ARD-TECHNoLoGY ALLIANCE.

The plan for the alliance Of Harvard Uni
versity and the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology in the teaching Of scientific and
technical subjects provides for one of the most
important educational movements i'll many
years. BY it one of Americas greatest univer-
sites and Americas most famous, and perhaps
best, technical school may join forces, so that
by the unified employment Of the endowments
of each the greatest technical school in the
world may be created The idea has been IN
der discussion for many months, and perhaps
the publication OF the plans may be accepted
as an indication of the confidence of the com
mittee which prepared them ihat they will be
accepted by the authorities Of both institutions.
Essentially it is an alliance rather than a
merger In fact, closer union was impossible
on account of the sentiment of the alumni of
the institute who are jealous of the prestige of
their alma mater and unwilling that its indi-
yiduality should be lost in the university.
The terms on which the institute is admit
ted to the enjoyment of the larger funds Har-
ward has to devote to scientific purposes are eX-
ceedingly generous. The organization of the in
stitute remains distinct its title is unchanged.
The mana cement of the combined funds shall
be under the control Of an executive commit
tee designated by the institute. The institute
is to move to a site near that of Harvard. The
legal title TO the funds of each institution re-
mains distinct; the income only is merged, Har-
ward handing over to the executive committee
the income of all the funds of the Lawrence
Scientific School, the income of all property
Harvard shall hereafter acquire for the pro-
motion of instruction in industrial science and
also threeffths. but no more. of the net in
come which may accrue from the beQuest and
devise Of the late Gordon Mckay" sums vast
ly larger than the present total endowment of
the institute. All of this is subject to the ap-
proYal of the Massachusetts courts. which may
prevent turning the income of the Me
Kay funds TO a committee which Harvard will
not necessarily control or, again. may prevent
the advantageous sale of the present Technol-
ogy site.
The agitation for union Of the two institu-
tons grew out Of the bequest TO Harvard Of the
Gordon Mckay millions. BY tie terms of the
inventors win they were 10 be devoted to tech
nical education. Harvard had already, in the
Lawrence Scientific School, a chronological
plant but the work of the school was hardly
satisfactory. 1t was one of the minor tech
meal schools of the country. The Massachu-
/ setts Institute of Technology, the other hand
existed in Boston, but a few miles away, the
I greatest school Of its kind in this country. The
! question was, then. should Harvard spend the

ASSUMPTION of m enormous burden by the TAX
payers The projectors of the scheme perhaps
honestly, proclaim that / per cent of the excise

it started and that ultimately it will be SELF
sustaining. But this is utterly impossible me
defenders figure it out on the theory that few
will retire when allowed, but will prefer full
salary for many years while continuing to con
tribute TO the fund. But the bill puts 4 premium
on quick retirements by giving annuites to com
paratively young men for triding payments and
most of them. without half eXerting themselves
could earn all they would give uD by retirement.
The police fund is much mere carefully guarded
and the men must contribute for longer terms,
but fve-sevenths Of the cost of police pensions
falls upon the taxpayers.
If we are ever TO have civil pensions, care
should be taken to establish them on sound
actuarial principles with proper safeguards
against diversion of the fund to comparatively
young and able-bodied men. The Yale bill con-
forms to neither requirement.. 1t has nearly all
the bad features of the Remsen bill of last year,
which Mayor Mcclellan vetoed. The legislature
cannot afford to take the chances that he will
save the taxpayers from this imposition once

THE STATE OF RUSSIA.

The comment was made in these columns two
months ago. upon the rebellion of last January
in St Petersburg, that repression would not be
the end of it. but that new era had been begun
In Russian history and that things could never
be lust as they had been before. The two
months which have elapsed since then have not
disproved our words. They have on the con-
trary, given them ominous and tragic contirma-
ton. The outbreak of January % in the streets
of ST Petersburg was suppressed in blood. 1t
has not been maintained there or renewed III
precisely the same form and place; but day by
day since then we have received ttdings OF the
extension Of the spirit Of revolt throughout the
empire. Scarcely a province is now free from
it. Not only Poland, Finland Armenia and the
Caucasus are seething with rebellion, but the very
heart of Holy Russia itself is in the same con-
ditlon. There is no part Of the empire to which
the troubled sovereign can turn with confidence
and say, Here, at least, is unimpaired loyalty"
The movement is not only geographical, more
over but also social. 1t would be bad enough
if any one class of subjects throughout the en-
pire were in revolt. 1t Is far worse to have the
revolt spreading, as it is doing, from class to
class Those were city workingmen factory
hands and artisans who made appeal to the Lit
tie Father" in the streets Of the capital and got
rifle bullets for answer. Their fellow workmen
throughout the empire are rising in sympathy
antry, the moujills, of the agricultural regions
are joining them, heart and hand. The students
OF the universities have cast in their lots with
them. Business men, merchants, bankers and
others are openly expressing sympathy with
them. Even members of the nobility are align
ing themselves upon the side oil progress, which,
unhappily, is coming more and more to mean
the side of revolution. The insurgent recruits
are coming from all classes. A few more DAYS
| may reveal a new Philippe Egalit6 within the
grand ducal circle
That plainly and truly speaking is the state
of Russia to-day. In view OF 1t hesitancy in
peacemaking and the making of real reforms
seems inexplicable. 1t was easy TO maintain
"order in Warsaw" But how if every city in
the empire becomes a Warsaw? Poland has
been kept in subsection at cost of considerable
effort. What effort will be needed to subdue
and keep subdued a hundred Polands? IL will
need a far larger army than any that has been
| marshalled under the beaten banners of Kuro-
patkin and Linevitch. Then who can be spared
! for the desperate task of trying to conouer
JapanE These are the considerations which
come irreslstibly foremost to-day, and all the
! display of ingots and bags Of bullion will not
