NEW OUTLINE MAPS.

Very many of the school districts Of the
county have purchased Camps Maps this
summer and we think the money thus
expended has been we'll appropriated for
the maps are certainly the best of the
kind we ever saw. It now remains with
the teachers to use these maps. 1t is a
fact that there are maps in some of the
school houses in the country which are
not used enough to keep them free from
dust. We would ulge upon teachers the
necessity of taking good care ofthe maps
but by this we do not mean that they shall
be hung SO high upon the wall that they
cannot be reached without sending to the
neishbors for a ladder. These maps
were not intended for show, only, though
they are gems to look at, but for study,
and they should he where the teacher and
class can reach than with ease.
1t is not necessary that they be spread
over the walls of the whole room, bat
may be hung one above the other where
the teacher can select the one she wishes
for the recitation, and bang it before the
class on nails placed expressly for that
purpose, and no recitation in geography
should be conducted without calling into
help the maps. The teachers may expect
some instruction, at the fall institute, in
the use of the globe and outline maps.

The DEBTOR AND CREDTToR.-The Boston men
and the Wall street men who "roll and wnller in
their wealth." as Alderman Madden would say,
went down to Washington with their hats III
their baud-boxes aud had big talk with the
President. These Boston and Wall street men
have mortgages for hundreds of millions of dol
lars on the hOmesteads and farms and business
houses of the Western people. The money
loaned by these Boston men and Wall street men
to the people of the West consisted of what the
President calls "irredeemable currency" These
mortgages and bonds will be falling due within
the next five or ten years. and the Boston men
and the Wall street men are unwilling To take
anything but gold in payment for these mortga-
ges and bonds, and President Grant saws they
are right in their demand. II is not strange that
the western mind takes different view of the
subject.-St. Louis Democrat

Harvey wants the land Office removed from

wants it located at Hays city. Perhaps if those
gentlemen wonld consult the interests of their
constituents of the northwest land district, they
might discover the fact that Kirwin is more cen
