Tho hnll was filled with men nnd women from various parts of tho district. They were honored by tho prcsenco of Grand Master L.

This Injustice between agriculture nnd corporations must bo redressed, 'hence the necessity of farmers attending primary meetings nnd electing delegntcs nnd In structing them to vote for candidates who nre fnvornble to tho agricultural interests. In alluding to the tariff ho said If the man. ufneturer Is protected tho former should bo protected on the raw material, and advised fanners to discuss tho tariff question In nil its bearings. England has taken posses sion of the Indies, which is supposed to be productive in wheat, nnd if she can get her supply from thnt quarter likely will not purchase from the United Status. Napo Icon tried to make Franco self-sustaining, nnd the making of sugar from" beets began in that country, and England ridiculing tho effort gavo rise to n humorous cartoon t A Frenchman handing nn Englishman n beet saying, ''Take It, Johnny, there's 6ugar in It." Instend of tho United Stntcs Importing $10,000,000 worth each of sugar and jute, we should raise them In our own country. Paying public olllccrs nnd school tenchers niglier salaries is all very .well, but tho farmer does not receive 50 cents n day for his labor, counting thu help of his family. If these salaries nro In creased farmers must be lu a position to meet calls made upon them. He Impress ed upon farmers their duties In relation to the State Agricultural College, and that ng. rlcultural societies should elect' three del. cgates to attend tho annual convention the last week In Juno nt the collcire. to elect trustees for the same ; that difference of opinion Is no crime, but farmers must be uultid If they wish to remedy existing evils. The address f Grand Master 11119110 was listened to with great attention, was high ly spoken of afterwards, and will long be remembered as an eloquent, truthful und able setting forth of the causes that do. press farmers.

Lillkv & Sr.Ei'i-v Vliut nre County HiiperlntcnclciilH Uood for 7 The nbovo question has been often put nnd the following answers have been glv. cm "I give It up," "I don't know," "They nro no good," "Give me something easy," Arc; What harm do county superlntcn dcn,ts do? This question, unless by n lew whb feel nggrleved, Is answered lu about the same way as the first. That such questions should be asked ut nil and that they should bo so answered would plainly argue that tho good or bad so far done by the county superintendents hns been so small ns to deserve the name of mlcroscop Ic. I have no hesitancy whatever In say. ing that a great majority of superlntcn dents have been no more than n hindrance to the advancement of popular education that many havo brought discredit upon our schpol system, while a very few were capable of performing and did perform the duties of the office as the law Intended that they should. Many persons, with good reasons, think that the olllce should be abolished as useless. I could not agree with them In this. The olllce, I think, Is good and necessary one. -The fault lies I tho men heretofore elected to tho otllco nnd In our directum for electing such men County supeilntendents nre, ns u rule practical politicians such men ns elecl themselves to office. No one who is fit for the olllco can engage In anything of tl kind. No one who can adorn the office can stoop so low. It is dragging our pub. lie school system, the most liberal In con ccpttou in tho whole world, In the dust to have those who aspire and are elected to its head beirclnp; for votes. It Is bad enough to have men do so where such high stnndard of morality is not so abso. lutely necessary "as in this office. The of- lice pays enough nnd It was the Intention to, have for it men of the purest morality nnd ripest scholarship, and men who tnk n deep and disinterested interest in th cause of popular education. Such men will not electioneer nnd nre therefore not elect cd. For this office, as for all others, th least worthy are most determined In their demands. There aro many crood things which superintendents can do if they be moral und competent ; hut if Immoral and Incompetent they will bring dishonor not only upon themselves as they havo done and upon tho olllco as they haye done, but upon tho wholo system of w)ilch they wero elected to the head. Tho first und foremost duty of the coun ty superintendent Is like that of tho watch dog. If wo wero alwnys sure of getting supply of good teachers there would he no need of him nt all. Those who uro lenst worthy to teach ure the most pcrscvcrln In their efforts to obtain u license and school. They leave no menus, worthy or otherwise, untried. With thu most careful watching ot honest and competent super. llitendents there will creep Into our schools men who will disgraco thdm nnd will do very much harm In corrupting the pupil thereof. There Is 110 place in which youth will learn wickedness so readily ns where lewdness and wickedness ure set in nu thority over them. What would you ex. pect wero the superintendent himself Im moral? What could you expect whero ho employed imprupcrjitid unbecoming means to secure his election ? Is it too much to bay that If lie presumed to bribe others that he. can himself bu bribed ? This mat ter of morality In our teachers. Is too, much neglected. It should bo tho first qualifica tion, and without It no superintendent should presumo to grant a certificate. 1'hcn of ull men tho superintendent, whose duty It Is to keep unworthy persons out of w schools, should bo most moral and dls. corning. Ha should not only bo incorrupt but Incorruptible. There Is about as much henso In electing un Impure man to this plllce ns In making S.itnn the gatekeeper of heaven. Cannot our schools bo kept out of politics? If they cannot, then I say It would be better not to have any pub llo schools. Can only those who will electioneer bo elected superintendent ? If to, then 1 would say abolish the office by nil means. Such men can do 110 good In the olllce. Besides being a wntch dog tho superin tendent has another Important duty to per form. Our public schools nro behind tho nge. In many places teaching Is conduct fil lit the glow and unnatuial ways ot'60 years ago, lit everything else great Int. provements have been made. Tncre Is no puo who can do-half ns much for thu lm. provement of our schools as the superlu. jeudent, If ho bo thu right man. There Is pu one who can keep thu schools back as io can uipl has douo. Ouo who has taught for well nigh n half century, and who Is an author of somo renown, told mo (hat ot the many superintendents he had Pict many of whom ho taught he found them us it rule more deficient, than the teachers they were lo examine. Such men cannot cud the public schools on, und they will not allow thu schools to go be. youd themselves. Wu should have men lit this olllco who arc scholars, who nro the most skillful teachers' nnd who aro pos. sesscd of good judgment. ,Wd should havo men who nro nilthorlty lit learning. a should havo men who can tako the lend In tho cause of public education nnd not bo ns n mlllstono about tho necks of our schools. Wo should have men of horn wo need not feel ashamed when they tnlk on school matters. Were It not such n serious mutter somo of tho cxntnlna tlons of our superintendents would make nn excellent comedy. Their attempts lo ap pear learned, to conceal their Ignorance by asking questions which they cannot them selves Intelligently explain and which do or. not In any way appertain to the subjects to lie taught In our schools or tho manners of presenting tho subjects that nro tnught, Aro most ccrtnlnly ridiculous. I should llko lo write a piece on this. If you want Ihc right kind of men you must not wnlt for them to beg for tho office and promise on, who know nothing of tenchlng, that .they will conduct It to suit you. Such men, It they aro not, ought ut least to be nbove such business. You who nre a fnrmcr, employ n man to plow. You can tell as soon ns you see him nt work whether ho can or cannot plow. But If you employ a teacher you cannot tell by seeing him nt work, If lie bo it teacher. You must tako his own word or the word of some teacher. You must take tho word of tho superintendent. Ho Is paid to determine who nro nnd who arc not teachers of those who desire to teach, Would It not then bo very absurd to have for this olllco a man who knows little nnd Is a poor or Indifferent teacher himself. Is n man who graduated nt n normal school and simply because of such graduation n fit man ? Is n man who graduated at it college nnd simply because of such gradu atlon n fit man ? I say no. He should first show himself a skillful teacher and n loader in educational matters. With such men all over tho State In this office our schools will catch up to the age. I he su perintendent will bo free to act ns he knows best and will be free from nnd uncontnml- natcd by politics. F. HECK. Lllley & SIcppy's low prices nro playing smnsh. Low prices nro doing It.

Every good thing has Its host of Imita tors : every genuine article Its counterfeit, Bad manners nnd wicked habits have theirs also; hut he who shams the bad never boasts of It, while they who ape tho virtues of the good or simulate the gciiuine never hesltato to placo the counterfeit be fore the public in their most alluring tones. When these people Imitate they ol. ways cliooso a pronounced typo or popular subject to cony from 1 and when they claim to be us "good as "Ho-nnd-So," or to sell nn article equal to "So-and-So, ' the public may depend upon It that Mr. So- nnd-So" nnd his article ure nlwnys the best of the kind. Thus tho sham Is always proving the genuine merit of the thing it copies. A tlrm of enterprising gentlemen pro. ducc nnd popularize nn article of house hold use, such ns the Hoyal Baking Pow der, whose convenience, usefulness and real merit make for Itself an Immense nnd universal sale. A hundred imitators arise, on every band, and as they hold out their sham articles to the public, yelp in chorus, "Buy this ; it's lust as good as Uoyal, and much cheaper 1" The Hoyal Baking Pow del is thu standard the world over, and its imitators in their cry that theirs Is "as good as Hoyal" are all the time emphasiz ing this fact.
