The day was hot, the train crowd
ed and the man reading his news
paper was tired and cross. Across
the aisle sat women with a curly
haired little boy who had made
friends with most of his neighbors,
but had not been able to warm the
heart of the man with the newspa-
per. The latter had purchased an
orange from the train boy, and was
still holding it in his hand when he
glanced up to find the little boy at
his elbow, with eloquent eyes fixed
on the orange. Finally-moved,
perhaps, by the gaze of his fellow
passengees, who certainly expected
him to give the orange up-the man
thrust it ungraciously into the little
fellows hand, and went on reading,
''Dear," said the child's mother
gently, "what do you say to the gen
tleman for giving you the nice
Granger"
The youngster walked over again,
shyly, and trusting forward the
orange in friendly little fist, said

Dissatisfaction Among The
Schools.

According to the Meade Globe
of Jan. 30th, there is some dis
satisfaction among the Men
nonites, regarding schools.
Some of the patrons are keep
ing their children at home and
feel that they are being imposed
on, wnen instructed by the
truarcy officer to keep the child
| rem at school.
An investigation will show that
since last September less than
half of the children of school
ages in Dist. 81, have made any
pretense of attending English
school. Conditions in several of
the neigh boring districts are no
better.
If these people are willing to-
send their children to English
school five months IN year, as
one of the patrons states why
are they not there now?
II is evident that five months
is too long term, Judging by
the continual truancy reports.
The statement that other coun-
ties in the state support German
schools through taxation will
bear investigation. If such is
the case, it is done unlawfully.
Instead ofgranting any further
concessions to the settlement
districts, the present law should
be rigidly enforced. 1t means
much to the rising generation,
should be encouraged to acquire
as good an English education as
is possible, instead of being ham,
pered and prevailed upon to stay
away from school. as many of
them are now.
1t is hopeless to expect these
boys and girls to become Ameri-
canized and to develop into de-
sirable citizens, without the en-
tightening influence of the public
schools.
1t behooves everyone interest
ed in the welfare of the Men
nonites of Meade county to agi-
tate for a rigid enforcement of
the school laws, and to see that
the English schools are not side
tracked, to make room for an
education that is un-American
and, therefore undesirable.

given every possible chance to do Il little

and England, fearing Cupid may not
get on his job soon enough have arranged
all preliminary details which they hops
will result in a real love match. 1t is
rare according to court attendants that
royal families do not do as Emperor

bring the Prince of Wales and the

Suppose DR.. Cole is correct in his con

If he is correct then we must conclude
that honest men. men who have made the

Every democrat should use his power

tain the action of the democratic presi

change conditions so as to make with ali
sOlute correctness a true and perfect ad
justment between the producer and con-
sumner. There must be more or less eX

that so soon as it is discovered that any
industry of the country suffers by reason
Of the tariff or other law a change will
be made to meet that condition.
We may expect the calamity howlers
to yell against the pending tariff bill az
they did under the Wilson law. We may
have another CoXey army march TO the
Capital as we had under the Cleveland
administration. We may expect that
every power and influence will be used
by the great mOnopolies, money trusts
and combines to create a panic.
We know that a few men, all republi
cans. can combine and tie up the money
and business of the country as to
bring about that panic. and thus deludc

Restore the republican party to power
