It is certainly a most unfortunate con
dition of affairs when the rigtit of state
hood is to be made to depend upon the
political complexion of tho voters. It
was certainly something never intended
by the founders of the American govern
ment. The idea ot excluding people
from all the privileges oi American citi-
senship, on account of the political
views is an anomaly, but it seem almost
idle to protest against it. Even a thor
oughly respectable journal like the New
Orleans Times-Democrat, which reflects
the best sentiments ol its party, accedes
to partisan pressure on the subject, and
can see no other way than to admit ter-
ritorien by pairs. It says: ‘‘As lor these
four territories mentioned, they will by
1888 be all fully entitled to statehood.
At the present rate of progress and in.
crease ot population Dakota will have
500,000 jieople; Washington, 250,000;
New Mexico, 160,000, ami Montana 120,-
000, all more than the state of Nevada,
and all but one ahead ot Delaware. As
two of these territories are democratic
and two republican, it will make no dif
ference in the standing of the two par
ties in the senate, and the bill will not,
therefore, arouso much political feel
ing."
The Vienna correspondent of the New
York Telegraph says: The prospect for
the next twelve months islivelv enough.
The year just beginning may well see
the collapse of one, at least, of the great
powers, and of ono or two minor states.
The elements of disintegration are not
confined to Turkey, and it is a mistake to
suppose that in case of war Bulgaria is
the only small country whose existence
would be imperiled. In Vienna there is
considerable anxiety for the immediate
future.
Everybody says the new year
opens under unpleasant auspices. A
somewhat reassuring item of intelligence
comes, however, from Cracow. Dsienik
Polski hears from St. Petersburg that
during a recent ministerial council the
czar declared he would have no war,
and actually shook his fist at one of the
ministers who had manifested bellicose
views. I am inclined to believe there is
some foundation for this story.
The
czar has lately told different members
of his entourage he wished to avoid war.
The asjieet of affairs on the Austro-Rus-
nia frontier is threatening enough, but it
is a good deal worse on the borders of
France and Germany.
The papers in the east are now dis-
cusssing indstrial education in the pub
lic schools in a way which shows that
they have a conscientious interest in
what they advocate.
It has taken the
country a long time to realize the neces
sity of public industrial training, but we
think the necessity’ of this kind of edu
cation is now well and universally un
derstood. Careful elementary training
in mechanical ami manual occupations
lias been neglected to the detriment of
the average character of the work now
done in carpentry and like employments.
Book education by itself is not sufficient
to insure the average graduate of our
public schools a living. Practice and
theory must walk hand in hand to ob
tain the best results, and the adoption
of industrial courses in the public schools
will bring this about.

A ropresontative of the United Press
interviewed Secretary Lamar the other
day as to Ills coming marriage.
Lamar
said: ‘You are at liberty to announce
that there exists an engagement between
Mrs. Holt and myself, but I cannot say
when the marriage will take place: it
may be in the spring or during the win
ter.” No definite date having been
named for Lamar’s return to Washing
toil lends point to the supposition that
tho marriage w 11 take place within a
few days.
