who witnessed it that the results we're

Karst has been engaged in several law

English class might be substituted snd
several members spoke pro and con on the
advisabiiity OF taking Latin from the high
school course in the towns of the state, the
sentiment being in favor of the English
course where only one could be afforded

towns could afford.

preparation for the extra teacher.
superintendent Mulaneaux, of Winneba-
go City, and a superintendent from Wa
SEGA were the next speakers and they
spoke on the Latin question and Superin-
tendent Stewart, of st. Charles, thought
that the question was badly mixed; some
wanted one thing and some another,
and in ST. Charles they did not h.vs Ensjs
lish enough; he would like to secure mole
English studies for the reason that then
they could ask for more Latin. Superin-
tendent Reynolds, of Faribault thought
the high school course should include civil
government, rhetoric and bookkeeping.
In reply to query Supt. Kiehle refer
red to the requirements general course
of studies. He said there was strong
pressure from all the schools for the APP
preparation of $500; if they we're not
stringent in holding the schools to high
standard there would be an intrusion, and
100000 would not be enough to GO around.
The speaker thought that Latin was too
valuable study to give up. He made an
earnest appeal in favor of keeping up the
standard.
Prof. Folwell addressed the meeting on
the subject; he said the purpose of tbs
law was to promote higher education; tie
fund was only intended for this purpose;
the Latin language was the backbone of
all high education; for this reason it had
been placed in the course and it should be
kept right whore it is; he thought no stu
dent should be admitted to the university
unless possessing knowledge of Latin.

State Hf0h Sohoof Bon~d.


At 8 meeting of the State High school
board. city superintendents and high
school principals was held in the state Ii.
brary rooms at 4:3O o'clock. Gov. Hub.
bard presiding.
The subject Of collecting srare records
was first taken up, it being the intention
to try and devise uniform method of col
Letting records. A discussion took pla. Q
during which it YVES unanimously agree d
that uniform blank should be gotten up
Mr. j. 81. Gates, of Anok l. outlined plan
he thought a blank might be printed
leaving space for the date of the admis-
sion of the scholar, his examinations and
the date of his graduation.
A member thought that the old high
school system was only expected to carry
out preparatory course. He thought that
each study should be passed upon sepa-
rately; if pupil finished arithmetic, let
him be examined in that study and that
was the end of it. Another member thought
there should be uniform blanks for month
ly reports.
Supt Kiehle said that the board only
pretended to keep a record of final exam
alton on certain studies, showing the stand
ing in each study. The work of the board
was limited in its character. and yet il
contained the back bone of all the system.
It was the purpose to see that examina-
tions would be promptly made and the re-
turns forwarded.
Supt. Ellis, of Fergus Falls, thought ii
would be more expedient to keep good
local record of the progress of tho pupil;
it would be diff cult to prescribe blank
suited to all the locations.
Supt. West, of Duluth, made remarks to
the same effect. Another speaker was of
the opinion that two blanks should be
kept, one for preparatory pupils and one
for those who are not.
Prof. P. II. Goff, of Wilmar, next spoke
on the system of records az in vogue in the
public schools. He thought there should
be reforms made.
Supt. Wells, of st. Cloud, made some
sensible remarks concerning the practica-
bility of paying more attention to the
study of the English branches and less to
the Latin and foreign languages.
Prof. Lewis, of q. sstings, thought this
was a subject (which had better not be
ventilated.

The Am srican school is what it is BE-
cause it had been made as the American
people; they were not educated by the
state bus by the people themselves.
It was the influential majority of the peo-
pie that built the school house, made the
curriculum and established the system;
every child could receive qualifications to
launch him on the tide of American citi-
zenship. It was settlo1 fact that every
American child should in some way be
given an equal chance. He then proceeded
to define the several grades of education
as recognized by the state, predicting that
the obstructive features of the university,
High school and Normal school would be
developed constantly to higher grade of
usefulness. The invincible obstinacy with
which America refused to acknowledge de-
feat was alluded to most graphically,
and the success of the public school sys-
tenn in spite of opposition was delineated
in a manner which called forth great ap-
plause. The system of education had no.
bly, withstood the vigorous attacks of its
opponents of the past ten years; the pub
lie schools were constantly increasing their
domains of usefulness.

had SO many children been 50 admirably
instructed; never had there been SO many
academical and private schools as at
present. The speaker prophesied that the
battle for the children had been won. He
then alluded to the perils that attack the
system from abroad.
The principal evil he thought was the
opposition to merge nationalities into the
system; the influx of foreigners and the
tendency of those speaking the Teutonic

THE INDIAN WAR.

Latest from the Scene of the TrOubles-Tho
status of the COnbatants.
ST.. LOUIS, Dec. 2S.-The latest from the
Indian territory says the Chicotee party,
in the fight Sunday last, had seven men
killed. and it is thought the Spiochee band
lost as many more. Spiochee and party
have gone into the Cherokee nation and
keep up the disturbance. Reinforcements
are fastening to Okmulkee to protect the
capital. Capt. Bates, with detachment
of United States troops, is also there, and
soldiers have been ordered to Enfala, where
there is good deal of excitement.
Many of the women and children
have been sent away for safety. The
troubles grow out of the old, old, polit-
ical divisions of the tribe into what is
known as the loyal and disloyal parties
during the war. Spiochee is now at the
head of the loyal party, or what has been
known as the Sands faction, and Chicotee
is the principal chief of the nation, and of
course at the head of the party in power,
He has some 800 armed men under him
and Spiochee is said to be nearly as
strong. Both parties are armsd with all
sorts of weapons and seem to be in an
ugly MOOD, but it is thought the United

but there appears to be no statute validat-
ing any such record made before the pass
age of that chapter. An order of
confirmation of guardians sale
adjudicates only that the
sale was legally made and
fairly conducted, and that the
sum bid was not disproportionate to the
value of the property sold, or if dispropor-
tionate that a greater sum cannot be OBJ
tanned. Hence, such order is proof Of no
other facts, or of any proceeding thereto.
AS matter of regularity, the confsca-
ton of guardians sale should precede the
execution of the guardians deed, bat if it
succeeds it the confirmation relates to the
deed and sanctions it.
Section 2, Oh. Is, laws 1864, which pro-
vides that where an order of confirmation
has been made prior to the passage of that
act, no proceedings shall be had to set
aside and vacate the sale after the expira-
ton of two years from such passage, and
that the conveyances of the guardian made
in pursuance of any such shall not, after
the expiration of such two years, be voided
by any court, etc., does not apply to sale

Our thanks are due Mr.. r. H. Jesse,
Dean Of the Faculty for his very kind
and pressing invitation to attend the
Fourth Annual Commencement Exercises
of the Academical Department of the
University of Louisiana, New Orleans,
held at Grunewald Hall last Thursday,
June 18th. We are indeed sorry that We
could not attend. This department of
the college during the session of 1881 80,
has enrolled two hundred and fifty
students, and instruction has been given
in Latin, Greek, English, French, German,
Mathematics, pure and applied, Physics,
Mechanics, General Chemistry and Book
keeping. The lectures in Chemistry and
Physics are fully illustrated by expert
ments with an apparatus that has cost
the University little more than three
thousand dollars, a considerable part of
which was kindly donated. Besides the
diversity of subjects in which instruction
is given the youths attending this de-
partment of the University have the
advantage of being under the tutorship
of professors as efficient as any in the
South, two Of whom are personally
known to us. The University Of Louisi-
ana is the largest as we'll rs one Of the
Oldest institutions in the State, and we
cheerfully recommend it. Our children
should be educated at home where they
can learn the necessities of the State and
he fitted to take their places in after life
in its management, and form those ties
which in manhood prove so strong,
beneficial and useful.
