"Generai Funston vindicated," is
the beading of many articles now-a-
days. Why does General Funston
need vindication Because he execnt-
ed two Fiiipinos who were caught
numbering American guards whom
they had captured and bound The
portion Of country in which this in
cident occurred was without govern
ment except such as was exercised by
the military. If General Funston
had not executed these natives would
be have been doing bis duty to his
flag? Would he have been fulfilling
the oath he took on entering the
military service of his country :?
Would he not have been condemned
even more had he let these murderers
of bis countrymen and comrades go
unpunished What sort of justice is
in a country, or what sort of people
inhabit it, where a man needs to be
vindicated for doing his duty in sup
porting the flag of his country and
uphoIding the dignity Of his govern
ment? But one can expect anything
from persons who see no harm in the
murder of their own countrymen,
but all sorts of crime in the killing
of those caught red-handed in such
acts of dastardly murder. Fortuna.
tely, General Funston needs no vindi-
cation in the minds of all but q pitt
able few of his fellow citizens.

Mininu Notes,

Messrs. j. M. Kinyon and II. Hut
Crimson spent few days last week on
the east side of the county exploring
mineral lands. They found several
fine prospects and brought back with
them several specimens of lead and
jack.
Mr.. Brumfield who lives on the
eleven o'clock run in the eartern
part Of the county started to blast
out place for a milk house, recently,
run into fine body of jack and lead
and will continue to develop il.
Work continues on the Anna Lee
mine in the south part Of the county.
The Mccormick boys are stayers
when it comes to prospecting and
voting the Republican ticket.
Good prospects for lead and zinc
have been found in sections II and IL,
2s-18 by Ohio people. Palmer con.
tinues to lease all the mineral land he
can get on the IL o'clock run for q
Pennsylvania syndicate. Their be-
longings now are upwards of ten
thousand acres.
A great deal of prospecting is be-
ing done in Cedar Greek township
with some good results.
The mining interest continues to
grow over on Beaver and some very
fine prospects are being developed.
Somc Of the best mineral land in
in that section is owned by 8. j.
Williams, j. X. McHaffie and A. C..
Kissee.
Some good specimens Of ore have
been found northeast of Taneyville
recently and the prospects will be
further explored ct an early date.
G. A. Ballou, Of Springfield, has &C
quired $500 acres Of mineral land on
the 10 and IL o'clock runs. He has
been prospecting this land since last
December and is well pleased with
the outlook. He has associated him
self with eastern capitalists to thor.
oughly Develop this ground. In con-
versation with him be ia satisfied that

Judge J. B. Rice who resides on
Short creek in the south part Of the
county has the finest mineral pros
pect in his territory. Mr.. Ballou
who is a mining expert has examined
this prospect and says it is undoubt-
edly the finest in the county.

Some of the incidents Of the recent
st. Louis strike are q libel Oh civiiiza-
ton aud disgrace to the city and
state. For instance, when lot of
bipeds calling themselves men attack,
maltreat and tear the clothes of a
working girl simply because she
rode on a street car to reach her
home which was too distant for her
to reach on foot, can anything more
disgraceful we'll be imagined. Incl
dents like the above are intolerable
and must be suppressed, even if, in
order to do so, every labor orgsniza-
ton concerned should have to be
forcibly disbanded. Such acts of
outlawry, violence and indecency as
have been witnessed in St. Louis are
the very worst things for organized
labor that could have occurred. Pub
lie opinion will not long tolerate an
organization that tolerates lawless-
ness and violence in pursuit Of its
aims. The safety and interests of
the whole people are superior to the
interests Of any class, and must DO
conserved at any cost.

The old mans head was white as
snow, his form was gnarled and bent
his steps were wobbly, short and
slow as back and forth he went; his
heart however was light and free, his
eyes oft shone with kindling mirth,
when with his grandson on his knee
before the CHEEKY hearth, he told the
lad Of days gone by when he was
young and blithe and strong, the fire
of manhood in his eye and muscles
like a thong-'way back in nineteen
hundred. He told the kid Of hunt
and chase full many q wonderous
tale, and saw the pleasure in his face
rise like coming sail; he told him of
his fishing sprees, as many as full
twice a score-they never failed his
ear to please and bring request for
more. The tale he oftinest told the
lad was Of q bilious man he knew
who always felt so mortal bad that
everything he saw looked blue-way
back in nineteen hundred. The fell
low cussed the times, the laws, but
most of all the trust, and gold de-
clared to be the cause which would
our country's welfare bust; and up

ITO ssubsoil for grain crops. With the
low price OF the cereals the increase
must he very considerable to pay cost
OF the extra work. The work OF Sub
.soiling is,very. great, the subsoiler hav-
ing ito he hauled by from four to Blk
horses. according to construction OF the
subsoil. There are however some To-
calities where subsoiling for grains
will pay. This will depend on u good
many circumstances that cannot be
pointed ont specifically. For in
stance there are subsoils that are not
hard ito stir mp. There are farms
where the arrangements are such that
! the men and horses have idle time,
and in such cases the subsoiling will
not be very expensive. Then too we

sections OF country where the rainfall
is fairly good and the sections OF
country where the .aridity is SO great
that there is little or no water to hold.
1t lis believed that .snbsoiling is more
effective where the rainfall Is fairly
good than where the rainfall is very
slight. This is because the suhsoiilng
makes 1t possible for the ground to,
hold more water and a part Of the
heavy precipitations is caught and held

Of the last few years,
1t is reported that there is quite a

This is to be commended, for by such

1t will be possible to prevent inferior

A writer says that Florida suffers

killed large quantities OF early fruits

were extensively destroyed. In the
