Georgia went Democratic by abou
$4,000 majority. There's "solld South
foT you.
Our attention has Just beer called to ;
dirty, lying "extra" issued by the DC
Pherson Independent, which we shal
answer in detail next week.
j. L. Bradley of Council Grove har
been nominated for State Senator from
the 10Th District. He was formerly ed
itor of a newspaper at Solomon City.
McCiintick promised to support NJ. d.
Sampson, the "shystcr," ETC., for State
Senator. They say he was never known
to keep promise, and now we know
il.
1t il stated that tho McClintick- Simp.
son ring proposes to mob NJ. ID. Sampson
if he gees to Mcpherson to make a
speech. M. ID. Sampson proposes to spedI
al Mcpherson. He has dealt with MODS
before.
Governor Osborn has appointed Hon.
p. |. Bonebralle, republican candidate
for State Auditor, to fill the uncxpired
term of ;hat office, made vacant by
Web. Wi:der's resignation. Good
enough
McCiintick has great fault TO find with
the Central Committee of the 36th Sem
atorial District. He questions their
right to call contention. We have a
letter in our possession in which be
urged the chairman OF the Central Com
mittee to call the convention by all
means. Shall it be shown, McClintick
That balderbash about Prescott, Mob
Ter and Sampson making a combination
has got into McChntick's small head.
The facts are tha: everybody in Saline
county knows that J. IL. Prescott and
NJ. ID. Sampson wero favorable to {. E.
Faulkner for representative, and that
the town delegates nearly all were for
Faulkner.
The latest election news indicates that
Ohio, Indiana aud West Virginia have
gone Republican by small majorities.
The papers received last evening an-
nounce that the Republicans gain nine
Congressman in Ohio and Indiana. The
Republicans, to have carried Indiana,
should have gained 10000 over the last
election, and the indications are that the
gains will overreach those figures.
During the last session of Congress
no private bills for the payment of
Southern war claims were presented to
the House, amounting 10 sl,5s2, 269.
Another bill asks the refanding the d.
rect taxes to the amount of 81, 492, ITO,
and still another for taxes paid on raw
cotton for 6s,O72, 1888. After these are |
waiting the Confederate bonds and pay
for emancipated slaves. The payment
of these claims is one part of the reform
which Mr.. Tilden and the Democratic.
Confederate party would carry out.

New CO,orS For Ladies'.

The intelligence comes to US from Par,
is that blue-upon red, green-upon-orange,
and plum opon-yellow will be popular
for street colors this season, and already
more than one navy-blue silk with cardi-
nal-red trimmings has flashed upon our
dazzled vision. The plain blacks and
soft neutral grays and quiet Quaker
browns are no longer en- reggie, and our
staid thoroughtares will soon resemble
the gay streets of some foreign military
town, where the scarlet and blue uni
forms give rurneresque coloring to
the landscape.
There Is something suggestive in this
new drawing of color, for 10 stranger
our streets have long held what resem-
bed procession of mourners. Black,
somber black, has been the regulation
dress, and 1t Is Il sorrowful fact that the
fashion originated in terrible necessity
During the late war, and long after il,
SO many women wore the robes of sad
remembrance that the small remnant OF
color left Jared upon the sight like an
inharmonious feature, until il finally
disappeared Those who did not wear
black for their dead put it on from sym
pathy ,economyd, or goo tastes blue
or green costume because disagrecable
incongruity.
Now, as the autumn hangs out her red
and yellow banners over the face of ma
ture, the warm rich tints come back
from their long oblivion, and insist upon
being recognized, We cannot assure
ourselves that royalty has set the fash
ion. The Queen of England has not
abated the severe black Of her widow
hood, and the beautiful Eugene has not
renewed her fashionable edicts. But
some touch Of nature or art, remotely
originated, has made the whole world
akin, and the great manufacturing heart
sends Us this hectic flush There are
yet undiscovered secrets of color to glad
den our eyes-tlnts more exquisite than
any sunset has revealed-dyes of which
the Persian has never dreamed, and the
long suppression of color will terminate
in 4 carnival of fashion which will out
rival the peacocis of Oriental courts, or
the rainbOws of iairyland. We will
welcome the CANDY stranger as harbin-
ger OF brighter times, tor it is certainly |
DIeasanter and better TO DO overwhelm !

NOT CONSISTENT.

Our venerable friend, Capt. b. j. F.
Hanna, has gone back on his "record of
thirty-two years" as "good, consistent,
straight forward, party man." and bolts
the regular Republican nomination for
State Senator. Before the primaries he
repeatedly stated that if NJ. ID. Sampson
was nominated he should hoist his name
in the Herald and support him. He
makes feeble pretense that he is in
doubt as to "whether Republican candi-
date for State Senator was nominated" at
Lindsborg. He was not in doubt as to
which was the regular nominee for Con-
gress at Abilene, and promptly hoisted
Col. Phillips name. Tho proceedings at
Lindsborg were precisely similar TO those
of the Abilene convention. And NJ. ID.
Sampson is as legally the nominee for
State Senator as Col. Phillips is the
nominee for Congress. We are sorry to
see the Captain actuated in this matter
by prejudice alone. 1t is now a locality
fight. Tho Advocate has taken its DO.
sition boldly on the question, and the
Herald should follow suit.

teri, but we Immediately send one in
his place whose moral ceiling has per-
ceptible shady tint to it, and then he
brays when we supposed he was going
TO roar. We carefully train and educate
our naval officers and military men, and
we ripen and perfect their capabilities
through long service and experience,
and keep hold of these excellent SER
wants through a just system oil promo
ton. This is exactly what we hope to
do with our civil service under Mr..
Hayes. [Applause.] We hope and ex-
pect to sever that service as utterly
from politics as lie the naval and mill
tary service, and We hope to make it as
respectabie,t too. We hope to make worth
and capacity the sole requirements of
the civil service, in the place Of the
amount Of party dirty work the candi-
date has done. By the time General
Hawley has finished his speech | think
you will know why we, in this matter,
put our trust in Hayes IN preference to
any other man. / am not going
to say anything about our candi-
dates for State officers, because you
know them, honor them, and will vote
for them, but General Hawley being
comparatively stranger [laughter], |
will say single word in commentator
of him, and it will furnish one OF the
many reasons why l am going to vote
for him for Congress. ask you to look
seriously and thoughtfully at just one
almost incredible fact. General Haw-
ley, in his official capacity as President
of the Centennial Commission, has done
one thing which you may not have heard
commented upon, and yet it is one of
the most astounding performances OF
this decade, an act almost impossible,
perhaps, to any other public officer in
this nation. General Hawley has taken
as high as Sl2l 900 gate money at the
Centennial in single day, [pause and
applause], and never stole "a cent of it.
[Great laughter and long-continued ap-
plause.

TuEyUJICIaL yRAy6LE.

The editor OF the Herald is making
war upon Judge Prescott. He devoted
a large portion of the spaca in the last
issue of his paper to him. We believe
be is punging into matter be will be
heartily sick of before he is through
with it. Most Of our citizens know
enough Of the character of Judge Pres
colt, and the facts about the railroad
bond matter, to be confident that
people should wait until they hear him
speak and make bis defence, which we
are assured will come in due time. To
answer and disprove charge like this
is under ordinary circumstances no
small thing-and the matters occurring
three years ago makes il all .be worse.
Bro. Hanna is taking very dlsreputable
course in peddling this statement, or
statements, Of q man like Abraham
Cutler, and which be says himself he
does not believe to be true. He has no
faith in these matters himself. If so, Why
has he waited, as Judge Prescott says
in his letter, until this time, and SAID
that be would support him. He is but
carrying out that threat Of his made
the night Of the primaries, that Judge
Prestott had beaten him and he had now
bat one fight that was to defeat, if
possible, Judge Prescott. There is re-
venge for you! Right or wrong! Fair
or foul JUICE Prescott is absent this
week and cannot, therefore, answer
specifically the Herald's articles and it
is nothing more than fair that we should
speak IN his behalf. Hanna says he has
no faith in Cutler and, substantially,
"but there are corroborating circumstan-
ces." Now if Hanna has the proof to
corroborate Cut'cr, why does be not
publish it and thereby prove Prescott
guilty and say Prescott must prove him
self innocent. Why reserve any proof in
this matter? Let it all be published
that the voters may read it.

1t occurs 10 us that since the grass
hoppers have infested and committed
ravages in six or seven states and ter.
ritories, with a iair prospect of spreading
still farther, like the Colorado potato
bug, over the country even TO the At.
lantic coast, that O conference Of west
ern states should be held with view of
applying a uniform system of warfare
against the seourse. We believe it is
within the wisdom and power of man,
to rid the country of grasshoppers. All
We want is uniform and universal con-
cert of action, based upon the most in

Jona D. Lee SENTENCED 10 be Shot

At Beaver, Utah, October 10. Judge
Foreman passed sentence upon John ID.
Lee, for participating in the Mountain
Meadow massacre, ninteen years ago.
In doing so, be called attention to the
atrocities of the crime, the inability here
tofore OF the authorities to procure evil
dence; that the conspiracy murder was
wide spread that Lee was finally OF
fered up as sacrifice to the popular in
dignatiOn, but that others equally guilty
might hereafter expect punishment. The
prisoner having the right, by the laws OF
the Territory, TO choose death by hang
ing: shooting or beheading, and having
chosen to be shot, was sentenced to be
shot January &c, 1877.

MuSIc-PeStalOzzlan Plans and Principles.

The following is one of the lessons
in music given by Mrs. E. NJ. Knapp, al
the Institute last week, and is published
for the benefit of teachers:
1st.-Activity is law Of childhood,
accustom the child to do; educate the
hand. (In vocal music cultivate the
voice.
2nd.-Cultivate the faulties in their
natural order. First form the mind,
then furnish it.
3d-Begin with tho sense. Never
tell child what he can find out him
self, unless it takes too long for him to
20 SO.
4th.-Reduce evory subject TO its ele-
ments. One difficulty at a time.
5th.-Record step by step; be thour.
ough. The means for information is
not what you can give but what the pa
! pill can receive.
6th.-Let every lesson have o point,
either immediate or remote.
7ih.-Develop the idea, then give the
term. Be sure the pupil has an idea OF
the whole thing before giving the term.
Sth.-Proceed from the known TO the
unknown; from the particular to the
general; from the abstract to the con
crete; from the simple to the more dit
icult.
In preparing lesson, four things
should be considered in the following
order:
1st, The Subject-The branch OF
knowledge to be considered. ours is
mus.c.)
End, The matter which the class is to
retain.
81, The point or particular thing to
be taught.
4th, The method, or how the lesson
should be given. This may be divided
into five points for consideration, viz
1st, How to develop the idea-By ad-
dressing the senses; by comparison of
objects, or tones; by experiment; by
reason.
End, How to illustratc-By speci-
mems by pictures by comparison, by
anecdote.
Sd, How to question-General, direct, |
indirect, suggestive.
4th, What shall we tell the pupil ? |
That which they cannot find out them
selves, or which would cause great
loss of valuable time in being discov-
cred.
5th, Kind of ummary-Eiliptical, as
The pencil is and; complete, IL
The pencil is long and round; oral
written.
To address the senses; the best way /
% give pupil an idea of musical
sound is to let him hear it; Of perfum-
Dry, to let him smell it.
For comparison; show the pupil a
object, with all Its parts CON-
,are thiswth an object in which one or
more of the parts are wanting. Com
ARE high and low tones to give an idea
If pitch. 4
In developing the idea by experiment I
We should use an object possessing the :
ualtIties TO be developed, and by actu-
| experiment bring out the idea. De
elop by reason by applying to the old
r pupils.
General questions are those which
lay be answered IN many ways. These
houId be used when We wish TO draw
ut all pupil knows on certain sub )
,ct.
Direct or leading questions should be g
sed when we wish the class TO admit ;.
ome point on which 10 base another a
uestlop. =
Suggestive questions are those. which .
onvev some hint or idea of the answer
zpccted. They may be used when
iere is real analogy or similarity of Z
Ieas.
First synthesis, then analysis.
