THE TEACHERS INSTITUTE.

The teachers institute last week
was probably the most successful from
every point of view of any ever held
in the county. There was a large at
tendance of teachers from the coun-
ty and city schools and much interest
and enthusiasm was manifested in the
work of every session.
The institute was fortunate in hay
ing in attendance such able instruct
ors as Dr. Bagley of the state normal
school, President Hamilton Of the
State Agricultural College and State
Superintendent Harmon. In times
past the presence of prominent e-luca-
tors of the state could not be relied
upon owing to a lack of railroad facl-
under discouraging circumstances. But
with better methods of travel and a
large increase in the number of local
instructors the institutes in this coun-
ty are fast becoming what they are
designed to be, of practical benefit to
teachers and patrons alike.
Not only to the visiting educators,
but to our energetic county superin-
tendent, Miss Meyersick, and the able
corps of local teachers, is a large meas
ure of credit due for making the in
Stitute one of profit and pleasure
Lewistown is fast becoming an edu-
cational center of its own. fact which
the visitors We're quick in discover
ing
The lectures given We're helpful to
the teachers and will aid and inspire
them to greater efforts in the high
calling in which they are devotng
their time and talents.
Fortunate, indeed is Montana in
having at the head of its public
schools a man so thoroughly capable
and energetic as Prof Harmon. Tn
der his supervision the schools of this
state are fast becoming the equal OF
those of older commemorative and il
is to be hoped that he will be retain
ed in his present position for some
years TO come, Notwithstanding thar

Corporations need regulation. but
we must not forget there are no trou-
bles about regulating corporations
where the poverty of the country is
such that it is not worth while to
form corporations. There is no diff,
Guilty either in regulating railroads
where the resources are so few that
1t does not pay to build railroads.
The growth of corporations means the
growth of industrial fortunes, the
growth of wealth and some very I'M
fortunate accomplishments, but it
seems to me the worst damage the
people of wealth can do to the rest
of Us is to awaken in our breasts
either the mean vice of worshipping
mere wealth or viewing with rancor-
Gus envy and hatred every man of
wealth because the wealthy corpora.
ton is the creature of the state. 1t
should always be held accountable to
the sovereign power, and this &C.
countability should be real, not sham.
Therefore, in my judgment, corpora
tiOns should be held accountable to
the federal government. But we should
not strive to limit nor prevent cor
porate activity.-President Roosevelt.

LAYING OF THE CORNER STONE.

Under bright skies and with the
beautiful and impressive ceremonies
OF the Masonic order, the corner stone
of the Lewistown Carnegie Library
building was laid last Tuesday after
noon. But for the collapse OF poor
ly constructed platform by which
number of those participating in the
ceremonies were slightly injured, ev-
erything passed off in accordance with
a pre-arranged program. The attend
ance of citizens was large and great
interest was manifested in the pro-
ceedings which mean SO much to the
rising generation of this community.
The able address of Hon. F. F..
Smith which appeared in full in our
ly. His reference to the early efforts
to establish library in Lewistown
as we'll as the appeal made to Mr..
Carnegie in behalf of building, was
of interest to many and showed what
had been accomplished from small
beginning. 1t was through Mr.. Smith 3
earnest solicitation and appeal to the
great steel magnate that the generous
offer was made, hence his pleasure in
seeing the fruition of his hopes being
realized.
While Mr.. Carnegie's handsome gift
is duly appreciated. the generosity and
public spirit of our own citizens in
providing a lot for the structure must
not be overlooked
The library building will meet the
needs of the city for years to come and
many who enter its portals in search
of knowledge will live to pronounce
a benediction upon all who were in
strumental in providing them with
such advantages.

A monument in honor of J. Ster-
ling Morton was unveiled at Nebras-
IA City last Saturday in the pres
ence of thousands of visitors from
all parts of the state. EX-president
Cleveland made the principal address,
paving eloquent tribute to the found
er of Arbor Day and secretary of ag-
rculture during his last administra-
ton. The monument is a statue OF
Mr.. Morton, mounted on a massive
pedestal and is said to be specimen
of the sculptor's art. Not only the
people of Nebraska alone but of the
whole country should hold the dead
secretary in grateful remembrance,
for the association of his name with
Arbor Day. His motto was, PLANT
tree" and he repeated it in and out
of season and practiced what he
preached He was an earnest, prac-
teal man, who put his ideas into
shape to bring results, as the beauties
of "Arbor Lodge" his Nebraska es-
tate, bear ample testimony.

The time has come to put a check
to the manner in which Halloween
is observed in Lewistown. Every
man was once a boy. The most of
them We're boys in the full sense of
the word. Most men want to see boys
have a good time while they are
young and free from care, knowing
that trouble will come soon enough
But there is a difference in boys. Some
of them exercise reason and are con-
tent with fun that does not lead TO
excess. Others will go the limit and
commit acts of a criminal nature,
either thoughtlessly or Intentionally.
A few of the latter kind We're around
last Tuesday night and did consid-
cradle malicious mischief, according
to reports. Complaint is made that in
various parts of the city electric
lamps were broken with stones and
the streets rendered dark, in some in
stances several dollars worth of dam
age beng done. This is going too far,
and in the future special deputies
should be appointed to arrest all boys
discovered in the act of destroying
or injuring property. 1t might be we'll
to ring the curfew at s o'clock on the
evening of October 31st. Halloween,
