OUB SCHOOL QUESTION.
We are willing to admit with Dr H.
w. Allen. member of our school board
that all things ere not as they should be
in our public schools. As We understand
the system in vogue all over Colorado il
starts out with the assumption that the
Child is going through college OF the state
university and if forsooth that child be
denied the boon of higher education BY
reason of personal aversion to it or par
entail inability to give it. he is cut short
In his student career with smattering
Of the deceased languages and peep at
the "ologies," but with little substantial
as the result of his few years Of study.
We believe this to be fair statement of
the case and, also, a severe arraignment
Of our present school methods, They
are ideal, probably. for the child destined
for one of the already overcrowded pro-
fessions, but, unless our observations have
not been sufficiently clear, we are forced
to the conclusion that little is taught
here of use to the child destined only
for pursuit requiring the elementary
branches of education. We don't think
that this criticism applies more to Boul-
der than to other towns. We see moth
ing but super6ciality everywhere in our
common and high school system. They
know little arithmetic, little geography
little history, and can't write reputable
hand nor open page of single entry.
Their teachers can't write a reputable
hand-no wonder the students display
such wretched chirography. 1t has be.
come fad apparently for school teach
ers to write as abominably as possible.
Neatness of arrangement can not be ex-
pected where slovenly chirography is at
a premium. Composition Is. of course,
lost art, where professors purposely write
4 miserable hand and are careless of
their own "style" of composition, mechan-
ical and rhetorical. The trouble is the
teacher is over weighted with the study
of the additional subjects false system
loads him with and curses our schools
with. He scarcely has time for the con.
temptation and inculc alton of those
things that might be of benefit to boy
or girl compelled to quit school and earn
his or her own livelihood. Too much is
undertaken and too little is well learned
However, we do not agree with DR..
Allen that there is anything radically
wrong in our relations as a school dis.
trict with the regents OF the university.
We think the agreement between the di-
rectors of school district number ) and
the regents affords its own ample Jastl'
fcation for the course Of the district Off
GERS. We bt lieve we are not at any ap-
preciable expense by reason of the non
resident students we teach here. We
believe our business men and our citi.
zens generally are recouped for every
additional dollar these non resident stu.
dents cost us. We hold that their p.es
ence here adver,ises Boulder as an ed.
ucalional center and that to this repu.
tation is largely due our growth as
community and the value of our real
estate and other possessions. We are
glad, however, that Dr. Allen has opened
the ball, Let the utmost light be thrown

The sensation of the past week in the
Rutland bank failure was the arrest on

rife Of Impending revelations, showing
tiat other loans of Ike character were
made to parties whose names thus far

but 10 the time Of this writing no such

The Atlanta Sale.

The large mining properties OF
the old English and Scottish com
pany known as the Atlanta Gold
and Silver Mines, has been pur-
chased by Hon. J. G. Johnston OF
Lincoln, Nebraska, and we hear
the properties will soon be in active
operation again. The Atlanta
mines are well known to the
people of this county and many
are the miners here who can tell
OF the marvellous richness Of them
and the many millions which
they have produced. The Atlanta
lode is known as one of the largest
tissure veins in the world, varying
in width from 80 to $50 feet, the
average as stated by the govern
ment geological survey being rs
feet, and actually tested to depth
OF 1000 feet by thousands OF feet
of tunnels and cross cuts showing
an exposed body of a million tons
of rich ore. Some of the most emf
nent men of Europe and America
have explored its tunnels and re-
ported on its deposits, and all pro-
nounce it the greatest mother lode
of this country if not of the world.
There is said to be some eight
hundred thousand tons of ore
mined and on the dumps which 90
years ago for the want of modern
appliances could not be profitabIy
worked. This body of ore mined
and on the dumps and now ready
for the mill is of itself vast for
tune under modern treatment. As
says and mill runs show the ore to
run from $40, $50, $50 800,
5000 and as high as $4,000 per ton
in considerable quantities, while
pure ruby silver and free gold has
been found assaying as high as $780,
600 per ton. OF course such sam
pies were rare and only tell how
nature stored her vaults with the
rich metals.
The mining properties contain
1900 it on the main lode and some
$4,000 feet of laterals. There is one
20 stamp mill in good condition but
needing some modern improve
ments, 500 horse water power,
| sine water wheel, an assay Of
fee, machine shop, three boarding
houses, and many other fixtures of
much value. All of this vast pro-
perty and machinery will soon be
in operation and Atlanta will be
one of the largest and most pro-
ductive camps in America. Mr..
Johnston and his associate friends
are to be congratulated. We pre-
diet fortunes will be made by the
company and its stock holders. 1t
will be operated BY an Idaho cor
poration and the head office will
be Mountain Home, Weiser or
Boise.

County Convention.

The Democratic county conven.
ton win convene at Rocky Ban
next Monday morning at 10 o'clock
for the purpose of placing full
county ticket in the field. We
trust there will be full attendance
and no proxies, for proxy conven-
tioas invariably bode no good to
any political party. To insure sue
cess at the polls on the 9th of No
vember, the ticket must be com
posed of good, capable and popular
candidates "a fact that must be
evident to all men who have given
the matter proper thought. Anomi-
nation will not mean election I'M
less the candidate stands well with
the party and with the people gen.
orally. Let each delegate throw
aside his personal preference and
place on the ticket only candidates
who are honest, capable and who
possess the confidence of the silver
advocates. Consult with each other
with this view in mind, act in har-
mony and with good cool Judge
ment, shun the idea of trucking to
the goldbugs by placing any par
ticular man of their choice on the
ticket, but do try and please the
majority of the silver voters and all
will be well for the Democracy of
Elmore on election dav.
