The Woonsocket News in comment
ing on the county officers salaries and
now to reduce the expenses, says;
The Office of county Judge is another
worse than useless expense that should
be abolished by the present legislature.
The justices of the peace can do all the
business required.
We are surprised at the above COM
ing from Mr.. Kelley. as it shows a Gull
pable ignorance of the constitution of
South Dakota. Sections l, 10 and % Of
Article V provides for the above Off
GERS and our legislature has no control
over them except TO prescribe their
duties and their salaries. II either
could be abolished, by all means it
should be the justices Of the peace.
We venture the assertion without fear
of successful contradiction, that one
half the cases begun before a justice of
the peace. who could be reached by
three or four miles travel, would never
be begun if the complainant had to
travel fifteen or twenty miles to reach
the county judge. In many instances
attorneys are blameworthy for urging
on seEseless case in the hope Of get
ting fee. Many such cases could be
"suuelched" by a judge, learned in the
law, which would not be by Justice OF
the peace whose only qualification for
the position in many cases is his utter
ignorance of the law and the meaning
OF legal terms.

Our Club List.

We give portion only of our club list
here, but shall furnish all of the lead
ing periodicals at low rates with the
MONITOR. We guarantee to see that
every cluhber gets his first number of
the periodical dubbed for. After that
il there is a failure on the part of the
publisher, or if it is desired to change
the address of the paper, l1rtte the pub
fisher, not us. We will furnish two or
more papers at the prices named, if or
dered at the same time. For the pur-
pose of ascertaining the price call the
MONITOR price $1.5O and deduct the sum
from the price quoted in second column.
The conditions on which dubbed papers
are furnished are that MONITOR arrear-
ages are all paid and advance payment
is made. We send in the name of club
bers about the 28th of each month. We
will send our agent to the post-offices in
the county during the month of Decem-
ber, and will then arrange for periodicals.,
etc. The MONITOR will be sent from
this time to Jan. 1, 1892 for regular price,
S1.50, to new subscribers.
Beside the usual advantages of obtain
ing club papers at very low rates we
shall offer two more inducements this

The common school is Que chief
public institution. 1t is the citadel
of the republic. But the best insti-
tutions do not "run themselves ,
and the better and more important
they are the more carefully they
should be super vised and directed.
The steam-engine is a powerful agent
but it is powerful to Il good end only
when at is inteiligently managed.
This is equally true of the common
school. The republic is not secured
when we have built school houses
and appropriated money for their
support. That is only the beginning.
The security of the republic is found
in taking care that the school houses
are used for their purpose, and the
appropriations devoted to their OBJ
ject. The most impregnable forti-
fications would be useless if unmana-
ed, and the best appointed school
hou ses if they are empty.

Diverting the Orleans County
Grammar School Fund.

Most of the people of this county
are probably aware that bill has
been introduced in the Legislature to
change the law in regard to the dis
position of what is known as the
Grammar school money. We have
not seen the bill, but the object of it
is to put all these moneys into two
schools in the county, namely, to the
Derby academy and the Craftsbury
academy.
If we understand the matter COR
rectly, when the various towns of the
state were chartered certain lots in
each town were set apart for various
religious and educational purposes,
viz. For the use of the first settled
minister in the town, for the support
of the ministry, for the Grammar or
high school of the county, and for, in
some instances, a college. These
lands are exempt from taxation, and
are known as lease lands. The occu-
pants pay no taxes on them, but pay
a small annual rental. The lands set
apart for the support of the ministry
pay lease money into the town treas
ury to be expended for that purpose.
1t is customary to divide this money
up equally among the various church
es of the town. Originally all the
Grammar school money went to the
grammar school or academy first
started, each town paying its share.
Afterwards, when schools and acade-
mics began to multiply, the law was
so changed as to give it TO each acad-
emy. In cases where town did not
maintain grammar or high school,
the right was given to dispose of the
money to such adjoining or other
towns as it chose to assist. This,
we suppose, is the present law. Each
town in this county, either uses the
money which accrues from the lease
lands, or it gives that money to some
school in another town. We think
all the towns in the county with the
exception of, possibly, four, use
the money in the support of their own
academies, or so called high schools.
The sum received from this source in
any single town is small-from thirty
to sixty dollars annually. The OBJ
ject of the proposed new law is to
take this money from the towns in
the south part of the county and give
it to Craftsbury academy, from its
north part and give to Derby
academy. The sum to be thus
divided would, rs the friends
of those schools claim, be sufficient
with other sources of income to main
tain respectable schools in the two
places. Those who oppose the bill
claim that the money by right belongs
to all such towns as maintain acade-
mics or Ligh schools: and that it is
unjust to take the money away from
them. To argue the whole question
of right and public benefit would oc-
cupy too much space and would re-
quire a thorough investigation. In
the most simple form it is about this:
Will the towns of this county give
this money tn the Two academies

Legislative Notes.

The bill of Judge Thompson whic
authorizes the arrest Of a witnes
against whom there is a sEreasonabl
presumption of perjury, is designed
to strengthen the prohibitory law
The arbitrary power whichis created
is given to the judges of the countr,
and supreme courts, who, by thei
position and training, would be the
last persons in the world to abuse
such power. While the court has
the confidence of the people, discre.
tionary power can be given is with
out any fear that it will be improper
ly used. This bill would make the
court directly responsible for the
better enforcement of prohibition.
1t was one of the recommendations
of ex- Governor Dillingham;, who be-
lieves it will work satisfactorily in
preventing the perjury which is now
SO alsaningly common.
A Joint resolution invites Hon.
John w. Steward to address the edu-
cational committee In reference to
the agricultural college question.
The work of the committee on re-
vision of bills is making itself felt
and proving its necessity. Rocom-
mendations of amendment to several
bills read the third time Friday were
adopted.
Judge Thompson was granted two
days leave of absence from the
house for attendance upon the su-
preme court, where he appears as
counsel in several cases. He is the
only member who has had the court
esy to ask to leave.
The educational committee is a
hardworking body. One day last
week it had four sittings, which oc-
cupied four hours, and it averages
two or three sessions a day. 1t was
excused from attending the sessions
of the house this afternoon to consid-
er the agricultural college matters.
A majority of the general commit
tee reported adversely to the weekly
payment bill. A minority, consist
ing Messrs. Squires, Pierce and Ken
yon, presented an extended report,
which was ordered to be printed.
A ladies' reception association was
formed last week, the object of which
is to provide for the management of
the social interests of ladies' week,
now and hereafter. The officers are
and will be: President, the wife of
the acting governor for other officers
the wives of the incumbents of the
state offices.
A bill is to be introduced authorizing
the county of Franklin to construct
2 neg Jail. The old one is defective
and many wish to build a new one at
a cost of $4,000. 1t is doubtful if
the bill passes, as many towns are
heavily bonded for railroads and
other Indebtedness. The legislature,
it is presumed, will endorse what
ever the majority of the county dele
CATION recommends.
The educational committee is en-
gagged in drafting a school bill, and
will have it ready for presentation to
the House at an early day. The
grange sent in petition
praying for the retention of the county
system and more influence
that was expected is being brought
TO bear upon the committee in the
same direction. Yet from talk among
members it would seem that this
branch of the law must certainly go,
out just what change the committee
Will agree upon is subject of wide
speculation the interest felt therein
S again on the increase, and it will
become more so this week.

We hope TO see the high-license bill
defeated by a large majority when it

nearly every republican will oppose
it. If the democrats favor it, let
them have all the honors that can be
won on that side.
