luick eye, cool brain

quick eye, cool brain and
intrepid daring have been able to lead
them in paths which at the outset they
nevsr dreamed of folio wing. The great
charter which the barons OF England
wrung from the unwilling wretch King
John contained a declaration of the
rights OF the people which it took five
hundred years to establish. Yet for oil
these weary years the fact of its being in
the charter was a beacon light of hope,
and . powerful wsapon in the hands OF
rsformers towards the actual accomplish
msnt of said rights. Again, ever since
human courts of law have been in e1is-
tence they have reiterated the divine
law promulgated from Sinai "Thou
shalt not kill" Follow the daily crime
record of this and other civilized coun-
tries. Can any one doubt that murder
ers do much abound? Yet does any one
doubt that this law should stand on our
statute books? We have also Law
against stealing, yet have not found
locks unnecessary. Because there are
many thieves does any one say that the
laws against theft might as well be re-.
pealed for they are not enforced? A
thousand times no! But christian
preachers, teachers. morallsts every
where are preaching, teaching, moral
izing against the will and for the en-
forcement Of law.
The most sanguine advocate of pro
hibition does not for q moment dream
thet with tho enactment of prohibition,
law temperance work may end. I
only gives . fair field in which to work
This point has been finely illustrated b,

A cordial Invitation is hereby extend
ed to the friends OF educational work in
this and adjoining counties, tue invita-
tiou, however. having especial reference
10 the tef cheers OF Yankton county to
in institute work at the court
honss III the CITY Of Yankton for six
Jays commencing Monday. August the
10th, at 3 a.. m.
propose IN the work 1T this institute
to mainly discuss the relation Of each of
Its parts to the aggregate work OF the
school.
i have over observed that the most
earnest teacher " Invariably his own
most earnest student. 1t is the iliumin-
alton Of this light gathered from your
careful study, teachers, while / ask you
now TO shed yer the work OF erecting
this institute to the profession.
Wherever practicable teachers will
in o lew days be reached by special
invitation, outlining the work When
this 10 not feasible l will feel profound
vitation by favoring me with their
names.
Public patronage, parental duty, the
work of the officer, the office Of the
teacher. the relation OF the pupil and
the applicability of the law are o few of
the subjects which should Interchange
tEeir saIutaticns with the years ex-
perience. TO this end I have projected
this meeting Of our teachers to discuss
with me my criticisms, favorable or
otherwise, on their school work in the
respective districts to which they
were severally assigned In the year now
closing. During my recent inspection
which ] e~ndeayored to make cOmplete 1
at least, succeeded in making my OBJ.
servations minute. Hence this call.
I have excellent reasons for requiring
limit prospective applicants for schools
in Yankton county during the approach
ing year should attend this ~conyocation
of our tenchers. III has been proposed
to me to make it arch the avenue to
every school in my charge. i do not
believe this necessary. though willing to
sslieve il wise. and therefore and thus
earnestly invite the attendance which ]
am unwilling to enforce.
As teachers. local or otherwise, likely
to lend yonr presence to the institute OF
your talents to its aid, permit me to
urge you to At ontje send in your names
for registration. Z am Authorized to
guarantee the hospitallties OF our
hospitabIe people to attendants and

I mnBt invite your experience to my nid
in the work Of erecting this institute to
the profession. Very truly your friend

A correspondent asks us how many
crosses it will take to make a thorough
bred COW, and what she will be called
when she is thoroughbred, that is
we suppose, which breed will she be-
long to. This question is II common
one. 1t comes about every so often,
and we expect it always will. In re-
ply to our correspondent we would
say that thoroughbred cannot be
produced by crossing. A thorough
bred can come only from IL thorough
bred sire and thoroughbred dam.
We may cross and create Il new breed,
which we shall accomplish when we
have bred long enough to fix charac-
teristics. Whenever we have an ami
NAL that will reproduce itself, we
have created u breed, and If we choose
| to name it. we have II thoroughbred of
the new breed. But it Is not q
thoroughbred of either of the breeds
that we have used for crossing. Ii

The fear expressed in the issue of
the Advocate noting the formation Of
the Millers' Union and the Grain
buyers Associations, that these organ
izations would be found inimical to
the interests of the producers, is beng
quickly verified. Though the grain
crop of 1886 has but Just commenced
to move it is already being demons
trated that the two associations are
banded together, and that by their
"wheel within a wheel" style of doing
business, they are much more power
full than the old M;llers' Association,
which they succeeded, and that their
aim and the result of their compina-
ton is to virtually destroy all COM

From private letter recently re-
ceived from one of the prominent
residents of st. Paul, we quote as fol-
lows: "The Governor OF this state,
who is to be chief magistrate of more
than million of people, should be
selected, not because he wants the of
flee, but because other people
want him to haye it. The fact that a
man seeks it, after the manner of the
modern candidate, is complete evi-
dence to my mind that he is unworthy
of it.
The man chosen for this high posi-
tion should be strong, self reliant,
just and not a self seeker. In the dis
charge of his high functions he should
be dead to every ambitious suggestion
concerning himself; beyond the Sc
ductions of wealth and powerful to
Withstand public clamor-know the
right and dare maintain it.
His oath is to support the constitu-
ton and execute the laws and he must
do this for all the people alike, giving
no preference to any section, interest
or division of men. ,..s
Let us all hope that upon one side
or the other such man may be
nominated, for whom all just men
can yote.'

There is lust as much sense in sa7

There is just as much sense in say
ing that watch is worth only what
the metal within it will bring as
bullion. This fire-test estimatee is
the biggest kind of a humbug and
sensible people should stop crying it.
Because gold dollar contains hun
dred cents worth of gold, while a
silver dollar contains but IS or 80 cents
worth is no reason why they should
not each represent the same amount
as coin, for the simple reason that it
is coin value, and not bullion
value that we are after. If it is the
bullion value only that determines
their worth then there is nothing in
the government status that is back of
them and nothing of money nature
about them. The way to measure
money is by money standard and
not by the yard, pound or gallon.

The Minneapolis Tribune has a
sensible editorial upon the shooting
of Frank FraL sworth by Frank Mead.
Among other things 1t says: 1.-THE
event has moral which no young
man can afford to treat with levity.
1t has of course several morals. For
example, both men were, to some ex-
tent at least, under the influence of
liquor. Alcohol excites the passions
and dulls the judgement. If Mead
had tasted no liquor he would not
have yielded to the frenzy ofrage. If
Farnsworth had not tasted liquor, he
would have abstained from giving
Mead such provocation. But the
temperance lesson is not the particu-
lar one which this sad tragedy teaches.
Against law, against reason, against
common sense, against the peace and
well-being of society, Mead was carry
ing concealed upon his person dead
ly weapon. The wickedness eff such a
practice is only exceeded by its alb
surdity. The citizen of orderly COM
munities, who has no evil designs
against the lives or property of his
neighbors, has no more use for a re-
volver habitually in his pocket than
for Winchester rifle on his shoulder
as he walks the streets, or a great
broadsword dangling at his side.
Half-grown boys whose imaginations
have been perverted by vile novels of
crime in cities and of outIawry on
the frontier, regard it as the proper
thing to carry revolvers. But this is
because the tough rather than the
gentleman is the ideal to which they
aspire. 1t is difficult to imagine how
a person who is otherwise a gentle
man can be guilty of SO vulgar and
suspicious a practice,-one which al
lies him with the disorerly and crim-
nails classes
