We want to call the attention of our educator, but more especially tbe attention ofparentf to the fact, that a at present organized, there I a very' poor prospect of ever secur ing our cbildreu an education In tbe pub lic school. The graded system, or at least the graded system of Kama, is simply a system of growing your children up In Ig norance. In order to secure uniformity of grades and a minimum of labor, or for some other reason, the school hare been graded and graded so that from the time a child enters the primary department until grad uated from the highest grade cover nearly a decade of year, or tbe third of a life-time. HI simply ridiculous. Sofarai advance ment I concerned; so fir a acquiring a common-school education, or even receiv ing the necemrry preparation for entering a uivcrslty or college I concerned, It would be better to tend your child ilx month each year to a country school. We asked a lit tle boy, the other day, how long It would be before be could graduate from tbe Wichita high school. He answered: "Six year will be the shortest time possible in which I can graduate, because tbey only promote once a year, and there are six grades, course, or clastes above me now." A fourteen-year-old boy, going steadily tq the Wichita schools, would be a rum grown before passing tbe highest or lart grade, and then nine time out of ten be could not pas eucb an exam ination a would admit blm to the Ireihman class of any lirst-clas college or university. It is not to tbe policy of affording teach ers a steady job that we urge objection, so much as the scheme of practicing the same teacher so long on the same set of scholar. They hold our children so many years In their grade and Intermediate grade, that another set arc boru and reared and crying for places in our already over-crowded schools licloic the first set gets half way through. And It Is not against our teach er or superintendent at Individual that we complain, for they, no doubt, average well with the teacher throughout tbe State, but it is against a machine system which makes no distinction, butgrindstbe bright and dull alike, along through the same un ending course, a system which discourages the capable scholar but fails to encourage or prompt the dullard; a system which drags and drills a whole generation for sev en or ten years on a course of studies that any average scholar should master in two years; holding them back till such a late hour in life that there IsnotimeUfliu which to seek a liberal education. Aud we defy all the teachers In tbe State to either suc cessfully or feebly contradict the truth of these averment. Wc haven't time this week to go further Into this matter, and only offer these sugges tions with tbe hope that parent may ques tion their otvu children. We arc erecting great substantial brick buildings, employ ing twenty odd teacher and going dowu Into our pockets for thousand of dollars every year, and we ask you for what! The teachers for the present term hare been assigned as follows: First Wajd Fifth and Sixth grades, Mrs. Alice Stites. Fourth grade, Mrs. A. 11. Craven. Third grade, Mrs. Carrie Stites. Second grade, Miss Eatella Woolard. First grade, Mrs AdaEmbrec. Second Wrrd Fifth and Sixth gradcs,Mis Sallle llldwell. Fourth grade, Miss May Guthrie. Third grade, Mis Ollle Ilotts. Sccood grade.

A FINE HERD OF SHORT-HORNS. Hon. Wm. Ross, the owner of Riverside Farm, as our reader know, sold out all hi cattle a short lime since. His reason for so doing wa4 that bo might give hi atten tion exclusively to thoroughbred. He says that where a stockgrower 1 prepared to care for tine stock tbe profits are much greater than from common or graded stock. As to the breeds, although a native of the land Irom whence the Polled Angus cattle came, and knowing all their best points, he still prefers tbe short-horns. Ho say that taking tho list of awards made in England at the fairs It will be found that foruniform excellent points the lists of short-horns are always two or three times a long as Polled Angus and Hereford lists put together. Mr. Ross purchased and brought to thisounty lat week sixtecu cows; four ttvo-ycar-old seven yearling heifers, five bull calves and two heifer calves. He bought these from D. M. Ilrowcr, In Woodson county, In thl State. Tbey were brought from Iowa last spring and represent some of the best beef and milk-producing families of thorough bred sbort-borna. He had them on the west side fair ground on Saturday and several experienced cattle men, wbo went over to see them, pronounced the lot to be very su perior and a valuable acquisition to tbe county. That this new Riverside herd will be heard from In the future we have not the least doubt. THE OLD FAIR ASSOCIATION. The officers of the old fair association In form us that the receipt of the last fair ex ceeded the expenditure by a handsome sum, and that much of the floating Indebt edness ol the society 1 being paid off. We have no doubt ol It, for tbe crowd in at tendance for three days were unexpectedly large. As the new fair association, no doubt, were equally tuccestful, the old ques tion of "Why two flrr" Inevitably cornea up. It I simply ridiculous to attempt to keep up two fair?. IftheefTortsaiid money expended on the two fairs thl fall had been combined on one exhibition it would hare been such a show as would bare satisfied every one. Wichita is tnc central city anu metropolis of tho Lower Arkansas Va'ley and her annual (air ought to rival tbe State lair in maguitudc and tbe number In at tendance, lint a divided effort will never reach such n result. THAT BANQUET. The board ol trade tendered Judge Fos ter and tbe officer of tbe United State court. Including the grand and petit juries some forty persons in all a supper last Monday ulght. Fifty or sixty plate were laid at the Occidental. But fourteen or sixteen citizen were present including the mayor and city council. It was not intend ed at a blow-out or pretentious banquet, but only a an earnest of tbe city's good will and esteem for Judge Foster and his court, After partaking of oysters aud In dulging In a general smoke the party broke at an early hour. Judge Foster as well a Attorney Hallowcll and all the other offi cer?, seemed to appreciate tbe spirit of the unpretentious affair, and tbe social feature proved an entire success. ETERNAL FMCETFUtNESS. Tbe Spirit ol the waning year it spread ing hi antumnal wings o'er our green val ley, and all that was born of the spring's warmth or the summer glow must now be touched with death by tbe chill or bis with ering breath. Soon, upon .everything, will he Isy bla blighting spell ot change and transformation, and walling winds, ladrned with great drop of grief, will drlre the pale grass and faded leaf Into tbe fathomless ocean of winter insensibility If anybody tblnkhe can more handsome ly get around quoting "The melancholy ilay bare come' let him try nil Band.

Hen Aldrich with bis wife bad a narrow escape Monday evening. Tbey bad started out in their buggy for a ride when one or the wheels or the buggy came off which frightened the horse into a run.

Tbi is Mr. M.'s first visit to this valley, although an old resident or the State. He say our town carries more of a city or metropolitan air than any town in the State, in which observation he is eminently correct, His wife will remain some time visiting at Eagle Roost. Mr. C.

Merkle left u a half bushel of Concord, which, being devoured by the family at one sitting, caused their eyes to "stick out in fatness." They were very large, very ripe, and very luscious, for which he will accept thanks. Mr. John A. Wallace of the Eagle force present us with tbe finest dish of peaches we have seen or tasted this season. Tbey were very large and juicy and of such a redness as to rival carmine in brilliancy, lie don't know any thing about the name or variety, growing, a he says, on a scrag gy, good-for-nothing looking tree in bis yard. If it is a seedling It should be prop agated. There was a large gathering, and a happy gathering, of friend aud relations at the home of Horace Carpenter last week to eel brate bis thirty-fifth wedding anniversary. Tbe presents were many, but they counted a little compared to the good will and hap piness or all the participants. Uncle Hor ace, wbo is past sixty-two, has renewed bis youth aud no one can tell what may hap pen. Dan Jonca went out a few day ago into hi corn field to look up some premium ear of corn. He found them all so uniformly mammoth and so bard to determine which were really tbe largest that be filled bis wagon-bed heaping full and drove down to tbe fair. We never taw such aload of corn. Illinois, Indiana and Ohio farmers all took an ear or two apiece and the Stale fair's agent gobbled a bushel or two, declaring that be bad never seen such corn in his life. Mr. J. G. McCoy, or this city, exhibited at the fair last week a cost cut and made for Abraham Lincoln in 1800. It was during tbe campaign and McCoy's wedding bad been fixed. lie went to bis tailor in a hur ry forhl wedding garments. McCoy being tbe same size or Lincoln and bis counter part in make-up, especially hi shoulder, and tbe tailor having Lincoln' coat about finlbed, and plenty of time to make anoth er before it would be called lor, let McCoy have the coat, He was married in it and now preserve It as an heirloom. Since tbe prevalence of the cyclonic storms, more properly tornadoes, It has been ascertained, or at least asserted, that no site of former Indian village have been truck. We don't bank much on the as sertion, but a Wichita occupies such a site we are ready to accept all tbe advantage and Immunities promised. Our red brother Is nature's child, and understands it mood II not it laws. No Indian wa erer known to camp under anything but a syca more tree in a storm, which tree tbey claim I such a non-conductor a never to be truck by lightning. Ex-Mayor George E. Harri will please accept our thanks for a basket or grapes which included nine distinct varieties, and all grown by himself, viz : "Lady," a large white; "Martha," awhile; "Elvira," a white; '-Diana," an amber; "Catawba' a black amber; "Isabella," a black; "Hart ford Prollfle," ablack; "Concord," a black, and tbe "Roger No. 10." Of course, thl number of varieties piled up In glass fruit dishes on our home sideboard made a tempt ing display, and If thl wasn't a prohibi tion State we would wish the captain's cel lar might ever be full of "corn and wind." That Mr. A. J. Cook I an Inventive gen ius there is no question. Ills last model, and for which he ha applied for a patent, Is a railway car telegraph, or a device for carry lag an operator and instruments oo a moving train from which dispatches can be sent to any other train or any station on tbe road, or received. The electric current is transmitted to and through the instrument on the moving train by a very simple device, direct from a wire strung over tbe track. Tbe model Is all right, but an actual test can only determine its eScIency, In our judgment, although Mr. Cook saya tbe ap paratus cannot help working. Percy Alexander Kirkpatriek, the bright little five-year-old boy of George E. Kirk patriek, died at his home last Thursday.

She stands pre-eminent among tho agricultural States of the West the acknowledged queen..- And what Kansas is to the other Western States the region comprising the lower Arkansas and Ninnescah Valleys is to Kansas the garden spot of the State. The last ten years have demonstrated beyond question that Southern Kansas is more genial in climate, more bouutiful and certain in productions, ' i f ' i ' than any other portion of tho West. Nowhere eke in all our broad land do these conditions unite in such harmony to make possible, the establishment of the ideal farmer's home. Many such arc springing up into living pictures, and adorn the landscape on every hand. The projection of two lines of railroad from Wichita west and south wpst through the county and beyond opens up a hitherto practically undevel oped country, where lands are still cheap, and than which there is nothing better ia tbe State. The ricks of wheat and dark' green fields of corn over laden with heavy ears seen on every hand tell the story of the value of these lands. f v We hare some special bargains on our books, in the range of irasaedi ate railroad developments, which we regard as the best ia the market aad which we will take pleasure in showing to onr customers in quality of soil not to be excelled, aad ia price far below their real valuer The prices range froataOO to $1,600 per quarter for! lands that in oar judgment will double ia value wlttun the next six months.
