Obituary.

Died-February IL, 1900, between
Ironton aud Middlebrook. James A.
Holt; was born at Coble's Mill, Doug
lass county. Mo-, March 2, 1877. He
was married to Miss Sadie Sharpteen
at March II, 1897. They made their
home at Little Rock, Ark, and from
there they went to De Soto. He went
back to Arkansas and worked awhile
and concluded to quit there and go
into the restaurant business. When
he made his last trip on the road he
came in sick with a chill, and was
only sick a short time when he was
taken down on the 9th and died the
11th. His brother, Oddra, started
on their way he breathed his last. He
put both arms around his brothers
neck and laughed and told him he
didn't care to die. He was coming
here to visit his wife and relatives and
return to their home in Arkansas, but
the message came that he was dead.
How sad; so unexpected. But God
knows best. There is a work for US
all that we know not. Weep not,
dear wife, he is not only dead, but
sleeping in that sweep sleep, where
we all hope to cross the tide and meet
him on the other shore. He leaves a
wife, a broken hearted mother, two
sisters and two brothers to mourn his
departure and host of friends and
relatives. He was fair young man
and was liked by all who knew him.
Lovely young man, how brief thy stay,
Short and hasty was thy day;
Ending soon thy journey here
Pain and grief no more to hear.
At home he is missed,
Among friends he is missed,
The world who knew him is sad,
But the thought that angels Ger him hover
Is thought that makes US glad.
A FRIEND.

BARNUM'S road to wealth lay through
the proneness of humankind to being
humhugged, and his field of operations
was the boundless realms of credulity.
He died rich, and famous in a certain
way, but the spirit which brought him
success was not inferred with his
bones. Gaping -mouthed, unreasoniug
humanity swallows fraud after fraud.
gulps down fake after fake, and is
never satisfied. For weeks and months
the papers, big and little-the leaders
and the yawpers-have given great
space to a reverend gentleman who is
to get out for one week a daily journal
as Jesus would put it forth if He were
in charged 1t is said. in the adver-
tisement of this utterly inane and in
defensible-as well as sacreligious-
project, that more than three hundred
thousand copies of the paper for the
week in question have been subscribed
and paid fort just now we don't care
to 90 into a discussion of the monu-
mental gall of the man attempting
even if the attempt be in good faith
to impersonate Him who sought the
quiet by-ways and did His work mod
estly; who did not seek the splendid
amphitheatre to proclaim, through the
blare of trumpet and the blaze of pag-
cant, His doctrine of Peace on earth
good will toward men," We are led,
however, TO speculate upon the prob
able usufruct to the owners of the pa
per who have loaned it to the rev.
erend gentleman's unique enterprise.
How many of the temporary 100000
subscribers will stick after the week
of Holy Publication? How many ere
ligious" advertisements will result?
What abiding prestige among the
brethren will the paper be given? We
may rest assured that all these things
have been taken into consideration by
the worldly publishers who direct its
course and build its fortunes all the
year round. The possibilities are
great-co-extensive with the worlds

into the enticing domains of Vacuous

..It is a shameful and sinister re-
proach." says the Washington Post.

SOME extraordinary things in con-
nection with the Republican attempt
at government by assassination in Ken
lucky are being developed. The sud-
den arrest of a number of Taylor's
friends and associates for the murder
of Goebel, and the would-be Governors
that it is his determination to shield
them at all hazards. If he was not
particeps crinlsntS his subsequent &C
tions have no meaning. 1t is interest
ing to note them. Among the latest
retary of state on the Republican tick
ct, and Davis, the capitol watchman,
them with completely in the assassina-
ton. did not give themselves up like
honest and guiltless men would have
done, but fled to Taylor, who protected
them from arrest with his militia, al
lowed them to disguise themselves in
military uniforms aud with false
boards. and sent them, with com
pany of militia guarding them. on
board a train bound for his mountain
Gibraltar. When taken by the sheriff
of Fayette county from their conceal
ment and their guardian militia. and
landed in the Lexington Jail, these
culprits, Powers and Davis, had on
their respective persons paper from
Bill Taylor pardoning them for the
crime of aiding and abetting in the
assassination of William Goebel. Tay-
lor, the man that signed those bogus
pardons. is as guilty, if circumstautial
evidence avails anything, of conspiring
to assassinate Governor Goebel as is
either Powers or Davis. Under the
law of conspiracy, he is as guilty of
murder as the miscreant who fired the
rifle that killed Goebel."

A COUPLE of months ago Mckinley
said in his message that it was ':our
plain duty to abolish all customs tar
ifs between the United States and Por-
to Rico and give her products free ac-
cess to our markets." Last week, af-
ter having been seen by the trusts and
other plethoric contributors to the
Republican campaign fund, he sent
word to the House through Mr.. Brom-
well of Ohio that he .searnestly de-
sired" that this recommendation of his
message should be disregarded by
Congress! And the Republican mem
bers of the House-all save six-were
whipped into the traces and made to
vote for bill imposing duty upon
all articles of produce shipped from
the island into the United States and
vice versa. lit is unnecessary to sug-
gest to any intelligent mind" says the
Republican Philadelphia Public Ledger,
that this action of the House of Rep
resentatives, desired and urged by
President Mckinley, annuls that pro-
vision of the federal Constitution which
DEGREES that all duties, imposts, and
excuses shall be uniform throughout
the United States, and that the Porto
Rican measure is unrepublican, un-
American, and unconstitutional. The
passage of the bill is a political blum
der, if it does not prove to be some
thing worse; if it does not create so
strong an opposition among loyal, pa
triotic Republicans as largely to re-
duce Republican votes in November
next, when it is evident the Republi-
can party will neA all the votes it can
get So staunch and consistent a Re-
publican newspaper and administra-
tion organ as the Chicago Inter- Ocean
has explicitly declared that the Presi-
dents original, wise, apd just recon-
mendation in respect of granting Porto
Rico free trade with US was defeated
by certain trusts, in order to bar the
entrance of Porto Rican products into
our ports in competition with those
trusts" What a tangled web have
our Imperialistic friends woven for
their own up-tripping! The Great
American(D System of Protection is
fraud and a steal that is antagonized
by the greater iniqulty of Imperialism.
While these two deyils are fighting for
supremacy, perhaps Righteousness may
get in a lick for itself!

FROM the Aiger intrigue to the Ma
crum episode William Mckinley has
shown himsely to be the most helpless
swivel-joint that eyer wobbled about
in the presidential chair of the great
Washington, jefferson, jackson, Lin
coin. Who can recall a single instance
in his whole political career in which
he has taken firm point and stood for
his convictions like a man? Says the
Grand Rapids Democrat: The Nc
Kinley administration and its support
ers in congress are building up a fine
reputation for the United States. The
action of the House. at the instigation
of the president-who, in turn, was
whipped into it by the protection
pirates-in tariff taxing the people of
Puerto Rico. is not only unjust to a
starving people who welcomed our ar
mics with joy, but it is gross breach
of faith. When Gen. Miles issued his
proclamation to the Puerto Ricans on
landing his expedition. he said: Il
have not come to make war against
Puerto Rico, but against the Spanish
government, and Puerto Rico under
the American flag will enjoy the same
immunities as the citizens of the differ

Ali Hail to the Flag

When our embattled farmers stood
With their proud flag unfurled,
And in the name of freedom fired
The shot heard round the world,
The flag that thus they lifted highi
For all mankind to see,
Was christened in their patriot blood
The Banner of the Free.
Long wave the flag so nobly borne
By freemen staunch and true,
The finest flag in all the world,
The old Red, White and Blue.
God grant above no conquered race,
Whose rights unheeded be,
Shall float the flag we love to call
The Banner of the Free.

WITHOUT the Constitution the flag is

ed This hearing was before Justice Cas-
Ter few days ago and was stopped by
the attempt to releae Gibson by a writ
Of habeas corpus before Judge Jones At
the hearing this morning two witnesses
were put on for the territory, but Mr.
Gibson refused to cross-eXamine them
and as he had no attorney present, the
facts warranted the holding of him to
the grand jury and the bond was fixed at
500 and he was remanded to jail. Glib
son declared that ne would never eat a
bite or drink drop in life unless it was
forced into him; that he had made his
peace with his God, and he was upheld
in his efforts to kill himself by fasting.
He said he had not eaten since Sunday
and would not again. In explaining his
reasons for self-destruction he said that
the warrants against him were false. as
he had committed no crimes, and he pro-
posed compromise stating that he
would remain in jaiy-of his free will I'M
til he could sell his property and then
he would leave the United States or go
to the mountains of Colorado for the
benefit Of his health He will be taken
before the insanity board today by Dis

to Norman for treatment for his general
health, which is very bad and growing
worse in the confinement of the jail He
