HENRY WoRRALL
Kansas.

Gen. John H. Rice has written let
tiers to the New York Sun and Hart
ford Times vigorously defending
Kansas from the recent ISLANDERS, and
challenges the world to show that
Kansas has threatened reputation or
that her people are not as honest, as
patriotic and as intelligent as those
of any other state or country on the
face of the globe. He says: There
are many millions of dollars invested
in Kansas farm loans that are as good
as government bond-securities
adequate, and every dollar of princi-
pal and interest will be paid. Kan
sas embraces 420 miles east and west.
Some eastern loan agents went out
into western Kansas, and eastern
capitalists entrusted them with mon
ey to loan upon farms where there
were no farms. They loaned the
money upon claims and raw land,
and the security was never adequate.
The loan agents they trusted knew 1t,
but what did they care, when they
were entrusted in Kansas with mil
lions while at their homes they would
not have been entrusted with hum
dreds? And now these men, that SO
placed their money, never tire in
curslng Kansas, and if they loose
anything, their loss is the result Of
their own want of business foresight
and their credulity.
kansas is all right-agriculturally
she Is the garden spot of America.
The land of school-houses, churches
and Sabbath schools. The land of
fruit and fower-redolent with the
fragrance of the garden and the orch
ard; teem1ng with the homes of a
million and a half of intelligent peo-
pie, and pulsating with the VIM and
vigor Of progress. Her prairies are
the great conservatories of nature,
and furnish homes fit for the habita-
ton of the gods. She is populated
with as heightened, intelligent, hon
est moral population as can be found
in this continent, and to charge the
people of Kansas with the crime of
reputation of honest debts or inter-
ference with vested rights. is an I'M
justifable slander.-C Champion.

EDUCATIONAL COLUMN.
EDITED By o. L. SMITH, Co. Supt.

We have received the reports from
Mrs. e. D. Hickenlooper and Della
TOwnsley, OF the Phillipsburg school.
By the time this weeks issue reach
es its readers all the county examine
tions will have been held except the
one at Agra.
Everything seems to indicate a
very large attendance at the coming
Normal. No one who expects to
teach can afford to miss it.
District No. 80, will have a two
months term of school this spring
and summer. The school began on
May 4th, with Miss Minnie Perkins
as teacher.
We notice that Miss Eunice J. Nor
ris, a former teacher of this county,
has been employed as one of the in
structors in the Decatur county insti-
tute.
We have received school reports
from Prof. Wightman and Miss Anna
Hickenlooper, both teachers at Long
Island. We commend these teachers
for their neat and full reports.
We are indebted to Editor j. N.
Curl, of the Long Island Leader, for
courteous interest taken in the exam
ination at that place, and for kindness
shown to us personally while we were
there.
In our examinations at Logan,
Pralrievlew, and Long Island last
week, we met all along with encourage
ing success. There were six appli-
cants at Logan all of whom passed ;
we were assisted there by j. NJ. Tad
lock, w. S. Lappin, and Clara Shurtz
AT Prairieview, there were two appli-
cants both were successful; @. w.
Bowman, @. l. Smith and Miss Ollie
Thomas, were the examining commit
tee there. At Long Island, we had
four applicants there of whom were
successful; w. Wightman, w. T.
Adams and Lyman r. Bayard, were
the examining committee there. At
each of these places all the people
seemed to show a live interest in this
work.

ABOUT Cranks.

Almost every great thing accom-
plished IN the world has been accom-
plished, or at least inaugurated by a
crank, and some cranks are the most
sensible of men. Gallileo was con-
demned as a crank, when he demon
strated the solar system. Benjamin
Franklin was looked upon as a crank,
when he sent his kite up in the air
to catch stay bit of electricity, but
we have harnessed the lightning to
wires over which we talk and make 1t
light our houses, cars, steamships and
perform the work of millions of men,
through this action of Franklin's.
Fulton was called a crank, when he
said he could propel boat by steam
and without sails or oars, yet the ''City
of Paris" made 1864 miles in one day
while crossing the Atlantic. Steph-
enson was called a crank, when he
declared he could make a wagon
move twelve miles an hour on a grow
ed road and yet the powerful engine
of today draws Pullman train of six
cars, weighing a hundred tons, at the
rate of sixty miles an hour. Morse
was called crank, when he declared
he could send a message over a wire
instantaneously for a distance of one
hundred miles, yet we send messages
under the water thlrty-fve hundred
miles. Secretary Chose was called a
crank, when he said he could make
treasury notes pay large part of the
expenses of the war. Yet the green
back is as good as the gold dollar.-Ec

The Debts of the World.

The census bureau has IN course of
preparation a bulletin upon the sub
jet of foreign. national, state and
county Indebtedness. The information
concerning the indebtedness of for
eign countries was furnished by the
proper administrative officers of the
several nations at the request of the
census Office for publication in the re-
ports of the eleventh census, as pre-
liminary to the statistics of the in
debtedness of this country. Only the
totals of foreign indebtedness are
herein stated but great amount of
interesting details concerning the
dates of issue and maturity of the
several loans, the purposes and rates
for which they were issued, and the
present commercial value and the kind
and value of themoney in which they
were negotiated. has been compiled
and will be published in the final re-
port of the eleventh census.
The indebtedness of the world for
1890 and 1880, as far as it has been
possible to collect the data for the
present bulletin, with the amount of
increase or decrease, is as follows in

AS no one is yet authorized to ar
range for the collection of samples
for the proposed display of Kansas
products at the Columbian exposition
and as many of our finest fields of rye
wheat and oats etc, may mature be-
fore an organization can be secured,
1 beg leave very respectfully, to sug-
gest to those having field crops from
which good samples may be selected
to secure the same before harvest,
cutting the straw as near the ground
as possible, and safely store the same
until they may be called for by the
proper committee.
1t is confidently expected that lib
eral premiums will be offered by the
board of managers, when selected. for
samples in straw, of the cereals nam
ed and as the outlook Is now good for
fine crops the samples desired should
be secured as the crops secure. They
should be selected just before harvest
begins, and in quantity sufficient two
good sized bundles of each variety
selected from to meet the require
ments of the board when the premi-
ums may be offered.

I would recommend these exercises.
as they are not only training for the
mental powers, but means by which

is, that of overcoming the timidity

us not however use these exercises as
a mere break in the routine of school
work, neither in snowy entertain

preparing each pupil to ''show Off to
the greatest advantage, but between
these two extremes there is mean of
good work which will tell in the Gull

Variations from Routine Work

Extract from paper read by Miss
Clara Shurtz, of Logan. at the Coun-
ty Association, April 18th:
This subject, as I understand it,
refers to changes from our regular
course of duties. L presume the dut-
les in teaching school might become
as monotonous, if not more so, than
in any other occupation; were it not
for the variety of methods by which
we can vary our work OF course it
is necessary to have a program or an
order of business, as we might call it,
by which we may be guided. The
first on this program SHOULD be our
opening exercises, which might con-
sist of such as,-devotional exercises,
singing, reading, some choice selec-
tions, or committing and reciting
quotations, responsive exercises, etc.
Even IN our daily work we can
avoid monotony, by using different
methods and giving pupils a change
of work. The more variety we can
give to the method of presenting
subject, the greater will be the inter-
est taken in it by the pupils. Each
member of a class cannot be equally
interested in every subject, since 1t is
human nature for each individual to
have his likes and dislikes; therefore,
we find certain members, in nearly
every class, who find the subject dry
and tax the teachers powers of arous-
ing interest and enthusiasm; in such
cases a change of method is often
beneficial. Just when or how often
to make the changes I am not pre-
pared to say, as think that must be
left to the best judgment of the teach
er. For I think we have all found
by experience that children as we'll
as grown people do not all see, think
or act alike. We even need a variety
or different modes of punishment, for
what proves to have a good effect in
one case might do harm in another,
or too much of one kind of punish
ment will be Of no benefit whatever.
(They will get used to it,
The most important thing IN school
work is to keep every pupil busy, but
give variety of work to avoid rest
lessness and stupidity. There are so
many kinds Of busy work, that will
delight the children and will keep
their busy minds and hands out of
mischief while the teacher is engaged
in the work of another class or grade.
My work has been mostly in the IN
graded school. where we have pri-
mary, intermediate, and advanced
pupils, and usually have a great
many classes; therefore, the time is
very often SO limited that it Is impos-
slble to do justice to our pupils. I
have Historical, Geographical, and
Physiology or Temperance cards
which I use in my intermediate and
advanced classes; have found them
great help in creating an interest in
the study of those branches.
1t Ii not best to drop our daily pro-
gram too often, but do think it IN
teresting and profitable to have q
change at times. I usually set apart
the time after the last recess on each
Friday for some special exercises,
varying the nature Of these exercises,
but always try to make them inter
esting and instructive. Every two
weeks these exercises we're Of liter
