In his letter of acceptance President
Mckinley says that if this country had
not held the Philippines they might
have been turned over by Spain to
some other European power, Il thing
which could not be permitted. "But
why not?" asks the New World. "Why
should.this country object to such q
transfer? We can understand why
this country should have objected to
Spain's transferring any of her West
Indian islands to any other power.
They came within the Monroe doc
trine. But why should it object to the
transfer of certain islands off the
coast of Asia from one European pow
err to another?" The only true answer
is that the American trusts which con.
troll Mckinley wanted the islands for
their own benefit.

Rough Rider Roosevelt in his. letter
of acceptance says: 'To grant self
government to Luzon under Aguinaldo
would be like granting self-govern
ment to an Apache reservation" Ted.
dy forgets that. Dewey declared the
Filipinos are more capable of self-gov.
eminent than the Cubans. Is he, then,
in favor Of government for the Int,
ter? The island of Cuba approaches
nearer to the character of an Indian
reservation than Luzon, and congress
declared that it is and ''of right ought
to he free and independent" According
to Dewey there is greater reason that
Luzon should he free and independent.
and it will be, in spite of Teddy and
his tribe.

Sugar Orchard Mining Camp.

A very prominent feature OF the
pic mic at keener on the 9Th was
the display of ores made by the
miners of this section.
S. N. Rogers, of Springfield, Mo-,
who has charge of the Evening Star,
Baby Elephant, Little Star, Fair
Play and Big Five had an especially
fine collection including jacks, car
donates, silicates and lead, He has
been at work here eight months, is
practical miner, and knows that
Just little work is worse than
none; he is daily getting returns for
the money he is spending by placing
his mines in a position that will pay
as soon as transportation is availa-
BILE
The Virginia Jay owned by Byres
& Jones was well represented. The
Virginia Jay is on a paying basis at
present.
The Bisham lease also belonging
to Byres & Jones is a good mine,
producing lead and zinc.
Many other mines were represent
ed from other parts of the camp.
Mr. E. ]. Rhodes is taking out some
good ore on his land The specimen
he handed us cannot be surpassed,
and he has it in paying quantities.
Mr.. Bisha is building a seven room
residence that will when finished be
the best building in our little town.
Judge Cave of the firm of Sugar
Orchard Mining Co. is doing consid-
cradle work on the town site at tRs
place. The Judge is a hustler and
we think the right man in the right
place. S. N. Rogers and family of
Springfield are visiting Ed Holderby
and family of this place.

Several of the grandchildren were al
so present, making in all twenty-five
who gathered daily about the dining
table upon the lawn and in the family
room to enjoy the pleasure of one an
other presence. There was great joy
when TIE carriage rolled III with the alb
sent two which completed the family
circle. For how often a reunion of
such a large family is marred by the un-
avoidable absence of one member. The
entire family attended church on last
Sunday. The son, Rev. S. @. Miller,
preached.

is in the family, in the possession OF
Mr.. Miller, of Little Rock, the family
bible, two hundred and thirty years old.
Several years ago, when this bible was
committed by the grandfather, Samnel
Miller, to the grandson, Samuel G. Mil
Ter, he said, Il suppose, my son, that |
know more of the history of our family
than any living member of it. Every
Miller who ever read line in this old
book was a Presbyterian.
Near the natural bridge in Rockbridge
county, Virginia, stands a double log
house more than one hundred and fifty
years old, which was built by the North
Ireland ancestor, Samuel Miller. This
house is now owned by Mr.. Lackey, a
relative of Mrs. Miller, nee Lackey.
This ancestor built also church known
as the twelve cornered meeting
house." The first pastor was Rev. VIM.
Baldridge, noted divine of the early
days of Virginia. Adjacent to this old
family church building is the grave
yard, where lie the ashes of ancestors.
Some of the names engrafted on the
family tree are Lackey, Boggs, Wilson,
Leach, Gilmore, Mex night and others.

Tribute OF Respect.
"A precious one from us is gone,
A voice we loved is still;
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled

On the night of July 81, 1900, death
came and claimed the precious form OF
Mrs. M. A. Ruble. She was born in
Tennessee, September 20, 1850, Was
married to V. E. Ruble in Jluy 1894.
Her sickness was not of very long dura-
ton, and all that care and medical atten-
ton could do for her, was tried to stay
the hand or death. In vain; the sum-
mons had come, and one more sweet
spirit is gone. As a mother she was
kind and loving; as a wife, true and de-
voted. She was always kind and obllg-
ing to those around her. She leaves a
husband, children and many friends to
mourn her loss.
O, how we'll miss her when we visit
the old home. But nay we would not
call her back to this world of sorrow and
suffering;
"For we know the pains of death are past
Labor and sorrow cease;
And, life's long warfare closed at last,
Her soul is found in peace

Although not enough particulars
have been supplied to the public to
decide what is fact and what is hc-
ton in the current report, there is
enough concurrence in what is said
to make it certain, that discoveries
at the Olympia mine, Iimmy's Creek,
Marion county, will make it one OF
the very best properties in the field.
The report it is true, has to do with
a showing made by the drill, and
this showing to become established
must be repeated, if the suspicion is
to be avoided Of having only struck
a crevice. But it is iniavor of the
property that il is already character
lied by a four feet outcrop ofsilicate,
which has been traced on the prop
crty for three-iourths of a mile; and
the big strike OF jack would only be
in keeping with the remarkable body
OF silicate.
