Every individual on entering the work of the teacher incurs an ob ligation to maintain the dignity of the vocation and to make it honora ble in the eyes of men. There is no vocation in which a gveater purity of character an.i a higher standard of moral excellence is required than that of the teacher. And any course of action which tends to diminish public confidence in the teacher or his vocation must be termed a violation of the princi ple, if not the letter, of a code of ethics. Every teacher should entertain a due respect for the wisdom and judgment of his seniors. In turn, teachers of experience, and standing should extend every courtesy and render every assistance possible to young teachers just entering the work. In general, every teacher is under obligation to aid and encour age his follow teachers by a friendly recognition and appreciation of their work. KEY WORDS Or FOUR ADMINISTRA TIONS.

THE TLEDO E OF TE ACE OLNEY AND PAUNCEFOTE SIGN THE ARBITRATION TREATY. The Frenldenft Kxpresrs ths Hops That It Will Mark ths IWInnln of World wide anil Fndnrlns Amltr King Osear to Bn the Final Arbitrator. WAsnioTof, Jan. 13. The Anglo American arbitration treaty, to which had been affixed the signatures of Secretary of Btte Olney and the Hritish emliassnuor, Sir Julian j'auncefote, has been transmit ted by President C'lovrland to the senate fur Its ratification and a duplicate copy forwarded by sitecinl messenger to London fur the approval of Lord Salisbury, the English prime minister. I he following is the text of the presi dent's message: I transmit herewith a treaty for the ar bitration of all matters in difference be tween the United States and Great Brit ain. The provisions of the treaty are the result of long and patient deliberation and represent concessions made by each party for the sake of agreement upon the gener al scheme. Though the result reached may not meet the views of the advocates of imme diate, unlimited and Irrevocable arbitra tion of all International controversies, it Is nevertheless confidently believed that the trenty cannot fail to be everywhere rec ognized as making a long step In the right direction and as embodying a practical working plan by which disputes between the two countries will reach a peaceful adjustment as matter of course and in or dlnnrv routine. In the initiation of such an Important movement it must be expected that some of its features will assume a tentat ive char acter looking to a further advance, and yet It Is apparent that the trenty which has been formulated not only makes war be tween the parties to It a remote possibility, but precludes those fears and rumors of war which of themselves too often assume the proportions of a national disaster. It is eminently fitting as well as fortu nate that the attempt to accomplish results so lwnellcent should be initiated by kin dred peoplos, speaking the same tongue and joined together by all the ties of com mon traditions, common institutions and common aspirations. The experiment of substituting civilized methods for brute force as the means of settling internation al questions of right will thus be tried un der the happiest auspices. Its success ought not to be doubtful, and the fact that its ultimate ensuing benefits aro not likely to be limited to the two countries Immediately concerned should cause It to be promoted all the more eagerly. The ex ample set and the lesson furnished by the SECRETARY OLNEY. successful operation of this treaty are sura to be felt and taken to heart sooner or later by other nations and will thus mark the beginning of a new epoch In civiliza tion. Profoundly Impressed as I am therefore by the promise of transcendant good which this treaty affords, I do not hesitate to ao compnny Its transmission with an expres sion of my earnest hope that it may com mend Itself to the favorable consideration of the senate. Grover Cleveland. Tarms of ths Traatr.

Bosnia's Rlgnlflcant Inquiry. London, Jan. 18. The Chronicle's Wash ington corresjiondent says: "Secretary Olney, replying to a question of the Russian minister, Mr. E. de Kotze bue, as to whether the arbitration treaty with England was offensive and defensive or anything In the nature of an alliance, said that the question might be answered yes and no; that in the ordinary diplo matic acceptance It was not an alliance, but that it Is an alliance in support of the Monroe doctrine, which England recog nized by the terms of the Venezuelan treaty. 1 If the arbitration treaty is rati fied,' Mr. Olney said, 'it practloally makes Great Britain our ally for the maintenance and enforcement of the Monroe doctrine. ' " The correspondent of The Chronicle, commenting upon the above, says: "Mr. Olney recognizes that England is the more nntural ally of America than Russia, whose hlthorto professed friend ship for the United States is meroly hatred of England. It is probable that Russia will do her best to persuade the senate not to ratify the treaty. " The Chronicle In an editorial regards the foregoing matter as of the deepest im portance and says that it desires nothing better than that Russia should take the course indicated. "The scales will then fall from Americans' eyes," it oonoludes. HIS OWN SUCCESSOR. Piatt of Connections Is Again ths Candi date of ths Republican Canaas. Hartford, Jan. 18.

Trenton, Jan. 18. The opening of the one hundred and twenty-first New Jersey Legislature thrilled the hearts of Republic an. It was the first legislature in 80 years to receive an annual message from a Re publican governor. The desks of tha senators and assembly men were weighted down wltb, flowers sent by their admirers. The organization of both houses was ef fected without a ripple, the officers agreed upon by the Republicans being elected with the mere formal opposition of Dem ocratic candidates. The message of Governor Griggs and the report of the commission appointed a year ago to investigate the question of taxation, particularly railroad taxation, were pre sented. Just what action will be taken on the taxation report cannot be foretold yet. Th H iidson members would like to have some thing which would treat their county more lllierally, but may make up their minds to be satisfied. President Williams made an Innovation in the senate by naming his committees at the opening session. The result of this was the immediate introduction of a lot of bills which heretofore had been held back.
