The zeal with which Superintendent
Smith has applied himself to the so1u-
ton of the financial problem involved
In the affairs of the public schools
leaves no doubt Of his earnest de-
termination to continue st. Paul's
schools in the list of "the best In the
land" He was confronted with this
situation = an appropriation which
would not meet expenses, unless either
the teachers salaries were reduced or
the school term was shortened. He
did not believe in cheapendng the labor
of the teachers and he was opposed to
lessening the length of the terms. This
Is the Minneapolis plan of treating the
public schools and as a st. Paul man
he protested.
Financiering nowadays consists large
ly in the establishment Of economies,
and like wise man the superintendent
applied his pruning knife to the
supplies and provided for consolida-
lions Of labor here and there and
the abolition Of some offices. The fact
that in equitably adjusting salaries a
few teachers will receive little more
compensation will occasion no COM
ment. They weres undoubtedly en-
titled to some such consideration. and
they are to be congratulated upon hav-
ing received it.

Lombroso's Lament.

The Vita Irternazionale, Of Milan.
contains an article from the pen Of
Prof. Lombroso, which is a pitiful la
ment for Italy,s, departing glory. He
names overgthe artists and learned men
who have left or are about to leave
their native land to settle in Northern
and Western countries. 1--WE have no
more military glory" he says; I'VE are
without wealth, without energy and
without political influence, notwith-
standing our pretension to rank among
the great powers. Our only and incon-
testable claim to glory is the produc-
ton of great Municipalities But now
we deliberately ignore that glory and
endeayor to destroy those individuali-
ties" And the learned professor sees
what the Conservative party In Italy
cannot or will not see viz. that, when
the Turks drove men of letters and art
from Constantinople in 1453, Italy at
tracted them only because the Getty
republics" scattered throughout the
peninsula permitted full and free de-
velopment Of their genius; that,
through all the political turmoils of
the succeeding years, even to the uni
fication OF Italy by Cavour, her artists
and her learned men have stayed with
her. And why? Because art and
learning were not molested OF made

That Saratoga Conference.

The national conference in session
at Saratoga Springs on the future for
elgn policy Of the United States has
at least brought forward one clear idea
OF Its usefulness. Patrick A. Collins
Of Boston, an Irishman by birth for.
mer member of congress and con-
sui general to London in Mr.. Cleve1and,s
last administration, has defined with
disCnctness the real policy as it should
be of this country with regard to the
future, associating that future with the
results of our recent war with Spain.
Mr.. Collins expresses the idea which
compasses ''the widest possible extern
sion Of trade and least possible extern
sion Of territory"
This seems to be a thoroughly demo-
cratic and patriotic view to take of the
situation, but into the consideration
OF the several points bearing upon the
outcome Of our war with Spain enter
other problems, into which, we regret to
say, self-seekers and the paid emissa-
ries Of financial enterprises project
themselves. This is no time to talk
about the construction Of the Nicara-
qua canal. This matter has been con-
spicuous before the people of this coun-
try during almost half a century
Adroitly enough, the circumstances as
ISOLATED with our little scrap with
Spain and the somewhat dramatic yoy-
age of the Oregon from the bay Of San
Francisco around the Horn to the
Caribbean sea for the purpose Of union
with the fleet under the command of
Sampson have been awaited Of for the
purpose Of advertising the alleged i'm
portance of the construction Of this
waterway across the continent.
We have here in this convention the
voice of Carl Schurz. Mr.. Schurz ma
triotically declares against accepting
''windfalls from the war" Our first
duty, he claims. is to our republic.

scribed as 1.-The policy of criminal ag-

Sad Fate of a Duluth LAWYER.

Why shouldn't a Minnesota corporal
chase g. round-robin through Chicka-
manga camp as we'll as New York
colonel at Santiago? And why should
he be arrested for "inciting men to
n'utiny" for doing the same? Corporal
Harris. of the Fourteenth Minnesota,
when he isn't soldering, practices law
at Duluth. Even the Job Of Duluth
attorney must be eventful and any,
thing but slow, for the corporal, aweary
with life at Chickanlauga, simply drew
up petition and sent it around among
the boys, just as, as an attorney at law,
he had prepared hundreds Of petitions
to courts and presumably legislatures.
What was said in this tmutinous"
document was sdmply the truth, to wit:
That sit is unjust to ask of us free
citizens Of the republic to neglect our
homes and families and all Of our
business interests to do garrison duty
in distant islands. a duty that must
sooner or later, and the sooner the bet
ter. be entrusted to the regular army"
The government employs men the
year round to soldier for 1t in times
Of peace, and, now that peace has been
declared, 1t can afford to let the law
yers and all others return to their
homes, their families and their business
interests" as the corporal hath It,
Duluth may or may not be lacking in
the number and quality Of her lawyers,
but 1t ought to be plain to Secretary
Alger that he cannot afford to punish
a Minnesota man who simply followed
TcdGU'S ror,lo tn 20 NJ no Io{
press reports tell of the release Of our
Minnesota. corporal, and if Alger knows
just little bit, he will see that he Is
restored to Duluth at the earliest mo-
ment possible. They are q mussy lot,
these lawyers. and what with their
subpoenas and injunctions and collar
ard elbow processes. written in Latin,
but readily understandable in any
court, they can make mischief, even In
O. guard house. Mr.. Alger has drawn
upon himself the condemnation Of
enough American laymen without CIV
ing ofrense to the lawyers. Besides. If
all the signs are true, he will need
staff Of lawyers when congress begins
to investigate him.
Why wouldn't 1t be the thing for the
government W AMEND us regulations,
as soon as 1t becomes permanently es-
tablished on a peace basis? If a camel
cannot pass through the needles eye,
and rich man must be shut out Of
heaven, why shouldn't a United States
lawyer be enjoined from playing
United States soldier and be summarily
executed If he ever turns up within
four miles of q military camp?
But, seriously, it is to be regretted
that the hatchings Of round-robins
should be so different as between the
man from New York and him from
Minnesota. Teddy got home run out
of his. A goose egg and the guard
house fell to the lot Of our Duluth
friend. Of course, he isn't happy, and
we feel bound to sympathize with him,
which we herewith do.
