Although Spain is having 80 much trou-
bic now with Cuba. she has enjoyed ten
years Of exceptional tranquility Pros
perfty has resulted: slowly. because Spain
is not progressive nation. but markedly
as compared with the condition existing
a. the time Of Queen Christmas accession
70 the regency. This IS due very much TO
her good judgment and TO her own char
acter The Spanish people are not partie-
ulariy ascefic, and little fault was found
with her predecessors because Of any de-
parture from strict lines Of virtue. she
has held the respect Of her subjects, how
ever. and has so pointedly made the inter-
ests Of the country her chief object tnat
there has been no Yroyocation for any OF
the instructions and revolutions when
we're so frequent under less juaicious
sovereigns.
Her advent was not very propinous-
Her Austrian nationality was not n her
favor; she is by no means good-looking'
and her demeanor. though not repeiiant.
is rather austere. Yet she has accom-
plished wonders. Although a oevout
Catholic herself under her benign reign
a Protestant church has been consecrated
In the Spanish capital for the first time,
and that by a Protestant archbishop.
The ultra Catholics, led by the priests,
were VIGOROUSLY in favor OF Don Carlos,
but they have been WON over 10 the cause
of her young son as the future king
What was once the most prohigate court
Cd nj
OF the most virtuous. Territorial mobiles
conspired against her, and the Radicals
were prepared TO upset her throne. BY
her sagacity she has cisarmed the arts
tocracy, and by extending the franchise
and by a generally liberal policy she has
placated all but the most rabid advocates
of a republican form Of government.
This has not been easy OF accomplish
ment. Corruption extended throughout
tine entire dominion. and II has not been
eradicated from all quarters yet. Madrid
has been the hotbed OF joDbery in munich
pal affairs. and a courageous young noble
man who has been leading in the work OF
reform is IN constant dread OF assassina-
ton. having within few weeks three
times had narrow escape.
Spain Is nevertheless far behind the chief
nations OF the earth; and there seems no
early probability Of her advancing to the
point Of relative Importance she so long
occupied. The loss OF Cuba would be
greater blow than she has received for
nearly 100 years, and there has been no
compensation such as England, France,
Germany, Russia, Austria and Italy have
received by increased colonial possessions
TO offset any loss.

TEACHING GEOGRAPHY.

Prof. Mark W. Harrington, president OF
the state university. has an excellent pa
per in the Educational Review on the need
OF a better system for teaching geography
In the schools. 1t has been in the past, as
he says. one OF the most foroIdding OF ell
the studies pursued by young pupils. But
IL has never been so absolutely repugnant
as grammar. under the old system Of
teaching, when the mind was burdened
with rules which conveyed no meaning TO
the student. and whose import was hot
gathered until he was half way through
the study. The teaching of grammar un-
der the old system was very much like the
study of law 10 this country until a very
few years ago.
Geography was only a little less cold
and harsh TO the young. As the pupil adj
vances he becomes interested in the loca-
ton ana features of various countries: but
II "A only after waste OF valuable time
and energy in committing TO memory iso-
lated and disjointed facts. President Har-
rington Is himself so advanced an m
structor that he rather undertakes, We
think. the progress that has been made
within fifty years. although most OF It has
been within the past twenty years. Illus
tratlons now supplement- the old maps, life
is thrown into the narratives. familiar OBJ
jects are taken to lead the pupil TO those
strange and difficult to comprehend. Yet
these seem crude and incomplete COM
pared with the brilliant picture President
Harrington draws of the possibilities open
90 the enterprising publisher. Instruction
never can be made too easy; that fallacy
Of pedagogy i now exploded. The more
readily instruction can be Impaired the
more fertile the soil becomes and the more
plentiful the fruit

number Of amendments have been
proposed 10 change the Law as to the time
OF the meeting OF congress. so as to have
II convene on the ith OF March, immedi-
ateiy after an election. 1t might then re-
main In session for couple of months
and, by that time. everything would be in
good working order for the session which
met in December following For some
reason, however, opposition has always
developed 10 such change, and 1t has been
impossible TO change dhe law In this re-
spect II is said that many congressman
are afraid that If the session vas opened
In March it would be impossible TO take
an adjournment until the business before
congress was finished up, and they would
thus be compelled TO remain in Washing

kner % the British empire According
70 the sdr1iraFs figures. the American
navy won twenty-seven Of the thirty odd
fights in the war OF 1919, and could do
better now. The United States has nifty
modern fighting ships. large and small,
and IN these times battieships can be
bought ready made. Three hundred tor
pelo boats could be completed within six
months AS for our coast cities. X must
be remembered that during the civil war
feet OF ironclads vas held az bay by

Longstreet that in case Of war with Eng
