H Miller. the generals lifelong friend
and counselor, yesterday. The instrument
was placed in his hands soon after its exc
cution in 1898, just before the decedent left
for Paris to make his argument in the
itish-Venezuelan case.
Those present were Mrs. Harrison, her
daughter Elizabeth. Col. Russell Harrison
and Mrs. J. r. Mckee, son and daughter of
Gen. Harrison by his first wife. and Carter
B. Harrison of Murfreesboro'. Tenn, brother
OF the dead ex-President. John Scott Har-
rison of Kansas City, the other brother of
the testator. was not In attendance having
been compelled to return home yesterday
forenoon.
Nothing could be learned of the .on-
tents of the will or the provisions of the
distribution Of the property, but 1t was
matter of report that Gen. Harrison had
made ample and very liberal provision for
Mrs. Harrison and their little daughter,
and that there could be no reasonable
ground. from any direction, for future dis
pute OF the will in the courts.
It Is known that Gen. Harrison in his
lifetime. was careful and painstaking in
weston of his Accommodations of wealth ac-
quired in the practice of his profession,
and that his investments have been such
almost invariably, through many years. as
to insure profitable and continuous returns.
His estate. 1t is believed. will be found to
consist largely Of valuable stocks, with no
small amount of capital invested In bonds.

Initiative and Referendum.

One of the Western reform papers
enters plea for the Initiative and Refer
endum system, which is in successful
operation, most notably in Switzerland,
and has proved benefit to every other
country and town where adopted. 1t says
There can be no doubt that government
by representation is, under the present
system, neither representative nor effec.
tive. Occasionally the people succeed in
procuring reforms and Improvements that
they demand, but usually they are gained
by tortuous and expensive course. The
Seeeed failures of our legislatures and
4 of our city councils to fulfill their pledges
and to perform the peoples bidding have
sufficiently demonstrated that there are
radical faults and discrepancies in the
present system.
With the initiative and referendum il
can hardly be doubted that we should
find little difficulty in securing much
needed reforms.
AhS VI lbC NdHuOl
be gainsaid; it has been too long recog.
nized by American states in connection
with constitutional amendments, and, we
believe, has proved an almost entirely
satisfactory safety valve for the preven.
ton of much INSCRIPTIONS and imprudent
legislation. Would not the power to
compel submission of all vital questions
of legislation to direct vote of the peo-
pie provide yet another safety valve
While we do not believe that the practice
of direct legislation would prove to be a
panacea for the ills of misgovernment to
which communities are heirs, we are sat
isfed, in the light of precedents in the
government of New England towns and
in the administration of Switzerland,
which has earned the title of 'the ideal
republic" that there would be no danger,
but on the contrary, much benefit by the
ampli6cation of the expression of the
peoples will. If we do not entirely sub
scribe to the adage, "Vox Populi, Vox
Del" yet we do emphatically believe that
city and state should be governed by the
fullest possible use of the general intel
ligence of the people.

A contemporary bemoans the indus
trial conditions of the times in the fol-
lowing manner, but fails to suggest any
thing feasible looking toward their
betterment
1t is discoraging to have to admit that
the twentieth century, which promises so
much in many respects-so much in the
way of scientific discovery, of educational
progress, of practical philanthropy, ol
improvement in the means of living, OF
additions to the comforts of life and in
many other ways-seems to hold out nc
prospect of permanent industrial peace.
Great as the prosperity of the country is,
it is materially lessened and retarded by
the perpetual war between capital and
labor, and by the efforts of each, through
combination and organization, to get ad.
vantage over the other. 1t is time these
two great interests should stop warning
Their continued hostility is not only
unnatural, but is menace to law and
order and to the welfare of the country
The leaders on both sides are wrong in
adhering to stubborn and uucompromis.
ing methods They are wrong in adher.
ing to selfish policies. They should gel
out of the unnatural attitude of hostility
into which they have worked themselves
Their interests are identical, and if they
would deal justly and fairly with each
other the chronic war between them
would end. We need industrial peace
not merely as an indispensable requisite
for complete national prosperity, but as a
safeguard against other evils. If present
conditions continue, they will grow worse,
and perpetual war between labor and
capital may lead to war of another kind.

Health and Beauty.

A poor complexion is usually the result
of torpid liver or irregular action of the
bowels. Unless natures refuse is carried
off it will surely cause impure blood.
Pimples, boils aud other eruptions follow.
This is natures method of throwing off
the poisons which the bowels failed to
remove. DeWitt's Little Early Risers are
world famous for remedying this condi-
ton. They stimulate the liver and pro-
mote regular and healthy action of the
bowels but never cause gripping, cramps
or distress. Safe pills. Eli T. Reynolds.
