veIoped any business to come before
the Legislature Of general interest, and
those exceptions will not be acted upon

AN EXCELLENT SUGGESTION.

The recommendation of the superin.
{ ndent Of public schools regarding the
rs iicai change and reorganization in
the training school is sppare' tly an
excellent suggestion, aud the (. atures
presented to the school committee for
consideration are worthy of careful at.
tention. The condition of State edu-
rationsl facilities at present are far in
advance of the day in which it was con-
sidered necessary to establish training
school IN this city. As the report states,
it IS fair to presume that al institution
with all the resources OF the State be-
nlnd IT will be in q position to afford
better facilities of academic aid pro-
f-ssional instruction to those desiring
to equip themselves with the kDowl-
edge requisite for q teacher than any
local institution.
One Of the strongest points in the
agument is the saving to the taxpayers
Of the amount necessary each year for
It's maintenance, amounting to about
$4,000. AS the principal question of the
day Is public economy, the suggestion
from the superintendent is aprOpo aud
WI doubtless be adopted.

GOOD CITIZENSHIP.

Commenting upon recent editorial

ticians. even those whose ambitions to
control are only ward wide. will, before
they are aware of 1t, find that the peo.

not to be ignored in the matter of fl l.

The causes for the failure of the reso-
lutions are varied, and some of them
amusing. For instance, ono young
miss confined to her diary the fact that
she was sure she was in love. Now, il
unfortunately happened that the record
was left from under lock and key one
morning and perused by an amused
parent, and the result was that the
young lady was told that she was en-
tirely to young to know her own mind
