SCENERY AND Music 1t casnot be
that Morton, of tic River Falls Repor-
ter, is destined to remain long with us.
Tie talent that he exhibits must result in
his being speedily called to an inpor-
tant position in connection with the me-
tropolitan Press.
In a late number Of his paper, speak
ing Of the return of Prof Pratt, who
has been engaged in teaching music, Mr..
Morton says
"Hope soon to see him engaged in
his professional calling 1T River Falls,
where the scenery is well adapted to as
sist in the development Of that superior
natural melody which IS perfected in or
der by the skiliful application of practi-
cal science"
When we read such sentences at that.
we havo no difficulty in believing that
the writer has had twenty wears expo
rience. We doubt if any one knows
the meaning of such phrase. but it is a
big thing, anyway We suppose that
next week Mr.. Morton will attribute the
superior quality of the Prairie Mills -four
to the fact that it is manufactured cat Ri
yer Falls, whore the scenery is well
adapted to assist in the development Of
that superior natural plant Of tho genus
Triticum, which is perfected in order by
the skillful application of a complicated
engine or machine for reducing the escu-
lent to fine particles"

New DEFINITION Mr.. MoRToN, OF
the River Falls Reporter, says
"Good schools may properly be es-
teemcd and patronizod as the arteries of
political rectitude and enlightened demo-
cratic and republican principles"
That is explicit We wonder the
similarity between schools and arteries
has not been thought of before. Ate
ries are divided into big ones and little
ones so are schools. Then think of
the great amount Of political rcctirude, +"
which must flow through all these ''ar-
teries" into the receptive minds of the
rising generation. What happy time
il will be when they supercede the pres
ent race Of unprincipled politicians
ScHooLs-Arteries of political recti
tude. We trust the attention Of our Co.
and State Superintendent may be called
to this idea. 1t may necessitate a new
ccGification Of the school law.
