GENERAL.


What the United States will be twenty
years hence depends on the training of
the children of to-day. The average
period of school attendance Is less than
ten years. Last month more than
2O0O,OOO children and youth closed their
school days. Every year the army upon
whom the doorsof school education close
forever is as great AS the mu,jmum to'al
of both armies ut any time i'll the civil
war.
While the children are taught by the
teachers in tens of thousands Of schools
the teachers themselves must first be
taught, and this duty of preparing the
teachers is the task Of most Importance
to our colleges and universities. New

One Glass OfkickcrS.

Big fusses i'll Cumberland and Iona
coming over raises of assessment.
In the main same old cause-each man
thinks his own too high.
One of the fairest assessments ever
made in Frostburg was broken down by
one man who looked at his own property
but, in his own language, didn't care Il
damn about his neighbours.
The essential object to be sought in all
assessments therefore, is cqudiiy-aS
nearly as that object can possibly be
attained.
Then stick to it.
In general terms, the man who kicks
against assessments wouldn't have made
a good soldier i'll the American revolu-
ion-unless he had enlisted on the Brit
ish side.

But the name of those who will not
have "a free press" that runs counter to
their own individual notions and inter

Indeed apparently thegreatest treason
of the day is that felt by tn" individual
whose interest has been ignored

the commonwealth.
Hence, no free press for the CRATER;
indeed, no free press for whomsOevcr

edge no rights of prop'g1uiu outside his

Right Now is the Time.

The New York lJorid reads this less IN
to whom 1t may concern:
The uprising in New Hampshire ITO put
the government back into the hands of the
people ought to be a lesson to the corpora
tons of that State and other States as we'll
The people are tired of having their politics
and their government manipulated by cor
poratlon agents. They are willing to pro
tect the rights of corporations but they want
the business transacted in the open. The
sooner the men who manage these corpora
tons come to realize the state of popular
sentiment, the better it will be for them
selves, their stockholders, and the country.
Right here and now the exactly right
thing for the Cumberland and Pennsyl-
wanna railroad company to do is-obcg
tie iu,r!
Throw down the bars that limit the
development and industry of this region
and give the people of all classes of
business "a square deal

nation than dollars can measure in con-
tinuing loss of popular respect

Who railroad katc Bill.

The railroad rebate and anti-discrimi-
national bill has become a law. While not
familiar with its text, still it Is hoped that it
will remedy one of the most curious situa-
tions III the coal industry, and which actual
ly prevented the government from getting
the kinds Of coal it wanted
The government wanted the Georges Creek
(Marylandl coal for its battIcships and
cruisers, and the BIossburg. PaD coal for
smIthing purposes, yet through rate dis
elimination 1t was unable to get either.
This phase of the freight discrimination
was not brought out in the hearings, but
doubtless will be later on, as the government
itself was the actual sufferer L nited Mine
Workers Jourud
But when Maryland Act more di-
rectly aimed at "one of the most curiols
situations in the coal iudustry' is Of
ticlally pronounced US contraveuing the
Federal Constitution, how is the govern
ment to get even with itself?
That is, if State cannot help the
government out of dilemma in mat
ter wholly within the States own limits,
how can the government help itself even
though the difficulty be within its own
though wider limits?
If state cannot impair the obliga-
tions of contracts,' or "deprive various
interests Of their property without due
process of law" because these violate
the Federal Constitution, how can the
Federal government do these things, no
matter how, without the same result?

to their own and the general satisfaction

there is not strictly a party newspaper
