TECHNICAL EDUCATION.

President Kennedy of the Cogswell Poly
technic College delivered an address on Fri
day on polytechnic education which de-
! serves a much wider circulation than it will
| probably obtain. In one respect, technical
| training is the most important of modern re
| forms. II comes much nearer to being the
key TO the problems Of progress and poverty
than the sngle-tax theory, or other panaceas
for the failures of modern society.
The great bulk Of our schools and colleges
are run as if the world consisted of profess
sional men only. They turn out young men
who are fitted to study for the chuion, or
for the law, or for fundamentally for
anything else. The great bulk of the sub
jects which are covered by a college course
dre curiously selected, as if the object had
been to make sure that the student would
acquire no knowledge which could by any
possibility be of use to him in after life.
There Is much that is delightful in the Guilt
walton of dead languages, and there is much
That Is interesting in the pursuit of high
science; but what young man, even in the
highest walks of life, ever recurs to these
collegiate studies after he has come into CON
tact with the world of reality? How many
lawyers begule their leisure with Horace ?
How many doctors spend their evenings in
solving problems in the differential and in
tegral calculus? Is there single college
graduate who in after life ever looks at the
textbooks over which he pored in his senior
year?
And if the traditional course of study at
our high schools and colleges fills tie mind
Of one class of young men-those who ex-
pect to occupy leading positions in the COM
munity-with barren inutiIities, how much

begging advice. Thus one-half of his time
as an apprentice is devoted to learning
things which should have been taught him
at school. Surely society is not dealing
fairly with that boy.
MI Kennedy said on Friday that the
scarcity Of skilled labor in this country had
leu 10 copious importations of skilled me-
cnahics from Europe. We imagine that In
iesaru TO technical education Europe is
aoous as badly off as the United States
but there is no question that the lack of
technlcal education in this country comnels
an uiiuue proportion of our youth to fall TO
the level of ordinary day laborers when
they ought to be following trade. and that

SENATOR INGALLS, FREE-CoINAGE
SPEECH.

Some of the gold papers object to the
free-cOinage speech of Senator ingalls, on
the ground that it was rather an expression
of the views of his constituents than of him.
self. Possibly it was. A good many pub
lie men mold their views to suit their con-
stituents. A Senator who is so autocratic
in his own State that lie does not need 10
consider public opinion is apt to become
self-opinionated. He is never placed in
position which compels him to give due
consideration to the opinions of Others
Senator Edmunds is an example of this
type OF autocrat. Nobody in Vermont 10
even considered as a possible successor of
Mr.. Edmunds. The Republicans are 90
strong in the State that no candidate on tho
other side has a possible chance of success
Consequently Edmunds dictates to his
party, and his party to the State. There Is
hardly a doubt but that Edmunds would
be broader man if he had had little
wholesome opposition. He is a kind of
giant smut in between two ranges of hills
IN his native State. People there admire
him, but lie is not in touch with the body
OF the American public. Senator ingalls,
would probably be as unresponsive to pub
Tic sentiment as Senator Edmunds if he had
IIe sway IN Kansas that Edmunds has in
vermont. Perhaps it is well that he has
not. 1T is not well to humor the notion of
an able man that he knows it ALI

WHAT HrLL's FRIENDS SAY.

Senator elect HilPs friends say that Mr..
HilPs acceptance of the Senatorship has
not in any way affected his prospects of be-
coming Presidential candidate in 1892. In
spite of their assurances, the fact remains
that if the Republicans should carry the
New York Legislature al the next election,
Mr.. Hill would be required by party usage

Democrats could elect Lis successor, or

The author caused him to be awakened, and

the critic blandly, "sleep is an opinion" SO
in many cases no vote is an opinion.
