Mr.. EDITOR: Our quiet village
has been disturbed of late. w had
a Sunday School Institute a week ago,
in which WI got some new ideas; and
last Saturday the Teachers Associa-
sion net here and held a pleasant SEES
sion. We all enjoyed it. We have
some lively teachers in this county
perhaps they have been awakened a
little by our efficient superintendent.
The exercises were all interesting. The
lecture on the history of the late war
was said to be of especial interest,
though | stopped my ears to that. l
lived through that history aud | never
wish to hear, or read, a word about it,
but of course it is and ought to be Of
interest to the rising generations. The
discussion on the improvement of our
schools was interesting to every one.
Some of the teachers thought the
best way to improve the schools, was
to improve themselves and their man
ner of teaching-an and then the im
provement would extend to the schools.
While others seemed to think that
finding fault with the school houses,
the directors, and even the superiu-
tendent, would do the business direct
" while still another young gentle
man, from Red Cloud, who said be
was not in the teaching business at
present, thought the best way to i'm
prove the schools was to cultivate the
acquaintance of the school ma'ams,
and. it Is said be puts his theory into
practice" The lecture in the even
ing, by the Rev. Mr. Pryse, was q
treat to US all. l cannot attempt to
describe it; but he said he spoke an
hour and a half, while l thought it
only lasted a half an hour.
We have, at last, a frst-class ensa-
ton here-a haunted house. l al
ways supposed that ghosts only ap-
peared in olden countries, and 10 old
houses, but we have one here-aud in
\ dug-out. An old man died last fall,
leaving a young widow and two small
children. His widow has married
again, and his land passed into other
hands; but, as Shakespeare says, AT
the witching hour Of night. when
graveyards yawn and ghosts do stalk
abroad" he appears and stalks around
and in the house, and has been heard
to dig in the side hill, as though not
satisfied with his present dug-out, he
is making him another. Though
some people pretend to say that he
thinks his children have been de-
frauded of their rightful inheritance
and he has come back to attend to it.
Sometimes such matters would be
more satisfactorily adjusted if attend
ed BY a ghostly presence, and if there
be srch a thing as coming back to
earth, be would be the man to , ome.
for in his lifetime he always threat
cued dire vengeance on any one who
he thought was trying to ipjure him
and his. We propose to make up a
party to 20 out and interview h;m-to
| the end that his grievance. whatever
it is, may he rcdressed, and his IN.
quiet spirit may rest in peace.
| BErsEY.

The speech of Mr.. Roscoe CoNKLING at the
Republican state Convention yesterday
which We print in full clsewherc-is by fan
the ablcst he has ever delivered. 1t Is clab-
crate, argumentative, and eloquent.
On the finances il is conservative. Mr.
CoNKLISG Is for maintaining the standard
OF the Republican party full high advanced,
and, regarding the present greenback cx-
ctement as ill-foundcd and temporary, ne
nptly quotes LAMARTINE:
80 place my bark on the highest promon-
tory Of the beach and wait for the rising Of
the tide to make it float"
The confidence OF capitalists, Of property
holders generally, and Of the most inteli-
gent people of the country in Mr.. CoNKLING
will be greatly enhanced by this speech. 1t
may promote or it may retard his reelection
to the United States Senate; but we think it
viii increase his chances for the Republican
nomination for President in 1887.
Mr.. CoNKLGNG starts OF with declaration
Of Jcllelsonian sentiment in the following
words:
be object of just government IL not 10
carry on business, but to protect life. prop
erty, and rights and thus 10 leave every
citizen free and safe in all lawful cxcrtions,
opportunities, and enterprises in which he
chooses To embark"
In reference to the treatment Of tho South.
the tone of his speech Is ia full accord with
the doctrine which has found frequent cx-
preston in these columns: we should be-
just, kind, aud generous, but. at the same
time, taking up arms against a Government

Syracuse Not Democratic Convention.

The State Convention which assembled at
Syracuse ON Wednesday. and continued its
proceedings and adjourned without dav
yesterday, and which was generally cx-
pcctcd to be and was considered Demo-
cratic Convention, appears to us undcscrv-
ing Of that honored name.
The most alarming violation Of the Con-
etitution that has ever taken place since
the foundation of the Government was the
change, by the mere action Of the legisla-
tive department of the Government. Of
the constitutional provisions for the
election OF President and Nicc-Prcsl-
dent of the United States. This was
done by creating what was called an Flee
toral Commission TO perform certain func-
tiOns which, under the Constitution dcvOlVcd
ON the two Houses of Congress Yet the
state Convention at Syracuse had not any
opinion to express ON this subject-not one
word OF condemnation Tor this unconstitu-
tional measure.
The Convention resolved that "by an in
famous conspiracy of force and fraud the
high officials and unrcpudiatcd leaders OF
the Republican party annullcd and reversed
the nations choice for the Presidency and
WASHINGTON" &c.
Now the fraud and force in the Presiden-
tal election would have been imperative
but for the violation of the Constitution in
creating an Electoral Commission because
tho votes obtained by fraud and force would
never otherwise have been counted.
Fraud and force are specific individual
crimes, which can be punished and pre-
vented. They are temporary WRONGS But
nm established precedent for the overthrow
" the Constitution Is the permanent de-
struction of our free institutions. Of the
right OF the people to elect their own rulers.
which lasts for all time. Could there be a
more ilagitious recrcancy to duty than the
failure To condemn in clear, strong. and UNI
mistakablc terms such an infraction Of the
fundamental law Of the land ?
The platform is like resolution censur-
Ing TWEED but cautiously abstaining from
any condemnation Of stealing.
1t is faint, faltering, liSping resolution
breathing an uncertain sound, when the
voice Of the Convention should have been
articulate and clear and its tones Of thun-
der.
thimbleful TO the ocean was the pro-
portion of Democracy among the ruling
spirits Of the Convention.
The Constitution is the priceless heritage
alike OF the rich and the poor. The cowardly
failure TO stand by its sacred provisions at
Syracuse must greatly impair and may
justly destroy our confidence in the fitness
Of the men who controlled the Con-
vention for public places of honor
and trust. IL is the rights Of the
people, and not mere names, that We desire
10 cherish and protect Those who forget
the Constitution, as it was forgotten at
Syracuse, deserve in turn, to be forgotten
by free, self-respectng, spirited. and
patriotic people.
II was not, in true exalted and compre-
hensiye sense a Democratic Convention.
