bill which he refused to do, and
prophesied dire calamity if the bill
passed. The bill passed without
the calamity.
Mr.. Cleveland said in his letter
TO Mr. Warner, that tthe revival Of
business enterprises and prosperity,
so ardently desired and apparently
so near, would be hopelessly post
poned. Gold would be Withdrawn

pressed, would suller still further

purchasing power Of every so-called
dollar paid into the hand of toll"
This letter was written in February,
1885, and on the End of March fol
lowing, Mr.. Hewitt, of New York,
made a speech in the house in favor
OF suspending the coinage of silver
dollars, in which he declared that
the silver initiation point had al |

the suspension of gold. The mon.

Mr.. Manning sent treasurer Jordan
to New York to borrow few mil

Mr.. Foster went to New York III
the last month of Harrison's adj
ministration, on similar errand,
ten years after Mr.. Jordan's visit,
both pleading with the banks to
come to the help Of the government.
When Mr.. Jordan went to New
York the treasury had run down to
sl15,000,000. When Mr.FOster made

A Timely Warninn.

This is not time at which anyone
interested in the south can afford
to minco matters. IL is plainly ap-
parent that if the crop about to be
planted is greater than that of the

result will be ruinous to the people
growing the staple, and will bring
infinite harm on all southern indus

Several conventions have already
been held and resolutions passed TO
reduce the acreage, and other meet.
ing will probably follow, but what
is needed is concerted action from
every state, not meeting to talk,
but to determine upon some feasible
plan by which the acreage may be
kept down and then to act upon il.
This is a matter in which the COM
mission merchant and factor are
the prime movers, and whatever is
done should be, in fact must be,
with their cooperation. The factor
determines the size OF the crop by
the amount he advances to the farm

their clients to increase their acre.

that only one result can follow, and
that is ruin. -Manufacturer's Rec

"From all sections Of the southern
cotton belt," says the Philadelphia
Record, "comes reports Of largely
increased cotton acreage and it
looks as if the farmers were deter
mined TO have 8 cent cotton again,
even If they should be the only suf-
ferers by it. Meanwhile these farm
ers, who have failed to profit bY ex-
perience, are exchanging two pounds
Of cotton for one pound of Western
meat, and are even buying lprge
quantities Of northern and western
hay. What fools these particular
mortals be"

The most common error made by
teacher in trying to control class
is that he endeavOrs 10 suppress
natural tendencies, instead Of guild
ing and directing them. The influ-
ence OF teacher over class should
be Of the same nature that n man
should use in governing himself.
Human activities and emotions are
natural forces, and can no more be
destroyed than any of the physical
forces. The will Of man, however,
can guide them in the right direc-
tion-can insist that they shall be
creators, not destroyers. When a
teacher arouses the interest of his
class in some intellectual pursuit,
by showing interest in it himself,
and suggesting ways in which it is
connected with the subjects in which
the class is already interested, he
directs so much energy, which
would otherwise probably be ex-
pended in mischief, into useful
channel. Personal influence should
always be expended in directing ac-
tivity, not in endeavoring to sup
press it-Ex.

month. Ii is pertinent, to say that
in certain quarters, the charge is
made, that the public schools "will
not run much longer" as the aboIi-
ton OF the saloons destroyed large
part of the school revenues.
Both of the assertions, begotten
Of an ignorance Of the facts, or pur-
posely misstated, are easily, very
easily, refuted. In the frst place,
the school fund has not been the
beneficiary 81 dollar Of the liquor
tax since 1891. Next, the cutting
out Of this source Of revenue, in.
stead Of depicting the fund, has ab.

fund Of 1SS9-00 was $40. 800 that
Of 1890 91 was s11,30O; that Of
1912 was $14, 100; that for the
present term will be about the same,

will enable the superintendent to
keep the schools in operation until
