every woman, and if they think there
is to be meek submission Of carrying
such a name, there will be surpris'
ing and vigorous denial, and maybaps
there may be more Ahabe, than is re-
corded IN ancient lore.
Another American has covered
himself with honor in a timely, as
well as brave speech spoken on the
moment, when in the political meet
ing at johannesburg in the Trans
vaal, when Rhodes and his confeder-
ates were stirring up the population
against the Beers, this man got up
and in the very faces of the plotters,
told the people who were being plot
ted against that they should watch
these lntrigues with wholesome sus-
picion or they would have another
Syndicate formed, to grind them out
Of existence like the Cape Colony or
Kimberly example. American impu-
dence is usually backed up with the
principles Of justice.
To show the influence of education
on a war-like disposition IN main
tanning a peaceful spirit whose priu-
ciples are based upon right and order
of justice, is very remarkably shown
in the uprisings of the republics Of
South America. The COW boys along
the Rio Grande who were disposed to
rebel against laws passed at remote
capital, when such laws modest or in
terfere with their csprices. But the
more advanced portions of Brazil,
through the central regions, where
San Paolo is the metropolis and
where the benefits Of the University
is felt there was no response to the
cowboys appeal to take part in
revolution. Education's influence
was too strong.

Legislation of the worst character en-
cumbers the statute books and has
been carried on to the detriment OF
agriculture and its dependent indus
tries for thirty years, eliminating in
the crime Of the age, the demonetiza-
ton Of silver in 1879
"As John Clark Ridpath, in the
current number OF the Arena, says
Words are inadequate to describe
the profundity and criminality OF
that scheme.
1t was done by a turn of Shylock's
wrist, 30 adroit, and, one might say,
so devilish, as to be understandable in
the phraseology of this world"
ut is because they feel the effects
Of this crime and would fix the re-
sponsibility for it that so many

Teachers Meeting.

Coomes School house Saturday, at
2 o. m. Feb. s, 1896. Only about
one fifth of teachers in Division One
we're IN attendance. We understand
that some of them claim that the
teachers meeting is useless thing,
Probably 1t is to them.
If the theories advanced for the
teaching of Reading and Arithmetic
we're practiced in all schools of the
"Division" teaching those branches
would soon be much easier and better
done than now.
Supt. Tadlock and the president,
Fl. B. Morgan, expressed their views
as strongly and are SO reinforced by
the tale of the practical experience
of district ownership Of text books
that nearly all went home ready and
willing to vote for district ownership
If they ever get chance.
We understand that the school
boards are going to discuss the advis-
ability Of considering whether appli'
cants for schools attend and take part
in teachers meetings.

In an editorial article juslifying the
now famous speech Of Senator Ben
Tillnan the st. Louis Post Dispatch
quotes Secretary Carlisle and others.
The article appears under the cap
tion of "llllmsn and Others" and IS
as follows:
Except IN giving it a personal ap-
plication, how does the speech OF Sem
stor Tillman differ from the arralgn-
ment of the financial conspiracy by
Carlisle, in the house of representa-
tives on February 81, 1878, when he
said; According to my view of the
subject, the conspiracy which seems
to have formed here and in Europe
to destroy, by legislation and other
wise, from three-sevenths to one-haIf
of the metallic money of the world
is the most gigantic crime of this or
any other age.
The contamination OF such a
scheme would ultimately entail more
misery upon the human race than
all the wars pestilence and famine
that ever occurred in the history of
1.-THE world
What has Senator Tillman done
but point to the abettors of what Mr..
Bright Of Tennessee in the Forty
fifth congress condemned, when he
said: Aye, sir, it was fraud that
smells to heaven. 1t was a fraud
that will stink in the nose of poster
ity, aud for which some persons must
give an account on The day of retribu-
tion.' s,.

call attention, but to that colossal
crime to which the special committee

The North Pole Found

''In St. Petersburg last week a tel.
egram was received from Irkutsk,
Siberia, saying that q Siberian trader
named Houchsareff, who is the agent
of Dr. Fridtjef Nansen, the Norwe-
gian explorer who sailed in the Fran
June "a, 1893, for the Arctic regions
has received information to the effect
that DR.. Nansen has reached the
north pole and has found land there
and is now returning towards civill-
cation"
The news was discredited at first,
but later dispatches seem to confirm
the story that DR.. Nansen is safe and
returning. The dispatches further
state that the pole is located upon a
range of mountains. The news OF
DIR Nansen's success has created in.
tense interest all over Europe and
America, and there are many promi-
nent scientific men who still doubt
the truth of the information thus far

To the right of this device there are lines
diagonally arranged which cancel the
stamp. None Of the letters from Boston
which the Listener has thus far received
nave borne this kind Of postmark. but it
seems to be In use in all the other large
places and some Of the smaller ones. 1t is
said to be more convenient mechanically
than the circular stamp and more certain
to leave clear impression of every letter
and figure In the device. However, the Lis
tener must confess that he sees the de-
parture of the old round postmark with
some regret. The circle Is always more
pleasing to the eye than the straight line.
and there must be besides certain senti-
mental attachment in most people to the
round mark. which has been borne by ali
the motherly and fatherly epistles, biilets-
doux, friendly newspackets jolly gossipine
chronicles and long cherished duns that
they have ever received. Upon the last let
ter to bear the circular postmark which
comes to the Listener he will be very much
inclined to drop a silent, reminiscent tear
possibly not blotting 1t out forever, but
doubtless rendering 1t souvenir of great
value to scme of his most ardent admirers,
such as the editor of Paragraphs, Mr.. Dana
Of the Sun and the Emperor of Germany.
