rejoicing at the success of favorite measures, intended to advance the general good, and sometimes with

regret at their defeat. On a restro-

spect of the nearly 40 vears. wedis

w I cover many instances of misplaced

confidence, it is true, but have the

joy of realizing that as compared to

the large number of true men and ineasuies, the disappointments have

been comparatively few. Ihere is

hut little in the past conduct of the

CoUBIIB that we would change if

we had the forty years to live over

again, as it was always guided by

a welMormed conviction of nffht.

It has a number of subscribers who

tinued friendships. There are many and may a Loving Father d;al mercifully with them who have been called to a better land. The Col'rikr will still continue to be the champion of the common people insisting on the Jacksoman principle of "equal rights to all ; exclusive privileges to none." It believes the restoration of the constitutional currency of the country silver, gold and treasury notes all treated alike by the Government, will tend more to bring back to the masses of the eople that much sought after "bird of beautiful plumage."

than all the tariffs, protective or free

school houses can be used exclu

sively for the first four grades, and

these two room houses have but two

grades in each room, it will make the schools vastly mote efficient , and supply a much needed want. While on this subject it might be pertinent to suggest that Jasper's

public school building should have a two room wing built on the eat side, so that a veritable graded school could be established, which would be commissioned by the State Board of Education. The Cu kikk

commends the subject to the care

ful consideration of the school trus

tees when they come to fix the amount of the siecial school levy

next week. The Jasper school does

not now furnish as i

tor education as those

towns of Ireland and Holland, and if the school trustees desire to see the town progress they must help the cause of education at home by providing better facilities for pupils than are furnished by neighboring vi liases not one sixth its si?. Bv

a special levy for next year for this

purpose of, say Üocts on each f 100, about enough wouid be collected to pay for the wing, and it could be built next year, and add largely to

the general reputation of the town.

A prominent educator of southern

Indiana, who is well acquainted with the situation educationally in

Jasper was surprised that Prof.

Sutherland had accented the posi

tion of Principal here, and remark

ed, "What does Prof. Sutherland mean by going to Jasper? There is nj chance of building up a school

there." Such slighting remarks

would not be made by Principals of other schools if our building had two more rooms, the schools wer-

properly graded, and branches taught so as to be commissioned.

and a Principal who is capable kept in position long enough to accomplish something. The town lost 40

transferred pupils ttys year, by reason of the ouarrels of trustees last

year, and it will require watchful

ness next winter to keeX s nie of

this 40 from attending the town

schools without firing anything.

Kvansville will never have a more unselfish and able advocate for her interests. The Receiver's sale of the property to the present owners, at the remarkably low price of lt,400j00 which was confirmed by the court, is a rich streak of luck for them.
