VAR0ANANlaM !N ACTION.

Governor Vardaman, the anti-negro executive of Mississippi, is beginning to practice what he breaches.
 A few weeks ago he induiged in q tirade against the educat.cn os the colored race. His arguments were as ancient ard as ishy in ndor as Aneri- can slavery. He represented the ue- groes as an inferior race He said that they never could be otherwise, anG that it was both usele@s and mis- chievous to undertake their education. It would be better for them. as well as for the whites, if tley were kept in ignorance.
 Now, it seems, Var6amau is officially engaged in carrying out these beaUti- ful theories. A bill recently passed the Mississippi legislature appropriat- ing $2,200 for the support of the Holly Springs Normal school, an institution devoted to the education Of young colored people.
 Vardaman vetoed 1t. Tn his message he airs his personal objections to ne gro education, urging his we'll known views on that subject
 So the colored race of the south will know what 10 expect if the Vardamans of that section have their way. They are to be doomed to ignorance ard, therefore, to degradation. They arc to be kept in oondltio4 to remain 2 servflc and a subject class Of the pop ulation. All the pleasure and ipspira- tion of Knowledge are to be shut atvay from them. Having eyes. they are not to be permitted tC see; having ears, they are not to be permitted to hear; having intelligence, they snail not be permitted to learn and develop and expand.
 In the north we have compulsory education laws which make schooling imperative. In the south, under the Nardaman regime, Cne-halr Of the population is to be deprived of the

SOCIAL EQUALITY ON THE GAL
 LOWS.

When Governor Pennypacl1er, of Pennsylvania, signed the bill making 1t crime for newspaper to hurt a thiefs feelings, it. could never have been thought that the time would come when a criminal would appeal to him n vain for sympathy.
 Yet Judge Pennypacker has jus, done a heartless thing. He has oroe,e1 two nurderers, one a negro and the other a white man, to be hang5d on the same day. The feelings of the c IT. casidn homicide are so deeply outraged by this attempt to enforce social equal ity on the scatfold that it would not be surprising if he should refuse to b. hanged at ell. He certainly, will neve. consent to an execution under such conditions again.
 The sheriff regards the governors or der IS entirely improper" "Of all places in the world he justly re- marks, fine scaho!d is one where noth- Ing that could offend the condemned man ehculd be done" An idea occurs to US, however.

LIVES RlSHED FROM HABIT.

The man WIS walking a q moderate gait, apparently in no great hurry when he reached the corner. He had liesure to pause there to look after pretty woman. Then he started across the street. Two wagons, a cable car and a fire engine were coming and the man quickened his pace. He could have stopped to let them pass, but he had no time to spare now; He lodged in front of the two wagons and found room to wait fer the cable car 70 pass. But he couldn't wait; he had suddenly been derived of all leisure. He esti- mated speed and distance at a glance, bolted in front of the car, continued wildly across in front of the engine and reached the opposite curb on the run. He was in desperate haste or he never would have taken those chances Anyone could see that. But, once safely across. he stopped, turned, stuck his hands in his pockets and stood watching the fire engine until it was out Of sight. Then he went leisureIy about his business, again having ample time for ell that he wanted to dO.-BroOklyn Eagle.

LAND LAWS IN THE SENATE.

The new bill making cert9ir changes in the land laws, which has passed the senate is nothing Ike SO radical a measure as that which some persons advocated.
 There is in fact, little. if anything objectionable in it. Reforms Of some kind were needed in the land laws to prevent the acquisition Of public land by persons not properly entitled to it. but it would have been unwise to do away with the homestead law or the mutation clause in that act
 The policy of the government should be to encourage and facilitate the set tIement of homemabers on the public domain by providing easy means by which settlers could acqUue homes on public lands
 Senator HansbrCugh was right in saying that passage of the radical 77easure at one time contemplated would upset the land laws of the en- tire country and turn the stream If westward migration away from the ar western states and 70 the unoccu- pied lands Of Canada. The govern mcnt could rot afford to do anything os hot kind, rore especially since the results would enure almost exclusivsiy to the lanG-Erant railroads. It would be in the interest of those roads to make the acquisition oi homes on pub lie lands difficult, for il woul1 enlarge the market for and increase the sale of railroad lands. Fortunately the senate took Senator HansbrouGh's view and rejected tho radical proo0- sition.-DenVer RepublicaG.

APPLES, MORALITY AND STATES
 MANSEIP.

Professor John T. Stenson, director of pomology of the Louisiana Purchase exposition, has prepared a pamphlet in which he sets forth the efficacy of ao- pies as a cure for evil habits. 4 mill ion copies of this work will be Gistrib- Uted free at the worlds fair on AppI= day.
 Professor Stenson holds that in order to work a cure by means of the apple diet. the patient must carry app e around with him constantly, CT ba s0 situated that an orchard or an apple stand or an apple barrel win always be within his reach. When he feels de- sine to drink, smoke or swear, he mus immediately take a bite Of apple, mas 1 t.cate it thoroughly, and trus, the res. to nature.
 Professor Stenson points to Seao or { Francis Cockrell. of Missouri. whos5 high moral character and exalted statesnanship are proverbial, as a bright and shining example of the cor rectness Of the apple theory. 'It is 9 well known fact" he says. that Senator Cocbreu makes his lunch of apples every day to the ex- : clus.on Of all other food, and has kep.
 up this diet for thirty years"
 The public will attach a great dea or weight to pr.

and his exalted statesmanehip to the fact that he has eaten apple luncheons habltually for the last thirty ye2rs. it must be borne .n mind that his as- sociates in congress have not followed his example. Some of the noblest char acters that have graced our national halls of legislation in the last three de- cades have lunched on cheese, ham, sardine and egg sandwiches.
 Men whose lives have beaut.fed the pages of our history have partaken freely of corned beef hash, cold chick en, turkey legs, spare ribs and broi e l lobster in the restaurants of the senate and house Curing the luncheon hour.
 Others upon whose records there is no stain, and in who-e lives the ycu h of the country find inspiration, Eave left the heated atmosphere of deb -te with the echo of their own eloduence still ringing in their ears, to eat bacon and cabbage, or perhaps fried tripe and carrots.
 It is not necescc~y to become per- sonal in discussing this matter, even though Professor Stenson. in naming the senior senator from Missouri, has invited comparisons, but those who are familiar with public life in Washing ton, we are satisfied, will not attempt to contradict the statement that som } of the most eminent of our statesmen rot only refrain from the apple diet while preparing the;0selves for. a su- preme effort, but for weeks and months before they make speeches intended to electrify the country, conhre thsm- seives almost altogether to prun-s.- Chicago Inter Ocean.
