GEN. CHAs. KING, the distinguished
soldier novelist, in letter to the Mil
waukee Journal, says: "The capability
of the Filipinos for selfgovernment
cannot be doubted; such men as ARIEL
lano, Aguinaldo and many others
whom might name, are highly edu-
Gated; nine-tenths of the people can
read and write and all are skilled arti-
sans in one way or another. They are
industrious, frugal, temperate, and If
given a fair start, could look out for
themselves infinitely better than our
people imagine. In my opinion they
rank far higher than the Cubans or the
nneducated negroes, to whom we have
given the right of suffrage"

1T is enough to make q crocodile
smile to read what Chairman Snively,
of the governors board of audit and
control, says about "inspiring the con-
fidenee of the public" Mr.. Snively
was the Democratic nominee for gov.
ernor few years ago, but, to quote the
language Of Governor Rogers with re-
speot to DIR. Lockhart, sensational
charges most grave in character" were
made against him and it was pretty
conclusively shown that he had EN-
bezzeled trust funds in Pennsylvania
and that if he was not exactly fugi-
tive from justice in a legal sense, lie
had migrated to the west to escape the
justice of public opinion in the east.
Because of these disclosures Mr..
Snively found it impossible to inspire
any great amount of confidence him
self IN this state. "The public" would
have rather more confidence in the
board of control if Mr.. Snively's con-
nection with it were not so prom

IT would appear that the South pole
is not any easier to reach than the
North pole. The Belgian expedition,
which started out to 60 to the Ant
artic end of the world, has been heard
from. 1t got within LOO miles of the
objective point, was caught in the ice,
drifted about for 1900 miles, got out of
the pack and returned to the place of
beginning. The expedition did not
approacl the point reached by Sir
John Ross, sixty years ago, by 400
miles. At this rate of progress the
equator is more likely to be struck by
the Belgian expedition than the South

vember, 1892, and who is described as
"a physician without q practice, ex-
preacher, ex-editor and ex-real estate
agent, "a man who has had little ex-
perience in the treatment of insane
patients and who is not generally
known to have demonstrated any
special capacity for executive manage

The disclosures arising from the
action of Governor Rogers and his
board of audit and control in removing
DIR. Lockhart from the superintendency
of the Medical Lake insane asylum and
appointing "Doc" Mclean to succeed
him are not very well calculated to
envelope the governor aud his fellow
schemers in halo of glory. DIR. Lock-
hart was removed after having been
officially informed that there were no
charges against him, and the assistant
superintendent, whom the governor
had favored for the first place, was inn
mediately appointed. The governor
now alleges that Sensational charges,
most grave in character, were made
q sainst DR.. Lockhart and his manage
i4ent,n which charges, it appears, are
founded upon affidavits from two
female employees discharged by DR..
Lockhart, alleging immoral conduct
on his part, etc: The "public." which
the governor processes to be so desirous
of pleasing, win not be likely to attach
much importance to allegations of THE
sort against frisky young gentleman
Of 8s, but even if they were proven to
be well founded and the removal of
Hr. Lookhart seemed to be clearly
justified by the facts, the governor and
his board of control would experience
considerable difficulty in satisfying
rthe publicn that they had any justifi=
cation for the appointment of a man
who was expelled from membership in

Whether the possession of electric
lights and water works has tendency
to stimulate improvement and prog

come or now in process of construction

The Kidney Complexion.

The pale, sallow, sunken-cheeked
distressed-looking people you so often
meet are afflicted with kidney Com
plexion."
Their kidneys are turning TO a par
snip color. So is their complexion.
They may also have indigestion, or
suffer from sleeplessness, rheumatism,
neuralgia, brain trouble, nervous ex-
haustion and sometimes the heart acts
badly.
The cause is weak, unhealthy kidneys.
Usually the sufferer from kidney dis
ease does not find out what the trouble
is until it is almost too late, because the
first symptoms are so like mild sickness
that they do not think they need med
icine or a doctor until they find them
selves sick in bed.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root will build
up and strengthen their weak and dis
eased kidneys, purify their diseased,
kidney-poisoned blood, clear their com
plexion and soon they will enjoy better
health.
You can get the regular sizes at the
drug store, at fifty cents and one dollar,
or you may first prove for yourself the
wonderful virtues of this great dis
covery, Swamp-Root, by sending your
address to DR.. Kilmer * Co., Bingham

book that tells all about it, both sent

Benefit Concert a Success.

The benefit concert for the poor
came off Tuesday night us announced,
and proved a grand success, both imam
cially and in its reception by those
present as an entertainment.
1t may be said that but very short
time was given for preparation, yet
each and every one performed their
parts well and to the satisfaction OF
the audience. The program was made
up entirely of home talents, and the
village has much reason TO feel proud
of go much material of such high
order. The male quartette, always
ready and willing to help along such
things, gave one of their happy selec-
tons, and the shower OF hands given
compelled several returns to the stage
before the audience would be satiefied.
Mrs. Geo. w. Allen favored the audi
ence with vocal solo which was well
received and appreciated by all pres
ent. May Fitzgerald, although not yet
in her teens, being only IL years old,
gives promise of future excellence as
singer. She has a very sweet voice,
and for her age has wonderful control
of it, and she added much TO the en-
tertainment in her selection. Misses
Lillian Hennessy and Nellie Michaels'
piano solos were charmingand brilliant,
and the audience showed their thor
ough approval by calling them back
for repetition which was given later
in the evening. The bows in Miss
Browns room, on very short notice,
prepared the boot black drill, and went
through the evOlutions peculiar TO that
fraternity, in manner that reflects
credit, not only on the teacher who
drilled them, but also on the boys for
the admirable precision displayed in
going through their exercises. The
girls, too, IN their bow and arrow drill,
although already before a Yale audi
ence. lost none of its interest IN the
repetition, proved very pleasing and
entertaining part of the entertainment
Little Clair Jardine, always Il favor
tie before the Yale public, gave reel
tatiOn, "The Worlds Busted. and got
shower of hands, and later appeared
the second time in II cute little piece,
The Bahy's Teeth" which brought
down the house. Clair is little fel-
low, but he can make II big laugh all
the same.

Reliable Concern.

We publish an advertisement of
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure in our columns
this issue, and wish to say to our pa
irons that we believe this preparation
is worthy of trial by any person suf-
fering from this n oniZing complaint.
We honestly believe this preparation
will do for you all the manufacturers
claim for it.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is prepared by
the well known and reliable firm of
+. 4. Dewitt q Co., Chicago, and from
our long experience in II business
sense, with this firm as advertisers, we
feel safe in saying, that they would
not place on the market n preparation
for the cure of dyspepsia unless they
had II remedy of the highest merit,
and conscientiOusly believed it would
cure this we'll known and almost uni.
verSal complaint.
We further add that if this prepare
ton is equal to the other we'll known
remedies which they make, Wide
" itIs Little Early Risers, DeWitt's
Witch Hazel Salve, and One Minute
Ough cure, il will speedily win it,
way into public favor.
We cheerfuIly and heartily give our
personal endorsement to this concern
and reliability of the goods they manu-
facture which have been largely the
means of their success, and IN writing
tins voluntary endorsement on uuI
part, we feel that we are simply per-
forming duty which we owe to ouT
patrons.
