SOMEWHAT TOPHEAVY.

Chicago has 100000 children in her
primaTy-gTade schools, 10000 in her gram
mar schools and 5000 in her high schools.
Yet 1t is at these 5000 higt-school children
that the gaze of the School Board is gen.
orally directed. While the primary teach
ers are overworked and underpaId, prop
ositions are being discussed to make the
bridge broader between the high schools
aud colleges and universities. In Chicago,
as in San Francisco, students are carried
at public expense from the lowest primary
class to the doors Of university; and il is
we'll that II should be so. But the public
benefit that results from the maintenance
of the high and intermediate schools is
trifllng in comparison with that which re-
suits from the maintenance OF the primary
and grammar grades. Consequently, the
welfare of the latter schools should al
ways be the first consideration of our
School Directors. This. however, does not
seem the case in Chicago. Primary and
grammar grade teachers are not. according
to the Herald. permitted to earn anything
until about 20 years Of age, and then begin

CLEARING THE WAY.

II is hoped that President Cleveland will
continue the good work he commenced in
Brazil by clearing the way for the con-
striction Of the Nicaragua canal One Of
the first steps should be notification to
Great Britain that whatever may remain
of the Clsyton-Bulwer treaty Is marked
for interment in accord with the terms Of
the treaty. This done, the British Govern
ment should be reminded that the Mos
quito chief could not give title to Corn
Island which the United States recognizes
as valid, and in a general way it should be
distinctly proclaimed that the United
States will stand or fall by the Monroe
doctrine. The rubbish then cleared away.
we may commence TO build the canal on a
solid American foundation. 1t ia not pre-
sumable that the British commander who
dickered with the Mosquito chief for Corn
Island was acting without purpose. The
locality of the island indicates that the
British want ii as point of vantage in the
event of the construction Of the Nicaragua
canal. The control of the canal in the
case of war will nearly double the effec-
tive naval force OF the power in control.
There Will be less difficulty in convincing
the British now that they have no right TO
the island than after the Island has been
fortified

AN AMERICAN MONETARY UNION

An article in the April North American
Reuiep shows what a grand opening
awaits commercial and monetary union
between the United States and Mexico and
Central and South America. In all these
silver-using countries the business of I'M
porting has become a gamble from the
fact that no one can know day in ad-
vance what the ratio between gold and
silver will be. Importers in all these
countries buy gold 10 pay their European
debts with. and with falling silver mar
ket more Of their money lie required from
week to week TO get the money which is
current in Europe. The writer shows by
statistics that England is losing her trade
with silver nations by her adherence to
monometallism. Ii the United States.
which needs a market for the products of
her factories. will put Itself on common
monetary basis with other American DOW
ers better results will follow than can BIZ
expected from any possible trade with
Europe.
Mexico is now reported as contemplating
to invite a conference of bimetalIic nations
to meet at the City Of Mexico. 1t is ex-
pected that the conference will take place
this coming autumn. The United States
will be invited 10 participate, but nothing
is known as to the purpose of Mr.. Cleve-
land in respect to it. AS Mr.. Cleveland
has at times professed to be friendly to
bmetallism on an intern ational basis he
may consider an American union inter-

THE NEW CHINESE TREATY.

From a Characteristic editorial in the
New York Herald the following is taken
1t is curious fact that the treaty which is
now so roundly denounced by rabid exclusion
lists would have been considered even by them
unnecessarily harsh ana extreme few years
ago.
Until the enactment Of the first restric-
ton act in 1882 it was assumed that an
oath had the same binding force upon
Chinese as upon other people. The fact
has since been demonstrated that no such
oatii can be administered in an American
court which Chinese regard as binding
upon their consciences. The only restraint
upon perjury is the fear that the law may
find them out. This fear, however, Is only
remote. There are so many ways by which
Chinese may make it appear that even
false testimony was given without inten-
lion to deceive that conviction only coca
sionalIy results from trial. People In
this State then thought that the restriction
act Of 1882 was sufficiently stringent. Ex-
perience showed that it was not. We
tried TO improve the act of 1852 with that
of 1884. Sill the Chinese found ways to
get round the law and In 1888 we shut
them out, We even denied landing to
those who had left China with certificates
that entitled them to land under the old
law.
The new treaty is more easily evaded
tban.~the treaty of $780, The latter gave
general permission to come and go under
such conditions as might be imposed. The
former specifies what doors the law shall
leave open. 1t will not be lawful to deny
the right Of return TO Chinese aborer
whomay show that he has wife, a child.
parent land parent may be construed
asa relativf). property or debt amounting
to $1,000. Under the new treaty 1t will be
difiut, il not impossible, to show that a
Chinese demanding admission as one of
the privileged classes is not entitled to
such admission. The treaty also speci-
fically declares that the right of transit
shuuld-be respected. Still. fourteen years
ago, California would, perhaps. have been
content with the new treaty. At present
those who have examined the treaty closely
look upon it as removal Of all the bar
riers we have erected since 1880.

VOORHEES, PARADOX.

The paradox of which Senator VOORHEES,
boasts has not yet got into working order.
While the new tariff is expected 10 reduce
taxation and increase revenues its results,
so far as we may foresee will be in the way
of reduced revenues. The treasury deficit
for March is S6.294. s65, rate that will
foot up $50 100000 for The year. The par
adox is certain TO be disappointment.
An increase Of revenue and reduction In
the rate of taxation are only possible when
there is a considerable increase in the
volume OF business. But the reduced
wages Of labor. which is certain to follow
a lower tariff, will so cripple the pnrchas-
ing power of the wage-earners that dimin
ished revenues are likely to result even
though there should be an increase in i'm
ROrtatioRs in some lines Of goods. The

falling revenues will bring the treasury
short up TO point where the road forks.
Within year there will be proposition
for another bond issue or law requiring
customs dues to be paid in gold. The lat
ter is quite likely to be chosen even in face
OF the fact that repeal Of the law making
silver dollars receivable for all public dues
will create the inequality between gold
and silver that the adm inistration is pledged
to guard against
