Eestrictlng Election Contests. The minimal v In another column of the progress made by the last lcgls hituie In cm Ins some of the intolei lible evils growing out of the act of '74 goxemtng election contests makes Interesting leading. It is especially Interesting to the taxpayeis of Lacka wanna county, who h.ie suffeied perhaps more than the taxpavcis of any other county In l'ennsjlvanla by reason of Ins-incoie. vindictive or spec ulative contests, with bills of CNpcnsc mounting into the thousands. The most Important of the amend ments to the act of the "74 enacted at Hnrrlshurg last winter was the piovl Mon icstiictlng to no Unj,R the time of taking testimony in cfection contests at the public's expense. The theory of this nmendment is that If the mciits of a contest cannot be brought out In time months' time, the man who wishes to continue the pioccdure be yond that limit should be willing to risk the additional expenses If this amendment had been In force pi lor to the Institution of the LangstalT Kelly contest it Is safe to s.iv that It w.ould have saved to the taxpacr.s of this county meie than enough money to Keep In renairs eveiy count v picp- rty for ten jeais. Casuists may c.iv II at Its abstiact Justice: but as n barrier ngalnst Inordinate public expenses it Is a ptactleal necessity. Another valuable amendment, dratt ed by Judge Aichhald, provides that In ( asp any person is allowed to vote fit un election, who Is not leglstereil, but makes an affidavit which by teason of election boaid eirois Is defective, that person, in event of a contest, shall have the light to have those errors conectcd so as not to loe his ote. A thltd amend ment foibldding the allowance to il legal voteis of witness fees or mileage and lequlilng petltloncis in a contest to file with their petition 11 bond sulll cient to cox or any liability in costs completes the legislative iccoid on this important subject as made at the last -csioii. Vigilant enfoi cement of this supplemental y legislation will do much to scale down the abuses under which the people of this county now gioan. Agulnaldo has piobably learned by Fnd expeiience how necessary It Is to discount Mugwump repiesentatlons. Ho Is the victim of Illusive hopes al most wholly of Mugwump cieatlon. The Governor and the Constitution. The icpott that proceedings are to be carried Into the Supiemo court for the purpose of testing the constitution ality of the governor's veto of the flee ti yt book Item In the school appropria tion, also his veto of the resolutions providing for a popular vote on pio posed constlmtlon.il amendments, ,111,1 likewise his failure to convene the le. islatuie In extra sepslon to elect a T'nlted States senator will ee!te teiy Utile alarm. Although factional in origin and intent, we see no icason why such legal piocecdings shoulil not be welcomed by the governoi and his lilenc's. The governor lias acted In nil these mutters on his best judgment niter careful consideration of the ((in stitutional fedtuiP. If his view of the lonatltutlon shall be sustained it will put an end to conttoveisj: It', on the lontraiy, his legal advice shall be shown to have boen defective, he should bo as well phased as any other ritlzen to be put light by the high tribunal of the commonwealth -In spite of the frantic effoits ,if the Wantiinakii spite league to manufac ture a popular otitbutst aifdlust the governor's ionise in these matters it 10 becoming dally mote nppuicnt that he Is rnstahiea by an overwhelming tunjoiity ot the common people. Es pecially Is this true with lespect to tho veto of the freo text bonk allowance. The fact that since 1S')3 fully SJ.000.000 Iras been expended by tho common wealth thioiiPhoul tho various school diHrlcts for tho purchaso of text books, most of which nro toduy in good con dition and fit to bo ucd for borne time in come, coupled with the- fact of the state's pres'-nt shoitage of levcnne, dulls the edge ot tho factional con t billion that tho executive's veto Is a blow at thet schools. Jt does not crip ple tho school work 0110 particle. It simply enfotces the proposition that When thu state Is haul up and in debt, the school children should got alone for two years with the text books now in use, which lire adequate, instead ot niuklng unnecessary renewals. The echoed children will not cutter by rex- son of this object lesson In economy. On the contrary they ate liable to hetietlt. It will touch them to legal d public piopeity Willi the Hdlii'i caro, thoui;htfnhiP8 and thilft that Ihev In stlnetlvetv exhibit when the text books iHPil ate their own. The only suffer ers fiom n two yeais' cut In the free text-book appropriation will be the text-book publishers', otherwise known ns the "book trust"; mid they hnve no right to expect the stutc to buy books unncccsxnilly. Th governoi 's Interpretation ot Ills constitutional duties niny not coincide with the Interpretation which niny hoieafter be put upon them by 1 lie Supreme court That cannot be deter mined positively In the ndvnnce ot a Judicial opinion by that court. The gov ei nor has oboed the dletat'.r of common sense and lollowed the legal advice of thoe In whose Interpreta tion of constitutional points he has confidence. Ho could do no mote. If nnybody wishes to qo beyend the gov ernor for constitutional Interpretation tho Supi cine court door Is open. One of the surest evidences of pros p'erlty is the anxiety of the labor ngl tntor to In lug on the adversity that follows a clogging of business by strike". Uncle Sara's Ledger. At cording to the assistant secretary of the treasuiy. Mi. Vanderllp, theie will be no necessity for any new pio vlslons for revenue dining the next congress If the present into of lecelpts continues. The dally average of te eolpls for March was $1,073,236, for April, $l,6CI,4fln. and for the first eleven das of May. Sl.t37S.7s3. This late means for the year a total Income ot $312,000,000, or about what Secretary (.lucre estimated. The secietnry's esti mate of tho expenses during this peilod Is $310,000,000. which would give n deficiency of about JJS.000.000 Hut it Is explained that some of the esti mates were not nppioptlated by con giess, while otheis will not be expend ed within the jear, so that the de ficiency will be much smaller than the flgutcs indicate. In any event, with a cash balance of IJM.noo.OOO in the tieasuiy. It Is the opinion of Mr. Van derllp that SQvetal annual deficiencies of JJS.OOO.OOO could be met without em barrassment and without legislation for ndditlon.il levcnue. Meanwhile, the tieasury -tiong bix piesents a very gialirylng appeal mice In the Item of golden contents. The slock of gold In the Vnlted Slates has, as C'h.ules A. Conant points out, in 1 teased fiom $G00,11S,S47 on July 1, lf, to JO.TM.GOO on May 1, ISM. In 19.1 gidd disappeared fiom the custom house teeeipts and did not begin to 10 appear until after the defeat of Bryan ism, in January. 198. the piopoitlon of gold to total receipts was 6.S per cent , and it has steadily Increased fiom that time, the propoitlon having been St! per cent, for the first eleven days of Ma, IStrt. The government, in fact, is einbauassed within glut of gold, and it could get many millions moie If It hud small notes to exchange for It. The treasury contnlns only a sufilclent amount of the latter for the necessities of curienl business, a con dition, jemarks Mi, Conant, "exactly the reverse of that which was felt dur ing the trying oais of the silver panic, when gold Mowed steadily out of the treasuiy and nothing but paper came In, either tluough the custom houe or In demands for ledemptlon In gold " Facts like these explain why men like ex-Senator Peffer and the editor of the Salt I-ake Tiibune, who flow away from the Republican patty on the fiee silver tangent, are now com ing back to the otiglnal fold, convinced by manifest ducts of the enor of their ibei ration.

St. Clair McKelway sajs that tho edltoilnl page of a irewsp.iper "re llects the ohaiaeter uf a Journal." Tiuo and alas! In many Instances It also reflects a luck ot chtuactcr. The Bicycle. Mrs. Heinotin. of Chlcugo, president of tho ileneial I'Vcleiatlon of Women's Clubs, has taken exceptions to what tho Kev. V. W. neynold, of Indian apolis, and Ctiptatn I.uko Colleran, chief of the Wcngo detective depart ment, have to say relatlvo to tho al leged immorality of the bicycle. Cap tain Colleran Bays the bicycle leads many women to moral mill; not only that, but every woman who ildes a bicycle Is unbecomingly spoken of by Immoral and depraved men, who may bo found loitering on every street cor ner. Sirs. UcuroUn's defense If flimsy, In deed. She scarcely says a word of de fense for the "bike"; she only a vera that "It Is exercise," and thnt theto is no truth In tho "Immoral" pint of it Why It does not tend to line some women Into evil she falls to explain; she simply says, "It doesn't " Mrs. llciirotlu doubtless finds the statement of Captain Collcrnn n hard proposition to overcome. Captain Colleian is n man ot wide oxpeilrnce, In police and cilmlnal woik, and knows whereof he speaks. It Is tiuo the litcycl in a favoiite pastime of the most refined women of our land, but nevertheless they nro nil exposed to tho tongues of Immoral and depraved men. Women as bicycle ildeis are always iicd ns good subjects for slut ring Jokes be hind the footlights. Why Is It.' The following docs not sound well for Scianton, but there Is no city where n woman Is more exposed to the de pravity of a vicious mind. Women nro being Insulted dally upon our streets, and without cause or piovoca tlon. Tho fault, of course. Is not with the women who ride bicycles. Tho fault Is with their Insultcrs. But tt would become, modest women to give as little opportunity for vicious tcmark.s ns possible. It is possible to dress for bicycle exercise and to behave vvhll riding so as to nullify nil of these ciiti cisins, and tho propilety of doing so should be strongly 111 ged. The recent mission Intrusted to Ad miral Watson has caused a search ot rccotds which reveals the fact that timing the war ot tho icbelllon Ad miral Watson, then a midshipman, pet formed an act of personal valor equalling In bravery and surpassing in results the exploit of Ilobson.

Ajacchus' Advice. Do not uvci -estimate jotusolf except by letter or long-dlst..tici telephone. Thinks the Masses Are OuerediiQafed. Rochester Democrat and (iiioiilele Or JUWTIXOTO.V, the famous Southern Pacific railroae' mag nate and millionaire, dcllveied D .1 speech at a banquet in San Francisco last Satmdav evening in which he arraigned and denounced the existing system of popular education. He declared that the masses are being ovei educated and that the youth of the countiy are spending too many yeais In school. This sentiment Is not held exclusively bv Mi. Huntington. The faults and excieseences of our educational system have led otheis to make a slip In their logic and utti finite to education Itself evils which are due more to methods and to abuse? of edu cation. It 's reallj absmrj to say that tho masses of the people In this country, or In any othci, are overediitated. A majority of boys and gills leave school when they arc about fourteen 01 tlftee'i and never 10-ciiter nn Institution ot learning. They may and do aequhe much kitPW ledge subsequently by lead ing, obseivation and travel, but' It will hindlv be held that knowledge so a -nulled. 11 It be not vicious In Its char acter Is detiimental to their moial or matcilal well being. Certainly th9 education secured bcfoic they leive school cannot be execsivt. That knowledge is puwei" has been illus tintetl in Mi, Huni.ngion's own suc cessful caicei. It has been because he knew so much of rallioading and of busliv ss niethudf. mastering details of finance, of legislation affecting his 111 teiesl", mid of his chosen line of ac tion, that he has been able m suipass most of his cuiitompoiarlcs In iai. toad management and the acquisition of his millions. 0 That many persons In acquiring an education In lulge in what tipoitiug adepts eall overtralnlnc Is obvious to any i.itoful abseiver. They take coutso after totiise, common uphool. .vad nnle, Killegliite, pot-gradiuite and post-post-graduate, following ihini up with apeelal tourset In half ,1 dozen fields of study, until the ben jears of tlicli lives ,110 gone mid then they find themselves out of harmnn with the pi act leal conditions of society and unqualified foi dealing with iuv thing hi partleulai. To be always getting t wiily and never doing Is as focilsh as to begin without getting ready. The Hist eurs of schooling are for the cul tivation of genpi.il Intelligence, and in the nature of things cannot be ippiine with ieferene to 11 student's lire work. Hut hs early as possible a puiposo should lw foinied and education dluct ed towards that end. It Is difficult to understand, In tha absence of a fuller lepoit legnrdlng Mi. Huntington's Hpeeeh, on what giound he buses his opinion that the masses are over-educated We know of no honoiable calling in which Intelligence and knowledge do a man or woman any harm, A fanner who Is a farmer Is 110110 the woue for being 11 scholar. A hack driver who Is alsu a linguist will find hla knowledge of thu languiigcs handy sometimes. The machinist who Is well gioundcd In mathematics stands a good chnnce of advancement and suc cess In his trade. The housewife Is none the worse as a cook for a good book and labnrattny acquaintance with chemistry, nor will she find her knowl edge of physiology, anatnm.v, hygiene, hlstoiy or philosophy In her way In 1 earing a young family. False views of life may bo acquired with nn edu cation, Any man who thinks that be cause ho has won a degtce at college ho Is too good for the woik for which he is evidently liest adapted has a per verted v lew of tho object of education. That theie arc many of this class wo do not deny, but we believe that the peiccntage diminishes with the spread of knowledge. No lepionch now at taches to a mechanical put suit on the part of men who arc graduates of our colleges. Theie .up thousands of them In the countiy nt large In our shops and factories with giltm hands and ovci nils on timing labor bonis. The innjoilty, It Is true, nie In responsible positions, but It Is because their edu cation qualifies them for such places Other things being equal, we don't think Mr. Huntington would oblect to a college-bred engineer on the englii" of his special Haiti 01 of any other tialn, i 0 We believe the education of the masses bejond the simple rudiments of knowledce Is doing much to solve the giave labor and seicial problems of our time. Kducatcd men nie not so easllj misled by fallacious lensonlng as they would have been had the.v remained In Ignorance to be Imposed upon by smalt and unscrupulous leadcis. They have learned to think and to leascm for themselves. They can more icadlly de tect eriors and puncture falsehoods They have become acquainted with the mistakes and follies of former times and they nro more disci Imlnatlng than Ignoiant men legardlng the charactei and quality of the teaeheis whoso In stiuellon the.v receive. There nie evils to be corteeted In our systems of edu cation, but education itself along legiti mate lines cannot be and ought not to he icstilcted.
