good scheme for school directors to

such as is Mrs. Warren, to teach the
school children to read at least the notes
of tke ordinary hymn tunes, which can
readily be done, and will be found a
desirable acquisition in every respect.
Many a person grows old in some sort of

fasafoaed weekly singing school, gener

of the rudiments of musical notation,

A Dastardly Seed
Last Wednesday night some man or
company of men committed at Monroe
one of the most cowardly deeds ever,
perpetrated in thi3 region. Before this i
happening, we would not have supposed
that Platte county contained within its
borders creatures of this kind. It goes
with the saying that all who have known I
Allen Gerrard for years can readily be-
! lieve that if he had ben present with
good weapons, somebody would have
been hurt, and farther, that this species
of opposition but operates as as in
centive to such men as Allen.
The deed must receive the denuncia
tion of all right-minded citizens, be
cause if the expression cf opinion on
public matters is to be met by a club
instead of by argument, the sooner the
new basis is authoritatively proclaimed,
the better it will be all around. We
pity the men who were so mean, and
cowardly as to do this thisc, and we are
sorry that Monroe has this blot on her
history. The editor of the Looking
Glass has this to say is the issue of

We will be unable to get out our paper

We are of the opinion that the act was
stirred up by the opposition we have
awakened is denouncing lawlessness, as
we have known of much effort to do us
f harm, and have suffered from a regular
i boycott. Possibly it may come out who
are the guilty parties. C. W. Hollinas-

S. Hyatt have offered to help hunt them
