Professors Adams and Trainer have kindly consented to continue their work upon a suggestive course of study for the Polk county schools and have submitted the following for the columns of The Star. It is something unusual for a paper of a general or of local circulation to offer the use of its columns to the public schools; The Star is ever abreast of public progress and will spare no pains to further the interests of any needed reform or im- pavement in any direction. The common schools are the peoples col- leges and a well educated people IS the unit of the state; give us an in- telhgent people and we will find a progressive and influential state.

CHICAGO. Oct. 25.--The Tribune
prints the following from its Wash

To this dispatch, was added in the

Such ruling against the publIca-
