Even many of those who were in tavor of technical ed-~ ucation were not apparently aware of the fact that the best system would be futile without sound elemeutarv education.” —Senator Kirchhoffer in discussing the Yuion railway bill, the other day threw some additional light on this monstrous dea!.

A “general war” seems the best prospect the despatches can hold out for Central America. This, per- haps, means a war of the generals, which would bea pretty good dcfinition of the kind of war prevalent in thoce happy climes. But the least that seems probable is the breaking up of the “Greater Repub- lic’ of Central America, its factors flying the call for a thundering “fiat” from Mr. Olney to still all these agitations.
