Education and Trnininr.

\ human being wants a whole de- yelopment-educaton of himself. Tn school he hopes to gain the essential saSis for and an impetus toward this whole development. But he also wants particular development One may prefer to teach or preach or sing or practice law or practice medicine or keep books or be a mechanic or con duct a factory. And he expects vari- ous schools to prepare him accord ingly.
 Now this specialization is very well. But one must not neglect the general development for the special develop- ment. If he mistakes the develon- ment of his talents for the practice or medicine for education. he will lack just that of becoming the man he might become. If he faneies that special preparation for the ministry VIII stand him instead of general preparation to live his life to the fullest, he will fail of his life and of his calling. In a word. there is no price so dear as that which one pays when he sacrifices education for mere iraining-the man for the talent.- Biblical Recorder.

Congress who at tend these conventions. and who wit ness the enthusiasm with which the>e e declarations are received, return 10 Washington with a better acquaint- ance with public sentiment and are in better position to act intelligently in behalf of their constituencies
 IL will not do to minimize the fact that in states like Iowa and Minnesota and Idaho, which have recently Spok- en. the people propose to get al the trust evil in some effective manner. and that they propose to have such tariff schedules as are sheltering thes e trust combines removed.

WORKOUT buGEY PHRASES.
Republicans Railing Upon All Who Are in Favor of a Revision
 of the Tariff.

An angry resentment of the popular demand for tariff revision is the most noticeable characteristic of republic an comment thereon. making plain the truth that republican uuwillingness to act against the monopolies enjoyed by the trusts units that party for service to the people.
 The leading organs of republicanism stigmatize as "tariff-smashers" all those who are in favor of a revision of the tariff. The only variant of thi. fla vorite term in which they indulge is the second-choice epithet. business killers which they employ hopefully as tending to deter voters from q con elusive insiStence upon tariff revision. In their desperation they are preach ing the doctrine that the maintenance of monopoly iS necessary to the pros peritx of the masses. says the St. Louis Republic.

POLITICAL DRIFT.

If We wait for an amendment to the constitution before we begin to control the trusts the trusts have nothing to indianapolis News tInd1.
 So the movement for freer trade spreads. We rejoice that it is so. If We can only have. at present. a dem ocratic party capable of dealing with this great question. we may hope that the republican party as whole will model itself after the pattern offered by the republicans of Iowa and Idaho indianapolis News Ond).
 The exact position of republicans is that an unjust tariff is crying ont for urgent revision. That they are the only ones who can 60 the work. ard that they will do it just one dax after neser.

SOUTHERN EDUCATION
THE EDUCATIONAL REVIVAL.
An Awakening Needed in Our Coun- try schooIs-Things the Peo-
 pie should Demand.

There is being awakened a wide spread interest in education. Through l out the country the attention of the l people is being called to this great
 matter. The condition of our schools, 1 both secular and denominational. is being looked carefully into, and large 1 plans for their improvement are being
 projected. Specially do the schools in the rural regions call for immedia- ate and thoughtful attention. Our scheme of public school education in
 the country. in many places,is scarce ly worthy the name. and are hardly
 more than excuses for schools. With
 miserable houses, only the most sim
 pie and crude apparatus, poorly equipped teachers. only a few months
 in session. and with inadequate diree- ton and superintendence, it is quite | impossible to have such schools as
 the times demand.
 It is high time our people were
 moved in this matter. Public schools have come tosstay, and they must be made adequate to the great work committed to them. The best men in the country should be made superin-
 tendents and school commissioners. and should give themselves with great | seriousness and industry to the | charge of the duties of this office The best men in the community should deem it an honor To be per
 mitted to serve on the school board. Fewer and better houses should be
 secured, trained and mature teachers
 employed, and more months occu-
 pied
 These things our people should de mand, and continue to demand until l they are secured Let it be under stood that our schools are not sim ply 10 furnish employment 10 the fa- yorite daughters of q neighborhood. but a place for honest and hard work
 on the part of men and women that
 have been highly and thoroughly
 trained for their life work Let our people be stirred 10 serious thought
 and action in these things. and not
 take il for granted that things are bound To remain as they are. Speak
 out in meeting whenever things are not what they ought fo be It k the right of an honest taxpayer to get the best for his money. and nowhere
 is it so important 10 get the best as in our public schools Baptist Un-

for the same products. They fail to feel 'pro> porous" merely because the cost of living in this country has been tremendously increased in order that the food trusts should make eXor- bitant profits and pay millions in diyi- dends t0 a few multi-millionaire mo- nopolists. They can only see and feel that the Dingley tariff is a mighty good thing for the trusts and mighty bad thing for the people.
 Nor is there any popular apprehen- sion of American trade being injured by revision of the tariff. American merchants and manufacturers are un- derselling their competitors in all the markets of the world. They are more than equal to holding their own in American markets. They can. without the slightest danger of loss. do with out the protection" of a tariff whose duties are necessarily paid by Ameri- can consumers. They are very sure that business will be healthier when a healthy competition is possible and when individual enterprise and the conduct of smaller business concerns stand some show of profit There is no prosperity for the people in the fact that few hundred trust mag mates. out of a population of nearly so000000 souls, make fortunes every year and proceed to spend the bulk of those fortunes in foreign lands.
 That form of "tarifT-Smas hing which would revise the Dingley tariff to the wholesome basis of a tariff for revenue only is heartily favored by American public sentiment. This sen timent is so strong, indeed. a> to make tariff reform the leading issue of the day, Republican organs can no lorger frighten American voters by calling them "tariff-smas hers" and "bu>iness- killers" The only business 10 be killed is the monopoly business. and the only tariff to be smashed k the un- just Dingley tariff that has created and maintained the monopoly business at the sore cost of the people.

ACCUSING OF THE PEOPLE.
Even by Members of the Pro- lection Party.

Whatever may be the outcome of the present tariff agitation such res olutions as were adopted in the Idaho republican state convention show con- clusively what the rank and fife Of the people are thinking. Without serious opposition the convention declared:
 That many of the industries Of this country have outgrown their infancy ard the market of the world and is successfully competing with the manufacturers Of all other countries We therefore favor re- delay which will place upon the free list every article and product controlled by any monopoly aId such other articles and products as are beyond the need Of pro- lection"
 This is a stronger declaration than the one in the Iowa platform because it was written later. II is an eXcep- tionally clear and straightforward ex- pres>ion of the real feelings of the peo- pie of the west. says the Des Moines Reporter and Leader (rep.).
 Such resolutions as these are to he commented not only for their fearless frankness. but also because they indi- cate popular interest in the public policies af the nation. II is right and proper that the people should in this connection exert an influence on party

EDUCATIONAL ENTHUSIASM.
The Educational spirit of the Sout, Is Becoming Aroused to n
 Healthy Pitch.

The south is punctuated all over at this season svith educational meet fngs, conventions of teachers, insti- tutes, Chautauquas and summer nor mals. where thousands of our teach CTS are assembled and eagerly pursu- ing studies in the great art to which they are devoted. The reports. indi- cate that exceptional enthusiasm is manifest among these educators. and that valuable knowledge and inspira- tions are being absorbed by them from erudite and progressive lectnr- CTS. That sort of enthusiasm. well directed, can not but confer great benefits upon the educational work of the south. Most of the teachers are engaged in primary instruction. and are the products of the homes of the people who have felt the first fervor for popular instruction and trained the first fruits of the.familv for that work. These young people carry back from their summer schools and conventions the best th.ughts and zeal for the best methods that are given them from the most com petent authorities. And thus the public mind of the south is bcinq yearly better informed and more earnestly affected for widespread and practical popular education. In due time the results will appear in legfs- lation, our schools will be extended and perfected ungrudginely. and the repul>lve blot of abnormal illiteracy will be forever erased from the rec ords of southern citizenship. The Constitution rejoices in the prospect to that result opened up by the la oors and enthusiasm of all these southern educational assemblies.-At- lanta Constitution.
