"Does Modern College Education
Educate, In the Broadcast and Most

of the most important inquiries that
could be set on foot This discussion
which is to be taken part In by Pres

Schurman Of Cornell, President Nor
ton of the Stevens Institute, Henry
Thurston Peck of Columbia, Bishop
Potter and others Of the most dis
tinguished men of both the United
Stales and Europe, is begun in the
April Cosmopolitan by radical in
quiry into tho educational problem
along the lines of Herbert Spencer.
President Gilman will follow In a

Reports from Utah show that the

sugar establishment, fostered by the
Mormon church In that state, have
realized nearly q quarter OF a million
dollars this year In the sale of their

the encouragement which the new

The Elections.

From the returns received 1t seems
that the Republicans of Michigan
won another victory on last Monday.
Judge Long, for Justice of the Su'
preme Court, and Messrs. Cocker and
Lawton for Regents of the UNIVERSE
ty, have a plurality of from fifty to
sixty thousand. The Republican can.
didate for mayor in Detroit, was de-
feated by a small majority, but the
other candidates, City and State, re-
ceived the usual vote. In this coun-
ty the Republicans elect seven of the
nine supervisors, and made gains all
over the county, as the State ticket
has from so to 100 majority, and
would have done still better had the
republicans of this township only
laid aside for once the habit of
scratching their ticket In trying to
show their independence. The Free
Silverites aided by the odds and ends
of every party under the sun, and
the republican scratchers and stay-at-
homes managed to elect all but three
of their candidates by small MAORI
ties, but the Republican State ticket
has a lead of six. The State ticket
and the amendments have small ma
joritles in every township except one,
A more complete account will be Civ
en- after receipt of the Official returns.

Where the Burden Will Rest.
From the New York World.

From the New YORK orld.
Mr.. Dingley makes on the floor of the
house the remarkable assertion that the
burden of restored Mckinley rates will
fall chiefly on 1.-The schedules covering
Injuries like tobacco liquor, silks and
laces.
Against this we have the figures of
Mr.. Dingley's own summary of the
bill, made on the 18th inst From
sugar, - he says, 1--WE estimate $50, :
900 900 additional revenue. We place
the increased revenue from wool at
81 900 600 Anticipating that the i'm :
ports of woolens will fall off nearly SO
per cent. from the enormous imports of
1896, we estimate the increased revenue
from this source under the proposed
rates at $14 900, 900. -
This is total of $25 ,0G0, 900 increase
in the taxes ON woolens admitted by Mr..
Dingley. The table which he published
in this connection showed that his taxes
on wool and woolens, on the basis OF
last year s importations, would be $44,
500 900, as against only 81 500, 600 on
silks, 81 800, 900 on liquors and 81 900,
600 on tobacco.
So it appears from Mr.. Dingley 8 own
figures that for every dollar of increase
on silks, liquors and tobacco combined
he has made 81 of increase on wool and
wooden goods alone. In the face OF
such facts, how absurd it is for him to
keep up the idle false pretense that he is
attempting to relieve the masses or to
force the users of Injuries to bear theiI
share of the burdens of taxation.

Can Sell Hop Ale.

From the Fort Smith Times Democrat
The point and the only point in the
case against John Sharp and Burton
Bones, charged with violating the
intercourse law and selling malt liquors
in the Indian Territory, was whether
the beverage they sold was an
intoxicant.
The defendants are young men who
ran a stand at Hayden last spring while
the Freedmen rolls were being made
up. They sold elders and soda pops,
but their largest trade was in that
popular Indian Territory beverage, Hop
Ale. This is manufactured in st.
Louis and is very weak beer.
1t was for selling this Hop Ale that
Sharp and Bones were indicted All
the witnesses testified that Hop Ale was
not intoxicating. Even the government
witnesses said so. One of the defend
ants witnesses sal he drank half Il
gallon of Hop Ale and found it was
mo good, meaning that it didn {
intoxicate him. Another witness, who
appeared to be familiar with still
houses, said that the drink resembled a
sweetmast before the "singlings are
run.
The defense had quite a number of
chemical analyses of the beverage to
show that the per cent. of alcohol con-
tanned in Hop Ale was too small to
intoxicate.
The jury returned a verdict of not
guilty from the box, as the statute is so
drawn that it is evident that it is
intended To apply only to such beverages
as intoxicate.
