SENATOR PEFFER's Dill, restricting
the expense of congressional funerals,
is a meritorious one and ought to be-
come a law. These funeral parties as
conducted in the past have been mere
iunketing tours and the principal ex-
penses, paid for by the government,
have been for choice wines and cigars.
Congressional funerals have become
scandalous and ought to be aban-
doaed.

PERHAPS no President Of the United
States, upon a matter of national con
.cern and Importance, has ever re
.ceiyed the unanimous and cordial en-
dorsement of all sections and all po-
litical parties that has been accorded
to President Cleveland upon his mes
sage to Congress touching upon the
Venezuela boundary matter. We re-
call the memorable words of Stephen
a. Douglas in 1861 when he declared
that there could be but two parties in
the United States one in favor OF
the Union. the other in favor OF Sc
.cesSion. 1T was no longer question
Of party but one Of principle and pa
triotism. So at the present time
there can be but one party in the
United States upon this question
which rises above the domain of poIi-
tics. Every loyal patriotic citizen in
the United States is with President
Cleveland to-day. Every heart that
thrills at tie sight OF Old Glory is
with him as he strikes the note Of
true patriotism and true American
ism. 1t does rot necessarily mean
war. We don't believe that England
Will dare to 20 to war with the United
States under present conditions but
she viii be taught that her BULLDOG
ing methods viii no longer succeed
with Us. 1t will do much to inspire
other nations with that due respect
for us which has seemed for seyera
years to be.Waning.

WE have just been informed. in a
circuitous way, that Cyrus Leland will
be satisfied if he is selected as one Of
the delegates at large to the National
convention and that he be allowed to
retain his place on the National COM
mittee. We have been a tribe slow in
announcing these facts but it has not
been altogether our fault. \ news
paper should always learn these
things as early as possible and then
make them public so that other posi-
bic aspirantS may besaved the trouble
and expense Of thinking they are
candidates when they are really not
and when, in fact, it has already been
so determined by the self constituted
committee of the party, duly assem-
bled at the Copeland county hotel in
Topeka for that purpose We have
also been informed that the same
committee has already decided who
shall represent the Sixth district
in the National convention. who
shall be our candidate for Con
gross and who shall succeed Hon
X. E. Willcockson in the State
senate. When it suits the pleasure OF
this committee to make public the
names of all these candidates they
will be published and. OF course, that
will settle the matter. There may be
some who are simple enough to think
that the people out here ought to set
tie these things fer themselves, but
they will be sat down upon and soon
discover their error. This district
was, doubtless. duly represented III
the aforesaid committee meeting at
the Copeland and our representatives
present kindly suggested who we
should have for the ensuing year, and
thus transferred a grave responsible
ty from the voters, which will doubt
less be appreciated and duly ratified

THE Mail and Breeze tried to tax
our credulity last week by publishing
a picture, purporting to be a likeness
of William Baker. our congressman
from mot for this district. If the boys
had only suggested to the artist that
cur William had one distinguishing
characteristic which could not be
omitted, and had distended his right
jaw to indicate a huge Quid Of to-
bacco, slowed therein as a reserve
fund. and had then labelled the job,
we might have passed AS it is we
repudiate the whole business and adj
wise William that he has a good cause
Of action against the publishers for a
libel suit.
DIR. J. G. MINxEY. Dr. NJ r.
/ Mitchell and Dr. G. S. McClintock,
directors Of the Topeka Medical col
lege. have been arrested, charged with
having received for dissecting the
body OF Mrs. Van Fleet and others.
The citizens of Topeka seem deter
mined to push legal prosecution until
the guilty parties are discovered and
punished and public sentiment all
over the state is with them in their
efforts to punish the perpetrators OF
these ghoulish deeds. We have al
ways been opposed to mob law but are
almost persuaded that an exception
might be made in this instance WheG
it is certain that the guilty ones have
been apprehended.

Songs They Sing.

Many insects make noise Of some
sort. at least most Of them do. And as
the noise is Of different kind In differ
ent animals, so it is produced in differ
ent ways. Scarcely any two insects
make their music in the same manner.
There is the little katydid. You all
know the katydid, of course. 1t is in
color light green, its wings are Eauzy
and beautiful. Just where the wing
of the katydid joins the body there is
Il thick ridge, and another ridge cor
responding to it on the wings. On these
ridges is stretched a thin out strong
skin. which makes sort Of drum
head. 1t is the rubbing together Of
these two ridges or drum-heads which
makes the queer noise we hear from
the katydid. 1t is loud and distinct,
but not very musical, and the next
time we hear the sound katy did,
Katy didn't you may know that this
katydid is rubbing the ridges Of her
body together and perhaps enjoying
doing it. The moment it is dark she
and all her friends begin. Perhaps
some of them rest sometimes, but If
they do there are plenty more to take
up the music.
Then there is the bee The bees hum
comes from under his wings, too, but
is produced in a different way. 1t is
the air drawing in and out Of the air
tubes In the bees quick flight which
makes the humming. The faster a
bee flies the louder he huns. Darling
back and forth. he huns busily, be-
cause he can't help it, until presently
he lights on a flower or even a fence.
and all at once he is still again.

British Worlds Fair Commissioner Lee.
turing "n the State In England.
In 1893 Henry w. Pearson of Brming-
ham, who was one of the English commits
sioners to the Worlds Fair, made an ex-
tensive visit to South Dakota. While here
he secured large number of South Dako-
ia views and is now exhibiting them to
English audiences in all illustrated lee
thre.
Mr.. Pearson has been in correspondence
with the Governors Office ever since his
Dakota visit, securing data for his lecture
The Office has been giving him pointers
and the Governor has just received a letter
from Mr.. Pearson in which he gives few
extracts from his lecture, and statement
OF the kind of people he lcctured to.
His first lecture was delivered in Liv-
erpool and the following is what he says
of it:
''There are upwards of 400 artisans and
shopkeepers present, including fair pro-
portion of ladies. l gave pictures of a
Dakota corn field and ranch, also the
reaping and threshing of grain on large
farm, in addition to views of an artesian
we'll, Pierre, Huron, Redfield, WATERFOWL,
Aberdeen, Mitchell, Bookings, Agricul-
tural College, the State Fair, and then
went into the IndisN reservation and de-
scribed, with the aid of pictures, the In

were making in his behalf and for his
good. The people here have never had the

APPLES BETTER THAN WHEAT.
The State of Oregon Rapidly Rolling
Up Wealth with Fruit.

The State of Oregon Rapidly Rolling
Up Wealth with Fruit.
That it will not do to put all Of ones
eggs in one basket has been thoroughly
demonstrated by the berry crop this
season, says the Hood River (Oresonl
Glacier. With thousands of crates ripe
the ability to reach a market is. with
out any fault of ours, suddenly take
away. The strawberry crop has bee
the principal one of this section, an.
while it will not only hold Its present
yield but will double and treble it. It
will in year or two become Of second
airy Importance. Prunes, peaches, cher
ries, and small fruits generally are a
necessity to the fruit-grower because
they furnish him with money early in
the seasonal well as early in his bust
ness. They are means to an end. fur
nishing money to support the family
and to improve the farms. They all
bear one fatal objection as crop to be
relied on and that 1t Is absolute neces-
sity of finding q market for them as
soon as they are ripe. This may not he
true of the prune, but for 1t the same
condition exists-that it must be taken
care of ut once when ripe. The fruit Of
Hood River, the one that is 10 make her
famous as we'll as prosperous. is the
winter apple. That can be kept. 1t
can be gathered leisurely, once in bear
ing, bring better and steadier returns,
and at the very least outlay. John
Sweeny's orchard last year, its first year
Of bearing, produced more net money
than would or could have been deriv-
ed from the same area Of land sown TO
wheat in thirty-six years. This year
1t should yield fifty times as much, next
year seventy times rs much, and then
for twenty years 100 times as much. In
other words, one acres of winter apples
Is worth more, year in and year out,
than 100 acres Of wheat. Six acres Of
good orchard viii; yield a larger net
yield than section of wheat land. Null
tiply the acres in Hood River Valley by
100. and some idea of the wealth that
it will eventually produce may be gain
ed. In other words, every section in
fruit will produce cash value equal to
three townships Of wheat. The winter
apple is going to accomplish this result
And the next few years as the young
orchards come into bearing will prove
the truth of this assertion, though 1t
now seems q wild one. We can but re-
iterate our former words: "Plant apple
trees; twenty acres If you can one tree
If that is your limit but plant at every
opportunity" When this valley is an
orchard, from the hills to the summit
east of us and from the river back for
twenty miles, then only will it have at.
tained its full development.
