Ed‘toriat or An Indictment of Our System of Ed> ucation. As a matter of general pubife interest we give space elsewhere to-day to the leading points of the incisive address of Prof. Walter Smith, of Massach ptts, before the late Edu sep 88 In this city, Prof. Smith was former! H conecied with the suecessful Technical Schools | i | of Industrial Art at South Kensington, England, and was engaged at a large salary to come over and Introduce the same training in the schools of Massachusetts. From his wide reputation and remarkable success his address was one of the leading features of the meeting. He asserts that the safety, the wealth, and Indirectly the happiness of a nation depends upon the technt- cai know iedce and Skill It posseses. Any scheme | 2 Which does not from the first make for the gradual aequirement of such nd skill is Insuiticient and ins; and for the unpractical. he main! that 0 nemes of education have been fo thus de Rt and unpractical the whole subject of ral education is now under trial. The | literary part of education fs ampte pi as been made f eal kne nd SKID required ins jor ngaved in trades and mar. fact medy he advises ls to Introdue 1s of industrial sklil into every grade schools in such a manner that tt and not obst ul edueation, eady abu! t for the edu- onal men; provision should ade for the education of the most ne ass of all. the mechanies. Taking the the eastern, middie and we: exXT ast Year $70,000,000 for public educa. tion, he argues that no adequate re: ved for the money in the way of real which is the fitting of youth for the of adult life and the duties of good It is, in fact, dimi tor educators to defend the present system of edn- cation, particularly against the charge of its Want of practical character tn auy way that commends itself to the common miad by its ex Plicitness and clearness. In this connection the professor indulges In some quiet but effecilve | Sarcasm In regard to the esthetle mist of fine | Phrases in which the direct and simple ob- | Jeet of education has become envelope: glittering generalities about. “develop: Mental and moral faculties of eltizensbip. | | | | Vague processes as ture studies, , are enlarged upon. Want of Practicality on the one hand and uadue expen- siveness on the other are specitied as the defect: Of the present senool system. It fs potated out that the enormous tmportations of forelgn goods. the product of skilled labor, explains | Why a good many of our native workmen are out of employment and why the present conat- Uon of labor ts thriftless anc cable. It | 1s in the interest of p that the | wage-earning capacity of our workmen should be raised by teaching them by sktil and taste | how they may compete with the skilled labor Of the id World. In conclusion Professor Smith urged with force that not only should the nationa! system Of education be made to include tus kind of | training, but that the national government | should establish, or assist in the establishment Of a great Central Technical School of Iadus- trial Art at Washington. This was essential as an example to the whole country, and in order that the extensive treasures of material now existing bere may be utilized. <2 = Passes that Pay. In view of the amendment to the army ap- | Propriation bill, which allows railroad com- | panies to use their own lines for the use of the public and the government, which the Western | Union Telegraph company Is resisting, the ful- lowing extract from the president's report of the Western Union company will strike some Congressmen as peculiar. The president says: “The franks issued to government, offictals constitute nearly a third of the total compli- | mentary business. The wires of the Western Unton company extend into thirty-seven states and nine territories within the limits of the United States, and into four of the British pro- ¥inces. In all of them our property, is more or Jess subject to the action of the national, state and municipal authorities, and the hel rious use of complimentary franks among them has | been the means of saving to the company many = the money value of the free service per- ——__~+e- The plague in Russia seems to be spreading Steadily. There is no nation so remote that the | course of the disease becomes to it a matter of indifference, Asia Minor is in constant com- munication with Russia by land and the Medt- terranean ports by sea. Quarantine and mt!- itary cordons will not prevent the plague from Spreading over continental Europe and even to Fngland tf it once gatns the headway that has | characterized some of its outbreaks in the past. | ‘The soldiers of a military cordon might prevent fugitives from the disease from crossing the line, but, becoming infected themselves, would transmit the plague to those in thetr nelghbdor- hood, and so the disease would spread in spite | of precautions. With the plague in England we should need national quarantine, state | quarantines and every precaution tmaginab! to protect the New Worid. > The sailors’ strike in Liverpool is growing to alarming proportions. Ten thousand sailors, more or less, make a formidabie mob to be sup- pressed. Extra forces to ald in preventing Serious disturbance; are to be brought from Other places, and the city authorities have called upon all well-disposed citizens to work towards the same end. Meanwhile the de- | Parture of vessels is delayed or prevented, col- | Usions oceur between policemen and detach- | ments of the strikers, and there {s general apprebension that the future has worse trouble | im store. England is fast approaching that | Condition im respect to trade and the working | classes which offers such temptations toarater | ‘to piunge the nation tnto war. Emigration or foreign war must relieve the overcrowded occu- Pations. Many of the English industries are dying or dead, and other provision must be Made for those who found employment in | them. e+ —____ Important improvements in the spindle ! ‘Shaped steamers upon which the Winans family of Baltimore have been experimenting so iong and upon which they have spent so much money, are announced. The expectation ts that the time ts approaching in the immediate future when a steamer will be built that will Cross the Atlantic in less than six days at all seasons, and, happy consummation, will pre- vent sea-sickness. The experiments cannot be Drought to a successful conclusion too soon.
