The FLY and the Universe,

The South rebels against Col. Bryan's
anti-expansion impolicy because the
South looks to Asia for new mar
kets for her products. Encour-
aged by the recent growth of the cotton
manufacturing industry in the Southern
States, the Southern expansionists hope
to see the day when all their cotton will
be manufactured at home and the sur
plus manufactured product sent to the
Philippines and China.
The other day the Hon. John F. Fitz-
gerald, a Democratic Representative in
Congress from Massachusetts, gave his
reasons for being an expansionist. He
said that the wealth of New England
comes, in large measures, from her manu-
features. At present these are subject
to an active competition on the part of
the South; a competition destined to in
crease. New England, also, must have
new markets and she finds them in Asia.
Thus the North and the South are
urged by the same need and instinct.
For both the path of prosperity leads
across the Pacific. Against the insistent
demand of intelligent self-interest the
daily anti-expansion splutter of Col. Bry-
an strikes with about as much effect as
n understood fly, walking on the cell
ing, has on tie cosmos.-New York Sun.

"About 5000 kegs aud barrels of Gu
pers, a small, sour berry resembling in
color and shape a green pea, are m
nually imported into the United States
from Spain and France" said a whole

diments in New York to the writer re-
Gently. "Capers grow on a bush, and
are extensively used by all classes Of
cooks in this country for garnishing
salads and making a sauce which is
usually served with boiled mutton and
other meats. There are four sizes of
capers. The smallest are commercially
known as nonpareils and the three 9th
err sizes are called capucines, capotes
and surfines. The smallest capers are
the most desirable and bring the most
money. Very few capers are imported
in glass. They are shipped to America
in kegs and barrels, holding from Is to
40 gallons Of the berries in brine or
vinegar. The work of bottling the ca
pers is done by the wholesale dealers"

Prairie Fire ExtjOuuisher.

The following is a good rule for a
prairie fire extinguisher: Take an old
header, take off the platform and gear
ing. Just use the wheels and axle and
sweep. Take a lot Of old carpet and old
sacks; fasten them along the axle so as
to drag the ground; have a two-inch gas
pipe just above the carpet; have pipe
full OF holes, and have two barrels of
water on the frame with short pipes con
Meeting with the other gas pipes. When
you sec a fire in your neighborhood just
hitch a team on your fire wagon and
make for the fire. With this you can ex-
tinguish more miles of fire than twenty
men in the o~ld-fashioned way of fighting
fire. If you have no header it can be
made with old mower wheels and a4x6
for a sweep. With a few of these ma
chimes in the country and properly used
they will save thousands Of dollars every
wear in hay and range-I. M. Rowland,

visited a Hindoo school in Madras.
The youngsters had been drilled into
the propriety of saying "Your royal

them, and when the heir apparent &C

1t is clear that we are not to know who
is to be the candidate for Woe president
on the Republican ticket until the con-
vention has met and balloted. Doubtless
had Roosevelt consented to accept the
nomination the question would have been
practically settled before the convention
met. But none Of the other gentlemen
mentioned has met with any such general
acceptance. Long is popular in the East,
but the West shows signs Of wanting a
candidate from that section, ana Dolliver
OF Iowa is arousing good deal Of en-
thusiasm in that quarter. Then Allison
is mentioned, but like Roosevelt, he will
probably not allow the use Of his name.
Indiana has a candidate in the person Of
Senator Fairbanks, who will command
the support of its delegation at least,
and there are others of more or less cshse-
quenoe.

Il is becoming clearer every day that
the st. Louis troubles will not be ended
until the governor of the state has called
out the militia and put the city prctically
under martial law. An organized, un-
trained posse Of citizens Is not competent
to contend with a situation such as exists
there. Drilled and disciplined troops,
yielding explicit obedience to their
officers, are the only effective remedy.
The st. Louis situation illustrates anew
the danger Of ternporizing with law
breakers. At the beginning Of the out
break a disciplined and resoiute body of
men could have restored order in very
short time, and at rmuch less expense OF
property and life than it will cost to do 1t
now. Each day has Intensified the pas
sions of the rioters and made additions to
their ranks, until now they practically
dominate the city.

cause be does not return to Kentucky and

against him for completely In the assassi-
nation OF Goebel. PROFESSIONALLY he
would stand better with the country at
large should he do so, yet there Is some
thing to be said In defence Of his refusal.
The Indictment against him was found
last April. While other indictments were
openly returned ON the 10Th Of that
month, however, the record Of the indfct-
ment against Taylor was concealed. Hear
ing report Of its existence, Gov. lay lor,
who was absent from the state at the
time, promptly returned and demanded
service Of any papers outstanding against
him. He was given no satisfaction be-

records Of the court indicated the filing Of
an accusing document. Later, when in
obedience to the decision OF the supreme
court he had surrendered the executive
office to Gov. Beckham, he went to In.

upon it was announced by the Goebelite

A CHIP OF THE OLD BLOCK.
Richard Yates, Son of the War Govern
OF OF Illinois.

Richard Yates, the Republican candi-
date for Governor Of Illinois, was born at
ia ckso nville, in that state, on Dec. 12,
1860. His father was Richard Yates, the
famous war governor Of Illinois, whose
unfaltering adherence to the cause OF the
Union is q matter of pride to all the
citizens Of Illinois, says the New York
Tribune. Mrs. Catherine Yates. the
widow of the war governor, Is still living.
and the devotion of her son to her has
often been remarked. A story to illus.
trate this loyalty Is told In connection
with his recent campaign for the nomina-
ton. He never in these speeches asked
the nomination because Of what his faith
or had done, but once in southern I'LL
nois, where he had been telling meet
ing of delegates why he wanted to be
elected governor, his voice suddenly gave
out and his eyes filled with tears.
II want," he said, after he had gained
his composure, .'among other things, to
take my old mother back with me to the
governors mansion in Springfield, where
she presided 10 years ago."
Richard Yates was educated ut Whtpple
Academy and ut Illinois College, both Of
which are at jacksonville. William j..
Bryan was also a student In both of these
Institutions at the same time with Yates,
though the latter was graduated from
college in 1SS0-one year before Bryan.
His Undergraduate days over, he began
newspaper work, and for time was city
editor OF the jacksonville Daily Journal
He left that paper to study law Mt the
University OF Michigan, but after two
years was compelled TO leave Ann Arbor
ON account of lack Of funds. After two
years more spent in newspaper work he
resumed his law course, and WAS GRADUATE
ed in 1884.
Returning to jacksonville, he began the
practice of his profession, and at once
took an active interest in politics. In
1885 he was elected city attorney. and by
reflections continued In that Office until
1891. In the following year the Republi-
cans nominated him for congressman at
large, but he was defeated with the rest
of the ticket. Two years later he was
although that county usually goes Dem o.
cratic. Mr.. Yates was strong supporter
of Mr.. Mckinley In the presidential cam
paign, and in June following the begin
Ing of the present administration he was
appointed collector of internal revenue
for the Sth district of Illinois.
Judge Yates Is u member OF the Metho-
dist Episcopal church and a teacher in
the Sunday school at jacksonville. He
has taken an active part in church affairs,
and Is at present serving as u delegate to
the general conference now in session In
Chicago. lie left the conference to attend
the Peoria convention which nominated
him, but returned at the earliest moment
possible. On his first temperance at
the Auditorium he was received with
great enthusiasm and hailed as 1.-THE
future governor of illinois,"
On Oct. 20, 1888. he married Miss Nellie
Wadsworth, who had been a student with
him at Illinois College. They have two
daughters.

The Maine woman's Christian Union
has standing committee In the interests
Of = new reformatory prison for women In
the State OF Maine. This committee is
composed of the following ladies: Mrs.
Hannah J. Bailey Of Winthrop. Mrs.
Helen Coffin Beotiy Of Pennington, and
Mrs. Clara Farweli OF Rockland.
They have issued the following state
ment relative to their work:
The tendency Of all penal work at the
present time IL toward the Improvements
Of thoee under its sentence, not 90 much
to punish a. to make better and to restore
to the State those who have fallen into
Woe and shame. The various jaiIs and
the State prison were built only for the
accommodation Of men. In the smaller
counties there are no special privileges
for the women, who must share In the
same toilet arrangements as the men.
At the State prison the women are not
locked up, at night, In their separate cells
as Is customary In many well ordered In
woman Is supplied with large airy room
furnished with double bed decorated
with it's white spread and pillow shams.
These women are ut the mercy OF prison
officials, never having been un1er the
care Of woman matron, as Is the custom
IN many susto8 ~ tut ptt1tHt tAhfos
For years. the philanthropic women OF
Maine have appealed to the state legisla-
tors to place Maine on more humane
plane by providing a matron for the care
Of the women at Thomaston. They have
always been met by the reply: There
are only few women there, and Maine
cannot afford the expense Of an addition
al salary for matron.'
Since there are "a officials connected
with the prison, all receiving pay from
the State, should mot one Of them, ~
least, be . woman who should have for
her duty the interests Of the women
there? We know that this Is the wish Of
all truly thoughtful men and women OF
Maine, and a. such we beg that this mat
ter may receive the attention 1t deserves.
The Importance OF q State reformatory
prison for women Is a matter which, 10 10
to be hoped, will be brought successfully
before the Maine Legislature, the coming
winter.
