. The State Normal School.

Among the many important matters
touched upon by Gov. Northen, In his
message to the Legislature, there 10 non Q
attention by the legislature than that of
providing for the normal school at Athens.
Approaching the advantages that would
accrue to the school children of the state,
aud through them to the state ITSELF the
last legislature accepted the grounds and
buildings rendered by the state university,
together with a small amoHnt of money, for
the use of the normal school.
But the last legislatures action did not
go far enough. Something more than a
summer school for the training of teachers
appears to be needed, which the governor
urges the legislature to provide. The boa I'd
of instruction Of the normal school, Ia a re-
port, estimates that an appropriation of
about S45, 600 for repairs. furnishings, en-.
ployment of faculty and running expenses
for the ensuing year will DO needed. The
appropriation of tbs SUN named Ia recon-
mended by the governor. and when it is
considered what an important factor in the
states school system the normal college Is, it
does not appear that the amount is excessive
or that like sum could be devoted 90
better purpose.
A college in which the art Of teaching Is
carefully and scientifically taught means
better and more thorough schools for the
children, which in turn means better men
aud women for the states citizenship.
Money devoted to such an end is certainly
we'll invested.

Thomas @. shesrman,s Story.

Thomas @. Shssrmau'5 Story.
Nothing has occurred since the election
that 30 deeply interests the newspapers Of
New York as Mr.. Thomas G. Shearmsn's
! account OF what took place between Mr.
Cleveland and MIR. Croker, Mr.. Sheehan,
and others at a dinner at the Hoffman
house last August The story, which has
been published In the MORNING News, is
that Mr.. Sheehan on behalf Of the Tam
many democracy and the regular demo-
crat c organization Of New York, demanded
pledges from Mr.. Cleveland relative to the
distribution Of the offices in the event OF his
election, and that Mr.. Cleveland emphatically
refused to make any pledges. Mr.. Croker,
Mr.. Sheehan and Mr.. Murphy all declare
that the story has no foundation whste er ;
that at the dinner in question no pledges
we're asked and none given. On the other
hand Mr.. Shearmau, who was not present
at the dinner, insists that his story is true in
every particular.
1t is evident that somebody is mistaken,
and in view Of the fact that Mr.. Shearmsn
was not present. and all those who deny
his story were present, it is pretty safe to
assume that Mr.. Shearman is mistaken.
It is undoubtedly true that MIR. Cleveland
met Mr.. Croker, Mr.. Sheehan, Mr.. Muir
ply and others at the dinner in question,
but it is hardly probable that the question
of pledges was considered. Mr.. Croker and
the Others understand Mr.. Cleveland too
well to have asked him TO pledge himself to
make division of the officers in accordance
with their wishes and plans. They wouldn't
- tA.v~ -
asked for them, and the chances are they
did not ask for them. At the dinner the
campaign was doubtless discussed because
that was tue purpose for which the dinner
wss given.
The republican papers have always man
ifested a great curiosity about that
dinner, and they do not hesitate
to say they do not believe Mr.. Shear
mans story. They take the view that
pledges were demanded from Mr.. Cleveland
aud that he gave them, though they have
no other ground for this belief than that
Tammauy aud Hill democrats worked ear
nestly for Mr.. Clevelsnd's election. They
would like TO have the impression enter
tanned that MT. Cleveland was forced to
yield to Tammany, because that view would
tend TO lessen his popularity. However,
they are not likely to find out what was
said and done at the dinner with respect to
political matters, and, having no evidence
to support their version of what did take
place, they will not succeed in creating the
impression they would like TO have enter
tanned.
Nodoubt Mr.. Cleveland will appoint some
TammAny Hall democrats to offices in New |
York II he does he will appoint them ON |
the ground Of merit and not because
of pledges made before the cleo
ton. Mr.. Cleveland, in making appoint
meuts, will be absolutely independent, and
those who get the offices will get tkem on
the ground Of merit aud no other.

4 Very Serious Question.

The pension charge has reached such
enormous proportions that it has become
very serious question how to get the money
necessary to pay it. The country is, Of
course, rich and prosperous but the people
object to having the burden OF taxation in
creased TO pay pensions to men who are not
entitled to them. There isn't a shadow Of
doubt that the names of many thousands
Of persons are on the pension rolls that
ought not to be there. bow they got there
is we'll known. The pension frauds would
startle the country il the details Of them
should be published.
The rapid increase in the pension charge
is alarming. The commissioner Of pensions
has recently announced that there is de-
iciency 10 this years pension appropriation
OF $50, 100000. That sum, together with
the $50 900, 900 already appropriated,
makes S1s6, 900 for pensions this year.
The indications are that $500, OOO, 900 will be
required for pensions next year.
The revenues Of the government are not
now equal to the expenditures. The admins
tration Of Gen. Harrison has not only dis
tributed the entire surplus of $50, 900, 900
left by Mr.. Cleveland's administration, but
has enoroached upon the bank redemption
fund to the extent OF $4,000, 600. In view
Of this condition of affairs the question
arises, where is the money to come from 10
meet the extraordinary and steadily tn-
creasing pension demandl
1t looks as # one OF the frst things the
Democratic party would have to do when 1t
gets control Of the government is TO make
rigid investigation of the pension rolls for
the purpose Of cutting Of all pensioners who
are not entitled tn pensions. Either that
will have to be done or the revenues will
have TO be increased by increasing taxation.
To attack the pension rolls would cause
big cutlery, which the Republican
party would encourage by every
means in its power. And any increase in
taxation would be unpopular. 1t is evident.
however, that something will hav to be
done to keep enc treasury from be coming
bankrupt.
It is a fortunate thing for che country
that the Republican party has been driven
from power. Had it retained control of
the government four years longer the
nations credit, in all probability, would
have been seriously impaired. 1t will re
quire the exercise OF the strictest economy
during the whole of Mr.. Cleveland's term
and perhaps longer, to place the finances Of
the government on a sound basis.
