MISS Helen Gould, daughter of the
late Jay Gould, has shown herself to
be among the most patriotic of wealthy
American women. At the opening OF
the recent war Miss Gould donated
100000 to the war department for the
purpose of defrsying the expenses of
the same, and last week she gave
SIS, 900 to the Women's War Relief
Association for the purpose of purchas-
ing supplies for the different camps.
Miss Gould has not only given these
magnificent donations to the govern
ment and the soldiers, but she has
personally given her own valuable time
and assistance in overseeing the
supply work at various camps, and in
this has undoubtedly spent consider
able money of which no account has
been taken. We congratulate Miss
Gould upon her liberality, upon being
the daughter Of the late Jay Gould,
and also congratulate the American
people that she is one among them.

The country weekly newspaper is
read five times to q daily newspapers
once. The country newspaper is read
entirely, where the daily newspaper is
hurriedly scanned and it's advertise
ments are seldom read outside of the
cities in which they are published.
The best advertising space, therefore,
is in the live, energetic country news
paper. With the same circulation as
q daily newspaper one issue of the
country newspaper is worth from FIVE
to ten times more than the daily news
paper.

We are inclined to the belief that
too much ill has been said of the
Cubans. Admiral Sampson, in COM
mand of the North Atlantic squadron,
in recent interview, spoke very highly
of them, saying that "Gen. Garcia is
q grand old man, and I learned to ad-
,mire him during my short stay before
Santiago" It is we'll to hear from both
sides of the fence before forming de-
finite opinion.

The representative from this dirtrict
has been urging the interior depart
ment to accept the second lowest bid
for the construction of the new govern
ment school at Pipestone. this State,
the contractor making that bid being
a person named Redmond. His bid
does not include water and sewer, as
does the lowest bid. Just why the
representative wants the interior de-
partment to accept q higher over a
lower bid the Washington correspond
ents do not state. We hope that pol
itics have nothing to do with it, how
ever.

While there is something in the
charges against the war department
on account of the improper provisions
made for the soldiers, it seems to US
that the scandal is greatly magnified
by the sensational daily papers: To
equip an army as quickly as was done
by the war department must naturally
result in some hardships, but the hard
ships endured during the present war
would have never been thought of had
they occurred during the civil war,
when they we're infinitely greater. It
seems that all the present scandalous
talk can do naught but weaken the
United States army in the eyes of 9TH
Or nations.

American members of the peace COM
mission to meet similar commission
from Spain in Paris, before Oct. LIST,
for the purpose of framing treaty be-
tween the country of Alphonso XII
and the United States.
The commission is undoubtedly a
good one, and it is probable that each
member has his instructions from the
President. Senators Davis and Frye
are known to be two of the great
American expansionists in the United
States Senate to-day. Judge Day, at
present secretary of State, is probably
in sympathy with the Senators as we'll
as with the President. It is believed
that Mr.. Justice White is also an ex-
pansionist, yet to what extent is un-
known. Whitelaw Reid is a bush
whacking politician of New York,
whose paper has bolted the State or
ganization repeatedly, and we will not
be surprised if he turns out to be the
weak sister on the commission.
From the makeup of the commits
sion it looks as though President Nc
Kinley has caught the drift of public
sentiment aad proposes to hold the
PHILIPPINES. He realizes that other
nations, particularly England, the
strong, wants us to hold them, and
that it would be folly to allow them
to revert to Spain, and thereby con-
tinue the cruel persecution of the ma
tives that has been going on for four
centuries. We believe that this is
what the President and the commits
sion mean to do; if not, the President
proposes that the United States will
have something to say about the gov
eminent of those islands.

Use the Newspapers.

Legislation is much needed to COM
pei the publication of notices concern
ing local government, such as town,
village and school matters, in the To-
newspapers. Taxpayers should not
be compelled, as they are now in
many instances, to hunt, for them in
places where the majority do not
usually go, such as hotels, stores, bar
Der shops or saloons, or in out-of-the-
way places where they are not gener-
ally seen, as on billboards, telegraph
poles, barns aad fences. There is en-
tirely too mcuh chance business about
this, and the result is, that only few
selfish persons hunt up these notices
for the purpose of using the informa-
tion for their own selfish ends.
As there are but few persons who
do not read their local papers, the
officials in some localities have adopt
ed the wise method Of publishing all
such notices through the newspapers.
And it would be a wise proceeding
if all public officials would adopt the
wise plan as it is matter of great
interest in the way of conducting a
wise and economical local government.
