Bryan Bolts.
Lincoln, Neb. Sept 20—In a

the crusade in which he feels
compelled to make against the
liquor interests of the state and
nation overshadows a personal

ty years, William J. Bryan this

ed the head of the Democratic
state ticket i n Nebraska and
would not support James H.
Dahlman for governor. Mr. Bry-
an says he regrets that he is com
pelled to take the stand he does
—his first departure from politi-
cal regularity—but says he feels
it his duty to do so because of
the position taken by the Demo-
cratic nominee on the liquor
question.
The statement which is in a
way apologetic in tone, does not
indicate that Mr. Bryan will sup-
port the candidate of any other
party, but announces that he is a
pronounced advocate of county
option and the early saloon clos-
ing law, both of which he insists
are menaced by Mr. Dahlman's
candidacy.
A dispatch from Honolulu says
that doctors have succeeded in
isolating the germ of leprosy,
that they are now trying to de-
velop a serum, and that this
means ultimately the cure for the
disease. Unfortunately this is
not the first time that we have
been told we are on the eve of
the discovery of a cure for
leprosy.
We heard a young man re-
mark last week that, "The
world owes me a living." It is
hoped for that young man's good
that he'll get the notion out of
his head. It's a mistake, a grave
mistake. He never entertained
a more foolish idea nor one
which will bring him a smaller
measure of respect. The world
owes the young man nothing;
but instead he owes the world
and society an active, noble
manhood, a steady, honest ener-
gy which will enable him to as-
sociate with decent men and wo-
men in a true manliness of
character that will make his
presence and companionship
desired. The truly intelligent
activity, and this young man
should contribute to society's
happiness and welfare the grace
which comes through study, toil
and honest thought.—Ex.

the
County School Report.
County Superintendent J. W.
Beaty has completed his report
of the condition of the Denton
county common 'schools and is
ready to submit it to State Super-
intendent Bralley at Austin.
These reports are required to be
in the hands of the State Super-
indent by October 1st.
The Denton county report is an
interesting document and shows
that the schools of the county
are in good condition. The ac-
count shows the number
white and colored male and
male scholars, the number
school houses built during
year the salary paid to teachers,
the condition of the libraries, the
rank of certificates held by
teachers, and, in fact every de-
tail connected with the school
interests of the county, includ-
ing all schools except the inde-
pendent districts.
The report shows that there
are thirty-five white male teach-
ers employed, seventy-four white
females, three negro men and
four negro women, making a
total of 116 teachers in the coun-
ty who receive a total salary of
$32,368.92. There are fifty-three
sohools that employ only one
teacher. The number of school
houses built during the year ie
ten for white children and one
for negroes, all the houses being
of wood.
The number of volumes in the
c junty teachers' library is given
as sixty-four.
