Greek believed that every Greek was
free, because he was a Greek and that
all others were barbarians and slaves.
We believe that every man is free be-
cause he is man. Our form of gov
eminent, corresponding to this theory
OF man, is government of the people.
Thus our theory of life and our form Of
government are not only the best at
tainable but the highest of which the
human mind can conceive. The
thought of democracy is one of Gods
thoughts. But democracy presup-
poses the intelligence and patriotism
OF all its members and these are
secured through the common school.
In its march of six thousand years
the race has encircled the globe and
entered this its last promised land, con-
tanning every condition of national
greatness and perpetuity. Every ma
ton has sent hither it's representatives.
Every nation has poured into this
country the product of it's heart and
brain. These heterogeneous elements
are to be formed into homogeneous
people in the common school by the
common school teacher. Fellow-teach-
ers, may we do our work so we'll that
there shall exist on this continent for
all time to come the state of which
Plato dreamed, which the prophets of
old saw and which Jesus called ssthe
kingdom of God.'' " .ies

from height Of 5000 feet into an inlet

deep, and before anyone could reach
him he was drowned. The balloon it
self fell in the main channel of the rivef

was carried down the stream.
This was Mr.. Hobe's second ascension,

position on the trapeze, which he held
until it dashed down into the water
close to Merrimac island and about a

The Aged English Statesman Suffers from
Severe Chill.
LONDON, Aug. 1.-Great consterna-
ton has been caused in the Liberal
ranks by the news of Mr.. Gladstone's
illness, which, it is feared, is serious.
When Mr.. Gladstone arrived in London
he looked well and hearty, and his
friends felt assured that he would be
able to take with firm hand the reins
of government. When it became known
that Mr.. Gladstone was suffering from
chill. There was general surprise and
anxiety, and the anxiety was increased
when it became known that visitors
would not be received. Various stories
are afoat as to the origin of his illness.
it is stated that while talking
with some friends he staggered and
nearly tainted. He was at once re-
moved to lounge, and soon afterward
retired to rest. In the morning his con-
dition had not improved and he showed
symptoms of serious chill. At noon it
was reported that Mr.. Gladstone was
still in bed. There is general impress
sion that he is more seriously i'll than the
public have been permitted to know.
Although the Liberals are evidently ex-
cited and apprehensive, some Of them
are making an effort to minimize the
importance of the leaders illness.

to his supporters stating that the debate

wisconsin's Apportionment Law Attacked
by Republicans.
MADISON, Wis, Aug. 1.-The Repub.
ican attack upon the apportionment
law enacted at the special session of the
legislature was made this morning. The
petition, signed by John G. Spooner,
George w. Bird, G. E. Estabrook and
George Green, as attorneys, was heard
by the attorney general. The applica-
ton to the attorney general is for him to
move the supreme court Aug. 9, the first
day of the August term, for leave tc
bring suit in that court in the name OF
the attorney general against the secre.
tary of state to enjoin him from putting
the new apportionment law into effect.
1t is sought to enjoin the secretary Of
state in the contemplated raid to prevent
the notice of the general election includ-
ing the new districts as created by the
new law. The second respect in which
it is sought to restrain the secretary OF
state is to forbid him filing nomination
papers received from legislative districts
greater than one county as created by
the new law. The third is to restrain
him from certifying to the county clerks

Mitchell to be insane and recommending
for the peace of the state that she be

The judges charge was on able docu-
ment. He dwelt on expert testimony
and mildly excoriated the physicians
who, he said, could prove anyone to be
insane when they started in for that pur-
pose. When the verdict was announced
George Mitchell, father Of the defendant,

smiled. A low moan was heard in the
rear of the court room. 1t was 10

Mitchell will be taken to Bolivar next

sent I'm for Sixty Days

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Sept. s.-One of the
most sensational incidents in the annals
of crime in Minnesota occurred this
afternoon before Judge Twohy in the
municipal court of St. Paul. 1t was the
conviction and sentence of leading
citizen of St. Paul, worth $500, 900, to
serve sixty days in the work house,
without the option of escaping by
paying fine. A few weeks ago Simeon
J. Ahern, owner of large tracts of real
estate here and financial agent tor sev-
eral Eastern firms, swore in suit in
court that he had not acted as witness
to an instrument which MONTE Helm
had signed as notary public. lmme,
diately after the trial Mr.: Helm had
Mr.. Aher arrested for criminal libel.
The case came up before Judge lWohy
this afternoon, and the evidence was SO
overwhelming against the capitalist that
the court ordered him sent to the work
house for sixty days.
