York fits nicely into the situation which
is now developing. For instance, it is no
longer denied that the Boer war and the
sympathies of a large part of the Ameri-
can people is with the struggling repub-
lies of South Africa is to play an indi-
rect bnt an important part in campaign.
President Mckinley is accused, though
unjustly, of being a sympathizer with
Great Britain. But Governor Roosevelt,
himself of Dutch extraction, is known as
a friend of the Beers.
According to the gossip in administra-
ton circles, the President has quite
set his heart upon having Roosevelt on
the ticket, and as the President is conced-
ed to be in supreme command of the Rep
ublican party this year the chances ap-
pear to be that he will have his way alb
out it. If the President continues af his
present opinion till the convention meets
at Philadelphia, he can easily force the
nomination of Roosevelt. In fact all he
viii have to do will be to keep hands off,
for the Republican party is eager enough
to draft the young governor of the En-
pire state and could not be restrained
therefrom by anything save the positive
declaration of Mr.. Roosevelt that he
would not accept
From all sections of thecountry come
cries for Roosevelt, and President McKin-
ley. who is admittedly as good a politician
as the country holds, has perceived this
side Of public opinion and is anxious to
run with and not against it 1t is even
conceded in administration circles that
if President Mckinley were to die or step
aside, the Republican party would n0mi-
nate Roosevelt for President almost as
unanimously as it now stands ready to
-enominate the President
The simple meaning of this is that the
strongest republican in the country next
to President Mckinley himself is Govern
or Roosevelt, and the President recogniz-
ing this fact, wants the governor for his
running mate.

Miss Dora Donald, who has become
known as the teacher of Miss Linnie
Haguewood, has achieved an honor of
which all Iowan' can be proud. She
has been elected to organize and super.
intend school for the blind in South
Dakota The young state of the north
west has hitherto sent its blind to the
Iowa college for the blind at Vinton,
bu, with its increased population it
has wisely decided to build and main
tain school of its own. Miss Donald
who has been selected by the South
Dakota Board of Charities for tits i'm
portant work formerly lived at Corning
in Adams county. She accepted a
position in the kindergarten depart
ment at Vinton and her work was soon
marked. When Linnie Haguewood be-
came prominent, Miss Donald was as
signed as her teacher, a place she has
filled 50 acceptably that she has made
an Interstate reputation as an edu-
Gator of the blind. AS the Vinton
Eagle says, through the efforts of Miss
Donald, Linnie Haguewood has been
lifted from darkness into light. Miss
Donald has devoted four years OF her
time to this one pupil, not for Miss
Haguewood alone, but for the cause of
the Education of the blind, that is, in
order to discover and to demonitrate
how educa alton can be applied to tie
afflicted. A competent teacher will
take charge of Miss Haguewood ,unGer
Miss Donald's supervision, while the
latter is organizing the South Dakota
school, which will be located at Cary
Cedar Rapids Republican.

pa,rvlue IN New zealand.

In recent issue of Farming Mr..
A. Ruddick, who went to New Zealand
from Canada in the fall of 1898, as
dairy commissioner for that portion of
Her Majesty's dominions, gives very
interesting account of dairying in that
country. The expansion of the indus
try there is along the line of butter
making rather than of cheese making
and it is in this particular that we
may look upon New Zealand as
competitor in the British market.
The climate and conditions there
seem to be we'll adapted for
carrying on dairying successfully,
and with comparative ease to the dairy
man. 1t is rarely necessary to house
or provide feed for cattle during the
winter, and about the only thing the
dairyman has to do is to milk his COWS
and see that they have plenty of pas
ture.
There are two references In Mr.. Rud-
dicks article that are we'll worth con
sidering in relation to the industry here
He points out that the manufacture Of
!, butter is carried on in large centra
creamerles, with number of skin

An Un.ought Pardon,

Among the stories of that form r
governor of Texas familiarly know u
as Sam Houston is more than one
amusing tale.
There was financial agent of the
penltentiary who had warmly opposed
the election Of Governor Houston, but
was particularly anxious to retain his
own pleasantly lucrative position. Con-
sequently the governor was soon in re-
ceipt of a petition in which the mans
years of faithful service and special
qualifications for the place were set
forth in glowing terms by himself.
The governor sent for him and said
gravely, ut appears from this petition
that you have been in the penitentiary
eight years."
II have" was the reply.
"And during that time you have per-
formed faithfully every duty that has
come in your way to the best of your
ability?'
81 have" answered the agent, his
courage swiftly rising.
"Then, SIR" said the governor, with
the air Of one comforting a priceless
favor, 81 pardon you outw-Youth's
Companion.

SHOOTING OUT THE LIGHTS.

An Occasion When the Old Ranch
man Saw the Trick Done.
According to western stories" said
a former ranchman. lone of the favor

er saw it done but once, but the incl
dent made sufficient impression on my
mind to last me for life. 1t was at
Benton. n small camp on the old Stake
Plain trail, in northeastern New Mext-
co. | was staying there over night
with couple of cattlemen, and we
naturally gravitated to the only resort
in town, sort of combination Of bar
and gambling house, In rough one
story building. containing good sized
single room.
1.-THE bar was ON one side, and on
the other were two or three Mexican
monte tables, over each Of which were
several large coal oil lamps in wall
brackets. In the center Of the place
was u chandelier containing three
more, altogether giving good deal Of
light. We, We're sitting at one side

half dozen drunken cowboys. headed
by well known ranchman named
Bill Wells.
"'rhe crowd We're out for excitement
and didn't care how they got it. They
took several drinks and then clustered
around one of the monte tables. In a
few moments Wells insisted upon max
ing Il bet over the limit. to which the
dealer objected. If you don't turn for
that bet. Ill shoot out your blankety
blank lights" bawled the ranchman.
The leemlt ez feety dollar said the
Mexican dealer. and the words were no
sooner out of his mouth than Wells
and his gang pulled their six shooters
and began blazing away at the lamps
about % or 30 shots were fired, and
almost at the outset the place was in
complete darkness. OF course there
was stampede, but remember being
surprised that | had heard no crash
of glass. Half an hour later l went
back and found the place lit up as
brightly as ever Wells and his cow
boys having been taken away by
friends. The roof was full of holes,
but not single lamp had been hit.
