HOW IT CAME ABOUT.

The first approval OF this suggestion
came from the public school scholars
themselves. When the plan was arst
proposed by the Youths Companion,
January, 1891, thousands Of letters
were received, testifying to the enthus-
iasm with which the scholars re-
sponded.
The Worlds Congress Auxiliary Of
the Columbian Exposition then took
up the proposal, calling upon all the
people OF the Republic to observe the
day In their own localities, and sug-
costing that the public schools be
everywhere the centres Of the celebra-
ton.
The Superintendents OF Education
were the next to recognize the fitness
of giving to the public schools the first
place in this Columbian Anniversary.
At their national convention in Brook
Ign, in February, 1892, they took
charge of the movement, and appoint
ed the undersigned an Executive
Committee TO lead the schools in their

who Gets the Cottonl

Scion Chase, the owner OF Them
Steers, used to ask his fellow citizens
OF Maine Who gets the hayP" South.
ern citizens who want to know WHO
gets the cottonP" or the Doodle, when
cotton rises find an answer in the fol-
lowing story about John H. Inman of
New York and the bulls and bears in
cotton during Il recent boom:
"He was not much of hero till one
day when the cotton market was down
in the dumps with situation much
like that which now prevails there
came sudden change over the markets
movements Prices rose q little.
Bears flushed with long success
deluged buyers with bales by the thou
sand. Upward went the figures; over
board went more bear offerings and
soon on all sides it was recognized that
a battle royal was under way.
Never was the bear contingent more
confident OF advantage. Never seemed
a bull campaign so hopeless. Not the
cotton market alone, but all attending
and related business affairs emphasized
Southern decentralization. Southern
stocks dropped. southern merchants
were bulletined as laggards But
somehow quotations we're perverse; the
impossible calmly happened; cotton
rose daily and rose largely, till the
figures OF the day when the turn came
were more than doubled. Through
all this campaign few were made able
to locate the master OF this manipula-
ton, but in the end there was no
doubt about his identity In less than
couple OF months John H. Inman
made 81, 900 900" -Chicago Sentinel.

The first thing to do is to determine,
when you read this message, that you
will do all you can to induce your
school to enter the celebration. Then
show this message to your teachers;
every patriotic teacher will be glad

the cause does not cause them bliss.

This is an agricultural country and
all the business OF the country no
'matter what kind it is Is dependent
upon the prosperity Of agriculture for
its final success. We are surprised
that there are 80 few OF the business
men OF the country who have ever
blamed the right fellows for our hard
times. Most of the blame for
want Of prosperity in the country
has been saddled upon the
shoulders OF the farmer. He has been
fed on advice ever since we can re-
member and is still blamed and adj
vised Just as he was fourteen or fifteen
years ago, when there was a panic
after the demOnetization OF silver and
the hard times followed on after.
These business men do all their
gathering information from the
enemies Of labor and Of course their
eyes are turned away from the true
source Of all their troubles The
capitalists OF the world who live by
the misfortunes OF the working man
are the real cause OF the hard times
that have fallen in the way Of the In
dustrial classes. 1t is their interest
to keep up the same systems Of dis
tribution and finance, and they have
spent so much time educating the
people in false systems Of political
economy that it may take some years
and few more financial crashes along
with wholesale bankruptcy Of the
country to force the business men tc
change teachers and study for them
selves as the farmers have done. -

How the People Are TricLed Out of Their
Rights and Liberties.

The people ought to have some
rights which are worthy to be r.
spected. This seems to be a year
when the bosses are utterly lnditfer-
ent to the wishes OF the masses. They
rely on trlckery and political legerde-
main rather than on the patriotism
and good sense OF the people. The
great founders and teachers OF demo-
cracy were ignoramuses in comparison
with Jones' Screws and Hodgson.
Glass and men of that stamp. Our
Democratic forefathers- wisest
who ever lived-relied on the honest
and unselfish common people" The
whole theory of our government is
based upon the proposition that the
people are the source OF all power
says the Southern Alliance Farmer
and are capable OF self-govern-
ment These modern statesmen,
while they pirate about 'Jeffersonian
democracy show by Their con-
duct that they do not trust
the people; care nothing for their
good opinions and believe in strong
government which will overawe the
masses and keep the bosses in Office.
Times are out of Joint indeed, when
these things can be, and the people
tamely submit to taunts and insults;
to the indignity of being called putri-
flying masses, conspirators pirates,
outlaws and scallawags because for.
sooth, they have been exercising the
constitutional right Of petitioning con-
gress to enact some measure by which
legitimately to put more money into
circulation and thereby give relief to
the taX-ridden and debt hardened
people. All this, too, in the face of
the fact that congress for the past
twenty years has given away millions
of acres of the public domain
to corporations and syndicates, and
devoted nearly the whole time in legls-
latlng for capitalists, trusts and com
bines, while it has turned a deaf ear
to the cries OF the people for relief.
When they ask for bread they are
given stone.
The injustice OF the course, which
certain subsidized newspapers are
pursuing towards the people is more
apparent when we recollect that con-
gress alone has the power to coin
money and emit bills of credit. In
short it has the authority to make
and put in circulation all the money
needed by the people in their bust
ness operations. No man in this
country can create money. If he at
tempts to do so he is promptly sent
to the penitentiary. The government
exercises the exclusive right to say
what shall pass current as a circulat-
ing medium. With less than seven
dollars per capita on which to do the
business OF this great country it is an
outrage that congress does not relieve
the people in some constitutional and
adequate way. If our congressman
are incapable of devising some intelli-
gent and practical plan. then turn
them out and send new men in their
places.
1t takes a new broom TO sweep
clean. Let the good work begin as
soon as possible. Keep your eye on
congressional aspirants, who are run
ming with the machine.

They Are See-SnwInr.

There is one class OF British officials

saw now going on receives no atten-
ton. The United States government
every week or so purchases some-
thing like quarter of a million ster-
ling of silver at the current market
price, with the avowed object of rails
ing the price OF silver Exactly
every week the secretary OF state for
India sells nearly half millions
worth Of silver as money not at the
market price but invariably below the
market quotation. 1t is impossible
under such conditions that any other
result than that which happens could

THE PROGRAMME

A programme will be furnished by
the Executive Committee. 1t will be
simple and adapted TO any school, yet
so arranged that more elaborate exer-
cises may be added wherever desired,
The aim OF this official program will
be that certain leading exercises may
be the same in every school in the
Republic; and that at least In one
feature the Chicago program and the
school program may be identical.
In due time this executive committee
will make more definite suggestions on
methods Of celebration through the
superintendent OF education and
through the press.

THE LOCAL COMMITTEE.


The duty OF your committee will
first DO to interest the citizens and to
prepare the school. PROFESSIONS may
be arranged, The veterans, both
north and south, will gladly be escorts
for the school. The other military
civic and religious organizations oil
each town will lend their aid II they
see that the schools are determined
that the celebration shall be worthy
OF the day. The local press will be
the most valuable OF all supports; and
the earliest effort Of your local COM
mittee should be to enlist It's sympathy
and request It's cooperation. Ask
your local paper TO print this mes
sage.
On October 18th the stars and stripes
should be floating from every school
house in the Republic.
1t is the hope Of the friends Of a
common school education that not one
public school in the United States will
allow itself TO be left out in this most
memorial celebration.

THE SCHOOLS MAY LEAD.

The 18th Of October, 1892, the 4OOth
Anniversary Of the discovery Of Ameri-
ca, ought to be observed everywhere
in America.
The day will be marked In Chicago
by the dedication OF the Columbian
Exposition grounds The day also
may be signslized in every town and
village in the Republic by a local
celebration Of which the public school
is the centre.
The public schools Of the Republic
will form the most fitting centres for
all these local celebrations. A ma
tional public school observance stimuli
taneous with the Chicago exercises
will awaken popular interest in the
coming exposition. Far more i'm
portant is the fact that the public
school has the right to occupy the
mostprominent place in the celebra-
ton. The public school is the
characteristic institution which links
all neighberhoods together, and can
thus furnish common bond for a
national celebration. The public
school is the ripe fruit OF the four
centuries Of American civilization.
The public school to-day sways the
hundred years to come.

Have We ANY I.awsY

Robert M. Clarke, for the past
few weeks has been giving the peo-
pie whole lot of legal advice, free
gratis. He now claims that the
Legislature, elect, is not a legal body
because the apportionment of rep
resentatives is not according to the
Constitution. He also believes that
a recount can be made of the vote
on the Constitutional Convention
question, and that a convention can
be called at once when the Legisla-
ture meets. For some years past
lawyers have had considerable to do
with framing the laws of the State,
and it begins to look as though they
had done all they could to make
business for themselves. If it is a
possible thing the coming Legisla-
lure should call a Constitutional
convention and straighten out the
complicated mess of laws (?) that
cluttef up our Statutes.

cation to the TINES
On Sept 10th Mr.. Hawlcy, Of

said: Harry Feelings is dead and
Bob. Ames sent me mp for trimmings
/ for his coffin. Put them in as cheap
as you can, for the county has got
to bury him" l put the cheapest
trimmings l had up, and filled the
bill. While l was doing this Mr..
Matlock came in and said: "Mrs.
Hoye, Harry Feelings is dead; he
has no clothes, let me have a suit
for him and charge it to the county,
but if the county does not pay for
it, / will"
Now, Mr.. Ames said he put my
bill for trimmings in with his for
labor. The Board of County Com
missioners allowed him $35. When
I asked for pay for my goods he
said he would pay me Ga cents on
on the dollar. When / asked Mr..
Matlock he advised me to sue the
county, but said when he could get
around he would pay me. He is,
however, sick yet, and may have to
be buried by the county also.
Now, when the present County
Com missioners were looking for re-
election they called on me and
apologized for the expenset they had
put me to just to please my neigh
bors out here. They also told that
if l was not treated justly to let
them know. But now they have
served me just the same kind of a
trick.
l sent in my bill, which was a
reasonable one, and they refuse to
pay me one cent for my goods.
