The Crop Of 1888.

That this has been an anomalous
spring as regards meteorological con.
ditions none will doubt, and many had
about concluded that the year 1888,
in this particular, would be analogous
to that Of 1916, in which year, it is
said, no actual summer occurred. But
some sections suffered less by the ano.
malous weather than Others. In the
South and West violent winds and
destructive tornadoes, as well as hail
storms, occurred frequently during the
months Of April and May. Sandwich.

In or article last week on the

ent Graded School bill:
We assert without fear of contri.
diction that the idea Of tile present

that large hearted able and public
spirited citizen Prof. s. +. Tomlinson,
who asked Mr. Green at the fret Of
the session 10 introduce the bill. Mr.
6. promised 10 do 80. The matter was
postponed until after the middle Of
the session. Mr.. q. came to Durham
and Mr.. r. asked him why he hal not
introduced the Graded School bill 4;
he replied that he coull not draw the
bill, and asked Mr.. T. 10 draft it for
him. Mr.. T. told him that he mr.. g.
could draw IL, to examine 0therGr d.
ed School acts and copy. the leading
features, but 10 insert the main feat.

Now what can be the trouble
Betwixt these folks and me?
Has God or Nature said must

The weakest may be right.
Life may be but a sort of test
To fit us to go higher,
