For the same cause she has not been able to

through their chief, Queen Olga. Now her OBJ.

from the fact that the International Red Cross
Society. from their Headquarters at Geneva,
have called upon all branch societies, including
the American branch, to forward help to the
Greek sufferers.
1t would not be like Miss Barton to shrink
when duty calls and in response to her per-
sonal appeals considerable sum has been col
lected in Washington, and all the churches are
making contributions. As fast as $50 have
been subscribed the sum is forwarded by tele-
graph, SO that no one can say, in excuse Of gifts
withheld, that the money will be so long in
reaching Greece that all want will be appeased,
or all the sick dead, or all the wounded gone
to their doom.
Even should hostilties never be actively re-
| sumed, there is more than the Greek women
can do to care properly for the work in hand.
And to America they are turning with all the
hope and faith of Christian hearts, believing
that America, of ell countries. will be touched
with recital of their wrongs. The Washing
ton meetings being the combined efforts of
both Protestants aud Catholics, show that their
hopes are not wholly in vain.

the soldiers of the Union and by reason of her
services to the Woman's Relief Corps, b as YER

she has enceared herself by her services in

Ringing Bros. Show.

Ringing DTOS' oIiOW'
A large number Of Hennessey peo-
pie attended the Ringing Bros. show
at Enid last Saturday and several
went to ElReno Monday to see the
show. An immense crowd was pres
ent, there being $1,000 at the show in
the afternoon and between two and
three thousand at night. The wave
modestly pat the crowd at $4,000 and
says few remained at home. This
would include every man, woman and
child in Garfield county, and one
third the intre population of King
fisher, Woods and Grant counties.
But those who were there say it was
the biggest crowd ever entertained at
Enid in one day. We have heard no
kick against Ringing Bros. from
those who were present, but all seem
to have got the worth of their money

ProsperIIY AWaIts PToIoctIon.

There are some complaints by the
doubling Thomases that the election
of M cKinley has not transported us
back at once to such prosperity as we
had in 1891 and 1899, under the Nc
Kinley law. That is about as reasoua-
Bile as to expect roses to bloom out of
doors in December because June is
coming. Because we know June is
coming, we may order rose trees but
we don't expect the roses to bloom
until the December snow is gone.
While the Wilson>Gorman bill is the
law of the land we cannot expect any
great measure Of prosperity. The
most that we can hope is that we
may be spared from further disaster.
Merchants have the same inducements
to buy abroad that they have had
from the beginning OF the law. 1t is
true that many mills which were
closed have started up, and that many
others which would have shut down
in case OF McKinley's defeat have
continued. So much substantial
good has come from the mere pros
pect of Protection in the near future.
But these mills have gone on with
work in expectation of future orders,
when Protection to American indus
tries will once more be established,
rather than to meet present demands.
Confidence has been restored, and
further disaster prevented by the ass
sufance Of the re establishment Of the
American system; but real or wide
spread prosperity cannot come until
Protection to American industries is
a reality OF the present and not a pro-
mise OF the future. Economist.

A lot of people have bobbed up in
evidence during the recent Tariff
hearings who seem to think that Re-
publicans have such short memories
that they have forgotten their pledges
of last June They argue that those
Democrats who bolted their regular
party nomination, aud took refuge
under the Mckinley umbrella, have
rights in the framing Of a Tariff
measure which Republicans should
respect. and that the last Republicans
can do is to frame a moderate" bill.
OF course this means that there is to
be as little Protection as Is consistent
with the necessity Of raising revenue
by the new measure.
