dams who work. Writing from the
Crow agency in Montana, under
date Of August 9TH, he says that
for the first time in history tribe
Of the aboriginal race has taken a
contract to do manual labor and is
supplying another tribe Of redmen
with food. First, the Burlington
railway, in constructing a new
branch from its short line to Mons
tana into the Big Horn basin, is
employing Indian labor and has let
a grading contract to the Crows.
Secondly. the Crow Indians, who
have large wheat fields and fine
mill, have entered into a contract
with the United States government
to supply the neighborhing tribe OF
Cheyennes with -four. The Crows
have worked before with shovel
and grader and have constructed a
fine irrigation system for their own
farms. They have good flour
mill at the agency and are building
another at distant part of the res
ervation. They have sold much
farm produce annually for several
years to buyers in the country
round. and many cattle and horses.
They are rich in farms and flocks
and herds, but this is the first time
a government contract or railway
contract was ever let to an Indian
at least to "blanket Indian" ot
the mountains.

Governor Thomas was made to
say in an interview at Indianapolis
that Bryan will carry Colorado by
6o,ooo." In 1896 Bryan carried
this state by $4,000. The gov
ernor attributes the falling off to
the fact that those republicans who
were out OF line in 1896 are back
now because they are in favor of
McKinley's policy in the Philips
pines. Another reason is that the
trusts have control of the industries
and every man that has sold out is
in favor Of the trusts and the repub>
lican administration.

We presume there never was a
newspaper in any locality that gave
all the local news. 1t is often
that some one comes or goes that
the reporter does not see. 1t hap
pens that the family is missed sew
eral times and they get the impress
sion that the editor does not care
to mention them. This is a mis-
take. In most towns the local work
is the hardest work connected with
newspaper. A man may be a
good editorial writer, but fiat
failure on the local work, and vice
versa. Editorial material is obtains
ed by study, by reading newspapers
and sometimes by using the scis-
sors. Personals and local happen
ings can't be read and clipped from
other newspapers. 1t takes hard
work to gather local news items.
Most people take the home paper
to get the local happenings. Don't
be afraid to tell the editor or re-
porter that you have friends visits
ing you. There are lots OF people
who are interested in your friends.

the attack i'll the United States court
today, the time set for entering formal
order, denying application for Injunction.
and filed Il supplemental and amended
bill, for injunction to prohibit consoida-
ton. His grounds are that the defend
ants in resisting the previous applica-
ton, took the position that no authority
for consolidation existed, and none was
contemplated. and the Legislature has
since passed bill authorizing it. Judge
Waddill entered an order adjourning
further hearing to next Tuesday at Rich
mond and that in the meantime the
status of the Seaboard and Roanoke
railroad. under the said Legislative act,
shall remain as at present. This blocks

ion restricting it to firms employing union
la Dor.
Mr.. Hopkins replied that he would ac-
cept the amendment to show there was
no hostility to union labor.

Senator Shenan Dead.

Ex-senator John Sherman died at
his home in Washington city on last
Monday morning. He had been in
feeble health since the death of his
wife, and an attack of pneumonia
hastened his death. The funeral
services were held at his home in
Washington yesterday Rev. Mckay
Smith of st. Johns Episcopal church
conducting the religious exercises.
His remains will be inferred at Mans
field today by the side of his wife.
John Sherman was the greatest
man the republicans can boast for the
last quarter of a century. He orig
mated the policies and shaped the
destiny Of his party. He was the
uncompromising opponent of demo-
oracy and the strongest political ene-
our party ever encountered. In his
social relations, he was clean de-
cent man; genial gentleman; and
true and steadfast friend.
His is one of the Immortals Ohio
will ever boast. His memory will
be cherished as great Statesman
and good man while the republic
endures.
He was born in Lancaster, Ohio,
May 10 1928.

TALK of imperialism being impos 81
in this country is absurd. The stage
trappings of royalty are not needed.
President Mckinley today in his own
person unites in the Philippines, for
the government of ten millions Of
people, all powers, civil and military
legislative, executive or judicial. He
holds the life and liberty of all at
his beck or nod. He can and is des.
troying and confiscating property,
just as Julius Caesar did. If that is
not imperialism, pray what is it? The
same conditions prevail to a more
limited extent in Porto Rico. Des-
potism and oppression is mere mat
ter for the discretion of the President
when the Constitution is not the su-
preme law of the land. This is i'm
perialism pure and simple, and Presi-
dent Mckinley wants big standing
army to back it up.
