The State Department Shocked.


Secretary Morton has annihilated one
of the traditions of the Agricultural
Department, and has encroached upon
time-honored custom in the Foreign
Office" of the Government. Some time
ago Mr.. Morton noticed one Of his
clerks copying letter in script. He
wondered why the rapid typewriter
process had been abandoned in favor
of the slow method involving the use
of the pen. He asked the clerk why he
didn't adopt the quicker way.
oh" said the clerk, that would
never do. This letter goes to the State
Department, and such correspondence
is never carried on except with the
PEN"
The predetermined secretary look
ed aghast for a moment and then gave
his orders. -
You may as well throw that pen
aside right now" he said, land, GUS
tom or no custom, in the future you
will write all letters by the machine,
whether they go to the State Depart
ment or elsewhere"
The result was, the State Department
was shocked by receiving an official
letter written in the same style that
merchant would order a stock of
goods. But the State Department has
no typewriters for official correspond
ence. The foreign officers of other gov
ernments wouldn't know what to think
if it should receive a printed communi-
cation, and it is not likely that this
Government will soon break through
the custom that Is about universal.

smilax. Large numbers were present
during the evening and were presented
to the bishop, who sat in the center in a
raised chair, by President J. J.. Bren-
nan and Vice President Robert Heating
of the club.
The Governors Foot Guard orchestra
discoursed pleasant music, and well
selected program Of solos and songs was
given by members of the club, who also
acted as ushers. Among those present

land, Detective Sergeant Reilly, Mr..

Don't Believe That Black Bass Eat Young
Plcterel.

While the big lakes still remain the
favorlte fishing resorts In New
Jersey. the smaller lakes in Sussex
county really afford the livlIest sport.
Black bass We're placed In nearly all
these smaller bodies of water a few
years ago, and as they propagate fast.
We're left alone and We're well pre-
served. They are now very abundant
and an easy prey for the expert fisher.
The only trouble with the black bass
came from the charge that they con-
sumed the young pickerel and so in
terfered with the plckerel pond. ].
Brltten Henderson,, who has recently
been appointed fish commissioner for
this county, and who is an exceedingly
clever angler, denies this statement.
He says he examined a great many
black bass, and while he found in their
stomachs perch. sunflsh and the little
sinner, he never discovered pickerel.
He does not believe the bass interfere
with the pickerel market.

SUICIDE +!

This is always one of the most SORROW
full of duties that falls to our lot to
chronicle, and especially when trouble
is the cause.
Every one is familiar with the case of
R. S. Thomas, who was confined for
several weeks in the county Jail, but a
little over week liberated.
On Decoration Day he was with the G.
A. R., but left Wednesday evening, May
Both, for Sioux City, Iowa. 1t seems
that he went no further than Topeka,
where he visited with friends and rela-
tives, and we were all surprised to see
him return on Wednesday.
He then walked out to his home on
the Smoky, stopping on the way for dim
ner at Mr.. Webb's, seemingly in the
best of spirits.
Arriving at home in the evening he
was told that he was not wanted, when
he asked to get some papers from the
bureau. He than asked for cup. After
taking something which proved after
wards to be ''rough on rats" he walked
off toward the Plank place as if to stay
all night. The family watched him
going but in a little while he returned
and told them he was dying.
He fingered until o'clock Thursday
morning when he died. Mr.. Blocksome
and the family worked over him all the
time. Temporary insanity caused by
domestic trouble is ascribed as the
reason.
1t is but just to say that Mr.. Thomas
had many friends and no enemies in the
neighborhood where he had lived for
eight years.
The remains were brought to Wa-Kee-
ney Friday afternoon and buried in the
cemetery. Funeral services were con-
Quoted under the auspices of the G..
A. r.

1t is only fair to Judge a political
party by its platform of principles or
resolutions adopted or endorsed when
in convention assembled. The recent
populist convention heartily endorsed
the actions of the present state admins
tration" which has been a disgraceful
succession of administration quarrels.
chickering's and bartering, anarchistic
utterances and reasonable actions. The
adoption of such resolution is SLAM
der upon the decency and intelligence of
Kansas and can be excused only upon
the ground of total ignorance of present
and past administrations or blind parti-
sanship. The second resolution endorses
1.-The actions OF General Coxey in his
movement for the relief of the people. +"
What "relief" has he attempted or ac-
complished except to relieve deluded
people OF their surplus cash and cold
hash? True he has needlessly violated
established laws of which he was not
ignorant and got himself talked about
for time, but what is there in all that
of which sober, industrious people
should be proud Of? There is no prac-
teal difference between the armies"
of congregated hoboes and the solitary
tramps. Neither accept work when it
is offered. Neither has any ambition
except to 60 somewhere without cost
and both live off the country traversed,
stealing what they can not beg. The
only difference lies in their power to do
wrong. If tramp steal cast off cloth
ing it is crime. If an army steal a
railroad train it is still crime and should
be SO treated. The question of private
or corporate ownership has no bearing
upon the case, and the amount of the
theft does not make stealing respectable.
1t is an enigma to us how industrious
farmers whose honesty is unquestioned
can adopt resolutions which practically
endorse the theft of corporate property
by gangs OF men who have the same
right to take their cows from their herd
or their horses from the pillow for the
relief of the people" Still the recent
convention endorsed ''the governors re-
fusal to obey the railroad attorneys re-
quest addressed to the chest admins
tration the state has ever had" to assist
in stopping theft, arrest of the law
breakers and the recovery and preserva-
ton of stolen property which was then
being forcibly taken from county to
county. We have no sympathy with
grinding monopoly or soulless corpora
lions yet real honesty is no respecter of
persons whether taken singly or in Or
ganized mobs.

The Omnicrat quotes letter from
the secretary of our congressional COM
mittee," anent recent convention held
at Phillipsburg. According to that en-
tertaining epistle the county pop con-
vention fairly overwhelmed the devoted
hamlet with surging mass of "'labor-
ing people," but we are informed that
the Republican Congressional conven-
ton was very small potatoes indeed
"Big hats and diamond pins were quite
prominent ornaments among the dele
gates" How the modest ears of the
Trego county delegation must tingle
when they read this recital of their plu-
tocratic effronty! Such indiscretion
cannot be passed lightly by! Such law
ish display of horded wealth are only
so many invitations to the impov-
erished armies" of 'wealers" (woelers)
to come upon us and loot our opulent
farmers and tradesmen. The next time
these gentlemen are sent away from
home they should 60 bareheaded, wear
sackcloth and ashes and eschew all Or
nament except the requisite number of
hedge-thOrns or fish-bones necessary to
secure their raiment. Seriously, can
any intelligent person read the nauseat-
ing stuff emanating from "our secretary"
without feeling of intense disgust?
