Some Important Legislation.

ED. RECOMMENDATION Legisla.
tors are at present deeply absorbed
with two very important questions to
the taxpayers of this Commonwealth.
We refer to the Nesbit Road Bill,
and the Free School Book System.
They appear to be handling these two
bills with great caution and consider
alton. This is right; care is required
in all measures affecting SO greatly
the interests of the entire Common.
wealth. Nevertheless, there are some
objections to the measure now before
them regarding the proposed new text
book system. That a perfect outrage
has been practiced upon the patrons
of the common schools by the Book
Trust needs not to be discussed by
us,-all are aware of this fact,-but
just how to remedy this outrage is the
question at issue. There are many
ways TO affect a cure Of the malady,
but the one that shall bring about the
best results to all concerned is the
right way; all agree on this point.
One way is (and we do not say that
it is the best way to order tie pub.
fishing of the text series of the Com
monwealth by the State, under the
direction aud control of the State
superintendent of Public Instruction,
permitting him to call to bis aid a
certain number Of County Superin.
tendents, Cor other qualified p~ersobs),
to assist in compilation of a uniform
series, which in their judgment shall
meet the wants and best interests of
the educational purposes of the State.
Let the State make proper ~appropria.
tions to complete the entire work, and
distribute the books to the schools
through the officers of the several
boards, and at such prices as will GOV.
er the actual cost of publication.
This would bring those books within
the reach Of every patron Of our
schools. 1t would bring about a per.
tectly uniform series, so much desired
by our teachers, throughout, not only
the comfy, bot the entire State.
What have our teachers and pat
rons to say on the question or prob
lem? IA.

HOLDING MONEY ORDERS.
Remarkable Result ofthe Pres

market is reported by the posto flee
department, and search of the

eminent sho vs. tina. the same expe.
dent has been resorted 10 in previ.
Gus panics. The number and
amount of money orders issued by
the department during the past few
months has been largely in excess of
that for any equal period for many
years, and is explained on the ny.
pothesis, which has been proved to
be correct in the past, that the or
ders are purchased without any in.
tention of transmitting the money,
but merely for the purpose Of max
ing the government the custodian
of the funds during the period of
stringency.
Since the establishment of the
money order system over eight mil
lion dollars which had been set
aside by the various local postot fiji ces
for the payment of orders has been
turned into the treasury on account
of the non presentation of the or.
ders, death of the holders aud other
causes. The greater part of this
sum is thought to represent funds
in vested in postal orders to insure
safe keeping during previous pan.

PRODUCED was one hundred and twenty Eight
years old. She was gnawing q hunk Of raw

senorita was too much interested in beef Just

fire. but the skin Of face and body resembled
shriveled leather and betokened great age They
were all Of kind. these men and women. In
body they resemble Australian bushmen. They
have fiat noses, thick lips, dark skins and less
mental development than Philippians. Their
natural way of life before missionaries came
was to eat vermin, live in holes and incase
themselves in mud. For the sake Of the coun-
try's honor it is gratifying that ethno!ogists
class these people apart from the North
American Indian. Humboldt included them in
the dregs of humanity such as the inhabitants
of Van Diemen's Land. The Catholic priests,
however, have accomplished excellent results
