THE NATIONAL UNIVERSITY.
10 the Editor Of the Press:

10 the Editor of the Press:
The question is very properly asked
why do we want National University?
"A complete and admirable reply Is fur
nlshed by the following extract from the
report on the subject made to the United
States Senate in 1894 by the Hon. Eppa
Hunton, senator from Virginia:
In the opinion of your committee such
an institution should be deemed neces-
| sary, first of all, on account Of the SUI
preme work 1t would do in every division
OF the educational feld-work at present
but very partially and soatteringly done
at those few institutions so fortunate as
to have concurrence Of competent men
with the means requisite to the support
| of systematic courses of postgraduate in
structiop.
SO. 1t would powerfully contribute to
the improvement of the wholesseries of
schools Of the country, from the kinder
garten to tho university.
4 80. 1T would correlate, broaden, elevate
| and strengthen the entire circle OF these
called professions, not only furnishing
| but indirectly elsewhere ompelling bet
ter preparation for professional studies,
with higher standards of professional at
| tainments, and hence broader and NOR :
| thorough courses of instruction. e
"A. Tt would prove a most Important
means of supplying to multitude OF In
dustrial occupations the scientific princl-
pies requisite to their highest success,
thus Identifying labor and building up
many nav professions.
$50. 1t would enlarge the field Of human
knowledge by means of the original re-
searches and Investigations of it's mem
| bers while, at the same time Inducing
students of genius into the art of inves-
| tigation, thus helping mankind to an
| earlier mastery over the hidden forces of
nature.
| 80 Such an institution would prove a
powerful defender, as well as discoverer
and teacher of truth.
s'7. The proposed university 1s patri-
otto necessity. It would secure to us as
a great people the independence we need
In things intellectual. 1t would strength
| en- our love of country and prove new
1 and powerful safeguard OF free institu-
tions. 1t would gather to its seat not
only persons of genius and OF lofty aspi-
rations from all PORTIONS of the Union,
but from all parts of the civilized world,
thus at once stopping the present exodus
to foreign institutions for advantages we
do not here furnish, and turning the tide
of superior learning to our own shores.
| It would help the United States to COM
tiianding influence as benificent power
among the nations; to a practical leader
ship in the march of civilization. -
This extract seems to embody many ex-
cellent arguments in favor Of great GEN.
trail university and to explain the enthu-
siasm with which the revival of this
great scheme is meeting throughout the
country.
1t has only been necessary to give this
project wider and more general publici-
ty to enlist the interest Of the communi.
ty and to obtain the aid of all who be-
I lieye that the solution Of the troublesome
problems of the present is to be found in
the better education of the future.

Rescript, Savage, jim this case it is
held that Rodericlg, the foreman in charge
OF the Grew operating the grinders in the
defendants mill, was fellow servant
OF the plaintiff, who operated one of the
grinders, and that the defendant is not
responsible to the plaintiff for any INJURY
caused by the negligence of Roderick, as
follow servant.
1t was the duty of the defendant to pro-
vide good and sufficient machinery for
the plaintiff to operate, and to exercise
reasonable care in keeping it SO; but the
defendant is not responsible for the neg
lect and unauthorized act of Rodef lex, in
plugging the pipe, unless there was also
negligence on the part of those whose
duty it was to make repairs in not dis
covering the dangerous condition before
the accident occurred, and that there was

Hernism Of Policemen.

Hon Theodore Roosevelt contributes
paper to the October Century on THE Roll
of, Honor of the New York Police" his ar
ticle being one of the series in this maya
zine on Heroes of Peace" Mr.. Roosevelt
incidentally describes his efforts and those
of his associates to reform the police force
in New York, and he tells of the work
ings of their plan to reward, heroism by
promotion wherever possible. Mr.. Roose.
welt says: doubt if the average citizen.
especially the average stay-at-home citi.
zen, realizes how often the man of the
night-stick is called upon to display quail,
ties which in soldier would be called
heroic. His feats in saving life or in ar.
resting dangerous criminals, alone and at
night, attract no special attention when
mentioned in the newspapers; but they
often imply just as much courage as those
of the man who captures an enemy's flag
in battle, or plants his own flag on a hos
tile parapet. The men of the New York
police force represent all the different
creeds and different race origins that go to
the makeup of our stock; but they all be-
come good Americans who pay no heed TO
differences of creed or race.
