Last weeks Journal contained Il
short letter dated at Morgantown
and signed Cadet" in which the
writer claimed to have discovered
an editorial in the ARGUS attacking
the University. 1t seems that this
would be critic don't know an edi-
torial when he sees it. In the local
columns of the ARGUS we made a
short note Of the great game of foot
ball that was to come of Mt Nor
gantown between the University
Club and team from Washington,
Pa, and simply stated that the for
mer would prob IDLY get some Of the
cOncVit taken out of them. We had
noticed for some time that the Nor
gantOwn papers had been Dragging
about their Club, and the boys
themselves thought they were "bang
up No. l." Now let us see how
our prophecy held out. The great
and much talked of game came of
last Saturday. The Club from
Washington-Jefferson College ar.
rived. The University Club played
them on their own ground and on
ground entirely new to the visiting
Club. ETC. Now what was the re-
suit? Only II TO o in favor Of the
WashingtOn-Jefferson Club. Now
il the home team had any conccit in
them at all and this didn't knock
1t out, then we will give it up. Now
II anyone outside Of lunatic asy-
lum, or someone who ought to be
there, can explain how this little
local Of ours about "a football team
can be construed into q Slap vt
the University" as the Journal
calls it, We would like to bear from
them.

DISTRICT INSTITUTES.

4
Toe schools OF the county are nov
In session and the time is at hand
Tor the organization of District In
stitutes. So FAR In the history Of
Preston county these Institutes
have, with very few exceptions, beer
failures and it will always so con.
tinue until the teachers show by
their presence at these meetings
that they are interested in their
work and have at heart the welfare
of the cause in which they are en-.
gagged.
Teachers say that they are paid
too little for the amount OF labor
performed (; taxpayers, that they
are paid too much. In order that
the latter can learn the work done
by the former, each teacher should
consider himself committee of one
to secure the attendance of school
officers ut these Institutes, invite
them to take part in the exercises.
and come well prepared yourself to
convince those present that you do
perform great work-a work which
all should be interested in and which
cannot successfully be performed
save by those trained for the pur.
pose. The sooner you convince the
people, by the presentation of your
work at these meetings, that you
perform great and laborous work,
the sooner Your salaries will be in
creased. BY thus meeting and de.
Gliding what should and should not
be done in the school-room, putting
your decisions into operation, meet
ing again and telling your expe-
rience, carrying out regularly ar
ranged programs interpreted with
music, thus showing to the people
that you are deeply interested in
your work and the educational and
moral welfare of the peoples chill
dren, you draw arornd you friends
who are willing TO lend q helping
hand and advance teaching to Il
profession. Teachers, in you lie
the success OF the District Insti
tutes In you lie the success of our
schools You should feel the re-
Sponsibility and act accordingly.
The editors Of our county papers
are gentlemen who take deep IN
terest in education, who will aid us
in our work, and, feel sure, will
publish the programs and proceed.

Below is the time and place in
each District for the first
meeting. Let every one of you be
present and take part in the organi-
ration. You should give special
attention to the professional course
of reading and the graded course OF
study:

Because the Journal purpoSely
misinterpreted what we SAID about
Terra Alta newspapers Of the past,
in order to try to injure US, it is no
reason why the Oracle should try to
initiate the Journal. We made no
possible reference to the Journal or
Oracle either in what We said. ANY
one could understand that it re.
fered to the past and 10 tho papers
that had lived and died there. We
have no doubt at All bat that the
Oracle has q large and increasing
circulation, and that the Journal
also has . good list Of patrons at
the Commercial Center" az We
know the ARGUS has, and now

The Principal of the Kingwood
School called at the ARGUS Office
tho other day and explained to our
satisfaction why his school report
was not sent in to this paper. He
was very courteous in the matter,
and disclnimed any intention Of ig-
noring or neglecting the ARGUS or
of being influenced by political pre-
JUDGE, aud on this point in partic-
ular, it seems we were mistaken.

killed one in that vicinity. Some
more Of the boys were out in Hackle-
barney Tuesday, after deer. They
found one. but scared it up so sud

The Town Council has stopped
the sale Of these little toy pistols.
which all the boys were getting and
making a nuisance Of. They were
using them 80 oarelessly that horses
were liable to be frightened on the
streets, and were, in one or two in .
stances, and for fear o. runaway
and perhaps damage suit, the
Council wisely prohibited the sale
or use of them in the Corporation,
and right here we arise to enquire,
whether all kinds Of shooting is not
prohibited in the Corporate limits,
and specially shooting matches and
shooting at marks, etc. T?

The Chicago delegation to the Amer
