NJ Ia not the homely old adage
applicable here-that "the proof OF the pud-
ding is In the chewing Of the bagH When
the Nichols government went into opera
tiop State bonds were down. People would
tell YOU Ii was because Kellogg was In power.
Yet that was not strictly true. 1t was be
cause Kelloggism was rampant, that Is. the
people were taxed to the point OF de5truc-
iion Of all profits and honest industry. Gov.
Nichols was inaugurated; sentiment and
the belief that taxation would be greatly re-
duced ran the bonds up, but the incubus
of Kelloggian taxation Is there; the people
are not prosperous; "priuate credit ~ de-
dressed, and the bonds are going to pieces.
is not public credit dependent ON private?
And one more proposition. -.
Louisiana may tomorrow have no credit
but the private citizen who has property, m
tegrity, capacity and industry to offer OF the
counter OF the capitalist, can got all The
money he wants. The proposition Is indi5
putable. 1t practically asserts itself every
day; it has done 1t always, IN all civilized
countries, and 1t will go on to do 1T to the end
of time.
For me, want Louisiana to pay all she
legtimately owes on the best terms she can
make with her creditors: but woi Id to God
/ could wake up tomorrow morning and find
Louisiana without "public credit" for q dime !
To tho convention | would say: Torture
not your minds about "public credit" don't
any longer try to foster the curse; arrange
the legitimate debt as best you can with the
creditors; but denote all yoatr best energies 10
The freeing Of industry from egery tranumet not
absolutely essential to conducting economical
government. Don't leave your hall Of assem-
bly, until you have made 1t impossible for the
State, or for the cities, towns or parishes of
the State ever to incur one more dollar of in
debtedDeSS.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

As the public school teachers have o right
to be heard before the people, we gladly give
publicity to the following letter, asking for
representation in the convention
To the Friends and Patrons OF tho Public
Schools OF New Orleans:
Believing that you cannot fail to be in sym
pathy with q movement which has for its OBJ
ject the representation and Improvement OF the
public schools. the teachers are induced to
appeal to you to bring eveFy possible influ-
ence to bear in securing the election of dele
gates to the constitutional convention, who
will carefully and jealously guard the educa-
power to restore the public schools to their
former prosperity and efficiency.
AS gentlemen pre-eminently fitted to fill
these responsible positions we suggest the
names of the Hon VIM. O. Rogers, the pres
ent city superintendent, and OF the Hon |. N.
wants Of the schools would make them inYal,
liable acquisitions to the convention.
1t is conceded on all sides that SO important
a body as the convention must be composed
Of men of character and intellect. The petty
politician must be content to be q passive
spectator. The framing of q constitution is
too difficult and delicate q task to be cOntided
to the ignorant and yenal. Our organic law
must be the work OF men of sterling worth
and capacity.
In Mr.. Rogers and Mr.. Marks the public
schools will have worthy and able represent
tatives, and the people warm and trusty
friends.
We exhort you to give them your united
support, Ii you would protect your educa-
tional interests, which have already suffered
too much through unjust and unwise legisla-
ton, and which will, In all probability, suffer
still more, unless proper individuals be chosen
to represent them.

The Cincinnati daily star. [volume] ([Cincinnati, Ohio]) 1875-1880, 1879-02-10

Solomon spauiding, of Amity, who was
ap invalid for some months previous
to his death in 1876, employed
the lonely hours Of his con6ne-
ment in writing an imaginative history
of those mysterious tribes who have left
traces of their existence in the mounds
so common in many parts of our country.
This he entitled "a Manuscript Found"
aud sent it to Pittsburg publisher. Its
publication was delayed in order that the
author might prepare an introduction,
and in the meanwhile the manuscript
was spirited away. DR.. Spaulding soon
died, and in the Book of Mormon, which
subsequently appeared, his surviving
friends distinctly recognized the romance
of lost race, which was thus destined to
become the Bible of new and, as it
proved, quite an extensive religion.

HOME OF THOMAS JEFFERSON.

AS the traveller approaches the home of
Thomas jefferson at Monticello, he passes
through wooded country, near the sum-
nit of one of the Blue Ridge peaks, and
within easy view is seen the old graveyard,
with its dilapidated brick wall. Nearly all
the Jeffersons are buried there. A COM
mon stone about three feet high marks the
grave of the author of the Declaration.
Born April 2, 1743, o. s.; died July 1,
1926" is all that can be seen. Time has
worn away the inscription, "Author of the
Declaration of Independence, of the statue
of Virginia, and founder of the University
of Virginia" short distance away is the
old home, surrounded by a grove of an
cient trees. The aristocratic coach that he
rode in from New York to Philadelphia,
stands in the back porch, with its tires
fallen off, and general appearance of long
decay. The view from the doorway of the
house is grand. At the foot of the peak
flows the Rivanna river; Charlottesville and
the university lie beyond; to the north
stretches away the Blue Ridge, and cult
waited fields and country homes are seen
every where. Here Mr.. Jefferson lived in
retirement from 1909 till his death in 1926.
The house is much decayed, and sadly in
need of repairs; nothing has been done to
it since the war began. 1t was once owned
and cared for by Capt. Levy of the United
States Navy, and by his will left to the
government with an endowment fund for
an agricultural school, It was claimed for
some reasons that the will was void. The
case got into the courts, and writ of par
tition was granted the heirs. The estate
passed into the hands of commissioners,
and is still undivided. Meanwhile, the
home of Jefferson is rotting away for want
of care; in few years more it will be unfit
for man to dwell in, and snakes and birds
which live in the mountains will find their
way into its rooms.

No Tilpe for Hating.
Aegone with feud away with strife;
Our human hearts unmating;

Aegone with feud away with strife;
Our human hearts unmating;
Let US be friends againl This life
Is all too short for hating;
30 dun the day, SO dim the way,
80 rough the road we re faring-
Far better veal with faithful friend,
Than stalk along uncaring.
The barren 10 the withered vino,
Are types of selfish living;
But souls that give, like thine and mine.
Renew their life by living.
While cypress waves DER early graves,
On all the ways we're going,
Far better plant where seed is soant,
Than tread on fruit that's growing.
Away with scornl Since die we must-
And rest on ONT low pillow;
There are no rivals in the dust
No foes beneath the willow,
30 dry the bowers, so few the flowers,
Our earthly way discloses,
Far better stoop where daisies droop,
Than tramp Ger broken rosesl
OF what are all the Joys we hold,
Compared to Joys above us,
And what are rank, and power, and gold.
Compared to hearts that love US
So feet our years, 80 full Of tears,
So closely death is waiting,
God give us space for loving grace
But leave no time for hating.
