A little of Prince Bismarck’s brutal
frankness and truthfulness may work
a change In the methods of handllug
school affairs in general; for the naked
truth deals with bare fecta. And, the
goose (dunderpate, dunce) la not silly,
Mnor la the sage (pretender) wise.
If1 Those to whose efforts the public
school* owe their origin, development
aud success have been human beings
and have, therefore, been subject to
the errors of humanity. Hence It has
not been so very difficult to find fault,
especially when, out of pure cussed-
ness, malice and spite, no regard was
paid to the reasonableness of the fault-
finding, when it was not done with a
▼lew to better-mont.
The (true) friends of the cause of
education made answer rather in the
spirit of partisans than in that of one
who exposes the unfairness of the
charges or the unreasonableness of the
standard. The public school has, anil
had
ITB ORIGIN
in an attempt to provide the means of
an education for all, nnd not in an ef-
fort to provide for the poor or tp pro-
tect the rich by doling out tho least
amount of instruction, that would en-
able the well-to-do to foci that their
duty had been discharged.
Practically, those wn*. have worked
in the interests of pultlie education
have in all places claimed Hint this ed-
ucation was both a necessity and a
boon to the community, and not a con-
cession to the wants of any particular
individual.
Faithful, good, and live teachers try
and seek to ploase nobody, except sat-
isfying their oum official conscience I
They will nttend to their business, to
suit themselves only, because they know
and understand their professional call-
ing folly and thoroughly, and this tho
dear public in general, do not. They
must, therefore, employ teachers who
do.
Teaching is a professional calling
not a mere common business, and re-
quired experts. The wisest aud staun-
chest friends of nubile education, both
in the past aud In the present, would
reject the theory that exceptional
young men and women were to bo
transplanted, and in virtue of their
ability and success, be admitted to the
nobler stock.
Such au idea and such a policy has
as writer recollects, prevailed iu Eng-
land, and by robbing tho lower aud
middle classes ef their only intelligent
supporters, has prolonged. The pow-
er of au artificial uobilitv pronounce it

Editor Joubhal:
In yoor paper of Oct. 1st appeared
an article signed by C. Lack andjohn
Sohudemagen. On the end of the same
it reads, “In to* proa* we will cfcrteiu-
' Ive a plain atete-
_ , _ wewre perfectly
willing to leave the troth of It to those
who know os.”
Now. we, whoae names are hereun-
der written, know Messrs. G. Luck aud
Sohudemagen - we know the real Hurts
of th* whole affklr; and we testify that
their statement it not the truth.
Mr. Q, Luck ha* not only tried—for
many years—to be the “Boss” of this
country, but, with hit friend Sehude-
magen, he is going to boss or govern
our Trinity church, too. This last fact
they prove with their letter.
In this letter they have unanswera-
bly Insulted and taken away the rights
of the real prate* aud trimtc* (II.
1’iiilippce ana F. Buehrlng) of the
church, and the members, os well as of
our worthy, pious, sober and honest
minister, the Rev. Dr. Treptow, whom
they themselves have praised every-
where, until he objected to their act*
snd demanded his rights and those of
the church.
For, In the record of our minute
book, we find the following: April 26
1886. The 89th church meeting was
held. The pastor opened the mooting
by roading the 67th psalm aud prayer.
The last minutes were read aud adopt-
ed.
Messrs. Julius Otell, Trangott Ru-
dolph nnd John Emler were nominated
os applicants of the church, aud by res-
olution were received as inemlters on
the same condition as the other (for-
mer) members hod been received, viz:
That each ono has to give au entrance
fee to the church according to his abil-
ity. (
Now the pastor was asked if he
wished to stay next year. Answer.
Just as last year page 53. Yes, I will
stay.
(hiring the absence of tho pastor, the
members of the church, resolved to
keen their pastor os they hod done,
with the exception of his salary, which
was to be *60 less—than the previous
year.
The pastor was called lu; he declar-
ed that he did uot agree with this. He
then received about three weeks to
give a definite answer. The pastor
appointed Messrs. J. Sohudemagen,
Adolph liogeus and Rudolph I’hilHp-
pus to examine the church treasury and
make a report of tho same. Adjourn-
ed, prayer. Rev. Dr. Treptow.
May 17th 1886, tho 40lh meeting was
held. The pastor had given notice of
this extra meeting, aud opened it th-
reading tho 76th psalm and prayer.
The salary question was now discuss-
ed—(this dash means that tho salary of
Pastor Treptow for the year 1886 till
1886 shall be *600,00 etc.) Finally Mr.
F. Buehring offered to get up the lack-
ing *60 of the salary. After a debate
It was resolved, that the pastor be
given eight days time from to-morrow
to notify Mr. Luck, iu whethor he
wished to say or not, and during the
same time, talk the matter over witli
Mr. Buehring. Adjourned, prayer,
Pastor Treptow.

mild type.

to social distinctions, to give all the ele-
ments of the community acquaintan-
ces with each other and thug to limit
conventional distinctions to their pro-
per office, while the education o
children is conducted under conditions
which insure to tho community the
most valuable results
The children who belong to the nforo
prosperous classes learn the limits of
class distinctions and form a real ac-
quaintance with classes of people with
whoso interests their own are insep-
rably blended.
If they are to remain members of
the more prosperous, intelligent and
influential classes they will learn the
ways of thought and modes of reason-
ing' prevalent among tho less prosper-
ous classes they will find their best op-
portunity lor modifying their views
and correcting prejudices of the pros-
perous classes, and hyfrdissetninating
the culture derived from their better
surroundings, will do much towards
removing tne objectionable features
between the rich and poor.
Public education in America, my
friends, is therefore expected to bene-
fit the community by realizing the doc-
trine of the brotherhood of man as man,
and by most speedily diminishing ig-
norance by bringing it into contact
with greatest possible intelligence that
the community affords.
The most practical education for
workingmen Is that which, during the
years or childhood, communicates the
elements of general knowledge, and
trains the child in the use of his facul-
ties, deferring until later the particular
lessons of special callings. W hile one’s
energies should be so developed and
trained as to fit him to deal with the
material problems of every-day life,
this by ilsolf is insufficient, and it is
not intelligent, not American, not
them, for the congregation and the
pastor, so, as he had written them at
first Thereupon, Mr. C. Luck dictat-
yjy~ cd and Mr. Schudemagen wrote for
1 tno botli parties:
Resolved, That the mfoutes of the
two last meetings be sp amended, that
the first resolution reads : The salary
of the paster Mr. Treptow for the year
1886 till 1886 shall be *500, aud all per-
quisites, and that he lias free every 4th
Sunday in the month. And that this
resolution of the last mectiug shall be
maintained.

Since the equalization of freights
by the Railroad Pool, Houston has
taken Us old position as the chief
and'■ best Cotton Market in the
State.
Don’t listen to last year's argu-
ments; don’t abide by last year's
experience. Everybody knows
that last year freight rates to
foreign markets were thoroughly
demoralized, and. that home mar-
kets were discriminated against.
This is no longer so. Make me a
trial shipment and see for your
self—take no man’s word, for it.
