EDUCATION.
EDITOR Tin : COXTEUVATIVI : :
Just received THE CoxscuvATivn
contniuing Prof. French's article on
"The Duty of the Public School to De
mocracy. " There is little inducement
to "get back" at ono who so frankly ad
mits the "imperative necessity for pub
lic school re-generation and re-construc
tion. "
"Were the army of "uncompromising
opponents" as intense in securing as in
"seeking necessities for the child , " there
would be no hankering for philosopher's
stones. Or were the xeal manifested in
trying to locate or shift responsibilities ,
expended in remedying defects , the dis
puted territory of "homo and school
responsibility" would not bo worth the
effort of conquest. The only way to
make "intelligent and righteous citi
zens" is. to make them , and to the manu
facturer belongs the credit.
The opportunity to "talk back" is
tempting , but usually newspaper con
troversies are more interesting to the
participants than to the public. Prof.
French merits praise for trying to get
out of the ruts , and could I have the
pleasure of meeting him , I should enjoy
an exchange of opinions.
Yours truly , W. S. S.

POLITICAL.
"The ignorant -white voter is as dan
gerous when ho stands in front of the
ballot-box on the day of election as is
the ignorant colored voter , " the Phila
delphia Record ( Ind. Dem. ) tells the
southern constitution - makers. "The
rule that qualifies the unlettered white
man and bars the unlettered black man
is vicious in principle , and bj' reason of
its manifest injustice would settle noth
ing if incorporated in the fundamental
law. "
"There seems to be a settled purpose
of the Virginia constitutional conven
tion not to submit the new constitution
to the people for ratification , " premises
the Chattanooga Times ( Dem. ) . "Cer
tainly , if the new constitution the Vir
ginia convention is forming cannot com
mand a majority vote in an open and
free election , under the rigid Virginia
election law , then that constitution
ought never to be put in force. "
