GRAY. § For Next Gov. of Indiana, Wm. K. NIBLACK. Criticism. m Criticism is a medicine that somef timoft kills, but often cures. It cured * L.rdjlyron of some of his early foibles and lordly conceit, and it is said ,^o liave killed John Keats, an overfvipire vonnf poet. But taken as a criticism is a good tiling if r Wisely directed and properly admin--i-'erod. It corrects errors, cultivates "taste, and conducts the world in the light path* to the attainment of the most substanciai good to the greatest number. . It cannot be successfully launched | from the platform, pulpit or"stump,” unless it is caught up and repeated . by the. press, like a far resounding echo, which is multiplied until it reaches all ears, and quickens the . general perception. Judgement is

IMaillOlC, aim cnucisiu um.y ■ometimes err, but its effects are at-' ways beneficial, and the result is genklly good. It stimulates investigai and discussion, and induces peoRo think and decide for themselves. Vs the good of.it. Criticism of

alio wock may be rigm or mblic attention, and cooler benefits Tail around. Criticism of books exorcise a similar healthful influence, Whether they are favorable or unfavorable to the work. Authors would generally rather be noticed and“cutI up,” than ignored and left alone. The l spirit.of criticism is always captious; f still it is a goon spirit, and performs [ a mission like that of an“angel una- | wares.” It may mean to pull down r and destroy, but the result of its work L is to build and create. The intended I I jury is its own unconscious reparaI t on. The general spirit of criticism I is aptly illustrated by the remark of ■a celebrated English wit, critic and ■ensor, who is credited with having Raid he never read a book before critf ieising it, as reading always predjw* irtWIrs one so'imich. The reittark has become the rule of nearly all the book reviewers of the present time, who, as newspaper writers, despatch huge piles of new books that come under tbeir notice in a few hours. This feriMateis one-of the imperious nccessi

naleTT by steam. 1 hus, even the greatest improvements in speed have their stumbling-blocks, drawback^ and disadvantages. Concerning Taste. There is no universal standard of taste, and such a regulation would be as impossible to establish as a universal language. Tastes, in all matters and things, ar6^ formed, and trained, and educated/ by circumst slices aud surroundings. They are almost as various in color and shade ins the human countenance and complexion. In nothing do tastes differ more widely than in literature, and the choice of books as the result. ^As a Kencraf rule, children do not like books when first introduced to ihem, and never take kindly to those they are forced to read. Tho good little boy who is reported to have said lie would rather stay in the bouse and read a chapter in the “good hook,” than eat a sweet cake and go out in the sunshine and play/told a ' Awhite.lie,”and his mother knew it, too; y.et she praised him for his goodness, gave him the cake and told him k I0“get out.” ] • 'Paste for reading may lie traiued i bv a judicious selection of reading matter for childrcu, hut it cannot he t»reed, except at the risk of creating itlslike and repulsion: and this is a tact that parcuts and teachers should remember and regard,. The road to fading ought to be made as smoothmid pleasint, and easy as possible, and not beset, Ss it often is, With flinty atones and thorny brambles. The child should be allowed to ramble and lomp iii open sunshine and flowery paths, until a glim so is caught ot the Wide landscape, deep woods, and the mysterious mountains be> ond. Then tho desire to explore becomes a passion, and all reading, romance. Correct tastes are formed, and a practical education is the unerring result.— Ex.

The “Girl er “Bey-Which? One of the Democrat's corresponI ilents has written a letter in editorial follows: * ‘TlmpTobtfble that the ‘Girl About Town’has grown sick and faint of |#er trying to get people to do belter, • hud Intends to take a vacation fora week or so; or she may have moved j to some distant land to grow up in a (teller clime, and live away from the many vices of a town like ours, for She hae tried for many a weary day fo better her neighbors, but it seem* no one la ready to help in this matter. Everyone seems to think, “I will have nothing to do with these things ; they Lira too low for me to take part in;

lidna, 1 have plenty to do to ic want# of my family, and ! something for a rainy day. will not do wrong, or go to Ti« town afford#, nor go in company with those places. But, mv ! «o yon know who visits rnearest friend, wav bo l

f . your children. How can you tell where they are at all times ? Put all vices from your midst, and then you may expect the blessing that is prom* hed to the good. “Or it may be the ‘Girl Abont Town’ has married broad shouldered, black* haired, brown-eyed, hatchet-faced ‘Boy About Town,’ wltose age is ‘live and thirty years,’ and intends to stir him up to a redoubling of his diligence, and retniud him that the old adage, “A rolling stone gatherers no moss,” should read: ‘Nothing attempted, nothing done’, and intends that he sltall, by her kindness and many good deeds, be constrained, to the correction of this adage, to urge upon all people that, if they wish to be good and do good, they must stand up like men and put- all the vices from the communty.” Enumeration of Children. Lacking the space, we are compelled to omit the paragraphs that are merely intended tor giving emphasis to the facts stated, as well as a few interrogatories, and print the important points only, of a letter on the proposed change in the enumdration which the School Supt. insists on having published, as follows: “If I understand the object ojf -the change, it is not to exclude any otic from school but rather to encourage a larger attendance. “The catholics will be permitted to go to school just the same as they always have. The reason that the name catholic enters into the discussion of the question, is that In the cities all the catholic children are enumerated by the city trustees ffnd at the same time they attend their own Private schools. “The cities draw money on thcii children that are not benefitted by the monev hence it is not just to the conutry schools. It is also claimed amVproven to that the cities swell their enumeration-list to about double what it actually is. Statistics prove that the average daily attendance in the schools of pupils, in tlie leading cities of Indiana runs from 30 to 40% of the enumeration or an average of 35% while that of the country schools runs from 60 to 70% or an average of 65% of the enumeration. “Here is another point to consider, the teachers in the city of Indianapolis get on an average of $4.37 per day, in F». Wayne $3 97,* in Evansville 3.89 and other cities similarly^ and another alarming fact is that these cities have a ten months school. . “While the above is proven by statistics, this is also true that the country schools average, taking the entu:a«-aiatf^ 4% monlbs and the teachers arc paid on an average of the pitiful sum of $.1.87 per day. “Jl Animated, and I think correctly to, that if the change on the basis of Apportionment is made from that of Enumeration to that of the Average Daily Attendance that it will give the country on an average

of a six months school and pay the teachers on an average of at least $2.27 per day, and will at the same time do away with the Local Tuition levy made by the Trustee each June “And here is another great save to the people also, instead of the Trustees making from $10 to $30 taking the Enumeration each year; this responsibility will he taken from the trustee and made a duty of the teacher as he will keep the record. ' “It cannot possibly effect, any one but the cities and they only where fraud has been practiced in taking the enumeration, and as we have suffered a considerable by their frauds and they have prospered at our-ex-pense, let us milk the cow awhile and let them do the feeding. “I made it a point this year in my visits to the different schools to get accurate report^ from the teachers as to the enrollment in each school and the number present on the day I visited each school, and I have made a calculation taking the enumeration and the enrollment as the-bases. “In this county the enrollment is B7% of the enumeration, and the attendance is 83% of the enrollment and the attendance is 79% of the enumeration. “It seems to me thilt this is most an extraordinary showing for the schools of IMke county. It shows that the people are interested in the education of their children and the prosperity of the county, it also speaks well for the teachers of our county; and another thing that gives us better attendance is the cheapness at which school books can be had, it enables almost any parent who desires to school Ills children to get books for tnem. Another great advantagdlhat will be gained by a change in the basis of apportionment, in this. It will encourage teachers to work harder to get a good attendance at school aiid it will encourage parents to send their children more regularly, for the belter the attendance the more money we get, the more money we get the more school we will have, and the more school we have and the better is attendance the better the interest and the better the school. “The more I think of the change Ihe'inore l’m in favor of it. Hoping that I have said nothing but what will be in harmony with the feelings of the people in general and that I am advocating nothing but what is for the most good for the moat people* 1 remain respectfully M. B. Thomas.”

BILDERBACK, Auditor in and for said County and State aforesaid, do hereby certify that the foregoing list contains a loll and correct statement of the lifiids and town lots which were by the Treasurer of said County returned for the non-pay-mentof taxes chaiged thereon and which still remain unpaid for theyear lift® with interest and penalty thereon, together with the taxes for the currrent rear 1890. Witness my hand and Seal of the. Board of Commissioners of said County, this 31st dav of December 1890. [seaII FRANK E. BILDERBACK, Auditor of Pike County, Indiana. "N otice ot'Sale. r tice to axpayers. BOTICE is hereby given .to all wham it may concern, that the several tracts of land and town lots in the foregoing list, or so much thereof as will lie necessary to pay the taxes and charges thereon will be sold at public auction at the dooi of the court house in Petersburg. Pike County, Indiana, by, the Treasurer of said county, on the Second Monday in-February,, A. 1).. 1891, the same being the 9th day of said month, commencing at 10 o’clock, A. M-, of said day, and continuing from day to day thereafter until all are offered, unless sUcli taxes, interest,‘penalty and charges are paid before that time. Witness my hand and seal of the Board of Commissioners of l’ike County, Indiana. at Petersburg, this 31st day of December, 1890. FR ANK U. BILDERBACK, [Seal.j__ Auditor of Pike County. Indiana. TAXES FDR 1B9D. Notice is hereby given, that the Tai Duplicate (or State ahd Const; Taxes tor 1890 is now in m; hands, and that I am now read; to receive the taies thereon charged The following Table shows the Rate of Taxation on each One Hundred Dollars worth of Property, and also on each Poll in the several Townships in Pike County, Indiana, for the Year 189a; __

An additional tax of $1 tor one Uog, ana tor eacn aaamonui Dog, and $2 for each Female Dog, Persons owing-Delinquent Taxes should pay them at once. The law is of suqlv character that there is no option left the Treasurer but to enforce the collection of delinquent taxes, however much he "may regret to collect the same, by the sale of property. By an act of the General Assembly the Tax Duplicate is divided into two installments. The first, including Road 1 ax, must be paid by the third Monday in April, 1891, or the whole will be delinquent and subject to penaltieg^ The second installment on or before the first Monday of November following. All delinquent taxes due from the payee of any County Order must be paid before any County Order will be redeemed.

Bring your Road Receipts with you when you -pay your nrsi nistan* ment, as I cannot take receipts after my annual settlement in Jtme» •- No Road Receipts'will be received or credited unless presented by person owning the land for which the receipt was given.
