everybody Can Correct Them.

One of the most famous literary men
In the United States. a gentleman who
writes habitually elegant and forceful
English. bringing to the readers counte-
nance smile or tear at will. habitual-
ly makes in conversation the most viii
famous and atrocious errors of grammar
and pronunciation 1t is because of the
influence of corrupt early associations
that he did not try to get rid of and does
not try to this day. more shame to him.
His parents undoubtedly said them pa
pers" instead of those papers" and he
does the same. If a cultivated foreigner
were to meet him and converse with him
awhile, what would he not be justified
in writing about American literary men
when he went back home?
Next summer the country will be full
of the finest specimens of humanity
from Europe, representing the culture
of the ages. come to visit the Worlds
fair Will the citizen of the grandest
country the sun ever shone upon cause
them to think we are nation of igno-
ramuses by making constantly such
slips as there amt nobody" Il didn't
see nobody" etc. instead of saying
there is nobody" 81 didn't see any
body" and l lynow nobody?' Stop u.s.
ing two negatives. Are the women with
diamonds and the man with gold
watch chain going to persistently use
them" where they should use those"
and say them cars" and them books"
instead of those cars and those
booksY
Nay, more. Shall we pose as an Eng
hsh speaking nation that habitually uses
'jist" for lust, "sich" for such. git"
for 'get" and right away" when we
mean lat onceP Shall we let these
foreigners know that there are Ameri-
cans, and plenty of them-Americans
educated in our public schools--w who
think it sounds stuck up and pedantic
to use the best language they know
therefore they drop into the vulgar idiom
and mispronunciation with which the
foreigner from Africa and from Europe
have corrupted our common lingo? For
the sake of our country and the memory
of George Washington. no! Do not let
them know it.
Therefore start in now. early in 1893
and talk English Don't say The boys
is going to school" or people says
"The boys are going to school" and
people say" Stop giving us these de-
formed, crippled monstrosities of Ian
guage.

Maj. ]. l. Barnes, United States
custom house officer at the Interna
tional Line, on the Kootenai River,
came up from his post last Tuesday
and left on Thursday for Moscow
to attend the United States court
now in session there. His business
is in connection with the prosecu-
ton of the opium smugglers whom
he arrested last fall. The Major
will probably continue his trip to
Boise before his return, taking in
the sights of the State capitol. He
was formerly one Of the most prom
inent members of the South Oak ota
Legislature and enjoys the atmo-
sphere Of legislative circles. He
will not be a stranger at Boise, how
ever, as every Republican in the
state who attended the Republican
state league convention last winter
will remember him as the able
chairman of that body.

Chicago, June 27.-Charles b. Todd
one Of the jurors in the famous anar-
chist case was seen today with refer
ence to Coy Altseld's message in
connection with the pardon of the
imprisoned men. He said in part:
Il consider this an outrage on Ameri-
can citizenship If Governor Altgeld
had given the pardon as an act of
mercy it would have been different
But for him to constitute himself judge
and jury is an outrage"
Charles II. Ludwig, another juror,
said:
ANY charge, by whomsoeyer made,
that there was anything unfair or pre-
arranged in the selection of the jury is
perfectly preposterous. l was taken
from my business in the busiest portion
of the year l did not wish to 90 and
would gladly have gotten out of sery-
ing. As to my being prejudiced, no
man could have been less so. l was

wrong people; that like many harmless
Germans, the defendants were in the
habit of sitting down and drinking
beer and talking through their hats
But after listening to the evidence at
the trial there was but one conclusion
could arrive at. | had no doubt that the
men were guilty. If l had it to 90

as l did"
Judge Garry today declined to talk
on the subject Captain Bonfeld, who

the subject and said he would prepare
