There are 860000 employes in the
service of the railways in the United
SUites according to latest report They
ask for an increase of about 30 cents
per day which seems at least a reason
able demand This would at once put
into the channels of trade 87000000
which is now hoarded by the Goulds
Vanderbilts and other 11 E Kings
The Keeley movement for the past
year cuts off nearly 20000000 from
the liquor traffic or 132202 barrels
of liquor for which a new market must
be found The records at various
Keeley institutes throughout the
country are said to show that rising
83000 men have taken the Keeley
treatment for drunkeness Dr Keeley
claims that on an average there have
been lapses of only five per sent
amonghis graduates From what is
known of the characters ol the men
who take the treatment 250 a year
would be a low estimate for the ex
penditure of each for drink
SCHOOL DEPARTMENT
Tliis department is in charge of C W King
County Superintendent and is edited and pub
lished in the interests of the t Cherry county
schools
Teachers Class
The following facts have been
brought to our attention a number of
tirnes
Virst Quite a number of the teach
ers of this county are teaching on
permit which is due to a deficiency
in their knowlege of the common
branches
Second A large number are teach
ing without any previous trainiug in
Theory ana Art of Teaching
Third The teachers of this county
live so far from any formal School
that they cannot afford the expense
incured by traveling from 300 to 500
amies to get the proper training for
their work In view of these facts it
has been urged that a elass for teach
ers be organized in the Valentine
High school during the coming winter
months The number of recitations
in this department will not allow us to
form many new classes but we think
any teacher of the county can be ac
comodated in the following branches
which will he taught the coming win
ter term Arithmetic U S History
Physiology Geography Grammar
Word Analysis Drawing Penmanship
Civil Govt of Neb Algebra English
Literature and Theory and Art of
Teaching In the last named subjects
the class will be allowed to observe
recitations conducted in the other de
partments of this school every few
days where they will see the best
methods put into practice in the lower
grades by first class teachers

School Government
Looking at all the teacher dose we
may call it the process of teaching A
process in school work is now gener
ally held to be an act of a complex
nature one made up of independent
-and inter related parts Teaching
then would name all the systematic
work done by the teacher The prin
cipal kinds of teaching are organiza
1 tion government and instruction By
organization the teacher puts each
pupil where he may work most econ
omically He is placed so as to work
with ohers of wthe same ability and
same knowledge Instruction is the
direction Avhich the teacher gives the
pupil in order to induce him to master
the subjects he studies Government
so far as organization is concerned has
for its immediate purpose the keep
ing intact of the arrangement of class
es secured by it Government secures
4rder which is a neccessity for instruct
ion for that purpose Besides its im
mediate ends government has a re
mote end wrhichris the discipline of
trTVpupil in habits of order and polite
vness JSow the point aimed at in this
afrticle the relative amount of the
feacheis energy which should properly
be oxtened on organization govern

ant amount If we ask ourselves
what we shall think of a teacher who
expend two thirds of this energies on
government however much good gov
ernment is to bedesireri the answer
isneither far nor difficult to seek esvis
cerated teacher a pedagogic fraction
whose numerator is too small to make
him of much real value as cin educat
ing force Two thirds of ones energy
givento suppress whispering to silence
batteries of masticate paper pulp to
insure the epidermis of one part of the
school against the inverted pin points
of the other and such like Restraints
of unemployed juvenile humanity is a
waste of power That two thirds of
energy is due to instruction Days
of danger and nights of wakening
about control show a fatal want of
skill which if not speedily overcome
will send its unfortunate to
the limbs of failure Hehas no cen
trol She or he would have
been a good teacher if
they could have governed such a
teacher would do nothing but walk up
down the room straightening then
out these are symptoms of one mala
d a failure to instruct properly
There are no doubt persons who are
inhabited by a demond of disorder

all the evil spirits in a hehool room

of mischief into a deep sea of disorder
Such are beyond human skill and hu
man endurance But the failure of
ordinry mortals in school govern ment
are traceable to bad instruction more
than to any other source Here are
the principle pills in Pandoras box
note teaching text book work alone
loose jointed tests which try nothing
but the pupils ingenunity to deceive
the teacher Words with no attempt
to dig down to a solid stratum of
ideas perpetual play over the surface
of ideas and to grapple with their sig
nificence Masses of undigested infor
mation pitched at the pupil without
the solvent thought The foci of this
question are covered by a simple and
plain principle Instruct so as to
work up and energize the pupils intel
lect and government becomes a light
and easy matter If the pupil is in
terested in thinking of a subject he
will not descend into the low ooze of
law breaking and constructive
er The intellects which think vigor
ously the truth necessarily color the
wills that go with them with the trath
of right action
