THE FARMERS INDEPENDENCE.

The farmer doesn't have to solicit
the patronage of anyone. He doesn't
have to enter into competition and
strive with his noighbor like mer-
chant; he doesn't have to wrangle and
warp the truth for a living like
others; he doesn't have to depend on
donations reluctantly doled out, like
many ministers; in short he can be
the most independent man on Gods
green earth if he manages his affairs
in a business like manner. He has
more time and opportunities for inn
proving his mind, he has less allure
ments for corrupting his morals, and
his occupation is conducive to the
highest development OF his physical
powers; he can he on intimate terms
with his own family, at peace with
the world and he can worship God
under his own grapevine and apple
tree, none daring to modest or make
him afraid,

1t will not be many years before the
government is relieved of the respon-
sibility and expense OF conducting
and maintaining Indian reservations
throughout the west. There are those
who contend that the race is not dy-
ing out with any great rapidity, but
figures from the Siletz reservation near
Corvallis, Or, show convincing evil
dence to the contrary. In 1856 six
thousand Siletz Indians were installed
upon this reservation, one OF the most
healthful locations in the Willamette
valley; today, after an interval OF forty
four years, there are only 300 who
draw upon Uncle Sam for rations.

Kansas has made another record.
Not content with plastering the walls
OF her state buildings with cancelled
mortgages; not content with doubling
her bank deposits since 1896; Kansas
now has but one inmate in the state
poor farm. Dining and bed
rooms that few years ago were crowd
ed with the idle, with the hungry,
and with the poorly clad, now echo
and reecho the solitary tramp of their
one sole inmate, who is without kith
or kin, and who is too old and feeble
to work. But one sad relic remains
in the Kansas poor house, to remind
the taxpayers of the days when its
free soup, free bed and free clothes
were donated to those who were COM
PEELED to idleness under a preceding
administration, and under its policy
Of destruction to all American indus
tries, both of farm and factory.

The annual school election takes
place Saturday, the same being June

THE SOUTH AFRICAN WAR,


The collapse Of th war in South
| Africa has come N tartling swift
ness and complete .. The inevita-
BILE has been in SIGHT r some weeks
past, but expectation fastened upon a
long and desperate struggle in the diff
ficult country about and beyond the
Vaal river. Pretoria was capable OF
making a stout resistance. Fortified
as it was, the Beers, fighting as they
fought in the earlier campaigns at
Natal, might have held out even
against overwhelming odds for days
or weeks and made the final act OF the
war its bloodiest record They have
chosen the wiser part OF accepting a
certain defeat without its fearful price,
Unless made desperate by upspeak-
able wrongs, or IN terror OF fate
scarcely less tolerable than death
awaiting them, a whole people will
not immediate itself for principle. 1t
is asking too much of human nature.
Ever since the British army began its
terrible advance, sweeping the country
with mighty arc as irresistible as a
wall OF living fame, the Beers have
looked fate in the face. By the most
desperate valor they could not hope to
conquer, only to postpone the sure
event. That delay they must purchase
by the offering oil their lives, their for
tunes and the future OF their families.
The choice which they have made
does not reflect upon valor that they
have proved so glorious!y. 1t is a
sorrowful but not humiliating part,
1t is the election of wisdom.
Might has prevailed. There is no
need now to stir again the controversy
over the issues that precipitated this
most unhappy conflict We may
render to the vanquished the tribute
that all the world pays gladly to love
,f independence and to intrepid cour-
age. These little states have made
such Il resistance as even their enemies
respect and praise, and history will
match it with the famous deeds OF
ancient days. In that they have been
forced to submit to the rule of another
power, and must remain colonies OF
the empire, with their great dream of
separate nationality shattered forever,
they will have and do have the SYM
pathy of millions.
Fate has brought them, however,
nothing which they as freeman need
to dread. Their conqueror is, next to
the, United States, the freest and fair
est nation in the world. No pains
and penalties, we may believe, will be
visited upon them that do violence to
honor.
