Senate o Bailey Of Texas, and Senator
Beveridge of Indiana, had a fight In the
cloak room Of the Senate last Monday.
Beyeridge made a remark which Bailey
thought was a reflection on his (Bai-
ley's) honor, and declining to withdraw
it at Baiiey's request, Bailey choked
the Indiana Senator. The affair was
~disgracefnl. but the country is not
startled at such scenes Of rOwdyism
now, as it used to be.

shadows of industrial education, the
literary college with industrial eau
dial appendage and the A. and M. Col
lege with literary ears, walked before
each other, walked over and under
and through each other, braying and
gesticulating and attitudinizing be-
fore the public, each claiming to be
what the other was, and each know
ing that its claim was pure nonsense
The time has come when the pub
lie will no longer endure sham indus
trial education. The ~"9iterary indus
trials" must take off their caudals
and the industrial ~literaries" must
take off their ears. The wisest of
them have done so. The real indus
trial school is a school for the train
ing of workers; not mere workers,
not mere thinkers, but men who car
both work and think. Such a school
requires of every pupil, from the very
beginning of his pupilage, as much
handcraft as headcraft. 1t tests him,
or trains him, as the case may be.
in fOrgeshop, at carpenters bench
at turning-lathe, in foundry, in pat
tern-shop, in drawing and designing
room, or in dairy, greenhouse, barn
orchard, garden, and field. By do,
ing work along these many simple
lines, a lad discovers which industrial
career he is best fitted for by nature
and he then begins to do more skilled
work, more advanced work, along the
special lines of his chosen industrial
career. He may become a thinker
and an inventor, as we'll as a skilled
worker; if not, he will be at least 6
skilled worker instead of a mere
laborer. Lads who are unwilling tC
do this sort of work, several hours
daily, unwilling to get their hands
soiled and hardened by tools and ma
chinery and hard physical labor, who
do not wish to wear overalls and tC
be taught by professors in o~veralls
such lads are unfit for industrial
careers. Let them go to literary col
Ieges and be trained for literary pro
f~essions. Let the industrial colleges
be honest, and tell them to leave. Anc
let the literary colleges be honest, anc
not encourage the wasting o.
precious years in the vain endeaVo.
or the shallow pretense of learning
literature, languages and p~hilosoph!
bv lads who have no talent nor in
clination for such culture, but WIZ
can be taught to work, even to de
skilled work.

There is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney and
bladder remedy, fulflls every wish
in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every
part of the urinary passage. It cor
reefs inability to hold water and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine
or beer, and OvercOmes that unpleas-
ant necessity of being compelled to
go often during the day, and to get
up many times during the night. The
mild and the extraordinary effect of
Swamp-ROOt is soon realized. 1t
stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.
If you need a medicine you should
have the best. Sold by druggists in
ffty-cent and one-dollar sizes.
You may have a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root, the great kidney RENE

CORRESPONDENCE
ms ON INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION

The Shadow and the Substance.

,,,or Of The Progressive Farmer

great ueal Is Sdlu III" audJS
.bo,t industrial education, and the
srb;c mind is full of the subject.
Newspapers and magazines discuss
:, and schools, colleges and univer-
,;t;os find it fashionable to teach it.
There is a very real industrial ed
,.o+ion and a very sham industrial
.4rcation. The substance and the
shadow are here, as everywhere else
in life.
Forty years ago Senator Morrill,,
II Vermonpt. secured the enactment
# law by the United States Con-
cross establishing industrial colleges
IN each State and Territory. Public
lands we're granted for their endow-
ment. North Carolina received &c.,
MO acres When the Morrill, act was
rassed there was little interest in or
knowledge Of industrial education
among our people. The result was,
in the different States, a great varie-
" of views. a great variety of plans
for industrial colleges, and perfect
concord on one point onlY,-the adj
visibility Of getting the money.
In some States the new idea of in
d~ustriaI education was taken up by
the existing State college or univer-
sity, the funds were thus secured
from Washington, and the farmer
and the mechanic we're set up IN
classic halls beside the lawyer, the
preacher, the poet and the orator,
and all we're proclaimed to be "of
equal dignity and honor" No prac-
teal instruction nor manual train
ing was given, but great stress was
laid upon the sciences, the Ian
guages, mathematics, history, phil
OsOphy, literature, and other studies
essential to a full understanding of
agricultural and mechanical pur-
suits, and especially essential to
maintain the dignity and honor of
the Iaboring professions and expand
the mind Of the farmer"
In other States were established
separate colleges; schools of technol-
ogy, or POLYTECHNIC Institutes, but us,
uaIly agricultural and mechanical
colleges. Most of these from their
very foundation, were low grade and
pretentlous limitations of already ex,
lShng literary colleges and UNIVERSE
ues, Having procured a verv small
equipment of tools, machinery, ap'
paratus, animals, land and buildings
and having framed a curriculum Of
industrial instruction with a mini
mum requirement of manual wOrl
ana technical study and training
Ihey organized general courses o.
study with practically no industrial
features, granted such degrees a:
literary and classical colleges usually
grant, and emphasized the ~necessit!
OF broad and liberal culture for in
oostrial workers, especially of liter
AZURE, philosophy, languages, history
ETC. etc" And, so, the agriculture
and mechanical college shadow rest

sixth term at the same time. The 9th
er three are now serving their sixth
terms.
No other living man has served so
long in the legislative halls of his coun-
trv as Senator Allison. His eight
wears in the House, added to his thirty
years in the Senate, give him record
of continuous service of thirty-eight
wears. Yet to-day he is hale and hearty
and his face is rosy and plump as any
GIRLS. While he has been hard work
err and a fairly good liver, his life mas
been an even one, and he has not al
lowed the chase for the dollar nor the
ambitions of politics to contract and
distort his soul. Always well dressed,
he makes you think of a New York
clubman or banker rather than or the
average American statesman. HIS
black clothes are we'll cut, and the lin
on of his shirt and his broad, expan-
sive collar. which exceeds even that of
William NJ. Evarts in size, is of the
finest material and as white as the
driven snow. His hair has whitened
and it is fast becoming iron gray. His
eve. however, is bright. and the rosy
corpuscles that shine through his fair
skin show that his blood is full of iron.
Allison is probably the best politician
in the Senate.
The learning of George F. Hoar of
Massachusetts, is almost revered by
his fellow Senators. He is regarded as
the ablest lawyer and the most pro-
found scholar in the upper house. He
Is nerfectly infexible in the matter of
nrinciple. People who are moved to
temporize, to compromise or abate in
the interest of courtesy are sometimes
impatient of the man who says: This
is right; l will advocate, maintain and
enforce it," Such a man is Hoar.
Morgan of Alabama hits straight
from the shoulder. He Is a fighter who
knows not compromise, and to whom
surrender is an unknown word. Witness
his fight for an Isthmian canal.
Through dark days, when few believed
that an interocean waterway was pos
sible. he strove for it, and now he sees
his dream nearing a realization. He
was ever fighter. He Joined the Con
federate army in 1861 as private, and
before the war closed was operating as
a brigadier general, with Longstreet,
Johnston and Hood. He practiced law

Stole Northport smeIter Gold.

Rossland, B. C.-Peter Swanson a
saloonkeeper from Northport, Wash,
was arrested here on the charge Of
having stolen goods in his possession.
His arrest is the outcome of a cam
paign against a ring Of thieves who
have been stealing matte from the
Northport smelter for some time. The
matte is valued at from $3.50 to $1,000
per pound, and it is an easy matter
for men about the works to put a
pound or two in their pockets. This
has been done and the swag traded
at saloons about Northport until the
practice became notorious.
Swanson's place was a well known
fence for stolen matte, and when Swan
son came to Rossland he had about
100 pounds of the stuff, valued at $1,000,
in his possession. John S. Ingram,
chief of police, made the arrest, and
Swanson was promptly arrained on a
charge of having stolen goods in his
possession. He pleaded guilty to the
charge The maximum penalty is Ia
years Imprisonment. He implicated
others.
