The Lincoln Call is a rabid prohibi

article, has taken a fact and so distorted
it and magnified the distortion as to
make a huge affair out of it. He should
come np here, inquire into the good le
havior of the people of this city, and
make an abject apology for the injury
he has tried to do. As the city of Lin
coln is not to be held responsible for the
ravings of the Call, so Columbus is not
to be besmeared with slime because of
the foolish act of one man, universally
disapproved of hare.
THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Xeetiaff of the Boartt Report ot the Sup
natendeat. Showing an Cuprecctfentetl
Aiwag Attendance fur the Month The
PopUa Who Gained a Place on the Roll of
Hoaor.
The board of education met last
evening to discuss public scbool af
fairs, it being the regular monthly
meeting night. President Schup bach.
Vice President Taylor, Secretarv
Davis and Messrs. Kramer and Henry
were present. Tile superintendent's
report for the school month ending
September 26, was read, discussed
and placed on file. Several bill were
allowed. Several other matters per
taining to the good of the school
were canvassed, but nothing requir
ing official action.
the scpehixtexdent's eepout.
To the Board ol Education, city of
Columbus, Nebraska.
Gentlemen: I hereby submit my
report of the schools under your
churge for the school mouth ending
September 2G, ls'JO.
The number enrolled was ZOO. The
average daily attendance was 113.
The average per cent of attendance
excluding the Beed school was 07.G.
This is a higher per cent of atten
dance than has ever before been at
tained in any school with which I
have been connected, and is also
higher than in any other school.
wnose history is known to me.
It speaks volumes for the efficient
manner in which your rules "For at
tendance of pupils," has been en
forced by the teachers in your em
ploy. The per cent of attendance in
cluding the Reed school was 9t5.3.
Number of times teachers tardy
was teu. The number of minutes lost
by tardiness of teachers was forty
seven. The number of times pupils tardy
was 172. Th number of minutes lost
bv tardiness of pupils was 1,331).
This is only about one-tenth of the
number lost by tardiness of pupils
during the corresponding month last
year.
The loss is far in excess of what it
should be, still the gain is so great
that I feel proud of the effort in this
direction made by pupils and teach
ers. I trust, that soon we will have
no loss to report.
Number of visits by superintendent
was sixty-seven. Nunrberof visits
by board was nine. The number of
visits by others was seventeen.
The number of cases corporal punish
ment was four, as follows : Miss Mc
Gath, one; Miss Pollock, one: Miss
Cushing one and Mrs. H. E. Ballou
one.
L. H. Leavy's room had the highest
per cent of attendance and the least
number of minutes lost by tardiness,
earning for it the half holiday granted
by the board. The work being done
by the teachers this year is more sat
isfactory to me than it has been in
the past. I think before the year
closes, that results will be attained,
which will be approved by the most
critical member of thjs board.
The work of the pupils examined
by me this year Is more thoroughly
done and indicates a better grade of
scholarship than has existed in the
schools at any previous period of my
superintendency in this city.
Respectfully,
J. M. Scott.
Superintendent of city schools.

Anti-Prohibition.
A good sized audience greeted Col.
Ellsworth Friday evening at the opera
house, quite a number of them being
prohibitionists. On the stage with the
speaker were Mr, Pollock and Mr. Gluck.
the latter of whom introduced the
speaker. The audience was very at
tentive and the impressions made by
what the speaker said were about as
various as the number present. Our
space is so occupied otherwise that we
can give only a L-action of what he stud,
and that in a very disjointed manner.
Vermont fell off ninety in population
in ten years, while lager beer cities gam
ed as much as the whole of the state of
Maine. Milwaukee and Omaha sell and
drink more beer than any other cities of
their size in the United States, and
there are none that have better schools,
finer churches, fewer failures in busi
ness. He gave a characterization of the
"bar" as a thing of evil, that it makes
drunkards, etc.. etc., and said it is all
trne. and I believe it- The question is
shall we have that bar helping pay our
public burdens; pnt under bonds so that
we can reach it when it violates the law;
open and above board that we may
know just what it is doing, if we choose;
selling no liquor on Sundays; none on
election days; none to minors; none to
habitual drunkards, or shtdl we have in
their stead, the irresponsible, unlicensed,
unbonded boot-legger in every alley or
by-way?
In Nebraska under high license there
are 00 permits taken out under the
government, in prohibition Iowa there
are 1,800. There are 110 saloons in
Dubuqne. He compared Nebraska to
Iowa, and defied anybody to show one
single thing in which Iowa is ahead.
At a republican convention in Des
Moines they adopted a plank declaring
that prohibition is the settled policy of
Iowa, and m the cellar of the hotel where
most of the delegates stopped there
were three barrels of empty beer bottles
as a part of the incidentals of the occa
sion. We believe the speaker is a dem
crat, but we don't doubt about the bot
tles. They claimed that the election
of Boise, a democrat, was due to railroad
induence, but he declared that from
Garfield's majority of S0.000 to 7,000 for
Boise was too big a difference to at
tribute to anything else than prohibi

prohibition, when boot-leggers and holes
in the wall would out number your sa
