Ed. Register-
The weather In this section has been unusu-
ers are somewhat discouraged, the cold wealth
er having materially interfered with their ar
fragments for planting Spring crops. 1t is
estimated that the fruit crop, especially that
of peaches, will be entire failure. The
wheat crop, it 10 believed, is yet uninjured,
ami if pothing occurs to injure 1t in the fu-
ture, the yield will be as large as usual Bu-
mess seems to be unusually brisk at Cross
Roads. and the firms there engaged in mer-
chan disipg are undergoing some change. The
new firm of McHenry and Logan have receiv-
ed their new stock of goods, aud are now sell
ing cheap for cash. Simeon Buford, former
~ q merchant and resident of GAINESVILLE,
Reynolds county, Missouri, has purchased the
interest Of Stephen McGrady, of the firm Of
Reed and McGrady, merchants of Cross
Roads, and will as soon as convenient move
his family there, having rented the prope -ty
of Mrs. Peter Warren. The new firm have
replenished their stock of goods. and are now
more fully prepared to meet the demands o:
their customers, and are Offering greater in
ducements than was ever before offered in
Iron county. They wish to impress upon the
minds of the public, the fact that they will
not be undersold in Southeast Missouri.
Wehave been informed that burglary was
committed on the residence Of A. J. Palmer,
near Cross Roads, on last Thursday night.
The burglars entered the house, by way OF
the front parlor window. and after searching
the narlor in oueat of yaluabIes proceeded
to the hall on tue second floor, where they
found trunk being the property OF Mrs. Spen-
Ger. Having succeeded in breaking open the
trunk, without arousing the sleeping inmates
of the house, they secured thirty dollars in
money, . twenty and . ten dollar bill. In
their eaoerness to escape, they dropped the
ten dollar bill on the hail floor, where it was
picked up aext morning. Who the perpetra-
tors OF the outrage were, is not known.

Justices Of the Peace.

Ed. Register-
An interesting opinion has lately
been rendered by the Supreme Court
Of this State, which is reported in the
Missouri Republican Of last Friday, as
follows.
JUsrIcEs OF THE PEACE, ELECTION or
Section 2, 6O7 of the Revised Statutes of 1879
providing for the uniform election OF sjustices
of tho peace in 1882, and that those in Office at
the time of the passage and taking effect Of
said section should continue to act until the
expiration of their commissions and until
their SUCCESSORS we're elected and qualified, Is
constitutional. It II the intention of the said
section that there should be no election OF JUS
tices of the peace In 1880, and that those then
In eflicc should continue to act As such until
the election Of their successors in 1882. Since
no election was authorised in 1889, the cleo
ton Of justices at that time was invalid and
Of no effect. Proceedings dismissed. Opin-
ion by Ray, J. STAT. Ex Rel. vs.. Ransom.
From this 1t will be seen that no
new Justices Of the Peace could be
elected last November, and that Squire
A. H. Eaton was correct, when, at the
last December term, of the County
Court. he, through his attorney, took
the same ground. in a petition present
ed to but Overruled by the County
Court, in which he prayed the Court
not to commission the party claiming
TO be elected In his place.
The above opinion settles the point
that Squire Eaton holds over, and that
he, and not the newly commissioned
person, is one Of the Justices Of the
Peace within and for Dent Township.
AS believe new justices claim to
have been elected in all the Townships.
I would request you to publish the
foregoing for the Information Of AL
whom it may concern.

C0mpulsory Education.

Ed. Register-
Well. I've been wondering il our
boasted highfalutin public school sys-
tenn could find no champion among
the intelligent readers of the REGIS
TER. Usually we can dnd hosts Of
ready heroes of the popular to take up
the gauntlet thrown in challenge of
any institution 80 popular. But must
not flatter myself that I'vcwon a VIC
tory ere I've drawn my sword. or even
proclaimed the full list of evils arising
from the present method Of teaching.
Now, l do not write against public
schools, nor against free schools. a.
such. but against the. folly of those who
would undertake to thrust a good thing
down my throat or that of my children
merely because they (the foolish think
it good thing! Nor am I, who have
more seriOus objections to all present
existing systems OF teaching than
can hope to PROFOUND in the limits of a
newsF aper article. to be drawn aside
from the point Of issue taken in my last
against c0mpulsiOn.
do insist that 1t would be unworthy
of State that prides itself on it, intel-
ligencs and the, fairness Of its laws, that
claims to have attained its present re-
spectacle status through the voluntary
acquisition Of knowledge on the part of
its people. to allow itself to be marked
with the stigma of Prussian despot-
ism, or the imitation stupidity of oil
garch-riddep John Bullism. to please
the whims Of y few "select spirits" who
favor us with their presence from other
localities.
