An essay on the present war between

and printed in the Index, is as follows:
This war is prty sirius, and this is why
it is, beekas at first you no the Spanish
Minister swor at Mukinerly and did
not apOlugis for such long time. And
the next sirius thing VS. the Maen, and

have beegun the war and many brave
comrades will dide for ther country.
Prhaps ther will not bee a man in the
town, and meny muther will mourn
for her husbands Ded lay they on the
batlf1d, and ther stand ther muthers
weeping for ther huzbans. They take

to the graves. And meny Spanish ships
will singk, and feew American ships

Coming Through the Rye"


It is an unfortunate fact that in most
of the copies Of this song, so attractive
from it's naivette, Rye is spelled with a
small r. as If the grain rye were meant
and not the burn or rivulet Rye, which
is small stream in the northwest dis
trict of Cunningham, In Ayrshire. In
this way the whole point of the story,
as told in the song, is lost and this
beautiful lyric is degraded from por-
trayal of a romantic episode to an ac-
count OF mere commonplace kissing
match. The Rye is a small burn or
stream which in many places is quite
shallow. and is crossed by the familiar
device Of stepping stones. These step
ping stones do not leave room for two
persons coming from opposite direc-
tiOns to pass each other without taking
hold of each others hands. When a
young man, on arriving at the edge OF
the burn, sees another traveller of the
same sex, or lady with whom he Is not
acquainted. or for whom he does not
care much. approaching, he waits un-
til the path is clear But if the passen-
ger should be an attractive lassie of his
acquaintance he at once begins to cross

hand so as not to lose their balance. In

as learned as man. The idea of
woman's equality may be said to be or
ganic there. That is why Miss Reel is
so widely admired and why she has
SO much influence That fact, too, ex-
plains why the people OF Wyoming
have seriously considered Miss Reel for
governor. Two years ago she had
grand boom for nomination for COVER
nor of Wyoming That is to say, her
friends then laid plans for her nomi-
nation during the approaching fall. In
1896 Miss Reel was ineligib'> for the
position of governor of Wyoming. The
governor must be at least thirty, and at
that time Miss Reel was only twenty
nine She has now the age Qualiflca-
ton and her friends believe she has all
the other qualifications as we'll. But
Miss Reel herself takes a sensible view
of the matter. She disclaims the ablll-
ty to as ably manage the affairs Of
state as the best man that wyoming
can find. She says she does not desire
to be the governor. According to her,
the women of Wyoming, who poll half
the vote of the state. by the way, will
be satisfied with one of the six state
offices for some time to come. That
is the office of state superintendent or
education. The aim thus far in Wyo-
ming has been to place the educational
/ affairs of the state as much as possible
| in the hands of women. woman is at
the head of each of the county systems
! and almost all the school principals are
women. Miss Reel says that Wyoming
women will develop into state affairs
slowly or rapidly, but that they have
no desire to force the growth.
Miss Reel prepared herses for the
profession of an educator in the schools
of Chicago, of ST. Louis and Of Boston.
She did no little work in that line in
Chicago before going west to grow up
with the country. She began her ca
reer ir Cheyenne as teacher in one
of the public schools there. and her
talent brought her rapidly to the top.
She was promoted first to be superin-
tendent of instruction for Laramie
county-the most important underposi-
ton of it's kind in the state. For four
wears she filled that position admirably
Then she was made state superintend-
ent, and now she is given the highly
important post of superintendent of In
dian schools. In her capacity as super
intendent of instruction for Wyoming
Miss Reel has held the ex officio posi-
tion of secretary of the state board of
charities. The duties of this board are
to conserve the state charitable and
nenal institutions. She has also served

voter and a woman reformer to Whlch

lights to point. Pretty. gentle, eou-
Gated, broad minded, progressive, she
is possessed Of healthy egotlsm that

ers. The new Indian school superln-

this important government post. She
is an adept educator whose ideals are
as broad as the broadest. She is
Wyoming woman. and is therefore an
advocate of equal suffrage. She is a
practical and theoretical politician who
has been superintendent of instruction
in her own state.
This enterprising and progressive
woman is just thirty-one years old. She
has lived in Wyoming nearly twelve
years, and her influence has been felt
in the politics of the state. 1t must be
remem bered that woman suffrage is no
