Respectfully submitted,

Dated Oct. 49, 1899. Mayor.
Alderman Cooley moved to sustain
the veto and called for an aye and nay
vote. Alderman C. F. Brennan moved
an amendment to adhere to previous
action the veto notwithstanding. The
result was a vote of twelve for the
amendment and six against it, the
| members voting as follows:
Ayes-Messrs. C. F. Brennan Corco-
ran, Whitaker, Norris. Weiss, Staub,
Atwater, Unger Chillingworth, Hall,

President Hogan declared the amend
ment lost as it had not received a two
thirds vote of all the members present
and absent, as is required to pass over
the mayors veto Alderman Hall
raised the point that the amendment
only required a majority vote to pass
it, although the main question as
amended would require a two-thirds
vote. He appealed from the decision of
the chair and the appeal was sustained
by vote of 10 to s. Then before
vote could be taken on the main ques-
ton amended, Alderman ChiIlngworth
moved to refer the entire matter to
special committee to invite the mayor,
fire commissioners and firemen TO APP
pear and state their views on the mat
ter. This was amended by Alderman
Walsh to require the committee to re-.
port back in fifteen days, and the mo-
ton as amended was, passed

THE BOARD OF ALDERMEN
The text of the veto follows:

The text of the veto follows:
TO the Honorable Court of Common
Council
Gentlemen-I return with my disap-
prevail the order passed by your hon
orable body fixing the salary and COM
pensation of officers and employees of
the fire department.
One reason for my disapproval is
that the several sums fixed in the or
der are not only much higher than
those paid at present, but higher than
have ever been paid in the history of
the department, and much higher, SO
far as l can learn, than are paid in
any other city in the United States of
the size of New Haven. Another reason
for my disapproval is the present Grip
pied condition of the fire department,
for want of additional engines, horses
and men. Two engines much needed
for service, are lying idle for want of
horses and men. Some of the compa-
MES are short of men, and the houses
and apparatus are much in need of re-
pairs
These needs should be first supplied
in order to afford sufficient protection
against fire, particularly in the manu-
featuring districts.
There cannot be an increase in all
directions in all the city departments
without making the rate of taxation
unbearable to our citizens; and what
ever increase Is made should be to meet
the pressing needs of the city, and not
to raise salaries to a heretofore unheard
of figure.
If the rate of wages which existed in
1898 should be restored, it seems to me
that is all that can be reasonably asked
by the firemen, as that rate is higher
than is paid in most cities of the size of

Probably no single topic is of interest
to more people than that of popular edu-
cation. The great advances that have
been made within the past twenty-five
wears, since the children themselves have
been taken up as subjects of study, and
closer attention has been given to meth
DDS of treating them SO as to develop
the differing capacities of individual
scholars, have been most encouraging.
The impulse of this new departure came
from that cratic genius Rousseau, whose
treatise on education in his Emile, OF
a hundred years ago, was the inspiration
of Pestalozzi and his successor, Froebel,
the inventor of the kindergarten; while
He1bart, the German psychologist in the
first third of the present century, was
a most systematic writer on the art OF
education, and Herbert Spencer's keen
thrrsts and sledgehammer blows aroused
the English-speaking World of educators
to the beginning of better things forty
years ago. In our own land many &C
comDliShed men have devoted themselves
to the development of education as a
more prominent and successful than Will
liam T. Harris, the present United States
commissioner of education; Prof. Mich
olas Murray Butler, Of Columbia uni
versity. and President Charles w. Eliot,
of Harvard, all Of whom take peculiar
and effective interest in the Improvement
of our common school system.
Educational Nuggets" is little book
of strikingly suggestive extracts on many
thaca writer's
and, by way of showing how the germs
of the most modern thought may be
found in the most spiritual of the
ancients these are prefaced by series
of equally interesting thoughts from
Plato and Aristotle. The compiler, Mr.
John r. Howard, in his brief predatory
note calls attention to the real unity of
spirit underlying all these authors sep
arated as they are by hundreds and even
thousands of years. No teacher, no par
ent, and no thoughtful person likely to
become either one or the other, but would
benefit deeply by scanning and needing
these admirable selections from such
scholars in the science and experts in the
art of practical education.

matter of climate than are Europeans,
but in this, am sure, the generalization
is based upon too narrow an exam1na-
ton of the facts, for the worldwide Sig
nificance of the white race has been rec
ognized throughout history. Very good
is the discrimination between the habits
of life that make climate dangerous and
the essential characteristics of race that
give more or less immunity.
Altogether, DR. Ripley has produced an
important book, which is a credit to
American scholarship and timely con-
tribution to our knowledge for the solu-
ton of pressing problems.
'.The War With SPAIN
"The War With SPAIN" by Hon. Henry
Cabot Lodge Harper & Bros, New
York, publishers For sale by the ot'
In a volume of 450 pages Harper q
Bros. have published "The War With
Spain,' by Hon. Henry Cabot Lodge, SEN
ator from Massachusetts, and member OF
the committee on foreign relations during
the progress of the war Senator Lodge
has already shown such unusual ability
as a historian that one feels conhdent
that out of all the books which have been
written about the Spanish-American war
this comprehensive history should be
in the least detail does THE War With
Spain" disappoint this expectation, and 1t
must certainly stand as the standard rec
ord of the war. The writer shows
throughout that he is clear-sighted'
thoughtful man, who not only traces the
history of the Latin and Anglo-SaXon
races in the New World from the earnest
times and points out the underlying
causes of the war, but who writes with
vigor and dramatic power that lends ne"
interest to the oft-told tale of our war
with Spain. 1t is in every sense OF Inc
word stirring narrative
Senator Lodge points out that the hnal
expulsion of Spain from the Americas is
but the fit conclusion of the long strife
between the people who stood for civil
and religious liberty and those who stood
for bigotry and tyranny as hideous In
their action as any which have ever
cursed humanity. 1t IS the last ana maj
step of the memorable movement IN
which the United States has been engaged
for nearly a century. By her influence
and example or more directly by. hef
arms and by the pressure of her ever
advancing settlements, the United States
drove, Spain from all her continental pos
sessions in the Western hemisphere untll
nothing was left to the successors OIL
Charles and Philip but Cuba and Puerto
Rico. The first part Of the history dis
cusses the entire Cuban question and the
relations which have existed between the
United States and Spain during the pres
ent century. Of the war itself, its con-
duct, it's campaigns and battles senator
Lodge gives a thoroughly admlraple ue-
scrintfon and criticism. 1t is certainly
the only complete and comprehensive his
tory of the war, by an able historian,
that will be offered to the American pub
lice. No pains have been spared IN max
ing it a book worth reading and worth
preserving. It contains no less than
eighty full-page illustrations.
