SCHOOL AFFAIRS.
There has been unusual activity ia
school affairs in the past week and two
school houses nave been erected. 1t may
well be imagined many were dissatisfied
because every one could not have school

exhibited spirit Of self-sacrifce, doing
ten times their just part of work. while
others displayed the nei9ht of indifference

THE SUMMER DAYS AT HAND.
The chirEIng cricket, the buzziug flies,
the Yaudy winged insects, the ripe wild

A YEAR OE PEACE.

The outgivings of the old-world rulers
and powers, upon entering upon the
new year, in connection with certain
political features, are accepted as pretty
substantial assurance that the great
fight for which the nations are looking
will be deferred another year at least.
Permanent peace is not deemed possi
bic until the disturbing and persistent
question of the disposition of the East
ern states is determined. If the theory
that Russia is not ready for war, and
cannot get ready this year, is well
based, the other countries will Keep up
their immense armies and strengthen
their war outfit, but not break the
peace. Contingencies not now antici-
pated may precipitate war, but the rea-
sonable presumption is that 1889 will be
one of the years of peace. The fact that
satisfaction and profit might be had on
this side of the water in big war over
there, with good deal of curiosity as to
the effect of the latest devices for de-
stroving armies, will not probably eX-
pedite the collision OF nations.

TO A HIGHER COURT.

The railroad and warehouse commits
sion of Minnesota has addressed COM
munication to the interstate commerce
commission which the GLOBE repro
duceS elsewhere. This letter cites that
the people of Minnesota are dependent
upon nine main railroad companies for
freight and passenger transportation,
that these nine companies have been and
are directly and indirectly violating all
of the vital provisions of the interstate
commerce act. and that from these vio-
lations the people of Minnesota are now
suffering. These nine companies are the
ones doing all interstate business. and
over which the Minnesota commission
has no jurisdiction.
The charges brought against them are
sufficiently radical to lead to the belief
that the state commission is well posted
as to the facts in the case. The general
public for some time, and particularly
the st. Paul jobberS. have had we'll
defined suspicion that many railroads
were paying no attention to the law.
Discovery Of these violations brought
with it no relief, and this letter of
the commission is an appeal to the court
of last resort. The excuse offered by
many roads for their actions, ''that ex-
penseS must be met" is not valid in the
face of law which expressly defines
what these corporations cannot do.
Since it is a law it must be obeyed, and
if it is unjust the course TO be taken is
to repeal it. The people of the country
have not signified that they find the law
unsatisfactory and, until they do, roads
refusing to observe it should suffer the
usual fate of lawbreakers.

Prado's Ghastly Joke.

London Daily Telegraph.
z While waiting for the ::guillotine to do
its CHASTITY work upon him, the con-
,demned murderer, Prado, tried to make
the time pass as pleasantly as possible
in his cell at the Grand Roquette. He
at first stated emphatically that he had
no faith in the success of his appeal
against the verdict of the Court of AS
sizes, but his spirits have risen since
then. 1t is, indeed, said that he has
now great hopes that he will obtain, at
all events, new trial. He has literary
tastes, and seems to think that the OPP
portunity now offered to him for culti-
9atiffg them ought to be turned to good
account. 1t is said that he devOurS
? the lfbooks that compose the prison
library with avidity. and that, when he
is tired of reading. he writes poetry. A
poetical murderer is not an uncommon
phenomenon. PradO, however, is bet
ter smoker than he is a poet, Judging
from the specimen of his muse that has
been published. He smokes twenty-five
cigarettes day, and thinks this number
insufficient. Asked by one of the
iailors if he had still gfudge against
NJ. Guillot- the investigating magis-
trate--Prado replied: No, but detest
his name.' ''Why?" asked the other.
because il forms two-thirds of the
word 'guillotine,'" was the rei0inder.
A singular joke for condemned man.

A.DRY PROSPECT.

Pennsylvania is an immensely con-
servative state, and has never had much
of time over the prohibition business.
However. it now is likely to have red
hot season. 1t is regarded as certain
that the legislature will submit to
popular vote at special election in May
or June, or the regular one next No
vember, prohibitory amendment to
the state constitution. The governor
urges it in his message, and Senator
QUAY has signed petition asking for
such adoption and submission, and his
action is pretty near an instruction to
the Republican majority. The temper
ance forces are organizing in the assur-
ance of such submission, and are conf
dent of carrying the popular vote. 1t
will be something OF novelty to see
liquor selling suppressed in the great
cities. A high license law has largely
reduced the number of saloons, but it is
believed that drinking is as common in
that state as in any other, not excepting
even Maine.

AN INDIAN STATE.

The Indian territory has held out
pretty successfully so far against the
march of civilization, as it is phrased
when the lands are wanted In this
case there are powerful railroad inter
ests, great cattle syndicates and rapa-
cious spectators and land grabbers.
Besides, the settling up of the states all
about has given rise toa commercial de-
mand for the opening of the territory.
The $4,000 Indian possessors can offer
but feeble and temporary barriers to the
combined aggreSsors, and congress will
yield to the pressure without special
regard to the rights of the Indians, who
are civilized and have churches, schools,
newspapers and settled government.
Their own security would seem to be to
adopt the governmental and political
methods of the whites. secure a regular
territorial government and then press
Oh to statehood. 1t is probable they
could effect this if they were not di-
vided among themselves by the preju-
diceS of tribal traditions

When yet the world was young, the prophet
cried,
His lips made pure with living fire of heaven,
ITO us child is born, a son is given.
To plains of peace his ensign sure shall
guide;
Upon his shoulder government shall 5ide /;
And through with str;fes these mortal thrones
be riven.
His word shall work, as in the bread of
heaven,
To free the heart of man from fretful
pride,
From lust of soul or body. and the throng
OF Ianguid ills that seek a tolerance
there
. To gather all the flobleness of love-
Each from his neighbor and Ior Him above,
Until the universe resound with song
For that it be Christs kingdom strong and
fsir.
