The Biblical had an
excellent article last week
the scion of the county
of public schools their
meeting st in regard to
compulsory education and other
matters pertaining to public
cation. It timely and
and ought to be read by every
member of. the before
any law is passed com
to attend school. We think
the time has not yet come for
compulsory education- With
those who can do the work
of their children bat are careless
to their education, such a law
would do some good. Sot with
a majority of our people sparing
their children when they are need
ed to work a greater item than
paying for a few tuition.
And union a law is passed
ding for other demands which com-
education cause, it
not bring about its object.
No one, however, is more anxious
for longer and better schools than
we have at present and we hope
everything practicable will be done
to improve the existing laws.

and that they were sure of victory.
I slept from midnight to daylight,

firing the redskins withdrew, excusing
their by saying that the evil
one had sent men with black faces to
blind their eyes. This referred to a few
soldiers who took a gallant part in
the defense.
About o'clock m the afternoon a
courier reached us. I knew, as did all
the others, long baton he reached us,
that he had no news. He told big
stories of tho of the Cheyennes,

During the entire day I had been

Mr. E. J. Hale, who was President
Cb eland's consul at Manchester. Bag-
has recently returned to America,
and has given expression to his
in England on the subject of our
trade relations with that country. What
he saw there has led him to the
that a high protective tariff is the
wont possible thing for us. This con-
is the result of an earnest study
of the English people and their
trial life.
When Mr. Hale went to England he
was much surprised to find that the
British manufacturers favored the
of a high protective tariff in the
United States. When he of Sir
Joseph C. Leo an explanation of this
fact that gentleman replied that a high
protective tariff in the United States
simply released to tho manufacturers of
Great Britain all the neutral markets of
the world. This was n sufficient reason
for the British manufacturers to desire a
continuation of tho high protective tariff
policy in the United States.
This view is also shared by Mr. Glad-
stone, who recently said that
although it might inflict incidental
collateral blows on other countries, did
far greater mischief to the people of the
country which adopted such a policy,
and whose people it plundered and de-
Mr. Halo says there is no doubt that
the greatest market in tho world for our
food products is tho English market.
This opinion is fully justified by the fact
that more than half of all our exports go
to England. On the other hand only
about one-fourth of our imports come
from that country. In view of these

knew that I had balked two of their

Roman Nose ever had.
An Indian sizes a man up according
to his deeds. They took my rifle, re-
and knife, but were very respect-
about it. I was then mounted on a
station horse, my feet tied under his
belly, and he was led behind a warrior's
will. There had been no opening for
escape, but was made now in a
manner totally unexpected.
The two gamblers got into a dispute
and three warriors approached to
quiet them. Some one was struck, and
this led to quite a row. The instant it
began I cast off the thongs, whirled
about, and at one jump I was beside a
pony. Five seconds later I was in the

I was out of the grove I was miss-

went to tho south fast as horseflesh
ever traveled the plains. Half a dozen
shots were fired after me from the grove,
they only added to oar speed. The
run lasted for ten miles before the pace
was decreased, and when night fell I had
added six or seven more. Until midnight
I kept jogging, bearing to the left to
the fort from the east. From
midnight to daylight I rested, and at
next morning was run on to by a
wagon train and escort proceeding to the
York Sun.

the club were wholly devoted to the pro-
motion of tariff reform, and it was,
without question, upon that issue that
the Democrats have fought and won
their congressional contests, although

a auxiliary. A brief re-
view of the club's activity during the

after tho of Mr.
Cleveland in 1888, the tariff reform com-
of tho club determined that it
would continue tho fight f ST reform
without diminution of energy, in season
and out of and until victory
should be achieved. It therefore map-
out a plan of campaign, more
systematically
than that upon which it had hitherto
operated, and immediately to
carry it out It required, however, a
very considerable sum of money, and
securing this was the first and no small
difficulty to overcome. To those who
were naked to contribute nothing the
way of results could guaranteed or
even reasonably promised; on the con-
it was necessary to confess frank-
to them that a large part of tho money
have to expended in
nary and apparently work. So
willing, however, to trust the sagacity
of tho tariff reform committee, and to
make great sacrifices, if necessary,
that good cause, were the members of the
club that about was finally sub-
and placed In the committee's
hands.
first work of the committee,
then, was to make a thorough canvass
of the voters of the state outside of the
larger cities. Next it caused to be
printed a large quantity of the most in-
tariff reform literature. In
this preliminary work about was
expended. The literature prepared was
then sent out continuously to the voters
upon the committee's list. This went
on uninterruptedly in 1889 and during
the present year. In addition, in the
spring of this year the committee organ-
tariff reform meetings at forty-
three county fairs, employing tho best
speakers as advocates of tho reform.

was sent into those states, agents of
the committee were dispatched to some
of them to aid local reformers in organ-
tariff reform movements upon the
lines adopted by the committee, and
during the campaign just closed speak-
were sent to points where help was
most needed in the fight for congress-
men.
committee's whole aim, in fact,
was to influence the congressional con-
tests and secure, if possible, a tariff re-
form majority in the house of represent-
success of its efforts is more
apparent, and is most remarkable, in
Iowa. The Democratic committee of
that state decided, wisely, think, to
concentrate Its energies upon the task
of saving the state ticket, believing that
another victory to that of last
year would more contributory to
success 1893 than the election
of Democratic congressmen now. It
therefore looked abroad for others to
take wholly off its shoulders the con-
campaign, and B. L. Hard-
of Tho Des Moines Leader, was
to make this overture, and to
co-operate with those who should re-
to his appeal. Mr. Harding came
to see us. We outlined to him tho plan
we had pursued In this state, and prom-
that if he would secure a canvass
of the voters in Iowa similar to the one
we had in this state we would
attend entirely to the business of supply-
the voters with literature.

with legs wide apart and his pike rest-
on his breast. The knapsack and
gun strapped to the soldier's back were
plainly to be seen, as were the pike and
the general outlines of the figure.
Presently the figure seemed to grow
in size, and to have a hat or cap in its
right hand. This was more than the
old mariner could stand. He called his
wife and children to view the
All now began to fade except
