I We are in rec ipt of an sd Iress de- j ] lirered by State Superintendent of E3ncati?>n McMihta ?>n TneUou; try Sch ool Problem " The address i? , thoughtful a*id to th ? pMnr, It should ] bs iu the hinds of er-ry citiz-n. Mr. 1 McMahan makes plaia the importance ( of the so u'ion of this problem. The < ' 1 * - ^ '?? t - --3 I . points oroogac out iu me au'w nc worthy of beiog impressed upon the ' people of the State, and we eh >11 bri? 11? j state them: , 1. "It (the country school problem) i is the problem of cik agricultural < emancipation, of onr indutrii! p-os- ' perity." 2. ''The #ouut-y school problem is ] the problem of good government." 1 lutelligent citizenship i* dependent ! upon it. ( 3. It is ''the problem of UiveoiSed i life, of all round interest." Educated farmers all need to attain educated methods in firming. 4. It is "the problen of our na ional vigbr" Cities and towns mu^t bej backed by the country." The ciiy seems to require a back coantry to draw upon for rein forcemeats " i o It is "indeed the problem of the i preservation of our CaucaVi in civilizition and parity of blooU." Mr. McMahan doe? not think that j the one t^ing needed U longer term*, l?nf cnepi-al thina* are needed: fH 1 O V / | better teaching aud mere intelligent . effort towards moulding character, i (2) batter conrsj of study, (3) better moral sapport from local authorities, (4) better supervision (5) better or- ( gamzation and division of Ifbe school ] itself, (6) bettei financial support. i The impossibility to enlist txo regi- 1 ments io the S.>ath for the war in the ' Philippine* indicate! very strongly ( that the South is opposed to the war, ( with its policy of expansion, and yet ( the South i* the fighting sectioa of the ! United States. The recruiting officers ( at Fjrt McPherson, Gi , bad succeed- j, ed a week or two ago in enlisting: oily 635 men, and at Fort Sam Houston, Texas, only 549 men. The war deparimenfc will, therefore, depend upon Northern and Western man to complete these regiments. The indifference in the South is easily explained. It is not a lack of patriotism, but the South cm have no heart in the ' war. Unlike Northerners, Southerners cannot fi*ht for money alone; they fight on a higher plane. Southerners lo/e principles, Jand it is for principle that they will fisrht. For this reason, the Southerner makes the best fighter. They feel that these poor wretches in the Philippines are strno'orliner for their liberties, inst as much as the Americans did in the war j of the revolution. { ^ ? i "There are signs of hot times in 1 politics next year."?Columbia Record. ( Hot times are not strange times in j the politics of this State. The masses j of the people have about concluded i nevertheless to keep cool in politics. 1 The ofSce-seekers may get as hot as * they please. i The number of Dames ibat are being e added to the Business League is very J gratifying. Work is the life of an 1 organization. Withont work to do, \ men cannot be kept in a state of 1 organization. The League should, ( therefore, try to have something to do ' all the time. ( "Not a few Reformers have arrived j at the conclusion that 'peace and unity' is a banana peeling on a smooth pavement"?Columbia Record. Yes, it doesn't snit a few, especially , those who can't get the offices except c by drawing the bitter factional line* 1 - , 1 A woman, whose former home ?vas " in New York, moved with her has- j band to Pennsylvania.

A London paper has been informed s that an ingenious Pennsylvauian has i devised?and presumably patented? f a method ot killing snakes at once t novel and effective. It eenms that in f some way he discovered tbat snakes ^ like the sweet and soothing taste of a nitro-glycerine, and will eat as much o of it is put in their natural haunts, * This painted oat the means of prepar- a ing the reptiles for destruction.

We are informed that the grave of ,his distinguished C.<rolini*n is not narked by any stone. Officers and Soldiers: In taking command of you, I think it proper that [ should introdace mysell somewhat 'ormallv to you, and indicate the policy ivhich I ii 'end to "pursue, that, at the rery outset, we may understand each >tber; or. in other words, that you nay know what I will expect and denaod of } jn, and what you may e"AP mo JCUV VI iI_IV Bat, firs1 of all, suffer me to thank rot! for th-^ confidence you have impo-cd i<> tn\ and to assure you, that if he m ?st strenuous exertions on my part ca:i avail anything, you shall not and that i: Ins neon misplaced.

I DCIUif, lUClClvJl O, UCSUUU' ui living ; my duty, itot only to you, but to my ! country, I shall demand of you tbe most impL.'-it obedienc?, and pledge myself, ih> t if not rendered s\i lifgly, ? will eufcice.it. There are,''however, two modes by which men can be governed. One is through th'! heart?the other, by tbe iron despotism of tbe military law. I jreatly prefer to govern you by the former mf.hoc?, by appeals to your sense of n; _,priety, 10 your patriotism, and to ail !:e higher and nobler instinct ox ar natures. All good men, all true patriots, will readily submit to a government so mild, so paternal; but if there are any who are so refractory that 'nese appeals caanot reach them, they must expect that the old letter of tbe law will be app.ied to them. In locking, however, upon tbe materials of which this regiment is somDOsed. T must confess that I appre bend but lit-*le difficulty in its management. Iq if? ranks, I recognize many who hold honorable positions at home, beads of families, and even ministers 5f the Gospel. Such men as these :ould enter tbi< war with no other motives than those of the purest patriotism, and from a wish to render an essential service to their country. Such men will Jcnoic their duty, and will be willing to perform it. I have told yoa, soldier?, what I will demand yon. I will now tell jou what you have a righ< to expect of me, and I must confess that I feel a deep responsibility resting apon me You have committed yourselves to my care, to my gnidance and direction. It is yonr right, to expect that I should care for you, that I should treat you with feindoess and courtesy, that I should subject you to no unnecessary hardships or exposure, and that 1 should s*p> fhaf vnnr ftnmfnrtR are ministerp.fi :o as far as c'rcumstances will permit. Bat, remember, there are certain hardships and exposures incident to the life of the so'dier, and these you must jxpect to bear like men, without a murmur. N doubt you will some:imes suffer?but this I promise you, :hat the commissary, quartermaster ind surgeon shall all do their duty, md render yon as comfortable as possible. In short, soldiers, I promse to feel for you, an1 to act loward vou as a father feels and lets towards bis children. But remember, thit he is the unkind -t and uost injudicious of all fa1 her-, who iither flitters the faults of hi* chi dren, or fails to administer a who'eso:n.* rejuke when it is necessary. While, :kerefore, the humblest soldier io uie anks can at all times g*in access to ne when he n in trouble, and will at ill times fiad in me a friend who will edress bis wrongs and sympathize with him in his sorrows, the highest md the prouiest need no* f x iect to iscape rebuke or punishment if he be juiltv of any neglect of du:\ r impropriety of conduct. I have coou-, soldiers, to ahar- ><?ur ate wi'li yon, either for weal or t\r ??oe. I iiave -come with you to win a semtnon slorv or share a common rrare. All oar hardships and exjostires I exp. c; to share. I intend to at what you oaf, sleep where yon deep, toil with you, sailer with you, 3ght with yen, and die with you, if ny country demands the sacrifice. And to yon, offhers allow tne to tdiafew words oflriendiy adtnoniion. Engage .1 as yon are in a couanon cause, wkh the sime ends io ac:omplisb, it i- your duty to act with i'?ity an i harrnonv. If you should lave wrangling or disputes amongst ^ourselves, uerer let ihem piss to tbe roldiers, for if vou do, alt disupiiae s at an end. However you may disigree in priwe, it i< your duty to appear before your men as a unit. It is i!so your dutv to render yourselves >opular with 'hem, not by any of the ow tricks of the demagogue, not by :arping at anr* finding fault with the tclion* of your brother officers; not >v attempting to pull them dnvn that rou may rise (for any such conduct vill secure for you their profound conempt); not by any laxity of disci)line or neglect of duty, but by a ligh, honorable and manly bearing; >y being alwa\ s just and truthful; by 'xercising no petty tyranny, but by >eing always p -lite and courteous, by howing by your deed's, not by your voras, luat yuu careiur iucui, luai yuu 'eel with thsm: ia short, by showing hem that to tue stiictness ofth^ perfect officer, win does his whole datv without fear, f tvor or a {lection, you ,dd the kind amenity of the psr'feet gentleman.

And now, ncrhaps I have said snough, and onght to close; but mv leart is full, ai;'d I feel thit I should idd a few word' more: for we have all intered up ju h new earcer, and are tbont to treat! upon paths whose ermioi areveiiel in the darkness of he future.

"The bugle blast of the robber band" is already ringing in our ears, and he who can do his country service skid now dallies, i< a dastard or a traitor. I have,' therelore, entered into this service as most of you have done, from dire necessity and from a sense of duty, to drive from our borders this ruthless band, who know 110 law of justice, pity or i humanity, but whose tracts have ever \ beeu marked by robbery, by desola- ( lion, aud by oiood and burnings. Sach a foe as ibis you must meet with tbe cry of victory or death, not only ring: iu^ from your ]ip3, but re-echoed from your heart of hearts.

(RAY STRUCT, NCV? YORK CITY. DIVORCE RUSH IX OKLAHOMA. From the Utucaqo Ufironicie. The rush of divorce seekers to Oklahoma has began again. At the openiug of that couutry the Legislature passed a very liberal divorce liw. and thousands of peoble from New York city and other large citiis of the East, aud even from London, rashsd to thot territory, and after a three-months' stay entered snit for divorce from an objoctionable linsband or wife. The li.ib and the poor aliko availed themselves of the liberal divorce provisions of our law to get a divorce, bat Congress two years ago knocked the business in the head by passing a law making it necessary for a residence of one yen* before divorce' suit could be filed. This law, from all indications, was passed in the interest of South Dakota, but the Legislature of South Dakota passed a law making it necessary to reside in the State one year befoie suit for divorca coald be filed, hence the rush to that State, with its cold climate, has stopped, and Oklahoma once more will be the divorce Mecca. Lawyers who formsrlv resided in Oklahomi Territory have located in New York city, and all are busily eogaged in sending people away where they can obtain a divorce eas;Jy. These lawyers have agents in all the large cities of the United States, and in London aud Paris. At one time during the divorce rush preceding the law passed by Congress making a year's residence necessary before divorce snits could be filed, there were nearly one thousand foreign divorces in the territory, and the same may occur again. ^ T-ll -J ^ r DIOOU 1 WHS } df Yes, it is index to health.
