GATHERED
HERE AND THERE.
The Lowest of savages.

A race called Aetas live in the
Philippine islands. They are the
missing links. Soonssthey will be in
habitants of the United States, says
the New York Journal Their exact
political status is not vet decided up
on. The Aetas are an important link
in the chain of evolution which con-
meets man with the ape, AS such
they will be warmly welcomed by
American scientists. They are the
lowest existing race of men. They
are Just above the fossil remains of
ape-like men found by DR.. Dubois
and others. The Aetas cannot count
above five. They know no agricul-
ture and build no houses. Their
language is like the chattering of the
gpes. In appearance they are much
like the apes. They have fat noses,
protruding jaws and Ieceeding fore
heads. Their bodies are large and
legs thin. They spend most of their
time on their launches, They are
agile, and can pick up pins with
their toes. They live in the forests Of
the interior. It is impossible to tame
or domesticate them. They are con-
sidered much lower than the intelli-
gent caunibals and head hunters,
who form an important part of the
population of the islands.

WHEN the nation is in danger
Uncle Sam can have all the soldiers
he wants whether he pays them any
thing or not, but when the nation is
at peace, the American citizen is not
enthusiastic about the army service.
The reason for this is that military
life then becomes business, andf$l3
per month is attractive to no one and
acceptable to only very few. For
this reason, there will probably be
some difficulty in finding enough
men to fill the regular army up to the
100000 men required. The pay of
the private soldier should be increased
and made to accord somewhat with
what may be earned by at least an
ordinary laborer.

w. G. BIoKNELL's chances of ulti-
mately landing the judgeship of this
district are growing apace. We I'M
derstand that the Democratic
strength of this county is to be
thrown for him, which is very COM
mendable thing for the Democrats to
do instead of trying to throw it for
one of their party and thus help re-
move the chambers from Morris. 1t
is also significant that the local bar
excepting those who are candidates

Mr.. Bicknell is the only candidate

The Cause of Trusts.

Persons who have insisted, in sea-
son and out of season, that protection
is the father of trusts will be bothered
to explain how trusts continue to
flourish in Great Britain Another
of these combinations of capital is in
the process of formation among the
Overs in the Bradford district, and at
last accounts only one large dyeing
firm was standing out. The fact is
that trusts are born of strenuous COM
petition, and if, as is taught by econ
omists of the Manchester school, com
petition is whetted by free trade,
Great Britain should be the natural
home of trusts. Certainly no condi-
lions should be more favorable to the
growthof trusts than those produced
in Great Britain blythe intense indust-
rial rivalry that country is meeting,
both at home and abroad, from the
United States and Germany. Great
or economy in production is an in
dustrial necessity for the United
Kingdom.-New York Commercial
Advertiser.

INTERNATIONAL FRATERNITY.

During the discussion three years
ago regarding an international treaty
of arbitration between the United
States and Great Britain, there was
prevalent in both countries very
general feeling of international fra
ternity.
At that time Professor George
Huntington of Carleton College
wrote an international Hymn" to
the tune of "America" and likewise
to ''God Save the Queen" which
voiced what the air was then and IS
now so full of. This international
Hymn" was at that time given wide
publicity. but it may probably be
said is now more widely known in
England and Australia than in the
United States. 1t has already found
a place IN several popular song
books.
Because of the interest which is at
present felt in this subject, we reprint
the hymn entire.
INTERNATIONAL HYMN.
(TUNE, AMEBIoA.)
Two empires by the sea,
Two nations, great and free,
One anthem raise.
One race of ancient fame,
One tongue, one faith, we claim,
One God whose glorious name
We love and praise.
What deeds our fathers wrought.
What battles we have fought,
Let fame record.
Now, vengeful passion, cease.
Come, victories of peace;
Nor hate nor pride's caprice
Unsheath the sword.
Though deep toe sea and wide
'Twixt realm and realm, it's tide
Binds strand to strand,
So be the gulf between
Grey coasts and islands green,
Great populace and Queen,
By friendship spanned.
Now, may the God above
Guard the dear lands we love,
Or East or West.
Let love more fervent glow,
As peaceful ages go,
And strength yet stronger grow,
Blessing and blest.
GEO. HUNTINGTON.

ASSUMES RESPONSIBILITY.

IT is the prerequisite of good gov
ernn.ent and indeed of successful
control of any corporate body that it
she'll be possible to fix responsibility
for the acts of a corporate body or of
q government directly upon its Off
GERS. Only when officers recognize
this relation do they keep faith and
sincerity with their people.
In the division of the functions of
government under the American con-
stitution, it is also very easy to divide
the responsibility in a very unsatis-
factory manner. Thus when the
President and congress are not in
perfect accord, each blames the other
if the administration becomes unpop-
ular with the people.
When we come to analyse the pop
ulsrity Of the administration of Pres
ident Mckinley, it is this assuming
of responsibility on his part that has
unconsclously been a prominent
cause of our appreciation. From his
inaugural day, President Mckinley
has gathered the different branches
of the government about him in such
q manner that they have accom-
plished much, and for whatever they
have done they are able to take full
credit or blame. Such course is
what constitutes strong administra-
ton.
A notable instance of this fastening
of responsibility is the manner in
which the President has concluded
this peace with Spain. Instead Of
taking haphazard five of the many
eminent men who might have been
chosen, he selected his own secretary
Of state, who presumably would
know best what he wished to be done
and three senators, who would later
have the presenting of their own
work to the ratifying body, the SEN
ate, and one of whom, Senator Davis,

In ANOTHER column we reprint the
communication sent by PW. Ross
to the Minneapolis Journal regarding
the teaching of the Australian system
of voting in the schools. The scheme
might pro6tsbly be extended to the
district schools of this county.
State Auditor Dunn has suggested
that the plan be embodied in state
law. The plan is a good one and we
hope that it will be brought TO the
attention of the incoming Legislature.

Superintendent Ross Tells How He

Communication to Minneapolis Journals;
1t was with some degree of surprise
but with more of satisfaction that |
noticed Auditor Dunn's comments
headed make EN- Voters" in Sat-
urday's Journal, surprised and salts
fed both, because / find myself in
line with a''great man." for what
Mr.. Dunn suggests is being done in
our schools here. For the same rea-
son that he offers the thought came
to me to just try to see how many of
my pupils could properly mark bal
lot. I, too, thought of using the
sample ballot" but when l examined
it / felt that my purpose would be
frustrated because it was already
marked as straight ticket" at
least all that | could obtain were so
marked and desired no mark on
them at all. [ wished the pupils to
rely solely upon their ability to read
the instructions and vote accordingly
for one, two or three as the ballot
calls for. | went to the county aud
itor and found that he had an album
dance of tickets and all other blanks
pertaining to the election left upon
his hands, and he kindly gave me
enough of them to serve my purposes.
I have taken several copies of the
general election laws and marked in
them with red pencil in each para
graph that which | Judge every voter
should know. These paragraphs l
discuss with the pupils, having them
take notes enough to assist them in
remembering what they should

law are left in their room for them to
examine if they wish. Then we hold
the mock election, having first had a
registration, ;" in regular form. All
the blanks used by the election Off
GERS and auditor are on exhibition
and are explained. After we have
gone through the election, comments
are made regarding improperly
marked votes found by the judges in
counting and questions answered if
any present themselves to the pupils.
The girls take part as we'll as the
boys. Finally, to see what kind of
an idea the pupils have of what they
have done. we require from each one
of them a paper--essay- telling all
about the election.
] feel no little pride in the fact
that have anticipated Mr.. Dunn's
article and that | have as able and
sensible citizen as Mr.. Dunn as
supporter. trust that his idea Of
the law compelling this mock vote
each year in the school can be real
lied, for it is woeful reality that a
very large per cent. of our voters can
not express their wishes in their votes
at present. Don't cease thouhh to
wage war on the straight ballot
scheme"

AT the beginning of the Spanish
war, the Minnesota militia were called
out and kept for couple of weeks
before being mustered into the ser
vice of the United States. For this
time the boys received no pay. The

The large furnace, with ca pac'ty of about l50 tons, is the one in opeiation, and is running very satis- factorily. On the morning shift of eight hours yesterday it turned out 35 bars, and after few days more season ing should do still better.
 The slsg is now conveyed from the furnace, to the dump in two huge pots arranged upon truck drawn by one horse and attended by only one man. It's capacity is equal to eight small hand propelled pets and is easily operated. Horse power is no, altogether satisfactory, however, and an electric motor will probably be substituted at sn early date. Coke began to arrive Monday forenoon and teams have come in almost every day since. There is very largo supply ol coke now at Geronimo.
