The present year promises to he nota ble for two things, the number of terrible which it has witnessed, and number of new political parties to which it has given birth. Hardly a week passes that we do nothear of the orgioa- tion of some new political movement, which, in the language of its originators; is “bound to sweep the country” at some date in the near future, The country will indeed be thoroughly swept if all these predictions are fulfilled. The la- bor agitation hasgiven rise to no less than three or four distinct parties, each having for its declared object the crush. ing ont of “capitalistic monopolies.” In New York there are now four seperate tickets iu the field for the coming State election: the Republican, Prohibitionist, Henry George, and Progressive Labor Other parties sre yet to Le heard from That must be a man difficult to please’ who cannot now find a party to fit his political ideas. casuaities the CENTRE MIXED OR SEPERATE SCHOOLS The last Ohio legislature repealed the statue authonziog the establishment to seperate schools for colored pupils.

If this sentiment is traced it will be generally found that the mothers of white chil dren are the most strenuous in insisting Nor is the reason The home training of negro children is not of that character that commends them to white mothers as fit associates for their children, This is a amount of pleading “eq al rights” or the propriety of the co-education of the races changes it.
