nckinley in 1890.

The Globe Democrat, in it's usual
way just before campaign, seems
to take infinite pleasure in trying
to pull down the political fences of
the leading candidate, of the Repub-
lican party for the presidency. 1t
urges as usual some colorless can
didate, some one who possesses
those negative qualities dear to its
heart, namely, obscurity and un-
obtrusiveness. If the Globes ad-
vice were followed always, we
should have meek looking string
of political Miss Nancy's in the
presidential chair, that is when
the republicans could be induced,
in ignorance, to elect them. Its
latest fight appears to be on Nc
Kinley, the choice of three fourths
of the republicans of Missouri. 1t
effects to believe that Mckinley is
unavailing because the party was
beaten in '92, and attributes that
defeat to the Mckinley law. OF
course the Clio be forgets that its
candidate was nominated and de-
feated. The republican party took
its advice and selected as its
standard bearer a man after its own
heart, one who had persistently
snubbed every prominent worker
in the party, and thereby made a
rough hill for the party to climb,
when the road was or ought to
have been level and clear of OBJ
struction. No one with a memory
a foot long has forgotten how the
nomination of Harrison fell like a
wet blanket upon the enthusiasm

of the party and caused it to fight

Of the party and caused it to fight
a defensive battle with defeat
staring it in the face,
only to culminate in a disastrous
rout, as might have been expected.
The Globe is now advising a repe-
tition of the same tactics. We
deny that the Mckinley bill was
the cause of the defeat OF 1892,
but even if it were the country has
abundantly shown its repentance
since, and would overwhelmingly
endorse a return to the prosperity
experienced under the McKin
ley law, until it was disastrous
ly handicapped by the result of
the election of 1892 which para
lyzed business, crippled industry
and plunged the country into hard
times. The election of '94 shwoed
how gladly the people would well
come return to the Mckinley
Law with its good times, its
promise of the future and it's stur-
dy Americanism.
The nomination of Mckinley
means an aggressive, and a victori
GUS campaign, one of those cam
paigns in which the national ticke1

The schoormnster In Germany.

Berlin Letter in New York Post.
In 1866 and 1870 it was said that the Prus-
sian schoolmaster was responsible in large
measure for the Prussian victories. Hence,
It might be argued, Prussia owes her school
master a debt of gratitude. Instead of
which the Minister of Public Education, DR..
Bosse, declares at the opening of the Diet,
in the face of the absolute need of thou
sands of Prussian schoolmasters of an in
crease of salary (who earn less than $500
a year, after a long and expensive profess
sional education), that there is no money
for that purpose. Other facts go to prove
that Prussia has shamefully forgotten her
schoolmaster. Treitschke. the Prussian his
torian, in the fifth volume of his German
history, just out. says about the school
master: 'They forgot the well-attested
truth that the schoomaster must not know
too much unless he wishes to lose the joy
of exercising his praiseworthy calling" and
from few recent numbers of the Prussian
Teachers Gazette 1 Gull couple of illustra-
lions of this view: A immortal lord near
Rostock forbade the teacher in one of his
villages to teach the boys and girls too
much, as otherwise he might, when they
grew up, not have enough of them to
spread manure on his fields. And in Lubzin,
near Sternberg, the owner of the large es-
tate there requires the wife of the school
master to milk cows for him during the
six weeks of harvest time. These are
facts which do not sound well for Prussian
glory.

Once we played that we were men,
Played the brooklet in the glen
Was river rushing down,
And the woodland was town;
Made believe we bought and sold
With the sunbeams,-they were gold,
Green leaves all were dollar bills,
Trees were stores, and shops, and mills.
Each day was a week, entire,
Sunday came; our feathered choir
Sang, while pious parsori Grow
Preached US all asleep below.
oh, the years that undeceive.
1t was only make-believe,
Thought we. quaint and childlike, Them
When we played that we were men.
We have learned when we are old
That those sunbeams were pure gold,
That the woods were cities fair,
And each tree a temple rare;
That our lives from day to day,
In their childish round of play,
Were most true and manly when
We but played that we were men.
