The Republican meeting at the
opera house last Friday evening wa-
very satisfactory in every respect.
The room was filed with people,
mostly men of mature age DESTROYS
OF having the Issues Of the day pre-
scented by well-knowu speakers.
These were Dwight Thatcher, Mr..
Kellogg, the attorney general, and
Mr.. winans, the superintendent of
public instruction. They made short
speeches in the order named. and
cheered the hearts of Republicans
with their array OF convincing facts,
logical deductions and sensible sUg-
gestIons. Although there was ma
attempt at spresd-esgle methods,
the audience broke into frequent and
irrepressible applause when some
particularly pointed and pungent
thought WAS uttered, aud went away
thoroughly pleased with the feast
Of reason OF which they had par
taken. The principal theme dis
cussed was that of resubmissiOn, and
the friends of that movement, II they
were fair men, could not well have
failed To see the utter untenableness
OF their position. There was left
absolutely no reasonable ground for
them to stand upon. We do not care
at this time to enter upon q long re-
port Of the speech, iussmuch a. some
Of the matter contained in them had
already been published in condensed
form in this paper. We close with
reference only to the eulogy Mr..
Thatcher paid 10 Col. Phillips, our
candidate Tor congress. with whom
the speaker had been acquainted
many years, and with WHOSE course
la public life he had been familiar
The speakers words on this subject
were heartily apPlsuded, showing
that the people Of Salina, knowing
our congressional nominee thor
oughly, were fully prepared to coin
eide n ith the speaker.

FARMERS In JAPAN.
Distressing Scenes Arising from the High
Price of Rice.


The following letter from KOCH. Japan
received by Mr. J. c. Griman, of Rapdan
Va. will be Of interest:
The most talked about thing now is the
tdistrcss in the country over the high price
Of rice. There are thousands Of people on
the verge of starvation. and in many places
the people are even starving to death.
A man was found dead near the river.
and another in the castle grounds. We
hear OF the most distressing eases on all
sides, the trouble being with many that the '
will not tell any one that they have moth
ing and are starving.
\ man here will die in The midst of plenty
because he has no mean, Of buying food
and can get no work. There is great trou-
bic in many places where the head Of the
house is sick.
The girls in a school near here found "a
sick man with three children. lie had sold
everything ne had, even a. clothing: be bad
only one shirt. They found that NJ had had
nothing 10 eat for three DAYS. The papers
say that In Osaka there are ten thousand
living on grass and weeds or bran Of barley
or rice. What adds to the trouble is that
TIE barley crop Is II "A great degree fail.
ure on account OF the rains.
We have bought one ''poku" (about fl.
teen bushels) Of rice and made little tickets
for one plat eacn and given these to careful
Christians. who will give them to really
needy people.
When mans life can be saved for
less than cent and half "A dag.
what condition a people must be in when
men are diving in the midst of plenty fos
less than two cents worth of rice.
There Is plenty TO eat, only money Is
needed 10 buy il.
Rice is higher by double than usual. and
consequently other things have risen IN
proportion.
There are five months yet b come before
the new crop comes in, and with il good
deal OF suffering and starvation.

THE VIRGINIA sCHOoLMAsTER.

I'm his address on the history Of Virginia
schools before and after the Revolution, de-
Iiyered before the Society of the Alumni OF
the University Of Virginia, Prof. W. Cor
don McCabe has paid a most eloquent and
interesting tribute TO the Virginia school,
master Of the past. Never before was SO
appreciative and discriminating a sketch
OF his character drawn or a more detailed
and loving account OF his work given. In
the pages Of this small pamphlet, which
displays such full and minute knowledge
OF the subject, the Virginia schoOlmaster Of
the old DAYS reappears, breathing, animal
tel figure, endowed with all the attributes
o. life and with his hopes and ambitions
laid bare. II is fortunate that the general
history OF the class 10 which he belonged is
preserved in 50 admirable, SO charming n
form as that in which it has been embodied
by Prof. McCabc.
The general impression left upon the
mind by this address Is that it would be
difficult TO lind, in the past annals Of the
State, class more entitled u the gratitude
aud respectful consideration Of the Virgin.
ians than the schoolmasters, beginning
with the Rev. Archibald Campbell, the pre-
\ccptor OF Marshall and Monroe, and com
ing down 10 the famous Colemans, of
Concord and Hanover Academies. They in
cluded among their number very many

most vigorous characters, men actuated moi
pniy by a conscientious regard for the duty
(hich they owed their pupils, but also by
\deepcst devotion to their profession in
spite OF tie obscurity in which 50 many
were compelled to run their careers. Their
work was little less important in moulding
the characters and forming the dispositions
ofthe Young virginians OF the past than the
moral influence which was exercised over
the latter by their parents.
When the future historian Of Virginia
comes TO analyze all the forces that have
made her so great in the past, he will dwell
with special interest and appreciation on
the work Of the masters Of her academies
and schools. Il will he noble tradition Of
learning impaired and lofty principles n-

And 1t is on this moral mineral, thi-luA'

secret, that so many enterprises OF all soris

rascal, backed by papa and mamma
begins y cheat for commenced
ment MEDALS and honors. And honest
merit ibewldered to find itself, for some
unkn1 IN reason, left out. In the colleges

ties are practiced and taught. And over and
over again the orators, medalists, and Off
c.rs are in some cases only successful
scbemers, luc ky politicians in embryo.
And when we pass out into the world,
we have to own that "mOney answers all
things" and that everything-from the
Office of the Postmaster-General down to the
office OF justice of the peace-has got to be
paid for in one way or another. And shame
OF all shames, the country has te-know,
that large number Of its Senators have
hagrantly bought and paid for their places.
When this tendency has developed, there
will be but one conclusion. Public honors
will cease to be honorable, and the true
man will shrink from the place that puts
him under suspicion. He does not care to
be classed with knaves. lie will not share
honors when more of them are burlesque
And he will fall back on the divine ques-
ton, "IIow can We which seek honor one Of
another, expect the glory that comes OF
