Edwin Damon, of Lancaster, informs us
that more ground rent was taken three

The School Question

There should be no dissent from the
intelligent and well read people of our
day to a suggestion that the sons of
even the poorest citizen, irrespective of
race, should have such sufficient educa-
ton as would enable them when engaged
in the struggle for existence on their
own account, to readily understand the
designs of those who will approach them
with this or that proposition. The
advancement of this great country as a
moral force, and perhaps even the sta
bility of the Union, depends upon the
provision made for the proper education
OF the rising observation-disclosures
No amount of lawmaking in the future
could he so eticacous in the prevention
of political and social corruption, which
surely leads to disintegration, as the
proper training of the young idea. In
an ideal democracy, which is possible of
attainment in this wealthy Republic,
facilities for the development of natural
talent will be afforded for each and all !:
and glorious will be the results. Such
results could only be effected through
the perfection and extension of the fa-
cilities now partially afforded by the
free, public school system of education.
Any attack made upon this, which is
still in the experimental stage, with a
view to its Adjustment or to a curtail-
ment OF means to perfect the plan, seems
tantamount to an attack upon the fac.
But inquiry into this important question
shows that the more prominent agitators
who are urging the further establishment
OF parochial schools do not propose any
thing OF the kind, even while viewing
with alarm our "turbulent freedom I"
which they attribute to the inadeouacv
OF our preparatory school training.
From their point of view the State
seems dangerously negligent of the
moral training Of their charges. And
they have further opportunities for com,
plant IN the fact that the crowding of

Essex County have another serious
criminal trial on the docket. Crime Is
getting to be altogether too prevalent IN
all the communities of this great civil

not in Denmark. 1t is in the heart OF
the thought of the people; the lowering
of the standard in both private and
public life; the lessening OF the inilu,
ence of the church in the daily affairs OF

any cost to meet the demands of the

the forgetting OF the Golden Rule and
