A CLEAR setting forth of the princi-
pies of the Republican party and the
record of the operation of these prin-
cip1es and a palmer statement of the
policy of the adninistra on the
great questions of the day than pre-
scented in President McKin1ey's letter
Of acceptance would scarcely be posi-
BILE. The very significant story of the
marvellous industrial and commercial
development under Republican policies
is wisely told. The antagonism of the
Republican party to trade monop1.es
and robber corporations is forcefu1'y
stated andits plan of operation against
them outlined. A history of events
leading up to and succeeding the battle
of Manila, the attack on the American
forces in that city by Aguina1do and
the results that ensued is given by the
President with great care in the matter
OF detail. It c1ea r1y shows by the logic
of events that the only position left 20
1'1e United States in honor and the
fearless discharge of its responsible
ties is the position which the admins
ration took and has been struggling
to maintain against the gueri11as,
Aguina1do and those who are aiding
them by their sentiment in this
country.
The letter leaves nothing to be de-
sired 1t states the issues in a way
that leaves no room for question and
sets forth the position of the Repub1i-
can party SO clearly that all idea of
''imperia1ism' is rendered absurd in
the extreme.

have suffered severely, our honor would
have been taruished and business de-
preston would have deepened, but we
had not that far to fall. His victory
now with the train running at full
speed would bring a crash and produce
shock which cannot be readily i'm
agined. A sudden panic IN the midst
of high prosperity is worse than any
other, and that is what would come a
week after Bryan's election. : :
Prices would fall, new enterprises
would cease, old enterprises would be
contracted, wages would be reduced,
and thousands of men would be thrown
out of employment, with all the multi
plying 4nisfortunes which surely
follow when confidence in our admin
istration and in our commercial 1egis-
1ation was destroyed by a Democratic
victOrY''

should be read and considerably every
parent having a child in the public
schools:
"And now the whining school boy,
with his satche1 and his shining morn.
ing face, creeping like snail, unwill-
ing1Y to school" Thus it was in
Shakespeare time. We see happy
school children, but are the motives
with which they go understood or
thought of? Most children go because
they are sent. Parents too often think
that when children are sent to school,
their duty in the matter is ended. The
teacher has responsibilities but the
parent also has responsibility that
cannot be shifted on the teachers
shoulders 1t is for the parent to in
still in the mind of the child the mo-
tives which are to control his actions
in school. Nothing should be done in
a ha phazard way. Reason is our high
est faculty, that which makes us SUI
perior to other animals. We are not
to act upon impulse, or be changed by
any wind that blows, nor yet to drift
along without vo1ition. Especially
should we know our motives and reas-
ons about SO important thing as the
education of our children. Does the
boy know why he goes to school, or
what he is to learn there?
Children, you are to be the COntrou-
ing powers in this land of ours. You
are to be the artisans, the business
men, manufacturers, directors, teach
ers and professors. You are to hold
the reins of government in your own
hands. You are the future fathers
and mothers of generations yet to be.
You now go to school to acquire the
powers of mind to fit you to act your
part in all these responsibilities. You
are to help rule the world. The first
step towards it is to rule yourself. Be
master of your own will and control
your impulses. Learn to use your
reasoning powers, to exercise good
Judgment. While you are storing
your minds with knowledge that will
prove of greatest use to you, learn to
rely on YOUR own eXertions and indie
pendent study. Do not imagine your
teacher can do your work. The teach
er is only an aid; you, yourself, must
do the work. Physical courage is
fine quality and one that you can see
and admire. Know that moral courage
is a much finer and greater quality
When you know what is right, stand
by it brave1y. To be master of your
self is one of the highest qualities of
noble manhood and womanhood.
Such thoughts as these should be
taught the child from the day he enters
the kindergarten. He may not know
all at first, but now is the time to give
bent to his mind. The training must
be cease1ess till he comes to years of
discretion. The mind of child is not
the weak, useless thing, that some i'm
agine. Children can understand much
if they are talked to from the first as
beings of sense, and not mere pup
pets. Feed them with slush, and the
intellect is weakened. The earlier
they learn to act from reason and feel
a responsibility for their own conduct,
the stronger men and women they
become,

This Campaign.


In an article in the last number of
Harper's Weekly Henry Cabot Lodge
sets forth the significance of the pres
ent campaign in a striking manner.
He says:
CHOW, as in 1896, the honor Of the
country is at stake on the money
question. The Bryan proposition in
regard to free silver means reputation
and dishonor. This every one COM
prehends, but it is to be feared that
thousands of voters fail to appreciate
the fact that free silver is just as real
and dangerous now as it was four
years ago and soothe themselves with
the comfortable belief that the silver
issue is dead. Dead it will be if the
Republican party is continued in
power, but it would spring into ro-
bust and active life if Mr.. Bryan
SHOULD be elected. The chatter of the
Democratic platform and the Demo.
cratic orator about imperialism" be-
ing the paramount issue would have no
meaning the day after election if
Bryan should win. The Philippines
would still be ours and the living
reality of free silver would then be
apparent. The only affirmative prOpo-
sition in the Democratic platform is
the clause declaring for free silver at
the ratio of 10 to 1. If Mr.. Bryan
carries the country, he will say, with
truth, that the voters approved this
proposition and that he has mandate
from the people to put into execution
the financial policy for which the
Democratic platform declared SO plain
ly. He will have a Secretary of the
Treasury who will be able to do much
remedy by virtue of his office toward
putting us on a silver basis and wreck
ing our credit and our financial honor.
He will have a7house which will agree
with him and which will promptly pass
a bill TO repeal the gold act and estab-
1ish the free coinage of silver. = . <
People would then see that free silver
was alive and in triumph, and they
would also notice what they apparent
1y overlook now, that the Democratic
platform pledges the party to abolish
the national banks and substitute for
their issues government notes. In
other words returned free silver is the
policy of issuing irredeemab1e paper.
The mere possibility of such 1egis1a-
ton, the aiding of party committed
to such principles would fill the bust
ness world with CONSERVATION. X

would be far worse than it would have
been four years ago. In 1891 the

CITY SCHOOLS OPEN.
Miss Reed, OF Northwestern. is in the
Chair Formerly Occupied by
Prof. NeWberry.
AN AUsPICIoUs BEGINNING.
The High School opens This Morning
With IT'S in Attendance and
Two New Instructors

Another year in the schools of The
city opened today. The faces of chill
dren and high school pupils that have
been familiar on the streets of the city
for the summer have vanished to the
school room where the routine of study
and recitation is again in full swing.
There are many among the school
children today to whom the high school
looks formidable and unfamiliar.
There are many who have been there
before and expect this year to be their
last in the halls of the school that has
grown dear to them by association.
Among the faculty there are also
some strange faces. Miss Reed, re-
Gently graduated from Northwestern
University, is in the place that was to
have been filled by Prof. Newberry.
Miss Winnifred Miller, former Keno
sha girl, is in the chair of Latin and
Greek vacated by Prof NARROW. These
two are all the changes noted in the
faculty of the high school. Those of
the old instructors who are back at
their accustomed desks express pleas
ure at the return to their duties and
are highly pleased with the prospects
for the year.
Prof. WiswaIl was interviewed this
afternoon on the condition of affairs
on the opening day, and said that
while it was still little bit early to
give any definite information as to
numbers and so forth, it could be
safely stated that this year would be
the most successful in the history of
the schools of Kenosha
There are approximately US pupils
in the High School. The exact num-
Der is not yet available. It is thought
that the attendance will prove some
larger than last yea.
The senoior class is not at present as
large as that of syear ago but The
freshman class is a little larger.
Owing to confused reports that got
about there seems to have been some
doubt among the pupils of the opening
of the High School today. The car
penters havesbeen at work, and still are
at work on the improvement, and the
fumOr became current that on that &C
count the opening would be postponed.
The report was quite generally con-
tradicted, however, before the morning
passed, and it is likely that most of
the pupils were enrolled today.
The improvements that have been
under process Of making, consist of
a complete readjustment of the heat
ing system, SO that ali the furnaces in
the building connect with all the
rooms, thus making it possible to con-
centrate the heat of the whole system
in any room or room or rooms that may
require it; a large fan opertaited by
water motor for purposes of ventila-
ton, and a splendid physical labratory
in the basement of the building,
The reopening of the schools renews
Kenosha's pride in them, So great has
been the recent advancement of our
High School that it is now one of the
elven high schools in the whole state
that are on the accredited list of the
State University for all courses. In
this respect Kenosha is in the lead of
Racine.

The Letter of Acceptance.

We are in agreement with all of
those who supported the war with
Spain, and also with those who coun
selled the ratification of the treaty of
peace. Upon these two great essential
steps there can be no issue, and out of
these come all of our responsibilities.
IF others would shirk the obligations
imposed by the war and the treaty, we
must decline to act further with them,
and here the issue is made. 1t is our
purpose to establish in the Philippines
a government suitable to the wants
and conditions of the inha bitants and
to prepare them for se1f-government
when they are ready for it. That |
am aiming to do under my COnstitu
tional authority-and will continue to
do until congress shall determine the
political status of the inha bitants of
the archipelago. - President Nc
Kinley.

The Republican party does not have
to assert its devotion to the Dec1ara-
ton of Independence. That immortal
instrument of the fathers remained
unexecuted until the people under the
lead of the Republican party in the
awful flash of battle turned it's prom
Uses into fu1fllment. 1t wrote into the
constitution the amendments guaran-
teeing political equality to American
citizenship and it has never broken
them or counse11ed others in breaking
them. 1t will not be guided in its
conduct by one set of principles at
home and another set in the new
territory belonging to the United
States.-Prcsident Mckinley.

The>American people are asked by
our opponents to yield the sovereignty
of the United States in the Philippines
to a small fraction of the population,
single t1ibe out of eighty or more in
habiting the archipelago, fraction
which wantonly attacked the American
troops in Manila while in rightful
possession under the protocol with
Spain, awaiting the ratification of the
treaty of peace by the senate, and
which has since been in active, open
rebellion against the United States.
We are asked to transfer our sover-
eighty to a small minority in the
islands without consulting the ma
iority and to abandon the largest por-
ton of the population, which has been
1oya1 to us, to the crue1ties of the guer
lila insurgent bands. More than this,
we are asked to protect this minority
in establishing a government and to
this end repress all opposition of the
majority. We are required to set up
stable government in the interest of
those who have assaulted our sovereign
ty and fired upon our soldiers, and then
maintain it at any cost or sacrifice

those. having ambitious designs from

TO POOL INTERESTS.
Operators of this Coal Field 1t is said
VIII Continue to Develop the Field
and Divide Orders.

One of the most important meet
ngs which has been held this year,
and which is of especial interest to
the entire coal trade OF the world, took
place at Deer Park, Md. last Satur-
day The object Of the meeting was
to take the initial step toward pool
ing the entire output OF coal from the
Fairmont region. The meeting was
attended by all the operators in this
region.
An agreement TO cooperate was
easily reached when it was established
beyond doubt that the individual
operator could not hope to cope alone
with the gigantic combinations which
have been effected in Illinois, Ohio,
and Pennsylvania. The agreement,
it is said, will not mean the closing
up OF single mine In the region.
On Ube other hand, the probabilities
are that new mines will be opened as
fast as practicable, while the output
Of the mines now in operation will be
more than doubled. The pooling will
be in the selling only; there will be a
common selling agency; rate cutting
will be stopped, and orders will be
divided according to the capacity of
each mine.
Committees, which will report at
the next meeting, were appointed to
perfect plans of organization and
make such suggestions as will be of
mutual benefit. All the operators in
the Fairmont region will become
members OF the organization, which
will represent $50, 900, 600 OF invested
capital. The output of the region
this year is estimated at 10000, 900
tons.

FAIRMoNT, w. Va, Sept. 1S-A
great deal Of excitement prevailed at
Fairyiew to-day over an incident
which happened there some time early
this morning. Titus Pogue was
found dead in bed by Mrs. Galore, at
which place he had been boarding
since the 18th of this month, with a
bullet hole just below the right tenn
pie. No one knows who did the deed
but he was murdered, from the fact
that no revolver was found in his
room To show that he bad committed
suicide. 1t is talked among the citi-
zens OF Fairview that he had became
too intimate with women in that
neighborhood, and that one made the
assertion that if he did not marry her
she would kill him. He was married
and had two children, but he and his
wife were divorced. He was about
thirty years of age. His family re-
side at Fairview and since their sepa-
ration he has been working in differ
ent places, and on the 18th inst be
went from Barrackville TO Fairyiew,
and has since been residing with Mrs.
Galore. No arrests have been made.
