Farmer writes a letter this
week endorsing Capt. J. w
t.ooerts fer the next legislature.
Capt. Roberts is a good and true
nen-one In whom everybody has
confidence, and, il he should con
sent to make the race, viii be hard
to beat.
The candidates for the next leg
lslature are loath to give them
serves away on the dog question.
Make them step up and commit
themselves one way or the ether.
his same question is the biggest
thing that will be to contend With.
the next session, as it has been in
the past.
Dir. Jackson, of Albany, came
over last Monday to doctor our
ertesian well. lie is now at work
on the we'll and thinks he will be
able to get the piping out. Mr..
jackson has won the reputation Of
beng a man of great pluck and
tortitude and has never been
known, yet, to give up well as a
failure. For this reason we be.
lieve hewill succeed.
The breezy guaro is still going
to the country. We will venture
the assertion that there are more
commercial fertilizers sold IN this
market than in any other town, Of
the same size, in the state. And,
furthermore, that there is more
natural material in the county OF
Terrell for making composfs-
home made fertilizers-and less
utilized, than in any other county
in the state, regardless of size.
This IS faltering step, friends,
to true prosperity.
Col Crouch, our most efficient
tax collector, and q prominent
truck farmer Of this county, says
the birds have done him a great
deal OF damage by pulling up his
young watermelon vines. They
have destroyed about one third of
the stand. He says, furthermore,
that the vines that are left, are
looking very vigorous, and grow
ing off right along. It is some
thing quite unusual for birds to
prey upon young melon vines in
this way.
We emphatically protest against
parties coming into our Office and
carrying of the exchanges, with
out even asking the liberty. We
often never get q chance to open

Jimmie Lowrey showed us, last
Saturday, nearly quart OF cut
worms that he had picked of OF q
small patch Of cabbages. Prof.
Lowrey thinks the chief cause of
the numerous quantity Of this fa-
tai pest is the free use Of chip,
or wood-pile manure, as other
parts of the garden, where it was
not used, is not nearly so badly
infested. Be this as it may, it is
something quite unusual, 50 ca ly,
and we are afraid, Notwithstanding
the very cold winter, and the pre-
dictions Of so many people that
this would be fine year for gar
dens, this display of cut-worms in
dicates a contrary showing.

The Christmas market and supper
given at the Opera House last evening
by the ladies of,St. James Episcopal
church was fairly attended, the receipts
at the door amounting to between $50
and $25, in addition to which a number
of tickets were sold on the street. The
ladies made number of sales of fancy
articles, Of which they had fine display.
A good time was enjoyed, and fine re-
past provided. The full financial result
we have been unable to obtain.
The outlook for lumber is not very ia
vOrable for lumber manufacturers the

From different sections of the state
word comes Of curtailment Of the force
in the woods. In this section Thompson
Smith has broke up enc camp, Walter
Elliot's, discharglng all the men AID it
is reported that his force in the woods
has been reduced in the aggregate near
200 men. The lumber interest is not the
only industry suffering from depression,
from all over the country comes word of
a reduction of wages and decrease of
hands. II may be that the election of
Cleveland has nothing to do with it, but
as the Democrats charged all the ills of
life to the Republican administration,
it is no more than fair that they should
shoulder the responsibility of this in
creased depression and tightening of the
times.

An Interesting Budget From the Ma

Some thing About Indian Education-Excel-
lent Work of the Interior Depart
ment, Etc.

WASHINGTON, Nov. S.-The fiscal year just
passed has been a commendable one in its
developments in the possibilities and prac-
liabilities OF Indian education. The school
year just opening sees nearly Is, 200 little
Indians in school. The report of the Com
missioner of Indian Affairs shows that be-
tween 1900 and 5000 were in school last
year, two.thirds of the number through Gov
ernmental aid and the remainder by State,
church and private assistance. The limited
appropriations for Indian education by the
last Congress are such as to render any con-
siderable increase in the number impossible,
but it is hoped the growth of the system
may be such as TO bring the number up to
the total mentioned above. Few people
realize the excellent work being done by the
Department of the Interior in this regard,
the active workers in the cause being the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs, Hon. Hiram
Price, and the head of the Indian school,
Captain Pratt. So quietly, yet ei-
fectually, has the educational ex-
pertinent been carried on by these
officials and those who have assisted them,
that il is no longer considered an expert
ment but true solution of the Indian
problem" Experience education is what

which is unpleasant to contemplate for one

generation. We don't wish to aid in pro

other hand some persons who have optimis-
tic views on this question, obtained them by
merely shutting their eyes and ears TO evil
dence.
We are warranted by ample facts for every
general assertion, which we have made in
this article. All our States give money
freely for the intellectual education Of chill
dren. Moral education is OF infinitely
greater moment. And whatever can inn
peril the pure soul Of single child should
be sought out and exterpated. II old time
methods WON'T do it, new ones should be
sought out and applied. We now relegate
our part OF this question to parents, teach
ers, clergy, and the religious press. They
have already given it some consideration,
but it deserves far more.

ritory, and the third at Lawrence, Kas. At
the Chilocco and Genoa schools there is
an abundance of land attached to the scools,
and the boys of the former school nave

place have raised 1000 bushels of vege-
tables, zoos bushels of oats, and
5000 bushels of corn. The pupils of the
Carlisle school are taught agriculture car
penterIng, blacksmithing, wagon making,
painting. shoemaking, harness making, tail
oring, tiRsmithing, printing, baking. while
the girls are taught sewing, cooking and
general homework. At the boarding schools
located in and near the Indian agencies and
reservations some of the trades are taught,
while agriculture is a prominent feature.
Nineteen of these schools Commissioner
Price says in his report, teach carpentering,
nine blacksmithing, FIVE shoemaking and
three harnessmaking. The schools have

cation Tor more than century, and it does
not reach the need"
To this quiet modest, Woodworking Chris
tan soldier and gentleman, the cause Of In
dian education and civilization probably
owes more than to any other one man. Less
than ten years ago, when placed IN charge
of lot of vagahond Indians who had
been captured and were to be i'm
prisoned at st. Augustine, Fla, for some
offences, he conceived the idea of attempt
ing to educate them both physically aud
mentally, and by the aid of some philan-
thropic ladies who CHANGED to be wintering
there be carried out the experiment so far a.
to become convinced that the Indian was as
easily educated as the average white or negro
who had mad no better antecedents and op.
portunities, and that the solution of the In-
dian problem lay in the education of the
rising generation in both mental and physi-
cal things, teaching them the methods OF
civilized life and at least the primary ele-
ments of our school education. To make a
long story short the result was the establish
ment of an Indian school at the old Carlisle
Barracks, where the Hessians captured at
Trenton hundred years earlier had been
quartered, and where Fitzhugh Lee in 1868
scattered fire and devastation. This school
had at the date of Captain Pratts last annual
report over 500 Indian pupils, who are
trained in both industrial aud scholastic
lines at the same time, giving portion
of each day to studies and a part to
learning useful trades or occupations,
while many of them are planted OUT
among the white population during
the vacation period between the school
terms. More than this. the success of this
experiment has led to the establishment of
other schools i'll other parts of the country,
