A Cranky Document from Jordan.

As the valley of the old “Jordan” was rich so the valley of the new is rich and beautiful. A city gentlemen owning a farm here, lately refused a big price for it because as he-afterwards said “This is going to bo a great country.” Why is it that almost all who leave Jasper county to seek a better country come back here to live I and die V We want the cross rail- | road now being constructed from I the coal fields south to the iron j “bog ore” of the north to come j right through from Goodland to | Rensselaer, This is the nearest, [cheapest and best route. Whethe l ' our people would vote a tax we know not : but If the managers can see straight we might try. Jordan lias no church edifices; but Blathers of preaching of all kinds. ihe growing strides of common school education: We have school houses »*v ry Ainiies “world without end.” Fisty 1 years has completely regenerated the whole sellout system; then the male teach, or, the rod and 1 the ferrule were the order of the day; now the female teacher with her gentle voice and smiling face and kind ginger-cake ride, have almost driven out of history those old. master tyrants of darker days, it may be an improvement. No great hulk of a | boy or young man that .ever aims at anything good on earth, can get so low in school as to fight or insult a female. Many young men (some even green ones) think it a wpn lerful accomplishment to , marry *u “school mar hi*” bo it might ; seem on t.io face; but many of these are even defective in some of the “weigh her matters of the law.” They lnvo studied geography, history, pysiology, jchemstry, botany, «fcc., yet th’&y could not pick a mess of “greens.” They never learned how to make good ci/llee or busc lit. Tie i the real j “wife” though fully developed in some direc ions might be woefully dei.eerive in others. One of the greatest laywers of this country once said: ‘Tt takes less study to make a lawyer than a gob l cook.” A preacher even would rather have j a woman that could sit in the parlor and talk History, politics and religion and and then go out and | get up a good meal with a free will j and kind heart, than all the most delicately educated, white lingered and stmuenuieU botanists in the world.
