A supERFLOUs STUDY.

If there is one study more than
another among the branches of
education that are taught in the high
schools at the resent time that seems
of less use than others in the prac-
tical affairs of life, it Is that of
algebra. This study is something like
the old style conveyances that were
used in Utah during the earlier days
of territorial vassalage, when the main
part of the documents used for the
transfer of title to lands consisted of
formalities which the wise action of
Legislatures at later period decided
to be, as the legal fraternity would
put it, incompetent, irrelevant and
immaterial. -
If the educators of the state would
at some of their conventions when
discussing the course of study to be
followed in the higher schools of the
state, advise the elimination of this
cumbersome and. for ordinary pur-
poses, useless brach of study, they
would confer benefit on the prac-
tical utility of the schools that would
be of great benefit to the average
young man and woman whose time is
too valuable TO waste on study
which, after having been learned Mt
the expense of nearly one-third of
the time they have for higher school
purposes, is seldom, II ever, used in
the business of life.
circumstances in which we have
been placed has led us to make some
investigation into the utility of this
study and out of a number of persons
that we have asked in relation TO the
value of algebra to them, we have not
found one who has found it to be OF
any practical Importance in the trans
action of the business in which they
we're engaged, with the exception OF
school teachers, and it was of benefit
to them only because they were re.
quired to teach it,
1t used to be that knowledge of
Greek and Latan was Indispensable
TO high school education, and in

BACK TO FIRST PRAcIpLRs.

Genesis informs us that Abraham
aud his wife Sarah became the parents
at very advanced age. of their son
Isaac, the mother being ninety aud
the father hundred years old. In
relation to these scriptoral matters
there is always a degree of remoteness
that gives them privileged right of
credence, or at least deprives them
to some degree of being subjected to
the same degree of doubt that some
thing that is said to have happened
IN our own times undergoes, as in
relation to the remote ages Of antiqui
ty we are in the habit of making
many concessions that we would not
be willing TO make in relation TO our
own times, so that this remarkable
birth does not strike us as being so
strange as it otherwise would. But
when we hear of a case such as the
following, taken from the columns
of one of our exchanges, occurring in
our own times, it not only strikes
us as very remarkable, but it justiHes
us in feeling that there is probabili-
ty of getting back to first principles,
and that among the many other pro-
gressive events of modern times that
of frightening out the term of life and
the retention of physical force to an
advanced age is not being over.
looked:
Yesterday, at Charlton, iowa, the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. James Bradley
was gladdened by the appearance OF
the eighth pair of twins. One is a
boy of eight pounds and the other a
girl of seven. The father, who
served all through the civil war, is
rs years of age, but is hale and vigor-
GUS. The mother is 65. Besides
the eight pairs of twins one other
child was born to the family, making
total of seventeen children.

some of the less progressive, and old
fashioned institutions of learning,
this is probably the case but general
Iy it is considered much better to
learn the language of people who are
alive and likely to be met than tnat
of the dead.
The ordinary srithmetical rules
are sufficiently broad and efficient to
serve all ordinay purposes OF life,
and those who expect to follow advo'
cations which requie the application
of more advanced or abtruse methods
of calculation should take special
training for the purpose.
1t would be just as reasonable to
requie every student to learn survey
ing, electrical engineering or any
other of the many specialties that
people follow for a living as to re-
quiie all to learn this suerpfiuous
branch of learning which Newton
calls universal arithmetic, and which
is so little required in the ordinary
business of life.
If the time spent on this study was
employed by the student in acquir-
ing knowledge aud training on more
practical lines, the benefits to the
state and nation would be very much
greater from the high school work
than they are.

Truth, the plucky little Salt Lake
weekly, has a scorching article in it's
issue of the 18th inst. in relation to
the spiteful little gentleman who is
writing the editorials for the Salt
Lake Tribune.
In view of the way In which the
Tribune offers to put up money on
the falsity of the statemnts of the
Deseret News in relation to its circu-
lation, it would seem that its editor
might have money enough to spare a
few dollars for the purpose of purging
himeslf from the insinuations and
charges that the impudent writer of
the Salt Lake weekly so boldly pub
fishes. There was time in the
career of "Frankie j." when it
would have been unhealthy for man
to have assaulted him in such manner.
We have not forgotten the fact of his
pushing the countenance of Attorney
Dickson years ago for his treatment
of Mr.. Cannon's mother when she
was on the witness stand, and we
have always rather admired him for
his courage thus displayed. But, as
Shakespeare says, conscience doth
make towards of us all, I" and possib-
ly the valorous young man feels in
this instance that discretion is the
better part of valor. At least the
silence of the great anti Mormon
organ in relation to the matter would
lead us to believe that no notice of
the charge is to be taken. We should
like very much to at least see the
Senator's reply. Fetch him outl
