COUNTY EDUCATIONAL MATTERS
BY SUPERINTENDENT MORTON.

Scholarly culture is yaluble to the
teacher because it tends to prevent
mental poverty. Some one has a

d" AS they are debarred, or at least
checked from much personal every
day business contact with strong
headed men, they should bring their
minds into contact with masculine
intellects in their libraries" ii this
be true OF that profession it IS doub-
ly true with us who teach. We deal
not with strOng-minded men and
women, but with the undeveiOped
mind OF childhood, and should we
come before such possibilities but
with the very richest condition of
mind and heart we would be traitors
to the great trust given into our
hands. An instructor that fails to
keep up with his studies is Oh the
certain road to bankruptcy. In the
course OF years two teachers side by
side in the same schools, the one a
student and the other simply living
| upon his stock in trade, will be dis
| covered to be gradually growing
apart. The studious one will grow
in estimation Of the public, his opin-
ion will be valued, increased respon-
sibility is placed upon him, and he
win be able to rise with the increase
pressure. The one who does not
continue to study will inevitably
lose the respect Of the public, deteri-
crate as Il teacher and finally will
not be able to find q position in the
ranks. President Wiland's rule to
increase the power of the mind was
to use the mind to the utmost. Ii

BREAKING THE ALLIANCE.
Maine's Popuiist Candidate for Governor
Disgusted at the Outcome of the
ELscfion

NEW YORK, N. Y, Nov. 1s.-A Times
special from Lewisto Me-, says: Every
indication is that the alliance which ex-
listed between the Populst and Dem ocratic
parties during the recent National cam
paign can no longer exist.
L. C. Bateman, who was the PopuIist
candidate for Governor, is constantly in
communication with the leaders of the
middle-of- the-road Populists. and they
declare in the most emphatic terms that
the fusion between the two parties shall
no longer exist.
Mr.. Bateman was asked what would be
the future OF the Populist party. He said
Bryan and his issue are done for. Had
he boldly planted his foot upon the Popu-
list platform he would have been electe
sure. He did not have the nerve TO do
this, and he is lost. Daniel Webster made
the same blunder fifty years ago, and with
similar result. The money question was
started with the mild demand for free
coinage of silver; it will end with the de-
monetization OF gold. This is the mission
OF the Peoples party. We shall demand
the utter overthrow of the whole metal
basis system and the esta blishment of a
purely scientific paper currency, based
upon the entire wealth of the country.
"We shall demand the Government
ownership of the railroad, telegraph and
telephone lines. Direct legislation Will
also be one of our i'm portant demands.
II look 10 see, with the passage of a
silver bill by the Republicans, the Silver
Democrats uniting with the gold wing OF
the party and going back to their old posi-
ton of opposition party Only this and
nothing more.
1.-THE Populists are the coming party.
Watson will be our great leader four years
hence. The present fusion managers have
made mess of it and are thoroughly dis.
credited by the rank and file, who will
have nothing more to do with them. Some
of them will go into the Democratic party
and the rest will be sent to the rear Their
policy has been tried and found sadly
wanting. These men will never lead oul
party into disgrace again"

w. C. T. u. SESSION CLOSES.
Ovation to Emma Booth Tucker-Evenin inc
Exercises Turned Into a SpoRta-
neous Praise Jubilee.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Nov. 1S.-At this morn
ing's session of the W. c. T. U. conven-
ton the report of the executive commit
tee was presented, and with hardly an
amendment and little debate was adopted.
Mrs. Emma Booth Tucker, commits
sioneer-in-chie of the Salvation Army in
America, was introduced to the delegates
and received Chautauqua salute lasting
several minutes. Mrs. Tucker spoke for
nearly thirty minutes, and her recital OF
the work of the Salvation Army moved
many of the delegates to tears.
1t was reserved for the final evening ses-
sion of the convention to have the largest
audience and the most enthusiasm.
The vast hall was packed as never be
fore when the chairman announced that
this was peoples night and that the Off
GERS OF the w. G. 7. .. would turn the
exercises OF the evening over TO the private
soldiers. The scenes that followed re-
sembled rather spontaneous jubilee OF
praise than the session of grave, deliber-
ate. body. A parade of delegates, every
one of the $50 bearing flag or an EN- blem,
marched through the aisles of the hall.
When this was concluded devotional ex-
ercises were conducted by Mrs. Louise S.
Rounds OF Illinois.
Mics Willard followed with short ad-
dress. At9:30 P. NJ. the audience and dele
gates recited the Lords Prayer in unison.
Benediction and final adjournment fol-
lowed.
The convention just closed is the largest
ever held. To the executive committee is
left the duty of selecting the place for the
twelty-fourth annual convention. A
mum ber OF cities have urged their claims.
1t is believed that the choice lies between
Buffalo, n. Y. and Detroit, Mich, but the
choice may not be made for some time.

Johnson's Appointment Is
Revoked by a Kan
sas Judge.
Sweeping Action Reopening
Points That Were Consid-
cred Settled.
The Company Will Now Attempt to
Get the Matter Before the
Federal Courts.

OSKALOOSA, KANs., Nov. 1s.-In the
District Court of Jefferson County to-day
Judge Lewis Myers appointed ex-senator
John Martin as receiver for the Santa Fe
Railroad property in Kansas. The bond.
which was set at $4,000 by the court, will
be filed by Senator Martin at Holton to-
morrow or next day, and the programme e
is for him TO demand imm ediate possession
of the road. Judge Myers also issued an
injunction restraining the Santa Fe Off
cials or any other interested parties from
delaying Senator Martin from securing
possession of the property or from hinder
ing him in any manner in the discharge
of his duties as receiver. A restraining
order was also issued preventing any suit
being brought against the receiver except
in the District Court Of Jefferson County.
The action OF Judge Myers is very sweep
. ing and opens up the case in many points
heretofore considered settled. In fact the
legal status has been, it is admitted, en-
tirely changed.
The appointment of Charles F. Johnson
as receiver. heretofore made by Judge
Myers, was revoked. A judicial inquiry
revealed the fact that Johnson had
changed his mind and had refused to
qualify. He had prepared his bond and
had it signed ready for filing when he was
induced to change his course and refuse to
proceed further. His bond was $50, 900,
but in Martins case it was reduced tc
$25,0oO
Ex-Chief Justice a. P. Horton repre-
sented the Santa Fe and was present at
the proceedings. He refused to appear in
the case, except to call the courts atten-
tion to the fact that the Santa Fe had filed
petition and bond for the removal of the
case to the Federal Court. The court took
no judicial notice of this, as it does not
recognize the jurisdiction OF the Federal
Court in the case, and declared that the
petitions ana motions and suits intended
to prevent these proceedings would have to
be heard in the District Court of Jefferson
County.
Judge Horton, on behalf of the Santa
Fe, made application to the clerk of the
court for transcript of the evidence and
records as they now stand. preparatory to
making another attempt to get the case
i'll the Federal Courts. While the attor-
neys for the receivers do not recognize the
jurisdiction of the Federal Court, they
will, when the case is brought up for hear
ing there, call Judge Fosters attention to
the legal status of the case and points OF
law involved tending to show the position
that the Federal Court has no jurisdiction.
II Judge Foster rules otherwise they will
appeal the case at once in the United
States Federal Court to have the matter
of jurisdiction passed upon.
