THE BOERS RELUCTANT SOL
DIERS

| The Boer must be Wheedled into
| fighting, and none but native officers
can do this If not treated to his no.
ton, he will sulk, and a Chinaman will
| fight better than a sullSy Boer. He is
not soldier, and doesn't pretend to be.
The glamor of battle attracts him not,
and his pride in victory Is so subdued
| as to seem entirely lacking. The dull
routine OF the lager Expresses him.
He pines for the isolation and ease of
his farm, and he frequently insists
upon having his wife with him in the
lager Let me tell the truth. The
Boer is lazy He is almost too lazy to
go and fight. He Is entirely too lazy to
scout Or do picket duty or dig trenches
He will permit a position to remain
easily assalable when a few strokes of
pick and shovel would render it inn
pregnable. He makes nothing of sleep
ing on sentry duty, knowing well that
he will not be punished If caught. En-
vironment and climatic influences are
responsible for this lack of physical en-
ergy. He acknowledges no sequence in
rank, and If his own commandant is
killed will take orders from no one un-
der the commentaries general. This
leaves endless openings for demoraliza-
ton and disintegration of the comman-
does, If the Boer decides to abandon
position no protest of any officer will
prevent his carrying out his design or
check his retreat. Take him altogeth-
er, he is very unsatisfactory soldier
for trained officers to command.
There is mistaken notion abroad
that the operations Of the Beers have
been directed by European and Ameri-
can officers. This widely circulated
statement contains scarcely a scintilla
of truth. A few European officers and
one American Colonel Blake) are here.
They may be men of ability for all
know, and competent to give the Beers
excellent advice. Other foreign officers
would volunteer if they could get COM
missions in the republican army. The
talent can easily be secured. But how
devise scheme to apply it? The Beers
will not obey their own officers, much
less foreigners.-T Thomas F. Millard in
Scribner's.

John Brown His Text.

DR.. Lloyd Jones, pastor Of All Soul S church
i'll Chicago, recently delivered a sermon on John
Brown. In part, he said:
''The first thing to do in the study of the life
of John Brown is to invest it with an atmosphere
of pathos, aye, of poetry and comprehensive.
John Brown was humane, every inch of him, and
he was nearly six feet tall
"Henry Thoreau says of him; He did not 90
to Harvard, but went to the university of the
West, where he studied the science of liberty,
and having taken his degree he commenced The
public practice of humanity in Kansas and such
were his humanites that he would have left
Greek accent slauting the wrong way while he
righted up a fallen man.
"This man never learned to use tobacco in auy
form, and never drank tea or coffee. His IA
vorite books were the Bible Plutarchs Lives
and the stories of Cromwell and Napoleon
''He despised slave holding government, but
he swore the members of the "Gilead band" to
be loyal to the flag and to the Declaration of In
dependence. He who ruthlessly destroyed prop
erty and life and terrorized Virginia was pains
taking, honest and loyal postmaster in Penrsyl-
vania.
"Emmerson said of him while he was lying in
the Charleston jail He is so transparent that
all men see through him, He believes in two
instruments--the Golden rule and the Declata-
ton of Independence,
con the day of his hanging Victor Hugo
wrote from his place of exile i'll Guernesy to the
people of the United States Of America: The
conscience of mankind is an open eye. Let the
people at Charleston understand John Brown is
to be hanged today. His hangman is not the
little state of Virginia, it is the whole American
republic-it is Washington killing Spartacus w

imperialism. Speaking of 10 to in the plat
form, she said to a reporter; 81 certainly think
it should be strongly affirmed in plank by it
self, but think that especial emphasis should
be laid on the antiimperalist policy of the
Republican party. That is question which

would advocate the withdrawal of our armies
from the Philippines and the immediate cession
to the Cubans of the absolute sef-government
we promised them. Could anything be more
opportune to the purposes of the Democratic
party than the present condition OF our rela-
tions with China? Just see to what lengths
imperialism is taking u.s. Against all OF our
teachings, we are entering into the thick Of
the entangling alliances with other powers
there, and are penetrating the monstrosity OF
forbidding Chinese the privileges of our coun-
try and demanding the open door and unequal
concessions from them Speaking of entangling

Politics and Prosperity.
errors.

The relation between politics and prosperity
is thus set forth by the Chicago News
In 1893 Democrat was president of the
United States and in that and the three years
ensuing the county produced an average Of
only 44o, 900 900 bushels of wheat. But for
eign and comparative nations, encouraged by
the triumph of Democracy here, took advantage
of the situation to raise large crops and the in
dustres of our beloved nation languished. In
1897 Republican was president. Behold the
result! We produce $4,000, 900 bushels of
wheat. The French crop was blasted; Russia
suffered from drouth and insects, and that i'm
mortal Republican, Col. Joseph Letter, was en-
In 1903, under the benefcent influences of Re-
publican rule, we raised 675 1000, 900 bushels Of
wheat; in 1899, SAT-, 900, 900 bushels, and for
eign countries were large buyers, Our exports
rising to 223, 900 900 and 2I7, 900 900 bushels
respectively.
But this year the iniquitous Democrats again
raised their heads and it looked as though there
would be large surplus of wheat all around.
Consequently prices fell to about IS cents at
Chicago. Then William Mckinley again ex-
erted himself in behalf of his country. EARLY
frosts nipped the French crop and drouth APP
pearedsin the northwest. The day Mr.. Nc
Kinley was re-nominated wheat advanced al
most to IS cents. But for the prospect that
Mr.. Mckinley would be re-nominated abundant
showers would have fallen in Minnesota and
the Dakotas and wheat would have been 20
cents lower. Who can doubt that politics
makes prosperity?

ST. JOHN AWAY FROM HOME.

The Independent Reform Press, published at
Pueblo, Colo, has the following to say OF our
candidate for congress:
Ex-Governor St. John, OF Kansas, is being
prominently mentioned as a suitable candidate
for congress from the Kansas Second. In per
sonal letter to a friend in his district, he says:
'If we all stand together, | believe we can win,
but it will be hard fight, and must be made
red-hot to the finish. The convention don't
have to nominate me to keep me in line,
will stand without hitching.' No better ex-
preston could be framed to emphasize the gen
eral fitness of the man for the position. The
country has suffered enough from the election
of that class of statesn Ell who will not stand
hitched unless they have the whole trough for
their stall, that for once it would be a recognit-
ion of true manhood and principle to nominate
and elect St. John to congress. No man in
Kansas is better suited to represent his district,
his state, or his country in that place than he

CONSISTENCY A JEWELL.

T. L. Brady, editor of the Lawrence World,
is a candidate for state senator from Douglas
county, and is publishing some very interest
ing matter relative to the sale Of the Lawrence
wire-nai mill to the trust by Mr.. Henley, an
other candidate for senator Brady charges,
and proves, that Henley has received salary
from the trust; that Henley is connected with
the trust. He says that some young men un-
dertook to start another factory, on a small
scale, but Henley stopped the enterprise by
buying off the machinist who was making the
machines for the factory, Brady makes other
serious charges against Henley, and we do not
doubt that all of his charges are true.
BUT
In writing up the history of the deal by
which the trust get the factory at Lawrence,
Brady does not mention the fact that j. D..
Bowersock chad finger in the pie', that he,
in fact, had as much to do with the deal as had
Henley. Indeed, he 'cut more ice" than
Henley, for Bowersock was made vice presi-
dent of the trust, drawing salary of $4,000
a wear. This shows concusively that Bower
sock had more to do with the deal and with the
factory than had Henley, else Henley would
be drawing $4,000 salary, too If Henley
was guilty of wrong-doing (and doubtless he
was J, Bowersock was equally guilty, or more So.
Of course, we don't expect Brady to publish
these things against Bowersock, because Brady
isn't running for congress (else he would), but
he shouldn't deny them when other papers
nub1ish them Be consistent.

MAYOR GLASS BACKBONE.

Some of the citizens of Garrett are deter
mined to have licensed saloons in this city, de-
spite the prohibitory law. 1t seems, too that
majority of the members of the city council
are in favor of these saloons, At the last meet
ing of the council, all ordinance was passed
giving the police judge power to collect a
monthly "hne" Oicense) from each jointist, or
liquor-seller in the city
We are more than pleased to be able TO say
that Mayor Glass promptly vetoed the ordl-
nance, thus showing his respect for law and
a determination to do his part toward main
tanning order in the city.
There were but two votes against the meas
IRE. but all of the councilmen were not present,
and we understand that an effort will be made
at the next meeting to pass the measure over
the MAYORS head. Whether they succeed or
not the mayor and two counclmen have proved
themselves true, law-abiding citizens, and they
are entitled to the hearty thanks of every par
ent of boys in this city. Their act cannot be
too highly commended

All Kinds of Dangers if the Constitution
Isn't for the Colonies.

New HAVEN, Conn, June, 26.-W Bourke
Cochran addressed the graduating class of the
Yale law school, yesterday, on the consequences
of the supreme court decision whether the con-
sttution extended over the colonies. If it should
decide that the colonies are under the constitu
ton, both parties, he believed would want to
get rid of them. If it should decide the other
way, he said, the President might remain Re-
publican magistrate only in the original repub-
lie, and his status range flom that in the de-
Tendencies to a despotic military ruler. In
deed, congress might remove the capital from
Washington and set it up outside of the bounds
of the power of the constitution which created
it. 1t could levy taxes, not for the benefit of
the governed, but for the benefit of the gov

The Second Funeral.

The quiet, subdued and orderly manner in
which the Democrats all over the country are
following Bryan is so different from the usual
Democratic habit that it can be explained only
OH the ground that they know they are follow
ing funeral procession.-San Francisco Call.
That is just exactly what is the matter with
the Bryan men, and it behooves them to be
quiet, orderly andsubdued. We are following the
funeral procession of the Declaration of indie
pendence so cruelty slain by Mckinley and his
gang. We are following the funeral procession
of 1000 American soldiers needlessly slaughtered
III an unjust war of criminal aggression. We are
following the funeral procession of many thousand
brave Afrikanders who have persisted in defend
ing their native land ag iinst mighty empire
which is waging a cruel of conquest and
subjugation We are mourning over a oonst-
tuition violated. and great Republic dishonor-
ed We are mourning because i'll Porto Rico

and dependent people We are mourning be-
cause at the seat of government Washington
and Jefferson have been forgotten and Hanna

name of Lincoln. We mourn because in the
name OF liberty, we are enslaving the weak; in
the name of justice we robbing the poor,
and III the name of religion we ale prosecuting

We mourn now, but the day of rejoicing is
near at hand. We will make noise enough in
November, don't fear. When Bryan is elected
and the country is redeemed from private syn
dicates and public plundercrs, the people will
rejoice and be exceeding glad When we cause
cruel and unjust to cease when we bring
home fighting men from foreign lands,
when the American flag becomes an emblem OF
freedom in ;tead of slavery--when it is loved in
stead Of hated throughout the earth-when it
proclainls liberty to the captive and self-govern

mourning cease, and we will add our shouts of
victory TO the joyful acclamations of freedom
loving men who have been redeemed, regener

On Friday last the school at
Central closed after q term of

of this length fills the law and pre-

such term is a rank injustice to

from the county has certainly not
been exhausted for the trustees arc
not extravegant in their expenoi-

they may have the color OF law for
using this money for other pur.

they have not the moral right and
the sooner our trustees wake up TO
the fact that all the money set
apart for school purposes by the

than maintaining school so long
