Uncle Sam has a handful of islands
that may be likened unto a lot of hor-
nets nests. When they are stirred up,
or after they have been made cross by
q lot of bad boys, they are continually
breaking out and irritating every one
who may happen to pass that way
One thing that makes it all the more
exasperatlng is the in significance of
the hornet.

Germany looks upon the situation as
meaning that American supremacy in
the islands will be impossible. Some
of the German papers, however, seem
20 think that by the move Aguinaldo
has made he has made independence
for the Islands out of the question and
has only exchanged Spanish rule for
American rule. The expressed opinion
OF others Is that such swash-bucklers
as Aguinaldo should be thoroughly
whipped and sent out of the islands.

MUSIC.

1t does seem strange that men of
business who are in touch with the lat
est novelties in their own line should
so constantly declare themselves
against art when it is spoken of in con-
nection with music.
Business men will tell one that they
do D OF want to hear any "sky scraping"
music-arias, overtures, symphonies or
contertos-and that all they want is to
hear the old-time favorites once more,
the tunes that mother used to sing and
the ballads of childhood. These same
men will, in their own lines of business
use and trade in all the newest de.
signs that art has made possible.
Take the grocer, for instance. He
does not sell much oatmeal for por.

the cracked wheat, farinas, and ceral-

W. G. T. q. Notes.

Two events have transpired recently
to greatly encourage temperance work.
ers. The tirst-the anti-canteen victory
Is of National Importance and of In
terest to the liquor hosts and to all
friends of the army and navy. The
other is of local interest and was the
union meeting of all christian young
people in the interest of temperance.
This meeting was an enthusiastic one,
and to an onlooker promised much for
the future. Only one young man pre-
sent had discourasing thought, and
l could not help thinking that he was
not the kind of a christian young man
who would sacrifice himself, as candi-
date for mayor, on purely prohibition
ticket in Mo. Valley. These young
christians are already exerting mark
ed influence in this community, and
let us all encourage them to hold more
meetings like this one.
The w. q. T. e. of Mo. Valley is a
band of christian women from all the
churches, with only one object IN view,
nameIy-to do good. We are organic
ed to help educate public opinion on
total abstinence and prohibition We
have an interest in everything that
touches the home, so we have many
departments and do many kinds of
work. We have no unkind words for
those who do not believe as we do.
We have only prayers and entreaties
for the saloon keeper, the saloon patron
and the saloon voter. Through our
public meetings, the newspapers, and
in every way possible we wish to help
arouse an indifferent public to the
actual condition of things about us.
We are NOT organized to enforce
law, nor do we have vigilance COM
mittee. We are law abiding citizens,
and until We can cast an intelligent
ballot, we take no active part in poll
tics, though in our conventions we
pledge ourselves to support that party
that has prohibition plank in its
platform. We think it is not the
business of individuals or of societies
to enforce law. The officers in Iowa
are ELECTED and PAID for the express
purpose of enforcing laws of all kinds.
"To do this work for them is to relieve
them of their sworn duty; and condone
their criminal negligence in not full
filling their oath of Office"
We expect to put forth every effort
to help make purer and healthier
public sentiment which will support
every man in this community who
does his duty, officer or private citizen.
The w. q. T, U. in Iowa is agitating
q compulsory education law. Are you
ready to express an opinion upon this
up to date question?
Mrs. Carce is untiring in her efforts
to secure the Temperance temple as a
memorial for our sainted leader,
Frances E. Willard.
We wish to express our gratitude to
the city editors for many favors and
especially for the use of their columns
each week during this coming year.

After this time change was made at
the head office by electing II. A.

With a large membership and long
standing as an organization in the city
its members are proud of its record,
of no deaths, and very little sickness,
which of course is in a great measure
to the credit of its local medical exam
iner. Our officers for many years have
been men or sterling ability, and faith

Red Men.
A few facts concerning the lmprov
ed Order of Red Men.

A few facts concerning the Improv-
ed Order of Red Men.
PRINCIPLES.
The Improved Order of Red Men is
a benevolent and social organization.
Its object is to benefit its members
socially, morally and intellectually.
In benevolence, this order is unsur-
passed in taking care of its needy
members.
Founded upon the simple customs of
primitive race, the utmost simplicity
marks its ceremonies, and freedom
and equality are exemplified among all
its members. The question of politi-
cal or religious belief is not allowed to
weigh in the test for qualification for
membership. The applicant must be
free white male, twenty-one years of
age, of good moral character, good
health, industrious and q believer in
the existence of a Supreme being, IN
whose HANDS all power exists.
OBJECTS.
The Order is secret in the sense that
secrecy is right and proper in those
things which concern private interests
Of a common family, and to better and
more worthily carry out the ends set
forth.
1t is named as it is, because, being
American, the aboriginal inhabitants
of this continent we're tawny skinned,
Its name is chosen as above indicated,
as expressive in the highest degree of
its origin, and as peculiarly appropri-
ate to a society which has history Co
equal with the history of the aborigincs
of the American continent.
ITS EMBLEMS ARE DRAWN FROM
NATURE ALONE,
and are symbolized in every scene up
on which the eye can rest when con-
templating the wondrous works of the
Great Spirit" whose power and all
pervading presence must be acknow.
ledged by all who seek to penetrate the
sacred mysteries of the order.
WHAT CONSTITUTES A TRUE RED MAN
One who has taken our pledges and
promised to "strive" to live by oul
principles must be industrious and dill
igent. A lazy man violates sacred
pledges of the order as we'll as natura
obligations.
He must deal justly, not with mem
bers only, but with all, for it would bt

only.
lie must plainly speak to brother
Red Man, and advise him of anything
touching his fair name. A word il

His money must be, paid regularly

The tired business man drops into a
first class restaurant or his sclub for a
MONDAY lunch, and he sees names
which few years ago would have
looked like the titles of some Philip
pine insurgent officer or some French
count in dime novel.
The old time baked potato of moth
er's day is no longer. Today the man
orders ''Pommes de tarre au gratin."
A good slice of home made cheese has
departed in favor of "Fromage." Beef
steak and onions made fine meal for
many of those who are sleeping the
sleep of the just and whose memory
we revere, but if they we're to return
to us now they would have to be COM
forted with "braised beef la mode,
aux fines herbes."
Thus has art deprived people of the
things that mother used to eat, and the
clothes that father used to wear. and
the crGckerY that auntle used to have.
But let us beware lest we make any
change in the music that mother used
to sing.
All of which goes to show that we
are in an age of artistic progress. Art
is all very we'll in the trades, but in the
profession it must be stopped.
But, it is said, the people are clam
oring for the popular music, tie catchy
music, the old fashioned music. Well,
In this connection; an inquiry made at
a certain restaurant in Omaha elected
the information that there were more
orders for corned beef and cabbage
last summer than for any other article
on the bill of fare. Still there were
some who wanted lobster
The secret of the whole success of
the art wave in commodities is this,
that it has crept on gradually, and
while there has been asparagus, there
have also been onions for sale, while
the caterer could serve steak with
creole sauce and subtle delicacies, he
could also get up very appetizing
dish Of fried pigs feet Dreaded.
And herein is lesson. Perhaps if
some of our American musicians who
are seriously in earnest in their efforts
to educate the masses musically would
apply this to their programs it would
have very beneficial effect. Fine
fugues and excellent fantasies can be
made on some of the old themes, and
many favorites IN the form of ballads
can be treated with artistic skill, and
why not indulge the public a little bit
once in awhilep The public really is
appreciative and deserves some consid-
GRAFTON. 1t is not thereby meant that
the popular trash of the day should be
encouraged, but there are ways and
means for the thoughtful.
