Prefer Monte Vista.

County Commissioner Rankin
reported to the county board the
result of his visit of inspection of
the soldiers home at Monte Vista.
He said he found the old warriors
happy and that it is true, as claim
ed, that there are some forty vet
Grams at the home who claim resi-
dence in Arapahoe county.
He ascertained that all the coun-
ties in the state except Mineral
county, have agreed to help the
home during its financial straits.
The soldiers told him that they are
satisfied with the place but express
ed the wish that it might be locat-
ed in place nearer Denver.
The people of Monte Vista are
still vigorously opposed to such
step. In the commissioners opin-
ion the home is not SO comfortable
as the new county poor farm, but
the soldiers prefer not to undergo
the odium of such an institution.

SIX LIVES LOST
IN CONVENT FIRE.
ST. Dominick Home. Near New
York. ENTIRELY Destroyed.
WAITS WITHOUT A HOME.

Nyack, n Y, August Is. Six
lives were lost by the burning of
St Agnes convent at Sparkill, five
miles south of here. early this
morning. Four were burned to
death and two died while being
rescued from the burning building.
-Four Sisters jumped from alwin-
dow and sustained serious Injuries
from which they will probably die.
st. Agnes home is conducted by
the Sisters of St Dominick. The
convent was used for home for
homeless children, and several
hundred waits were in the build
ing when the fire broke out.
Three building comprising the
main structure and one detached
building were burned,
The scenes on the outside of the
building while the fire was in pro-
gress were heartrending. The
waits, most of whom were from
New York, were huddled together
on the hill, many of them dressed
onlyin their night garments. These
white robed figures illumined by
the light of the flames made a
striking picture.

SENATORS BY POPULAR VOTE

Another State has been heard
from on the question of electirg
United States senators by the
direct vote of the people, and lis
voice is favorable to the PROPOSE
ton. On Wednesday the question
was brought before the West
Virginia House of Delegates, and
that body, by a vote of 81 to 4,
pronounced for choosing sena-
tors at the polls.
West Virginia has just passed
through an exciting senatorial
election during which there-were
frequent whispers of ''hoodling."
While it cannot be said that it
was established that these whisp-
ers were justified, it is not to be
questioned that bossism and wor.
ship of those fat on worldly
goods had a great deal to do with
influencing the result. Moreover,
the way in which bossism ass
serted itself in the struggle
threatened at one time to bring
about bloodshed.
However, even had there been
no scandal at all connected with
the West Virginia senatorial
election the action of the House
of Delegates of that State would
not have been very surprising
No one can blink the fact that
there is a growing sentiment
throughout the country in favor
of the popular system of electing
United States senator's. Even 10
States where there has been no
talk of undue Influence in deter-
mining the choice for senators
this sentiment is gaining a strong
hold.
The idea seems to be that the
election Of senators by the popus
lar vote will afford the only as
surance against all the States be-
coming in time the victims of
Quay or Hanna methods, and the
Senate's eventually being com~
posed almost entirely of men
more noted for their ducats and
unscrupulousness than for their
qualifications for senatorship.
The argument is that all the
States aretqually interested in a
change that will purge the Senate
and keep it purged.

AS OTHERS Sci US.

The Richmond Times, COM
menting on a much mooted and
deeply absorbing question in this
State, has the following to- say:
owe observe that some of our
North Carolina exchanges are in
.teresting themselves in the ques-
ton of home insurance. Accord
ing to the North Carolina iDsur-
ance reports for 1898, showing
the amount of insurance business
done in that State for 1897, the
people paid out for that year alone
in fire insurance premiums $780,
$685.; in life Insurance prem
iums, 1870, 734.29, and in acct
dent insurance, etc., $85, 779.45
making q total of 50, SIT, 169. 93,
every dollar of which went to the
insurance companies in other
States, mainly in the North. In
return the policy~holders of North
Carolina received during this year
81, 1868, 259.7 rs, leaving a balance
in favor of the insurance compa~
nids of $1,212, $40, Is.
"Why not keep this money at
homer" asks the Raleigh Post.
Why, indeed? The conditions in
Virginia are similar to those in
North Carolina, and for eighteen
months we have been asking the
people Of Virginia, as our RAJ
leigh contemporary is 10Y ask
ing the people of North Carolina,
why not keep this money at
home? But in order to do this
two things are necessary. There
must be home companies aud the
people must ~patroniza them. We
OF the South got into the habit
during the war Of sending to the
North for our supplies, and bad
habits are hard to break. We can
not get over the idea that the
thing which the North has is bet
ter than the thing at home, and
we do not patronize our own in
situations as we ought to. But the
South is learning. We have
learned how to manufacture cot
ton, and whereas we used to send
all the raw cotton to New Eng
land to be spun and woven into
cloth and returned to US at enor>
nous profits, nowadays we are
erecting cotton factories in The
cotton patches and manufactur
the raw material into cloth.
not only supplying own
wants at home, but shipping a
great deal Of it abroad,
The South is also learning to
make iron, and to manufacture
the crude iron into various pro-
ducts. Every year we are more
and more depending upon our
to supply our own wants,
and keeping more Of our money
at home. Those who have gotten
into the bad habit of sending to |
the North for their supplies will
prefer to patronizs the Northern
insurance companies, but the
great body Of the Southern peo-
pie are gaining much more con-
idence in their own institutions,
Ind we have no sort of doubt
hat within the next ten years
here will be several wealthy,
irmlysestablished insurance
companies in the Southern
States. It is a very live question,
md a question that will not die.

A VOICE FROM TENNESSEE.

Tennessee Public School Officers
Association a committee was ap-
pointed to consider the question,
esshould the State allow poverty
and the value of child labor 10 de-
feat the object of public schools?''
which, being interpreted, means
should there be compulsory edu-
cation in Tennessee. The commits
tee made the following report:
ssThe committee assigned this
question do not report in favor OF
compulsory education in Tennes~
see. They do not believe the time
is ripe for such a law, if in fact
such a time shall ever come in this
State, Our people rightly believe
in the largest measure of individ-
US. liberty, and that the welfare
of the child and his control right
ly belongs to the parent, and not
to the body polite. They are ops
posed to a system of schools that
is Spartan or Prussian in its char
acter. We believe that the natural
affection implanted by Providence
in the hearts of the parent for his
child will give to it its best guard~
ianship. We believe that the head
of the family can best look to the
interest of the children, and that
we should resist the encroach-
ments of the State upon home con-
troll"
1--WE believe for the education Of
the children we should not look
to a paterral and centralizing law,
full of police powers and reguIa-
tions, but rather depend upon al
enlightened public conscience, the
attractiveness of the schools and
the moral influence and toll of the
teachers. We should not, like Mo-
hamet, seek to promulgate u ed
ucational creed with the sword of
compulsory law, but rather like
the Christ, offer and appeal, but
not ~coerce."
In this day of I~aternalism and
Populist outgiVing, these resolu-
tions are truly refreshing, and
we read and print them with great
pleasure and gratiftato on. Many
people of this age have an idea
that the government should con-
troll everything; that it should not
only supply the means of popular
education but that it should fur
nist the children with books and
clothes and lunch, and that the
children of the country should be
compelled to attend school, wheth~
er or not. Whenever that day
comes, American liberty is at an
end. If the government may take
a mans son and force him into
school, that same government
may take the same child and force
him to serve the government for
a term of years in the army, or in
government shops or otherwise.
Lei us guard the sanctity of our
homes. Let US guard our liberty |
with our lives. We believe in ed
ucation; we believe in popular ed
ucation. We believe that the
government should afford all
possible facilities for the
education Of the youth Of
this country, for we believe
that with an educated citizenship
shall have a better citizenship, |
But God forbid that we should
have a citizenship of government
dependents in the place Of Amer
lean men. We would not swap in-
dependent, American manhood
for all the book learning IN the
world.
