Journal. A Law Status at lash, A law ought to be passed fixing the status of dead beats. A man who hires another and fails to pay him or purchase goods or anything of value from our merchants or business men without any in- of pays is guilty of fraud. The law treats as a thief the secures money or goods by false pretense or takes them stealth. The dead beat ought to be treated the same way for he in fact belongs to the same class. By the unwritten law of trade and commerce he makes false statements with intent whenever he obtains a credit that is never He is undoubtedly just as guilty as any man who by the same lays himself liable to the law. Any man who is unfortunate ard really unable to keep his contract get all the time he needs by acting in a fair and hon manner.

The column in your paper will be an aid to education in our county if the teachers will only inn lest enough interest to keep the principle going. To write a few lines for in our column does not require a great effort, and if some of the teachers will take one sixteenth of the interest it that was taken in and at the in the educational column will become very interesting. I know young ladies haven't a great preference for writing letters for public perusal, but it is a well fact that young men have done such things, and it looks to me like some of our male might modify their subjects give us a piece for Educational Depart- I do not mean by the above to exclude ladies by any means. I know the ladies are just as com- to give us interesting as any the male teach- and I think if the will only give us a start ladies will follow, for it is already a tact that a is going to have the last word anyhow. Some may say they not able or write a piece, but there was not a issued to one at all who is not fully competent to give us something interesting on the subject of education. Most of the teachers in this county arc ladies so I must say to them that we cannot get along without them. Let's see who is the first to write us a piece. Don't be timid or bashful, but just take you pen blaze away. I hope none of the male teachers are too timid . to write us a but I guess all right. Such weeds don't grow in a man's crop.

The following story is told to show how far he could be carried by bis dislike for anything. bad a natural antipathy for geese. The sight them or fierce cackling would stir his anger make him swear. One day while the was driving along the big road, far in country, he came up with a drove of geese. They were out of sight of any house and for once he felt that he could even up Mr. Goose. He pulled his horse and culled to geese, as they waddled along the side path, close by road. Now was Dr. chance, the one he had longed for. His buggy whip, a bran new raw bide that cost two dollars the day before, was long keen and with but little effort he could wrap it around lead gander's saucy neck. Ho wits equal to the occasion, and rising upon his feet, bit the fire of a man seeking revenge. The lash crack- ed like a pistol shot, the geese yelled, rose and flew away.
