The way to pet additional Industrie to back up the handsome beginrilnit Kanaa ritv haa already made Is to bring the resources wlthfti reach rlfcht to the spot where they can tie used.

In this rt-spect Kanas City Is the victim of a railroad system' that is entangled with interests which arc antagonistic to those of this city. That l.i the reaon that Kansas salt cannot find a market. It Is because of It that hundieds of thousands of bushels of Missouri fruit has rotted upon the ground this year. And the high pri"e of 1 Arkansas lumber in this market Is an other result of the samo misfortune. By and by, when ue once have the manufacturing Industries that belong here, the roads will have to come down, but they will not willingly Join with the people in their effort to bring the man ufacturing here. This Is a matter that the people should take hold of in earnest. Instead of bonuses to bring manufacturing, cheap raw material should be offered them. Instead of spending thousands ! of dollars In efforts to attract attention to Kansas City as a good distributing point, the money should bo spent in prospecting for the material for manu facturers to work with and in providing the means of getting It here at prices that will tempt the consumer. And the temptation should be made so strong that he cannot resist It The intelligent use of time and money in this way will bo worth a hundred times the same expenditure on glowing advertisements and windy speeches. emus iMtirrrr si:ak it. Mr. Bayartl surprises the Kngllsh peo ple by declaring that It is Incorrect to speak of protectlry. as our national pol ley. For lo, these mnny jears the En glish press and the English producers have been berating the "stupidity" of the American people in legislating for their own Interests Instead of that of the English manufacturer; they have drplored the bllndn. wi that persisted In retaining upon the statute books of this country laws which tried to build up the industries of this country by fur nishing a market for lomestio Int.ad of foreign products. l.en tho first Uem ocratio pr-sid"r,t in a quaiter of a cen- tury was l-astroi 1 I lied i 1 bv a ridictil' us and i it li The English press i ' i uture from the na- Yi n when the people 1 they had made and !' 1 mocratlo jiarty, as i ih- habit of doing, the ' ilbd their return to i 1 when the people f on- 1 i -f piece Of Inexcusjl If 1 i ho Democratic party inium was too cxtrav- i 'o.'lih press to bestow - mm.-" of the AmcrHan noie alMixlonlng their t na , - nv i o i rv th") I.ngll ih. ir I mltte lly to po j Oln' HI III oil P 'PI 11 i tlu It ' iv, e iren surprising, there- i i irllsh people to be told n is not the natlonnt " .It piv I boy of this country, especially when th- wires were still Incandescent w.th the news of the avuuheliti Itu def-at of the party of free trade, a ib feat that presages the final rout of 1896. If protection is not the national policy of the American people, tin ) seem to have Indicated a strong b-.iiiltig In that direction; they seem to hnvo given expression to their determination to make it their national policy. And If Mr. Bayard speaks the truth there is a party of very respectable elite In Kn gland itself that thinks tt ought so to be. Ills Lcudehlp, the Marquis of Halls bur)', thinks so. At least, he thinks it ought to be the national policy of the KnglUih people and he has come to this conclusion by observing ita workings in America, If protection builds up the industries of this country, while free trade is tearing down those of Ungland, His lyirdahlp Is both consistent and sensible in advocating the sam policy f ir his own country.

MANUAL THAIMM1, NOT TttAtin M'lltlllf.w. In vlw of the movement now tn prog ns to build a second high school and to Ineoriwrate Into Its curriculum ii eourm- In manual training, th public should from the start clearly discrimi nate iwtviern a manual training chool, and what are known a trade schools. To make thl distinction clflr wt can do no better than to quote from that jart of the report of the uperlntendent of the public schools of Hoton, which was written by the head master of the man ual trninlhg school of that city. In de fining the scope rtf the manual training school he says: "The Important dlHllnr lion between trnde school and manual training schools cannot be too strongly emphasized, for these two clas'e of In stitutions are llkly to be confued In the publle mind. It Is the function of a trade school to teach thoroughly any one of many trades as rapidly ns the stu dent's ability will ermlt. N'o Instruc tion Is riven that does not bear directly uptn the chosen trade. ' The trade school Is a pricels boon to bos In the vast army whose general educa tion must end with the grammar school, for they offer nn opportunity to secure quickly B place In the rank of skilled workmen. NVvcrth. less the functions of a trade school are strictly special; gen eral education does not fall within it scope. "The manual training school on the contrary teaches the elements of me chanic nrts primarily on account of their educational value just a arithmetic and geometry nre taught. IJut the manual dexterity and the knowledge of tool, material, drafting and methods of con struction acquired at (chool serve to advance the pupils many stages toward the mastery of any trade. Moreover, their elementary but systematic knowl edge of the entire field of mechanic arts gives them the same advantage In deal ing with the difficult problems of any trade that a liberal education gives to the student of law or medicine." There would certainly be objections made to the maintenance of schools for teaching special trades. But no friend of education could find a reasonable ob jection to a manual training .".chool where general culture in hand exercise is put on a par with general culture In puMy Intellectual exercise. Objections to such a school could only come from those fortunate mechanics who already have good positions, and who might en tertain a selfish fear lest education might endanger their present prestige. NTo one will object to general education except him who Is prfitlnc from the ignorance of his neighbors. Our schools are non-partisan and are for the masses, and the curriculum must be broadened and extended to meet the requirements of an industrial people. tiuiucan, iiurrm ami eiritur. President Tlernan and Mr. Huttlg. two Tiemocratio members of the upper house of tho common council, now claim that Mr. Curry, the Republican city clerk, is grossly Incompetent and in addition to this, in open session of the council the otner night, tney puoliciy denounced mm for his failure to keep an alleged promise to them to retain a Democratic clerk In Pis office. They say they acted upon that promise andl voted for Curry's con f. mat Ion. They had known him for a Png time. Tin so charges are probably purely political, but if tuie, then what Is the logic of the Bitiiatlor' PImpH thl: If Curry I In'-ompftcnt now, so he was v hen by their Sotes they confirmed him, and th knew It tl.n as well as they know it now. With this knowl'dge Tlernan and Huttlg vlolat.d their plain duty to the public If, as they say, they voted for the confirmation of Curry solely on his promise to retain the Demo cratic clerk. The price of their votes was his promise. He j.aid the prW In ndvatice hy the promise, thev delivered the goods In their ois, he fall' 1 to keep the promise. Ilei.re all thts virtu ous Indignation Deeply disgusted with nil such dis reputable dl kers .tin .ng tin ir sworn ser vants, the suff. rlr g public will rradlly reach the just conclusion tint It Is Infin itely worse for bwoiii officers to sell their votes for a. promise made by one not yet an offleei, than it Is for the latter to fall to keep that promise after he Is sworn In espei lully a.s the promise was a bud one. The Demociatic load of grief Is o h'avv since the r '-ont elec. lions that it is like cruelty to animals to remind th. m of any of their local shortcomings, but It would be well tf M.;KW!.

The uniforms of tho campaign clubs would le red coats, Instead uf linen duller, with oanes made out of muskets nd badges cast from cannons, fastened to the lapel with miniature lions' tails. Only military bands would furnish the music fur that campaign, and the orators would ride from place to place In artillery carriuiiett, with the caissons full of canteens. Hverybody nould use inlulatur bayonets for tooth picks and there would b no talk but of war and luiiiots of war, blood uud plenty of It. That would be a campaign as Is a campaign.

He had several friends who were roisterers like himself, and their favorite sport was robhing a . ertnm old fellows apple orch ard. The old man W-as a pretty savage ol 1 cadger, who hud threatened to shoot th first peron he caught stealing from his orchard. Accordingly the young fellows 'f't a sort of trap for him. Thev got a Ciinese lantern and fastened n long string to It. Before they lit it they hung It over a convenient limb In the orchard and ran the string across the place and a lane, Into a pleee of woods. Then they got some poke berries and stained the f.nre rails with thera. The arrant,emnt was that when the old man shot at the lighted lantern, one of the party was to give a loud stream and ail were to run. Afr-r they had tilled their pockets with all the apples they caul 1, they put their plan Into practice. The lantern was lighted and Jerked about in the tree. Presently the dogs began to bark, ard out the old man sallied with his shot gun. He did not stop a minute, but blaze I away at the light with both barrels. One of the young fellows gerrumed as if he had ben hit and all ran. W 11, the old filow IKd preelpately into the house, and. it turned out, never left It again.
