home, where he conducted private
school for the remainder of his stern
and upright life.
The school was taught during 1874
by Rev. VIM. Crozier. Since that year
the present historian has not lived in
the neighborhood and has not kept
track of the teachers that have come
and gone.
For many years the old house was
used as a church and for all public
meetings; and the history of the liter
ary societies and the festivals that
have been carried ON in it, would fill a
volume. These few words have simp-
1y been written as tribute to the
memory of an old school house which
has fulfilled its day and is now to be
torn down.

NOTICE.

1t is our intention to send out each
week for the next month or two, about
two hundred sample copies of THE
REGISTER. These will he addressed
to prominent citizens throughout the
county whom we would like to add to
our regular list of subscribers. Any
one receiving copy therefore, who
has not ordered the same. need not be
afraid to take it from the office, for he
will not be asked to pay for it until he
does order it. We simply take this
method of extending our circulation,
instead of sending out a canvasser, and
hope that those receiving copy will
consider it a polite invitation to read,
examine and compare, and ifthe paper
suits them, send us an order to place
their name upon the regular list.

GENERAL RICE's SPEECH.

In spite of the threatening weather
and the heavy rain of last Tuesday
evening, the Opera House was
comfortably filled with voters who
had come out to hear General J. HI.
Rice, of the Fort Scott Monitor, dis
cuss the political issues of the day. +
The General was introduced by Mr..
Foust in neat little speech and was
heartily welcomed by the audience.
The first part of his speech was de-
voted to comparison of the records of
the republican and democratic parties,
and of the records of the respective
candidates. The comparison was made
in calm, dispassionate manner, but
it left the democratic party very little
to stand on. Gen. Rice is no milk and
water politician. He has no use for a
fence of any kind. What he believes
he believes with his whole heart, and
says in strong words. He has the rich
stores of forty years Of political expert
ence to draw from, and he paints his
pictures in strong colors.
The latter part of his speech was
devoted to a discussion of the tariff
and was a mastery argument in favor
of the policy of protection. The Gen
eral spoke nearly two hours, COM
handing the closest attention of his
audience throughout, and on the
whole, the speech was one of the best
we will have here this campaign.

After all the result Of the late fight is on
ly surrender of the North to the South.
the matter had been left to the loyal people
of the country it would not have been done
probably yet for many years, but those whc
saved the nation saw fit when the war wa,
over to restore TO the South all it had for
feited thereby leaving themselve ut disad
vantage. They not only did that but the,
gave the negro n vote and the South repre-
sentation on that vote and then failed t.
protect the negro in that right. The Re
publican party has always treated the Dem
ocratic party as though the men who com.
pose it were just as generous and forgivine
ms the Republicans themselves and there j,
just where thoy have continually Numbered

the people of the South for the Republican
party, and it is intense, and with them the
Curtises, Bcechers, st. Johns, of the North
and you have the logical result.

NO DOUBT OF 1T.

Do our readers reinemter that when Texa
was admitted into the Union there WAS II
contitutional guarantee that the Uniteo
States should never become liable for III,
debt of Texas. Notwithstanding this. III,
claimants were at the doors of Congress for
years, and finally got their pay from, our Gov.
eminent. This is evidence that the confed
crates may be right in believing that their
money W Il some time be worth rs much a,
greenbacks, that their slaves will ultimately
be paid for, and their debts paid. Thore !,
no danger Of this being done under tn,
first Democratic administration that come,
into power, for there is Republican Senat,
and even if the Democrats get full control
of all branches of the Government, and the
Supreme court, il will not be done ut first.
But who can say that the time will not come
when all will be paid, Ms in the case of the
Texas debt -Commonwealth.
There is no doubt Of it. OF course il
would be rash and impoli;ic TO do it RICH,
away or TO attempt it, but the Democratic
platform upon which Cleveland and Hen
bricks ran in speaking of the matter OF
pensions makes no distinction between union
and rebel soldiers. Did you never notice its
pecular wording.

Rev. John II. Barrows, formerly of Kan

Chicago: ITO teach that religion must moi
interfere with political affairs was to teal
the crown from the head of King Jesus. Ii
was right to teach in political life that re-
ligion and politics could not be separated
They needed to teach that Sinai was not an
extinct volcano. 1t was right to teach fror,
the pulpit and to denounce the infamy OF
public officials, who caused people to stand
four hours in lire at the ballot-box. and then
be deprived Of the dearest right of citizen

have it leave its transcedental mysticism and

Kingman county is still on the boom, IS
is evidenced By the new buildings springing

leaving the rude structures put upon their
farms when they first established their
claims and are now holding forth in houses
that would be grand credit to the older
counties of the state. This, Of course. is q
hne indication Of general prosperity in the
county. Kingman is the "Queen City" Of
the Minnesota valley. and is still in four

nearing completion. A new school house il
