The Way to Elect IA President.

No sooner have the results of the
late democratic victory throughout
the land BEEN gathered, considered
and accepted, than are the forecasts
for the next presidential election
commenced. Leaders and organ.

are springIng up all over the land,
and every hamlet has its village

Views and policies, and ideas and
opinions are heritages Of the Amer
lean people, and possessions they
cannot be deprived of, yet, a great
or amount of moderation in their
expression might tend to a more
certain amount of good in the end.
The expressed will of the people is
sufficiently plain, and never before
mOrs.pla;nly expressed than in the
recent election; hence, does the
Jine OF policy become distinctly

victorious. With all the views, pol

and art. Upon a close calculation
| fad that the whole amount we
would draw flom the public fund
would not pay the current expenses
of the department which would be
devoted entirely to the public
school. l propose here to repre-
sent the situation by presenting a
dialogue, the substance Of which
has been presented by me in per
son so Prof. Prewitt.
PRoF. PREWITT; Messrs. Lowrey &
Berry, you can have the benefit of
the public school fund for your pat
rons on the following conditions:
You shall furnish your patrons the
use of your building, with all the
comforts and convenience thereof
five months free of charge. In ad-
IditiOn to this you shall spend more
money for teachers than you shall
receive for tuition, and throw in
your own time, five months Tor
nothing, leaving all the RESPONSE
billties and taking al; the risk of
your property. And don't forget,
That you must furnish all the fuel,
have good fires made, keep your
pupils warm, and yet publish be-
forehand that there shall be me
extra charge made"
LowREY & BERRY: Prof. Prewitt,
this is unjust. Our patrons are
willing to compensate Vi for the
use and risk of our property, and
for our labor. They are honest
people, and are not only willing
but desire to compensate us. Here
tofore, when schools were near
them that were entirely free, they
have sent to US of their own prefer.
ence, saying the advantages were
worth more han the extra charge.
Let them have the privilege Of do
ing as they please about it-that is
all We ask.
PROF. PREwITT: No, gentlemen,
they shall have no such privilege.
You shall have no share of the pub
lie fund unless you will make nc
: extra charge,
LowREY AND BERRY: But, Prot.
Prewitt, the teachers Of 81 schools
in the county are under no such re-
striction. They, under the state
law, may receive additional com.
p~ensation." Just give US the
schools as you give schools TO those
81 teachers laying no restriction
upon US. By what authority de
you put restrictions on Eve schools
that you do not put on the other 81
Just give us the school without re
