ed that If asked In solve tlic probl .He Tonltl not kuoiv ivbat to do. P baps It Is Just ns well, and the problem can be left to settle Itself. P enu. who know their young folks better than any school officer can. are tl beat solvers of this difficult problem. That old theory of "three rV hns been scoffed at. but tar Its day It fitted the problem of education better perhaps than some of the methods we have been hanking upon In tills conn try. If the boys and girls mastered reading, writing and arithmetic, they would make useful men and women nr the p’ow. the anvil, the wnshtub anf. the dairy. They were born to their “life work.” That form of education \ which we have tried to populifrtae hen la of the mind and npt the band. Tech Dies I education and manual training may and probably will serve In some communities and be paid for by the public. At preaent the enseutlnl thing la to train the young mind nod fit the boya and girls for general usefulness In Ufe. When they start In at wage earning apprenticeship there will be Uttie time or Inclination to follow np lessons. Employers of wage earners ask that beginners slgiU have their faculties of observation, attention and ap^ plication developed. As planned ai present the schools can do that with nay bat a hopeless pupil. An attempt by Instructors to peer Into and prepare for Individual futures would Id moil cases be a waste of time and might be worse than that. Parents do not tbemaelves venture thus far. hut as a rult they do know what they wish theb children to learn at school. Pupils taking the higher branches are usually the most tractable for school officers to handle, but that should not serve as as excuse for neglecting the ordinary crowd whose educational needs are elementary and who will soon be called to the shop, tbe farm and the kitchen

to find their life work.

“Poor” OultU. It Is tbe fashion among people who street to be practical above everything else to speak of the “poor" author, poet and artist with feelings of contempt. somewhat mingled with pity. Poi erty Is popularly believed to be the lot of the dreamer of dreams. While now and then one may get riches as well as fame by skill with the per tbe brush, these lucky Individuals i counted tbe exceptions which prove tbe rule. The popular view is not far sf the way. and yet tbe real reason of nnlhrift In artists Is oflen overlooked. Onids made money with her pen and yet became poor to the verge of starvation. Uad she been less successful a romancer she might have been practical and thrifty too. But in order to be a romancer and dream dreams which will Interest other people the artist must _cul loose from tbe practical J>ven one so self centered as Harriet .Beecher Stowe might be supposed to hare been made tbe very mistake which brought Oulda to the dregs. Wheu > _ber royalties were big thought the run would last and launched out .In her style of living accordingly. It was then. too. in' a period at exuberance that she wrote some of her very best fiction, beat from a literary point of criticism. Thlw eeemr t contrary to a notion sometimes held that tbe writer does beet when pushed hy necessity. But poverty Is a stern driver, and the real artistic tempera■eent wants to be fancy free. When Onlda was most Imprudent and going the pace toward poverty she was undoubtedly meet fascinating to her Mg

Drilling the Ancients. Disciplined armies are to be trace* In the records of all the great nations of antiquity, through Rome. Greece. Perris, Assyria and Egypt. The Egyptian Pharaoh. Ramesen II.. about 1400 B. Cm Is credited with tbe posseaslou of the- first -disciplined army. Early In life his military experiences with the Arabians taught him tbe necessity of baling troops drilled In tbe a war. He established a warrior class, which became tbe nurlens of an army numbering over 100.0(10 men. Including Infantry, cavalry and war chariots. With this army hh Is aald to have made conquests In Asia from tbe Gouges to tbe Caspian, and It seems certain that at any rate It was be who gars Egypt Itr earliest military organization and es'oWished the first regularly disciplined army known to history.

At the preeent time the motor vehicle laws are administered In Uon with the office of the secretary °f

late.

Tbe use of these machines Is becoming so general the ntimber of them Is ao great (the 11 censes exceeding 23.000) and tbe revenue under a changed license system would be ao la-.-ge that this ahonld be a department by Itself. The enforcement of the automobile laws is demanded by the traveling public. A very large percentage of antomoliBe drivers are careful itoi there are some who are not If tbe present automobile law Is too stringent It should be amended. A speed of twenty miles an boor In many places Is not excessive—In fact. It may be said to be quite moderate wlthoi misstating tbe truth—while in. other places a speed of twelve miles an hour ■ore rapid than these machines should he permitted to go. Bat wtutver the law may be. It ahonld be « arced. There sbsold be sufficient officials the department of motor vehicles that It Is enforced, and tbe penalty for the violation of the law should be lore severe. The returns from this department on he basis of an Increased license foe would give It as large a revet derived from any other department of the state, and 1 should not be surprised If the revenue within a year < aonable horsepower license fee would exceed $300,000. The expense of ducting this department probably would reach C per cent of the .ai: revenue received, anil Its efficiency under a c-immW.-doner could be made cry much greater than at pri New Jersey hns tbe flneat roads of any state In the Union and. In proiwrto her territory, more than any other state. We must do everything IncreaKe the number of miles these admirable public highways and maintain them after they -nre constructed. and thla department, projierly managed, will ba a most efficient aid In securing tbe revenue by which the stgle rood commissioner can maintain these roads In good repair. ~'D»p«rtmsnt of Public Reports. The state publishes a mass of officlnl 'reports at a large expense each year. Tbe cost of these publications -would be cut down many thousand dollars rear If they were Intefligentiy edited. with a view to printing only such matter as would add to the useful knowledge of the public. ■>1 rpwmnend that a law be enacted creafcg a "department of public reports," consisting of a single commixsloner who shall control all state publications subject to tbe approval of the governor. Dapartment of Accounts. The state needs an accountant department of the most efflcieujfklnd. There should be a uniform system of bookkeeping In all the state departments and Institutions, and all counts should be thoroughly examlnnd and audited. The fee system has beet? abolished In the state, and yet at no time has there been an audit or verification of any of tbe reports of county or state officials, so far as I know, by ally patent accountant to see that .tbe statsfees returned are correct or that all the Judicial or other feas to which the state Is entitled bare been actually Collected. V This can only be done by an examination by competent accountants of the books and papers In tbe offices of all officials coHectihg fees. In addition to this, all tbe state insti tut I on* should be subject to quarterly, certainly semiannual examinations aa to their financial affairs. It. la tbe state s money they expend. For what

Ined and a close watch kept by competent examiners, with reports to tbe governor of any expenditure not footid to be wltbtn tbe law. In addition to tala, i any state Institution or

for tbe same are sent to the board of audit, that check and counter check may be kept upon all

County Eearde For tt* Equallntlea of

By an act approved on the Mth day of April. IBOti. county board* for the equalisation of taxes were created. “ -«*** were <**hed W4«h cow llower oyer Jbc property of the clOro In resi»ct to Its valuation for taxation ami over (hr review of nsaeasmahta made by local assessor* The board to each county consists of three members. They are paid by the Slate, and their annual cost to tba state la fill.'AM. besides the expense to tbe counties. Bueli an ax pensive piece of governmental machinery ahonld only be maintained If results beneficial to the state the dtlaen flow from It. For myf 1 have been unable to discern any advantage resulting to the state or tire people from there boards. Tbe ostensible purpose for the creation of these board* was to procure the equalisation of valuer. If this were the real reason, then the two yesr* they hare been established Is a long enough accomplish this end. and their further existence la unnecessary. In any view of the care tbe county boards at taxation. If they ever had a useful purpose, hnv* now served that purpose ami shouU be alxiUshed and return lie bad not holy to the local assessment of property, hut to the review of assessment* against the proiierty of Individual* by local board* of apimil lu case* of taxation. I‘revision, however, should he made for some board or body with power to equalize by simple methods of procedure and at small expeuse valuation* between ninntdpalltles for the apiiortlonnieut of county taxes. l>robalily this can tsdone through the state board of equalization of taxes. In this connection and aa incidental to the discussion of tbe equalization of tbe value of tbe railway and hidlildiwl property I suggest. In view of the claim frequently made that railway property lu this state Is assessed shove rue value and the counter •vmte'iand lielief of many that II Is as Beared below Its true value, that an tlmrity be given to ap|K<lnt two competent and eminent experts In tinvaluation of siu-h property'to make an Inventory and appraisal of all tbe fixed railway proiierty In this state for the Information of the state 1-oard of n« tbe state board of taxation, the legislature and tbe people. Blnce estnli llshlng our present method of taxation of railway property In 1884 no sucb valuation has been made. If the property of the railroad com panics Is taxed In excess of what It ■boobl lie. It is wrong and sbonld be righted. If It la not so taxed, the people are- entitled to know the factNothing la wanted bat that which Is ist and right. C—sSHutlonal Amendments. Various subjects of amendment of tbe constitution of the state bare been before the people of the state for some ime. One U an amendment that will permit of the neTiaratlon of munlcl|ial from stale and national elections. This, In my view. Is an exceedingly popular snggestlon. and there is an almost universal demand for such sepnra Uon of the mnnlclpal CnuD Ike Watc and national elections, and until a stitnttonal amendment can be adopted provision sbonld be made by which tbe tickets voted at an election should lie separate, so that tbe municipal ticket and the state or national ticket sbonld be voted In different boxes. The cost nf two elections a year Ftnld lie avoided if posslb difficult now to get people to vote al election, and tbe experiment of haring two elections In tbe same year, was tbe old custom, should tried ngatn. Until a constitutional amendment shall be adopted providing for these elections In alternate years I suggest that a statute be enacted pro siding for two boxes and two tickets at the fall election, separating tbe ns tlonal and state from tbe muntcipai and county officials to lie voted for at such election or tbe Massachusetts bal

lot

Another suggested amendment to tin constitution relates to the creation of assembly districts. The legislature last year passed ai mendment providing for this. In the more populous counties there eems to be a general demand In favor f assembly districts, and upon principle It seem* to me to be right. In connection with this proposition : seems to me to be worthy of consideration whether It would not he snhmlt to the people of the state at tbe same time an amendment to Increase the possible limit of semblymen. which Is now fixed by tbe constitution at alxty, to not exceeding 100 members. In tbe same way I suggest whether the time for submitting sn amendment to the people sbonld not be reduced from once In five ytars to once In three years and whether the voting upon such amendment should not be changed so that the vote should be hkd at a general election, where the people take sufficient Interest to vole, rather than at a special election, aa ai preaent required. Court Reorganisation. For yean the snbject of the reorganisation of tbe courts has been under consideration.

The report at the last commission Iow before the legislator* for action There would seem to tie no good reason for tbe refusal to submit to Unpeople for their approval definite amendments looking to tbe simplification of our Judicial system.
