summer last year, till I left a week ago,
and when I left there were three or four
feet."of snow, on the ground.' Mr.

Women Teachers.
. Of the teaching body in the United
States at the last census 65 per cent.
were women. The total number is 238,'
833. Women are sometimes employed
as teachers exclusively for boys, but
more frequently for boys and girls to
gether. - In Chicago there are no separate
schools for boys the sexes are taught
together. Women in. Boston. teach all
the branches in all the .public school
course to children of all ages and all
classes in life. In reply to the compara
tive success of male and female teachers
the commissioner of education reports
"Women, I think,- as a rule succeed bet
ter than. men in getting work out of
pupils of all kinds. - The intellectual
training which they give is therefore
better up to a certain point than that
given by men, ' They also maintain bet
ter discipline than men and with less

. , , - "The Good Old Times-"
John Monroe, an old and respected.
farmer of , the Hood Kiver valley paid
his respects to the Chronicle today in
the form of a pleasant visit. Mr: Mon
roe was born nearly 77 years ago in Lo
gan county, Ohio. ' He remembers well
the stirring .times connected with the
presidential campaigns of '30 and '40, in '
both of which he voted for Harrison,
-casting his first ballot for that gentle- :
-man in 1836. The dominent issue in
both campaigns was . the tariff. - Mr.
Monroe' took his stand for protection
and has never wavered in 'his fealty to
that doctrine during the long years that
have transpired since. Though by no
means deficient in theoretical- knowl
edge of tarff questions he . has a double
advantage over men who were born at a
later period, as he himself was a part of
the actual history of three quarters4 of a
century during which tariff laws have
veered from almost absolute free trade
to high protection. He remembers the
condition that followed the nearest ap
proach to free trade the country has
ever known, which occurred after the
election of Van Buren in 1836 and was
so disastrous to the nation that almost
every factory and foundry and work
shop that was Obliged to compete with
English manufacturers, had to ' shut
down. The poverty of the agricultural
classes exceeded that of any former per
iod in the nation's history. Money was
derained out of the country' to pay for
foreign imports and the producer found
next to no market for his products.
Wages, for all classes of labor, were low
and everything the farmer was compelled
to buy was high. To illustrate these
good old free trade times, for -whose re
turn so many moderns are earnestly
yearning, we cannot do better 'than re
late a little incident that happened not
long since in the district school house,
not far from Mr. Monroe's home. An
earnest advocate of "tariff reform" had
just whooped it up in favor of the good
old times away back in the early forties,
when Mr. Monroe asked permission to
tell something that he knew, hot like
the lecturer from a book, if indeed the
said lecturer bad not drawn largely on
his imagination for his facts. Permis
sion having been granted the old gentle
man in substance said: . "I remember
well the' days the speaker has told us of,
but I remember' tbem as the worst times
for a poor man I have ever known dur
ing my long life.' I remember well the
first jack-knife I ever owned. I had ar
rived at manhood before " I was Tich
enougn to possess it. it was a poor
make-shift of a knife, imported all the
way from England, for we had no pro
tection for our factories in those days
and consequently no factories. The
knife cost me a dollar and a half and the
money that purchased it was earned by
three days hard work, under a broiling
sun, in tne Harvest neia. i noia in my
hand a knife vastly better in every way
that cost me exactly 48 cents, and any
harvest hand, in' any corner of the Amer
ican continent, during any harvest sea
son, for the past 25 years of -high pro
tective tariff, could earn in one day suffi
cient money to uuy irom tnree to naif a
dozen of them."-
. A Plain Man's Idea.
A farmer in Mississippi writes the fol
lowing letter on silver to the New York
Evening Jfost. It presents an argument
in a style as plain and clear as it is
homely and forcible, viz: "I am
farmer and do not know much about
politics, but I do see some serious flaws
in the Bland bill. The aim of the friends
of silver is to raise the price of that
metal by putting government credit be
hind it. Now, my county does not pro-
duce an ounce of silver, nor an ounce of
anything valuable in the mineral -line,
If the price of silver is advanced artifi
cially, will it not take more of our timber,
more pigs, more corn, more calves to
get it? Are dollars to be made more
plentiful 7 How? I know of just one
way to get dollars, and that is to find
some man who has dollars and who
wants something he does not have more
than he wants his dollars, and who will
give me his dollars for something" which
I prize less than I do his dollars. In
Other words, I trade my labor, my pigs
my cotton, my cows for the dollars of
some man who needs labor, pigs, cotton
or cows more than he needs dollar
XT I M. ' t
employers are alter one
laborer, as in Montana, wages are high :
if two laborers are after one 'boss, as in
some large cities of the East, Wages "are
low. If two pigs are after $1, pigs are
1 . 5 0 . .
" 'c Biter, one pig, pigs are
high. If dollars, of whatever , kind, get
so abundant that three or four ef them
get after one pig, pigs will go very high :
and if dollars reach the point where they
are maae oy tne millions out of silver
and copper, and tin, and represent noth
ing but themselves, pigs may be ex
pected to hesitate before they will trade
themselves off for something- as common
as leaves in October, and it will take"
great many more 'dollars' to get one pig
uau it. nuuiu uute it a pig paa no ques-
x! . . . T .
tion oi weir vaine.uut these extra
'dollars' Will do the man .who sells the
pig no good, because the man who sella
the spools of thread and calico will want
more of them for his goods. ' This hap
pens, not because the pig and calico are
worth more, but because the 'dollars' are
worthless. 'I respectfully urge that a far
more popular measure will be ' the pas
sage of a law making nine eggs a dozen."
