Industiial commission that niunicipal

-m m AN O'RICLI.. who has
' "' F011,e' decidedly w lsr
jL '.JL HiIiirs, tells Instilietois
Ihev should iipvcr ovcr-jirnl-p
a cIpxpp pupil and never snub h
dull ullP. Hill Hip piesclll sysleni or
willteti eMiiiilnatlons lor pioniotloiis Is
a ciuitlnunt "snub" and dli.eoiiiaRenipnl
to pu.ll4 who aie "dull," or called dull
bpcatisp, however Kie.it may be their
ability to ultlinately assimilate knowl
edge, they have not quick memories, or
are mil possessed of the power of e
picssliiR themselves on paper which hi
the gift of nioie favored srlinoliimlCH.
II Is to bo iciiiciiibcicd also that
those who lark tills power of oxtnes
.slon come often fioni the homes where
co-operation with the school's work of
lialnliiR cannot bo had. The discour
agement. Hip ".snub" of tltidltiR them
selves left behind Is often so rich! as
lo ho nn effectual quencher of ambition
to lea Mi. So the In let period of school
euis to Aihlcli such are limited tails
of even the good it might have done
them, but lor Hip cast-lion system.
When the teacher has the liberty to
advance each pupil according to the
daily lecoid aveiage and the devotion
lo stiidv and improvement demon
strated in dally work, our common
school system w ill take n vast step for
waid. Senator Moigan's solution of the Cu
ban problem, which he intends to sug
gest to the Cuban commission, Is for
it to make ii long story short by ap
plying for admission to the Union as
a state. That would bo an excellent
bargain fiom the Cuban standpoint;
but It would be decidedly tough on
Uncle Sam.
Says Poultney Bigelow : "Commer
cialism runs riot in the United States.
CoriupHon stalks HuourIi the Rovern
inent departments. Congress itself Is
little mine than a brokerage shot) for
tlie sale of authority to fleece the peo
ple." Poultney should take a spring
medicine.
Aguinaldo's manifesto shows that
what tho f illplno ex-dletator has lost
in exuberance ne seems to have gained
in educational experience. In other
woids, while he isu'L so sprightly as he
once was, he knows moic.
"Can a couple many and be happy
on ?20 a week?" Is a question just now
claiming the attention of tlie readers
of the, New York Sun. They can If
they cm be happy at all.
