BETTER THAN MONEY. "

l Senator Mitchell of Wisconsin struck
 a note of true patriotism in his reply l to a friend who advised him to work
 for pacific solution of the present in- ternational crisis. This reply, printed in the Washington Star, covered a great deal of ground. It went at the root of the present evil, the destruction
 of the Maine by what most Ameri- cons firmly believe to have been Span ish treachery. MT. Mitchell is in a good position from which to speak as he has spoken on the question. His previous sentiments toward Cuba jus tify his warmth of feeling now without exposing him to the thought1ess charge of being "jingo." The concluding part of his message, which is classical in it's succinct emphasis, is worthy of reproduction:
 'Over-refnement of argument is useless. It stands before the Ameri- can people plain case of treachery. Perfidy and cruelty run in the Spanish blood. There is little else in it's his tory. Any nation that would permit such an outrage to go unpunished would not deserve to exist There are some things worse than war. There are some things better than money"

THE MESSAGE.

The presidents message to the con- gress presented yesterday, consisted of a resume of the facts with which the country is familiar, declaration in favor of intervention, and a plea for the employment of the army and navy by the president in carrying out what plans he may formulate to bring peace to Cuba. Whether the congress will grant his request is a question that cannot be answered at this moment Judging from the success the president already has met with in curbing the
 fiery spirits at the capital it is quite likely that his recommendations will be carried out. It will be impossible for the United States to intervene without the aid of the army and navy, unless Spain's present attitude is mere buster, and as the president Is plainly convinced that we must intervene the congress is apt to give him the respOn- sibility he asks for. The presidents picture of the horrors that surround existing conditions in Cuba is suff1- ciently vivid to make every American desire that intervention take place without further delay. The country is ripe for the job.

 The first printers used to print only on one side of the page, and then pasted together the two blank pages to give the impression of one leaf.

DESERTED, BUT NOT FORGOTTEN

The wreck of the battleship Maine by the United States government and ] for the present it will remain a monu- ment to Spanish treachery. Buried in 1 the wreck are the bodies of seventy five American sailors.
 Deserted though the wreck now is, even the stars and stripes having been removed, it is but temporary deser- tion. Everything possible has been done for the present in the matter of salvage. The recovery of the remains of the poor sailors is impossible. as far down into the mud the shattered warship is sinking steadily. But the United States will eventually return to it's task of taking out the broken and twisted remnants of a once proud ship.
 When the United States again sends it's wreckers to Havana harbor the conditions will be different. There will be no hostile guns trained on our men, and there will not be a ribald rabble on shore to boot and deride the poor fellows so suddenly sent to their last resting place.
 The United States has not forgotten and it will never forget the Maine and it's cowardly undoing. So long as this nation endures the memory of the men or the Maine will be kept green.

HOW HE GOT WATER.

When people are suffering from thirst they will resort to all kinds o1 means to get water" remarked gen. tleman who was at one time member of the United States geological and sur veying expedition in the Indian terri tory. "For some time we had been with out water and were suffering greatly. Among our number was an old trapper who was as keen on the scent for water as is a hound on the trail of a deer. Finally he paused at a place and stopped.
 T think there's water here if we could dig well,' he observed.
 "'But we can't replied.
 "'No, but we can do something else, he said.
 With that he cut reed, tying some moss on the end of it. Then he dug into the earth, placed his reed in the hole and packed the earth around the reed.
 "'Do you mean to say that you can suck water out of that thing?' I asked.
 "'Yes, if, as I think, there's water near the surface
 He drew strongly at it with much satisfaction.
 Good he remarked, would you like to try it?'
 With little confidence in the result l sucked at the reed with the surprising result of getting plenty of clear, pure water. To my parched tongue it seemed the very nectar of the gods.
 Its as clear as the water of 8 spring. said.
 "'Yes, the moss is our filter,' he re- piled.
 We pursued our journey much re- freshed, and never forgot the old trap per's advice."-Detroit Free Press.

THE VALUE OF ADVERTISING.

Advertising ought to be one O the most thoroughly and seri ously planned parts of a success full mans business. The old ad- vertising saw reflects the true spirit of advertising If you would be successful, don't go at this business spasmodically. Keep everlastingly at it. Don't spread your advertising. If you can only spend a thousand dollars a year, concentrate it mainly in one direction-in one newspaper. Where your business will per- init the addition of another thousand dollars, then you may commence to spread a little. But a small sum spread over all the newspapers in town, and taking in every fake scheme that is pre- sented, becomes very thin ad- vertising in the end. And once having started advertising, don't let go. Advertising gains mo- mentum as it goes along.-From 'The Art of Advertising"

Miss Brownie Bixby Barker were
united in marriage at McCain's last
Sunday afternoon by Rev. M. E.
Gabard. The young people went
about in their usual walks of life
after the marriage, intending to
keep it a secret; but such secrets
are hard to keep, and this one leaked
out Il little sooner than was eX-
pected and the marriage became
generally known yesterday. The
affair came in the nature of a sur
prise to many of their friends, but
all join in wishing them much hap
piness in life.
