Compuliory Kdmnlion.
We last week laid bofore our read
ers a supplement to the common
school law, now before the Legislature,
looking to the Prussian method of ed
ucation. If this bill becomes a law,
poor parents ,wil forfeit the' control
of their own children. Tho State be.
comes the guardian Angel, and com
plete Russian serfdom will be inaugur
ated, so fur as education is concerned.
We call tho attention of our readers
to the following excellent article upon
this subject, which wo find in tho
Hurrisburg ratriot, of the 21st, which
deserves an attontlve perusal by every
ono who loves free govermont. Com
pulsory education is as illy adopted to
tho soil of this Kepublto as a brace
of Kings or Kmporors, and the foster
ing of the formor will breed the latter.
The following is tho arliclo ulluded to :
Wo have already laid before our
readora the full toxl of the bill bufore
tho lctfieilulure to scoure tho lultor at
tendance of childron nt school. There
scorns to be an intense dcBire on tbo
part of philanthropic people to bring
10 Dear tue powers ot government in
noarlv ovcrv department of human ef
fort. The old doctrine that the world
is governed too much is discarded by
thoso thoorizcrs, They think that
the world cannot bo governed enough.
It Is for this reason that, like barnacloe.
upon a shin, every year witnesses nn
oxtonding area of bureaus, commis
sions anu E)uurinionucncicg lustcnea
upon the public sorvice, to examine
inlo education, ogriculluro, statistics,
coast lines, liquor consumption, con
iUr service, freight tariffs and the
liko. 'Theso cncroathmonls upon the
propor domain of private enterprise
have already swelled our civil service
beyond that ol any civilized nation on
the earth, and art) fast approaching, if
they have not already attained, a point
where, by tbo mere magnitude of
numbers, our oOicials whose bread and
butter stands at constant hazard, have
beconio themselves a menace to tho
pnblio wolfuro. They are abstrnclod
from tho number of citizens who havo
a mind of Ihcir own.
We are led to this lino of remark,
not by any special enormity of the
hill upon which wo are commenting,
for it is ono of the thousand harmless
expedients which cumber tho slain to
books, but fail to do groat mischiuf
for lack of the necessary machinery
in a free elato to carry tho aims of its
projectors inlo practice. Tho assump
tion embraced in tueso compulsory
education schemes, however, lies at the
root of the evil of paternal govern
mcnt. It bus been the entering wodge
which we have seen in our own lime
drag into its widening rift all the lib
erties of a people until even the con
science of tho individual has bocome
a mailer of stato regulation. Prussian
despoliam is the full grown tree of
I f. L 1 J .!.. .1.-
wuieu jvumpuisurjr euuuuuun nastue
seed. Its advocates blandly assumo
that, becauso of the sad delect ot ig
norance, and becauso ignorant poople
are more apt to commit onmes than
others less ignorant, thorofore the
stato has the riirht to stop between
ignorant childron and deliver over the
littler to taskmasters and trainers of
its choico. This is tho rough, plain
stntcmont, divested of philanthropic
platitudes. It is prod icu ted on the
idea that the state in tho matter of ed
ucational training is authorised to
supplement individual effort and as
sume a power and responsibility nover
delogatcd by tho people and not ac
cordant with right roason. On the
same principle, because of the sad ex
igoncios of. wsr, and becauso soldiers
untrained in their youth make but in
different bendwav against troops bred
to tho use of arms, the state has the
riirht to protect itself against antici
patod menaco by compulsory military
servico. 1 no stato lias tne sumo rient
to protect itself against over-heating
and over-drinking whicu result in dys
pepsia, delirium and ungodliness, all
unmitigated evils. It follows, logi
cally enough, that tho slate may
protect itsoll acnints human depravity
and original sin, up to such a point ns
where the quantum ot sinlulncss in
the state and in the people nt large
miL'ht be evenly balanced, when we
do not seo that the principlo obuld go

But aro the premises correct upon
which compulsory education isground

crimo is in any certain ratio to tho
ascending or descendiug scalo of in
telligence, we deny it. Our own
country furnishos convincing proof ot

Mb. Kditoh : A bill providing for
tho imposition of additional tux on
railroads in this Slate has beon intro
duced, and as those corporations were
opposed to the bill, and wore anxious
to discuss its morits before tho finance
committee of the Sonato, a hearing
was fixed for them on tho evening of
the 12th instant. The Pennsylvania
Railroad Company was represented hy
W. J. Howard, tboir solicitor, who
said the bill destroyed uniformity in
the taxation of corporations ar.d bore
with especial severity on companies a
portion of whore road only tinvorsod
this Stato. Such a tax as is proposod
in tho bill would tako from railroad
companios about one million dollurs
more than they now paid into
tho Slato treasury. The result would
bo to inlerfero detrimentally with tho
business of corporations, and neces
sarily to inorease the burdens of tho
pulio at largo. He considered tho
bill unjust, and rend from tho Gov
ernor's meseago and tho Stato Treas
urer's report to show that it was un
necessary that the ordinary expenses
ol tho Commonwealth could be mot
without increased taxation.
F, B. Gowen, Presidont of the
Philadelphia & Heading Itailroad,
maintained that tho revenues were
sufllciont to meet the current expen
ditures of the government with a
handsome balance to spare. In liis
opinion tho State Treasurer had p-cat-ly
underestimated tho revenues which
will be derivod from corporations dur;
1871 undor oxisting laws to the
amount ol about 8670,000. .Bnsidos
tho State Treasurer 'had oVo'rslatcd
tho sum that would havo to bq ap
plied to the liquidation of the Stato
debt by 8000,000. According to his
(Mr. Gowcu's) cstimalo, tho amount
in tho treasury nt tho end ol tho
year will bo 81,100,000 or $1,200,000,
making allowances for tho 875,000 to
be devoted to tho payment of tho
Slnte debt. A tax should bo imposed
.on corporations that is oquititblo
making no discrimination against
railroad companios. Tbo proper
method would be to tax gross receipts
and drop all oilier taxes, lie said
that tho adoption of the bill ponding
would increase l ho tax of his compa
ny from $800,000 to $1,000,001). He
thon slated that his company last
year employed nearly 20,000 men and
paid them over $10,000,000. Such a
company he thought should Iks protect-'
ed from all unjust legislation. JIo re
ferred to the luct that his company
had agreed to give $150,000, and tho
Pennsylvania company $250,000 to
ward the centennial exposition. If
these companies were burdened .with
an additional tax tbey would bo loth to
conlribute the amount. He said if
tho bill - passed, tho people living
along the line of the road would have
tbo burden to put on them. An at
tempt hud been made, ho said, to cre
ate a feeling against railroad compa
nies, and in favor of Ihe centennial
that unless tho bill paused the opposi
tion would fail. He said Mac key, the
Stale Treasurer, had reports circula
ted through tho press t.ial such would
be the case if increased taxes were
not Imposed. Gowen is smart, and
mado an eloquent and lengthy speech
which was listened to by an appre
ciative audionce with rapt attention.
He was followed by tho Presidents
of tbo Lehigh & Suaquehanna, and
tho Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Baltimore Ituilroads. Senators Wat
loco, llutan and MoClure, of the com
mute, propounded a number of ques
tions to the speakers which were
promptly answered.
The following bills on third reading

thousand mochanica and workingmen
are out of work, and on the verge of
starvation J What a commentary is
this upon the sterootypod resolution
heretofore adopted at all ltadiacl State
and County conventions in favor of
"oconomyl Increasing salaries at
this particular lime is an outrago upon
the peoplo and upon deconcy. Two
thirds of the officers now under the pay
of tho Slate eould bo disposed altogoih
.or, and the other third could have their
salaries cut down instead of increased.
Formerly when such men as Shunk,
Bigler and Packer were Governors,
with a Democratic Legislature to
assist them, wo had none of this reck
less extravagance 77ii-n the Govern
or's salary was $3,000. Now $10,000.
Then tho Governor's messenger re
ceived $400. Now $1,200. Then the
Slate Librarian's, salury was $000.
Now $2,000. Then we had no House
messenger, tho Deputy Door-keeper
performing tho roesongcr's duties.
Aow we pay to tins nrio otucer ?00.
77ien the Deputy Secretsry of the
Commonwealth received $l,200ayear.
A'ou? $2,500. Then we had no pages
in cither House. Now about iSI
Then tbo publio grounds about the
capitol were cared lor by an old man
for $300 a year. Note we pay for the
duly $8,000. Then our Governor
rented a houao to live in, and paid the
rent out ol bis $3,000 salury. Now
we provide a $00,000 house for the
Governor, and mako a yearly appro
priation for furniture amounting to
inoro than the uovernor s lormer
salary 1 Then to inaugurate it Govern
or cost $300 or $400. Now $4,000 or
$5,000. Then when an ex-Governor
d'ed be was bnrid at the expense of
his lamily. Aow to bury an ex Uov
ernor it costs tho poople between
$4,000 and $5,000. See last Auditor
General s Jteport concerning the fu
ncrul ot ex-Governor Geary. Then
tho whole expenso of tho Adjutant
General's office when we had a military
organization to feel proud of, was $300
a year. Now, wilb about one negro
company in each county, Ibis office
costs us over 81 a, (Kill a rear.
But wo will go no farther. Webave
four office holders now whore we bad
one formerly, and the expenses of (he
State government are now six times
greater than lormerly. I Ins is lie
putlicaa against Democratic rule.
Thus fur the people have said amen to
this extrvsganoo and villainy. But,
Ihunk God, they aro getting their
eyes open at last, and when tbo oppor
tunity arrives the deceivers of the
people will be hurled from power.
Tax-payers aro beginning to feel the

that tho security was not for the pay

Jt Warning to Public Robber:
Tho local of tho Harrisburg Patriot
of the 23d Inst., in alluding to Bill
Kemble's "Addition, Division nnd
Silence" subjoot, says: , '
I'The fine weather on Saturday Indnoed lis
friends to remove Qeorce 0. Kvans from prison
to Philadelphia. Owing to his ftlile health he
waa oonveyrd to the Pennsylvania railroad de
pot in a oarriaga, aooompaoied by bis daugher.
Tha train whion bore hiia to hie deatinatlon waa
the l'aeifle expreae. Unless ha should show aigns
of Improvement at bia home In a short lima Mr.
Kvana will be taken to one of the milder southern
Staloa probably Florida."
. Such Is the last acoount wo have of
tho man who robbed tbe taxpayers of
Pennsylvania of t20,000. An intel
ligent, halo, hoarly man, tortured to
death by a pack of venal political
dogs who havo used Evans just as tho
burglar docs his "jimmy," for a vory
hard purpose. W hy doos Evans not
toll what he did with the money he
collected and pockotcd ? If he gam
bled it away In regular black leg
stylo, and probably he will nevor win
back a dollar of it, why not lot tho
poor dovil alone, and let bis broken
spirit and doathly appearance stand
us a warning to all evil doers iu tho fu
ture. . A man tortured to dcnlb by
bisfriondsisapioceofsuch refined and
unheard of meekness, that ordinary
mortals can only contemplate, but
nover realizo, and can only be endured
by thoso versed In "Addition, Divi

Professional Witnesses Thore
is a class of men at Washington who
make a living by acting as witnesses
bofore investigating coin mi ttees. The
pay of such witnesses is $2.50 a day.
Thoso professional witnesses manage
to get tbomsolvos subpoenaed early
and thoir examination delnyed until
near tho end. As these investigations
often run through three months or
half a year those fellows draw a snug
sum of monoy in each case. When
called tbey have nnevidonce of import
