ports the December school appor-
tionment, which should have been
sent out on January 1st), will be

The December apportionment is
based upon the same reports the
May apportionment was, the April
census. Why the necessity of re-
ports, when no reports I due!
But the journal is, of course, bet
ter posted than its sly excusing of
the delay would indicate. The
schools need the money urgently,
and it occurs to us that the treas
urer ought to get his feet under
him and his cash in hand, and the
December apportionment should be
forthcoming instanter, if it has not
gone out at this writing.

AMONG the somewhat startling
remarks made at the recent Jack
son day festivities in Omaha by
Editor Hitchcock of the World
Herald were the following: flaws
for the enrichment Of the few at
the expense Of the many, no mat
ter under what pretense, have no
place in civilized government, and
least of all in our land Of freedom.
The bloodiest revolution and the
most terrible political m
known to history were the direct
outcome Of an attempt in France
to maintain side by side in the
same nation a privileged class at
the expense Of the people. The
Frenchmen would not stand it,and
much less will the Americans en-
dure it. Strangely enough, the
French revolution followed closely
upon the heels Of the glorious
reign Of a French monarch, under
whom the apparent prosperity OF
France was so great as to win for
the period the title of the Angus
tine age of French history. But
so unequally were the fruits OF
that wonderful prosperity distrib-
uted that the people in a bloody
revolution wiped out the DEGREES
which created the privileged and
unprivileged classes a m o n g
Frenchmen.

Tho Veterans at Barley.

James Laird post,G g. A. r., held
its annual public meeting at Bart
ley, last Saturday afternoon and
evening. There was a large attend
ance, and the old veterans enjoyed
a memorable day. The hall was
appropriately decorated with flags
for the occasion.
The opening devotional exercises
were led by Judge G. W. Beck OF
Indianola, after which Commander
J. E. Hathorn made one Of his
happy addresses introducing the
Hon. Tom Majors, who discoursed
in his usual popular vein to the
delectation Of his appreciative aud
fence. Tom always carries the boys
with him on such occasions.
The audience was delighted by
the music furnished by Rev. W. M.
Taylor and family, Frank Hodgkin
and wife, and w. w. Lemasters.
A pleasant social time closed the
afternoon meeting.
The evening meeting was a sort
of an experience meeting, and a
crowded hall enjoyed the reminis-
cences and stories related.
Tom Majors, J. S. Kikendall,
J. G. Gammill, Judge Welty, Dean
McBrien Of Orleans college, Col.
Gage and Commander Hathorn
addressed those present at the
campfire, which was an inspiriting
occasion throughout.
The Rotations by the young Ia
dies and gentlemen were we'll re-
ceived, and the new band made a
fine impression considering the
circumstances.
1t was in all particulars a most
felicitous occasion to all parties
concerned, and is annually a red
