QUESTIONS FOR THE THOUGHTFUL

l. LIS there so much resemblance between
either the words or figures three" and
twelve that compositor would be likely
to mistake the one for the other?
2. If we were to write such very "mod-
est articles about ourselves, as some are in
the habit of doing, and, when reading the
proof, should discover that II had been
substituted for 3, in one of these, and were
to mark the error for correction. with an
honest desire to state nothing but facts, "
and our printer were still to persist in issu-
ing the article without correction, would We
be likely to send uneorreeted copies to in
dividuals through the country and to other
newspapers for reinsertion, and continue to
do SO even as late as the time when a pre-
tended explanation appeared in the paper
which originally printed the article for us :
And, if we did SO, would we not inevitably
assume the responsibility of the misstate-
ment?
B. If, by such an exaggeration, we were
to make it appear that we had been ''Vice-
President" of an association "twice as long
as said association had existed" and that
we had first been elected to the office before
we were fifteen years old, and if, after we
had published and republished such pal
pable error" the attention of the public
should be drawn to the matter. would we
be justified in claiming, through our ICON
frere," that the persons who were the
means of thus drawing attention to the
facts, were, for that reason, guilty of sin
dulging in personal abuse" and more
especially, after we had published most
scurrilous articles, relating to these same
parties, in papers at distance?
We are still believers in the maxim that
strict integrity is the only road to perna,
nent success"
We shall be pleased to hear from all who
desire thorough, practical, Business Ed
ucation, and we are prepared to impart
such an education, at less expense to the
student, than it would cost at any similia,
institution. Address,

Catching at StrawS.

Mr.. EDITOR: There is an amusing crit-
cism in your issue of Sunnay last, by a COM
petitor, concerning Prof. Goodmans Off
cial connection with the Business College
Association of the United States and
Canada The Nashville Banner made
mistake in its types by saying the gentle
man named had been Vice-President twice
as long as said Association has existed; yet
this competitor takes the palpable error for
a text upon which he writes a chapter of
abuse. I am glad to know that Prof. Good
man published facts about the merits of his
colleges, the proper thing for an enterpris-
ing man to do, without indulging in per-
sonal abuse.
This note is written unsolicited, i'll behalf of
gentlemen well-known here and univer-
sally esteemed, whose word is unquestioned
by anybody. / send you a correction from
the Banner. CoNFRERE.
A MATTER OF TIME.
''In our issue of Sept LIST Prof Frank
Goodman was referred to as being Vice
President of the Business College Associa-
ton of the United States and Canada for
tewlve years, when it should have been three
years; and in looking over the proof, Prof.
Goodman made the correction, but in the
hurry incident to getting out an issue of
over ten thousand copies the mistake was
not corrected.
We had learned from Frof. Goodman,
and the press from other parts of the coun
try, that he was elected to the office referred
to- at Cleveland, Ohio, in August 1879; at
Chicago, ILL.,, July, 1880, ..andby the Gin
cinnati Convention of this year, has been
retained until June 1882.
We feel, however, that Prof. Goodmans
retention in the Office for three years in sue
cession is as much all evidence of his pro-
ficiency, and that he is as highly honored,
as if he were retained twelve or more years.
1t is hoped this correction will be as extern
sively circulated as was the error

A postal from our correspondent, S. H.
Hendrix, dated Carter's Depot, September
II, at o'clock p. M, states that the
Watauga River was higher than it has been
since 1867 or '6S. Great damage was done
to the river farmers. The saw mill at
Watauga Mills was gone. Vast quantities
of RATS, pumpkins, watermelons, corn and
lumber had passed there since II o'clock
that day, and the damage could not be esti-
mated.
At this point the Tennessee river was ris
ing, with drift wood running, Sunday,
Sunday night and up to about noon yester-
day, reaching about II feet tide water
Then it began to fall and was still falling
slowly at latest observation last night.

The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1881-04-29

Washington, April 2S-It is believed
that another caucus will be held next
Monday, and that the first executive
session will be held on next Tuesday.
1t has been decided that the first exec
utive business will be the consideration
of the Chinese treaties in order that
they may be ratified and accepted in
the time set down. The caucus COM
mittee will endeavor to retain entire
control Of the executive work, SO that
the republicans can resume their fight
on the election Of senate officers when
ever they deem it expedient. Senators
Rollins, and Hill of Colorado, are
named us two of the caucus committee,
but the others are not yet decided on.
Hoar is urged by some, but the fact
that his colleague is chairman, will
prevent his going on the committee.
The republican senators unanimous
ly believe in sustaining Malone, and
the only matter that is likely to cause
any division among them is the Rob-
ertson case, as Conkling holds that his
duty to his party prompts the use of
any advantage he may get to eject
Robertson.

Conkling, Cameron and Malone have

The same paper on the Dorsey din

Santa Fe, N. M, April 2s.-Much
excitement prevails here over the ru-
NOR that Chief Justice L. Bradford
Prince is to be removed. Ex-senator
$. w. Dorsey is at the bottom Of the
affair. BY connivance with J. C.
Davis, register of the land office, Dor
sey has managed to buy up some 1900
acres Of the best land and water privi-
leges in the eastern end of Colfax
county. This end has been compassed
BY pushing through the registers office

The people in that section Of the terri
tory are seeking redress, and it is be-
lieved the matter will come up before

have the entire matter thoroughly ven
tilated and the swindlers exposed. He
is thoroughly acceptable to the people
