License Revoked.
V|/EDNESDAY was the day set by the county Superintendent to hear the charges against Thomas Simpson, the Scott township teacher who had been writing improper letters to his young girl pupils. Simpson made default and the official revoked his license. Simpson is 28 years of age and has been a teacher in Scott township for seven years. The girl to whom he wrote the letters is fourteen. Revoking his license is but slight punishment for the offense, if it is bad as alleged. The father of the girl would have raised himself much higher in the public estimatiou had he worn out a blacksnake whip on the fellow.

PUBLIC:
It is desired that our citizens will promptly report to the police any tramps or vagrants who may apply to them for assistance. Smallpox is now prevailing in many of the states, and in some localities in this state. Tramps and vagrants are particularly liable to spread this disorder. It is therefore necessary to arrest all such and procure their vaccination in order that the public may be protected from this danger.

God deals with men on a cash basis. If you sin you suffer. Punishment to have restraining power must instautly follow sin."
