The school board on Monday evening elect
ed ii. +. Woodard, OF Indiana, for superin-
tendent OF the Wichita public schools, and a
Mr.. Tremble, of Illinois, we believe, for as
sistant superintendent. The, election of teach
ers was postponed until another meeting.
The parties chosen are new men to our State,
to our people, and strangers to our children.
Having heard no intimation in advance, and
no reason since, We can give no explanation.
We have no doubt as to the competency OF
the new men engaged. They came, no
doubt, well recommended, but the board will
permit US to state that this changing Of teach
ers Especially OF a superintendent every
whipstitch, is the poorest kind of policy, AN
tagonislic not only to the interest Of parents,
but to the welfare of the children. The board
no doubt believes itself warranted in such a
summary change, but its members must not
blame those who see il in very different
light. Merit, not favoritism, should govern.
The new Superintendent comes for $500 less
per annum than was paid Mr.. Mckim, but
how many parents win think the saving of
few do liars should in any way effect the mat
ter of his child's mental well being. We sin
cerely hope the board has made no mistake.
We know them to be good men, but the
change was surprise to US, as it will be to q
great majority.

Beware Of bogus Singer Sewing Machines.
The new Singer agent at this place would
have people believe that only agents for the
Singer Manufacturing Co., can sell . genuine
Singer machine. This is entirely false, and
when the pubic know so well that this COM
pany is now. and has been for the past ten
years, taking back thousands OF old worthless
| and worn-out machines, rebuilding and sell
ing them again as new ones, we wonder how
be could have the audacity to say that re-
built machine can be bought of the new COM
panies which have only existed since the
Singers patent expired, one year ago, and
companies who sell for s:eash and never take
back a machine.
II you buy Henry Stewart Singer manu-
featured in New York City, Williams Sing
er manufactured in Montreal, Canada, or q
Chicago Singer, you run no risk Of getting q
rebuilt machine as you do in buying those Of
the Singer manufacturing company. This is
self-svident for the reasons gwen above.
Another fact Is, that the new Singers are
sold on their actual merits and not on IN old
reputation, as the others are.
We deal in all frstclass machines among
which are the Wheeler d Wilson, Weed,
White, Victor, Wilson and all kinds Of Sing
ers. We buy for cash and sell for legitimate
profit. just as any other kind of merchandise
is sold, giving our customers the benefit Of
ten dollars on each machine which would 9TH
erwise be paid as commission to canvassing
agents.
Customers will find it great advantage to
buy Of resident dealers, from the fact that il
their machines get out OF order it can be re-
paired With little or no cost, while IL they
buy OF agents, when they want them to fix
their machines they are gone. Don't forget
to give US a call.

from the main building by fire wall of
brick reaching from foundation to roof, is
a portion of the house where the furnaces
and the boilers are located, and where, on
each story, are the packing, shipping, and
receiving rooms If fire should break out
here, it could not communicate with the
main building, for on every story there are
double iron doors, to completely isolate
these rooms from the store proper Besides,
as precaution against fire, there is ther-
mostat in every ceiling of every story at
distances of twenty-four feet apart, each
one of which will give instant notice of the
first beginning of fire in its vicinity, and
will communicate an alarm to the Central
Fire Engine House.
The chandeliers in the building, designed
by Mr.. James Mclaughlin, are of polished
bronze, each having six lights. There are
forty-eight of them on each floor.
One of the finest features in the structure
of the building is the amount of plate glass
windows on three fronts of the building.
These make it one of the best lighted bust
ness houses in this country. Fully twenty
five thousand square feet of surface is repre-
sented by the glass in the windows.
For week or more the departments will
be kept open until o'clock each evening
for display by gas-light of the goods, the
arrangements, etc. 1t will prove rare
treat in showing the bewildering display of
beautiful fabrics, the busy work of the hun
dreds of employees and the throngs OF Wis
itors.
During the exhibition by gas-light no
goods will be sold.
This mammoth structure which was
thrown open to the public this morning
represents half million of dollars The
work on the foundations was begun May
1st, 1877, and has been steadily pushed on
until completed last week.

GOLD AND RESUMPTION.

As we approach the day Of resumption
there Is more or less anxiety about the abil-
ity Of the Government to sustain that meas
ure when II shall be entered upon. The
greatest anxiety centres in the question
whether or not England and France will
prevent the expectation Of gold to this
country, and at the same time draw gold
from us. In former years and under differ
ent circumstances the Bank of England was
able to control the imports and exports of
gold in Great Britain aud TO regulate its
purchasing power; but that was when the
people of the United States imported more
than they exported andshad to pay heavy
balances in gold. The bank is now, no
doubt, trying its old game, but existing cir
cumstances are not favorable to its success
Much Of England's financial supremacy has
been transferred to this country under the
changing currents of trade.
The United States have become an abso-
lutte necessity to Europe in the way of pro.
ducts of the soil, minerals, and manuiac.
lures, with tide in our favor that is not
likely to be reversed very soon, If ever.
During the year ending juno 30, 1878, our
exports exceeded our imports by S257, 1885,
OGi, and this balance brought to our shores
that amount in gold or our bonds IT makes

it is a debtor or creditor in gold, as to its
influencing n change in its value. When

position to appreciate Its value than when
the boot Is OH the other foot, We can safely
rely upon the necessities of the Old World
for our products and the large excess Of our
exports over our imports for supply OF
gold at par value; and this, when taken in
connection with our volume of silver coin
establishes beyond doubt our ability tc
foat the paper circulation OF this country
and render resumption perfect success
with ability to maintain specie payment,
in the future. We now hold the srcptre o.

in the track of progress westward, and i
peace is vouchsafed to this nation, that su
premacy will not be transferred TO the Eas
again for long years, If ever. The people o
Europe must be fed with our cereals ant
be clothed with our cottons for the day ha
gono by when they can compete with eithe
in perfection and cheapness. This state o
affairs has dsarmed the Bank Of Englan,
OF its power to regulate values and contro

worlds trade and manufactures is greater
and overshadows that of all England.
