THE OLD SETTLERS.
From Tuesdays Daily.

The annual reunion of the Old Set
Tiers association of Wapello county,
lis being held in Agency today. 1t is
a pleasant occasion for those who
have lived long in this part of Iowa,
and who have seen civilization and
culture grow up out of the wilderness.
The Courier has often spoken of the
debt of gratitude the present genera
ton owes the pioneers for the grand
manner in which they accomplished
the work laid out for them. 1t is to
be hoped that some OF the young PEG
pie who attend the reunion today will
find encouragement and inspiration in
the examples of their elders. Only
one thing will cast a shadow over tile
pleasure of today's meeting, and that
is the long death roll, embracing
some of the finest specimens of the
early settlers. Time has laid heavy
hand upon the pioneers during the
past year, and their ranks are thin.
ming fast. 1t is good to know, how,
ever, that they go in the ripeness OF
age, leaving as monuments behind
I them, the record of long and well.

Six good reasons why we should

LIST. we sell nothing but solid leath-
er shoes.
I'd. We buy from the best manu-
facturers, who have a reputation of
making good shoes, that we are a
practical shoemaker, which enables
us to be good judge of leather and
workmanship.
Sd. We repair the rips" on the
shoes we sell free of charge.
4th. We carry the assortment in
each line which makes it easy to be
suited here. ..

our word in every instance with new
pair if necessary.

After the foreign powers received
assurances of China's future good be-
hayior, it will be necessary to present
to the imperial government little
bill of expenses, probably itemized,
and duly accompanied with the re-
quest, "please remit" But China is
said to be bankrupt. The mandarins
have already bled her to desperation,
and any further effort to wrest taxes
from the heather will lead to violent
revolution. So what are the powers
to do?

Those who have peered into the
mystery of death by taking ether and
felt the nausea and pain of returning
consciousness are best able to appre-
ciate the discovery of DR.. Tuppier, of
France, who has found a method of
local anesthesia by which the patient
may retain consciousness while ur-
dergoing major surgical operations,
without feeling pain. The discovery
consists in the hypodermic injection
of cocaine in the region occupied by
the cerebro-spinal fluid in the spine
and manufacturing the body below
the point of injection. This method
is said to be unattended by the dam
gers and free from the consequences
Of chloroform or ether.

Governor Shaw illustrated well the
difference in the attitude of the two
great political parties on the Philip
pine question in his speech at Agency
Monday. He said that the democrat
tic party said. Hands OFF, and let
them settle it themselves" while the
republicans said, Hands on, and help
them settle it." 1t may be left to the
decision of any intelligent citizen
which attitude is the more philanthro-
pic and more conducive to the advance
of civilization and humanism.
