
The jury believed the prisoner guilty, and
he was sentenced to be hanged on Aug. 80,
1889. Doubts arose as to the business of
the verdict, and many people of influence
