THE NEW YORK LEGISLATURES

Over the contest 10 decide the COM
plezion Of the New York Legislature
there was, Of course, the usual howl Of
frUud. This partisan howl which, II
confined to Republican organs, would,
OF course, not be worth noticing, is
taken up by the Philadelphia Times,
an intelligent and independent jour
uM that ought to know better.
AS TO the candor OF the Repub-
lcan organs which are bowling fraud
at Gov. HILL, it is only necessary to re-
mark that they are the same journals
that justified the stealing Of the Mon
taua Legislature and the election OF
two United States senators by the theft
two years ago, and never raised a voice
against the enforced resignation Of a
clerk Of their own party in New Hamp-
shire last year who it was feared would
lot further the schemes Of partisans to
gain possession Of that body. They
only object to tampering with election
results when it does not iniure their
own party. Says the Boston Herald, az
Independent journal Of the highest
standing:

WILL NOT BUILD AT PRESENT.
The Proposed New Bridge Connecting
with wheeling and Bellaire.


Areport has been in circulation in
the papers of this and neighboring
states the past three or four days to the
effect that the Wheeling Bridge Com
pany was to Immediately begin the con-
struction of another new steel bridge
connecting the lower end of this city
with Bellaire. A REGISTER reporter
called upon Mr.. John NJ. Sweeney,
one of the directors OF the
Bridge Co. to enquire as TO the prob
ability of an early contamination of
such scheme.
This item is new to me-" said Mr..
Sweeney. There has been some talk
about new bridge, but il was some
time ago, and nothing definite ever
grew out of it. 1t was not the Wheel
ing Bridge Co. that contemplated
the undertaking. 1t was outside
parties, and the scheme has no
connection whatever with the Bridge
Co. No drawings have been made, no
company formed; it was simply an In
formal talk among a few capitalists,
but nothing will likely come Of II for
long time in the future. A survey was
made by an engineer, but his report has
never been handed in"
Bellaire Independent says: "There Is
probably nothing more Of this matter
now than when it was recently mention
ed in this paper. Such bridge Is con-
templated but it has not been decided
to build it. There is hardly doubt that
it would pay better than either OF the
bridges above, and as the Wheeling
Bridge Co. is seeking paying invest
ments it may not be long till it is under
way. Many people in Bellaire will not
look upon it as any advantage to this
city, but they will be powerless to stop
it or to seriously interfere with the pro-

UNDOUBTEDLY, the forecast of this
state of things has led to the attempt
to establish agricultural colleges and
experiment stations. But what seems
much more needed, to begin with, are
agricultural free schools, accessible to
at least the more ambitious and ener-
getic among the farmers sons all over
the country. The difficult thing is how
to get them. Uneducated men, we are
told, have very little desire for i'm
proved schools, because they do not
know their value, or are Indifferent.
But this has not been the characteristic
of the English race in America, so far.
We know, by experience, that some
leadership is needed to arouse the peo-
pie to the need of improvement in any
thing, but heretofore leaders have not
been lacking. Is there a falling off
among educated men in the desire to
have all the people educated? We do
not see it. The general acquiescence
in the large money grants for agricul-
tural colleges and stations seems to
show not only a willingness but strong
desire in this direction; and this seems
also to be shown by very general sur

The Agricultural College Barn.

Agricultural tor:-Last summer a
good deal was said in your paper in re-
gard to farm barns. / did not write
anything on the subject then, because
wanted to wait until our new barn was
completed, so that could talk about
what it is rather than what it was going
to be. 1t is now completed, and there
are two points in its construction to
which L wish to call attention. The
first is in regard to ventilation-a point
which was very little touched upon in
the various plans last spring.
The barn is forty eight by one-hun-
dred five feet, with twenty-five foot
posts, the floor Of the cow stable being
on level with the stills and directly over
large cellar, forty-fve by eighty-fve
feet. The barn is balloon frame, with
eight-inch studding and eight-inch raj.

prise that the farmers do not send
more of their sons to these colleges.

WE think Professor Porter struck the
right note, though he struck it roughly,
when he attacked the agricultural
colleges as badly managed to attract
students from the farm. Farm boys
are poor, as a rule, and schooling away
from home for them costs more than
they can afford to pay. We welcomed
General Armstrong to the discussion Ct
this subject most heartily, because he
is one of the few men who have sue.
cessfully solved the problem of giving
poor boys and girls good education
so cbeaply that all who will can avail
themselves of the chance. Professor
Porter has shown clearly that the agri-
cultural colleges on their present lines
do not do this thing, which yet must be
done before much good can accrue to
our farming interests from these we'll
endowed agricultural cole ges, with
abundant apparatus and plenty Of
teachers, but very few students-and
Of these few hardly any who are pre-
paring themselves to be educated
farmers. Instead of criticising Profess
sor Porter 50 severely, we wish that
General Armstrong would help him on
the constructive side of this work. The
professor is certainly right when he
says that the farm boys must be very
cheaply lodged and fed before they can
flock into the agricultural colleges; and
we will add TO this our own opinion,
that the college farms ought to be
made to feed the students by thar own
work. Half days study each day is
enough, and better than more; and the
other half ought to be given to the
practical work of the college farmland
The professors ought to be of the type Of
men who say, "Come, boys, let us
show you how to make this farm the
most productive and profit BILE in the

But how are we to get these better
country schools? The only answer to
this is the old adage, Where there is
will there is way" How is this
will to be aroused? Candidly, we see
no way to arouse it short of hard
times consequent upon lack of knowl-
edge. These hard times seem to be
getting nearer and nearer, settling
down upon our agricultural interests
like cloud. For years they have been
growing harder and harder for the
farmers, and to escape hard times thou
sands have fled from New England TO
the West, only to meet harder times
still. Now the West is pretty well
filed up, and free land is no more
abundant there; while Western crops
have fallen to lower average than
those of the East.

WHILE we believe and know that the
rights of our farmers are often en-
croached upon by the eager selfshness
of other classes, we also know that
such encroachment can be wiped away
by mere wave of the hand with
ballot in it, if the farmers would but do
their duty to themselves as a class.
Why they do not, many think a strange
thing; but the real truth is that our
farmers need better education to give
them confidence in their strength, and
knowledge how to put it forth effect
ually.
In this day of general education the
best instructed classes will control in
all popular governments. The farmers
OF America are, as whole, the least
instructed. They learn to read, write
and cipher, after fashion, in our COM
mon schools; but afterwards their
reading is usually limited to the politi-
cal country newspapers, and the story
papers of the city. These are we'll
enough in their way, and much better
than no reading at all. The newspa-
pers themselves would be much better,
and discuss higher range of subjects,
if their readers were educated to re-
quire it. AS it is, many of our country
journals are quite up to the require
ments of their patrons; and if the ed
ucational advantages of the country
were bettered, so that our farmers as
class desired information on higher
range of subjects, the supply would fol-
low promptly upon the demand.
