Girls, don't use slang. When we hear a
girl say she was "rattled" instead of embar-
raised, that her new hat is 'just dandy" or
that her recent acquaintance is a new mash, I"
we decide that she is either ignorant or vul-
gar-though it would perhaps be more char
table to consider her needless only. But it
is better to be little bit prim, if there is no
medium we doubt whether we should use
slang words at all, if we fully knew their or

1t was good answer that Judge
Weber gave Gov. Merriam, when
asked his opinion on the Holden case.
1t was to the effect that he had nothing
to say. He had finished his part of the
case, and it was now left to the cover
nor and not to the man, who did the
sentencing. The governor had all the
evidence in his hands as well as the
power to grant mercy. 1t was foolish
for him to ask, any body but himself as
to what should be done.

From the Bahama Islands comes the
sad news Of the death of Hon. E. M.
Wilson, of Minneapolis. Visiting in that
southern cline with his wife and Will
son, of Winona, he fell victim to mala-
rial fever and passed away on the 10th.
As an honored citizen, the announce
ment of his death will come with feel
ing OF regret to all and with sadness to
many. He was well known through
out the state, principally through his
candidacy for governor against Merri-
am, at which time he conducted clean
and honest campaign. And as he was
in that political race, so he was in ev-
erything else. AS a lawyer, prominent
and honorable; as a citizen, respected;
as man, noble and high-minded.

The tariff bill, as now completed,
has been reported to the house. Just
before offering it, a few changes were
made which will have the effect to some
extent of taking away the breath Of De-
mocratic and low tariff cranks. Sugar
is placed on the free list, while a boun.
ty OF two cents direct from the treasury
is placed on the domestic article. Hides
are also free, and the duty on manu-
featured boots and shoes, to satisfy the
people and not the manufacturers. is
cut one-third. The tariff on Irvine is
reduced over one half, whereas farm
products are afforded liberal protec-
ton. The bill is clearly a western mea-
sure and western members are tickled
over the changes brought about in the
interests of their constituents. The east
and south are the districts that will
suffer, while the west receives the bene-
tits. If it passes, as it likely will.
considering that the western members
were strong enough to secure these con-
cesslons from the committee, the repub.
leans OF the present congress will have
done well in acting up to the party's
pledges and promises. They will de-
serve well at the hands of the country.

In discussing the Bennett law issue in
Wisconsin, the St. Paul Dispatch brings
the following: On the question as to
whether the education of children of the
public schools should be conducted in
the English language there cannot, from
the American point Of view, be no two
opinions. English is the language of
the American people, and it will SO re.
main long after the generation which
thinks otherwise shall have passed
away. The American people-neither
Protestants nor Catholics, Germans.
Scandinavians, Bohemians or French
support those schools, and they should
control in all matters of this character.
1t is right that citizens of foreign ma
tionalities should, among themselves,
seek to maintain the traditions and
memories Of their native lands; but it is
not right, and should not be tolerated.
that they shall educate their children at
the public expense, or otherwise, as if
those children were destined to spend
their lives in the countries from which
their respective parents came. It will
require but a generation or two before
the descendants of those who are stand
ing out in opposition to this particular
principle will have become thoroughly
Americanized and the present conten.
ton present itself to their minds as
something wholly beyond understand
| ing.
The American is an English-speaking
race. Children born on this soil are
Americans, and not Europeans. Every
educational system in the country, pri-
vate or public, should be directed
toward training them to become good
Americans. Any such system that
adopts different plan or seeks to sub.
ordinate the American principle to The
foreign one is dangerous and intolerable.
and the POLITICAL party which associates
its prospects of success with it should
be beaten. The republican party Of
Wisconsin can better afford to suffer re-
peated defeat than swerYe one inch
from the maintenance Of such princi-
pie. II must win ultimately if every.
church on the continent were ranged on
the other side. America for Americans
is sound and upright principle, no
matter how badly abused it may have
| been in former political contests.

situation Increasing Seriously In the steel
Bayou Country-Twelve CoIored Women
and Children Drowned From a Raft.
VIcKsBURG, April 7.-Nineteen ne.
groes, the survivors Of large party Of
refugees which attempted to escape from
the overflow down Bogue Bayou on
raft, arrived here on the steamer Hill
City. They report that twelve women
and children were drowned when the
current lashed their crazy vessel against
a tree, and that they escaped with ex-
treme difficulty. This is the most
tragic event of the flood. The situation
is growing daily more serious in the
Steel Bayou country. Earl Miller, a
prominent planter, and brother of Attor.
ney-General Miller, arrived from there
yesterday by steamer Evergreen, with
his family and stock. The Miller plant
alton, though very high. has gone under.
The Evergreen reports the water along
the bayou still rising. Cattle and hogs
are offered for sale by the people at a
song. Much more stock must yet be
brought out or allowed to drown. A
steamer leaves Tuesday for Spnflower,
and that planters will desire to remove
their stock is certain. The steamer
Oceola arrived last evening from
tho Bends. Her officers report that the
overflow is beginning TO empty into the
Mississippi through the Eagle Lake,
and predict great increase in pressure
all along the Louisiana front from that
point southwark for the next two weeks
The Oceola begins an inspection of the
leYees from Delta, La, northwest to-.
day, and will be joined by President
Maxwell, and probably Assistant En-
gineer Thompson, There is the most
unmistakable distress along Steel
Bayou, and it will be cruelty to deny It.
The Evergreen returns there to-day, and
the Bousam, with Captain w. d. Pugh
and NJ. W. Smith on board, will
follow Tuesday or Wednesday. They
will bring out all people who
are suffering or in danger Barges
can not be taken there, and only the
smallest boats are suitable for relief
work. Captain Pugh will relieve the
distressed, whether they have money or
not to pay their fare: kilograms from
Sharkey, Tallahatchie river, report a
decline of eighteen inches. Captain
John i. Mattingly, who has just re.
tured from Austin break, says it can

country, as its current is too feeble.
