date. The people of Iowa will take
care of Senator Allison. Iowa will
not voluntarily vacate her present po-
sitioa at the head of the senate" We
have already stated that such was a
safe presumption. Major Lacey is
with the great majority of the people
of Iowa in his admiration for the vet
eran senator who has placed, as the
Oskaloosa paper says, Iowa in leader
ship in the senate. There win be no
opposition to such man on the part

MORAL EDUCATION.
One of the Greatest Factors in Secur-
 ing self-ControI.

The moral responsibility resting up- on the educated man is always held to be greater, by the mass of human kind, than upon the uneducated, His training is. supposed to fit him pecu- liarly to assume civic burden, because of well-balanced judgment, and a per- feet understanding of the. results con- sequent upon his inability to carry out public service with signal devotion. To such casualists there is no distinction between education of the mind and ed uoation of character; the two ideas seem synonymous. Yet, in the last an alysis, was there ever. could there pos sibly be a grosser fallacy? Education in self lf-control or education in charac- ter-for character is essentially the re- suit of self-control-is by no means de- pendent upon a primary integral efTi- clency of either the receptive or req soning processes. It is concerned who'll ly and entirely with will, and will may be associated with the last degree of ignorance of or stupidity A mans ed ucation or lack of education is not al- ways responsible for his acts. Strong CT than any uplift derived from a leading out of the mind are natural in- dividual proclivitive and the degree to which they are indulged Curiously enough, the duty of self-control is one of the last things learned by the col lege student; and by many who grad uate in good standing 1t is never learn ed at all.
 The primary impulse to self-control comes most often from early childhood environment, especially when this en- vlronment Is that of wholesome re- ligious influence as eXerted by parents The kind of sanctity that is merely a hallow sphere of goodness, and the percussion note of which peals out in- difference or falsity at its center, can seldom or never be productive of good on the growing mind of the child, whose psychological insight into the deeper significance of the lives of his

situation is further accentuated by the understanding, positively stated here, that this German success was due di- rectly and solely to the fact that the German government has granted to the concern in question an export bounty which practically equals the freight to Brazilian ports. The exact nature of the bounty is not stated, nor can any details of the matter be had here.
 "Of the small locomotives American manufacturers have been furnishing their full proportion, in spite of the fact that some of the largest estates are owned or controlled by foreign capital and naturally disposed to buy locomotives from the manufacturers of the country it represents, Of the cog or h'll-climbing locomotives, the Ameri- can manufacturers are furnishing less than they did. American cog locomo- tives were tried and preference was given to those manufactured by sin- gle firm in Germany which makes q speciality of that class of locomotives. It Is doubtful if American locomotives of this class had fair trial, although, of course, in such matters there is room for considerable difference of opinion as to the showing made by them. It sufflces to say, perhaps, that in a test made by foreigners in competition with foreign locomotives they did not win. In the iirst-named class there has been the open competition which has given American manufacturers their busl- nnss z

An Interesting Sight In eroton.

An interesting sight in Groton at the present. time is the work of restoring the old Fort Griswold. The masonry of the foundation is, with almost no ex- ception, just as good as the day the fort was built There is much to be done in order to place the fort in the same condition it was during the Rev olutionary war, and the work requires great care in order that it shall be in keeping with the original type. The work of restoration will be carried out this year as far as the appropriation will permit. During the progress of the work several interesting relics of the great struggle which took place, on Groton Heights have been unearthed and will be carefully preserved. Con tractor OBrien found an eighteen pound shot near the surface of the natural rock just outside the sally port, and a twelve-pound shot and one of the smaller shot forming part of a charge of grape were dug out of the face of the north wall not far from the entrance.
