THE State School Fund Of Kansas
comes principally from two sources.
First, the general government pays over
to the State five per cent. of the pro-
ceeds of all government land sold in the
State, and the next, comes from the
sales of the 10th and Both sections of
land in every township, set apart by the
organic act, for school purposes. A
small amount in addition, also accrues
from fines, the sale of estrays, etc. From
a recent number Of the Topeka Common
Dealth, we learn that the fund is now in.
vested as follows:
In Kansas State Bonds ....-...... S607 ,925. 90
Lawrence City bonds. ............-.... I0J,0U-O0
United States bonds ....---..--.... lo'OU W
school district bonds ............... 51S, g.. 81
The interest on these bonds is paid
over to the State Treasurer, and by him
distributed semi-annually to the differ
emit school districts.

Tho Storm Of hist Sunday.

A violent storm of rain and hail passed over
the western portion of this county last Sunday.
Its greatest force was spent about nine miles
South west from here, taking Northerly direc-
ton to the Spartanburg line. From the contra
dictory reports we have received ii Is impossi-
BILE for US to say whether it did any great amount
of damage TO the crops or not Parties from the
same neighssshoods. have given US directly op-
posite accounts Of it. One says II completely
ruined the standing wheat and oats, stripped the
leaves from tho cotton and destroyed the plant
entirely in some fields, while another tells us
that it did but little damage, and in two weeks
the crops will show signs of q storm having
struck them. All, however. agree that it was n
severe storm, and the hail-s;ones in some places
were as large round rs halt dollar but flat
In this immediate neigbborhool but few know
that any hail had fallen, it was so light, while
the rain fell in showers and not uncommonly
heavy OF any time.
by the following extracts it appears that 9TH
er sections suffered greatly from it:
ANDERSON, S. c., June 10, 1878.
EDITOR REGISTER: We were visited by two
severe hail storms yesterday Sunday, accom-
panied by a heavy rain. The first was a little
after IL o clock, and the other n little after 2
O. elook. The Lost. .nlopd was about four miles
lower side Of town. The destruction Of garden
and field crops by the hail is almost complete,
while the lands are terribly washed by the
heavy rains.
CAMDEN, June 10.-Thc most violent storm Of
hail and rain that has been felt in many years,
expended its fury on Camden, at 4 o'clock, Sun
day afternoon. The hail, as large round as sill
| YER half-dollars, almost covered the ground
breaking windows in all directions, and running
gardens and crops. One lady, on Dekalb street
had every glass in her greenhouse broken to
pieces. The storm lasted about fifteen minutes
and tho damage is fearful.
COLUMBIA, June 1l,--Rcports of n terrific hail
storm in the lower part of Richland on Sunday
reach us. The stones were rs large as hen eggs
The damage to cotton and corn was consiIcra
ble.
AUGUSTA, June 10.-A storm of wind and hal
prevailed IN this vicinity yesterday. Thomas
Wynn's gin mandatory Mt Bclair was blown
down. Ouhouses and fences prostratcd in
several places, and some crops destroyed. a
vast quantity of large hail stones fell, breaking
window glasses and cutting down corn and cot
ton. Three white children are reported killed

Tho Storm at Goshen Hill.

Mr.. EDITOR "A very destructive hail, wind
and rain storm occurred mere last Sunday even
ing doing immense damage to crops and lands.
Fortunately the hail was bu. of few n,inut es
duration and fell somewhat scattering, ,but it came
down in a hurry and of q size never before seen
by the oldest inhabitant. Most Of the stones
were rs large rs guinea eggs and many as big rs
hen eggs, and Of the most fantastic shapes and
form Many of them had the appearance of
rock candy and rs they fell the wind would
hurl them sometimes twenty yards.
The storm started about five miles above here
and extended nearly mile below this place.
doing the greatest damage, SO far as I have
learned, to the farms of W. w. Sims, G. O.
IIughey, c. Sparks, l.. F. and J. c. Hunter. L.
passed through several other farms, but little
damage is reported and it is to be hoped all of
them will gather n full crops next fall.
What is very remarkable about the things is,
that three heurs afterwards, the hardest rain
which perhaps ever fell here followed right ip
the track Of the hail storm of two clock, com
pleting the devastation, by destroying the crops
on the creeks, and washing the uplands.
1t is believed, The damage to the cotton is
about onct third Of the crop in the path Of the
hail storm, which, perhaps, was about three
fourths of mile in width; and while the corn
blades are literally torn into shreds, it is
thought it will sustain but little damage as the
most Of the corn is young. Watcrmclons will,
however, command good price, and garden
sass will be eaten with better relish when it
grows out afresh.

and bear their misfortune, with equanimity, il
not with pious resignation. l.. F. II.

Resolved, That we the Timber Ridge Club are
opposed to the Primary Election plan and pre-
fer the old plan of Township meeting, the cleo

plan of County Conventions.
RasoiUCd, We most respectfully recommend
that in case the Convention plan is adopted, that
when the proper time shall arrive the Township
meetings for tho Election Of Delegates to the
Convention, be held in all the townships on the
same day and that the Convention assemble on
the second day thereafter and continue in scs-
sion until the nominations are made fully be-

10 'CltlZon.'
If you had given us some reason other than
'thc democrats of my township are for the
Primary election might have thought it
worth our time to mako some reply but you
have given us nothing to reply to. If you be-
.Heve tho Primary system the best for the people
give us your reasons and your plan for conduct
ing the election. 1t may be that you can show
error in the matter. We arc open to con-
viclion. Why don't you get the minority to
draw up q Circular in answer to the mai ajority.
1t is no fault of the majority that tho minority
does not answer their arguments.
You are very liberal in your 'pro rata share
of Offices" There will bo only eight County
officers 10 be selected, including the Legislature,
and you claim that the pro rata share is two for
"my Township" How do you propose to pro rate
the Other six among the remaining nine Town
ships? That is just the kind of pro rahng the
primary election system will perform, we think,
and then there will be enough "disappointed
aspirants" in the other Townships to give
strength to on Independent ticket, in combina-
ton with the Mobley party, and it would be
elected. There's just where our charge of sore
heads" &C., which seems to worry you so much
comes in. Bring out your arguments that the
Primary System is more just and equitable and
will prove more satisfactory to the people than
the Convention system, properly managed, and
VIC will give them full weight. What we earn
estly want is harmony in the party and the will
and wishes of majority Of the democratic vo-
ters represented upon the democratic ticket.
You arc not posted, friend Citizen, upon cleo
ton laws, if you think that il is accessory for
candidate to have n majority of the votes cast
To cnttlc him to the office. If three candidates
run for IN Office, the one that gets the highest
vote is elected, even if he should only receive
one vote over q third ofthc votes cast For ex-
ample there are $500 votes cast A gets 834,
i gets S@3 and c gets S33, and A is elected.
What are after now is TO prevent such
result, by nominating candidates who will be
acceptable and receive the votes of n njority
Of the people. You have mixed up non.ina-
iion with an election. The question in dispute
is bow shall we nominate, 'hc law dictates how
We shrll elect.

From Cross Keys.


Mr.. EDiToE.-Nothing of importance has
transpired in or aboat Cross Keys since my last
communication. Farmers are very busy in their
crops now, and in fact every thing seems to be
wearing n business like air-evcn the doctors
and uudertakers arc wearing q more cheerful
face.
The Primary Election subject is still being
agitated, but the more thinking portion of our
Township see the defects of the proposed plan
and will insist OH the old plan-that of nomi-
mating by Convention. l believe after another
meeting of our club, when this thing can be
more fully explained and discussed, thatit will
be as much opposed as it was in favor Of
the change at our last meeting. am glad that
the member from our club to the County Execu-
tive Committee advocated and voted for the old
plan. lie is man upon whose nets and judg-
ment we may safely rely.
Our club is still on the increase we havs
now about sixty-fvc members, and they arc
still coming to tho front.
We are working for large representation in
