the medical and law schools In the common schools alone there are 10 000000 children or onefifth of the popu lation of the United States There is no country on the face of the J earth which can approximate suc- htestate of affairs There nvever has been auage in which these figure wereapproached Now that Cleveland can no longer be considered as a probable ti candidate for the Presidency we y
