Denver Jan. 26.-Ex-Senator Ed
ward O. Wolcott has issued an address
ITO the Republicans of Colorado IN
which he comedies the reelection OF
Senator Teller and lays the blame OF
the Republican defeat to the action Oh
his opponents in the party.
Mr.. Wolcott says in part:
''The seed sown on the opening day
of the legislative session has borne It's
certain fruit. The inevitable has hap
pened, and the conspiracy entered into
between a few Republicans and the
Democracy has brought the only result
possible, the election of a Democratic
United States senator from COLORADO.
The terms of the fusion or deal are un-
important: they will some day. be fully
exposed. and the degradation ana as
honor that has come to the party in the
senatorial election indicate the heavy
price the Republican conspirators paid
for the coalition.
There were three joint sessions OF
the General Assembly. At the last one
fifty-one Democrats voted for Mr.. Tel
Ter. No other Joint sessions have been
held. and no Republican has voted IN
any Joint session. The election OF Mt
Teller is tinctured with fraud; iirst IN
the trickery of the adjournment by the
Democrats of the House: second IN the
arbitrary and fraudulent expulsion OF
two legally elected senators. Ihere ls'
however, for the reasons given above
now no other legally constituted SEN
ate, as there might have been but ior
this conspiracy. and il is now TOO iate
to undo the wrong, and by unseatihs
the frauduIently elected members ron
Arapahoe county insure the valid elec-
ton of a Republican senator.
"The welfare of the state requires
that there be no possible ques.ion OF
doubt as to the legal status OF the wv
legislative bodies. Important laws are
to be passed, moneys. must be lawfully

The Menace of Indifference.

The greatest dangers that threaten us to-day
are not from the ignorant and vicious classes.
These are a minority. They are but a fraction
of the governing body. Our great danger lies in
the Indifference of intelligent citizens. They have
grown tired of the bitter fights of the practical
political arena. They have grown Disguised with
the corruption and the stencil of the political
mob. To keep out of a dog fight, they have de-
serted and given the State over to the dogs. Many
of these people too are lazy. They are too lazy to
vote, too lazy to think. Besides, they hope to
escape jury duty by not registering. Men are
not excused in the army because they become dis
gusted with the filth of camp and hospital life.
They must stand by their post. Neither are sol
diers excused for laziness. The man who deserts
is shot. There is no excuse allowed. The man
who deserts the ballot has no excuse. He should
be punished as a criminal. Not to the ignorance
and vice of electors must we charge the extrava-
gances, disgraces and corruptions of our State,
National and municipal governments. We must
charge it primarily to the negligence, Indifference
and laziness of electors qualified to govern right
ly. The thief steals if we leave the safe open be-
fore his eyes. It is his nature, his business to
steal. We charge first the responsibility upon the
man who left the doors open-Thomas Dixon, Jr.

TEACHING DOMESTIC SCIENCE.

The Monroe Journal, commenting on the use
Of Horticulture for Beginners" in our public
schools, says:
This book will be the first step towards laying
the foundations of a practical, serviceable and
useful course of study for the schools. 1t is the
first step for the boys. The first step for the
girls Will be an elementary textbook on cooking,
sewing and housekeeping"
Yes, domestic science is only less important
than agriculture. A speaker before the Illinois
Domestic Science Association recently said:
IF the work of domestic science is put into
the public schools, every girl has some teaching
in this direction. And who will question the use
fitness of work in this line? Which will she use
most in her common life, knowledge of quadratics
or knowledge of yeast? Which will be of most
value to her, knowledge of ancient history or
knowledge of the insect like which is common
about her? VIII she not give thanks in the COM
ing years for knowledge of the fabrics of which
her clothing is to be made or her house decorated,
much more than for the knowledge of German or
ability to translate a few Greek sentences"
The only fault we find in this utterance is the
implication that cultural and practical knowledge
are antgonistic, while there is really no conflict
between them, and both should be given.

THE CONFEDERATE VETERANS.

The long gray line of Confederate veterans at
,ooant encampment in Raleigh was a sight to
=. ono,s blood. 1t is well if one can appreciate
a. daeper significance of such a spectacle. "You
NOT see the mountain near" Emerson truly
Is. and we often wonder if the younger men of
40 Sonth realize the l~argeness of the Civil War
roaIze for how many thousands of years it will
loom large in the worlds history until it finally
takes its place in song and story with the might
lost conflicts of Greece and Rome. But the ap-
nIause of history comes too late; and while they
ore vet with us, we should see to it that the sur
rivors of the titanic struggle between North and
South receive an earnest of the glory they have
earned. Raleigh honored itself in honoring the
veterans.

We make mistakes, as some other people do,
but We hope we shall ever have the manliness to
acknowledge our mistakes when we see them.
Re-reading our rather hastily prepared account
OF the Greensboro Reunion, we are convinced
that one reference to an aged and distinguished
North Carolinian should not have been made
because it was unnecessary and because it was
SO unfortunately worded as to suggest lack of
respect for a man full of years and of honOrs.
No one, we are sure, is further from such a feel
ing than we are; and our only object was to
question the wisdom of trading on the reputa-
lions of aged veterans when the effect of bring
ing them forward is merely to give a pitiful con-
traSt to their old-time strength and eloquence.

The Farm Home versus the Landed Estate.

To perpetuate our unrivaled system of medium
sized farms, as compared with very small farms
inhabited by mere peasants, or with very large
farms owned by the wealthy and worked by hired
servants, our government could we'll afford to con-
tinue making vast expenditures. Heretofore, it's
expenditures for this purpose have been in the
form of free lands under the homestead laws.
Henceforth they must be in the form of special
education for the common farmer. Unforeseen
financial changes might turn capital to purchas-
ing estates" and other economic changes might
tend to greatly increase the percentage of Uncle
Sans acres owned by Landlords" Reducing the
proportion of that class who manage and work"
lands which they own lowers the average stand
ards of country wages and country living. The
principal reason why the common farmers now
hold the land is because, by uniting their capital,
their labor, and their brains with the making OF
a permanent family home, they can pay so much
for the land that the capitalist cannot afford to
own it for leasing, or to run" 1t at arms-Iength
without pauper labor. Remuneration IN the form
of independent homes for families is not secured
by the absent landlord and by only a few OF the
inhabitants on the large estate conducted by the
owner. Whenever other industries lag, capital
seeks investment in landed estates, and once es-
tates with expensive central buildings are devel-
oped. it is, indeed, very difficult to break them up
into smaller holdings. European estates help to
hold as peasants a large class of people who do
not lack in ability, as shown by the rapidity with
which they rise when placed OF free soil IN
America.
Since the farmer and farm h~Ome-maker on the
medium-sized farm must meet sharp competition,
special education for the mass of farmers be-
comes a matter of grave economic and civic as
we'll as of educational Importance broad
State and national problem. Our modest farm
homes stand as our strongest political bulWark'
Homes ON farms worked by the owners are the
best places to breed vigorous people alike Tor
country and city. Our educational scheme IS not
doing all it might to build up our country life
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1903-11-03

and the times are ripe for a natural and some
what radical change. We need to evolve a branch
of our educational system which shall be especial
ly helpful in building up- our farm homes, our
farming and our rural affairs, and country life
generally. The movement is well started, and
some of the leading forces already operating need
only to be correlated to develop a unified scheme.

Schools" by Prof. Willet M. Hays, in the Ameri-
can Monthly Review of Reviews for October.
