THOUGHTS FOK THE YOUNG.
Fills*} promises lead to false con
clusions. We would impress upon
our you readers the fact that tliis
is true, not only in argument, *> l, t
true in practical life. Ihe boy, whoso
premise is, that lie knows enough to
battle with the busy world, wiil with
advancing years, find out that Ins
premise was false, but alas! ho wiil
iind it out too late. r i he boy that
premises that any particulai giade
td Honorable work is degrading, is
below his levil, and that he will not
condescend to it, but aspiro at once
to nice positions where his* hands
will not be soiled at work, is simply
making a false start in life. The boy
that is ashamed to be seen by others
at physical labor in any honorable
calling does not see himself as he
is seen by those on whom his success
or life to a great extent depends.
Mark what we say when we tell you
that such hoys are following a guide
that will lead them a struggling life
ami bring upon them poverty in old
age. Hear us when we tell you that
the industrious, pushing, business,
working men of tiro world arc not
looking for tliis class of boys to help
or to work for them. The boy
whose vanity lifts him above
the humbler walks and vocations of
life and that expects his suavity of
manners, his fine cloths and fash
ionable style to work him into the
esteem and confidence of older and
working people, is simply writing,
daily, his business doom. Tho boy
that looks above work and along
the velvety pathway of do-nothing
at all to fat money positions where
he can dross fine and live on a grand
scale, is preparing for himsolfa home
in the unfurnished hall of hardship.
Young reader if you belong to this
class of boys, then get out of it at
once. If you aro ono of this number,
then go at once, and read and re
read that old maxim, “there is no
excellence without labor;” study tho
history of successful men and learn
that they achieved their success by
work ; overcome your vanity, your
false pride; humble yourself; take
hold vigorously upon work in tho
humbler walks ofTife and work your
way to higher positions in life; ro
niombcr that tho dandy, dudish,
spendthrift boy is not the boy to at
tain to honor, trust and profit.
A Queer Position.
Mr. Sam Randall, the Pennsylva
nia protectionist, is quoted as say
ing: “The democratic party is
pledged to revise the tariff. But, in
making reductions in taxes it is not
projtosed to injure any domestic in
dustries, but rather to promote their
healthy growth. From tho founda
tion of this government taxes collect
ed at tho custom house have been
tho chief source of federal revenue;
such they must continue to be.
Moreover, many industries have
como to rely upon legislation tor
successful continuance, so that any
change of law must be at every step
regardful of the labor and capital
thus involved. The process of re
form must bo subject in the execu
tion to this plain dictate of justice.”
Mr. Randall is correct in saying
that the democratic party is pledged
to revise the tariff. Mo argument on
this statement is necessary. Meither
will wo dispute with him about
the necessity of raising taxes to sup
port the government at the custom
houses. There is ono statement,
however, which this Pennsylvania
statesman makes, which in our opin
ion, is not worthy of serious consider
ation. Ho says there aro many in
dustries which have come to rely
upon legislation for successful con
tinuance. Whenever an industry
depends ‘upon the government for
its support, \vc say let it go. Mo in
dustry that is not demanded by’ the
necessities of the people is worthy of
support from any source, and when
ever tho government leuds its aid it
is fostering an unprofitable enter
prise at tho expenso of its citizens.
Whenever the products of any enter
prise are in demand tho people will
support it, and no aid should bo
asked of the government.—Colum
bus Enquirer-Sun.
We readily endorse the views above
expressed, and commend them to
the consideration ofthe hard-worked
laborers of this country, whose earn
ings should remain in their pockets
rather than be taken therefrom to
protect the enterprises of others to
own loss.

THE MONROE ADVERTISER: FORSYTH. GA., TUESDAY, JULY 2G, 1887.—EIGHT PAGES.
The Color Line rn School*.
Savannah Morning News.
Representative Glenn's bill requir
in'' white children and colored chil
dren to be educated in sc pc rate
schools is attracting considerable at
tention not only in the state but out
side <rf it. That the bill is a good
one there is no doubt, ami that it
ought to become a law will bo gener
;dly admitted. It jjosscsses nothing
new. ft simply provides the ma
chinery for carrying into effect the
organic law of the state.
The public schools although not
as goo* 1 a* the people would liko to
have them, are steadily improving,
and in the course of a few years
they will compare favorably with
those of any other state. They are
supported almost wholly by the white
people and are willingly supported.
They would be greatly improved at
once if tho people could afford the
means to improve them. It is a
source of satisfaction that they have
so strong a hold upon the good will
of all classes, and that the sentiment
in favor of steadily improving
them is strengthening. The impor
tance of maintaining the present
harmonious and favorable feeling
with regard to them is apparent to
all sincere friends of public educa
tion.
11 tho impression once gets abroad
that the out come of the public school
system will be the education of white
and colorod children in tho same
school a hostile feeling to the sys
tem will at once manifest itself, and
if it should not prove to bo strong
enough to destroy the system there
is good reason for thinking that it
would seriously cripple it. Efforts
would he made to withhold state aid,
and to bring the system into disre
pute.
Representative Glenn’s bill docs
not discriminate against the colored
people, it simply means that for
the good of both tho white
and black races, the children of tin!
two races shall bo educated in sepa
rate schools, and that tho education
al facilities provided for ono race
shall be as satisfactory as those pro
vided for the other race. Nobody
can preton*! to speak tor the far fu
ture, but those who control the af
fairs ofthe present are dearly of the
opinion that it is wise to make tho
line of demarkation between tho
white and black races very distinct.

The State Road Lease.
Enquirer-Sun.
The discussion of tho state road
lease has been productive of much
proposed unwise legislation. The
claims of the lessees against the
state seems to havo created a groat
deal of suppriso among tho members
of the legislature, and havo been
met by them with tho proposal of
legislation not as cool and dispass
ionod as we havo tho right to expect
from the makers of our laws.
While we think tho claims of the
lessees are exorbitant, and while it
goes without saying that our leg
islators should be vigilant to protect
the interests of the state, we think
they should do so in a cool and dis
passionate manner, and not by the
.enactment of hot-blooded and, we
may add, childish legislation.
We think tho resolutions offered
Monday to refer the whole
matter to a committee wore
well timed and eminently proper
Tho legislature could take no
action in the matter which would
not he hasty and probably unwise.
A thorough understanding of the
case could not be arrived at except
by placing the whole matter in the
hands of a committee. By this com
mitted careful investigation of the
case can be made, and the facts re
ported, which will enable the legis
laturo to come to a thorough under
standing of the question, and a just
decision.
Wo think that the committee
should investigate the case and re
port the facts for the benefit, not of
this, but of the next legislature. The
whole matter should bo left with
them for final decision. We see no
reason why the legislature of 1886
should make any arrangement which
would not bo operative until 1890,
when another legislature will be
elected in 1888. It seems to us prop
er that the facts should bo investiga
ted by a committee now, in order
that tho next legislature may be
posted in reference to tho matter
when it assembles; but we think a
discussion ofthe subject and a decis
ion of it by the present legislature
premature. The present legislature
will have enough to do to decide the
questions which necessarily come be
fore it without entering into those
which belong to the future. When
they have done this, adjournment
will be in order.

Restrain The Cows.
The cow ordinance has been dis
cussed to some extent on our streets
during the last few days. While the lux
uriaut bermuda grass growing upon
some of our resident streets, and in the
suburbs ofthe city maybe very tempt
ing to the bovines, and the grazing of
them thereupon might be a source
of saving dimes to the pockets of the
owners, yet past experience has
taught us that permitting cows to
run at large on our streets has lead to
depredations by them and engendered
strife between citizens and neighbors.

TEMPTATION.
Temptation is the condition of bn
man life, and *o try to flee Irom it in
one shape is often only to provoke it
in another. Every period of life,
every class in society, every occupa
tion and calling, duties as well as
pleasures, work as well as re-=t, con
tain within them the elements of an
incessant temptation, which it is at
once our billy to ignore, our disci
pline to encounter, and our glory
to overcome. It is no Sin to he temp
ted, for Jesus, the sinless one, was
tempted in all things like as we are,
yet without sin. It is no weakness
to feel the temptation grievous, for
Jesus agnin “suffered, being temp
led” (Hob. 2: 18.) The mistake is
to run into temptation of our own
accord. The sm is in listening to
the voice of the charmer until our
hearts go out after t.he forbidden
sweetness, and it is all up with us.
The weakness is in our great terror
at the noise of the waves and the
darkness of the sky, to gaze upon
tho danger ’till we arc rapidly sink
ing ii t > it and Till it is almost too
late to call out to Him who rides up
on the storm; “Lord, save us; wo
perish !” (Matt. 8 : 25.) Yet if our
enemies are hero, our Savior is here
as well. “The name of the Lord is
a strong tower: the righteous run
neth into it, and is sale.” (Prov. 18:-
10.) 11’ the assaults of the enemy
all but exhaust us, and, liko Chris
tian with Apollyon, our sword flies
out of our hand when we want it
most, and the buttle is all but do
cidcd against us, at tho last moment,
tho way to escape shall appear, that
we may be able to bear it; tor “when
the omen}’ shall como in like a flood,
the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a
standard against him.” (Isa. 59 : 19.)
The table in tho wildcrnes is spread
by the Lord’s hand. 11c who pro
vided a morning meal by the Lake
ofGalilco for His soven disciples,
wearied by their night’s toil ; Ho
who fed tho five thousand on their
way to thepassover because lie pitied
them as sheep having no shepherd,
will be to Ins own tomptod and
wearied servants what tho good
Samaritan was to the wounded trav
eller, healing their wounds, supply
ing their needs, and comforting their
hearts. —Dr. A. YV. Thorold.
Sweet Lives.
In “Annals of a Quito Neighbor
hood” there is this gem : “So, for ray
part,” 1 said to myself as I walked
home, “if I can put one touch of a
rosy sunset into tho life of any
man or woman of care, I shall fool
that I havo walked with God.”
Walked with God! What a
strengthening, comforting, beautiful
thought! God by our side, helping
us, leading us safely whether the
way bo smooth or rough. We can
not, perhaps, be like the mountains,
grand,stately’, magnificent, soon from
afar and admired by tho multitude,
but we can bo like tho grassy doll,
beautiful with sunshine and refresh
ment, fragrant with sweot flowers,
and jubilant with the songs of birds.
The helpfulness in tho family’’ circle
if given in a gentle, unobtrusive way,
is a training which rapidly uplifts
lives. Those aro sweet lives which
seek to remove obstructing thorns
from another’s rough path, and there
is never a thorn removed from the
path without a rose being scattered
on one’s own. Mild forbearance in
regard to other people’s faults is a
necessity to every sweet life—the
suppression ol* unkind words anoth
er necessity’.
The sunshine of such lives brigh
tens darkened homes, warms chilled
hearts, and illuminates groping souls.
It even seems to havo tho power of
opening sightless eyes. Indeed, tho
power of such lives is wonderful.
They point out tho right path to
wayward feet, and beckon homeward
tho lost. They hold cups of water
to parched lips, and offer the bread
ofTife to human souls. They scatter
good seed with generous and never
tiring hand. What a harvest of gol
den sheaves will be theirs?—Chris
tian at Work.

About the Size of It?
Deadbeating newspapers is getting
to be very common—wc mean busi
ness men and others asking pub
lishers for gratuitous “puflV’or notices
in their local columns. For the
benefit and information of this class
of spongers on the newspapers we
give the following wisdom-in-a-nut
shell paragraph from an exchange :
“Every line set in a newspaper office
costs somebody’ something, if it be
for the benefit of an individual or
firm it should be paid for. if the
grocer were asked to donate groce
ries, or the dry goods merchant a
dross pattern or a pair of shoos, to a
person abundantly’ ablo to pay for
them, they would indignantly’ refuse
and consider the applicant a stark
fool or a deadbeat of tho first water.
Tho proprieter of a paper must pay’
for the free advertising if tho bene
ficiary does not. Every publisher
ought to refuse to give free puffs to
other men’s business. They’ are
gratuities that demoralize business.
Publishers should charge tor this
sort of advertising, and let their pat
rons know they will do no more of
it.” —Albany News and Advertiser.
There is not only as much truth
as poetry, but good common sense
in the above lines. It is just about
as reasonable for a customer, who
buys a coat to ask the mer
chant to give him a two dol
lar bat, as for the ordinary news
paper sponger to ask for compli
mentary’ “puffs” and notices in the
editor’s local columns, for which they’
do not propose to pay one cent. To
write these complimcntaries requires
and labor, and “the laborer is
hire.”
Public .School.
The school question is one that is
engaging the attention of the people
of this whole country’, and properly
so, for it is a question of magnitude
and importance. That for a decade
or more after the late war this ques
tion did not receive the attention
it merited and that tiie times deman
ded is sadly true. This neglect natur
ally grew out of the impoverished
condition of our people, nevertheless
that impoverishment did not author
ize so great neglect of so inqiortaut a
question.
But in more recent years our peo
ple have been waked up to its impor
tance, and the question now before
them is to attaiu the best method of
providing for the future on this point.
With the lights before them it is
almost universally conceded that the
exigencies of the case demand that
the very best possible educational
facilities shall be brought within the
reach of our children, and that this
must he done under a cheap tuition.
Indeed, so well grounded have become
our people in the belief that the times
demand this, that many parents seem
to have despaired of educating their
children by their own efforts. On
this question Forsyth’s demands aro
not a whit behind other sections of
tiie country. Indeed her present and
future interests seem now to hinge
upon her progress in this particular.
The devising of a system whereby
the best educational facilities combin
ing cheap tuition and the best teaching
talent can be brought within the reach
of our children, is upon us and we can
not throw it off, if we would.
As to system, we claim that we, in
Forsyth, already have the best. With
a number of years experience as a
teacher we are satisfied that a sepa
rate education of the sexes, especially
beyond certain ages, is far superior to
co-education. And we have reasons
very satisfactory to us for thisopinion.
Then as we have the best system of
schools, the only thing needful to
meet the demand that is upon us, is
to devise means for a cheap tuition
upon a basis whereby we can keep
the best teaching talent. Can we, the
people of Forsyth, do this? Are we
adequate to the task? “Where there’s
a will, there’s a way.” Have we
the will? If so then there is but one
way, and that is to put our hands in
our pockets, pull out the money and
plank it down to a general school
fund to be judiciously appropriated
for this purpose. There is no other
round about method of argument or
side figuring by which this can be
done. Money is the only oil that will
lubricate such a machine and keep it
running. And if our people have fully
and completely made up their minds
to furnish thjs oil, then are they ready
to adopt the modus operandi of run
ning our scfropls upon a cheap tuition.
’Tis useless'to'dally with this question
upon any other line of thought. Nor
are there other successful methods of
raising this needed general school
fund for this purpose than by taxa
tion. No government, whether school,
municipal, or state, can he successful
ly run without taxation.
Lastly’, can public schools be kept
up on a successful line by taxation
and cheap tuition at a less burden to
the people than by’ high tuition ? We
believe they can. It lias been and is
being done in other places. Why not
here? This question is being dis
cussed by our people. Let it he
thoroughly sifted. And ifitbedecided
to adopt the public school upon a
cheap tuition basis, let the plan de
vised be such as not to interfere with
our present school system.

Where Rests Use Fault?
We have a natural aversion to fault
finding and grumbling, butour recent,
frequent disappointments growing
out of the postal department, leads us
to enquire where the fault rests. We
occasionally mis3 getting the Tele
graph, and sometimes the Constitu
tion. Why, we can not tell. Letters
mailed in Barnesville, our near
neighbor, are sometimes a day behind
in reaching us. Batches of the Ad
vertiser mailed here are sometimes
behind in reaching other railroad
post offices in the county, so our
subscribers inform us. Why these
things are so, we know not, but there
is evidently fault somewhere. Again
we frequently have complaints from
subscribers that they do not get the
Advertiser mailed to them at tliis
ollice, and from those to whom we
know the papers to have been mailed.
Whether these missing papers are
taken out of the office by the friends
of the owners, and never delivered to
the owners, we know not. But we do
know that from repeated occurrences
of this kind, there is fault somewhere,
and we call attention to this fact with
the hope that the fault may be discov
ered aud these annoyances cease.

A called meeting, of the woman’s

flow many idiosyncrasies of tem
perament, as they are called, really
have their n>bt in one or the other
ol the cardinal sins, and only need
to be stripped of the rcspeetahle
name under which they now mas
querade to bo a.s heartily despised as
they deserve. A sermon which wo
heard not long since was devoted to
this unmasking of foibles, and among
others drew attention to what goes
by the name ot “sensitiveness.” This
was traced back to pride, and the
assertion made that self-love, egotism,
was really the cause of most of that
over-sensitiveness which is common
ly attributed solely to delicacy’ of
organization. What a revelation the
suggestion is. If a man is filled with
a Christian spirit, is thinking of
others, working for others from
morning till night, ho will have no
time wherein to morbidly count up
the slights, fancied or otherwise,
which his neighbor has put upon
him. Half the quarrels in the world,
the jealousies ami misunderstandings,
which make life hard, which mar,
alas, the unity of tho Christian church
so grievously’, aretlio fruits of this same
inordinate self-love, if anything of
the Clirist-spiriL of self renunciation
were within us, these things were
impossible in our lives. The plcaof
“sensitiveness” may excuse and
cover up] selfishness in tho oy’cs of
men, but such evasions serve not to
deceive God. Forget yourself, and
you will soon forget to inquire
whether the world treats you with
all consideration due; you will have
too much tor the Master’s work on
your hands to be “sensitive.”

Washington, July 20. —Oscar J.
ilarvcy, tho treasury department
forger, was arraigned in the district
criminal court this afternoon, and
pleaded guilty to the charge set forth
in the indictment. He was sentenced
by Judge Montgomery to twelve
years imprisonment at hard labor in
the Albany penitentiary. In pass
ing sentence Judge Montgomery
said that while the situation of the
pisoner’s family appealed to him,
the protection of society was to be
considered, and an example must be
in ado. There was but one way to
stop crime, and that was'to punish
it. The prisoner had robbed tho
government, not through sudden
impulse, but through a scheme pur
sued for months. The reason urged
for a lenient sentence were matters
for the consideration of the execu
tive. He himself could do no less
than sentence the accused to twelve
years’ imprisonment, three years on
each count of the indictment. The
prisoner received the sentence with
composure.
