SOME DISCONTENT WITH THE ADMINISTRATION, BUT NOT AMONG THE BUSINESS MEN—FELLOWS WHO WANT DEMOCRATS TO HAVE THE OFFICES DIS- SATISFIED, A Star reporter met Representative Campbell, of New York, today. He is fresh from the great metropolis, “How are things in New York?” asked the re- porter, ‘Mr. Campbell understood at once that the ques- tion referred to politics. “Well,” he replied, “I'll tell you just how itis. ‘Things are getting in bet- ter shape. There is much discontent among dem- ocrats yet, and something ought tobe done. I guess it willcome all right in the end, though. Business men all like the administration. I meet them at dinner, here and there, and we naturally talk of those things. I meet prominent and influ- ential business men who are republicans, and they all praise Mr. Cleveland, They are all satisfied with him, They like the administration, You know they have always sald that the democrats Were not fit to run national affairs; that they would do very well in local affairs in some cities, but that they had a lotof greenbackers and cranks: among them, and they would ruin the credit of ‘the country and break up business if they got in power. Well, they have found that such was not ‘the case, and they like it—that 1s, the business men, Sometimes I put a leading question to them. SaysI: ‘If Mr. Cleveland is re-nominated will you. vote for him?’ and many of them reply yes, they will, That is the feeling among those people. The country Was never in a better condition. They all feel that their money and all the business inter- ests are safe under this administration. Money ts easy; if you have any sort of a proper enterprise for an investment they are not afraid to go into it. Now comes the other class, such as is represented by the middie mass of democrats like myself. There is pretty oonsiderable discontent. It is not ‘those individuals who want offices that I speak of, but democrats who would like tosee other Ocrats in.” “Will this discontent lead any of them to bolt oe Cleveland is renominated?” the reporter ced. “Bah! no,” he replied, scouting the idea.“ No, no, it don’t mean anything like that.” Wil Mr. Cleveland get the New York delega- tion?” asked the reporter, “Yes, certainly. ‘There will be no trouble about that, It will be this wa Mr. Cle’ nd will be Tenominated for the Presidency, and Mr. Hill for governor of New York. Mr. Hill is mighty strong ‘with one section of the party; and Mr. Cleveland ts strong With the other. “Mr. Hil will go right in among his folks and bring them out. There is good politics in that. Governor Hill and Mr. Cle id are good friends, There is no more trouble between them than there is between you andme. They will manage things all right, ‘They will both be re-elected, oe you will see. The democrats are going to si wer.” soe ee EDUCATION AND BELIGION. An Interesting Discussion on This Sub- ject Lust Evening Before the Congre- gational Club, “as our school and collegiate education become two much secularized?” was the subject of an in- teresting discussion at the meeting last evening of the Congregational Club at the Congregational church. ‘The president of the club, Mr. L. Deane, presided, and pleasantly introauced each of the Speakers, The discussion was opened by Dr. Pat- ton, the president of Howard University, who sald that some religious instruction ought to be intro- duced in every system of education from the pri- mary department through the higher grades. sAsto ‘whether education had become too much secular- ized, that depends very much on the point of view. a be in the coutTol of the. priests, fy Ehinks chat there is too lstle religion 1k modern education, while the good old New Eng- pastor, Who in former years was accustomed to visit the schools in his locality and hear now would deplore ‘The catechism religious instruction. complain that they can’t have the religious exercises they would Uke to schools, They would like to have offered, hyrnns sung and the Bible read. many people object to It that It can’t be people are no longer all jon- ag was the case some years ago in New Eng- are \pport fy rights were equal. "He did not believe in f testantisin upon a Catholic , nor Catholicism upon @Protest- ant minority. He thought there was too great a tendency to put off on the State the duties that bel to church and the famil; ‘The re- bility could not be thus shifted.” The pri- ‘ite institutions ‘not. dependent. on the public funds had the full responsibility in this matter, and he looked with apprehension upon such Movements at Harvard which recently abolished compulsory attendance upon dally prayers. The tendency was not a one. The speaker said ‘that his position on this subject was simply this: ‘That when Christian had the matter en- rely under their control they should introduce religious teachings as largely as possible in the schools without interfering with the rights of oth- ers, ‘THE NEXT SPEAKER. Dr. T. C. Chamberlin, president-elect of the Wis- consin University, called attention to the lange in- creage during the past twenty-five years in the elements of secular education, both in the com- mon schools and in the colleges, while in the in- struction of religion there has been but an ampli- fication of the forms. This fast growth may give use to the impression of the increase in seculart- zation in instruction, In some sections of the country where there hasbeen a reaction against the repression of the freedom of inquiry the question for discussion could be answered in the aMirmative, He favored the cultivation of the re- mus spirit in the public schools, without teach- Ing tnose doctrines of religion Which ure not gen- Pte pe. GALLAUDET, the president of the Deaf Mute College, was the next speaker. He spoke in favor of religious in- struction in the public schools, but of an unde- nomfnational character. He thought that the children of parents of one faith should be taught So respect the children of parents of another faith, He thought that religious instruction cou’ left entirely to the denominations, for m: children are not under the influence ot te. jous denomination. In determining 1 ra character of religious instruction in the puviic ‘schools there should be a spirit of compromise. A book of Scripture selections taken from the Donay Bible and the Protestant Bible, for example, might ‘be used, and fn order to avold offense to the Jews ‘the divinity of Crist need not be made prominent, ‘Dut his moral teachings, the excellence of whicl all ize, might De Sof Toren.
