er or Peter Cooper dared TO venture. Not
only would the wealth and credit, and
power, and honor of the United States lift
its money above every fear or doubt OF de.

nation the United States legal tenders would
stand, NOT only the peer of the gold jos

would become the true type of The money Of

of money, and hence constituting it actual
money in the fullest sense Of the term, he
either does not perceive that his logic
utterly destroys his assertion, or he iuggles
with language TO deceive the unwary. All
thinkers are bound to see the force Of the
logic and discredit the author. Verify, the
wicked are made 10 praise what they try TO
condemn. Senator Sherman's argument
amounts to this. The government is com.
petent to make our own money by stamping
our credit on it, and we need no corpora
tions to stand between it and the people
like our national banks, but it (the govern
ment) has the power to establish deposit
tories for the convenience Of the people, s.and
for the purpose of commerce and ex-
change" The government having the
omnipotent power TO make and issue money,
it necessarily follows that power is contin-
uous to receive on deposit the money from
the people, and be their custodian, and
reissue it to them again without the inter.
position of private corporations, such as onr
present national banks, which are but
private corporations, with mere pretense
Of government supervision. To word. the
government should act as the peoples
banker as we'll as the maker of their money
and continue to distribute it for them, and
at rate Of interest barely 10 cover cost.
This is the inevitable result that the able
Senator's sound logic leads up to. His
speech stamps him a greeabacker Of the
first water; or rather it proves what is called
greenbackism is the true science of money.
And those who jeer at the Peoples party
demand that the nation should make the
nations money and loan it direct to the
people, only make ridiculous expose OF
their own ignorance of the subject.

LIVING In PEACE.
Avoid Unnecessary Criticism and BE Not
Over Familiar.


Over Familiar.
If people are to live together in peace,
either as members of one family or as
Bojourners under the same roof, they
must not fancy that they are always to
be of the same mind. A thorough con-
viction of the difference of men is tho
great thing to be assured of in social
knowledge. There are various forms Of
virtue and wisdom; why assume that
ours is the best form? Many of the
rules for people living together in
peace follow from the above. For in
stance, not to interfere unreasonably
with others, not to ridicule their tastes,
not to question and requestion their re-
solves, not to indulge in perpetual COM
ment on their proceedings, and to de-
light in their having -other pursuits
than ours, are all based upon thor
ough perception of the simple fact that
they are not we. Another rule for liv-
ing happily with others is, to avoid
having stock subjects of disputation,
around which, from frequent dispute,
there is such growth of angry words,
mortified vanity, and the like, that tho
original subject of difference becomes a
standing subject for quarrel; and there
is tendency in all minor disputes to
drift down to it. Avoid unnecessary
criticism upon those with whom you
live The number of people who have
taken out judges patents for themselves
is very large in any society. Now, it
would be hard for man to live with
another who was always criticising his
actions, even if it were kindly and just
criticism. But these self-elected judges,
like their prototypes, are very apt to
have the persons they judge brought
before them as culprits. Another rule
is not to let familiarity swallow up all
courtesy. Many of us have habit of
saying to those with whom we live
such things as we say about strangers
behind their backs. There is no place,
however, where real politeness is of
more value than where we mostly think
it would be superfuous. You may say
more truth, or speak out more plainly,
to your associates, but not less courte-
ously than you do to strangers. I've
ore never rude to each other at home"
said the eldest daughter of an unusually
happy family. "Mother will not allow
it, She says we shall treat each other
as kindly and considerably as we would
treat visitor" A very simple, natural
regulation, one would say. And yet in
too many houses it is totally disre-
garded. The stronger and coarser ma
ture is allowed to play the tyrant
Rudeness that would not be tolerated
for a moment in ordinary good society
is rampant in the home. Immature is
vented upon ones nearest and dearest;
boorishness is permitted; selfshness
allowed to go unchecked. What won
der that happiness departs when re-
spect and love are driven out?

School Tax,

In communication published in
the Democrat by school commissioner
Mr.. George Biddle, the following
statement occurs.
In the distribution of the school
tax (of Cecil county, 100000 goes
absolutely to the colored schools on
the basis of the total number Of
colored children; then 100000 is
distributed, provided 1t IS all collect
ed. on the basis of all the children,
aUhdte and black. Thus the colored
child is twice counted and the white
once. Let US see how the law works.
School Boards get their money in
July to pay teachers for the term
closing in June or before. They are
forbidded to 60 in debt, yet they do
not know, cannot know how much
they are to receive, for this $500, 900
is only paid If all collected. Again
by counting the colored child twiee,
some of the counties which have q
large number of colored children
receive out of all proportion to those
who have but few. Let me give a
few figures taken from the report of
the State Board of Education for the
year 1890. The last one at my com
mand:
Cecil county had 5,53S different
scholars, and received Of the State

HOW TT HELPED COL. FULLER.

The result of the Republican caucus at
Rutland for the election of delegates to
the State Convention is another illustra-
ton of the fact that even newspaper
prophets are sometimes without honor in
their own country. The Rutland Herald
has been sitting up nights and shouting
itself hoarse in its efforts to discredit
Col. Levi X. Fuller. Nothing has been
too mean for it to say against him or
against any man or newspaper that dared
to speak in his favor. 1t has kept up its
guerilla campaign for months, and If its
charges and insinuations had had any
basis whatever, Col. Fuller would have
been driven out of the field completely ;
but the result was just the reverse of
this. The HeraldS attacks upon Col.
Fuller have only served to strengthen
him, and in Rutland where the Herald
and its record are best known the Re-
publicans not only ignored it, but repu-
dated its influence by electing delega-
ton Instructed to support Col. Fuller for
Governor.
The Herald has said all that could be
said, and more than could be. truthfully
said, against Col. Fuller, and it has met
its reward. Republicans in other parts
of the State will now appreciate, if, in
deed, they were not already aware of,
the character of the opposition to him in
Rutland county, and we shall now ex-
pect to see the party throughout the
State rapidly swing into line for Col.Ful-
ler.-Free Press.

WAS AsToNIsHED AT ONE OF WEB
STEERS MISTAKES

The self-satisfied manner of the lgno-
rant educator" is rare study IN hu-
man nature. In the rural regions 1t ire
quently happens that man whose edu-
cation has been sadly neglected is elect
ed to the position of school director or
member of the school board. He no
sooner secures the credentials OF his
office then he begins to infest the school
room and mix into the practical machln-
cry of education. The results are often
amusing enough to furnish many a
hearty laugh to the overworked peda-
gogue as soon as he is alone and dares to
indulge in little hilarity.
A few weeks ago l visited Graded
school in one of the lesser Indiana
towns. 1t was examination day" and
the president of the School board-a
large pompous old fellow-was present.
1 presume that schoolroom was never SO
quiet before. A reading class was
called, and bright little fellow rose and
in monotone drawled through a para
graph about a massacre in the time OF
Nero.
"Ah! Umr' interrupted the 'educa-
tor" "Will you please have the little
boy read that verse agaln""
The paragraph was given again pre-
cisely as before.
"Ah! uni" exclaimed the wise man,
smiling like a pleased chimpanzee,

The youngster hung his head and
made no reply.

There was painful silence for mo-
ment; then the teacher meekly said,
Excuse me, Mr.. Blank, but the fault is
mine, think, if that word is mispro-
nounced. 1 have told the class to pro-
nounce it 'massa-ker.'
