Bacon Won’t Come Home.

in Washington throughout the
present ee—ion of congress,
ing it b - duty to his state and his
party that he should not he

As tme of (in niost

and the work of congress from now

A Much Needed Reform.
St fit Soho (.cm in ioin‘r
CM won I like to inti Rhice
some reforms, very radical re¬
forms, in the public sc bool sy„
t<‘rn ' of the State, lie ^ !
t •zr at if lie wore given ubsolut
control of the schools for ton
yonrs ] would bring about
changes that would be absolutely
startling.
We have no doubt that, he is
right. A system of public school
education could be devised that
would be ever m much more ben¬
eficial than the one in use. Mr.
Glenn's idea is that the system or
education should be of a charac¬
ter to make the pupils do a great
deal of thinking. Now they are
tuughl to memorize hundreds of
tilings which arc of no
benefit to them. The memory is
cultivated, but the reasoning pow¬
er is not, to the extent il should
be. If, u! the. very beginning of
their care, rs in tho schools, child¬
ren wor, required to do more
reasoning and less memorizing
(hey w uh! be far better equipped
for life’s duties when they left
vM m,, I than they are. It would
be a bereuleon task, however, to
bring about , the , reform to which , ,
Air. Glenn called attention in his
spot oh at the banquet of the Hi-
Bern ion Society on Monday.—
