Diversify 1 our CropM.
The history of the last twenty years
in Monroe county has clearly demon¬
strated the importance of deversitiea
tion of crops by our farmers. A want
of this lias actually empoverished
many farmers w ho have made a con¬
tinuous hard struggle for these twen¬
ty years. The grand and prime
mission of the Farmers Alliance, as
set forth in the principles of the order
is to correct this ei ror. And we hope
every alliance man in Monroe county
will move forward at once on this
line w ith a fixed purpose to accom¬
plish this object. Nothing short of
this will bring them plenty; nothing
short of it will bring to them peace
and contentment, at home; nothing
short of it w ill bring them independ¬
ence.
On this point the Farmers’Alliance
Advocate sajrs:
“ The farmers may “cuss” the mer
chants and talk rough about them,
but will have to go to them for rations,
jvs they they have been doing, as long as
make cotton to huv everything
from a pin to a steam engine. If the
Alliauee fails to inculcate principle's
of independence through diversifica¬
tion it will prove a shameful failure.
Let the revolution commence at once.

Democrats of 32 on roe*
Remember that Tuesday the 6 th
dav of November is the day on which
the election for president and for a
representative to the 5tst congress
from this district wiil he held. This
being the year for a full crop of elee
tions which fall on different days and
dates, don’t get them mixed up, but
bear in mind that the first Tuesday
in November is the day for the presi
dential election. Many voters seem
to be indifferent in regard to the ap
preaching election upon the idea that
there is no opposition or no party op
posing the democrats here. This is
u mi-take and ami-take that tells
against the south. The votes polled
at these elections pas- into history
and become political data which are
used as capital by republicans against
southern representatives in congress,
Hence it is not onlv important, but
the duty of democrats to attend the
election and east their ballot. This is
one of the grand prerogatives of an
! American freeman. Therefore we
urge every democrat in Monroe conn
ty to he at toe polls on Tuesday the
tub of November ‘
aud to vote.
Tl»c State Fair.
I We again call the attention of our
people which in Monroe to the state fair
will open on the 5th of Noveni
her and continue six days. The
managers that tends are make pushing everything
to the fair interest
ing and a grand exhibit of Georgia’s
resources. The prospect now is that
! the coming fair will be the most in
foresting mid most varied in exhibits
ever held in the state.
There will he, on one day during
the progress of the fair which day is
everybody, not yet set, a mammoth barbecue for
and a grand and most
attractive pyrotechnic display at
night.
We insist that the live farmers of
our displays county stock, get up good individual
of produce, &c., which
they can do, and take them to the
fair. Monroe should sustaiu her
reputation, and as she will have no
county should exhibit, her individual citi¬
zens shoulder this duty. By
tiie time the fair opens, the rush of
work on the farms will be over; so let
everybody take a day of recreation
and spend that day at the fair.

The i’ubUc .School.
The question of establishing a pub¬

for submission to a vote of her citi
zens. This is an important issue.
Upon a proper and a right decision of
this question hinges to a cm siderable
extent the future edfieational interest
of Foraytli and also largely its future
growth and prosperity. The decision
of this question will decide also
whether or not Forsyth shall enter
into competition on this line and
claim tiie proud prestige from an edu¬
cational standpoint to which she is
entitled. Therefore our citizens
should not act upon so important a
question without thought, but should
consider it well in all its bearings and
be prepared to act-upon to intelligent¬
ly. not from selfish motives, but with
view to establishingour schools upon
such a basis as will make thgm
worthy of our intelligent people.

WHAT IS A GRADED PUBLIC
SCHOOL !
It is important for the intelligent
discussion of the question of public
schools now agitated among our
people, that we understand definitely
what is meant by the term “a graded
public school.”
In the first place, “It may he de¬
fined as a school whose organization
is based upon, and whose classifica¬
tion and daily work is determined
by a course of study divided into
steps or grades, corresponding to
different degrees of attainment in
knowledge.’ The school is divided
into four departments; the primary;
the intermediate ; the grammar, and
the high school or Collegiate. Each
ofthc.se departments consists of three
grades, and each grade requires a
years The study for its completion.
lessons system begins with the first
of the pupil and prepare!*
them for the junior class or a deploma
in onr.highest female colleges. Thus
it will be seen this system furnishes
not only a good common school edu¬
cation, but a high school and collegi¬
ate course. These Institutions ea n
be chartered and authorized to
grant diplomas and confer degrees
like an}- other school of their class.
There is nothing little about the
gradq|l public school system. These
schools are the
“people’s COLLEGES.”
The idea that they are an inferioror
lower class of schools, compared to
those we now have, is a grand mis¬
take. Because it is a public school,
many people confound it with the
elementary schools now taught
under that system. Such is not the
case. We beg you not to mistake
its object and mission. The graded
system stands to-day the best ex¬
ponent of the educational thought of
the age, and the best representative
of educational progress. It has all
the advantages of the old system and
but few or none of its disadvantages.
By its wise division of labor, its sys¬
tematizing of work and ; its its cheapness^,,
its libci iy of action,
to act, it enjoys such conditions for
educational work as enables it to
give the maximum resultat minimum
cost. Therefore this is the
system that has been adopted
in almost every important
town and city in the United States.
Lastly, as the name indicates, it is a
public enterprise and is supported
wholly or partly by taxation, arid its
Instructors are paid salaries.
What are the advantages that the
graded public school system possesses
which make it superior to all other
schools for our
In the first place, it is the best
system because it is a system. In
the second place, it is a system
founded on the wisdom and experi¬
ence of the best educators of the age.
It proposes something definite to be
accomplished and has a definite
method for accomplishing that
object. The Whole course of study
from the primer to the diploma is
laid out in detail in accordance with
the views and teachings of the high¬
est educational authorities of the
times. The pupil is confined to this
course, and knows exactly what he is
expected to learn during every term
of the twelve years course. System

these difficulties are to a large ex¬
tent surmounted, arid those results
are possible under its condition which
t am,ot be aluined by the acade.nv
a ' u ' . o.d < , field . . schoois. , . ; Indeed Tri . _ , we
claim that the graded school offers
btrtler advantages than any of these
in their best estate. In the second
place, sufficient time is allowed for
each study, that it ;nay be thorough
ily mastered. In the gradad schools
pupils have a twelve years course,
while in other institutions they get
from two to seven and these years
by piece meal, or separated by long
intervals. Much has to be neglected
much left untaught ‘ to * such
pupus. . Third!} q*. • , no pupil :i s pro¬

after year. The fact that attendance is
almost universal causes the pupils to
move up and on luce an army from
one point to another.
This system will have but few
stragglers and few irregulars, and
these parties must fall in when they
do come back, right at the place they
dropped out,unless they can pass the
examination oftheir class.Here is one
of the great advantages of the graded
school over other schools, it does
secure the attendance of its pupils.
The long roll of students at Barnes
viHe, Ncwnan, Atlanta and other
places is positive proof of this fact.
Tliere are regulations and rules upon
this subject which the school board
has ample authority to enforce
which united with other motives
conspire to produce a good atten¬
dance. What is the history of other
higher institutions? The pupils do
not come at all, or they drop in one
by one through the term and one by

Again, }he fact that the people put
their money into this enterprise and
are responsible for its direction; and
the fact that this system gives such
universal satisfaction will greatly
interest them and unite them in its
support.
It will attract patronage from
abroad as no other does. This con¬
stitutes no small source of revenue
to a city. Last year Barnesville
received eighty pupils from abroad ;
they brought to that city’s coffers at
least twelve thousand dollars.Besides
this, a large number has been induc¬
ed to locate there for the purpose of
educating their children. This
has brought thousands of dollars to
that city.
As it “masnet” to attract mwl a
Bonanza” to onpich, the graded
public 1 school is hereby J and herein
awarded the first . overall ,,
premium
eompetitors.lt is the cheapest. There
fore ilisthe best,it secures, by tlie pay¬
ment of salaries the best talent as
teachers, and by the inherent and
concomitant advantages of the sys¬
tem the best result for the least money.
This system is bo*t for the pupil,
the patrons, the community at
large. It has blessed every town
that has tried it. Let us inaugurate
the graded public; school system here
in Forsyth and fall m line with the
progressive towns of the state and
country. W. J. N.

We are glad to learn that some of
our farmers are sowing oats. This is
an important crop and seldom fails to
return a fair remuneration for the
labor expended on it. Also we learn
that many of our farmers contemplate
sowing much larger acreage in wheat
than usual. This is a step in the
right direction, and especially ho
when the present price of flour is
considered.

On interviewing some of our mer¬
chants last week we were pleased to
hear them say that the farmers were
paying up their accounts, notes, Ac.,
better than heretofore. This speaks
well for the farmers. We hope to see
the time when our Monroe farmers
can adhere to the motto, “pay as you
go” and owe nothing.
