The heart Of the rugged old phil
anthropist was touched, and he re-
solved to do and to die in the cause
of human liberty. With an earnest
born of conviction, and love Of his
fellow creatures that was Christ-like,
he went forth needing the call to
duty as the voice Of God. By the
sacrifice Of his life at historic Har-
per's Ferry, he blazed the way for the
Emancipation, when

The Negro race owes to John
Brown a debt of gratitude that can
never be fully paid. The observance
of his birthday anniversary is a
small recognition Of the sacrifice Of
his life. And yet it serves us to per-
petuate his memory. AS long as
good men are loved and great deeds
remembered, John Browns name
and fame will live in the hearts Of the
tOiling sons Of Ham. Like the beau
tiful sound wave, the impulse Of a
good deed can never die. We should
see to it that the birthday Of this
hero and martyr is celebrated in a
way commendable to the race, and
worthy of him whose
Body lies mouldering in the grave,
While his soul goes marching on"

DEMOCRATS NOT IN THE RACE
Idaho Tor Shoup ard Mekinley-Mr. Bates so
Sizes Up The Situstjon.

Washington, an. 30. T. w
Bates, of Boise, Idaho, has been il
the city during the past week, and
while disclaiming any active par.
ucipation in the politics of Idaho,
made some interesting prophecies
to local reporters who besoueh hi
him for interviews. He declares
his positive belief that Senator
Shoup will be re- elected to his pres.
emf position and that President
Mckinley will have no trouble in
getting the electoral vote of Idaho.
In the Washington Post Mr.. Bates
is quoted as saying:
Senator Shoup suits our people,
Tor he has been faithfr.. to every
trust, and, though there may spring
up other candidates, he will be
chosen to succeed himself.
80 far as the democrats are con-
cerned, they are out of the race in
the west, particularly if Colonel
Br} an is nominated. Every inter
est in our state is prosperous, and
the voters do not care to risk a
change. Sheep aud cattle men
who were formerly democrats are
almost to a man IN favor of repub-
lean policies now, and they are
especially pleased with the present
administration"
Mr. Bates is full of enthusiasm
for a new railroad line that he ex.
poets to construct from Boise to
Butte, Mont. This road, he says,
will open up new country of mag.
nificent resources- mineral, agri.
cultural and pastoral.

Do You Want a Calendar =?

The biggest-and best-caleudar ever
issued by any American railroad is now
being distributed by the Burlington route.
1t has twelve sheets, one for each month
of the year. On each sheet is striking
illustration of some feature of the Bur
lington's service or of the territory
reached by its lines-the government
fast mail running at full speed; tourist
car on its way to California; engine 1891,
the largest passenger engine in the world;
library car; a compartment sleeper; the
Burlington station at Omaha; a dining
car; a monster freight train; Estes Park
Colo; the plunge bath at Hot Springs, S.
D., Yellowstone Falls, etc.
The drawings from which the pictures
were made are by Louis Braunhold, of
Chicago, und cost several hundred dol
lars.
The size of the calendar is ~ IS,
The dates are in big type which can be
read at distance of so feet. For bust
ness offices the Burlington calendar is
simply invaluable.
Purchased in large quantities, the
calendars cost the Burlington Route ~
cents a piece. With postage, packing
etc, they represent an investment OF
about IS cents. Our price is IS cents--Ic
cents less than cost Write for one

merchant princes and our eminent
professional men, our COLLEGE
presidents and our great manu-.
lecturers, and you will find them
to be not biought up in rich men 5
houses, but the children of the
poor, who did not hewail their fate
IN having to work. When most
OF these men began their career, a
poor clerk ship was something they
were very glad to get.
But Mr.. Bryan, if he has his
way, will fix it so there shall be
no poor Clerks, but only well-to do
proprietors. How will he do this?
One way is by free coinage of sill
yer. That means financial ruin
and national dishonor. Another
way is by turning tail in the
Philippines That is a craven
policy no red blooded American
will approve. Another way is by
declaiming against trusts, and
this Is something anybody can do
and verybody is doing. How to
control the trusts, how to crush
monopolies, Mr.. Bryan do sn't
know, and he is the last man in
the world that is likely to find out.
We can't have free trade, we cam
have free silver. We can't destroy
the trusts with rhetoric and elocu-
ton. This ran only be done with
well.considered legislation, which
partisan cries have nothing to do
with. The only thing left for Mr..
Bryan is to infame the prejudic S
of the unsuccessful and the dis
Contented - which is the last resort

London, July 9.-The secretary of state
for India, Lord George Hamilton, has
received the following from the viceroy
of India, Lord Curzon:
''The rainfall has been fairly general
this week in Bombay, Deccan, Borar,
Khandeish, the central province, the
Gangetic plain and the PunJab, but has
been much below the general average
for these tracts, except in southern Dec
can. Little or no rain has fallen in Raj
pootana, Guxerat and Central India.
''The cholera mortality continues high
in Bombay. The mortality there was
appalling. The number Of persons re-
ceiving relief is 6,O13, ,OOO."
The governor Of Bombay telegraphs to
the foreign office as follows:
''There We're 10, 800 deaths from cholera
and $500 fatalities in the famine district
during the last week in June, the total
deaths among the numbers on the relief
works in the British district were 8, 1924.
The number on the relief works is in
creasing rapidly in consequence of the
drouth. The number OF gratuitous re-
lief is increasing throughout the affected
