The Red Cloud Chief, i
A. C. HOSMER,
Proprietor
FRIDAY. MAKCH 14. 1884.
As the eagles gather about the car
cass, so thousands of hiftnan vultures
gather at the national capital at con
gressional sessions to fatten on unclean
legislation, such as railroad jobs, land
grabs, star route schemes, fraudulent
claims, building contracts, supply bids,
and-so-forth, through: and endless cat
alogue of schemes to drain the public
treasury. It is estimated that no less
than 25,000 adventurers have loafed in
Yashington this winter, whose sole ob
ject appears to be in pursuit of some
tbing that leads to unlocking the vaults
ci the treasure, or to clutch hold of
hush-money or stocks that may be
squeezed out of corporations which seek
to get favorable bills lobfeied through
congress. This class of people are
known in Washington as "The Third
House', which, when organized for ac
tive work, can generally manage to
control enough congressmen to fore
stall and overrule the statute-books
which turn out by the schemes of loby
istd rather than enactments the
people's representatives. They are
blood-bills, from which such vultures
as tho star route thieves and land grant
thieves manage to draw their craven
followers. The Boss Sheppard paving
contracts, the city gaslight contracts,
the Potomac flats contracts are notable
instances where "the third house" ruled
the people.
r
Fro Iaavale to Blae Hill.
The train being somewhat late we
were obliged to stand for sometime en
joying the cool air and .waiting for it
The party consisted of Prof. Feltham,
ofRiverton, Profs. F. B. Smith, I. O.
Walker, and other teachers from Ina
vale ; Prof. D. J. Judson, Supt, Spring
er 'and others from Red Cloud. At
Blue Hill we were kindly met by ft
large delegation consisting of one man
who, feeling kind toward the teachers,
invited us one and all to his house to
dinner, and as it was the only invita
tion we received it is needless to add
that we accepted it. As we were wend
ing our way up the street we were met
by our own Prof. Funk, who kindly
shook us by the hand. We soon reach
ed the house and after the usual
preliminaries of registering our names
and so forth, we at lost seated our
selves to a sumptuous repast consisting
of pork, scolloped herring and weak
tea. Having finished our meal we pro
ceeded to pay 'our .35cts. apiece and
started on an inspecting tour around
the town. Five minutes showed us
nothing very blue, and no. very large
hill, eo we wended our way to the
school house, where we were soon fol
lowed by about forty other teachers.
About 2 o'clock we were called to
order, after which we bad singing by
the house, and. prayer by the presi
dent. A short lecture on the errors of!
speech, with illustrations, by Miss Put
nam, was next in orcfer, followed by
short speeches from Springer, Felt
ham, Judson, and others on the same
subject. Next came a few remarks by
Supt. Springer, Profs. Feltham, Jud
son, and Miss King, on intermediate
j:ramraar. Then we were let 'out to
enjoy a recess of fifteen minutes.
After we were called to order. The
next in order being the debate. Tnree
judges were chosen, viz: Miss F. L.
Knight, Mrs. C. G. Wilson and Miss E.
A. Putnam. Mr. Watkins opened the
debate with a soul stirring speech,
lauding the teachers and the press to
the highest, but signally failing to in
troduce any argument wherein the
press exerted any influence on society.
He was followed by Mr. 8mitb, of Ina
vale, who utterly squelched him in a
few minutes, besides brining abundant
proof to bear on his side of the ques
tion. Mr. Watkins again spoke at con
siderable length, introdncing a new
line of argument, but as before failing
to produce but few points in favor of
the pre. He. was again followed by
3Ir. Smith who, this. time, completely
demolished him.showing plainly that
the influence of the teacher was far
ahead of that of the press. He spoke
about 20 minutes, during which time
he held his audience spell bound "as it
were." Mr. Walking is a good talker,
but totally incapable of of handling
such a; question, while Mr. Smith is
not only a gooAtelker but is perfectly
, capable of handling thm question or
any other. The judges decided unani
mously in favor f the negative. After
the debate we listened to Prot Funk
lor about twenty miaatea on inter
mediate.'reading. We were then ad
journ ed-to meet on the second Satur-
uy ju Apni, at jua Cloud, We at
ia?r. touna ourselves safely on the road
home, entirely satisfied with our trip

EDUCATIONAL NOTES.
The Webster county teacher's aaso
ciation met at Blue Hill, March 8, and
and a good number of teachers were
present The program was carried out
and much of interest was developed in
the discussions. The principal matter
of interest was the debate on the ques
tion; Resolved, that the printing press
has a greater influence on society than
the teacher. Affirmative C. F. Wat
kins of the Times. Negative F. B.
Smith, of West Inavale. The disput
ants had two rounds at each other, and
both made some goodargument. Mr.
Watkins has been mentioned especial
ly for his fairness, courtesy and dignity
in carrying on the debate, Mr. Smith
was more impulsive, and at the same
time made more special points in his
arguments on account of which he was
declared by the committee as having
made the best argument. The com
mittee was Mrs. C. 6. Wilson, of Blue
Hill, Miss Fannie Knight of Inavale,
and Miss Ella Putnam, of Bed Cloud.
The teachers who went fram the Val
ley had a pleasant time, and on ac
count of the excursion rates so kindly
granted by Mr. Eustis of Omaha, quite
a number were enabled to attend. Am
ple arrangements were made by the
people of Blue Hill to entertain the
teachers, and all who went to the
school-house directly from the train
found invitations and to spare, to par
take of the necessaries of life, several
went away afterwards and remarked
thatlhey made preparations for com-
?any and none came to call on them,
he next association will be held at
Bed Cloud. Saturday. April 12. Pro
gram next week. C. W. S.
The Cheese BaaiacM.
At thef request of some of my neigh
bors on the south side of the river, I
wrote to some of my relatives on the
Western Reserve in Ohio, to, send us
an expert in the cheese business to op
erate a cheese factory on the Buffalo.
My friends inserted the request in their
county paper, and the result has been
quite a number of applicants for the
job. Now you can see by the report
of J. O. Chamberlin in your columns
that the cheese factory pays the farm
er as well as tbemanuiacturer of cheese,
and I hope to see the day that we can
have a factory in every precinct in the
county, and to aid those who want to
establish cheese factories in their com
munities, I send you the names and
addresses of the men that have written
to me. Nearly all haye sent referenc
es and offer to send more if necessary.
Some have sent their certificates as
having made the cheese that took tne
premium at the State .fair in Ohio.
We want all of these men in Webster
county and hope you will aid us all
you can in this enterprise.
Yours respectfully,
S. X. Richmond.

BULWER LYTTON'S BRIDGE.
Wliere it Touches the Shores and the Great
Columns in Midstream.
''What a beautiful bridge between
old age and childhood, is religion. How
intuitively the child begins with prayer
and worship on entering life, and how
intuitively, on quitting life, the old
man turns back to prayer and worship,
putting himself again side by side with
the infant," remarks Sir E. Bulwer
Lytton, in his "Strange Story."
Yes, but between its distant abut
ments the bridge of life has many high
and awful arches, through which the
wild waters dash and roar in wrath
and desolation. Prayer and worship
alone do not sustain these. Nature's
solid rocks must lie unshaken beneath,
and human art and skill must rear and
solidify the structure overhead. God's
will is" best exemplified in the laws He
has made for the creatures whom Ha
has placed under their control. Neither
the child's trustful "Our Father," nor
the old man's "Forget me not in tbe
midst of mine infirmities" will alter
this by the weight of a single grain.
Science and art first then faith and
Brayer is the order of Heaven itself,
livinity heals through its agents, and
those agents are the discoveries of
man; not the vague announcements of
prophets or seers. Is life a burden to
you? Does time drag? Is your power
to cope with life's problem and duties
weakened. You are not well. Your
blood is sluggish and tainted, perhaps ;
or some organ is torpid or overworked.
This fact may have taken the. form of
Dyspepsia, rneumausm, geui, inaiana,
pains in the stomach, chronic head
ache, or any of a dozen- other ills.
Parker's Tonic will invigorate you, as
fresh air invigorates those who have
been startup in damp, Jetid cells. It
