ther was measuring out his powder, and
ramming Gown the wad, his friend came
running up and laughing very hard so
he couldn't speak, but he waved his arm
in warning, but too late, for before my
father could dodge, the great, bloody
paw Of the bear gave him a slap on his
face. But that was the old fellows last

Father was such a bold and fearless
hunter that mother was always in great
anxiety while he was off in the woods.

shirt in rags, torn i'm a struggle with a
big wounded buck. Now, there are
many stories like this, but cannot take
more of your time. But hope you will
rememberthat you are to make the future
history of this little town, and though
you cannot go out into the forest and kill
bear and wolves, yet are there braver
things for you to do in driving out shame
and wickedness from our little village.

so much for this placer Then will you
be remembered many years from now as
those who lived in honest effort for the
good of their neighbors; and so of all the

SHALL WE HAVE WAR?

If We are to believe some of the big
newspapers of the country these days
we are to have war with Spain right
away, and if we look them over next
day we are far from having any war,
and then again it is easy to figure
from their pages of sensational slush
that war is already upon us. All this
is done to sell papers. As has been
said the warmongers have a hard
time to get their fakes in ahead OF
the denials. Meantime the official in.
quiry under the direction of the Ma.
Wy department is progressing With
due speed and accuracy at Havanna
and Key West, aud the result of this
investigation alone will determine
whether we have war or not. The ad.
ministration is proceeding with all
proper deliberation and thoroughness,
and no amount of Jingoism will force
1t into hasty or embarrassing atti
tude. That may as well be under
stood first as last.
President Mckinley expects to re.
ceive the report of the naval inquiry
at an early date. He fully appreciates
the feeling of the people AID congress
against any arbitration Of the demand
on Spain. Congress is holding back
lor the president to formulate and
make known his demand on Spain
This information from the White
House is expected in a short time af.

inquiry has developed so far is mers

ational reports should at once ihroN

conducted with the utmost secrecy
and nothing lie leaking out. The di
vers are carefully guarded when il
their work and no facts are given t
the public.
Should it be found that there ha
