Paw Paw Public schools.

The public schools of Paw Paw open
Monday, Sept. LIST, and no efforts are
being spared 10y the Board of Education
To make suitable arrangements that this
NAV be the most successful year i'm the
history of the schools. Every young
man and young woman of this vicinity,
realizing the necessity of obtaining an
education superior To that usually given
! in district school, should avail them
selves Of the opportunity now placed
within their reach. Attention is called
to the following;
SCHOOL BUILDING AND GROUNDS.
The union building, erected at n cost
of over S75, 900, is one of the most i'm.
posing edifices of the kind i'm the state.
For convenience of interior arrange
ment, healthfulness of location, and
symmetry of structure, this building
would be difficult to excel while the
beautiful hedge bordering the walks on
every side combines to make the build
ing and grounds a most cheerful and
inviting place for the young
COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT.
Bookkeeping, penmanship and arith-
metic will receive the attention they
properly deserve during the year. In
many high schools penmanship is ig-
nored, while bookkeeping is gone
through with simply because it forms
a part of the required course; but we
are happy to announce that the board
has made provision for the thorough
teaching of these subjects, SO that the
student who completes the course of
the business department of our high
school will be qualified to write up a
set of books intelligently. At present
there is no need of attending business
college elsewhere, but the advantages
to be gained at such "a school may be en-
joyed at home.
COURSES OF STUDY.
The High School is organized with
four courses of study, viz: English
Scientific, Latin and Classical, all of
which have been arranged with refer
ence to corresponding courses i'm the
University of Michigan, and it is expect.
ed that our graduates will be admitted
to the University and other colleges of
the State without examination. The
English course is well arranged To meet
the wants of that large proportion of
pupils who look To the high school for
their entire education. 1t is designed
to give thorough training in English,
mathematics and science, affording an
excellent opportunity for business or
teaching.
While it is desirable that students pur-
sue at least three studies in some one
of the courses; yet this is not obliga-
tory, and those who do not wish to com
plete any of the prescribed courses may,
with the advice and consent of the SUI
perintendent, select any study upon
which they are prepared to enter.
APPARATUS AND LIBRARY.
It would be an injustice to our schools
not to mention in this connection the
splendid outfit in the way of apparatus
for teaching chemistry, physics, astron-
omy and physiology. There are proba-
bly, not dozen schools in the state so
well provided in this respect. We would
be pleased To give list of the more
important pieces, but space forbids;
suffice it to say, however, that there is

favor upon it,"

"Castora is the best remedy for children Of
which am acquainted. hope the day is not
far distant when mothers will consider the real
interest Of their children, and use Castoria in

agents down their Threats, thereby sending

GROVER CLEVELAND.

The results of the election Of Nov.
4th point unerringly to the candidacy
of Grover Cleveland in 1892 for the
Presidency. Heis the great champi-
ON and leader of his party in the cause
of tariff reform. 1t was he who
marked out the course which the Dem
ocratic party should pursue on this
great question, which has just SO nobly
triumphed. He bravely staked his
chances for a second term in the
White House on this issue and lost,
because the farmers of the North,
lacking light on the subject, blindly
followed the Republican party for
what it had done in the past and
i promised to do in the future. The
usurpatory despotism of Reed, the
Haunting, unblushiug venalism of
Quay and the sale of the law making
power into the hands of the trusts by
Mckinley, opened their eyes to the
fact that the G. 0. p. had been be-
trayed into the hands of the enemies
of popular government by its new
leaders and they have administered a
singing rebuke. The cause of tariff
reform will yet triumph and Cleve-
land v i'll bear the Democratic banner
to victory.

Much has been said lately, said
Major E. Willis yesterday, in the
newspapers about the. alleged discov-
cry of nickel ore in Virginia. 1t is
probable, however, that reference is
had to North Carolina, where, / am
reliably informed, nickel ores are to
be found equal to any in Ludbury,
Canada and only excelled by the New
Caledonian deposits The North Car
dina ore analizes II to 80 per cent in
metallic nickel. The deposits are in
Jackson county, N. c., near Webster,
and four miles from the Western
North Carolina railroad. The mine
is said to have an almost inexhausti-
BILE deposit of chronic iron, analyzing
about 30 per cent. of chronic ore.
There is no reason why the United
States supply of nickel should not
come from Nort.l Carolina. The navy
wants million pounds of nickel Gre
for armiag the new fleet, and North
Carolina can furnish it.

[From the Atlanta Constitutional

.~"N-'~'
Saturday mornings Washington
Post prints a highly sensational inter
view with Senator Blackburn, in
which the distinguished Kentuckian
gives graphic account of Secretary
Blaine's announcement of the Nc
Kinley bill before the Senate finance
committee last July.
According to Senator Black burn,
the scene was every bit as exciting as
when, on a memorable occasion, he
blackburn took a New Hampshire
Bill by the ear and banged him about
a senate committee room.
Senator Blackburn says Secretary
Blaine appeared before the committee,
accompanied by William Elroy Cur
tbs, and a bright, bran new silk hat.
He appeared to be in good humor
until Blackburn asked him his opin-
ion of the Mckinley bill, which had
just passed the House. This was the
signal for the outburst.
The Secretary colored up in an in
slant and said.
"This bill is an infamy and an out
rage. 1t is the most shameful meas
ule ever proposed to a civilized peo-
pie. Go on with it, and it will carry
our party to perdition."
Senator Black burn said he suggest
ed that it would be a good thing for
the country if Mr.. Blaine was in the
Senate, SO that the opponents of the
measure might have the benefit of his
assistance.
81 wish / were," was the Secretary
reply. eff so, l would stamp it under
my feet and spit ON, it,
Then advancing towards Senators
Allison and Hale, he snapped his fin
gers under their noses, and with rising
infection, said:
"Go on with your driving idiocy.
and see to what destruction it will lead
the Republican party. Pass this bill,
and in 1892 there will not be man
in the party so beggared as to accept
your nomination for the Presidency
Mr.. Blaine then proceeded to dissect
the bill in a merciless manner, and
when. informed of the SUGAR bounty
clause, which had been added, said:
at isn't true"
Being assured that Senators Nor
rill and Edmunds- had secured such
an amendment, Mr. Blain said:
''It is good sample of the breadth
of their craftsmanship"
"And them" says Senator Black
burn, "the climax came. The Score
tary's new beaver was in easy reach.
With sudden blow he brought his
eliEched hand down on it with such
force as to smash it fatter than a
pancake. and then, seizing the batter
ed chapeau, lie hurled it against the
wall violently. never saw such an
ebullition, but it only emphasized the
deep earnestness of the Secretary"
Blackburn's interview is confirmed
by friends of Senators Allison and
Hale, who told in confidence the
episode at the time it happened. 1t
has caused great sensation, and it
is said Mr.. Blaine's greatest regret is
that he allowed President Harrison 10
coax him into taking the stump for
Mckinley and Quay.

The company will be capitalized at
one million dollars and besides devel-
oping mines and timber they will en-
courage cattle raising and tabacco

TUESDAY MORNING. Nov. IS. 1890.
MIR. SETTLES BOGUS TICKET.

Mr.. Thomas Settle is elected Solici-
tor of this judicial district, but he has
nothing to be proud of in this success.
A victory gained by questionable
means is no victory at all.
Whether Mr.. Settle knew it or not,
a number of votes that went to swell
his majority were secured by trick.
He may be entirely innocent. He
may have known nothing of it. but
there is strong presumption that he
winked at the wrong.
The fsctsar these: In Wilkes and
Allegheny counties Mr.. Settles sup
rorters were provided with tickets
which bore the names of all the Dem :
ocratic candidates forjudges, but at the
bottom, in place ofthe name of w. W..
Bar Der, was substituted the name of
Thomas Settle for Solicitor. These
tickets were put into the hands of un
suspecting voters who wished to vote
the Democratic ticket. 1t was u
fraud, and Mr.. Settle profits by it.
Up to date, it has been ascertained
that % of these bogus tickets were
voted in che precinct in Allegheny
County, 8 IL. ktsuIher a.'d l.. one
rcci"ct il Wilkes. There may have
b.t many h,rs and probably We're.
The bet that this same game was
pia, ed for MFR Settles benefit in Rock
ingham county four years ago indi-
Gates that it is Mr.. Settles favorite
method of carrying the election.
Had he been averse to using such
methods in this election, one word
from him to his allies would have pre-
vented this fraud He knew it had
been practiced by his supporters in
the past and it is not unlikely that he
was aware that the same game would
be resorted to this year He did not
request that it should not be done; it
was done and the result is stain on
Mr.. Settles official character which
we regret to see.
This unfair method was proposed to
Mr.. Barber before the election. A
friend said to him Barber, why not
put your name on the Republican ju
dicial ticket?" Like the true and
honorable man that he is, Mr.. Barber
replied: "No, never. 1t is fraud and
would not be worthy to be Solicitor
should l be guilty of such practice.
intend to do all in my power to warn
the people against this fraud, but if I
am beaten by it, can't help it. 1
will never so disgrace myself and my
party. / would ralter meet defeat
than win a victory by such conduct. F"
= Such were Mr.. Barber's> words.
They embody principle that does
him honor. To 60 down in defeat
with this motto is thousand times
better than to stand in the courts of
this district and, as an officer, help adj
minister that justice which has been
outraged in the election of Mr.. Settle.
We have written of thi, matter
plainly and coolly. The heat of the
campaign has gone by and mems rea-
sons are clearer. We do not write as
a partisan, but as a citizen, and it is
our duty to the people to tell them
that the man whom they have elected
Solicitor owes much of his majority to
fraud.
