MISS ELLEN J. DORTCH.
..........—
Those who go to war take the risk
of being wounded. Honor is as sa-
ored to a man as to a woman, and
those who slanderously attack it de-
servo only to be known as crawling
creature*. Miss Ellen J. Dorcli,
through the Tribune, has said many
things about me that arc slanderously
false, and if she w ill put some one to
the front who does not wear a petti-
coat, that will back up her charges.
1 will endeavor to convince him that
I am not the coward that she would
have me be.
I stated the facts about the Grand
Jury Presentment*, ami that is what
hurts Miss Ellen J. Dortch. \V by
di.l not Miss Ellen J. Dortch
publish all I said, and publish
it together, and then continent
on it? She* did'not want to do
me justice. Miss Elk'll J Dortch’s L *
article is a begging slimier from one
i
end to the other, and no truly brave
woman would have written it, Miss !
Dortch says she did put in a bid for
thc printing. One of the committee
who.se business it was to take bids,
and another one of the grand-jury-
men, said that she did not. '1 hat was
my authority.
Miss Ellen J. Dortch charges that
Thk Kvikki-iiisk has been a
Hpicnous “straddler" on public issues.
This charge is an infamous falsehood,
aud every reader of Thk Kntkki*«isk
knows it. T iik Enterimhhe has not
*cen proper to go into exaggerations
about measures it opposed, aud will
not do so hereafter.
Miss Dortch insinuates that Tiie
Kxtkkpkisk would have never re¬
eeived any of the legal advertisement*
had tlie sheriff been other than my
brother. With equal fairness I can
state that the Tribune would have
none of the legnls lmt for the
that the ordinary is her uncle.
Miss Dortch docs not hesitate to
display her egotism by praising the
ability of the Tribune at the dispar¬
agement of Tin: Enferi risk. Miss
Ellen J. Dortch knows that at the
time I bought l iik Enthkckisk out-
lit that her father was editor and pro-
priotor of the Tribune. Miss Ellen
J. Dortch knows that her name did
not appear as editor of the Tribune
until just three days before the first
issue of The Enterprise. Miss
Ellen J. Dortch knows that her father
shoved her between him and tlie peo-
pie to keep the Tribune from sinking,
aud Miss Ellen J. Dortch further
knows that the Tribune was not
thy of the county’s patronage at
time . she , assumed , tlie , editorship.
1
Knowing all this, it is unseemly un-
fair for her to claim so much for the
Tribune and allow *o little for The
Enterprise.
The charges I made were against
the action of a part of the grand ju¬
rors, and unless words have lost their
meaning and common sense is an
enigma, the following should have
satisfied Miss Dortch’s mind that her
skirts were clear. Here are the ex¬
act word*:
“Let it be plainly understood that
we do not charge anything whatever
to the editor of the Tribune that is
questionable in this matter from any
standpoint, and that everything that
we havsaid that might lie thus eon-
strued is wholly independent of her
good name.”
This removed Miss Dortch from
any and every charge in my article,
and whether she understands what
was meant by the nharges or
others do. As to the statement
-Miss an *. Dortch, .1 that , the , matter cannot
stand where . it Is, I will state that the
c arges were not made against her,
and that I will consult my own
*«to4raign»tingii»ditMiutla-tlmtiii
a matter twlneen nu- and them.
If m true thiit tu y financial enndi-
tioti is anything but (icuratile, having
limt over fuur thousand dol-
lain by fire, which left me badly in
debt and nothing to pay with,'but
Mian Dortcdi is the first one to pub-
liely rejoice at it.
As to Miss Dortch's educational
trimmings, and lucrative positions 1
that site holds at her disposal and !
egotistically publishes for my henfit »I
I have nothing I ;
to say. was once |
an inmate of the school house myself, j
and have since had some very good i
positions offered me, but it may be of
interest to Miss Ellen J. Dortch to
know that I have about made up my
mind to stay in Camesville and wit-
nos.- her efforts to kill Thk Entku-
pkise. - Lon J. M< Connkm..
Alliance Resolutions.
Following are resolutions passed ,
by tlie CamcsTille Alliance, Xo
1030, at their meeting April 4, 1891: {
Whereas, that the old cotton sys-
, t . |n () f f nrm jng has retarded the sue-
«-css of the farming interests of our
country, and that the continuous
rain ha * gre*tly deterred our plant-
ing in due time, and believing that it
is to our interest to plant less cotton
and more of the grain crops, and that j
the p rt *-ent y.rir os of cotton is not
sufficient to justify us to plant the'
usual amount of that product, and
think it best that we should raise a!
s " f,i, it ‘ rjt amount of supplies to make |
farms self-supporting as possible,
he it therefore
Resolved, That we, the Uarnes-
ville sub-Alliance, No. 1G30, of
Franklin county, in session aesera-
bled, do pledge ourselves to comply
" ith th « abov « as ne » r
in our power, and that we will re-

further
Resolved, That we, being an agn-
cultural class, will foster and use the
best means available to make a sue-
ces* of our avocation. Be it further
Resolved, That we are non-partisan
in politics, but do pledge ourselves to
support and use our influence in fa-
vor of the man who will serve tlie
best interests of the greatest number
of people and will give the agricul-
turn! classes the same chance as oth¬
er industries, lie it further
Resolved, That we will sustain and
endorse the Action and course of our
leading officials of the Alliance. Be
j it further
Resolved, That a copy of these res¬
olutions be sent to Tiik Kntkicckisk

SYSTEMS OF EDUCATION.
A good deal in U*tng «aid about
*y»tems of inutruetion,and new idea*,
normal method*. Some nenaihle
,hin ^ ar4> hht,(U < [ ,lwwn »« ««, but
much more of unmitigated . nonnenae.
A ayatem of education, like a system
0 f p ()Ver mnent or religion, is to Ik*
tested only bv the men and women it
^ •
produces. As in physical science ex-
iwriment must be made the test of
* 1,r< » KO 610 nunt.il an<l
moral operations for the development
of humanity.
Now it is a lamentable fact that in
oar schools generally there is either no
system at all, or one that is bad in its
results. With some the bullet-mould
system is in vogue, the system about
which Parson John talks so well in
Ken elm <'/lilliityli/. He says it fuses
all minds m the same ladle and easts
them in the same mould. That it
substitutes a common for an indivtd-
mil character, and while it may foster
talent it ignores and destroys genius.
is tho system that has cursed the
Northern public schools, and is now-
getting to Ik* alarmingly prevalent in
'Le public schools of the South. This
is certainly bad.
But there is a worse system than
t ' v “ 1 t,lls ’ an ' 1 11 “ fashionable too
It « the idea that the mind of a child
» a ^vre receptacle of facts or theo-
a sort of depot where the trump-
<'>y of educational baggage-masters
may he dumped at, pleasure, to be
for at some future indefinite
time. This is a sort of hypodermic
injection as used by the emhalmers
"f olden time, merely to leave the
dead form in its present shape. And
the young mind so treated will be
like Bulwer’s idea of the mummy in
a stone sarcophagus, shut in forever
from the “whisper of winds and the
gI T* ° f StarS -”
1 hetie of . the uiaaHtroua .. f
arc some
results that have been brought about
by the hunt after w ild theories and
new methods and untested conject¬
ures. We must come back to the
old landmark idea, an idea neither
original nor pleasing to these modern
mind carpenters. That old idea i*
like a pharos-light far above the
waves that splash and climb at tlie
base of the rock on which it is placed.
It shines serenely still, and its light
on the waters directs the ship aright
on its way to a safe haven. It lias
easy utterance : “To educate i:< to de¬
velop.” It is not to make one man
all Latin, another all Mathematics;
but it is to unfold u man, fully devel¬
oped in all his capacities and capa¬
bilities. A pupil is really educated
when he is made a hero in his indi¬
viduality. lie must be an adult in
intellect, who can do as well as can
think. One of the Grecian philoso¬
phers, said, and it was a grand and
beautiful thought, of his intellectual
faculties: “1 call them not mine but
me. It is these which make and arc*
the man.” Now that education,
" llK,I ‘ ,nost ‘dTectuaily prepares men
to think and to act, is manliest and
bt ’ st * -Men in fact are valuable, not
in proportion to what they know, but
to what they can do. Every youth
has a “can-do” in him. It is tlie
P rov * ,l<e tbe school-room to reach
t^a'i aqd impart to it the ngorous
(* ro "th that shall develop into po¬
tent action.
Now in all confidence be it assert¬
ed that this is tlie sort of edu¬
cation that lias been productive of
best results, as exemplified in tlie
characters of great men. It was this
kind of training that made Daniel
Webster the logician, orator, and
statesman that he was. It was this
that made John C. Calhoun the met¬
aphysician, expounder of the consti-
tution, and bold vindicator of South-
era rights . , and , honor , that , , ho
45 was.
was tins that , made Edward Ever-
ett the lhetorieian and the scholar
of unnvaled attainments that , he
was. It was this kind of training
(though mostly self-given) that lift¬
ed Henry Clay from the “mill-boy
of the slashes" te the “sage of Ash¬
land” and the winning orator of the
western continent. It was this same
process of develoment that cast a
halo of glory around the frail form
and pale features of our own immor¬
tal Alex Stevens, whenever he arose
to address an audience of his fellow
citizens. The bar, the bench, the
hustings, and the pulpit have ob-
tained their brightest gems of lofty
genius from this same mine of un¬
.^j and splendor that were
brought to light by the educator’s
developing toil.
