QUARANTINE THE OFFICERS
' Illstoriaps, who have held
post mortem inqusat over the
dead states end perished civili
sations they sustained, of Egypt,
, Greece, and Rome, ara on ani
mus in their finding that each
perished from the same cause,
moral cancer, which fastened
upon the . 'consience of their
public men and julers and eat
oat every vestige of an apprecia
tion of right, leaving them
moral idiots, oblivious of right.
j;,.;..nzi IvJouy indifferent" 16 the
ultimate consequences of wrong
to their people,' provided they,
for the time being could revel
in physical luxury. The result
of such a moral stupor was the
nations in which the cancer
fastened on the leading men and
rulers died, and the dark ages
gathered their gloom about their
ruins, and the fair dominions
; they lorded over, relapsed to
barbarism and human savages
hannted the gilded palaces -of
emperors in quest of lizards for
food. ' -
The same cancer seems to
have fastened on many , of our
public men and if not eradicated
will produce the fame results it
did ol old. All good chitons,
all lovers of their country and
the perpeturity of bur civiliza -lion
that is so beneficial to all,
should do all they can to eradi
cate this cancer, even though
drastic operations have to be
performed on men they have
long honored and helped to high
position v The only thing for
the people to do to eave their
country and civilizatiou is to
establish a rigid quarantine on
all public offices, so that it will
. be impossible for any man on
'v, whose consience this cancer has
clutched to hold oue. " The evi
- dence of this disease may be
readily known by the acta of any
man, and when a man givs evi
dence of being stricken with it,
don't vote him iuto office, or if
in office turn him out. We have
V ; laws to ..' accomplish the latter
and all should aid in their en
forcement. If the voters do not
act our government will go down
and our civilization peruh as
the older ones did. .
There arexnany k' uda of meet;
but we eellonlf ne best kind, A
trial order will convince you of
the truth of this statement We
kill only the best specimens and
"kill it correctly.
Our prices are as low as con
sistent with the best quality.
OBSERVATION
If a person were inclined to
find fault with the methods of
our schools, high and low, the
first defect to be pointed out
would be the little effort that is
made to cultivate and encourage
the habit of observing things,
The ' school life of the child ic
almost exclusively devoted to
memorizing what others have
written, and but little opportun
ity is given to! he development
of the habit of observation. The
boy or girl leaves school with a
head cramed with the observa
tions of others, for ecience is but
human observation, classified.
If science is to enlarge, it muul
grow from additional observa
tion," new finds. . Therefor if
there is to be scientific growth
there munt be activity of. obser
vation, and without this human
u
knowledge will become station
ary. Schools should look to an
expanding future, as well as, to
A fixed past. . '
