that SO far from possessing any grace

CURRENT COMMENT.

If the public school teachers of Buff falo and Cincinnati do not get after Dr. J. M. Rice with sharp stick for his paper in The Forum about them, it will be simply and only because corporal | punishment has been abolished. The doctor tells us, however. that it still reigns supreme in Cincinnati. so he may we'll tremble for the consequences of his great literary effort, He says the public schools in Buff falo and Cincinnati still belong to the mechanical order of schools Buffalo is given over to the corrupt sway of politics Tn the schools. The board there l consists of seven members of the com mon council The annual reports of public instruction in both cities con- tain high flown gratulations on the ex- cellence of the teaching. Buffalo has of course a school superintendent rather more metaphysical in his mind than he of the Pork City is, and therefore we are not surprised to find the Buffalo man talking of the universally accepted psy- chological law that the concrete should precede the abstract" How the psycho- logical law of the concrete works in Buff falo we learn from spelling lesson Dr. Rice heard there After spelling con- cert the teacher said,
 We will now write the words"
 This announcement was followed by 6 con- siderable amount Of hustle and confusion on the part Of the children, and order was not re- stored until states. pencils and rulers had been placed in position. When all was quiet one of the pupils called out:
 "l ain't got no ruler"
 In answer to this the teacher, without cor recting the child's language, said:
 You don't need a ruler. Do 1t the way you done it yesterday
 This must be an awful libel on Buff falo. In Cincinnati it was even worse. Dr. Rice says the great evil there is concert recitation. He reports from a reading lesson:
 What is a merchant7" the teacher inquired after one of the children had read the word.
 "A merchant is a tailor" answered one.
 "A merchant Is a man what keeps dry goods stores" said another
 "A merchant is a man who buys cheap and kin sell dear" remarked a third.
 At last a little boy, with triumphant air. cried out, "A merchant is a man what sells goods"
 The teacher corrected none of these mistakes in language, but when one of the children had read the sentence, "l broke the glass and will pay for it." the teacher said, What mistake did he make2"

Here is the grand army of the re- public" was an exclamation that invol- untary escaped the lips of those who witnessed in Cincinnati the Columbian procession of 10000 schoolboys, each carrying an American flag It stirred the hearts of old soldiers sstrangely-that moving forest of gallant young saplings with their waving banners of red, white and blue. 1t made others remember the brave young Indiana girl teacher who first set the fashion of having the country flag float over the school house during study hours, and defended it with loaded gun when some ruifians sought to tear the glorious banner down
 Patriotism and every other noble senti ment is fostered by appealing to the bet ter emotions For a hundred years after 1892 those 10000 boys and their descend ants will tell with pride the story of the school procession in the Columbian year, when 10000 youths carried the Ameri- can flag through the city streets. And if war should come we may be sure that those 10000 youths will be among the

STATEHOOD FOR ARIZONA.
FOUR NEW STATES.

A consequence of the recent election that it is safe to say the great mass of the discontented did not forsee is the aid it has gwen to the so-called Demo- craey n perpetusting itself. The warning sent out by the Republican managers to the effect that with the presidency would go the house and senate. and 80 of the entire government, was unheed- ed. Tn puerile spirit of rebellion against the Republican party because it had not enriched every man who had supported it, small number of Repub- ieans--but large enough to work the mischief-handed over the machinery of the government to their open and avow- ed free trade enemies.
 From the day it was discovered that the senate might be relied upon to carry out Democratic plans we have been awaiting the proposition which the New York World lays before the party, namely, the strengthening of the Dem- cratic majority in the senate by the creation of at least six and possibly eight new senators. This, at least, is the threat of the Democratic party.
 The plan is to cut Texas up into four if not five states, each of which would, under the constitution, be entitled to two senators. Under Democratic rule nothing but the consent of the present state is necessary. As the New York World reminds it's readers, the joint resolution of lS45 consenting to the annexation Of Texas stipulated that new states of convenient size, not exceeding four in number in addition to the said state of Texas, and having sufficient population, may hereafter, by consent of said state be formed of the territory thereof" The area of Texas Is 262, ,7S0 square miles, capable of division into five states larger than that of New York, with an average population of 450,00O each. There is no constitutional difi- culty, therefore, in the way of increas- ing the Democratic majority in the senate by eight.
 Nor is there much to fear in the way of opposition to this project from the state itself. Subdivision neans the multiplication of offices of dignity and pecuniary worth and the ennoblement into statehood of what are now but localities.
 To the victors belong the spells. The spells in the present instance are states. The first business of the Democracy will, be to turn :he spells to account in mak- ing intrenchments.
 Happily for the Republican party, the Democracy of Texas is already dis integrsting, and division of the state may have other results than the lead
