Don't despair, There Id a silver lining to every cloud. Hurt! times have been experienced before,, mid they can be weathered aalti. A philosophical spirit and cheerful fsce is a good standby now. Newspai'EK writers who Hierontinuully finding fault with men who seek election to the Borough Council and School Bo ird of Shenandoah "because they have axes to grind" should go a little deeper into details and name the men they want to lill the position'. Their criticisms would then bear a better imprint of good faith. Repeated insinuations of a ratherBlander ous character have driven away from the field several men who would make ex celleut officials, not because the insinua tions had a bearing upon them, but be cause the general attack wiUiout fcpeclfl cations mide them fear that the people might be improperly led to believe that in becoming candidates they had axes to grind. Had the scurrilous attacks been of a manly nndspecifi c uiracter these men could have eutered the deld without farol having suspicion directed ngaiu3t them. Tun complete statement of foreign com merce in December and in the calendar year 1894 possesses more ih.in usual inter est bee arte of tho heavy outgo of gold. It is impossible to escape the conclusion thnt yold lias been driven out of the country In December and January by financial foolishnes4 at Washington. Tho outgo begnu in the very week in which the President and Secretary of the Treasury started the agitation for state banks and a monetary revolution. Gold had been coming ito the country in the three months September, Octobar and Noveui ber, though not largely. It was strong evidence, indeed, that there was still much foreign distrust of American securities, when the value of gold received in ths country amounted to only $2,500,000, while the merchandise balance for the same three months was over SGO.OOO.OOO. In the month of December again the excess of -.exports was $22,810,120, and this followed an excess of $29,882,510 in November and an excess of 423,032,815 in October. Thus In tho last quarter of the year merchandise exports exceoded imports by $75,823,457, and yet exports of gold began again in December, as Boon as the Administration and Congress began to agitate the cur rency question, and that outgo has not yet ceased. Sechetaiiv Caklisld now asks that the law requiring him to reissue notes of the same denominations as those redeemed be repealed by a clause in tho Sundry Civil Appropriation bill. This is an utterly improper mode of legislating on the cur rency question. If the Democratic majority cannot drive the country to n silver basis by open action, it should not be permitted to do so by stealth and in directly. Of course the Secretary at tempts no concealment of his purpose, which is to suppress the legal tender and Treasury notes of the smaller denom inations, issuing instead notes of larger denominations to an equal amount. Thin would gradually deprive tho millions cf such notes bb they require in dally use, and force them to use silver certificates of the smaller denominations instead of note redeemable in gold. It is a thing which ought not to be done, either openly or stealthily Hut if so radical a change a that is to be made in our currency laws, it ought to be made openly and with due deliberation, not under a spec s of compulsion because an appropriation bill ie pending, nor through the Ignorance or Inattention of meu who may easily fall to rallz that a long step toward the silver standard is threatened iu sueh u maaure. it 1 unjust thnt the rial; of depreciation in the silver paper should be thrown upon the waeearulng millions. The very ureino ot a vastly ltioreased volume of suoh papur would seriously in crease the rttk, und uo retard restoration ot eoufftenee and ot Itiuiuwm. The thing ought uot to be done in any shape, aud if attempted in au appropriation bill, that uiti ouguii 10 ue juiiBu, u necessary by iv sort to all parliamentary devices tor delay. A College Education. Professor Chorion P. Tliwing contrib utes to Tho Forum it suggestivo paper oil tho rapidly increasing cost of a ool logo cduoution in America. In 1750 tho Harvard student was allowed "two Bizzes of broad" for his breakfast. At dinner ho bad a pound of innnt and lialf a pint of hour. For supper thoro was au additional half pint of boor and n "part pyo. " Tho lavorito jnow linginnu uisn reigned oven in thoso days. Let not An glomania dislodgo itl At Harvard tho annual oxponsos of a Btudont In 1830 woro $170. In 1803 thoy rangod, for an economical student, from $484 to $807. It appears thnt it is becoming hnrdor and harder for a poor young mail or woman to got a collcgo education. The cost of it for ono year is greater than the nvorago inoomo of an Amorican family for a year. Mr. Thwing makes ono statoment which wo are inclined to doubt. Ho says most people would bo glad of nn educa tion if thoy could got it. Perhaps so, but not a collego education. Observation fIiows that tho avorago person oaros nothing at all about a collego training. Evon in tho public schools most pupils are wild with joy at tho prospect of tho ending of their school days, and a large proportion drop out of instruction alto gether just as soon as the law allows, ofton bofore,"under ono pretoxt or an other. At the samo time, we bog leave to obsorvo that tho American collcgo courso has not yet bocomo so oxpousivo that tho ablobodiod young Amorican man or woman who is bont on securing it is unablo to do so. Thoso to whom a courso of classics and sciences is tho ono glittering goal worth attaining nro still ablo to accomplish thoir aim by work ing in ono way or another to got tho monoy to support thorn whilo thoy aro at collego. If that were not so, wo should indeed despair of tho future of this republic. Tho added cost of tho collego training is largely duo to tho added articles now necessary for tho student's comfort, to greater espouse for food and olothing. Tho pay of collego professors has also mounted up from $1,000 a year at tho timo of tho American Rovolution to from $4,000 to $5,000 in 1893. Libraries and laboratories aro a bundred times as ex pensive, a hundred times as ofilciont as thoy woro a century ago. Still Thoma: Edison is not a collego graduate. Neither wasLiucoln nor Ben Franklin nor Flor euco Nightingale nor Joan of Aro. Clean Up tho legislators. Is tho Philadelphia Telegraph grow ing giddy at its tinio of lifo? Wo fear so from the following cdt rial iu re gard to tho Pennsylvania legislature. CJiddy or not, howover, tho suggestion about cleaning up state lawmakers in sido aud out is an excellent ono and to bo commended to tho lawmakers ot ovory stato: Having spent J25.000 of the public funds 111 luxurious 11: ill's of one kind und another, chiefly WUObuthtubs and JJCK) French plato mir rors, it is to hit hopw the men at Harrisburg will keep clean this winter bomo people take their imnunl wash in hummer time, when they go nshtng unci tun in, aim tomo in winter, when they mibculculate tho thiekneuH of thi Ice. However, it is ull a mutter of taste, run venience or acrid, nt. The people of Pcunsyl vaniu will overlook tho wild waBte of their money if the result of tho coming plunge at the htato cupit'jl is to clean up the insiuo ns well us tn.' outsi.le.

There are Borne legislative bins that can only bo (jot rid ol through 111,' Hardest kind of ml! B&crillce. It is to be hoped this extravagant lavatory out lay will pay for itself. Still there are cynical people v ho will havo their doubts about it. An industrial movement of consider ablo importance has been in progross far tho pn&t ton years under the surfaco. now begins to bo plainly manifest. is tho shifting of tho manufacture of cotton goods from the north to the south. Tho Now England cotton manufacturers themselves are opening mills in tho cot ton states. Othor things boing equal, manufactured goods cuu always be made best aud cheapest in localities nearest whore tho raw material is produced. Tho coarser grados of cotton huvo been niado in tho south for some years mote cheaply than thoy could bo turnod out in tho north. With the mild climate, abundant f uol and cheap labor of tho cot ton states thoro is promiso of an era of woudorful prosperity to tboso states. It is not likely, though, that tho cottcu mills of Now England will be obliged to shut down in consequence. Governor Stono of Missouri, in mak ing a recommendation to the legislature to use means to encourage and increase the efficiency of the stato militia, cited one argument that is worth noting. He dbclurod that a thoroughly equipped aud trained state soldiery wan i positive neooi-siry, all the more because it would do away witli any pretext for tho inter ference of tho regular army "in puroly domealiu affairs. " Upon the bucks of the negroes of the south there are more rags to tho square inch than cn be seen auywnece outside of Italy. The opening ol 1 ;eii8ivo cot- ton mills will both give wuk to theso blacks mid cheapen materials so that they ouii wear whole clothe.

It wns by their combined effort that tho obnox ious bill for tho conversion of tho English debt was thrown out of congress in 1881. They havo been remarkably free in their criticism of the government's policy, their Ideas brdng usually very radical and far In advance of tho most liberal of liberals. For that reason they havo generally been found in opposition to tho administration. The dignified and firm attitudo of Presi dent Diaz In tho question of tho hour has, however, won their hearts, and tho meet ing of Tuesday was called to support him in the stand he has taken. Tho great mass ot students rushed upstairs into thepalnco shouting for President Diaz. After some llttlo delay tho doors of tho ambassador's offices were thrown open nnd an immense throng entered tho saloon, but the Hall would not hold all that demanded admit tance, and the doors were shut against a groat multitude seeking entrance. Tho appearance of President Diaz by n side door was the signal for an enthusias tic cheer, and his reception partook of tho nature of an ovation. Studunt Rivera Mutio dolivcred an on- rgetle discourse to tho president, who was accompanied by the members of his cab inet. The youthful speaker gave a short synopsis of the history of tho wars of Mex ico, and at its closo presented tho docu ment signed by tho students aud hundreds of citizens. Tho following Is a translation of it: Mr. Prosldont: Tho cause of tho fath erland is tho causo of its sons. Tho stu dents of this capltol havo always received glorious ideas with enthusiasm.
