{ Our Col. Frank.

The caption to this article relates tt
the tree so named by the senior class O.
1895 of the high school, planted by
them on Arbor day on the high schoo
grounds.
The queen now reigns, the queen Of spring,
And with the blush of May,
She greets us with her sweetest smiles
On this her natal day
The flowers she brings and all the trees,
For these her jewels fair
Have lain within the casket here
Beneath the earth so bare
Where all the foes of bright May time,
The winters snow and sleet,
Could never harm the precious gems
In their seclusion sweet.
But when the foes have disappeared,
When they have ceased their reign,
She takes from out the jewel case
The little gems again
And in their beauty bright and fair,
She with a loving hand,
Will freely strew the precious gems
Ger all our lovely land.
And thou, dear friends of seniors year,
On this the natal day,
Doth plant a gem, doth planta tree
For our loved queen of May.
And with thine heart, as well as hand,
Thou placeth here the tree,
Though we'll thou know st the lovely shades
May never be for thee:
And that so soon may strangers stand
Where thou art standing now,
The breezes that about thee play,
May kiss strangers brow.
For when out on the paths of life
Thou seekest far to roam,
Thou 1t leave the dear old school room scenes
Thou 1t leave thy childhood's home.
But when thou TT far so far away,
We know thou 1t think again
OF school day hours and of this tree
Thou st planted not in vain.
For when the years have come and gone
This tree, in grand array,
Will tell the tale to other ones
OF this bright Arbor day,
Its leaves will cast lovely shade,
Its branches far Will spread
An honor to our Colonel Frank,
An honor to our dead.
Then wish long life to tn Colonel Frank
Wherever thou may'St be,
Oh wish great strength and beauty too,
To this our Seniors tree.

THE question of the selection of the
successor to the late Chairman Thorn
is one that could be satisfactorily set
tied to the credit of the republican party
by the selection of Senator E. g. Tim
me. Mr.. Timme has an extensive ac-
quaintance throughout the state as well
as the confidence of his party, and
would make successful organizer.
The next campaign in this state will
be a spirited one and manager is
wanted who will be alive to the stu
alton. He can certainly be found in
the person of E. G.. Timme.

IF the trade indications all over the
country can be relied upon there is no
doubt whatever but that there is a
general improvement in business. The
stock market shows that the stiffening
in prices are generally permanent and
the bears are now and apt to remain on
the wrong side of the market. There
is a growing feeling of confidence in
the future and this goes very far to-
wards bettermento of trade. With great
er confidence in the future there will
be increased buying of goods, the result
of which cannot fail but bring better
prices. Higher prices for goods will
naturally bring higher wages and in
creased earning capacity of the wage
Garner will soon cause a greater con-
sumption of goods. For the past two
years, there has been an under con-
sumption of goods instead of an over
production and it is this flooding of the
market with goods, that has broken
down prices and with it the wages of
the wage Garner. Increased demand
for goods will tend to check the forcing
process that has operated to the disad-
vantage of the producer and everybody
employed by him. When business re-
sumes its normal condition and good
are no longer forced on the market
there will be no difficulty about wages.
It is the normal business condition to-s
wards which business is now shaping
itself.

the New York World: He lives in
Chicago, and he gave his last dollar to
the printer for the work on this book.
He is a small, nervous man, ~ years
old. He was born in Virginia and was
educated for the law. he practiced for
while in Cleveland, Ohio, where he
was a partner of Attorney General
Brown. This was in 1878. He mar
ried into the Mccormick family of
reaper fame, and was for a time the at
torney and adiuster for the company.
He went west and tried ranching and
silver prospecting He made money,
which he invested in property. The
last panic cleaned Mr. Harvey out. He
managed to get Il few thousand dollars
from the wreck, and went to Chicago
with two convictions. One was that
silver was the only currency medium,
and that all national bank officials are
conspirators against the veal of the
people. Mr. Harvey started to publish
a weekly paper in the autumn of 1898.
He called it Coin 1t lasted two
Then came his first work on

IN 1873, when silver {" was stricken
down." there was none to speak of in
the country, but now we have about
$50, 100000. If silver had been strick

great deal. France, which is so much
envied by the silver men, has only

WITH all due respect to the positions
held by Mr.. Cleveland and Mr. Ores
ham-positions which have been hon.
ored by, and which have honored
long line of patriots from George Wash
ington to Benjamin Harrison, and from
Thomas Jefferson to James G. Blaine
there is only one word that fttingly
characterizes the policy of this admin
istration in dealing with the dispute be-
tween Great Britain and Nicaragua,
which has now reached the point at
which Great Britain has given the
world a practical demonstration OF it's
belief that "might makes right" by
the occupancy of the principal port OF
entry of Nicaragua by an armed force,
and that word is double-dealing. Her
bert Spencer said: "The affairs OF the
universe are not carried on after a sys
TEN of benign double-dealing," but
Spencer wrote before Mr.. Cleveland
was president or Mr.. Gresham secretary
of state. 1t is as certain as anything
not officially promulgated can be, that
the administration has had an under
standing with Great Britain, which m
Guided the acceptance by this govern
ment of the British construction of the
meaning, or rather lack of meaning OF
n
the Monroe doctrine, which friends OF
the administration have been saying
for weeks past was to be applied to
Great Britain's treatment of Nicaragua,
pointing out the fact that there was a
strong fleet of q. S. vessels in South
Atlantic waters for the express purpose
of compelling Great Britain to respect
that doctrine. Now, the fact has
leaked out that the administration,
probably fearing that the patriotism OF
Admiral Meade would be stronger than
his orders, took good pains to have
that fleet away from Nicaraguan wa
ters when British sailors performed the
brave feat Of occupying the territory OF
a helpless and defenceless country,
which had made the mistake OF eX-
pecting that the United States would
sec that it was fairly treated The
Nicaraguan minister to the United
States is so placed that he cannot ev-
press his opinion, but it is an open Sc
cret that he was led to believe up to
the last minute that this country would
prevent Great Britain carrying out its
threat of occupying Corinto, and that
he in turn had caused his government
to indulge in the same belief. Had it
not been for that belief there never
would have been any controversy.
Nicaragua would have. agreed to the
demands of Great Britain as soon as
they were made, knowing that without
the protection of the United States she
would sooner or later have to do so.
Owing to the impenetTable mystery
which surrounds everything done by
the department of state, it cannot be
positively stated just what the nature
of the agreement with Great Britain is,
but enough is known to cause every
patriotic American to wish that the
whole discreditable affair could be
blotted out the history of the United
States. !

CAUGHT ON A ROLLER.
James Mcdonald Is Probably Fatally In

jured.
At about 6 o'clock Monday evening
while James Mcdonald was at work in
the brass mill on roller in the polish
ing department his left arm got caught
and he was drawn into the machinery,
making three turns of the roller. 1t is
not known exactly how he got caught.
No one saw it until the damage had been
done. When he was picked up it was
found that there was compound frac-
ture of the left forearm, one fracture of
the humorous, a bad cash had been cut
in the chin. three or four ribs had been
broken and the flesh of theleft side and
face had been terribly bruised and lac
Grated.
Mcdonald was so badly broken and
bruised that it is not believed tina : he
can live. He is a single man Of about
80 years of age, and boarded at Mrs.
Mahoney's near the mill.
This afternoon Mr. Mcdonald was
resting as easily as, under the circum-
stances, he could be expected to, but
he is very low. DR.. Andre is attending
him.
