New York's Best Assets.

The New York public school system
began with the organization OF Il free
school for colored children in 1887. 1t was
1901 before white children were similarly
provided for, Upon that small Begin
ming, the public school system OF New
York has grown into 50l schools, employ
ing 1871 teachers with registration o.
6222,2ol pupils. Last year the teachers re-
ceived in salaries sl5,5O9,787, and the total
school expenses reached $27,SiSS53.
In commenting on this exhibit Pro-
fessor Abram S. 1sancs, of the New York
University, says: 1.-THE schools arc New
York's best assets" No doubt OF it.

Reconstruction"

Judge Robert II, Terrell, Of Washing-
ton. D. G., graduate of Harvard, and
an appointee of President Roosevelt, re-
Gently addressed several hundred negro
residents of Boston on the rights of their
people. Speaking on reconstruction"
he said;
1T is popular to-day TO declare that re-
construction was n curse rather than a
blessing TO the negro, and that II was the
chief cause of the hostile attitude OF the
Southern white man toward him. This Is
not in conspnance with history. Then,
again. there are men who say that the
ballot was given 10 the negro too soon,
or hes would be better off If It had not
been given to him at all From what
premises have such conclusions been de-
duccdG Our form OF government rests
on the ballot. Freedom IL the school IN
which free men are taught, and the ball
lot box Is the educator. The most igno-
rant Immigrant is taught first of all that
a man must have his political rights ~
order to protect his natural rights"
Yet Judge Terrell knows that IN Mas
sachusetts there Is q qualified suffrage
and ignorant Immigrants and ignoran
natives are not allowed to vote, Why
then, does ne think that tho ballot SHOULD
have been put into the hands of tho igno
rant negroes of the South, when they Ia.
had no instruction whatsoever In tn
art of government. He knows very wei

Pedagogy at the University.

THE statement that Mr.. John D. Rocke-
fc1,cr has given 100000 to the Univcr-
sity of Virginia Is all the more Interest,"
ing when coupled with the further state
ment that the endowment is to be USED
to establish the chair of pedagogy IN
thnt institutions This Is 81 pet subject
with President Alderman, and pedagogy
will doubtless become one of the leading
"tickctc" Of tho University Of Virginia.
THAT, more than anything that has peen
done Of late, looks like making the Uni
syorslty. In fact, part Of tho public.
school system Of Virginia. Education tl1l
is not a matter CT "crammlng,' but q
matter Of mental development and train.
ing. The word pcdagogue comesyfrom q
Greek word which signified slave VINO
,ccompanied tile child Of his master to the
.palaestra, coached him in his games and
gave him instruction in personal conduct.
Pedagogy in It's modern significance com
prises that body Of doctrine, small, but
steadily increasing, which has for its OBJ
ioct that correct bringing up and instruc-
ton OF the young from the time when
they are old enough to havo developed any
of the mental faculties I'D to the time
| when they have finished their conven-
i tional. education and begin the battle OF
4 life for themselves" II
i 1t needs no longer to DO argued that
4 teaching is a profession In itself II IS
! not enough that the teacher DO an edu-
1 Gated person in the ordinary meaning OF
| the word. The teacher must be stu
don't oil. human nature, and must not only
i have the art Of imparting instruction,
but must have the art of educating
! ing out-the mind Of the pupil. It Is,
therefore OF prime Importance that those
who expect to mako teaching a profession
have a thorough course In pedagogy.
! But this valuable course Of instruction
should not by any means be confined to
| professional teachers. The process is
educational within itself md 1t Is most
| important that men educated at the Uni
j ycrsity who 60 out into the activities OF
life to be leaders Of public thought and II
a sense public instructors should have har
thorough training in pedagogy, the science

The Danger Of Lynch Law.

$ Tho reply of Mr.. Rockcfeller's lawyer
to the attack recently made upon M.
Rockefeller by DR.. Washington Gladden
shows how dangerous it is to- try and
convict u man ont Of court. Or. Cad
den claimed to have shown by the record
that Mr.. Rockefeller had denied on oath
that he was associated with the! South
Improvement Company, although a stock
holder in that corporation. Mr.. Rookie
Teller replies that there were two cor
aporations the South Improvement Com
par,y and tie Southern improvement Com-
pany, and adds that any one turning to
the report of the Senate COMMITTEES which
investigated trusts tpages 419-420) Will find
that Mr.. Rockefcller's testimony tc the
effect that he was not In such q com
rany" did not refer to the South i M.
provement Company, but to the Southern
Improvement Company, an entirely DIFF
ferent corporation. lie declares that the
Southern Improvement Company was in
corporated in Pennsylvania on April {16,
1870, and that Mr.. Rockefeller, was not con-
nectcd With it; that the South Improve
nent Company was incorporated over q
year later, and Mr.. Rockefeller was con-
nected with it and never denied such
nection.
If Mr.. Rockefeller had been on trial
in a court Of Justice with competent coun-
sci to represent him all these facts, il
they are facts, would have been brought
out in the evidence and the jury would
f have had clear understanding Of the
case before rendering verdict But DIR.
GLADDEN. made ADMINISTRATION on his own
account Gid not hear Mr.. Rockefeller's
dict, 50 to speak, upon ex parte tcsti-
mony, and MS now appears, upon a mis-
understanding Of the facts. We do not
for moment believe that DR.. GLADDEN.
Intentionally misreprcsented Mr. Rookie
Teller; we Go not condemn him on that
score, and it is not the purpose Of this
article to defend Mr.. Rockefeller. We
desire simply to emphasize the danger
Of lynch law. Our Virginia Bill, Of Rights
provides ''Thatrin oil criminal prosecutions
and nature Of his accusation, to be con-
fronted with tia iccuselss and witnesses,
to call for Evidence In his, favor, and to
{. speedy trial by an impartial Jury OF hts
vlclnage, without whose unanimous con-
sent he cannot be found guilty" That
is the only fair, orderly and civilized
way to try any man, But that is not
the rule of the court of Judge Lynch
In that court only one side of the evil
dence is heard. II any evidence whatsoever
IS heard and usually the victim is sum,
mnrily executed. 1t matters not that III
confesscs, there may be extcnuating cir
cunstances, and ut least he has the RICH
to an orderly trial. the right to intro
duce testimony In his own behalf and t,
have competent counsel to defend him.
Luckily for Mr.. Rockefeller, he was onl:
convicted, and not summary executed
by Judge GLADDEN.. lie may now com
into court and Introduce testimony max
