and edited by Willis Il. Bierly, Of

down so clearly that there can he nc

OUR SCHOOLS.
In Thorough Working Order
Proposed improvements.

There Ia probably no better evidences
ofthe substantial prosperity Of our young
city than the fiourishinR condition OF the
public schools at the present time. What
ever the causes, We are compelled to mo-
tice the introduction os improved meth
ods of teaching and to give due credit to
the benefits gained by more thorough
ness in discipline and in study. We are
surely much indebted to our energetic
teachers, Judge Cowan and Miss Geer,
for earnest efforts in this regard. They
are laboring hard and under disadvan-
tages, but without single complaint.
II there is one thing of higher import
ance to the city than another 1t is that we
have good schools. A town with poor
schools is good one to emigrate from.
| The rising generation will soon be called
upon to take our places in business aud
society, and 1t is of the utmost import
ance that they be fitted for higher In
stoad ofa lower plane of thought and &C.
ton. Education" SAYS Paley, "in the
most extensive sense Of the word, may
comprehend every preparation that IL
made In our youth for the sequel of our
lives"
In visiting tho school Yesterday, the
writer was greatly surprised to find In
one room tifty-tive bright and busy pu-
pills Of school age, and in another room
the advanced experimentation forty
students, altogether more than tilling the
seats in the building. In many seats
made for two children tlise are crowd
ed, and some of the classes are much too
large 10 be conducted with advantage.
The studies of hygiene and physiology
have not yet beon taken up for want Of
time, and of course thorough grading
of the school IL ut present impossible.
The number enrolled Is now but two less
than one hundred, and it Is expected that
at least twenty more will apply for ad-
mission before the first day of December.
The present school term began two
| months earlier than that Of last winter,
| and yet the records show tho attendance
to I've twice that of the first month of last
year.
Ifa school is not properly graded the
| teacher will have too many classes and
will only have time to hear them recite,
consequently he would be only hcarer
and not II teacher. The fewer classes
teacher has tho better justice he can do
to each class, and rs Il natural result tho
pupils will take more interest in their
work and will surely acquire more.
There is great need therefore, TINT some
| thing be done ut once to relieve the crowd
cd rooms and classes and make closer
grading possible.
We understand that the school board
have tho matter under consideration and
nothing but the indebtedness incurred in
building whom prices were higher than
at present. deters them from mt once plas-
tering and furnishing one Of the untin-
ished rooms on the second floor Of the
building and employing another teacher.
we need graded school. Go ahead gen-
tlemen; your honest efforts in this direc.
tion will lncct tho approval and support
OF every right minded man, and you
need not listen to any other.

to her death on Oct. "a, 1885, from dis

The Good Deacon in Trouble.

1uo 6OOO DEACON IN ffOuOle.
DR.. S. H. Manly, IL member OF the
firm Of the George I. Hair company, of
Chicago, came up on Tuesdays train to
interview Deacon Powell on tho hotel
register business. The good deacon has
been infringing the copyrights of tho
Hair company by soliciting advertising
for hotel register blotters and having
registers manufactured, and several OF
our hotel keepers were about to be pros.
ecuted by the company for using the
registers. Dr.. Manly found that Powell
had deceived the hotel men by telling
them that the Hair company copyrights
had expired, and he concluded not TO
prosecute If the hotel men would agree
to make no further use of the bogus
registers. Some Of the caravansary
keepers, in turn, insisted that Powell
should return the money no haa obtain
ed for advertising, as they did not want
the citizens who had patronized Powell's 's
peculiar enterprise to be imposed upon.
Thereupon the good deacon gave writ.
ten agreements TO stand between the
advertisers and the hotel keepers, prom
ising to "make all due reparation," by
paying the advertisers rebate if neces-
sary. Powell has been making hand.
some profit out Of the register business
by infringing copyright which has cost
the Hair company large sum Of money.
DR.. Manly has employed an attorney
here to protect the company's interests
in future. One of our hotel men prom.
lses to wear out all his old registers on
the good deacon's head If he makes any
more "breaks" around his house.
