FRIDAY, MARCH 15, 1895.
Tho ladies of Rod Cloud, Nobrnska. '
got out an edition of ono of tho local
papers in that town last week. Two
former Clintonians had a finger in tho
pie. The wife of Frank V. Taylor was
nianoging editor, and Mrs. Fred Hos
nier wnn ono or tho reporters, ino pa
per was sprightly and spicy. As tho
women had only to faco a frowning
world for one weok thoy said a good
many sharp things that would bring
endless wrath on them if they wero tho
regular editors. They had a woll writ
ton obituary notice of Mra. Tulleyp, who
died recently, an aunt of County Supt.
Hattio P. Wilson.-Clinton (Illinois)
Public.
Tiif. CiiiF.r bol loves that there Is a de
mand in Red Cloud for an ordinanco
providing for n board of health with
power to net in all cases where tho
health of tho community is jeopardized.
Them is a lack of sanitary measures in
Red Cloud and nt various times the peo
plo havo been put in jeopardy by woll
meaning people who did so unthought-
edly. This is not a porsonnl articlo but
a gentle reminder that tho lives of .1,000
peoplo Bhould be taken into consider
ation at all times, and that the greatest
euro should bo taken to guard against
all infectious diseases without regard to
person or persons. This is a duty that
wo owo ourselves as well as tho
community. This should bn dono,
not only to protect our peoplo this your,
but to protect them at all times. Give
ub aboard of hoalth.
"No, ma'am," said Wallace Wright to
a young wifo who waa looking for a
picco of tinware in their storo tho othor
day, "wo have coffco pots and ton pots,
but wo haven't a jack pot in tho houso,
nnd I don't boliovo you will find ono in
any hardwaro Btoro in Red Cloud." "I
am so sorry," said tho innocent young
wife, whoso anxiety to pleaso hor hus
band mado Wallace's bacholor heart
throb as ho wished ho had a wifo who
would be aa earnest in Booking his com
fort. "You Beo," said tho young wife,
'wo have not beon marriod long, und my
husband always lived with his mother,
who ia an oxcollont cook, nnd when 1
heard him muttering in hia sleep about
a jack pot, I thought I would surpriBo
him by buying ono. Ho mentions it bo
often that it must bo a good thing. Can
you toll mo what thoy cook in it?" bIio
asked of Wallace. "GroonB, ma'am,"
said Wallace, and ho sont hor ovor to see
if Peter Shea had such an articlo an a
jack pot in stock.
i ..
In tho last issuo of tho Bolt wo no
ticed a personal fling at Prof. Castor,
that wo believo doea that gentleman a
groat injustico. Theodltor of thin papor
haa been in Red Cloud twelve years and
in that short period haa found that the
Bchoola, prior to tho coming of Prof.
Castor, had boen mismanaged to a great
extont, with porhnpa ono or two excep
tions. There seemed to bo but little
system and no government in those
years. However, with the coming of
Prof. CaBtor, the echoola took on now
interest, good attendance, fowor tardioa,
good behavior and a more gonoral inter
est was manifested in all department.
Of course a school with tho number of
pupils and patrons of our public schools
oouldnotbo carried on without some
friction, and without Borne one disliking
tho superintendent; that ia to bo ex
pected, Wo do not bolleve howevor
that tho charges made by our ostoomed
contemporary will stand to be scrut
inized. Somo of the teachers have bo
corao dissatisfied and rosignod but Thk
Ciiif.p doea not bellovo for a momont
thnt Professor Castor haa boon instru
mental in thoir resigning, unlosB ho
thought it waa best for tho schools. It
is easy for peoplo to make charges, but
not bo easy to provo them. Suppose tho
board of education should put anyone of
tho few grumblers at tho houd of the
schools, how long could thoy bo able to
do the professor's work! Not long. They
may say all tho mean things thoy deslro
about Prof. Castor, but there is ono
thing thoy ennnot Bay, und that is that
he has not brought order out of chaos
in our publlo schools and placed thorn
on a foundation bucIi na the havo novor
boon placed upon before, in tho history
or thoir establishment. This is an ago
of grumbling and people oftimea gruin
blo from forco of habit. Tho board of
education, as tho roproBontntiveB of tho
peoplo look to and expect tho superin
tendent to carry on tho achocla buccobb-
fully, nnd whon he does hia wholo duty,
somo crumble, especially if their ox ia
gored. Tho proper thing to do is to up
hold the Buporintondont and teachors in
all thoir laudiblo efforts to give tho peo
ple tho worth of thoir money invest
ed in our great and growing school in
toreste. Personal spites and potty (lings
ehould not enter into consideration in
discussing school issues. Our contem
porary should forboar.
