In oue brief article no attempt can be made to mention the various elements that have combined to make the Louisiana Puichas- Exposition what it is the most colossal creation of man. Neither can President Francis ana nis able assistants be given popei credit or due praise lor tneir un tiring efforts in the en,ice at onr command. The Louisiana Purchase Expo sition has been, and i3, the greatest school of all history. It has brought together nature's rarest and richest treasures her miner als, her flora, her fauna, the greatest efforts of the human hand the brightest achievments of the human intellect, and blended them in one harmonious whole. Nature's stores have been brought from the torrid zoue, the arctic circle, the ocean's depths and the moun tain's heights, from Afric's burn ing sands, from Sibeiia's frozen plains, from "Karlb'a loneliest oounus, ana ucean-s wildest shore" The works of man, of his brawn and his brain, from the forest's depths and the marts of trade are here side by side. Man's handiwork, the useful and the beautiful from the Occident and The Institute. Resolutions. Last Thursday morning the teachers from the rural districts, villages, auJ towns of Frauklm County assembled at the count s?at for the purpose of holding their regulir annual association meeting of three days' duration. The sessions were held in the circuit court 100m and were attended by mauy visitors. Though most of the teachers' examinations have been held in Union, as well as a few stuall pedogogical gatherings, the teachers have not held their regular institute here since the summer or isin, wnen it contin ued for a period of four weeks. The shortening of the term, the change of date from the sweltering dog days of mid-summer to the time when October in Missouri is in its hour of glory, as well as the fact that instead of incurring an expense scarcely able to be borne, teachers now receive partial re- numeration for attendauce these a a . 1 I are a lew oi tne reasons wny me present institute law is so popular among the teachiug fraternity. With very few exceptions, the entire teacning forte of the couuty which numbers oue hundred aud fifty-two were present, and to the fact that those unable to secure accomodations at the hotels on account ot the lack of room were Louis is the orient, are here to please the hospitably entertained at the eve and instruct.

Bauer, Jeffriesburg, Mo. Hon. A. E. L. Gardner, the republican nominee for the State Senate from this district has been making a reputation by delivering j politial speeches in different parts of the state for the republican party. He has lofts of time for this work as the democrats have nominated no one against him. Attorney W. L. Cole returned Sunday morning from the western part of the state where he had been making political speeches under the auspices of the Republican state committee. Mr. Cole speaks most encouragingly of the prospects in the section of the state where he has been, lie fays democrats came to him every where and told him thpy were going to vote for Walbridge, and by the way all the papers gi7e the most flattering reports of Mr Cole as a political speaker. Mr. D. W. Newsom, left last Monday night for. Cotton Plant, Aarkansas and Fort Worth, Texas. He goes to Cotton Plant, with his aunt Mrs. M. S. Sim mons. He will go to Fort Woith and visit bis brother, and to purchase a cotton plantation. Mr. Neson!s example is worthy of consideration by all laboring men. He came to Union less than 'five years ago as a common laborer in building the railroad west of Union j and has saved enough money since then to purchase a cotton planta tion. When asked for the sectet of bis success Newsom said, I work ed thtee years and fire months for the railroad without losing a single day, and I was never on a drunk or in a saloon when wanted, and I have saved all I made and been faithful to the railroad company as if I had been working for myself, Of course, Mr Newsom has leceired several promotions since he began working for Mr. Mc Carthy for $1.50 a day. We are glad to know that Mr. Newsom expects to remain a citizen of Union. of savagery to the enlightened creations of our own civilization. All of this and more, yea more than eve can see or mind can grasp. It is not alone the world of to dav that is here. The Louisiaua Purchase Exrjosition is a compre hensive epitome of every phase of the world's progress and human development from creation's dawn until this day's rising sun. bach and every step in the development. of mankind from his lowest prim Uive condition to the crowning civilization of the twentieth century is seen, as it were, in one sweeping horoscope.

It is seen that the desire for human progress, latent though it may be, is in tne breasts oi savages as wen as in the hearts of kings. The lessons to be learned from this great txiosiiicn ate count less, the benefits to be derived from it are numberless. Each individual learns a different lesson and one as great as is his capacity to grasp the knowledge that is thus brought before him. It has broadened human thought, enlarg ed the intellect and enuobled the soul of man and made him more liberal iu his views of life aud his fellow man. It has made him more sincere in his conceptions o life and life s duties, more ear nest for the elevation of humanity to a higher and broader intellect ual aud moral plane.

Cla,jer & Michel, were busy hulling clover in this neighborhood the first of the week. Several of tho youngsters of this place, attended the dance at Dan .Geobs ot Leslie, Saturday night. All present report a good time. Lectures were delivered by Dr A. Rose Hill, Dean of the Teach ers College at the State University. Pres. U. S Dearmont of ttie Cape Girardeau Normal, J. S. Col lins, Ass't Supt. of the St. Louis Schools, and Prof. S. Y. Gillan. All the addresses and especially the different talks and illustrated lessons delivered by Mr. .Gillan, were received with much f ivor b the teachers, many of whom were beard to remark that point of pro fessional profitability tt is meeting bad never been excelled by any heretofore held in the county The general discussions were al ways of sufficient volume, vigor and humor to make them interest ing and afford much material for future reflection and reminiscence Saturday had heen advertised as Directors' and Patrons' D.iv, but not many school boards were rep resented. One of the speakers said that in oue of the eastern states, it is a fixed custom for every teacher to defray the expen ses of a member of the school- board to attend that meetintr: and that in that locality school direc tors always attend. He also siid that teachers never lose nn thing oy this seeming generosity, but that in the long run it is a good investment and even pays big dividends. S me teach ers thought it might b- well to introduce this method into Mis souri for much good might result from an exchange of id bus among directors. Various educational publica- cation9 were represented ty Mr, A. F. Borberg to the satisfac tioo of all parties concerned. Thursday eyeuing the audience was.,kept waiting for a long time by the traiu on which Dr. Hill ar rived being several hours late; but the teachers were happily enter tained meanwhile by the Union Orchestra. The next meetiug will be held at .New Haven at such a time as may suit the conveinence of the state superintendent in the assign ing of speakers. New Haven has not been called upon to entertain the teachers of Franklin County "in institute assembled" for a decade or perhaps longer; and to many teachers the next association will offer the first opportunity to visit our well known and enterprising bit 'i i city. The committee on resolutions reported the following: .Echoes of the Association. The teachers Associa'iou should he a model school. Teachers should De punctual and regular at all the sessions. The writer would like to know how many of Frank lin county teachers would grade 100 if marked by that standard. If we could always see ourselves The venerable ex-pedagogue in making the address of welcome took occasion to say that there was far to much juvenility, (ex tuse the word) teaching school now-a-days. the brother ha certainly forgotten that he too once was a verdant youth with moie ambition than scholarship aud kept school just like young teachers do iu th'S days of youth ful strenuosity. Elasco Greeu was distributing cards announcing his candidacy for school commissioner. Y have been told that this means race between him and the -present incumbent J. R. Moore both mem bers of the County Board of Edu cation. And with our vivid im agination we see S. V. Cheatham joining in the race, and we have a three cornered fight of the county board iu a scramble, such as agita- 11 m m mm A Scolding Wife, A Tight Shoe, An Elect rc Light Bill, Thes are Painful in the Extreme but An Unreliable WATCH Is An Abomination.

Won't it be a spectacle to see such a contest! But l can ten you now the name of the victor in such case. Can't you my gentle readerT The teachers from "Washington, Union, Pacific, St. Clair, and Sul livan were all at the association. But how about New Ilven. Per haps that ia why the ucxt ni'-eting is to be held in New Haven. It does not seem fiir to Franklin county teachers for school boards to employ teachers from other counties, and they come here and ignore our home teacners and meetings. In one case we know of one family, different members of which have come into our couuty and taught every year for the last ten years, part of the time two of them were teaching in the coun ty at once and they have never at tended bat one county teachers' meeting. Is this fair to out teach ers who are compelled to attend! Does it show the right kind ol spirit toward our own institutions? Let the school boards answer. And the resolution favoring free text books! We wonder how many ot franklin county's pro gressive teachers nave even given the subject a passing thought. How many of them as teachers would like to be in charge of school wnen the time arrived to distribute bonks that lud been us ed before by other pupils, to a class, oz perhaps would have some new and soma old books to distribute, which would only in crease the cause for dissatisfaction. How many of them as parents would be willing for their children to use books that had been used by othtr children, from all kinds of homes and of all conditions of life, previously. And yet our teachers favor free text books, or was the resolutions prssed in respect to Prof Gillan. Let us be true to ourselves. Prof. Gillan's reading lesson on Saturday afternoon was one of the best reading lessons ever given in Franklin county. He is certainly a master in that line. ll is tne most practical man that has come among us. What was the matter with Thudi- um and Gerber! Only a case of misunderstanding. Well it is the portion of mankind to be misun derstood. Some of us are never understood but, teachers should have a great deal of patience in dealing with the shortcomings of humanity. But to lose our tem per and say harsh things is a frailty too. It was surprising to see so ma ny of i he teachers leave at the end of the second day. To our pupils we must appear as very unfaithful soldiers to leave before the batt'.e is over, aud to our school boards that we just attended long nough to draw our pay from the district and when the pay stopped we stopped. Oh could we see ourselves as others see us. Are school teachers deficien in parliamentary usage? Does a mo tion to adopt resolutions require a second or can resolutions be adopt ed without motion or second? Would it not be a good exercise for the next Teachers' Association to have an hour for drill on Reed's Rules of order, every day during the session to the end that the tusines3 session at its close be transacted in a business way.

The Tribune has received a letter from Jos. T. Davis, the Democratic candidate for prosecuting Httorney correcting our statement that he had not been admitted t3 practice in the circuit court of Franklin county. Because as he says, his diploma from the State University admits him to all the courts of the state, also the State Supreme Court, and he also states that he be has been admit ted to practice before the United States Court. The Tribune stands corrected. It should have used the word 'enrolled" in our county instead of admitted. The Tribune had no desjrd to draw Mr. Davis' qualifications into question but when his Democratic friends attributed to him superior or great qualifications for the office, we deemed it but justice to the voters to say that Mr. Davis is a young man just graduated from law school with practically no practice whatever before the courts ol the state. Any one who tries to encourage Mr. Davis in his race is doing him an injustice. Mr. Moyersieck'a maj rity will be between 800 and 1000. Fifty Years tho Sfan Jtrd by 1.
