Two Manual Training Institutes.
1t Is understood that the Committee On
Ways and Means of the Board of School
Trustees is engaged in the task Of prepar-
ing the school estimates for the next fiscal
year. Suitable provision WILL of course,
be made, so far as the committee can make
it. for the proper maintenance Of all the
existing features Of the public school sys-
tenn, but those features alone will not sat
tsfy the public. For three years, we be-
lieve, the committee and the board have
recommended material extension of the
manual training facilities and have urged
upon the Commissioners and upon Con-
sress the necessity for appropriations sur
hcient to establish here two manual train
ing Institutes; one for white children .nd
one for colored children. Those recom-
mendations have never received the consid-
Grafton they deserved; last year the Com
missioners cut them out OF the estimates
and thus put stop to every possibility of
favorable action by Congress. Since then
there has been steady increase of demaal
for such institutions, and there is now
popular insistence that will not be silenced.
1t Is therefore reasonably certain that the
Committee on Ways and Means will renew
its recommended tions as to advanced manlla
II tanning, and 1t Is almost sure that the
District Commissioners will indorse the re-
quest Of the committee and board for a
sum of money sufficient to give us such
Misunderstanding schools as are doing ad-
mirable work in other cities. Argument as

until the want no longer exists. Strong as
is the plea in behalf of white boys and
girls who ask for manual training insread
of academic education beyond the grade
schools. it is still stronger in behalf of the
colored youth. This was made plain in a
forceful and timely address delivered re-
Gently by DIR. F. j. Shadd before the Second
Baptist Lyceum Of this city. A member
of the Board Of School Trustees and an
active worker in all that promises to ele-
yate his race, DR.. Shadd has satisfied him

The Aeltyefance is in striking contrast with
that Of four years ago. Taxation for reve-
nue. only is insisted upon. but not in ring
ing or aggressive terms. The necessity Of
protecting labor i0<recognized, bat the Ia
boring man is assured that this may best
be done not by high duties on foreign
sde goods, but by keeping out the pauper
labor of other countries. The Wilson bill,
" hich the President would not sign, be-
cause, as he charged. It failed to redeem the
partys promises to the people. is TO stand
until the money question has been disposed
of.
The plank in favor Of an income tax will
be warmly resented in the east. The pro-
position has repeatedly been denounced as
porulistic. Mr.. Hills sole reason for re-
fusing to vote for the Wilson bill was be-
cause it embraced a provision for an in
&C me tax.
Gov. Altgeld scores a distinct personal
triumph in the plank respecting the appeal
tc federal courts in local affairs. The ref
erence is to the Debs' strike And yet in
the part he played in that matter the
President received the praise and support
Of every democratic Senator in Congress.
Mr.. Daniel. the temporary presiding officer
at Chicago, Endorsed the Presidents ac-
tion in a speech of much warmth.
The plank respecting the civil service is
curiosity. 1t declares for the merit sys-
tenn. and yet against the security of a
man in his place after he has reached it
by good service. The deliverance is, in eff
feet, clumsily phrased bid for support on
the old spoils basis. Nothing more contra
dictory in terms has appeared in print
since the famous distich wherein the per-
mission to 90 In swimming was coupled
with the solemn injunction not to go near
the water.
The plank against a third term appro-
priateiy goes with a platform designed as
reputation of Mr.. Cleveland from top
10 bottom. And that will probably meet
with the secret sympathy of a good many
sound money democrats, who have COM
planned that the third term specter injured
their cause.
The platform, as whole, is bid for the
discontinued of all parties. Ex-republicans,
fresh from their old camp: ex-democrats,
in the persons of populists row several
years old, and democrats chatting under
eastern domination. are invited to get to-
gether and are encouraged to believe that by
doing so they can sweep the country. Sops
are thrown in every direction. Can such d
play win? The country is in a state of
great unrest. The number of the discon

dorse at the polls policy SO comprehen-
sive in new and revolutionary expedents?
