District Normal Teachers Institute.

District Normal Teachers Institute.
The Normal Institute for Dis
trict No. One convened Monday,
June 1s, at the high school
building in Julesburg.
There is an earnest body of
teachers in regular attendance,
and much interest is being mani
tested.
Superintendent Phillip M.
Condit, of Florence, is the con-
ductor, and instructor in psy-
shology, physiography and read
ing and child study. Miss En-
ma Westberg, of Fort Collins, is
instructor in primary methods,
nature study and languages.
Next week in place of nature
study she will teach drawing.
Prof. Zuck, late of Chappell,
Nebraska, instructs in arithme-
tic, U. s. history, civics and ply
siology. Next week in place of
physiology he will present the
subject of advanced grammar.
County Superintendent Alice c.
Bower is in canstant attendance
and attending to every detail
looking to the good of the insti-
tute.
The program of the institute
has been prepared to conform to
an outline sent out from the state
superintendent's Office under the
direction of a committee APP
pointed by State Superintendent
Craig.
The aim of the state educa-
tional advisory board is to unity,
and thereby strengthen the state
Normal institute work. While
there is much in the present out
line that ought to be changed, it
could not well be otherwise upon
the first attempt. This is II move
in the right direction and must
result in great good to the teach
ers of this state.
The citizens of Julesburg
should give every encourage
ment to the educational institu-
ton now in it's midst. The fac
ulty report that the body of
teachers now in attendance is as
intelligent and earnest as it has
been their privilege to instruct
and direct.
Wednesday Professor Ira NJ.
Delong, at the head OF the math-
eWatical department of the State
University at Boulder, and Pro
fessor W. r. Thomas, of the
chair of Constitutional history at
the State Agricultural depart
ment, of Fort Collins, visited the
Normal institute and spoke to
the teachers. Their presence
added much to the force of the
work. In the evening Professor
Thomas lectured in the Congre-
gational church to an apprecia-
tive audience. His subject was

History of the Eighth Kentucky
Thrilling Story of the Part this Gallant
Regiment Took in Our Civil War

enjoying a quiet smoke, and told the
indignant owner That's the officer
for you TO consult"
Mr.. Whitmore to Major Broadhus
-"Sir, you appear 10 be doing me
great injustice, taking my property
without my consent"
Major B.-"Well, sir, what are you
going 10 do about itY"
Mr. WI don't know"
Major B-"Well, neither do
know or care. Did you try to per-
suade the rebels not to burn that
bridge?"
Mr.. W. (excitedly)--"No, sir; that
was none OF my business"
Major B.-"Well, neither is this
any Of your business"
The Major, pulling out his watch,
said: Now, you internal rebel, III
give you just three minutes to get
out of sight, and if you don't, l will
teach you by whose authority we are
here, by trotting you all the way to
Nashville about three inches in adj
vance Of a bayonet." He left in
stantly, but have no doubt received
in due time compensation for his fine
timber.
Having finished our timber haul
ing, the Sd Of April the regiment
marched on the Murfreesboro Pike to
Lavergne, there took the cross pike
toward Woodbury., and camped on
the West Fork of Stone River, near
an ancient.lookiug little village call
ed Old jefferson. Resumed the
march the 18th. and on arriving at
the crossing of Stone River, on the
Lebanon Pike, the rebels had burned
the bridge, and during a hard rain
we waded the stream. The stones
were slippery and the current very
swift, causing a great many self
dimensions. Those who fell were
about as comfortable as the others,
all being thoroughly wet. We halt
ed long enough TO wiring our stock
ings, arriving at Murfreesboro at 4
O'Clock, p. m. We marched through
town in column by companies, our
musicians playing yankee Doodle"
We saw but few of the inhabitants.
They were evidently not pleased to
see this second edition of Yankee
troops.
Here we found Colonel Duffield,
with the Ninth Michigan and the
Twenty. third Kentucky, encamped
near large spring southeast Of
town. Two companies Of the Sew
enth Pennsylvania Cavalry were also
here. We remained here nearly one
month. Our time was spent in drill
ing daily all those not required for
camp guards and picket duty The
latter required $50 men and four
officers from the Eighth, daily

sometimes by means that will not
bear scrutiny. For instance, the
Governor OF West Virginia recently
wrote a letter to the Senate of the
United States, complaining Of the
tyranny OF the railroads in bis state,
and sent il, not to his own senators,
who are part of the railroad gang
that exploits the state, but TO a sena-
tor from another state. And one Of
the things complained Of in that let
ter is that the railroads refuse to act
as common carriers in the state, but
discriminate between the common
shipper and those whom they wish,
through business connections, to fay-
or. And this is only one Of the many
instances that can be cited where the
railroads, the very creatures of the
states where they are situated, refuse
TO act according to the common law,
if not according to the statute law,
state and national. The revelations
made in recent numbers OF McClure's
Magazine, should be read by all who
wish TO know what the railroads have
done to arouse so much feeling
against them among the people.
1t is true that there is another side
to the question, and that there are
railroads whose management is equit-
able and just, but it is the injustice
done by the few that makes laws
necessary. We are all restricted in
our relations TO one another by laws
made to hold dishonest men from
preying upon the public, and rail
roads must not expect to be exempt
from the common lot. The rate bill
may not better matters, but it will at
least show by its failure how they
may be better, and il will also serve
as a warning to INSCRIPTIONS rail
road officials that the people cannot
be defrauded beyond certain point.

The Goth, the brigade marched six
miles south on the Murfreesboro Pike.
The rear guard, commanded by the
author, had 10 wait at our old camp
two hours for some wagons During
this time several aristocratic- looking
slave owners, followed by a train OF
little darkies, came to the vacant
encampment, and began TO gather up
the many half.worn garments cast of
by our boys. | said TO one of the
men: 81 thought you Tennesseeans
hated us Yankees so bitterly you
would disdain TO pick up our old
clothes" He replied; 20, they will
do for the niggers TO wear" BY my
orders the guards soon had every rag
heaped upon fires, deeming il best
not TO furnish rebel spies suitable
uniforms in which 10 enter our lines.
We pitched our tents that evening
on an old rebel encampment. Here
we made our first acquaintance with
those army pests commonly called
"greybacks." The rebels had, like
ourselves, left cast-of garments,
which appeared TO be too lousy even
for "niggers' clothing
Our mode Of picketing at this time
was to station a platoon out on ali
the roads leading into camp, and as
John Morgan was reported TO be
scouting around Lebanon, Tenn,
our pickets manifested great watch
fulness.
The 30th, the Twenty-third Ken
lucky and the Ninth Michigan re-
sumed the march southwark, Colonel
Barnes being ordered to remain here
few days with the Eighth Kentucky
aud furnish men and teams 10 cut and
haul timber to rebuild the railroad
bridge over Mill Greek, recently bur.
ned by the retreating rebels. The rank
and file Of the Eighth were much dis
pleased 10 be left behind and do
"drudgery," as some OF the officers
called it, while other regiments, no
more experienced, we're ordered on
front, where probably fights and
lame awaited them, and the Eighth
were just spelling" for battle. Big

The Rate BiIl.

No proposed law for many years
has stirred the country as has the
rate bill. That there are great in
terests back OF the opposition TO the
bill is evident from the efforts being
made to defeat the law. Doubtless
there are railroads that have the
ability TO see that their best asset is
satisfied constituency. But, on the
other hand, there are roads that con-
duct their business on the principle
that actuated VIM. Vanderbilt when
he said, damn the public" to an
appeal from some one 10 remember
the public in his administration Of
his roads. Many say now that il IS
hard that a man cannot run his bust
ness as he has a mind 10. This is
true in a certain sense, though there
are several considerations which tend
TO modify the general statement. In
the first place no man or corporation
has the right TO ''do what he will
with his own" There is a higher
law than the law Of the stomach and
pocket. Everything that is in the
hands of human beings belongs to all
in a way. No man can live for him
self alone and still continue to rise in
the scale of life. And a corporation is
only an association Of men. This is
where Rockefeller has made great
mistake. While posing as a Christ
ian, he has done, through his corpor-
alton, things that link him with the
beasts and savages.
And in the case of corporations,
such corporations as railroads in
particular, that are possible only
through the grant of certain privil-
eyes of eminent domain, something
more is owing to the public. IL l
ask for privileges from my fellows, |
must hold these privileges in such a
way as at least not to harm those
who have granted them to me. And
railroad, that has been made posi-
BILE by the gift of a right of way,
owes something to the public that
has given il its franchise. Here has
been the source of trouble. Some of
the railroads, falling into the hands
of greedy and selfish men, have been
conducted, not in the interests of the
public, which has contributed 30
much toward making the roads posi-
BILE, but in the interests of those who
have gained the control Of the roads,

not many people who will not

flowers to pieces without even
asking for them. When a person

BAKING POWDER AGAIN.
Alum Goods That Masquerade as "HiQh
g Class Powders.

The Retailers Journal, Chicago,
says that the claims of the 25 cen,
alum baking powders are an imposi
ton, both on the consumer and the
retailer. The difference between
the cost of manufacture of a 10 cent
alum baking lowder and a 25.cent
one is not distinguishable; in fact,
1t was stated recently by an officer Of
'the Alum Baking Powder Associa
ton that they both come out of the
same barrel.
The cost to make an alum baking
powder is about two Cents a pound,
When this powder is sold at Is cents
pound 1t would not appear to the
average consumer as 'high grade
baking powder sold at moderate
price," but rather as very low grade
taking powder sold at high price.

der is alum, a mineral acid, well
