ROOSEVELT AS HISTORIAN.
After Blaine retired from Arthur $
cabinet in 1881 he devoted two or
three wears to- writing his admirable
historical review, Twenty Years In
Congress- Then, after his defeat for
the presidency by Cleveland in 1855
some of Cleveland's friends MADE the
remark: Blaine may keep on writing
history: Cleveland will now make his
tory"
Roosevelt has both written history
and made history. That is distinc-
ton he shares, among otners' VIII
Caesar. Roosevelt's historical writ
ings have, however, been almost en-
tirely of other persons and times than
his own. He has yet to Write an ac-
count of his own most important con-
tributions to history. Perhaps ne VIII

sensation as the administration mas,
which is saying a good deal. Great

porting-Wall Street Journal.

interesting fact is that the country as

have told US that the public is In
clined to keep out of the market alto
gether and does not care to put its
money in stocks" Therein the pub
lie is wise. There is another reason
why the antics of the operators do
not greatly influence the situation.
And that is that the movement of

55s Aid for Rural Schools. N
The first bill taken up was house

mentary education, or the payment
from the common school funds, state
aid for rural schools. 1t was taken up
section by section. 4. 81 ; 81 !, VI ..
In q few crisp remarks the dapper
Mr.. Casey from Walsh, enthusiastical-
" supported the measure and declared
that the public money could not be
expended for a better purpose.
Mr. Stevens deemed the general
principle Of the bill to be proper, but
he feared that it vested too much
power in the state superintendent. He
was not willing to support 1t until
lit had been Investigated by the com
5mittee on appropriations. He moved
that after consideration it be so re-
3ferred. u ss5 N III
The reference of power and qualifi-
cation of county superintendent Of
schools brought Mr.. Streeter to his
feet and he cited an instance Of a
superintendent Of schools who had
succeeded one who had been in Office
too long. The successor soon found
school districts In which were hired
teachers who could not speak a word
of the English language he thought
the measure good one and practical.
sSs Mr. Shirley liked the bill for its aim
and purpose was to raise the standard
of the rural schools. Just what many
people have been working for for a
decade or more. The object is worthy
and meritorious and the state cannot
spend any part Of the growing SIC, 00O,-
900 fund to any better advantage The
grade depends upon the grade OF the
teacher employed. There Is q stimulus
for the people to improve their
schools and the better the schools the
greater the aid, It is up to the people
and enterprise In one district Will
awaken another district to be up and
doing.

Of pronounced merit and most assured
ly meant the upbuilding Of the country
