PnFFBR's MAGNIFICENT PRO
JECr.


Smator Peffer has introduced the
most remarkable bill of the present ses-
SION.
The bill provides for the creation Of
q department of education, the construc-
ton of a college in the Distrle. Of Column
hin. the appropriation OF $2O,000,OO0 for
its foundation, and the further appro-
priation Of 0O,OO0.000 for the support
of the institution.
What Senator PETERS Pqpulist friends
will think Of an educational scheme re-
Quir.ng SS20.00O.000 Of the peoples mon
ey. to support Il, remains TO be seen. At
this rate 1t will soon be more expensive
70 educate men than to kill them In war
fare.
1t is not the business OF the Federal
government to build colleges and tax the
people for Their support.
The introduction OF such bill shows
that even the Federal senate Is not FREQ
from sudden outbreaks If insanity. Per
haps we did Mr.. Thomas a. Edison an
injustice the other day when we protest
ed against his character,zati Of this
country as "a national lnnatic asylum .
