What should be taught in our public schools forms a matter of great interest to every citizen, and a question, too, tha is receiving a great deal of discussion at present. It is acknowledged by all who have thoroughly investigated the matter, that the prent curriculum of study lacks the elements that it should possess to. w e, the practical , training for busitests occupations. Or at least that tbJ system could be so amended ai to achieye greater results in t'rfSStion than are now realised. The. Forum jp'opOfiins another ar- ' tide upoalthis subject, in which the jyiiter Ws directly to the gblnt. He,ys in one place that jthe schoo' ought also to give the aveiftErpiipil a little arithmetic and a little geography. As for geography, it might ajmost be said the less the better. It is con venient and necessary to know something about one's own coun try; also to know that the earth is round, and to have some general idea of countries abroad. As for j geographical details, it is sheer waste of time to learn them. If one-quarter ot the time that is the time that tment in learning minutue about j already spoken of for the various inaccessible regions and outland- j county offices, it is certain an old ish towns were employed judi- j time, upright ticket of sober, solid cioasly, the child would have just j men be placed in the field. as practical a kuowledge ot the world, and would have three - quarters of his time left to put to more profitable uses. The criti - . , . -u ; cism to be passed on arithmetic is, that while it disciplines tne pupil's mind, it is usually taught in such a way that it has to be all learned over again before it is available for practical uses. A boy will know now to "do sums" in his book, but that is no indication that ho could take the first step or make the first figure toward solving the same problem in a store or an office. The instruction he has re ceived has lacking the conpling pin that binds the school-room and practical life into one train. Undoub edly there is truth and grounds for these remarks and they should be acted upon. On the point of industrial education, the same article says: "The ground, however, on which indus trial education is more cenerallv advocated is its economic ad van- tages and the practical preparation j it affords for tions of adult the actual life. This is dis cussed so much at preseut, and is j c ?i.t.1l?fnMf on.wi.on.ld that I a lengthened statement of it here j would be out of place. It will I sufiice to say that there is work enough in the world for the men .who know how to do it. The uien who are always wanting' a job, aie the men who could not do it if they had it. School days are the time for boys and girls to be ac quiring the elements of industrial knowledge. We must steadily re member how the large majority of them will, half a dozen years hence, be situated. These matters must be judged from their circum stances, not ours. Life cannot be with them primarily a matter of j culture, out a matter ui ureau, and a matter of having sense and skill to earn it ; and the school room is the place to acquire the alphabet of that skill. Of 2,100 inmates of a certain prison, ninety-five per cent, had learned no trade. Industrial ignorance is the mother of idleness, the grand mother of destitution, and the great-grandmother of socialism and nihilistic discontent. So far as the battle of life is concerned, to train children's ideas without training their fingers is like putting a regiment through musket -drill : it is healthy discipline and affords pleasant dress-parade, but will avail little before the enemy unless with all their other acquisitions, they have learned to shoot." It is sometliitig of a , curiosity to examine some of the old platform planks and observe the change of base, entirely without grounds under any plea of change of cir cumstances, that have grown into the present formulation of party behests. For instance, a Califor nia paper digs up this plank in the democratic platform of that state in 18S67 relative to the tariiJ' ques tion : "Resolved, That the present tariff on wool, prepared by a re publican commission, appointed by a republican president, is an unjust discrimination against a great industry; and we denounce the same and demand a restoration of the tariff of-1367." Now, in stead of returning to the 1867 tariff, which was considerably higher than the present tariff, the democratic position is to place wool on the free list, and Congress man Biggs, of California, who was positively pledged against any re duction of the tariff on wool, says he will vote to place it on the free list if his party leaders say so. There is one method of reducing the surplus in the treasury that would not only be highly success ful and meritorious, but would also give satisfaction to every patriotic citizen of the country, no matter what his previous condition of party affiliation might have been, and that is a more thorough and systematic reduction of the public debt, by buying in and can celling the government bonds, ir respective of their present holdings or influence upon individuals, banks or corporations. The Alta says that the telegraph brings the news that the sarcopha gus containing the body of Alex- j ander the Great has been discovered at Saida, a Syrian town on' the Mediterranean sea. Before many weeks no dime museum in the United States will be complete without the only original mummy of the Great Alexander as one of its leading attractions. By reference to the report of the meeting of the republican county central committee published this morning it will be seen that the republicans have gone quieily about the work of the coming cam- i paign Judging from the namec- j 1 Ji --ivei.
