GO AHEAD. MIR. GRESHAM.

1t seems that the Secretary of State
can not please the enemies of the ad-
ministratiOn, no matter what course
he may take. Heretofore they have
censured him severely for his want of
backbone in dealing with foreign ma
lions and now he is criticised by many
of the Republican newspapers for his
promptness of action and his unequi-
vocal demand for redress in the ALI
anca affair where a Spanish warship
fired on an American vessel carrying
the stars and stripes. The American
people will however uphold Mr. Ores
ham in his manly course even if
foreign war should be the result
Spain has never had the respect for
our flag that she has had for that of
Great Britain and it is quite time she
was taught lesson.
If the United States government
should lend the slightest sanction to
filibustering Cuba would not remain

try is considered the creation and the
mouthpiece of the people and should
reflect their sentiment 1t is quite
time that our flag should receive more
respect from the nations of the earth
than has hitherto been accorded it,
1t should be well understood that wher-
ever the waves of the ocean roll the
ship which floats the stars and stripes
is part and parcel of the great Ameri-
can republic, just as much as one of
her seaports, and that firing ON that
flag is an insult calling for prompt
and ample redress to this country 1t
is true that our navy does not figure
so largely on paper as that of some
other nations, but our resources are
greater than those of any other coun-
try in existence, and the hearts of our
countrymen are as brave and as proud
as ever existed in any people.
We are so great that we can afford
to practice forbearance toward weak
nations, but they should not
take advantage of our forbearance
to treat us with insult. 1t should
be our policy to cultivate peace and
honest friendship with all nations
but at the same time we should exact
respectful treatment from them.
In the days of our national infancy
we sent warships to chastise the half
civilized tribes of Mort Africa for their
ill-treatment of our citizens and we
taught them lesson they have never
forgotten. Shall it be said that in

The Hon. w. 7. Harris. United States Com
missioner of Education, is the author of a
suggestive paper, in the April LIarper's Maga-
@ine on "Recent Progress in the Public
Schools" in which he shows the superiority
of the graded system over the old plan of in
dividual instruction. The principal point of
superiority Mr.. Harris finds to be the stimulus
of rivalry among members of class and the
better grasp of subject that comes from see
ing how it appeals to other minds.

Iii Hung Chang, the Chinese peace
envoy to Japan, was shot in the face
last Sunday by Il young japanese as
he was returning from IL conference to
his lodgings Fortunately the wound
was but slight. The affair caused
much excitement and may check for
time the progress of the peace nego-
tiations The affair is regarded as a
piece of misguided patriotism, similar
to the shooting of Lincoln by Booth.

COUNTY RO.iDS.

The March winds which have blown
SO briskly for the past week have
dried the roads up pretty well, and,
except where they We're badly cut up
by heavy teams, they may now be
said to be fairly good. AS long as we
have dirt roads we must expect them
to be muddy in the spring, and it is
hard to see how we can have stone
roads at present. The editor of the
Philadelphia Times must have taken
drive in the country recently for he
publishes the following feeling re-
marks OH the subject:
This is the season in which the farm
er discovers no roads in his section fit
to travel on, and realizes also that the
supervisors chosen the year before are
iusta us bad as the roads. Country high
WAYS are never worse than in the
spring. Between frost and moisture
the mixture on the roadbed is either
mud or mortar and this must dry away
as the sun finds time to do the work
of the supervisors, as there usually is
no drainage One of the first effects
\ is to quarantine the country against
| the town. as few farmers will risk
| breaking that sort of blockade. 1t
| means ruin for wagons, perhaps the
| loss of the team and in some instances
| death or injury to the farmer.
| And yet farm holders, tenants and
land holders are content that things
| shall continue in this strain. They
| insist on the vicious rule OF working
| out taxes; they persist i'll shovellng
| and scrapine earth and stuff from the
| sides of the road into the middle of the
roadbed when the weather is clear,
only to see it washed back again by
storm and flood, and they stand OPP
posed to any system of public road i'm
provement to be paid for out OF their
own pockets. in face of the fact that
it is Just that sort of Improvement that
provides the best kind of insurance to
stock and property.
| Corduroy roads were necessary IN
the pioneer period. No other sort
would do. But these are not the days
of the wilderness and first settlements.
The numbering Conestoga turnpike
wagons ceased to rumble half cen
turv ago. The lighter substitutes,
however, run on nearly the same old
roads. Reform in road building must
be, from the nature of the subject,
gradual, but there must be beginnings.
When the farmers realize this, the end
to bad roads will also begin.

CHURCH BULLFIGHTS
ORIGINAL PLAN OF COWBOYS TO AIL
RELIGION.

VIII Differ From the stereotyped spnnisL
FIghts-south Dakota the Scene of the
Novelty-Peopie Excited and n Success
Anticipated.
A bull fight is not often given to raist
money for a religious purpose, but such
is the plan which the residents of Zie
bach, Nowlin and Sterling counties, il
South Dakota, have now in contempla
tion. The fight itself will resemble lit
tie the stereotyped affair to which the
Spanish American states and the parent
country in Europe are accustomed. The
idea originated with the cowboys on the
Wernnch ranch, in Ziebach county, on
the east bank Of the Cheyenne river, and
from all indications the entertainment
will be great success.
For some time the Methodists of tht
counties i'll question have been thinking
of establishing chuch at a central
point where all the residents Of the dis.
trict can reach it. The country is thinly
populated, not TO mention the fact that
only a small proportion of such pupula.
tion as there is takes the slightest inter.
est in religious matters, and the diff.
Guilty of raising the necessary funds was
for months an insurmountable obstacle
in the way Of the establishment of the
house of worship.
The Wernich cowboys were not among
those who felt the need of religious in
struction, but they were deeply interest.
ed when the daughter of a neighboring
rancher suggested the bull fight as an
excellent plan for raising money. With
in week from the time the suggestion
was made the outlines Of the fight had
been roughly sketched, and volunteers
were eagerly offering themselves for
part i'll the festivities.
Several lively young steers were Sc
lected to play the star roles and score
of cowboys to fill the secondary parts.
The religious element would not hear to
the torture of the animals, and il was
accordingly arranged that the fighters
should be G'med only with their heavy
quirts or whips Of bair and be permitted
to resort to the use of firearms only in
case of absolute necessity. As the men
will all be mounted it is unlikely that
any such occasion will arise, and the
steers will probably enjoy the perform
ance quite as much as the cowboys
When an animal has been in the ring
for sufficient length Of time, it will
simply be lassoed and dragged aside and
another brought in to take its place.
The exact date Of the fight has not yet
been fixed. It will probably be some
time in January, weather permitting,
or a feIv Hypple 1oter i'm case spvere cold
should make the exhibition impossible
during that month, A large attendance
is promised from the towns in the vi
cinity, and considerable sum will un-
doubtedly be raised for an early start
upon the new church. - New York

PLANS FOR A NEW PARTY.
The National Council of Patriotic OrganI-
cations In Sessions.

The National Council of Patriotic Organl-
cations In Sessions.
The National Council of Patriotic Or
CARNATIONS has been in annual session
in Washington. Delegates from all the
prominent Patriotic orders were present,
representing over 5000. 600 members.
A platform Of principles was formulat-
ed as follows: Demanding that strin-
gent laws be enacted by congress to re-
strict immigration that no public funds
be appropriated for any sectarian pur-
poses, and indorsing the proposed six
teenth amendment to the constitution
of the United States; that no state shall
grant the right Of suffrage to any per-
son not a citizen of the United States !
demanding that all property, pualic
property alone excepted, be subject to
equal taxation.
A committee was appointed TO attend
the national conventions Of the political
parties for the purpose Of inducing them
to incorporate these principles into their
platforms, and, in the event that none Of
the political parties recognizes these
principles, then steps will be taken to
form an American party. The National
Council is working 10 secure unity of
political action by the membership of all
Patriotic orders. Washington Post.

NEW SORT OF CRANK.
He Seems to Find Satisfaction In Snatch
ing OFF Buttons.

He Seems to Find Satisfaction In Snatch
ing of Buttons.
A new crank has made his appearance
in New York in the person of Antonio
Volpe, an Italian, / 8 years old. He is
what may be called "a button snatcher I"
Policeman Klan saw him in the crowd
around dry goods store window.
He lodged in and out among the
women so often that the policeman
thought he was a pickpocket He
watched him closely, hoping to catch
him in the act. He finally noticed that
he only brushed against the women who
wore large buttons on their coats. To
his surprise he saw that all Of these
women had lost at least one button.
Presently he caught the young Italian
in the act Of pulling one of the buttons
from a woman S coat and arrested him.
On the way to the station house the
prisoner threw a handful Of large but
tons into the street. When he was
searched at the station, 40 other buttons
were found in his pockets.
