On the Death of Lulu M. Gibson

Our Heavenly Father has taken from
us by death our beloved friend and class
mate, Lulu Gibson. "Her sun went
down while it is yet day" and this early
removal from the promises and possibil-
titles of this life to the life eternal, pre-
sents problem in divine Providence too
difficult for our solution. Onr hearts are
filled with sadness, and we offer earnest
sympathy to the mourning friends in
that home wherein she was the light and
JOY. We mourn for her earthly presence !;
we cherish her memory and emulate her
virtues, looking to reunion beyond the
bright dawning of another life.

WHERE THE JOKE CAME IN.
The Boys Hauled the Professor Back
Much to Their Chagrin and
Discomfort.

A very good story is told of the head
of a college, who was the possessor of
a very clumsy, old-fashioned vehicle, to
which he was very partial and which
he constantly used in riding through
the streets of the town, to the disgust
of most of the students.
A plan was formed among some of
the boys that on certain night they
would remove this offensive vehicle
from the coach-house to wood about
half mile from the college. Their in
tention was to run the carriage into the
thickest of the woods and underbrush
and leave it there.
But the principal by some means
learned or suspected their intention.
Accordingly, in the evening, he quiet
ly went out to the coach-house, and,
well wrapped up, crouched in corner
of the carriage, and waited.
Soon the boys came, very stealthily,
and, without looking into the vehicle,
began their operations very quietly;
and in whispers, and with many a
'Hush," and "Take care" and "Look
out" they succeeded in getting it out
of the house and yard, and into the
road.
There they were all right, but they
were puzzled to find the thing so heavy
to haul; and amid grumblings and puff
ings and paintings, varied occasionally
with strong expression of disgust
they succeeded in reaching the woods
the principal listening to their com
plants, and rather enjoying the situa-
ton.
Having with some difficulty backed
the carriage into the brush, they began
to congratulate each other on the sue
cess of their maneuver. The old gen.
tleman, letting down the window, to
their utter surprise and alarm, very
quietly said:
''Now, young gentlemen, just take
me back very carefully, if you please

Cuba Must Remain Under Our Control

Every day brings new proof OF the
utter incapacity and unreliabilty of
the Cubans, and their arrogant de-
mands to be allowed to assume the
reins of government in Cuba, to the
end that they may "make it unpleas-
ant" for all those citizens who do not
belong to their little military coterie,
are disgusting the people of this
country, who are rapidly losing their
sympathy and respect for what they
supposed was band of patriotic heroes,
ready to die for liberty. Instead are
found few thousand INDECENT. shift
less good-for-notbings, whose highest
aim appears to plumber those who
have something to lose, to gorge them
selves and live without work.
Not one of the leaders of this lazy
rabble appears to have the slightest
idea of the first principles of a
stable government, but appear to
to think that all they have to do is TO
set up forcible military government
where the small minority may rule the
people by means Of force and terror,
and make them provide subsistence
and salaries,
These few leaders brazenly assert
that it is time for the Americans to get
out of Cuba and leave the island and
it's people to their tender mercies. 1t
is apparent that American control in
Cuba must be continued for long
time yet, until the Cuban people have
learned the spirit of our institutions,
and that if an independent govern
ment is ever established there must be
done under the protection and control
OF United States authorizes. Other
wise anarchy would result, beside
which the OF Spain would be the en-
bodiment of justice, law and order

A Republican Landslide.

The election just passed has been a
Republican landslide everywhere, and
reputation of fusionism and fusion
politics. In Washington, it was over
whelming, and little short of miracu-
lous, considering the majority to over
come.
The following states went strongly
Republican: New York, Michigan,
Nevada, Wyoming, Minnesota, Kansas
Nebraska, West Virginia, Dakota,
Iowa, and New England States. Others
are closer. but there is no question
about Congress being safely Republic
can in harmony with President Nc
Kinley to carry out Republican poll
cies.
In Washington the fusionists lost
nearly every county, and especially in
the Eastern part of the state, which
both sides conceded to populists. Spo-
kane county went Republican by 600,
and instead of coming to the noun
tains with 5000 majority, the fusion
lists came there $50 in the hole. Only
nine counties out of the 81 in the
state, all of minor Importance, gave
fusion majorities, small like that OF
Mason. In nearly every county Re-
publicans elected the full county ticket
and part of their local ticket. 1t was
awful the way the people of Washing
ton repudiated Organism, Lewisism.

and prosperity.
