Addreae the office or the publlaher. The fusion county ticket this year is pretty strongly O’Neillized. --- Wheu the democrats are dissatisfied with the tariff law, its pretty good evidence that the law is all right. With a clean ticket and a united party Holt county republicans go into the campaign this year well equipped for victory. Tariff revenues show a substantial increase since the lenactment of the new law. The Increase comes not from advanced schedules but from greatly increased importations. Another trial of tiie primary adds additional evidence that it is an ex pensive system in which the people take but little interest. About one voter in seven went to the polls Tuesday on an average, although there were many precincts where none appeared but the election board. ■ + • »■ Our esteemed democratic contem porary is warming over its old argu ment against the scavenger tax act and applying it to the new tariff law. The law just enacted by congress re duces the tariff on articles of common use and advances the schedules on luxuries Indulged mostly by million aires. Perhaps this is why the In depent regards the law as "infamous.” Harry Thaw hasn’t been able to turn the trick. He escaped the elec tric chair on the plea of Insanity, but the plan ends there and he has to remain in the crazy house. His long fight has ended in a failure to be re leased. The decision of the court sus tains the sensible theory that if a man is acquitted of a murder charge because he is crazy he is a proper sub ject of public restraint.

Educational Notes. By tlie County Superintendent. The five thousand children of school age living in Holt county will, within a few days, respond to the call of the school bell. That these live thousand children, as well as all the other children in the state of Nebraska, may find school buildings and grounds as attractive, comfortable, convenient and sanitary as it is possible to make them, State Superintendent E. C. Bishop has designated Thursday, August 86,1909, “House Cleaning Day.” It is much easier to keep school property in good condition when pupils find good conditions existing at the beginning. Every school build ing should be freshly scrubbed before the opening of school, and other things needing attention should be properly cared for. The following quotation from former State Superin tendent W. K. Fowler is printed in the August number of the Nebraska Teacher: “Section 13 of subdivision four of the school laws makes it the duty of the district board to provide the necessary appendages for the schoolhouse and to keep the same In good condition and repair during the time school shall be taught. But why let the schoolhouse and school grounds become like a forgotten cemetery during the summer? Mow the grass and weeds. Paint and plaster the school-house, hang the door on its hinges, repair the lock, build up the chimney, straighten up the lightning rods, put in the window glass, blacken the stove aad pipe, re place that brick with a stove foot, provide poker and ash pan, fix the doorstep, rebuild or remove the fences, beautify the grounds by plant ing trees: encourage the children to plant the trees, vines and flowers and above all, we insist on healthful con ditions for both mind and body at the outhouses; they should cease to be hellholes of vulgarity and obscenity, which is too often the case.” Nebraska employs nearly ten thous and teachers yearly. The state superintendent writes that there is in the state a sutilcient number of certificated teachers to supply all schools opening at the beginning of the school year. School directors of the county snould bear this in mind and not encourage teachers without certifi cates to apply for schools. No emer gency exists, hence, there will be no need to issue emergency certificates this year. It is the duty of every school board to engage a qualified teacher and then by visiting the school frequently, determine whether or not the pupils are making proper advancement. The State Fair will be held at Lin coln, September 6-10, Holt county will be represented in the educational de partment, “Class L,” by a county exhibit in Educational Hall. Only work on which diplomas were given at the county exhibit on June 5th will be taken to the state exhibit. The work to be taken is to be mounted on thirty cards 22 by 28 inches. Those attending the fair from nolt county are invited to visit the educational department and com pare the work of your children from other counties in Nebraska. Stuart. Arthnr Jilson was so unfortunate as to have one of his shoulders dislo cated, Tuesday forenoon, while at work In the field. He came to town at once and Dr. Colburn attended the injury. Lynn Shank left for Ames, la, Tuesday morning, to look over the engineering department of the big state school, there, with a view to entering as a student, for the next term. He will also go to Lincoln and see what the University has to offer along the line of study which he wishes to sollow. Nature has provided for us In a bountiful manner so far as wild fruit is concerned. There are thousands of bushels of sand-cherries and choke cherries of fine quality going to waste on the prairies. It is a pity they could not all be utilized, as by cook ing apples with them they make an excellent jelly. The wild plums and grapes will come later, and there is an abundance of both. Atkinson. From present indications Atkinson will not have her school building this year, as the building committee are unable to get any bid within the amount $13,500, at their disposal, to erect the building, and the committee have about decided not to make any further effort at this time to build, as even if they succeeded in getting a satisfactory bid it would be too late to finish the mason work before cold weather set iu, and as there seems no assurance of getting a bid within the money the only thing left for them to do is to be supplied with more money or not build until material and labor are not at a premium.—The Graphic. Tha Red Sea. lu the Red sea reefs of bright pink corul are clearly to be seen. Much of the rocky bed of this sea Is the work of the coral insect. But probably the true reason for the name of the Red sea Is because ulong Its eastern shore lies ancient Edom. This word signifies “red.” It was given to the region not from the color of its sandstone hills, but from its people. These are the descendants of him w4io came in faint and weary from hunting and said to his brother, “Feed me, I pray thee, with that snme red pottage, for I am faint;” therefore was his name called Edom.
