Kansas towns have a peculiar
faculty of getting into trouble not
withstanding the fact that they are
not made by "looking upon the wine
when it is red" The recent difficulty
at Axtell, Kan, where a Methodist
minister endeavored to preach against
the catholics, although in Catholic
community, despite of warnings not
to do so, was a disgrace as much to
the minister as to the mob which pre-
vented him from preaching. The
world of religion, it is true, has made
rapid strides in its treatment of the
different sects composing it, but there
is courtesy, if nothing else, which
must necessarily be observed if peace
is entirely kept. The act of the
Methodist minister in persisting In
speaking against the Catholics, i'll
Catholic community, was neither
seemly or called for aud showed a
spirit of malicious assertion which was
not in accordance with the teachings
of Christ. On the other hand, the
Catholics representing one Of the most
powerful bodies in the world, could
we'll have afforded to let the Meth.
odist minister abuse them since in
this enlightened age, religious intoler-
ance cuts but a very unimportant
figure in the shaping of belief, either
for or against certain creed.

Several new students have entered the
past week. They are getting nicely start
ed in their school work.
The past week hiss been the week of
cur monthly examination. The pupils
did good word as a school, and show by
their examination papers that they studied
hard during the past mouth. ..
We have two classes in rapid calcula-
ton. One from 7:30 p. M. to Sis p. m. and
the other from 8;l5 to 9 p. m. These class
es are most wonderful in their rapid work.
Anyone interested in practical work would
do we'll to visit these classes. We are
glad 10 have any one visit our school at
any time, and We promise you q rare treat
if you will honor US with your presence
for an evening or two.
There is no accomplishment q young
man can possess, that will give him success,
equal to good handwriting. Every letter
note or business paper, written elegantly,
wins favorable thoughts of the writer. 1t
is q constant advertisement, and brings one
to the notice of hundreds of business men,
and Its possesor never lacks employm ent.
No trade which young man can possess
can compare in lis benefit
10 an elegant handwriting, for
while there are hundreds with trades who
are idle, those who write we'll are kept
busy. Business men who advertise for
assistants require applicants to address
them in their own handwriting also,
boy wanted who writes a good hand, etc.,
is often seen, and why this is true is owing
to the fact that only few make il a BUSH
ness of becoming so. Writing as taught In
common schools uniformly fastens uDon
pupils cr:mped and scrambling style,
while under the skillful training of pro-
fessionsl penman a dashing and beautiful
style is secured. The presence of teacher
who writes with freedom and beauty is a
wonderful aid and incentive to the pupil,
and without such aid thousands fail.

The subject of free text books for
schools is one that has been agitated
for years and despite of the fact that
many of the leading newspapers of
the country denounce the idea, yet
the people have awakened to the be-
lief that there can be no free schools
without free text books, for the in
PRODUCTION of this system can be
briefly stated as follows First. Ii
effects a saving of time Second. 1t
secures better classification. Third. 1t
effects a saving of expense. Fourth.
1t cultivates in the people the habit
of respect for public property. Fifth.
1t secures uniformity of text books.
Sixth. Itsecures TO TIE schools better
books and appliances and larger
variety of them, and these lead the
way TO greater fiexibili'y in the work
of the school room. Seventh. 1t In.
creases school attendance and removes
caste distinctions. An exchange re-
ferring to the matter, says:
"The question of the textbooks has
been a rotten one for years as the
boards ofeducation in nearly all the
cities are controlled by the syndicate
of school book mel. This syndicate
consists of Van Antwerp, Bragg &
Co., D. Appleton q Co., Ivison,
Blackman, Taylor Il Co., and A. S.
Barns & Co. These compact houses
have parcelled out the country among
themselves and one house is not al
lowed to cut into the territory or en-
ter into competition with another
house. The trust is bound together
by strong penalties for the violation
of any of their rules and under their
jurisdiction school boards have only
apparently the right to say which
book shall or shall not be used
in the schools under their jurisdic-
ton. When the trust was formed
the price Of books was advanced over
so per cent. and for years the people
have been compelled topay thousands
of dollars into the treasury of this
corporation. The octopus is of course
fighting the free book idea, for the
reason that if it was adopted the
board of education would not dare to
pay the prices demanded by this
house when better books can be oh.

Gently passed upon case of this kind
and sent the man to the penitentiary
for year. The man was real estate
agent and represented to one of his
customers, a widow, that he could
sell her land for 5000. He sold it for
that amount and a team of horses and
a wagon besides. He told her that
he could get nothing but the wagon
and horses and she accepted them,
making q deed to him. He re.
decided 1t and pocketed the cash. On
the trial it was proven that scch
transactions were common and re-

The Dillon, Montana Tribune, a
little but bright paper, speaking of the
votes cast at the recent election in
Deer county, that State says aptly:
eve do not mean to say these men
voted illegally for we no not know,
but we do assert as our opinion that
any mortal being who cannot read the
ballot he votes, or who knows abso-
lutely nothing about our language,
cannot exercise his franchise with
any degree Of intelligence. Our land
is becoming flooded by class of for.
eigners who never cav a ballot until
they landed upon Americas soil and
who are as ignorant of the require
ment of our noble union, as a babe is
of the science of chemistry. We have
no objection to their coming, for
our land is broad and there is room,
but they should fnot be allowed to
cast a ballot upon which the destiny
of the nation depends when they don't
know any thiug about it."
The time is coming when the Trib-
une's ideas will strike deep in Ameri-
can soil, and men will be compelled
to understand what the exercise Of
their franchise means, and there will
be intelligent comprehension of much
that is now, too often. a dead letter.
