OBSERVATIONS ON THE INSTITUTE.

While the institute which closed last
week was in many respects unusually
successful yet in "a few details at least
! it was not quite the equal Of the insti-
tutes held prior to 1897, and in partic llar
| TO the two weeks institute of the sum
mer of 1890. This is no fault of the
management Mantowoc had the good
/ fortune of having conductors reputed to
/ be unexcelled III this state But the at
! tendance was lamentably irregular.
! Many enrolled TO remain but "a day or
/ two, while fully one third failed to enroll
at all A goodly proportion of the teach
ers Of Manitowoc county not only lost
valuable opportunities, but at the same
! time they neglected duty they owe to
their schools. Such laxity is unpardon-
able, and ought to be taken into account
when certificates are issued next spring.
! The county cannot afford to allow its
schools to remain in the hands of corps
of men and women 80 utterly indiifer.
ent to the veal of the rural schools.
In one respect the state department
i. perhaps at fault Under its ruling
none but common school branches are
permitted to appear on the institute
program All teachers, whether they
have taught one year or ten, are requir-
ed to rehash geography, grammar and
L. ). history. An improvement was in
augurated in separating the institute in
10 two sections on a basis of experience.
But no election was permitted.
Contrast this with the program of
1896 Prof G. f. Patzer offered courses
In algebra and Hamlet while Prof w
G. Hewitt had charge of classes in plane
aud solid geometry and physical geogra-
ply. In addition Prof. Patzer delivered
"a series of most delightful aud instruct
i've lectures on topics Of general history
Nor were the common school branches
ignored Those who felt the need of
them had ample opportunities to devote
their efforts in mastering them.
Old teachers pronounce this institute
.3f 1896 the most successful held in
tlanitowoc county during the past de-
rtdc. and we believe this is due largely
10 the fact that the teachers were lead
from tine accustomed routine into the
intellectual realms beyond The story

for the Demo ratio candidate in 1896 in
Kansas was changed into "a Republican
ma iority of rs o. in the gubernatorial
election of 1s9- Kansas has 10 elector-
al votes. In 1896 Washington cast its 4
electoral votes for Bryan, but the con
gressional election Of 1898 indicate
Republican victory in that state Cali
fornia will unque,tionablv east its full
electoral vote for Mckinley this year
To recapitulate, we find that Bryans
losses may be a. follows:
| Washington ....... .........,...., .
California .........,......
or the other hand Kentucky and
MARYLAND will unquestionably re-
turn Democratic najorities this year,
and we predict that New York and New
Jersey will a. well Ia 1896 the Repub-
lican majority in New York was 26S, 600;
in 1897 this was reduced TO 1000 and
in 1898, Theod0rp Roosevelt, the mill
tary hero of RepuhIicanism, carried the
state by less than 5000. The great
Republican majority of 26S, 600 was re-
duced TO $4,000 in two years. Nor was
1898 an off year in New York. The vote
of 1896 exceeded that of 1898 by but )
per cent. New York today has a unit
ed Democracy - D2mocracythat is 10y
al to its leader With Il united front, it
seems scarcely possible that the great
state should cast its vote for Mckinley.

Baby Saved Him.

A poor, disconsolate mother, tie wife of
a drunkard, had home barren of every
thing but little blue-eyed two-year-old
girl in rags. The father abused the little
one and its mother, and in his quest for
liquor had pawned every article of furni-
ture in the house.
A few weeks ago the worried mother
went into public house, where she found
the recreant husband. The little girl in
her mothers arms recognized her father,
and gave him one of those little child
smiles of recognition which every father
covets.
The mother walked over to the bar,
where her drunken husband stood, and,
as the tears coursed down her cheeks,
said:
Papa, kiss Ella and bid her goodbye;
| am going to give her to the innkeeper,
Drink up her value, and when she is gons
everything we ever possessed is gone
There is nothing in the house to eat, and
am going out to work"
The little one understood the meaning
Of the. words, kiss papa" as they fell
from the quivering lips OF the mother, and
she leaned forward to 90 as she had been
told. Give me Ella" the father ex-
claimed, as he became sensible of what his
wife said, Il have taken my last drink"
A new promise, strong and binding as
their wedding VOW, was made in the grim
corner of the inn, and the two went home
to lead brighter III happier life.
