the instruction they receive is of a character to fit them to engage imme- diately in some gainful occupation with a good chance of advancement. At present many boys and girls of these ages are at work in various kinds of juvenile occupations fin which they learn no trade, are subject to little if any beneficial general education, and often to much harmful education from shifting experience and environment. " That the majority of these children would be in school if the school prom ised preparation for some life pursuit, is the contention of the commission and justifes the establishing of indus trial schools.
 This states the case about as it is, and shows that the commission has been thorough and sensible In its work.

 The great wave of prosperity that is now felt in all the leading manu- featuring and trading countries dupli- cats in Germany most of the features seen in America, says a writer in Moody's Magazine.
 There is the same general advance in commodity prices, with cores bonding reduction in the price of cheap Government and ohtre bonds; the same general advance in the wages of labor, attended by demand for beyond the ability of the country to suppl; the same heavy movement of goods on the railways of the country leading to an extraordinary scarcity of cars the same expansion in the ex- port and import trade; the same ac- tivity in financial operations, the big gest turnover in the business of the banks ever known the largest volume of checks through the clearing houses.

SOME LAW,

MT. Bryan, Conservative, and other Conservatives, have deep and proper respect for law. And well they may have Perhaps enough attention has not been called to the fact that right
 in the midst of the hubbub over rail- road men and railroad matters came tho decision of the Supreme court Of Minnesota in the Great Northern case. The attorney general of the State had onjoned the proposed issue of $G0,O00,O0O of new stock of the railroad proposed to be made for purposes of improve ment and addition. The scope of his injunction was also wide enough to draw before the court q recent order of the State railway and warehouse com mission fixing freight and passenger rates. On appeal both questions were argued, and the State court of last re- sort decided that the proposed issue of stock is lawful and the order by the commission fixing rates and fares is unlawful.
 Nothing wild or confscatory about that. Just plain law plainly stated And law during it's reign has often been seen to be about the best thirg on this troubled earth.

THE PRESIDENTS ATTITUDE.

The President respectfully yet firmly declines to talk about the railroad sit uation, but the news comes from Wash ihgton that to the different men, friend ly and unfriendly, who have visited him or written to him he has answered yer bally or in writing that his words and acts speak for themselves, and needed no explanation whatever, and that he should not, in his future course, deviate ore hands breadth from the course he has pursued in the past and was now pursuing; that even most cursory ex- animation of what he has repeatedly said in speech and in message will show the utter nonsense of supposing the government has the slightest inten- ton to take any action which would in- validate the safety and stability of the railroad securities now issued, the whole legislative programme of the President having been proclaimed again and again as one to insure the future against the mistakes and delinquencles of the past.
 That will be enough for a reasonable being. Reasonable beings have not supposed that the President of the United States was willing to add to their troubles by wickedly and illegal ly attacking their property.

4 NEED OF THE BAY STATE.

The Massachusetts commission on in- dustrial education has made a report in which it declares that industrial schools should supplement the existing school system in order to meet a new educational need This was the origi- nal purpose to be served by the techni- cal high schools, but the commission is convinced that these schools do not meet the requirements because they are institutions for general education, like the academic high schools. They merely prepare their pupils for profess sional training in some college or engi- neering school
 It is the theory of the commission that there are a large number of boys and girls between the ages of IA and It years whose parents would be glad to give them more schooling, provided

MORE LIFE IN CHICAGO.

They have got the death rate pretty well down in Chicago and now they
 are starting in to raise the living rate. It is announced that good food is to be an important factor in the re- form of delinquent husbands, conducted by Municipal Judge Mckenzie Cleland. After several weeks of research, con- ducted upon practical lines, Judge Clel- and has discovered that food served in indifferent style by indifferent wives has more to do with sending husbands to the corner saloon for solace than any other one thing. Experiments have shown that good food will force the de- linquent husband to forget his evil ways and return to the straight and narrow path. The truth of this theory was proved at a review of paroled hus- bands in Judge Cleland's court There were fifty husbands who had been placed upon their honor and good food, The latter had stimulated the former to such an extent that there were few wives who had any complaint to make of their husbands.
 This looks promising. There is cer- tainly more sense in it than there Is in some of the theories of dealing with husbands who are not valuable.

It has been pretty cold down Easto this winter. A Bangor man, says the Kennebec Journal, in his effort to de- scribe the coldest place in the world, spoke of a shed that was "too cold to keep wood in,' and this was the limit until this correspondence came in from Mount Desert concerning the weather down there: A fisherman of Otter creek says a big codfish was so at tracted by the warmth of a gasoline heater in his dory that it jumped into the boat and tried to wrap, itself around the heater. It froze in a half circle. Jed Jerkins, of Trenton, went to the barn to water his stock. He fell and upset the pail. Before he could step out of the water his boots froze to the floor. He had to take his boots off to get away.

There is now pending in the French chamber of deputies bill abolishing courts-martial in time of peace and providing that French soldiers and sailors accused of offenses shall be tried by civil tribunals like other citi- zens. The bill also stipulates that in no case shall a soldier or sailor be pun ished more than five years for breaches of discipline. An officer who maltreats subordinate is to suffer the same punishment as the soldier who offers violence to a superior. There is to be no death penalty in future for treason, desertion or other military crimes. There are to be no soldiers of the sec- ond class and no penal companies.
