The Inauguration of Mr.. Mckinley
on the 4th of next month will be ac-
companied with greater pomp and
SplendOr than ever was witnessed at
aU Inauguration before. The appro-
priation of the peoples money fer
that event runs away up in the hun
dreds of thousands. Even King Ed
wards coronation did not cost more.
But if have imperialism we must have
the trappings that go with it, you
know. 1t comes high, but the people
voted for it.

Possibly the fellows who boast that
they shave no fear of militarism in
this country will argue that Presi-
dent Mckinley does not want an extra
increase of $4,000 men in the regular
army for the pdrpoSe of real war, but
just to provide fat official places for a
few more faVOriteS.

A Hotel Wanted.

Chickasha needs and wants a
iirst-class hotel, something in
keeping with the city and its
future prospects, and the needs
justify the most sauguine wishes
of any one. The hotels, lodging
and boarding houses are Overrun,
and the cry is still for more. A
first. class hotel of good dlmen-
sion would attract the best trade
all the time. Our real estate men
are ready to make liberal dona.
tions to any one who will come
here and put up the building. 1t
will be the best property in a
city amply able to support it to-
day and one that is growing all
the time. The city has a popula-
ton of4,oOO today and will double
that in the next two years.

sary, Secretary Hitchcock will call

possible has been done to facilitate
the opening Of the lands, and it is

AS matters now stand the reserva-

If the allotting agents can keep

AauNA1po INTERVIEWED

AGUMALDO INTERVIEWEi
New York, Jan. 27.-The World
publishes what it claims to be a vel
authenticated interview with Agui
naldo, obtained by an American A.
agent Of Carlos Rubino, a promI'
nent merchant in Manila. II was
forwarded here through the mall.
Aguinaldo was found in the Fill
pino capital by Senior Ruguinos'
agent "My letter to AguinaIdo,"
said the agent, twas carefully seru-
tinized by him. As they we're from
those who he knew to be his truest
friends he receiyd without hesita-
ton. / remained there FOR four
days, and was the recipient OF his
full confidence and had from him
the most uEreserved expression OF
his sentiments and purposes, as well
as his ideas concerning the condi-
tion Of his country and the great
struggle now going on there. l
was astonished at his knowledge OF
the history Of the United States
and its great statesmen. The sub
ject Of amnesty was gone over very
thoroughly. l asked him if be
would accept amnesty offered by
the United States. He replied:
"No; / will not accent amnesty.
/ would not trust them. ! have
not forgotten the profession Of
friendship and of support given me
by Dewey and Otis and all Of them,
and sly "Wildman." My army
fought with and for them, to defeat
the Spanish, and promises most
solemnly given that we vel . to have
independence we're made. All these
solemn promises have been repudi-
ated by them all. No; amnesty
means slavery and obedience to the
will OF Mckinley"
"How about the peopie;" asked.
''Do you believe the condition OF
your people would be improved III
they accepted amnesty now offered
themw
NO." he replied, "to accept
amnesty means shame, infamy ,slav-
cry, degradation. Personally it
means Imprisonment for me. What
else am 10 expect, and what for
my poor people but serfdom? What
would your forefathers have said Of
George Washington had he accept.
ed amnesty from George Ill7 He
foughl f,om l776 TO 1882, and all
offers Of amnesty we're treated with
scorn. He was right. You ask me
what l want. reply liberty; the
right Of the Fiiipinos to govern
themselves government Of our
own.'
"But" said 1, "here are assur-
ances-7
assurances and promises" be
interposed with great warmth,
"gi~en only to be disregarded and
repudiated. ! tell you l will never
trust them. Nor will my people.
Never, No say to them that their
amnesty vii not be considered. Ny
people would no longer respect me
we're / to do So
Then 1t may be war for many
years, . I said, "you must know
that the American government is
strong, powerful and rich"
"Unquestionably," he replied.
"And it may be long and terrible
struggle for liberty, But until the
Filipino nation shall have q govern
ment OF its own this war will 60 on.
I believe il there were a change Of
administration we would gain our
freedom. We will have a republic
patterned mainly after that OF the
United States. The original system
is admirable, tut not as admins

How to View the Sculpture at Buffalo.
1t would seem we'll 70 emphasize
this fact, tDat the general scheme OF
statuary was treated as unit as to
It's scale, so as really to form part OF
the exposition as decoration OF the
same and not as individual statues or
groups--because to many Of the sclllp-
tors this was entirely 0Dew idea.
With most OF them the statue or
group had always been modelled for no
particular place and TO look equally
we'll 10 the parlor, park, or museum
and to subordinate the sculpture To
the general artistic purpose, and to
make 1t an integral part OF big
artistic scheme was to many new
experience and not an easy one; but
it it tair to say that the work has
been carried on with enthusiasm and
with every endeavor to subordinate
Individuality for the sake: of general
harmony. Therefore, when judging
the sculpture at the Pan American
Exposition. to be perfectly fair u
the individual sculptor, it will bt
necessary to consider the genera
effect, and the success of each indi
vidual piece of sculpture as "a part o
this effect, as well as the individual
merit of the work, because in man.

An Anti Grasshopper Fungus.

Its not only beneficial insects, how
ever, which are being imported, but
diseases of injurious insects, says l..
.. Howard in Everybody's Magazine.
In South Africa the colonlsts suffer
severely from swarms of migratory
grasshoppers which fly from the north
and destroy their crops. They have
discovered out there fungus disease
which under favorable conditions kills
off the grasshoppers in enormous num-
bers. AT the meteorological Institute
in Grabamstown. Natal, they have rul-
tivated this fungus In culture tubes,
and have carried 1t successfully
throughout the whole year; and they
have used it practically by distributing
these culture tubes wherever swarms of
grasshoppers settle and lay their eggs.
TIE disease, once started in an army
Of young grasshoppers, soon reduces
them to harmless numbers. The
United States government last year Sc
cured culture tubes OF this disease, and
experiments carried on in Colorado
and In Mississippi show that the
vitality Of the fungus had not been de-
stroyed by its long ocean voyage, and
many grasshoppers were killed by Its
spread. During the past winter other
cultures we're brought over from Cape
Colony, and the fungus is being pro.
pagated in the department of agricul,
ture for distribution during the coming
summer IN parts of the country where
grassboppers may prove to be de-
structlyely abundant.

AS VIEWED IN THE NORTH.

Much, has been said by the state
press regarding the new anti-gamb-
ling law, which will be effective after
February %, 1902. Some have doubts
as to whether it will be enforced. A
majority of the members of our legis-
lature voted for the law, and presum-
ably a majority of our citizens were
in favor of It,. Since it has become
a law many who were opposed to the
ell regulating gambling now say they
are in favor of enforcing it strictly.
All ~law-abiding citizens should emo it
moral support, at least. OF course
gambling, to a certain extent, will be
carried on in back rooms and out-of.
the-way places. The gambling habit
is akin to the whiskey habit. You
might as well try to legislate an old
toper's rye away from him as to try
to say by law that the habitual gamb-
Ter shall not indulge in that sport, as
he Is pleased to call it. But you can
keep it away from the young men They
will not sneak away to some unlawful
resort to engage in a game. The temp
tation is not as great as when they see
the game licensed and protected by
law, and men who stand quite well in
the community playing it in the open
Wyoming is rapidly forging to the
front industrially and educationally

One thing experience teaches, that
life brings no benediction for those
who take it easily. The harvest can
not be reaped until the soil has been
deeply ploughed and freely narrowed.
Learn to suffer and be strong" says
the poet: and certain 1t is that without
suffering there can be no strength. Not
indeed hat suffering is or makes
strength. but that it evokes the laten.
power, and rouses into action the en-
ergies that would have otherwise lain
ingloriously supine. The discipline OF
life is a necessary prelude to the VIC
tory Of life, and all that Is finest, pur-
est and noblest in human nature is
called forth by the presence of want,
disappointment. pain. opposition and
Injustice. Difficulties cal be conquered
oniy by decision; obstacles can be re-
moved only by arduous effort. These
test our manhood, and at the same
time confirm II systematically. H.
D. Adams.
