Columbus Day, October "a, 1892.
Message to the Public Schools of America
from the Executive Committee APP
pointed by the Superinten-
dents Of Education.

To the Scholars of the Public Schools of
the United States:
The executive committee of the Columbian
public school celebration sends the follow
ing message:
THE SCHOOLS MAY LEAD.
The 18th of October, 1892, the 400th an
nversary of the discovery of America, 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 signalzed
in every town and village in the Republic by
local celebration of which the public
school Is the center.
The public schools OF the republic will
form the most fitting centers for all these
local celebrations. A national public school
observance simultaneous with the Chicago
exercises will awaken popular interest In
the coming celebration. Far more import
ant is the fact that the public school has the

OUR CONTEMPORARIES.
Pertinent Opinions of the Press of Arkan
 sas and Elsewhere.

Pertinent Opini0ns 0f the Press of Arkan-
 sas and Elsewhere.
 Monroe County Sun: If Cleveland is not nominated. it will be some man who the public have not thought of in connection with the presidency. It cannot be Hill.
 Hot Springs Graphic: The popular slogan in the Arkansas campaign this year will be for railroad commission and against the. placing of convict la Dor on parity with honest, free labor. X few ''scrops, will be interjected, too.
 The hog and hominy question should be upppermost this year in the minds and actions of the Southern farmer Six cent cotton won't make the family pot boil very much, and it should be handled very gingerly.-Arkansas Farmer.
 Fayetteville Democrat: Republican enthusiasm has gone down one half since the withdrawal of Elaine from the presidential contest and it will cont inue to go down as the certainty of IIarrison's nomination becomes more apparent.
 Morrilton Headlight:The people of the south are still drawing their rations the from Northwest. As showing some thing of the extent of the tribute to that section twenty-two cars loaded with flour by one Missouri milling com pany passed through thi, place Mon day morning.
 Little Rock Democrat: Two or three esteemed contemporaries, happily on- ly two or three. have declared fer q ''scrop" campaign in case Powell Clay ton enters tie fight. Without regard to Clay tons action the Democrat is op- posed to politics of the sscropn yaIiety. It prefers campaign Of educston.'
 Arkadelphia Standards: Despite the Napoleonic political generalship of Hill, and the superb strategy displayed in his behalf, it is apparent that the hearts of the great masses North and South cherish deep down in their in- most recesses, sentiments of admira- ton and of pure devotion to your Uncle Grover. He is today first in the hearts of his democratic country-men.
 McCrory Chronicle: County conven- tiOns being held in New York are most all instructing for Hill, while we are for the man that will be nominated in Chicago in June next. Stillit appears to us that Hill has acted not only ad- verse to the interests of the party at large, but contrary to his own best in terests. s'Snap" methods though ap- parently successful must fail ill the end and the man of forethought and sound discretion will never employ them. Lee County Courier: It, is to be hoped that the farmers of Lee county will perfect their organization and accom- plish the end proposed. Less cotton and more hog and hominy.n Let them do that and it will not be long before they become an independent, prosper ous and contented class, MT. Shaul struck the keynote when he said, "that there was too mich politics among them, and the only sub-treasury they should monkey with should be their smokehouses and corn cribs" Yes, cotton planters, that is what you want well filled smokehouses and corn cribs, and then you can laugh at the prices of cotton.

TIE notorious Blaine divorce suit has at last been decided in favor of the plaintiff, Mrs James c. Blaine, jr., who is awarded the custody of her child, 5000 suit money and Sl00 per month alimony. Public sentiment is in sympathy with the ill-used young wife, and the testimony in the case developed how much mischief an able bodied mother-in.law with a shrewish temper and bad heart can accomplish when she buckles down to business in dead earnest. Young Blaine's mother was the cause of all the trouble which led to the application for divorce. The young woman IS to be congratulated upon the severance Of her connection with the Blaine people.

Dissatisfied.

An editor of an exchangge has dis covered the fact that no man seems to be satisfied He says: One man is struggling for justice and another is flying from it. One man is saving mp to build d house; anctI,er Is trying to sell his dwelling for less than cost, to get rid of it, One man is spending all the money he can make in taking girl to the tlieater, and sending her flow CTS in hopes eventually to make her his wife, while his neiglibor is spending all the gold he has to get divorce. One man escapes all the diseases that man is heir to. and gets killed on the rail- road; another goes through half dozen wars without a scratch, and dies oi whoOping cough"

As planned, the road will have two main power stations, with 100 sub-stations, but only three or four stopping stations. Each car will be about l30 feet long, fitted with four bogie trucks, and an electric motor at each end will receive the current through contact wheels running on conducting rails. The ends of the cars. t0 diminish air resistance, will be shaped like those of ship.

He Wears Buchnnan's HIT.

Perhaps the most unique hat in Phil
adelphia is now worn by a car driver,
says the Philadelphia Press. In 1859 it
was purchased in this city by james
buchanan, who was particular as to
what he put upon his head. The hat is
an antique, high black silk affair, with
an artistfcally sloping brim. The great
democratic no-coercioniSt discarded it
after some months use. The tile passed
into the possession of his valet, who
found it much too cavcrnous for per-
sonal utility, so the object rcposed I'M
der decades accumulation of dust in n
Spruce street attic until the Wallets
death. His son then became the owner
of the heirloom, and having n head
larger than the father the cylinder came
occasionally into use. Unfortunately
it was tossed off its possessor's Uranium
by reckless tiremen, who inadvertently
directed q stream of water full on it
during fire. Thus damaged. the hat
was sold for song to the car driver
who now owns it, and he makes use of
the article daily. Inside the tile is still
the hat band, daintily embroidered with
the initials j. b., and considering it's
vicissitudcs the relic is in O very respect
able condition.
