THE CENSUS FRAUDS.

The tial Of the parties who were
arrested fer making alleged fraudulent
1eturns of the Federal census is in
progress in the United States District
Court in Baltimore and is creating
considerable interest. The testimony
taken thus far is very damaging to the
accused. Charles H. GLyther, who
has pleaded guilty, was an important
witness. lie identified letter which
is dated the day before the experts left
Washington written by Mr.. Ching
which showed that there must have
been advance information of their
coming and the nature of the investi-
CATION which was about to be made.
The testimony altogether shows that
there were some strange proceedings
and tends to implicate in the conspiracy
other persons besides those under trial
who appear to have been plant tools
of desperate gang.

OLD METHODS OF SCHOOL
TEACHING.

Americans are found now and then OBJ
servant enough to note some of the faults
of the public school system, and courage
GUS enough to advocate changes, in the
face of the opposition that is certain to
come from those who stand as sponsors
for that system. 1t is interesting, theIe e.
fore, to get the opinion of foreigner on
that subject.
Mr.. Wyndham, the British consul at
Chicago, in recent report to his govern
ment, referred to the schools of that city,
by saying that "citizens' committee had
pointed out the necessity of teachin g
fewer subjects in the schools, and geo.
graphy, history, and English more thor
oughly.
This implied criticism leads the Record
Herald to say: I'VE do not know that
any attention has cen paid to the point.
ing by those in authority, but it is fairly
indicative Of public sentiment, neverthe-
less, and may be so considered in Eng
land. The American experiment is multi
plying studies is a dead failure, as might
have been anticipated. 1t precludes con-
centration and thoroughness and leads to
that ridiculous and shallow affectation of
omniscience which is coming to be more
and more characteristic of much that
passes for the intellectual! life of the
country"
This is the complaint that is heard in
all the big cities. In Washington, year
or two ago, Senate committee showed
how the public schools failed in their
purpose in an educational sense, and faults
have been found in the present system al
most everywhere. Some day the men at
the head of the schools will discover that
more practical education and not frills
and fads is what the people desire. There
must lie a return, at least part way, to
the old method of teaching the rudiments
and teaching them thoroughly.

EDITORS ANNUAL OUTING.

The annual outing of the Democratic
editors of Maryland this year was marked
by many pleasant experiences. The CO.
torie of friends numbering about thirty
left Baltimore on Friday afternoon, the
Gath of May as the guests of Mr.. Henry
Williams, the popular and courteous
President of the Weems Steamboat Com
pany, and on board the elegant boat, the
Richmond, made trip to Fredericksburg
and back lasting five days. The members
of the Association and the ladies were the
recipients of many courtesies not only
from the officers of the steamer, but from
the citizens of Fredericksburg. They
spent a part of two days in the historic
city, visited the points of interest, made
the acquaintance of many of its courteous
citizens and returned with many delight
full "reminiscences of the journey.

SUPREME COURT DECISIONS.

The United States Supreme Court Mon
day handed down its opinions in the
Porto RIGA cases dealing with the right of
the Government to impose tariff duties.
In the De Lima case it was held that it
deals with the transitional stage, and the
majority opinion was to the effect that
territory acquired by the United States is
part of the United States and not a for
eign territory. The Court decided that
import duties upon goods from that island
could not be levied at that time. This
decision was against the Government.
In the Downes case, dealing with the
legality of the exaction of duties on goods
sent from Porto Rico to New York after
the passage of the Foraker act, it was held
that these eXactions were constitutional
This decision was in favor of the Govern
ment.
The Chief Justice dissented from the
above opinion, holding that the source of
national power in this country is the Con-
stitution, and the Government, as to our
iiieSA hoi aiAuii posSCSSCS LIZ Sot
ereign power not derived from that in
strument, and inconsistent with its spirit
In concurring with the Chief Justice,
Justice Harlan held that Congress has no
authority outside of the Constitution which
created it.
In effect Mondays majority opinions
mean that Congress has power under the
Constitution to prescribe the manner of
collecting the revenues of the country's
insular possessions and has right to lay
duty on goods imported from this coun-
try into them. For taxation purposes the
insular ports are not as much part of the
United States as is New Orleans in deal
ing with New York
