School Report.

Report of Morris graded school, for the
term ending September 10, 1880. Enroll
ment for the term: Grammar 30, primary
S6, total 116. Average daily attendance:
Grammar 18, primary 30, total 4S. Those
who have not been tardy during the term:
Addie Tronbourn, James Pearce, Flora
Elmer, Freddie Elmer. Ruglas Chester
and Pearly Dragoo.
Until the new school building was ready
for occupancy the schools worked under
quite number of disadvantages, but since
that time have progressed very satisfac-
tory. Irregular attendance and tardiness
have been our greatest evils, and in these
things we ask the parents to help us to
improve in the future. Saying that no
scholar has been neither absent nor tardy
for the past term is speaking very poorly
for our school, Provisions has been made
for three grades, and good school for
the coming winter. The time for com
mencemcnt will be announced hereafter.
Thanking Mrs. Locke for her loyal and
honest work, and the school board for
their hearty support, | remain,
Yours Respectfully,

not save to wash his feet" becomes much
more simple when rendered "He that has
taken bath needeth not save to wash his
feet" Darkness over all the earth" and
lover all the land" (Palestine) are very diff.
ferent things. In every change the reviser
lessen the strain upon faith.
Minor changes as to grammar have been
limited at 1t would take too long to sort
out. arrange and classify them. Here are
few that come hap-hazard: "As we
have forgiven" instead OF "forgive" "our
debtors" "The pinnacle of the temple, 1"
instead os "a pinnacle" (there was but
one) 1.-THE first fruits of them that are
sleening," instead Of "slept" "Ifone died
for all, then were all Dead" instead of
"then cid all die" Paul cid not pray the
Lord to avenge him on Alexander. He
said "The Lord will reward him accord
ing to his works" not 1.-THE Lord reward
him." "Supposing that godliness were
gain, instead of gain is godliness." "The
Word became (instead of was matle) flesh. :"
Born of a woman" instead of made of a
woman" ''For we saw his STAR" not
"have seen" it. Such changes as these are
to be found In every verse, and it will not
require a very careful reading of either of
the gospels to see how many changes have
been made that do not change the spirit,
yet add to its clearness and force, as well
as accuracy.

Evidently the Ortonville Star desires to
have its readers think that the people of
Stevens county are responsible and to
blame, because of the supposed injustice
to the people of Big Stone, in the basis of
representation to the district convention.
The Star is very much mistaken and does
us wrong, in charging Stevens county with
desiring to deprive our neighbors of their
rights, simply because the chairman of the
district committee is resident of this viii
lage. 1t is unnecessary to make any fur
ther defence of the action of the commit
tee, but will say, each county was repre-
sented, and each member of the committee
was consulted as to time, place, basis, &c.
The only member who failed to reply to
the communication from the chairman,
and who neglected to manifest any interest
in the proceedings, was the committeeman
from Big Stone county, Mr.. Addison
Phelps, who. had he done his duty, would
have saved the misunderstanding which
now exists. The Star, tie wish probably
fathering the thought, jumps to the con-
clusion, because it thinks the representa-
tive call is wrong that the senatorial
is right, this is not q logical reasoning, but
on the contrary borders on the absurd.

Valley Reporter: An additional crew of
men has been engaged on the grading
force in the Valley, and work is now pro
crossing more rapidly. The work is now
all finished in the Valley except about a
half mile on the top of the hill, and half
mile on the town site.
L. B. Hodges was in town this week,
settling up the right-ofway question in the
Valley, for the Morris and Browns Valley
branch.
The question of right.of way from the
top of the hill to the townsite, for which
the citizens of this place agreed to pay,
has been settled for by Mr.. Hodges, in be-
half of the citizens, for the very salisfac.
tory price of 1886. And now all the Valley
people have to do is to pay the amount,
the bond will be released, and everything
will be lovely.

From there we passed on to Campbell, q
small thriving town, which has been built
up within the last two years. Your
Especial correspondent" has already de-
scribed this town, and yet he labors under
one serious mistake. In speaking of the
drug business in that town he asserts that
the prices date back to war times. We
assert they back to antidiluvian times, or at
least to the first introduction of drugs into
this country We had occasion to use
couple of cents worth OF that commodity,
for which we paid twenty cents. Well,
we have always been in favor of drug
gist keeping up appearances and willing to
at least five hundred per cent profit, know
ing that we'll regulated drug store cannot
get along with less than that. For man
to tax two dollars for seventy.five cent
box of pills is, to say the least, cheeky.

vestment and that we had contributed in
a large measure to his happiness.

Mr.. E. Balentlne and his estimable wife.
MIR. B. is thoroughbred yankee hailing
from the state of Maine He has one Of
the finest sections of land in this whole
region, two and half miles from town,
and has large farm house and 800 acres
broken. Your special correspondent has
already gone tnte the details of the large
farming interests of this region. We spent
couple of nights ten miles west of there,
in the Michigan settlement, Dakota, with
mine host E. K. Crafts and lady, and to
say they are host within themselves but
feebly expresses it. Mr.. G. and sons have
1880 acres of land and are bound to be a
little ahead in everything that tends to
make home pleasant and inviting We
were very much pleased with the intelli,
gence, refinement and taste displayed by
that community. They have made a
grand selection for their future homes and
are rapidly improving the country.
