TRANSFER PENDING.


pared i'm the Bridge case and the
Court now has the Matter mp for final
action.
The county court has the matter
of the transfer of the bridge compa-
nv before it this afternoon. The pa
pers have all been prepared and the
orders are being signed. When this
is completed all that will remain will
be the opening of the bridge to the
public which will take place on the
first of April the beginning of the
next fiscal year.
The court will pay cash for the
bridge having secured the money for
the structure from the banks at the
rate of four and and a half per cent
which is very liberal on their part. s ..s
No increase will be made in the
levy and in two years the debt will be
entirely wiped out. The court house
has been paid for and in two years the
county will have nothing against it
for the two greatest improvements
ever made in the county.

Our Vassal King.

And now we have vassal king in
our collection of colonial curiositles.
General Bates has returned to Manila
from the Sulu archipelago, where he
went to square the sultan. For a
given annual stipend his royal high,
ness will hereafter recognizs the SOW
reignty of the United States all oyer
his islands, but the United States
has to do some re ognizing too There
are two institutions in the archipelago
that are as dear and sacred to the
sultan and the aristocracy as the
apple of their diam md shaped eyes.
One is poIygamY aud the other is
human slavery. Some time ago the
sultan agreed under pressure to abolish
slavery, and to that end he issued 8
proclamation In which he patroni,
zingly announced to the slaves as
we'll as their masters. that upon tend
ering his or her commercial value as
property in cash to his or her owner,
the owner would be obliged to issue
freedom papers. But as slaves of the
Sulu islands do not keep q bank ac-
count, nor was one of them ever
known to have any money, the sui
tans proclamation has not disturbed
the institution of slavery, which used
to be called ''a league with bell and
a covenant with the devil" in this
country in the days of John Brown.
The wisdom and patriotism of Pres
ident Mckinley in recognizing the
institutions of polygamy and human
slavery will not be questioned when
1t is remembered that vassal king.
and one of the finest, that is, the
strongest penal colony in the world
goes with these "twin relics of bar
barism-' " The penal islands will come
handy when the President gets ready
to banish TRAITORS" and copper
heads" The dispatch says General
Bates automatically gained the
friendship of all the chiefs and had
the sultan so that his overthrow could
have been easily accomplished" By
tracing back its history every loyal
family of Europe will be found to
have Its beginning in automatically
gaining the friendship and confidence
OF those whose possessions it coveted.
But, anyway, the glorious old stars
and stripes floats more or less proudly
over and gives ample protection to a
vsssal king, polygamy and human
slavery, and they are the flags to
keep and maintain.-Kansas City
Times.
