THE PROPOSED NEW SCHOOL LAW,

Senator Wing has introduced in
the Legislature a bill entitled "An
act to establish and maintain a system
OF free schools" 1t fills 81 printed
pages, and is, therefore, too lengthy
for publication in the columns of the
T1MEs. Fortunately, however, this is
unnecessary, as the bill is, in its main
provision, altogether une xceptionable,
and in accord with the prevailing leg.
islation on this subject.
There are few OF its features,
however, which we consider very OBJ
noxious, sud calculated to work injury
to the system. They are these
Giving the County Superintendcnts
the power to adopt OF change the
text books every four years;
Allowing the Assessor three per
centurs on all special school taxes
collected by him;
Prohibiting the teaching of "every
political doctrine;''
Allowing compensation to the Clerk
and Treasurer of every district board !;
and
Permitting the compensation of
the County Superintendent to amount
to as much as 800 for each organized
district in his county.
The text books should be selected
by the State Board, and not changed

the county revenues not for school
purposes.
The prohibition OF the teaching Of
''every political doctrine" would, it
seems to US, prevent the teaching of
civil government, a most important
branch Of knowledge in free countries.
District officers should serve with.
out compensation.
The compensation Of county super
intendents should not amount 10 more
than $50 per district per year. And
even this figure i. too high for small
districts.
Columns might be written in sup
port Of the above objections. But
this would be unnecessary. The %.
jections are SO we'll taken that no
friend OF tho public school needs to
have them discussed at length.
Another objection to the bill is tina,
it does not sufficiently indicate the
source or sources of revenue of indie
pendent school districts. This is a
mere detail, however, that can easily
be corrected.
The State Board is empowered to
issue two grades of life certificates to
teachers, and County Superinten den,s
may issue three grades, to>wit: one
for two years, one for one year, and
one for six months. County Super
intendents may also renew certif.
cate of the first grade; and, upon
satisfactory evidence OF competency,
he may issue temporary certificates,
valid until the next quarterly exami-
nation, which examinations are to be
held the FIRST Wednesday of Febru.

each year.

With rose tints permeate,

And night holds back her shroud
In the splendor Of afterglov.

Lacking in Fast Cruisers.

France is very deficient in large unar-
mored cruisers of recent type. Previous to
the laying down of the Tage and Cecile in
1886 the only important steel cruiser
built or under construction was the
Sfax, of $500 tons, laid down in 1888
and completed in 1887. In 1885 the Tage
was begur. Her displacement of 1850
tons mncn exceeded that Of any unar-
mored cruiser then afoat. She was the
pioneer of the very large unarmored
cruiser, and the idea has been widely
copied. Her projection was due to an
appreciation of the fact that only very
large vessels can sustain high speed in a
seaway, and if continuous high speed is
required large size is q necessity.
Economists in all countries fought
strongly for smaller vessels. but the
facts bore too heavily against them.
When merchant vessels reached a length
of $50 feet, l., 1000 tons displacement and
a sustained sea speed of over nineteen
knots in any ordinary weather, it was
useless to build commerce ~destroyers of
three or four thousand tons, no matter
what might be the speed of the latter in
smooth water.
The latest cruisers designed by the
French carry thin vertical armor for
protection against high explosive shells.
