The Influence Of News
papers. -

To the Editor: -
A school-teacher who has en-
joyed the benefit and has
watched closely the influence
of newspapers upon the minds
Of families and others, states
as the result of her observation
that, without exception, mem
bers of families of both sexes
and all ages who have access to
newspapers at home, when com
pared with those who have not,
are:
1. Better readers, excellent
in pronunciation, and, conse-
quently, read more understand
ingly. :
2. They are better spoilers,
and define words with ease and
accuracy.
3. They obtain partial knowl-
edge of geography in almost
half the time it requires others,
as the newspaper has made
them familiar with the locations
of important places and ma
tons, their government and
transactions.
4. They are better gramma-
rians, having become familiar
with every variety of style in
the newspaper from common
place advertisements to the fin
ished and classical olation of
the statesman.
5. They write better compo-
sitions, using language contain
ing more power and beauty
than those less fayorably situa-
ted.
From these facts three inn
portant things can be deduced:
l. The responsibility of the
press in supplying literature
which shall be both healthful
IN tone and Understandings ex-
pressed.
E. The absolute necessity Of
personal supervision of a child's
reading by his parents.
3. Having once got good,
able paper, no matter what the
price, don't grudge it a hearty
support. 2.

THE Prize-Ring.

Considering how fully we are
being enlightened as to all the sa
lent points in the proposed "mill'
between Tom. Allen and Joe
Goss, it certainly will not be the
fault of the respectable dailies'
if the prize ring does not become
favored institution of this ''free
and independent country" 1t
pays, we suppose, to assist in bru.
talizing the public taste and e.
ven the "moral idea sheets that
want to re-organize society on a
pure and righteous basis are not
averse to turning a dirty penny by
Numbering 10 the Instincts of de-
prayity, These consistent con-
Germs make a prominent feature Of
the sayings and doings OF noted
"bruisers," and whenever a fight
comes off report the upper cuts, =
."weavings,'' "6bbings,'' "borings
to the ropes "claret tappings,''
&c, with professional gusto. Pro.
iessional black-legs might learn
something in the vernacular of
ruffianism from the prize fight lit
erature Of some of the leading
city dailies. Perhaps it is from
this source that Blaine, Morton,
Boutwell, and. Butler and the oth-
er peripatetic rowdies of the rev
dictionary party derive their in
SEPARATIONS. There is certainly a
striking resemblance in general
tore, and often in forms of ex.
p
preston, between the harapgues of
these gentry and the ring talk
of the "roughs" as furnished to
the dailies by their slang reporters.
1t is vain for the police force to
attempt the supprt ssion of prize
fights and their lelonious accom-.
paniments, while the DULLES Of
the arena and their hangers on
are thus encouraged, petted, and
glorifed by the ''organs of PUBLIC
opinion ) and it is equally vain to
hope for decency from the cham
pions of the political "ring" while
they are fed with this kind of men.

out for Giles county, where he

his return he told where he had

A Fine Country.
Some Of the Beauties of Life in
ArizOna-HOtter than Tennes-
see.

|
/ An Eastern gentleman en-.
gagged in mining in Arizona has
written to a friend, giving an
account of the difficulties un-
der which mining operations are
prosecuted in that Territory,
He says: un
'The amount of progress ]
make seems to me small, but
you can have no idea of the
difficulties which have to be
constantly met and overcome.
The labor here is very unrelia-
bic, and it is hard to get days
work for days pay, and there
is a strong feeling of jealousy
between the whites and Mexi-
cans which is hard to over
come. The weather here is hot
beyond belief. Never, [ think,
less than 90 in the shade, and
from that to 1909. There is no
lumber in the country, and all
the building has to be done with
, cottonwood poles, and hauled
five miles on jackasses to the
mine. In addition, | have had
to pack water five miles, as we
have had no rain, and the tanks
at the mine are exhausted. We
have now killed three rattle
snakes in the house, besides any
quantity of scorpions, &c. In
opening my trunk | was stung
in the finger by a scorpion. |
bound a poultice Of onions and
tobacco on the wound and
drank three full pints Of whis-
ky. 1t made me very drunk,
and | think killed the other poi
son, although my whole hand
and arm were numb for a day or
two. 1t is a pretty hard coun-
try, and three men have already
died of thirst near here. My
last letters were sent here from
the - Mine (only fourteen
miles distant) by an old Scotch
man. The letters did not ar
rive, and we searched for him
and found him dead only four
miles from camp. He was
stripped and his nails were worn
from his hands by scratching in
the sand for water. We have
sent ont twice and brought in
men who were crazy and blind
and speechless from thirst, The
sun is terribly hot, and the rocks
so hot that they blistered the
flesh if touched. You can hard
ly realize what a country it is,
nor how expensive it is, as well
as hard to work, to accomplish
much. Transportation, more
than anything else, is the great
bug-bear.

BIoody-Shirt Programme,
That Letter OfKiIpatrick's Proved
to be Genuine.

CINCINNATI, Aug. 26.-The
letter written by General Kill
patrick to Governor Hayes,
giving the true inwardness Of
the political situation in Indi-
ana, was pooh-poohed by the
Radical magnates as a forgery.
The New York Times, howev-
er, has a special from Columbus
admitting that the letter is gen
uine, but stolen from Kilpat-
rick's room.
Now that its authenticity is
established, Edmunds, who has
charge of the distribution of
Republican campaign literature,
says Fitzpatrick was indiscreet
first, in writing the letter,
and doubly soin allowing a copy
or the original to be exposed.
1t is construed by the Radi-
cal managers as an invitation
to keep the cry of the bloody
shirt alive. They are prepar-
ing to flood Indiana with Nor
toms last CORY exhortation, and
the western mails will take it
out by the thousand under his
Congressional frank.

This shows the value placed
upon Southern "outrages" by
the Republican demagOgues and
ofiice-seekers. Mr.. Brady is
now Assistant Postmaster-Gen-
eral. His facilities for circu-
lating intelligence of Southern
outrages are good, and we shall
expect him to give them great
prominence Etfrom this time un-
til after the election"
