COST OF EDUCATION.

Some idea of the expenditure for
education under modern conditions
may be gathered from the fact that
no less than s7O,793,505. was spent
for that purpose in New York State
during the school year ending July
81 last. OF the total mentioned,
s47,077,719.97, or about two-thirds,
was expended for the education of
the children in the common schools,
while SS,549,6l4.03 was used for
secondary schools and SIS, l66,171.
for collegiate education. 1t appears
from the statistics gathered in the
annual report of Commissioner Of Ed
ucation Draper, from which the
above figures are taken, that the av-
erage cost per pupil based on the
registration in elementary schools
was $3.50, an increase Of $1.16 per
pupil as compared with the preced-
ing year. The average cost per pu-
pill based on attendance was $4S.4S,
an increase of $1.06 per pupil,
though this was much smaller in
crement, 1t may be said, than that
for the year before, which amounted
to SASS per pupil. The children in
the State between the ages of five
and eighteen years numbered 1,S41,.
63S. The average daily attendance
at school was 97O,37O, or n per cent
of the enrolment. This represented
an increase of per cent, which Is
credited to increased efficiency in the
enforcement of the compulsory edu-
cation law. The largest item in the
expenditures for common schools
and the one showing the largest
amount of increase was that of $26,,
522,39S.73 for teachers salaries, al
amount representing an increment
of $l,311,444.23 as compared with
the preceding year.

TOUGHEST FOOTBALL
GAME ON RECORD

SCHENECTADY, n. Y, Oct. TO-
A sanguinary record for the football
season was established here today by
the teams Of Union College and Wes-
leyan, seventeen players being rem
dered unconscious during the game
and five OF them being so seriously
hurt that they were removed to the
hospital.
The officials united in saying the
game was the toughest and most
hard fought they had ever witnessed.
In less than ten minutes after play
began both the captains-Potter, o.
Union College, and Hammond, of Yves
leyan-were carried from the field.
Potter with broken collar bone, and
Hammond with slight conclusion of
the brain.
The game had to be stopped. time
and again when the players were in
jured or knocked senseless. After
nearly every scrimmage some one was
found to have bsA hurt so seriously
that he could not arise from the
ground.
The teams were evenly matched
as is shown by the score of 0 to O
Straight football rules were followed
by the teams.

gether with reasonable profit to
American industries. The establish
ment is favored of maximum and
minimum rates to be administered
by the President under limitations
fixed in the law, the maximum to be
available to meet discrimination by
foreign countries against American
goods entering their markets, and
the minimum to represent the normal
measure OF protection at home.
Our local Territorial Republican
platform CELEBRATED the party's firm
belief in n protective tariff as the
basis of the prosperity of the Amer
lean nation, and particularly of the
Territory of Hawaii. The develop
ment of the agricultural interests OF
this Territory required, it said, the
continuance Of tariff protection in
order to shield our products against
ruinous foreign competition.
The danger to Hawaii. 1t would
seem, consists mainly in the express
ed power which 1t is proposed to give
the President to establish the maxi
mum and minimum rates, even un-
der limitations to be fixed in the
law. With President who has al
ready openly declared that one of the
greatest pleasures that he can derive
during his term of Office will consist
in the benefits that he can confer

Timid, Riee-Eatins, intellectual Ben
cali 10 Transformed Into
an Anarchist

CALCUTTA. British India, Sept. 8.
India continues to seethe in n state
of runrest.
Perhaps the most striking evidence
OF the national change which this un.
rest has wrought Is to be found in the
transformation Of the timid, rice-eat-
ing, intellectual Bengal to the anarch'
ical revolutionist.
A few years ago the overfed, much
oiled greasy Bengal babu was an OBJ
ject of contempt to the more warlike
European settlers or TRANSFORMER
tribes. Today the Bengal is willing
to lay down his life for the political
faith that is In him.

ton with an awful affair which oc.

graduated itself on getting one of the
accused to turn informer or "approv.
err" as he is locally called. That in
formers evidence led to wholesale ar
rests. Naturally the Government took
care of so valuable an asset, and
lodged him for security in the hos.
pital attached to the jail at Alipool,
Calcutta. In that Jail lay majority
OF the accused.

TARIFF reform.

The agitation for tariff revision,
which began almost directly follow
ing the Presidential election of 1904,
must be regarded as one of the most
extraordinary episodes in connection
with American politics. After more
than seven-now eleven-years Of
restored prosperity resulting almost
wholly from the operations of tariff
law affording needful and adequate
protection to industry; after more
than seven years of the largest EN-
ployment of labor at the highest wage
rate ever known in the industrial
history. of any country; after seven
years of business and industrial ac-
tivity far surprising anything known
In the worlds history; after seven
years OF steady increase In the ac-
cumulated wealth of all classes of
society-an accumulation In which
the wage-earner had his full share,
as Is shown by an increase of more
than $2,O0O,000,000. in the savings
banks deposits, building and loan in
vestments, and wage-earners' life In
surance-in the face of all these
conditions, which would ordinarily
serve to inspire satisfaction and in
sure stability of fiscal and economic
policy, the movement for tariff revi-
sion was an astonishing development.
1t is the more astonishing in view of
the fact that 1t is shared to a consid-
cradle extent by those who are iden-
titled with the party OF Protection
and Prosperity.
In Its National platform the Re-
publican party declared unequivocal-
ly for revision of the tariff by a
special session of Congress immedi-
ately following the Inauguration of
the next President, and commended
the steps already taken to this end
in the work assigned to the appro-
pirate committees of Congress which
are now investigating the operation
and effect of existing schedules. 1t
was suggested that in all tariff legis.
tion the true principle of protection
would be best maintained by the i'm
position of such duties as will equal
the difference between the cost OF
production at home and abroad, to-
