tive abilities are rather ebtuse., For
his information as to the meaning OF
the word .'Gsrman.n will just give
him Webster's definition. Webster
gives it: "A native Of Germany
will further state for his benefit that y
native Of Germany means one born in
Germany.
The gentleman becomes patriotic in
his article. He adjures me that we
transmit our liberties, &C., to future
generations. Does not the gsntleman's
intelligence (if he has any teach him
that our present public school system
is the bulwark of American liberty
and all that pertains thereto?
The gentleman seems to be offended
because have not even asked him his
objections to our present system of pub
lie schools. Shakespeare says "Brevi-
ty is the soul Of wit" and being some
what of the same opinion myself, CON-
cluded that his objections did not sig
Nifty much.
The gentleman also assumes the roll
Of critic, and speaks of assumed intelli-
gence on my part. Now. as far as the
gentleman is individually concerned,
he need have no fears that anyone will
impnte to him even assumed intelli-
gence, if his last article is taken az cri-
terioD. We read in Holy Writ that a
soft answer turneth away wrath, and
his answer to my article certainly con-
tanned that one req uisite. As far as l
am concerned, I am willing that the
public shall pass judgment upon our
intelligence. If we possess any intell-
gence, an intelligent public will soon
discern it; and if we do not, no amount
of assumption on our part will ena-
BILE us to hide our ignorance.
In speaking OF the lack of education,
will include his county as we'll as
mine, and all other counties in this part
OF the State.
thinner" also criticises my use of
the word Government" and says l
should have said people" Now if he
is as patriotic as he assumes to be, he
must believe our Government is a
great and good Government and found
ed OH the intelligence of the people;
and, if so, anything that is for the good
Of the Government is tor the good OF
the people. MONROE HOUSE.

The st. Louis street car conductors
and drivers have struck for fewer
hours. Their average days work has
been eighteen hours, which il a little
more than anyone can stand year in
and year ont. The employers refuse to
accede to their demands, and the con-
sequence il, the cars have ceased to
run, and the general public are patro-
mixing the old and never out-of-ordsr
Walkers Line. The employees hold
bravely out, are receiving aid from
outside sources, and it il difficult to de-
termine when the wheels may run

Improvement in Southeast Mis-
SQUIRT

The Bloomfield (Stoddard county,
Tindicator refers with excusable pride
to the marked improvement made in
that county in the last ten years. It
says: 1.-THE increase in population
alone IL over sixty per cent. and this
does not represent the whole actual
gain. Many farms have been sold to a
better class of farmers, and have been
greatly improved. The number of
schoolhouses has been nearly trebled,
and more and better church and school
buildings show the right kind of effort.
Ten years ago there were two or three
steam saw-mills in the county; now
there are more than fifteen; some hav-
ing three times the capacity of any
then running. This Improvement has
been mainly in the country. The val
ne of town property has not increased
more than fifty per cent, but one can
not travel over any public or private
road in the county without seeing evil
dences Of great change for the better.
II Stoddard county continues to i'm
prove in the same ratio for twenty
years it will be the foremost agricultu-
raj district in the State" One of the
most significant indications of the gen.
ersl prosperity il the fact that for sew
eral years there has not been bust
ness failure in the county.
The improvement exhibited in Stod-
dard county ought to be brought about
in the whole Southeast region of the
State, and the better spirit observable
there authorizes us to expect that it
will be during the present decade.
The Southeastern counties are thinly
settled, and the lands. though surpas-
singly rich, are the cheapest in the
State.-Republicdn.

The Public Schools.

1HoN MOUNTAIN, Mo-, April 2sd, 1881.
Ed. Re0istsr-
notice in your last issue that Linn
ner" attacks my veracity and integri-
ty. have carefully rs-examined his
former communication, and find that
it ID . great deal worse than I at first
supposed. The very first sentence of
his Communication is an attack OH our
present system Of public schools. He
says: "WeN, I have been wondering if
our boasted highfalutin public school
system could find no champion among
the intelligent readers of the REGIs-
TER" What 10 that but an attack and
aslur on our public school system? And
before he gets through, he not only at
tacks our school system, but every
other school system in this or any
other country. He says: "Nor am I,
who have more serious objections to
all present existing systems of teach
ing than can hope to PROFOUND in the
limits Of newspaper article, to be
drawn aside from the point Of issue
taken in my last against compulsion."
Now any one with ordinary common
sense can see by his article that he is
opposed to not only the public schools
Of this State, but all other public
schools and every other existing yys-
tenn Of education.
i suppose s'Limner0 has invented q
new process of imparting instruction to
the rising generation. If %, he should
at once issue flaming circulars headed
Eureka" II have found itE
II the gentleman Is really intelligent
and there in any merit in his system,
an intelligent public will quickly dis
Germ It. But my private opinion is
that it 10 the old story of the ass hay-
ing donnsd the Mons skin; but the ears
are altogether too prominent for him to
make any revolution. even in the pres
ent public school system.
Hie CONSISTENCY reminds me Of anoth-
er famous man-namely, Napoleon
Bonaparte, who protested to be a
friend to religion and education and at
the same time prosecuted them both.
