A Vocs from the kindergarten.
New York Ledger.
81 suppose 1t would he considered o
melancholy and shocking statement
to the women of this country" said
the teachers of q primary school, "if
/ were to say that nine tenths of the
mothers send their little children to
school and kindergarten quite as
much to get them out of the way as
with any ideas of al educatlona al
nature. The one thing that brothers
me is why mothers can not under
stand or will not, which is quite as
much to the purpose, that they could
have rules and regulations and Ger
tain amount of regularity just as well
as q school teacher.
"At least half OF the trials of the
teaber of q primary school or kinder
garten come from the necessity of I'M
teaching the things which the chill
dren have learned at home. They
have been so systematically taught
whether with or without in
tent matters not, that they can get
most things when they cry for them,
that persistence and screaming and
general fiendishness will accomplish
their purpose, that their natural In.
clinatlon Is to pursue the same course
in school. There seems to be some
thing radically wrong in the earliest
training OF children. That the baby
of months can be taught obedience
and habits of regularity goes without
saying, but to this the fond parent is
usually oblivious. If the consequen
ces stopped with her own care and
convenience, worry and veSatio1,
there are very few people who would
take the trouble to protest: but this
lack of discipline means untold
misery and discomfort to scores of
persons, entire neigh borhoods and
communities, and is, therefore, one of
the deplorable features of home
government"

AN ALABAMA ANARCHIST.

The Alabama lynchers are reported as
having taken from the Jail Harry Hinton.
one OF the Bob Sims gang, and hanged
him. leaving but one of the gang, Neal
Sims, alive. The survivor is a fugitive
and doubtless will be caught speedily and
murdered as were his entire family. Bob
Sims and two members of his gang were
caught and lynched on Christmas dav, and
on January 4, it is reported, laura and
Beatrice, daughters Of Bob Sims, were
lynched by the regulators.
Bob Sims, the leader Of the gang, was a
small farmer in Choetaw. Alabama, where
he operated moonshine distillery, assisted
by his sons and daughters. and on SUNDAYS
preached to his neighbors the peculiar
doctrines OF his so-called religion. The
main feature of this religion was the COM
plete reputation of all allegiance to
human law and an Interpretation of divine
law TO suit the views of himself and his
followers. He insisted that every man
should be governed by his own sense Of
right and wrong without regard to law.
He held that every man had a perfect
right to 90 just as he pleased.
This new prophet Of anarchy soon had
following Of 100 persons among his ignorant
aud superstitious neighbors and regular
weekly meetings were held at the home of
the leader. His three daughters were en-.
thusiastic believers in his teachings. They
had received some education st local
schools. and the entire family were regular
readers OF number of newspapers. The
dangh tiers learned printing, and with
small outfit, purchased by their father.
they established a weekly paper called the
True Way. Ii was devoted entirely to ex-
planning and advocating the doctrines of
the elder Sims. One room of the log house
in which the family lived was used as
printing Office, and the three young
women did all the work on the new paper,
mental and mechanical. Its circulation
was limited 10 the members of the organ
ization.
Bob Sims, his entire family and num-
her Of his most enthusiastic disciples,
have persisted in the effort to practice
snarehIsIn IN Alabama. Sims was mild
hammered man, fanatical on religious sub
lects. He made no attempt 10 conceal his
business, for anarchism was his religion
as he read IL in his Bible and preached il
on Sundays. L. one of his fanatical
moods Sims wrote letters TO the news
The Seattle post-intelligencer. [volume] (Seattle, Wash. Terr. [Wash.]) 1888-1914, 1892-01-21

papers admitting that he was engaged IN
whisky distiiling. declaring that he pro
posed 10 continue IN the business and
stating his purpose to kill any officer
who attempted TO mosest him. Then he
cut out straight path from the road TO
his still and nailed up large signeosrd
bearing this Legend: This path leads
to the still Of Bob Sims. Revenue
officers are invited 20 call -
In August last one of SIMS sons vas
killed and another lynched- Sims was
driven into Mississippi, but returned and
defed his enemies, and opened war, muir
dering the man, who had piloted the OIL
GERS 10 his dissiIlery, and his entire fam
iiy, burning the house over their heads
and shooting the inmates as they tried 30
escape.
Bob Sims was religious monomaniac,
not greatly different from John Brown of
Harper's Ferry fame. He made his Bible
his higher Law IN human affairs and was
lynched in the defense and dissemination
Of his ana-chistic faith. He was crank,
homicidal lunatic of the sort that turned
the first French Revolution into The
Reign of Terror" His views are held and
proclaimed today By the Chicago beer hall
anarchists and By the admirers of the
Russian Krapotkine. A man Of unar-
ranged, sif not deranged mind, was Bob

TOO Much COTTON.

The South is suffering from severe arri-
cultural and business depression, conse-
quent upon the fall in the price of cotton,
due to overproduc,ion. This month cot
ton touched the lowest figures il has ever
known in New York city. Cotton for
March delivery sold below "a cents a
pound. Cotton on the spo. sold for less
than ~ cents pound
The production of cotton for 1880 was
under :, 300. 900 bales. The crop of 1890 en-
eeeded all previous yields in the history Of
the South. and for the first time the 5000
GOO bale mark was reached-indeed, was
passed, the figures OF production exceed
ing sSo0,0oo bales. breaking the best pre-
vious record by over 10000 bales. The
crop Of 1891 has also been enormous. and
IL estimated at $, 49l.o 600 bales, or only leo.-
ooa bales under the unprecedented crop of
ise0.
Two successive years of enormous cot
ton crops has broken the back OF the mar

The lesson is a severe warning 10 the
South TO increase the diversity of its crors.

PROTECTION AND OUR SHIPPING.

The report Of the commissioner Of navi-
CATION 70 the secretary of the treasury
points ont that originally the shipping
policy OF the United States was protective;
that while our American marine began
with only about % per cent. of the total
tonnage of foreign trade, the proportion
increased within six years time to 80 per
cent, and remained there until 1872 Re-
covering from that war, in five years We
again had about 80 per cent. of carriage in
our foreign trade.
The decline in our merchant marine be-
gan in 1876, when congress began 10 take
of protection, and 1t has declined to the
present time. During the low tariff period
of 1873 10 Is42, and is48 to 1851, the Ameri-
can merchantmen continued to perform
smaller and smaller portion of the worlds
carrying trade. But four years of pro-
tectiye tariff interviewed between ISIS and
1851 The decline during near thirty
years of revenue tariff amounted TO over
3StS per cent. of import carriage, and
nearly 10 per cent. of export carriage.
During the war our losses were, of import
carriage. sol per cent, and of export car
rage, 70 per cent. Since the war we have
lost Of import carriage SIS per cent, of ex-
port carriage Il per cent.
