A RISING HUMORIsT.

y rising humorist is II. A. Parlette,
editor of tfie University Herald, OF
Ada, Ohio. Since the sorrowful
death of William Nye, and the aston
ishing decadence of Robert J. Bur
dette, the American public has been
longing for literary Moses-a writ
er or speaker with ticklesome vein
and attenuated figure who could sup
ply the gruesome want. 1t now
looks as if the required individual
has been discovered.
Parlette has mouth as big as
Talmadge, before whose awful vor-
tex the joke, or sector of pie, falters
not on account of its size. The voice
of his jokiferous pen has been heard
in the land, and his platform utter
ances have caught the popular ear
He is billed to lecture generally
over the central states this winter
and where he spoke last winter he
has been called back second time
Attesting his great popularity, the
citizens where he last spoke have
gratuitously paid up his back bills
and guaranteed him a weeks board
to repeat the performance.

ANOTHER NORMAL SCHOOL.

Since influences are being brought
to bear toward the establishment of
a second state normal school at
Hamilton, Montana, a little sensible
talk might not 60 amiss. A second
normal school would be boon to
Montana, as in proportion as our
people patronize and encourage the
higher education, will the state ad.
vance among the commonwealths of
civilization.
But we would build the new
normal school at Great Fails. Here
is the second city of Montana, sec
ond in wealth industry and popua-
ton only to Butte. 1t represents an
area of country two bundled miles
wide and almost as long as Montana
in which there is not only no state
school, but no state institution of
any character whatever. When
public money is being spent for
public good decent respect is al
ways due the people whose money
is used, and we take it that Il norm
al school Mt Hamilton is to benefit
Hamilton first, and Montana second,
Oh not at al!.
The present state normal school is
already on the west side Of the state,
nearly 325 miles from the geograph-
ical center of the state. Does good
sense warrant the planting of the
second such institution on the west
end?
On the other hand, normal
school at Great Falls would be a
grace3to the state, and within easy
reach of all the people. 1t is safe
to say that 100000 Of our popula-
ton are nearer to Great Falls than
to either Dillon OF Hamilton. BY
all means let us have new normal,
and let us locate it where the state
will derive the most benefit from it,

Last year Marion county had the
honor of raising the largest yield of
wheat. NJ. B. Riggs, living two miles
from Florence, had a field of wheat
which averaged fifty-two bushels to
the acre. He sold the crop this spring
for 81 per bushel. This years crop, at
this time of year, looks better than
any other crop in the history of the
county. All fields have a good stand.
The crop made a wonderful growth
and most of it is now headed with
moisture enough in the ground to in
sure proper maturity. There is every
evidence that this year will be a rec
ord-breaker in the wheat line.
