4 Convention Over the Picturesque and
Coauettish Village.

PULASKI. VA. Jan. i5.--Just as l
feared, the Courthouse fight is begin
ing TO be characterized by offensive
personalities and the exhibition Of bad
temper. Pulaski is not a very large
county, and the people who live In II
should keep on good terms, as they
must Of necessity be continually jostline
against each other. A family row is most
to be deprecated. or course, no one in
itiated this unfortunate mode or war
fare. but somehow IT had beginning,
and though still a child has great capa-
city Of lung and liver How pleasant it
is FOR brethren to dwell together in
unity.
Pulaski is nothing daunted, however. b.
attacks made upon her from within her
corporate limits or without but goes on
about the work of opening new streets
in paving sidewalks. and building new
homes, just as though profound peace
and contentment reigned from Dora"
to the home Of Columbus" who, like
the great discoverer came from the
East and settled on the western border
OF our corporate limits.
The sale Of intoxicants i'm this local
option stronghold has been on the in
crease Of late. and so bold has been the
gard that some Of our most ardent tenn
perance workers are beginning TO lose
confidence in prohibitory enactmeats.
Our people were greatly shocked on
Saturday last, when a Telegram an
nounced that the Senate Committee on
Towns and Counties had refused 10 re-
port the bill already passed by the
House In which the citizens OF this
county were allowed the poor privilege
OF settling, by vote, a purely local mat
ter.
Dora" furnace. as before stated, IS
located in East Pulaski, and is the
nucleus OF a picturesque and very bust
ness-like village. This Is a Virginia en-
terprise, put in motion by Virginia mon
ey. controlled by Virginia minds and
muscle, and is a prospective portion
OF the city Of Pulaski.
If Dora" is allowed to go. Dude
Hill may want TO follow, and then
ALTOONA Heights" and then North Pu-
iaski, and then Locust HILL" and we
may be left all centre and no clrcum-
ference. Let the Legislature confine
themselves 10 the good work OF building
up and consume no time in the hurtfu
work of putting down.

Get Up to Date.

These are days when school directors
heads buzz with echoing suggestions
for the improvement of the public
schools. With curriculums already so
overcrowded that scarcely anything
gets the study that it deserves, it re-
quires some hardihood to propose an
addition to the list of subjects ordained
for juvenile investigation. But others
evince this hardihood; why shouldn't
we?
1t occurs to US, in the course of ran
dom turning of the pages of this years
compactly edited Smull's hand book,
that there are many things in that
book which the average citizen of
Pennsylvania ought to but doesn't
know; things which are certainly of
as much temporal importance to him
as, let us say, the nebular hypothesis
or the speculations of Newton upon
the cause of the apples fall. The stars
will shine just as brightly, whether or
not we all know that the illimitable
universe is filled with cosmic dust; and
apples fell long before and long after
the English mathematician, on
drowsy afternoon, was hit on the head
by thelaw of gravitation, But not all
of us, unfortunately, can vote an intel
ligent ticket at the next election with
out understanding something of the
revised Baker law and knowing por-
ton, at least, of the constitution of our
state.
There were a lot of jolly old fellows
in Homer's time, and it doesn't hurt
us a bit to read about them, in the
Greek if we can, and in the limping
English translations if we must; but
after all, human nature today is the
same as it was then, and we could
learn just as much about it, besides
saving several centuries of time, by
studying, instead, the living Hectors
and Achillesses and Priams and Helens
who figure materially in the affairs of
Ammo Domini, 1894. Ac'ean daily pa
per and a well-bound copy of Smull
would, no doubt, look strange in a
schoolroom beside the classic bards of
Rome and ancient Illium, or in the
company of the learned metaphysi-
clans and quacks who befogged the
people of the middle ages; yet why
shouldn't they have an equal right
there?
Tallie Morgan wants singing added
to the public school curriculum. We
want Smull. 1t is for the public to
choose between us.
