GENERAL COMMENT.
The Small College.

A recent editorial in The Richmond
Virginian on this subject Challenged
our interest. Out of TAG college-train-
ed highschool teachers in Virginia,
1877 were trained in private> ard de-
nominational colleges OF that State.
This Is about So per cent Of the total.
We doubt not that an analysis of the
reaching force of this State would
Snow an equal, if not larger. per cent
trained In our UNCONVENTIONAL colleges.
That editorial continues: Not over
9 per cent of college graduate teach
ers are from the State institutions,
and Fl per cent are from out of the
State institutions" This Is from the
state In which Is located the father
Of state Institutions: and without stop
ping to moralize about the small per
cent of the teachers in the public
school work of the State. 1t II a SPLEEN
did testimony to the value OF the de-
nominationai college of the State. The
editor OF The Richmond Virginian thus
concludes: That the small .ollege
and the UNCONVENTIONAL will remain
and s1ould receive a very much larger
recognition. support and backing in
the shape OF substantial endowments

STATE COMMIT.
Cannon and Peters.

The Richmond Evening Journal In
an editorial of some length. discusses
DR.. James Cannon, TIE Rev Sydney
Peters. and the enactment of prohi-
bition by the next Legislature. Be-
ginning with caption of "Hurrah for
Peters, the Journal sails into Its
subject with its usual vigor, sarcasm
and sharp criticism. Among other
things it says:
The ideal condition will be for the
Ant!-Saloon League, which IS the Rev
bF. James Cannon, to present hts pro-
gram AID for the general assembly to
pat ii through intact. without debate
or question.
I'VE would like to see the Rev. J
Sidney Peters, who Ia named already
as the prohibition commissioner, gel
a good job.
Sufferance Is the badge of all our
tribe. Bending the pregnant hinges
of tde knee and whispering lowly In
he bondman's key have become fash
ionable. But as for the prohibition
law, we should get that out of the
way as quickly as possible. give the
league all tne power and responsibility
/ it may demand, put the State Govern.
ment at Its service. adopt resolutions
gress to vote for national prohibition
and be done with that part OF it,"
These paragraphs are fairly good
specimens of the thoughts and ideas
which the Journal sets forth. They
at any rate give the spirit even II
they do not give the entire letter.
Ever since Virginia voted for State
wide prohibition, the Journal has beat
! the bushes, pulled Its hair. and ex
horted fearfully In its efforts to advise
the Legislature as to what sort of pro.
hihtion law should be adopted. Agar
and again 1t has dwelt upon DIR. Can
