THE Prescott Plaindealer of last
week makes the following observa-
tionS:
''The Republican papers are now
busy explaining their recent defeat
and assigning the causes. Among 9TH
ers the River Falls Press explains how
it came that G. r, Morse was defeated.
And gives as a reason that he was nei-
Their representatives Republican or
representative Temperance man.
While we concede he was not repre-
sentative Republican, because he is too
honest, and not representative Tenn
perance man because he is not enough
of a fanatic, yet we fail to spot any
hoary headed Republican in Pierce
county, that we believe could have
made better race. The Press should
recollect that the Peoples ran very
strong man, and that the Republicans
everywhere were more or less discon-
tented, and the hearts of great many
of them more or less diseased because
of hope deferred The Press man
should hold his gall, and not let it boil
over and run down on the head of the
Republican candidate for the Assem-
bly, at time when his political oppo-
nents felt a twinge of conscience in
voting against so good man.

SARCASM.

If, in social life, people We're actuat-
ed by kind feeling toward each other,
| there would be less heartachc and few
er tears shed. This may be said, and
equally true, of all our institutions of
learning, from the State University
down to the common country school.
1t would seem that our country is
blessed with every educational advant-
age, and everything being done to IA
ciltate the acquisition of knowledge
by our young people, and now it only
remained for each teacher and student
to perform the part assigned him.
1t is the duty and privilege of every
student to avail himself of every adj
vantage granted him, and to improve
his time for the advancement of his
education; still, he must remember
that an education is not acquired in a
single day, nor yet in two or three
terms OF school, but by close and long
continued application.
The Teachers have great response
bility resting upon them; they occupy
places of trust, placed there by confid-
ing parents and guardians; to a certain
extent they have the rising generation
in their power. 1t is, therefore, all
important that teacher, whether he
rank as President, Principal or q SUBJ
ordinate, use his influence for good.
teacher is annoyed in numerous
ways; many times the student is re-
fractory and forgetful of his own in
terests, and subjects himself to re-
proof; and again, he may seem unnec-
| essarily dull at times, but patience and
| forbearance will be attended with bet
ter results than harsh word or a cut
ting, sarcastic speech.
1t is deplorable fact that many of
our teachers of every grade have fall
en- into the habit of using sarcasm.
Many student has been dismissed at
night with throbbing brow and heavy
heart, caused by some sarcastic re-
mark, thoughtlessly spoken perhaps,
yet none the less cutting.
Should a student be imperfect in an
exercise, let the tutor practice pa
thence, recollecting that he little knows
what effort it costs and under what
disadvantages the pupil labored; nor
should he lose sight of the fact that
he himself was once a student, and re-
Numbering the Golden Rule" make
use of kind words, rather than resort
to scathing sarcasm which may inflict
wound which even time can never
heal. E. L. w.

Eleven years ago Charles II. Martin
and Martha Spencer were married in
Ohio. After their modest wedding the
young couple, with their joint savings,
bought small farm near Oberlin, and
became residents of Lorain county, where
they lived for year. Martin was then
attacked with the western fever in ita
most acute form, and, selling his farm.
started for the Neosho valley, Kansas.
Mrs. Martin was left in Ohio, intending
to remain until her husband should locate
farm and send for her. Martin, when
he reached the boundless west, caughi
the fever in dead earnest, and for sir
months was sick at Usage City. Whcs
first Frustrated he wrote for his wife, blu,
the letter never reached her, and shortly
before his recovery he received his OWE
nissive through the dead letter derarl
ment. He wrote again, but received no
response, and when able to travel starter
for Ohio again with much lighter
purse. He went to 0berlin and foua<
that his wife after waiting .vainly for
letter from her husband had gone 70
Chester to her aunt's. To Chester Mar
tin proceeded at once, and there was in.
formed that his aunt had occupied~a lot
in the village cemetery for four months
and that Mrs. Martin had gone to Cleve-
land. The anxious husband came to ,his
city and advertised and searched, but II
vain Heart broken and discouraged
Martin again departed westward.
He lost what little money he had
remaining and roamed about for two
years aimlessly. The Black Hills excite
mcnt caught him and he was one of the
first tie stake out claim therein. He To-
Gated several in succession, selling them
in turn to newcomers, and at the end Of
three years found himself worth in the
neighborhood of ten thousand dollars,
which he invested in stock ranch in
Southern Kansas, and settled down to
the life of cattle grower.
Last Monday he again appeared in this
city, in response to q letter sent him, and
was reunited to his wife from whom he
had been separated for nearly ten years.
After the death of her relative, Mrs. Mar
tin had not gone to Cleveland, as was
thought, but had gone to Planesvillc
There she remained few weeks, and
taking what little wealth she had inheri-
ted from her aunt, started to KansaS L.
seek her husband, She returned three
months later and ever since made Cleyc
land her home, supporting herself By
sewing The was informed of her hus-
bands search for her here but all effofts
to discover a trace of him through letters
to the West were fruitless, and she calm
ly waited for events to occur. Her patti
ence was rewarded, for early this month
a letter was received at Chester from the
long absent Martin, asking if anything
had been heard of his wife.
The last few days have been spent by
the long separated pair in renewing the
courtship of their youth and receiving
the congratulations of the friends gained
by the lady during her eight years resi-
dence on the West side. Next week
they start for Florence, Kansas, near
which town Martins farms lies, and
where his check is good for $25, 600.

The Wood Floors OF Russia.

The finest floors are said to be seen In
Russia. For those of the highest grade
tropical woods are exclusively employed.
Fir and pine are never used, as in con-
sequence of their sticky character they
attract and retain dust and dirt, and
therefore soon become blackened. Pitch
pine, too, is liable to shrink, even after
being well seasoned.
The mosaic wood floors in Russia are
often of extraordinary beauty. One in
the Summer Palace is of small squares
of ebony inlaid with mother of-pearl. A
considerable trade is done in Dantzic and
Riga by exporting small blocks of oak
for parquette floors. There is an active
demand for these in France and Ger
many, but none in England.

Moral Character Of Longfellow's Poetry.

The foundations of our distinctive lit
erature were largely laid II New England,
and they rest upon morality. Literary
New England had never trace of liter
airy Bohemia. The most illustrious group,
and the earliest, of American authors
and scholars and literary men, the Bos-
ton and Cambridge group of the last
generation-O Charming, the two Danas,
Sparks, Everett, Bancroft, Ticknor,
Prescott, Norton, Ripley, Palfrey, EN-
erson, Parker, Hawthorne, Longfellow,
Holmes, Whittier, Agassiz, Lowell, Mot
ley-have been all sober and industrious
citizens of whom Judge Sewall would
have approved. Their lives as well as
their works have ennobled literature.
They have illustrated the moral sanity
of genius.
Longfellow shares this trait with them
all. 1t is the moral purity Of his verse
which at once charms the heart, and In
his first most famous poem, the Psalm
of Life, it is the direct inculcation OF q
moral purpose. Those who insist that
literary art, like all other art, should not
concern itself positively with morality,
must reflect that the heart of this age

however differently, as that of any time
by its master-poet. This, indeed. is his
peculiar distinction. Among the great
poetic names of the century in English
literature, Burns, in general way, is
the poet Of love; Wordsworth, of lofty
contemplation of nature; Byron, Of pas
sion; Shelley, of aspiration; Keats, OF
romance; Scott, of heroic legend; and
not less, and quite as distinctively,
Longfellow, of the domestic affections.
He Is the poet of the household, of the
fireside, of the universal home feeling.
The infinite tenderness and patience, the
pathos, aud the beauty, of daily life, OF
familiar emotion, and the common scene,
these are the significance OF that verse
whose beautiful and simple melody,
softly murmuring for more than forty
years, made the singer the most widely
beloved of living men. George Willtanl
Cnrtss, IN RarPsr's Magazine.

those sagacious animals-when young
