The idea of Mexicanizing this gov ernment' by ; giving tne President a third term, .is to step: toward keeping him in office '; permanently, by going through the farce of holding an election every four years, as the Mexican do with Diaz, nas been thrown .down hard enough to have been killed every time Mfc it has reared ita head m this country, but it .isn't dead. It is now being nursed; by Senator Chauncey Depew, who belongs to the class which would welcome a permanent ruler of the country, "whether called rresiaent or by. any other title, provided he. held the right view. That class thinks Mr. McKinley holds the right view, for them. That accounts forMr, Depew's nnouncemenr of & third term McKin- t T - Mr. Depew may claim 11 n huh. I " a his talk merely represented his own ODinion. wnicn is true as far as it I but it also represented an under- standing with a -number ol men wno sometime ago determined ; 10 test puD- tic opinion on the the third" term idea I Qljwun me iiucuiiuu n vucic - uwi much kicking, to start an organizeu movement to nominate Mr. McKinley again.- Toose men are now siuayii.g the press comments upon Mr. Depew s I third term interview, few ot wnat are known as the practical politicians in the republican party are in this third term .-. scheme, its success wousa mean tne retention 01 too many men . . r . v I already in office, to please them; but practical politicians. never put tneir heads against stone . walls, and if a DtrAnir Mnt sinn fit, tmrri term SPntl- b;- worked np ,hey wiU foi jow thecrowd. Someof Mr. McKialey's friends say the talk of a third term is very disagreeable tobim,but that state- ment is not a reasonaDie one, since ne ing ,that he would not accept another nomination. So long ;as he fails to make that announcement, the public naturally takes it for granted that he is not opposed. , That Mr. Charles G. Dawes, Comp-I troller of the .Treasury, who poses as a cl ; Phonal friend of Mr;McKinley, snould be neglecting official duties to pUshalonghiscandidacy,fortheseatnow held by Senator Billyi Mason, of held by. Senator "Billy" Mason, of Ills., is regarded in. Washington as in - dicatiDg that Mason made a mistake when he declared that Mr. McKmley would follow a hands-eff policy in the f Senatorial fight. ' The friends of Dawes openly elairn tht he has the full and I cordial support of the administration and that at the proper time v that fact I will be made clear to the republican vpters of the state. .If they are right, the country can look fot some lively speeches from Mason on the flior of the Senate; jn which he will do some more blushing tor the administration. Ma son does not rank high as a statesman in the Senate, but as a rough and turn. ble fighter he is an antagonist that knows how to make things howl, as he has shown upon several notable occa Hons. -. . ; - If Senator Pntchard, of N. C, did not land what he went to the White House after a day or two ago, it wasn't because he didn't jolly along one of Mr McKinley 's pet ideas." The day before he called on Mr. McKinley, Senator Fritchard , got himself inter viewed, and predicted that both North and South Carolina would soon be re publican. Mr. McKinley may have taken that prediction seriously since he is known to have- swallowed others equally as wild about the South, but everybody else regarded it as humor. ous. - -' ? ' Republican Representatives who have spoken.- favorably of Representative Babcock's bill to repeal the tariff on all products of the "Morgan steel trust, have received hints from the party lead ers to go slow in supporting that bill, if they wish to avoid trouble and to be again nominated, and they are get. ting more than hints from the Protec live Tariff League, and the Home i Market Club, both of which are fight ing Babcock in every way they know how. - Members of the Pennsylvania delegation, appear to be taking turns In coming to Washington and giving the Babcock idea a side swipe through newsnaner interview .' ' r - J ine uDan game isn i oeing played with Rules laid down by Secretary Root. Instead, the Cubans have made a lot of new rules of their own. .

Wttoq has been able to give at any time. It has come from, private sour. cesv ssjq (as served to mate some tbmgs plain that were somewhat mud dled. It is not believed that the Cubans expect, to accomplish anything at pres ent by ; declining to accept the Piatt amendment', as they know that the ad ministration could not, if it wished to, 1 change an Act of Congress," but their game.is believed to be to leave the mat ter open until Congress meets and then appeal to Congress' for modification.')

Mr. Editor: --There was an article in last week's issue of your paper from "Communicated'.' in regard to a phase of the recently adopted School Law, the logic of which was not very clear to me. . The writer of this article, to hich I refer, seemed to be- considera bly distressed on account of what he is pleased to terra the danger to our pb- schools I think that the gentle derive unlimited satisfac man wouid tion from knowing that the danger which he thinks threatens the schools, evidently exists only in his. imagina tion, and in order to convince him that such is the case, 1 feel it to be rny duty to call his. attention to some facts which, possibly, have escaped his no' tice. -. .V..V ''--V v": The danger which the gentleman thinks threatens our public schools is, that in accordance with the School Law tiassed bv the - last Legislature m9v;na it nntinnal with the Coantv Board tof Education to appoint one School Committee for each- Township, or t(j aDDoint a committee for. .each school district, the County Board will proDaDiy appoint oniy commmees lor lne townsh'ps. thereby abolishing the district committees. This course, the ge - jtieman thinks, will endanger the public schools. I did not get a Clear ,deuTrora the article of wherein the daneer lies." nor did I see any reasons g,ven to show that there was danger of sucn tn alarmme catastrophe. . - ' " . TVi opmUman that the nrn- posed change would take away from the community the right which it has heretofore had to select teachers of its own choice, but he fails signally to show whv it would do so, as also he failed to show that the community had ever had a right so select its teachers, or having that right had exercised it. He also says that the'plan is un-dem- ocratic. How would he like to nave the -people select their teachers, locate their school-houses, and determine the teachers' salary by ballot. .There k, probably such a thing as "too much democracy. He also says that it would rob the people of self govern ment, but fails to say who, if not the people themselveswill be benefitted by the robbery. He says again that such a- plan would be a reflection . on the best citizenship of the county. the best citizenship of the county. But this is absurdly ridiculous, for does any one think that it is a reflection on man not to hold the highly important office of District School Committee man? Really, it is more of a re flee tion; CO the township committee to pre. jsume that they are so ignorant orprej udiced as to be unable to manage the schools intelligently without the aid of sub - committees. Undoubtedly the plan of abolishing the ' district committees which - my friend so vehemently opposes would be the best thingt that could be done nn der the circumstances. It is a fact fully recognized by all who have ob- served the operation of. the public school system that ' the District Com mittee is an entirely useless append age, a kind ot htm wheel which rattier hinders than helps. It is admitted by the leading educators of the State that the public school system would be sim- Plified and consequently made more effective by abolishing them. To. this end the Legislature made' provision by leaving with the County Board the op tion of adopting either plan. ' So, since we have an opportunity of getting them out, we ought to take advantage of it. In every reform we meet .'with opposi tion. But still we should not alio platitudes and exploded theories, how ever earnestly and conscientiously at tered, to influence us when the public good is. at stake. The gentleman,' in concluding his article, made a - very pathetic appear to the County Board of Education not to pass so unpopular measure as this ' would - be, without earnestly reflecting on it. Doubtless they would do this without his advice. but the people do not fear but that they will do what is best. The gen tlemen comprising the Board are, suppose, fully informed m regard to the matter, better so than many who would advise ' them about their duty and since this is so, and knowing as we do their conservatism, I think that we may , ful,5,Lasiret! that notrhiD8 detrimental to the best interests of our public schools will be done or even at- tempted by them. - "Fair Play. : .- o ,0TOnZA.

Lee was calleti to Washington and ordered to crush the riot known as the "John Brown War." oho Brown had gained no'triety . in Kansas in the slavery troubles, cane to Virginia to excite an insurrection among the slaves, hoping to get aki which had been promised him from Canada. His party consisted ol eigh teen white merr.and five teg roes They" seized'-the amory at Harper's erry and- brought great confusion on the town and coantrr. Hivine taken several prominent citizenj pris oners, they retired to an engine house. Col. L?e surrounded the house and sent Lieut. Stuart to demand a surreo der, promising to protect the insur gents from violence and aecure therp a trial accord in z to law. Brown re. fused, asking to be permuted to march unmolested to the second toll Kate where he would free his prisoners and either make his escape or fwht the trooj. He athrmed " also that be 1 ,' would kill his prisoners as soon as at tacked by the troops - Lieuu. S turt, having, remonstrated with Brown to DO effect, raised his hand as a signal, and the house was captured, the prisoners freed and the insurgents captured, sev eral of whom were wounded. CoL Lee, by orders from-the War Depart ment, turned his prisoners over to the District Attorney for the District of Columbia.' Brown was found guilty of treason and banged. - Col. Lee was then sent to Texas where he remained till the outbreak: of the war. The crisis bad come. Many Southern men who were at that time iviog in the North, or who were bok ing government oraces, came home to take part in the strueete. To CoL Lee this was exceedingly painful. "Fur more than a quarter of a century, he had served' with distinction In the Fed eral army, in which, in the opinion ol both the country and the army, be held only,' the second position." All expected him to succeed Gen. Scott. Blair says that the highest honors awaited him; that the President of the United States sent his Cabinet to offer him the command of the army, and Gen. Scott used' all bis influence o induce him to remain. Gen. Scott used all his Influence to induce him to remain. Gen. Scott placed a high es. timate on the military ability of CoL Lee. On one occasion he said, Lee is the greatest military genius in America." President Lincoln summoned CoL Lee to Washington on the i8ih of April 1861. At that time he tendered bis resignation and bade farewell to Gen. Scott, who, being much affected said: "Lee, yon have made the great est mistake of your life; but I feared it would be so." Col. Lee's resignation is as follows: " ' '. Arlington, Va., April so, 186 1 "Ueniral: Sinct my interview with yon on the i8ih bst.. I have felt that fought not retain my commission in the army.
