John Yellow Wolf, a Sioux Indian
who was released from the Deadwood
Jail last week, was lynched for horse
stealing while on the way to his home
OH the Rosebud reservation. When
Yellow Wolf started for the agency he
was given a worthless old horse and
saddle. Below Rapid City he turned
the old horse loose and caught a young
horse out of a pasture on which to com
plets the journey. He was oyertaken by
a number of men and was later found
dangling to a Cottonwood tree neal
White river. Yellow Wolf had served
several terms in the Deadwood Jail for
various offenses.

Bnnish Politics and Nepotism.

Speaking of the declaration of edu-
cational principles adopted by 1,7OC
southern teachers at Knoxville this
summer, the New York Times says:
An interesting point in the declara-
tion of the southern teachers was the
following, which might with advant-
age be studied in many northern
community:
Teaching should be a profession
and not stepping-stone to something
else. We therefore stand for the
highest training of teachers and urge
the school authorities of every state
to encourage those who wish to make
the educating of children life pro-
fession. We call upon the people to
Danish forever politics and nepotism
from the public schools, and to estab-
lish a system in which, from the
humblest teacher to the Office of state
superintendent, merit shall be the
touchstone.
Woodville Republican., 1902-10-25

The individual happiness and useful
ness of the future citizens of the
county will depend in very large
measure upon what the public schools
do for the children now, and the fu.
ture standing of the county intellect.
ually, politically, and financially will
depend upon the character and kind
of schools we provide for the present
generation. Then the schools should
be our greatest concern from the
standpoint of either selfshness or
patriotism. The support of good and
proper schools is not an expense, but
an investment. 1t is an investment
that always pay direct and liberal
return both in money ana in better
citizens. 1t is an investment that we
must make or suffer great loss in the
capital we already have. 1t is mat
ter. too, about which we can not hesi.
tate or procrastinate. Win you sacri
fee your money and save your child,
or sacrifice your child in an attempt
to save your money?-Supt. NJ. L.
Duggan, of Georgia.

SOUTHERN
EDUCATION
AN IDEA THAT PAYS WELL.
One of Massachusetts' First Acts
Was to Establish q Gree
School"

Along with some very austere re-
ligion, bigotry and superstition, the
Puritan landed, in 1920, with the free
school idea firmly fixed in his head.
One of the first things the Massachu-
setts colony did after being assured
that it was not to perish from star
vation, was the opening of "free
school," backed by compulsory at
tendance thereon of every child be-
tween the ages of six and eighteen
years. The idea" was too much for
the savage climate and more savage
natives; too much for the stony bat
ter soil; too much for all the vices
and errors of the colonists. 1t has
been the chief factor in making of
Massachusetts, Connecticut and
Rhode Island the richest communities
in the world, proportionately to their
population.
The idea was carried westward
steadily, as the sturdy Yankees
pressed back the red savages and
''won the west" foot by foot, as is
were. The result of it is that the
population living north of the Mason
Dixon line and on the Pacific slope is
the most intelligent in the world,
has less of illiteracy in its native pop
ulation than is found among any 9TH,
er equal number anywhere, and is the
richest.
This is no guessing; it's history;
it's no product of Imagination, the
facts are apparent to the ordinary
observer; we need not go into sta
tistics to prove what we assert, its
truth is known to the world.
Our reader can make such applica-
tion as pleases him, and draw from
our arrangement of the facts such
conclusion and application as may
suggest themselves.-Chat
Times.

"PreeInelx as Advertlned. ,,

Soon after one of the largest American
railways had been opened traveller noticed
q marked disregard for punctuality on the
part of the officials, but he was interested
in the country and made no complaint. Al
last the terminus was reached. There he
met beaming official of the company, who
pulling out his watch, said:
Just look and see what time you make
1t, will you please"
ut wants ten minutes to one," said the
traveller, little puzzled.
Yes, sir, 1880 exactly, and that's the
hour she's timed to arrivel How's that for
promptness? Crossing the continent, al
most 5000 miles, and getting here at 1886
o'clock precisely as advertised"

"JUG" MEDICINE.

Up in a little Vermont town they tell q
story Of an old nurse. She was the kind Of
an "old nurse" to be found in small towns,
who comes, after much urging, to tend" a
case and who has many Sairey Camp pecu-
liarities, relates the New York Herald.
Miss Sally" as she was called, was In.
duced to come to the house of the sick wOm-
an and take charge. She moved in--cob

After the good creature had seen the case
through, she said to the doctor, doc, kin l
take my toll?"
Whats that, Sally" asked the visiting
physician, who had come from the capital
city and was amused and a little irritated
by the old woman's ways.
Il mean the medicine" said the nurss
complacently.
"fhe medicinel" exclaimed the doctor.
What on earth do you want with the medi-

No fifth wheel to a wagon was ever more
redundant than left over medicines.
Il puts 1t in me jug, replied the old wom-
an slowly, 'and then / gives it out occa-
sionally when there amt no doctor nigh"
The visiting physician roared with laugh
ter, but sobered down when the story of
"Old Sally's" "jug" medicine was explained
to him. That there were not more victims
to her unique methods of cure was a mys-
terry.

Chi1dren Mood ErnrensIon.

There is no more preposterous ad-
monition than that which has been
dinged into the ears of innocence for
centuries, "Children should be seen
and not heard"
The healthy, active child is full OF
impressions, and that he should ex-
press himself is just as natural as for
a bird to sing. 1t is natures way OF
giving growth-no one knows a thing
for sure until he tells it to some one
else. We deepen impressions by re-
counting them, and to habitually sup
press and repress the child when he
wants to tell the curious things he
has seen, is to display two-by-four
acumen.-Elbert Hubbard.

The Prosperous state.

The state that has a library in
every considerable town, a school
house on every hill, an academy
wherever there are enough young
men and women to make up some
classes, well endowed colleges to
keep at home the boys and girls who
hunger and thirst for higher educa-
tion-that is the prosperous state,
says the Chattanooga Times. The
state that has scanty school fund,
few good preparatory schools and
colleges, and no libraries worthy Of
the name, is the state that takes the
tail of the procession, or is next to
it, on the march of social life.
Woodville Republican., 1902-10-25

The very mud-sill of the educational
campaign must be better school
houses. The best teachers and bright
est pupils are at disadvantage when
the school house is cold, dreary cheer
less. The women alone can bring
about the improvement in the school
houses, which require good taste and
deft hands. This work ought TO en-
list the hearty cooperation of the
most progressive women in the state,
1t will deepen interest on the part OF
men in public education, secure in
creased attendance, and result IN bet
ter schools and longer terms where
needed.-Raleigh IN. c. News and
