HE EVENIN WASHINGTON: FRIDAY - May 16, 1890. Cireutattes n Advertising Medium is worth ished in George Washington was the untiring advo- cate of popular education and in his letters, speeches and public documents he advocated the establishment and maintenance of schools, colleges and universities, He gave of bis pri- vate moans to such purposes as unfolded them- selves in Virginia and proposed to give to a na- tional university at the Capital the proceeds of lands in the Potomac company which he ac- cepted for his interest in its affairs only on the condition that it should be devoted to some ed- ucational object. The project of a national university of a high grade of learning—a school to tench political as well as other science and the literatures of the world as well s3 lan- xuages—he supported with untiring perti- nacity. His thought chiefly was the incalea- tion here of the great lesson of a broad patriot- ism above local and tectional considerations. Just as he outstripped most others of Lis compeers in statesmanship when he first of all men suggested the Supreme Court of the United States, so he ‘was by Madison's side and Hamilton's in the effort to secure a United States university. He ‘Was even willing to adopt a singular proposi- tion to transfer to our capital a foreign university whose position at a revolution- period in a land of liberty like our own was deemed to be no longer tenable, To the end of his career he stimulated his countrymen to carry out the designs of a great university. Dying, he bequeathed them the lofty task he had endeavored to perform. The planof a federal university bas been since the last cen- tury advocated by some of our foremost public men and educators, It has met with favor at the hands of a considerable = of the press and bas been well received by the public. But other enterprises have crowded ont the subject, The late Senator Howe, of Wisconsin, was a warm friend of the project. Another Senator, from another and older section in civilization, now appears as the champion of the measure. Many who would otherwise have constitutional objections to Mr. Edmunds’ bill on the ground of the original rejection of the proposition in the convention which framed the Constitution concede that this objection was removed by the adoption of the provision concerning the ten iiles square and admit that the authority to establish the university is conferred in the control, vested in Congress, of the federal dis- trict and territory. The benefits to be derived from a national university are obvious and need not be set forth in a formal manner. The clash of forces on the silver and tariff questions and the consid- erations of economy urged so strongly at this time will doubtless prevent the measure from attracting much attention at this session. But in due course of time, when doubtless the projected Methodist and Baptist universities, which have already made such headway in the movement toward practical realization, have become accomplished facts, and are enjoying the unrivalled advantages which the capital offers as an educational center, Washington may be permitted by the republic to add to her treasures 23 the city of universities, the university of which George Washington dreamed. re “Essayists who enjoy formulating theories for an ideal government admit that their cher- ished systems can come only through the politi- cal activity of the people. Now, tokeep the people active, court must be made to their personal, individual interest. Let them con- sider that there is not only public but personal advantage to be gained. Then they will work. And for working they will be rewarded, . “It is patriotism more than money-secking that actuates men who take an interest in our political life. So says Mr. Clarkson, expounding his doc- trine that the government is a political and not } a business machine, and that there should be rotation in office. If it is patriotism, love of The following bargains in Méi ings: Silk Gloves at 24c. a pair; All Silk Jersey Mitts at 2 best assortment of assortment of Buckles and Slides at 24c.

But you jump at once to the conclusion that if it's high priced—no matter who names {tthe article ts first clase—and vice verea—a low-priced Shirt must not be any good on general principles. Is that commou sense? Why don’t you buy your Shirts as you do your markotine? Trust us. If we don't live up to our representations then drop us. We'd rather sell yous 1.50 Shirt than a 48-cent oue.

Bribery of citizens to perform their duties as such and patriotism are incompatible. ——— The McCalla trial is evidently destined to take a prominent place among the celebrated cases in the records of curious courts martial. ‘These records are already bulky, and our own Lydecker’s case supplies one of the most inter- esting chapters. The McCalla court martial is not to be outdone by any of its predecessors. It finds the accused guilty of all the charges against him—such as cutting down @ sailor with his sword, triciug sailors to the “Jacob's Ladder,” gagging them, causing them to “toe a seam, and threatening to take what was left of their miserable lives—and then sentences him to three years suspension from rank and duty and tenderly recommends him to mercy. The colored republicans of the eighth con- gressional district of Virginia in convention in Alexandria yesterday neglected to indorse the administration, not so much on the ground that the administration is organically defective, as that it has failed to fully recognize the col- cored contingent in the apportionment of the emoluments of partisan patriotism, as Mr. Clarkson might say $$ Mr. Cleveland is apparently so strong with the Pennsylvania democracy that gubernatorial candidates find it to be necessary to disclaim that they are combining with anybody against the ex-President’s presidential possibil — + Rev.
