Now Epoch In Presidents.


Mr.. Mckinley was probably the
last Of the presidents whom the
country will have who served in the
civil war Theodore Roosevelt was
only 3 years old in the early days OF
the war of secession. True he is
younger than any other President
whom the country has had. The
chances are, however, that the chief
magistrates hereafter will belong to
later generation of men than did
those who controlled the nations
destinies from Lincoln's days on
ward to those of Mckinley. All this
list of elected presidents served in
the army during the civil war except
Mr.. Cleveland.
When Martin Van Buren, was
elected two. thirds of century ago
the country realized that a new
epoch in the nations history had
been reached. He was the first of
the Presidents who was born after
the close of the war of independence.
All his predecessors, even jackson,
the man who was in Office directly
before him, had either participated
in the war or were old enough to re-
member its passions. and to be in
fuenced, in some degree at leaset,
by the issues which that conflict
created or by the passions which it
generated. Van Buren, was born in
the last month of 1882, just after the
preliminary treaty was signed by
which George III recognized the in
depenence of his late colonies.
In the present instance also new
Landmark in the nations history has
been reached. It is now over thirty
six years since Lees veterans stacked
arms for the last time. Forty years
will have passed from that date by
the time the next President is inaug-
urated. Not many men in the army
at the close of 1855 were below %
or % years Of age. Few of them
who will be alive in 1905 will be un-
der 65 years of age, and that mark is
pretty close to the dead line in pres
idential ambition. Only three Pros.
idents have been as old as 65 at the
time of their inauguration-William
Henry Harrison, Taylor and Buchan-
an-and the last named was the only
one of them who lived through his
term. The chances are that the
country has seen in the presidential
Office the last of the men who fought
in the civil war. The present Presi-
dent belongs to a later generation,
and it is likely that all his success
sors will. A new page in the ma
tions history has been turned.-Ex.

David Hutton rancher on the riv.
er, near Quartette, appears to have
solved the problem of irrigation. He
has invented water wheel with which
he irrigates large ranch, raising bar
ley, wheat, alfalfa and all kinds of
vegetables. The ranch was cleared off
and the first crop put in late last fall.
The water wheel used by Mr.. Hutton
Is an um brella shaped affair, that can
be raised or lowered into the water.
At the present stage of water the wheel
pumps six hundred inches OF water
into the irrigating bitches, and at low
est water the wheel furnishes about
sixty inches. In the winter time when
the river Is very low, there Is little me-
essity for water and the wheel furD-
ishes all that can be used. At this sea.
son the river is at its hight and flood
Of water can be pumped upon the land.
Mr.. Hutton Is building up splendid
ranch and within few years will have
the finest property 10 southeastern
