Democracy and Education.
In another column we present the
Philadelphia Record's reply to a com
ment made by this paper relative to an
editorial In which It had poked fun at
those who have resisted the proposed
cut of Jl,0O0,O0O In the state appropria
tion for the free public schools. The
sense of that editorial as we recall it,
rot having preserved the exact lan
guage of it, was certainly, in our reading-
of It, adverse to the extension of
state aid; but since the Record dis
claims this Interpretation, we cheer
fully withdraw It.
It is a fact, nevertheless, that the
Ttecord seems wholly toajuverlook the
vital Interest which the state, as a
state, has under our form of govern
ment In free popular education. . Mon
archies are maintained by great
armies, in which all male citizens are at
some period subject to complusory en
listment. Resting upon the principle
or might, it is right for a monarchlal
state to require Its citizens to con
tribute of their physical strength, and
skill to its security. The obllgatibn Is
a Just one, logically arising from the
particular form of covernmenL In a
democracy like our own, however, we
have no great standing armies and no
forcible peace enlistments; we expect,
and when necessary we have a right
to require, the citizens of this free gov
ernment to bring to that government
the security of a reasonable education,
fitting them to participate as electors
in the elections upon which the gov
ernment's character and perpetuity
rest.
Thus arises the necessity and the
Justification for state aid and state
supervision of the free public schools;
and thus, also, do we find ample war
rant for the enactment by the state,
at the will of the voters of the state
through their legal representations, of
compulsory education. To commit this
vital problem to local solution would
be to make educated communities more
educated' and Ignorant communities
more Ignorant for each community
would vote only so much money to
educational purposes as It would have
appreciation of the needs of education.
If Democracy, In Its partisan sense,
had the management of the public
school problem. It would probably
make as bad a mess of It as It has
made of the other great questions com
mitted by a deluded people to its tem
porary mismanagement. That Is why
.we intimated that Democracy end ed
ucation must be Incompatible, ; -
On the Up tirade.
: Archbishop Ireland speaks truly and
to the point when he says that the re
turn of prosperity to the working
classes in this country must come from
the pulling out of capital from its re
cesses Into old and new Industries, the
development of railroads, iron plants,
and factories of all kinds. In the pres
ence of the danger of strikes and riots
nothing is more certain than that capi
tal will "stay In its vaults and the
wheels of Industry will not move."
The archbishop opportunely adds:
It Is not tho time for labor or laborers to
be discussing theories of the rolnllons of
capital and lnbor and vice versa. The new
thing the all-Important question Is to get
to .work.. The object for all should be to
mnke the country prosperous, to live hap
pily, and that cannot be attained without
pence. I believe there Is a general dispo
sition prevailing In all parts of the country
to give to labor reasonable wages as soon
as the Industrial situation will permit.
But capital demands absolute safety In do
ing this, and some return. Thoro are, of
course, exceptions to this general rule
here and there capital does go to ex
tremes In treating with labor. But, on the
whole, I do not find any disposition but
mac to remunvruio lauor luiriy wnera
business conditions permit. Above all
things, X bellove we should keep our eyes
upon the general condition of the country,
and not that of a specltlc class. Then
were many elements loading to the late
depression In regard to which we may as
wall be candid. One was the popullstia,
ceml-Eoclallstlo' legislation which was en
forced or threatened In many states. It
Boomed in the eyes of many as if capital
was the enemy of the whole country, and
the result was that capital disappeared
front our midst and the whole country was
flat. For Ave . or ten years to come . we
must endeavor te coax capital bnck, and It
'iU the only safe' policy for us to pursue.
Both rich and poor are Interested alike
la the welfare of the whole country, and. I
have that confldenco In nil Americans th.it
I believe peaceful representations and no
tions will grailunlly do away with nil dnn
ger of abuse on either the Eldo of capital
or labor.
During a recent visit to eastern
cities tho St. Paul prelate made care
ful inquiry as to the outlook for Im
provement in business activities, and
he says:
The particular thing with which I was
Impressed In the eai;t was tho hopefulnesH
prevailing In all tho business circles with
which I came In touch. I met ninny men
of national Importnnco anil of groat busi
ness experience, representatives of great
Interests, and they said to mo that unless
something very unfortunato occurred wo
were on tho eve of a remarkable period of
prosperity. Of course, this country, with
Its wonderful resources and activities,
could not be kept down very lonir. and, In
fact, never would have been down but for
the miscalculations and faults of the peo
ple of the country themselves, which pe
riodically, It seems, have to bo uppermost.
I saw all of the great Industries of tho
east reviving. In Iron and the other great
market products there was a decided up
ward tendency as to wanes, better times
for the wago enrnnrs nnd at tho different
factories larger orders Doing received than
for a number of years past. While notic
ing this phase of the new industrial move
ment, I at the same t'me found that the
crop prospects are very good nnd Ihnt
economy of the people practiced for some
years past lias begun to tell on demands
for trade supplies. All over the country
various stocks of goods have been ex
hausted and In consequence now thero
must be a large demand for factory prod
ucts af all kinds.
Thoro can bo no denial either of the
wisdom of the archbishop's advice or of
the accuracy of his statements of fnct
In relation to the business situation.
Tho American people are once more on
the up grade; and they will gather mo
mentum for the ascent by giving heed
to the words of this honest and earn
est western patriot.
The Decision in the Debs Case.
From the Chicago Timcs-IIerald.
By a unanimous opinion the supreme
count of the Unified States has refused
tho writ of habeas corpus in the fise of
Euegno V. Debs and his associates, and
the offenders must now serve out their
terms of Imprisonment In Jail to which
they were sentenced by Judge Woods.
The decision, rendered as It has been
by the full court, and without a dissent
ing voice, Is one of th? most important,
if not the most Important and far
reaching 'that has e-er been announced
by that great tribunal. It cuts away
the whole ground that has heretofore
been the basis of strikes against rail
roads, and declares that a United
States court, or Judge, has the power
to restrain men by Injunction from in
terfering with or obstructing the, op
eration of the lnsterstate commerce, or
the carrying of malls, and that whoever
disobeys such Injunction Is subject to
fine and Imprisonment by the court
whose order has been disobeyed.
This does not mean, as one of the
prominent lawyers for Jlr. Debs tries to
make out, that there Is to be an end to
all labor unions buit it does mean that
force and violence must not be used to
carry out the objects of such organiza
tions. Labor unions, like all other as
sociations, must be law abiding, and
they cannot be permited to carry out
their purposes by intimidation 'tend
force. Jlen may strike and refuse to
labor, but they will not bo suffered to
prevent others from working In their
places. If they do so they may be prose
cuted criminally, and also be punished
for contempt of court If they refuse to
obey the orders of the court in respect
to obstructing the operation of the
railroads Chose service they have
abandoned. To this extent only the
decision goes- It does not break up la
bor unions, nor In any way Interfere
with their legitimate objects. In truth,
It conserves them and makes them
more than ever Indispensable to the
worklngman; Labor must atlll associ
ate and combine, but must accomplish
Its ends by diplomacy and the arts of
civilisation. , .
After all, brute strength1 Is the resort
and method of the savage. It Is the de
pendence of man In his lowest estate.
As he advances In knowledge and Intel
lectual power, craft and skill take the
place of physiclal power, and Hercules
yields tho palm to Ulyssea. 6o dt will
be hereafter, and the worklngman,
raised to a higher plane of thought and
action, will have his rights accorded to
him, not because he demands them,
club In hand, but because he Is able
to Impress himself Intellectually and
morally upon hla employers. Labor
and capital are not rA'als but friends
and coworkers. Whatever lends to the
discomfiture of one Injures the other,
and this decision will more and more
tend to the throwing down of all arti
ficial barriers that have been erected
between them. i i ,
Mr. Whitney as a Prophet.
It Is gratifying to note that, tho
money plank of the Ohio Republican
platform does not pleaso the Philadel
phia Record, which calls It a "cowardly
example" because It does not Join
hands with the British free trado prop
aganda now on In this country In be
half of gold monometallism. "Interna
tional bimetallism" it calls an Irides
cent dream which can never bo real
ized; and In the next breath censures
Senator Sherman for not toeing square
ly up to the ultra "gold-bug" chalk
line.
All this la gratifying, because It
ought one of these days to be sufficient
to indicate to Charles Emory Smith
and a large number of other good East
ern Republicans that they are in an
exceedingly mlafit company while
training with the free traders of the
British school of economists for, a
needless fight against silver. The duty
of Republican is not to fight silver,
but .to fight the gold-bug free traders
who would accomplish by gold mono
metallism what they have not yet been
able to accomplish by ' free trade"
namely, tii4 destruction of American
Industry.
The duty of Republicans, we repeat,
Is not to work up hostile sentiment
against silver, but rather to work for
such safo legislation as shall bring
about the harmonious parity of both
gold and silver which Is demanded by
the lost national Republican platform,
and which was well expressed by the
recent Ohio Republican convention,
when, with John Sherman in tho chair,
it sold:
We favor bimetallism, and demand the
use of both gold uid silver us standard
money, either In accordance with a ratio
to bo fixed by an International iiKseement,
If that can bo obtained, or under such ro
etrlctions nnd such provisions to bo de
termined by legislation as will socuro tho
maintenance of the purity of values of dho
two metals, bo that tho purchasing and
dcbt-pitylng power of tho dollar, whether
of sliver, gold or paper, shall bo at all
times equal.
As to the claim of the gold-bug free
traders that International bimetallism
Is a delusion and a snare, an utter Im
possibility, we have the eminent testi
mony of ex-Secretary William C. Whit
ney, Just returned from a six-months'
tour of Europe, that International bi
metallism is a matter of but three or
four years. Kngland, he observes, Is
ripening for it. There Is r.ot a univer
sity professor In England today who
does not favor bimetallism, nor a big
manufacturer. The manufacturing
cities of England are for It. Among
tho statesmen there are many In tho
conservative ranks, under the leader
ship of Arthur J. liulfour, In Its favor,
and the labor organizations have
already placed themselves on record in
favor of England's taking steps for nn
International agreement. Of course, In
Londii, there Is ' what would corre
spond to our Wall street, In the oppo
sition. However, Lidderdale, manager
of the Hank of England during the
Baring difficulties, is a bimetallism Mr.
Whitney then recalled that tho upper
house of the Prussian Diet had record
ed Itself in line with bimetallism.
"Thero Is no dispute over bimetallism,"
said Mr. Whitney, In conclusion, "it is
over the method of obtaining It."
Will it be hastened by Republican
desertion of the Republican platform,
or by Republican co-operation with tho
free trade gold monometalllsts who
scout that platform as a device of
demagogues? Is It not time for all true
Republicans to get back In line?
Mr. Cleveland Is highly Indignant at
the silver men's "selfishness and cupid
ity;" but the latter can have compensa
tion by remarking the beautiful philan
thropy and unadulterated altruism of
the I'ierpont Morgans and the Roths
childs. Senator Palmer, of Illinois, thinks
Secretary Carlisle will head the Demo
cratic hope in the next presidential
campaign. But wouldn't it be some
thing of a pity to sacrifice so able a
man?
Secretary Carlisle will find It diffi
cult to convince the people of the north
that wild-cat state bank notes or fed
eral warehouse storage certificates
ought to be gradually substituted for a
currency based on safe bimetallism.
A good way to avoid being bled by
unreliable foreign building and loan as
sociations is to do business with reput
able home associations, whose men and
methods are not subjects of doubt.
The report that Superintendent
Byrnes, after all, is to go will receive
more credence when he shall have gone,
as he should have done weeks ago.

The inherent wit of the Hibernian has
rarely been better Illustrated than' In this
narrative from tho New York.Advertlser:
Pat was on his way to church and on the
road met the priest.
"Good morning, Pat."
"Good morning, your reverlnce.''
"Where are you going?"
"To mass, sor."
"Well, Pat, what Is tho meaning of
mass?"
Now Pat did not know, but he was bound
not to let the priest find It out.
"Tho lolkcs of you asking the lolkes of
me the meaning of mass."
"Now, Pat, tell me, anyway."'
"I don't like to tell you."
"But suppose a Protestant should ask
you?"
"Oh, I could easily tell him."
"Well, I will bo a Protestant and moot
you at tho next corner."-
Ho the priest walkod away and mot Pat
at tho next corner.
"Good mornlng.'Pflt."
"Good morning, yer honor."-
"Where are you going?"
"To mass, sor."
"What does mass mean?"
"Well, If you're a Protestant, it's nono
of your business."

Commodore Vnndnrbllt's lottor of re
fusal to an applicant for a railroad pnns
which was so illegible that tho recipient
traveled on It for years, Is duplicated by
this amusing story from Harper's Young
People: More than u century ago a .Mas
sachusetts clergyman had occasion to
address a letter to tho general court or
LMussnoliuseittes upon game subject of
great interest at that tlmo. When tho
letter was received tho court ordered the
clerk to read it, nnd wero lllld with wrath
at what appeared to be these words In
opening: "I address you not ns magis
trates, hut ns Indian devils." "What!"
they cried. "Head that over again. How
does bo uildress us?" "Not ns magistrates,
but ns Indian devils," repeated tho clerk.
"That's what he says." The letter was
passed pround, and the Judges were by no
means pleased to see that the clerk had
apparently made no mistake. Very angry
at what they believed to be nn Insult, Hio
Judges passed a veto of censure upon tne
clergyman, and wroto to him demanding
an apology. He came before them In per
son, when itt turned out that where tho
Judges had rend Indian devils he hud writ
ten Individuals which, of course, inudo
nn apology unnecessary; but the reverend
gentleman was admonished to Improve his
handwriting If ho wished to keep out of
trouble.

Philadelphia's proverbial slowness was
tho topic of conversation at the Rnlelgh,
says the Washington Post, nnd the Quaker
City mnn was good-naturedly taking tne
Jokes of his companions. It was reserved
for a New Yorker, Btrunge to say, to tell a
story to remove the Impression that every
thing Is dull, commonplace, and prosaic
In tho Keystone metropolis and that
things out of the ordinary never occur
there. "Why, even Philadelphia has its
romances, Incredible as It may appear,"
said ho. "It Isn't a great many years ago
sln'co there was a well-dressed, distinguished-looking
young swell who was tho
Idol of all tho girls and was Invited, feted,
angled for by all tho mammas and daugh
ters. They worked slippers for him. Ho
was Intimate and Informal In dozens of
cxclusivo houses. Polite and affable to
all the women, It wns impossible to hook
him. One lino day It came to light that
all tho tlmo he was being wdned and dined
and was lionized ad nauslum he was mar
ried and living quietly over In West Phil
adelphia. He had lodgings at his club, got
his mall there, and society was not In his
confidence. Philadelphia was very nearly
thrown Into spasms by tho story of his
double life."

STATE AID FOR SCHOOLS. ,
FroVn tho Philadelphia Record.
"The Philadelphia Record Is entitled to
the unique distinction of being the only
paper In the atate which Is opposed to giv
ing state aid to the public, schools. It
probably believes that education and De
mocracy aro Incompatible." Scranton
Tribune.
The Scrnnton Tribune probably misrep
resents the Record through careless read
ing. The Record has never opposed giv
ing state aid to the public schools. But
It Is opposed to making the schools en
tirely reliant upon the state support. The
Record believes in homo rulo, and that the
efficiency of tho school system will be best
subserved when 'the Interest of the peo
plo Bhall bo direct. The state cannot with
nilvantugo be made to stand In place of
tho parent or the local community by the
remission of direct taxation. Tho less it
meddles the better.. The constitution pro
vides that a million dollars shall bo paid
yearly to tho schools from the state treas
ury, and this sum Is probably as much as
may be Judiciously distributed. Thero Is
added expense, risk and circumlocution
for every added hand through which tax
money pusses In the round It makes from
tho pocket of tho taxpayer until It finally
reaches the pocket of tho person who last
receives It in quittance of publlo service,
Tho nearer our home affairs shall bo kept
under home guidance the greater the
oconomy and the more satisfactory tho ro
sults. Education and Democracy are not In
compatible. So far from it, the belief that
tho people aro capable of self-government
Is a tenet of tho Democratic faith. It Is
only tho enemies of Democracy who insist
upon governing the people at arm's length,
and as If they were sheep to be driven
hither nnd thither rather than human
creatures to be trusted to manage their
own affairs.
