OUR SMALLER COLLEGES.

In Many Respects They Are Doing
Better Work Than the Larger.
There are few striking facts about
the small American college, writes Ed
ward w. Box in Ladies' Home Journal.
One striking fact is that 60 per cent.
of the brainiest Americans who have
risen to prominence and success are
graduates of colleges whose names are
scarcely known outside of their own
states. It is fact, also, that during the
past ten years the majority of the new
and best methods of learning have
emanated from the smaller colleges,
and have been adopted later by the
larger ones. Because college happens
to be unknown 200 miles from the place
of it's location does not always mean
that the college is not worthy of wider
repute. The fact cannot be disputed
that the most direct teaching, and
necessarily the teaching most produc-
tive of good results, is being done in
the smaller American colleges. The
names of these colleges may not be IA
miliar to the majority of people, but
that makes them none the less worthy
places of learning. The larger colleges
are unquestionably good. But there
are smaller colleges just as good, and,
in some respects, better. Some of the
finest educators we have are attached
to the faculties of the smaller institu-
lions of learning Young girls OF
young men who are being educated at
one Of the smaller colleges need never
feel that the fact of the college being a
small oneplaces them at "a disadvantage
in comparison with the friend or COM
panion who has been sent to larger
and better-known college. It is not the

WOLCOTT IS HOT.

Senator Wolcott is warm under the collar,
and threatens to make a hearty and earnest
fight for silver. He says Mckinley pretended
to be friend of silver, and sent him OIL FOOLS
errand to Europe, knowing full we'll that the
European nations would only listen to his talk
OH bimetalism to make sport of him and laugh
in his face Wolcott is humiliated--he is mad
and has slipped big, ugy-looking knife up
his sleeve, threatening to spill some gore. He
says McKinley's friendship for silver was only
pretended.
Poor Woicott He has just learned that Nc
Knley is poor miserable, cringeing tool of
Mark Hanna and his characteress pals in rob-
berry, oppression and other legalized crime. He
is the weakest man that ever occupied the
presidential chair. Others besides Senator
Wolcott have learned this, and still others will
find it out before his term of Office expires.
We are glad that Senator Wolcott had his
eyes opened at last.

Cy Leland'S Supreme LittleneSS.

Cy Leland's latest deed involves the abolish
nent of the postoffice at Orr, Doniphan county,
because the township went Populist last fall and
defeated a relative of Leland who was running
for office.
Orr is small place the B. & M, and the
citizens of the town and surrounding country
enjoyed the facilities of daily mail. When
the citizens of the cmmunity voted in a ma
jority for a Populist, Leland sat down, wrote
letter to J. L. Bristow, and the little postoffice
was abolished
The people of the community, which is
thriving one, are now compelled TO go long
distance, either to Palermo or Geary City, for
their mail.

notified that the little Office would be abolished

two prominent Republicans-a lawyer and an

count came up, and the two Republicans con-
demned the movement, declaring to be nothing
but Leland scheme to furnish places for his

need another federal court. Why, one able

THERE are some fellows i'll congress who
ought to be in the insane asylum-or the peni-
Tertiary. Some of them, just now, want to
increase the rate of postage paid by the news
papers, ON the ground that they ale bnidef
to the postal department. and that the cheap
rate now in force benefits one but the pub
Usher; that the general public receives no ben
eft whatever. Speaking of the latter state
ment first, we will say that every person who
reads newspapers is benefited by the low rate.
If higher were charged, the publisher would
he OBLIGED to add the extra amount to the price
of his paper. These fellows who are so very
so,icitous for the welfare of the people do Eot
seem to take into account the fact the railroads
of the country are receiving over ten million
dollars more per year than they should receive
for carving the mails. They also forget that
their class of congressman are burdenlng the
postal department by a gross abuse OF the
ranking privilege by sending by mail hundreds
and thousands of articles, yearly, that should
be sent by freight. Let congress do away with
the franking privilege entirely, or put 1t to its
legitimate use only, and then pay the railroads
inst what they should receive for carrying the
mails, and the postal department will not only
be self-supporting, but there will be hand
some surplus, and the newspapers need not he
disturbed.

it is common talk among many who know them

CLEVELAND AN EDUCATOR. 1t is re-
ported that ex-President Cleveland
will in November be formally tender
ed the Office of president Of the Uni
versity Of Virginia. Heretofore the
chairman of the faculty has been at the
head of the University. The invita-
ton would have been made to MIR.
Cleveland after the fnals last month
had it not been for the hot dissension
that rent the meeting in twain and sue
cessfully thwarted any action for the
present.
The dissension arose from the fact
that the name of Gordon McCabe was
proposed as prospective president for
the university. Mr.. McCabe has 8
strong political backing in Virginia,
and especially in and about Richmond,
but is said to be unpopular with the fac
ulty. When it was seen that this politi-
cal pull was to be exerted to have the
nomination of MIR. McCabe insured, the
meetings grew stormy to the point that
the faculty arose and declared they
would resign in body if McCabe was
elected president of the university
