visitors over certain routes, but some of
these routes were considerably shaken up
by the recent earthquake. and there was a
disposition shown to leave them out in the
cold and give the attention of the guests to
other portions Of the State resting upon
more stable foundations. This would in
clude yacayille, and tie Vacavllians OBJ

Librarian Cheney of the Free Public Lib

Mr.. Cheney stated that branch in the

books circulated, in spite OF the energetic
work of the assistant librarian in charge, is
only about $50 month on the outside, and
at that rate it costs the library about %
running. He thought that altogether too
much. and suggested that the money could
be used to better advantage elsewhere
The trustees all thought likewise. They
decided to give itanother months trial, and
if the neighborhood in which it is located

THE NEW YORK DEMOCRATS.


 The eyes of all interested in the politics of this country are turned toward New York. And they see some strange sights. There has never been & candidate for the presidency like David B. Hill. It is more than probable that there never will be. He is what "the boys" call Ca daisy" He knows what he wants and he is not back ward in asking for it or trying to get it. Five years ago he began to build up a political machine in New York. He has not rested in this work and as result he has to-day the most perfect machine-like organization of any man in the country. When his State committee called a con- vention for the 22d of February to nomi- nate delegates to the Democratic national convention a wild howl went up from the element of the Democratic party attached to the political fortunes of Grover Cleve- land. The early date set for the eonven- ton surprised them, and they pronounced it an unprecedented piece of po- litical chicanery. They went in- to the newspapers with their wailings and they held great mass meet ing at Cooper Union to denounce Hill and his cohorts. But Hill didn't mind any more about them than tiger would about cat He held his convention and put his stamp on the whole proceedings.
 Such audacious and successful politics commands the admiration of all "practical politicians" even though they are in doubt about the wisdom thereof. The interest which is now felt in the situation bids fair to increase. The question is, what will the protest against the Hill business amount to9 Nobody can now tell, but it is to be remembered that protesting is hard work, and that ''bolting" and "mugwumping' are still harder. Success brings adherents and quiets opponents, and when the time for the Cleveland convention comes that l convention may be more respectable than | impressive. But if there should happen to be vigorous protest perhaps Hill would not get the prize. It now seems certain l that Cleveland won't

A MISTAKE.

Of course the managers (both "lady' and "gentlemen'D of the worlds fair will make mistakes. But they have, if report speaks truly, made one mistake which ap- pears to be quite unnecessary. They have decided that it will not be best to have a model school in operation as a part of the educational exhibit. This exhibit will therefore be an array of publishers prop critics, of desks, tables, chairs, charts, drawings, copy books, etc., etc. Those who want to see model school in operation at the fair say that education, like all other pursuits, needs for its promotion that its professors shall be enabled to study comparative methods, appliances and results. The ed ucational exhibit at Paris in 1889 affected to considerable degree the judgment of all American teachers, while the earlier European educational exhibits led within twenty-five years to essential alteration in American schools that was first mani fested at the Philadelphia exposition. Naturally, European educators coming to the worlds fair will expect to see the American method in operation. What can mere arrays of written or printed matter, of school furniture and of publishers ad- vertisements accomplish as an American educational exhibita It will be grave dis appointment; the exhibit will be made quate to it's avowed end, it will reflect just the crudeness and want of practical are so ready to charge upon Americans.
 There is force in this. The common school system of this country is we'll worth illustration at the big show.
