The new High school paper, the Se
lector, came oat with the first issue last
week. The paper throughout is a credit
to Peter Daffy, the editor, aad William
manager. Both young man are practical

the usual amateurish style of a high
school or college paper. On the cover
page is printed a half-tone picture of
the new high school building, photo
graphed by John Early, and published
in the Illustrated Omaha Bee a few
weeks ago.
Saturday last, while a prominent
populist was, with others, looking at the
young chickens whieh were being hatch
ed out in Jno. Schaioekern incubator, he
remarked to George Barnum that the
populists should have some such ma
chine to hatch pops. Before George
could retort (and he is usually pretty
quick at it) a Polk county German farm
er remarked that it would be a very poor
business to go into better a good deal,
to feed cattle and hogs than to raise
pops. The p. p. seemed, like Dewey
in his interview about the presidency,
conscious of having said more then he
ought.
A man eynic asks wbwis it that the
pretty girl is almost always the selfish
girLtoo? and after giving numerous nias
trations, answers that -the poor things
are so spoiled that they think about no
one but themselves, and so they become
unbearably egotlsticaL" The cynical
man is evidently not a good judge of
beauty, which, like all qualities, is a
matter of degree. There is beauty of
face, of form, of language, of manners,of
character. Indeed, if a young lady have
only a pretty face, or a young man, a
handsome make-up to commend them
along life's rugged way, they will sorely
need help.
The receipts of the Columbus post
office for the fiscal year ended March 31,
1900, were SSL198. The last year previous
to Mr. Kramer taking charge, the re
ceipts were $525. When the receipts
of an office exceed $8,000, the law pro
vides that it shall be a second-class
office, and after July 1st, Mr. Kramer
informs us, this will be the case. The
increased receipts, of course denote in
creased business, naturally requiring
increased facilities, pay, etx, and in
many ways, the change will be benefi
cial. Columbus can reasonably look
forward to a good government building
here, in which to transact government
business.
Doubtless we shall have hot weather
after this wet spell, and it will be found
necessary for comfort to clean up,
streets, alleys, yards and cellars of every
thing which would by decay pollute the
air. One of the modem theories is that
all human ailments are due to microbes,
and the bad microbes seem to nourish
in filth of various kinds. The new ad
ministration, it is understood, are
pldged to some lines of reform, such as
the opening of closed streets, and the
improvement of streets generally, by
gracing, and occasionally, at least,
timely sprinkling when dusty, etc, and
we suppose that effort will be put forth

politics of North
Carolina and
southern states.
A grevious wrong is now being fos
tered and furthered in some, if not all,
of the southern states.
In 1996 we had a fair election is North
Carolina. The republicans polled a ma
jority of the votes by several hundred
and elected a United States senator. In
the election following, owing to ballot
box stuffing and unadulterated stealing
of votes, democrats carried the state.
In 1998, democrats asd populists tried
to stick themselves in the corner of every
bouse top in the state, and declared that

holders, and the republicans, recogsiz
Leg the meanness of the charge, can-

and further that the majoriry of colored j
people holding oSces were democrats, j
So as they could cot fairly get a ma-1
jority of votes, they stole them. Is sev- J
eral townships of the state where the f
democrats held swav thev eves drew I
ipons and threw stones to force the j
republicans from the polk, and cot allow j
uxo to vote.
Sach is the record of the pepoeratic
party in that state, and is some other
states it is 16 to 1 worse than is North
Carolina. Who is it that would have
the conscience to support such a party
as this, after knowing these facts?
Iiademoerator populism should cast
his eyes on this statement, I win ask
him a few questions:
Have we good times?
If so, why do you want a change in
political matters?
Hew do the markets of 1900 compare
with those of 1904-o?
Doat you really believe that your
party has not shown nrst-dsss ability
in the management of public affairs?
Conviaeed of wrong, why continue in
the wrong?
