Teachers, Examinations.

Mn. EDIToR:-I wish through your pa
per TO make some comments on the ques-
tioning of applicants for certificates 10
teach in our district schools.
The writer well remembers his exper.
ience forty.two years ago in getting bis
first certificate that qualified him to teach
in this county. The branches taught
were the same, the examiners wese Of ster
ling integrity, and many OF them our besI
educators, as Prof Peck, Of 0berlin, who
could not be bribed. Now at that time
four hours was sufficient to find out how
many Of the class were qualified TO teach
school Of forty pupils. Now the session,
are from a. m. to p. m, making the
session seven hours long, without recess
with Argus eyes watching every motion Of
the busy workers, striving TO solve prob
lens puzzles, enigmas and catch ques
tions, many Of which cannot be answered
from the text books now used IN our grad
ed schools. No wonder, / thought, when
/ looked over the questions put before the
class in Oberlin last week, that so small q
per cent. get certificates. A young lady
must be walking encyclopaedia to be
any where near perfect The old adage,
that q fool can ask questions a wise man
can't answer, is appliable here.
Itis fact that large proportion ofthe
applicants for teachers certificates are
graduates from our graded schools, and
many OF them from the schools Of which
the examiner is, or has been principal.
Now Mr.. Examiner did you do your duty
In the schools and are you doing your
duty nowf Let your questions be plain
and as near as possible to conform TO the
information found in our text books and
there will be no complaint.
Now let us take one or two questions
that were before the class In oberlin last
week: "How many men did Mr.. Lincoln
call for, and how soon did he get them ~
The number Is not given in the text book.
Greeley's History Of the Rebellion says Il
was 10000. The text book says there
were 10000 troops at the breaking out of
the war. -'How many were enlisted In all
during the war; The text book Is again
silent, but II we are the possessor Of H.
brary we find the answer 10 be nearly ore
million and half. Now what / protest
against Is going outside Of the information
found In our text books TO question appli-
cants for teachers Of our district schools.
The practical knowledge Of men and
things will come TO them as they grow In
experience. The knowledge gained In
our schools, with the aid Of text books
and competent teachers. Is what they start
out 10 life with. ''Be ye wise as,serpents

DESTRUCTION OF TWO VILLAGES

The account of the destruction of the
villages of Johnson's Bayou and Radford,
on the Louisiana side, six miles from Sa-
bine Pass, is fully as appalling as that of
the latter place. Out of population of
l,200 So were lost, making, with Sabine
Pass, total of 1872 souls. At Johnson's
Bayou the waters rose ten feet above the
highest ridge, and twenty-five feet above
sea level. Noticeable in the death list is
the great proportion of children, due to the
fact that the inno6ents were less able to
look out for ir own safety than their
elders.
In this connection, and with the horrors
of the Sabine disaster fresh before the
state, let us appeal to the people
of Austin to Immediately do whatsoever
they can to help the unfortunate and ut
terly destitute sufferers. We owe it to
them as an absolute imperative and high
duty. Let funds and supplies be at once
forwarded from this, the capital of the
state, to the committee at Beaumont, com
posed of prominent and leading citizens
known here in Austin as gentlemen of
probity and honor.
Remember the people of Sabine Pass
have lost everything; not only their
homes, but everything they possessed on
earih-even to their wearing apparel.
Let something be done at once. We
should recollect that none of us-how-
ever wealthy-are beyond the reach of
a misfortune as great and terrible as that
which has befallen the people of Sabine

SOME ANCIENT HISTORY.

Ancient history is the name which is
now applied to the bringing up of mat
ters which are past, and which as n rule,
ale distasteful to many. While the rule
that the dead past should bury its dead"
is an excellent one generally speaking,
still at times in order to get proper en-
derstanding of the present, the past must
be reviewed. There have been charges
made lately that the ticket put in the
field by the democratic party is the off
spring of the dark lantern meetings and
primaries held at times and places I'M
known to the public generally.
Again, it is said that the ticket does not
represent a majority of the democratic
votes. The STATESMAN proposes to re-
view a little of the past to show the falsity
of these two charges. The primaries were
held on Saturday, June 3, and for weeks
before that date the public were advertised
of both the place and time of the meeting.
Is there anything of dark lanternism in
that? Every democrat could attend and
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1886-10-21

participate and, in fact, 1t was their duty
to do so. On the night of the meeting
there we're very few prominent democrats
who were absent from the primaries, and,
again remarked that the numbers
who turned out and took part were very
large, in some instances the entire num-
Der of the voting democrats being pres
ent, and taking part. Several tickets
we're out for delegates, and every one
worked for the success of his own ideas
or men. There could be no dark lantern
work, and if there was, and any democrat
was aware of it, it was his duty to de-
nounce it then and there, but we heard of
no such denunciation. All went there to
win, and many whose pet schemes were
overturned had no idea of beng defeated,
and until after the result was known were
perfectly confident and not until then did
as they term it. 1t required
majority of the voters to send
any delegate to the county convention and
therefore as matter of fact if major
ity of delegates supported certain man
Or measure it was also supported by a
majority of the voters, because their dele
gates were chosen to represent them. AS
a further safe guard a two-thirds majority
in the convention was required to nomi-
nate candidate, and fortiori, a major
ity at least of the voters were represented
i'll the selections. These reviews serve to
show how absurd are the charges that are
being spread abroad, and if anyone thinks
that a majority of the voting democrats
did not father the democratic ticket his
mind will be disabused November Sd.

CURE FOR PILES.

Piles are frequently preceded by a
sense of weight IN the back, loins and
lower part of the abdomen, causing the
patient to suppose he has some af-
lection of the kidneys or neighboring Or
gans. At times, symptoms of Indigestion
are present, fatulency, uneasiness of the
stomach, etc. A moisture like perspira-
ton, producing very disagreeable itch
ing, after getting warm, is a common at
tendant. Blind, Bleeding and Itching
Piles yield at once to the application of

THE PEOPLE.
Quite large crowd, many of whom
were democrats, assembled in front of the
temporary capitol last night TO hear the
address of
HON. A. NJ. COCHRAN,
of Dallas, republican candidate for COY
ernor. Mr.. Cochran is a graceful and
fluent speaker, and, from republican
standpoint last night, made very good
speech. He arraigned the democratic
party and charged that because of the
mismanagement of the democratic leaders
the public domain of Texas had been
FILTERED away. He advocated the Blair bill,
and declared that in his opinion it would
become law. He favored the free coin
age of silver, and the sale of all lands,
both watered and dry, to actual settlers.
He insisted that the lease law should be
repealed, and approved Chinese immigra
ton. He warmly advocated the election
OF Mr.. Cochran, but signally failed to tell
how or when the republican party would
remedy the alleged evils which he laid at
the democratic door He ticked the col
ored population, fattered the Farmers
Alliance and the knights of Labor. He
was listened to patiently and attentively,
but while pleasing his hearers, he could
not conceal his dread of the idea of being
