PAUL THE PATRIOT.

Poor old Paul Kruger He is
still in Europe trying to get help
for his struggling country but no
other power seems willing to help
him. In an interview the other
day he spoke as follows
"Will no one arbitrate Will no
one give us a chance of defending
ourselves1 We may have done
wrongly; we have our faults and
our weaknesses. We declared war.
but our hands were forced, and we
can prove it. Get some one to
judge between this England and
ourselves.
"But the Lord will help us in
the end. We shall win. | do not
know how or when, but we shall
win at last"
Mr.. Kruger says the Transvaal
offered more reforms in one week
than an older country would make
in forty years, giving in on all
points almost to the utsermost, but
that the uttermost was seized upon
as a stumbling block.
Referring to his reception in
Europe which has bitterly disap-
pointed him, Mr.. Kruger says:
81 care nothing for flowers, moth
ing, nothing. The people who send
them mean well and lam grateful,
but l care nothing for them. What
| want is fair hearing and justice.
| ask for justice we are a little
folk but we have made great steps. \"
When asked why he came to
Europe, he said to the interviewer /:
81 could not go out with the com
mandoes as Mr.. Steyn can. am
too old, but l may be of some use
here"
1.-TWO of my sons have died on
the battlefield. Two were captured.
believe two more are dead also.
as | have not heard from them for
two months, and know they are
in the thick of the fight
"Thirty- one sons and grandsons
have in the field, yet could not
go on commando"
1t is blot on the age that no
country will interfere in behalf of
this grand old man and his patriotic
people who are fighting to the last
man, woman and child for their
country.

JoNEs.

At last an officer of the law has
been found out in Kansas with
sense and grit enough to send the
insane old crank, Mrs. Carrie Ma
ton, to jail, where she should have
been taken when she first broke
loose. Judge Hazen, Of Topeka,
promptly bound her over under
heavy bond to keep the peace and
60 home and cease her lawless dep
relations. As she refused to give
bond and went to jail she is there
yet although getting very tired Of it
and now demanding and threaten
ing the Judge to get out. OF course
no one dare risk going on her bond,
because she would break loose
again soon as she was released.
jude Hazen also held some Of the
leaders with Mrs. Nation under bond
and soundly scored them for being
mixed up in such disrcputablc do
ing5 and encouraging a poor old
luna'ic who should be in an insane
asylum. There IS no question but
that Mrs. Nation is insane. Her
mother died in an insane asylum
and this will probably be her fate.

The Wheeling News remarks

The Wheeling News remarks
that
The agreement reached between
the Republicans and Democrats on
the constitutional amendment was
the first indication of sanity on the
part of the two bodies on political
matters. In the first place the
Democrats fought the amendment
increasing the membership of the
supreme court TO Eve because the
Republicans refused TO make it
non partisan court. Senator Whit
aker's illness made it impossible for
the Republicans to pass the resolu-
ton without Democratic votes.
The Democrats offered compro-
mise If the Republicans would pass
an amendment providing for the
registration of voters. This was
agreed TO and both propositions
will be voted on in 1902.
This viii cut out many of The
colored voters and foreigners who
are run into the state and voted like
sheep by the Republicans.

Topeka, Kas., Feb. s4.-Mrs.
Carrie Nation, firing of Jail life,
has written to Judge Hszen letter
demanding release.
al want you to quit your fooling. {"
she writes, land let me out of here.
If you cause me to miss my engage
ments, l wont feel like a minister
ing angel unto you. 1t is time for
you TO recover yourself before the
devil, your master, makes a clean
sweep with you into hell.
"You are prosecuting one of
Gods children who loves you for
Jesus sake. Let me out that l
may go about my business of saving
such poor devils as you. Write or
come to see me right off"
Judge Hazen has ignored the
letter, placing it in the waste basket
with dozens of others received on
the subject from different parts Of
the country. Some of these letters
threaten the judge. One from
Bunker Hill, Kansas, says a com
mittee OF fifty women will admins
ter coat of tar and feathers to the
oficial If Mrs. Nation is not re
leased by February 81. Another
from a woman in Douglass, Mich.
says eve now propose if Mrs.
Nation is held longer to raise the
greatest army of women the world
has ever known and wipe man out
or existence. 1t is our intention TO
begin with you"

1t is time now for the people of
Kansas to enforce the laws of that
state against selling liquor or else
repeal them. They have been posing
long enough as temperance people
and living under the hypocritical
cloak of prohibition with illegal
saloons and speakeasies all over the
state. Instead of following up and
encouraging such OLD lunatics and
law-breakers as Mrs. Nation, they
should elect men to Office who will
enforce the law and see that they do
it and if they can't live up to the
law, repea il.

The State Senate in executive
session last week very properly re-
fused to confirm the appointment of
X. t. Mcmahon as one of the
Regents of the University on the
grounds that he is not a citizen of
this state, which is true, as he has
resided in Washington city for
several years and has an Office there.
When Governor Atkinson appoint
ed him his attention was called to
the matter of Mcmahon not being
eligible, but he stuck to it when he
knew it was illegal till now he gets
turned down.

western Republicans in Congress

Although the next Congress will
be overwhelmingly Republican
there will no! be a colored member
In it. Some of the good people of
the northern states are awfully wor-
RED because the South does not
send few colored representatives
to Congress, but they are very clear
of doing anything like that them
selves. In some of the Yankee
states the colored man is supposed
to be as good or even better than a
white man. Then why don't they
elect some these brunettes to office
and set an example.

special talent for writing for publ
cation and THE ARGUS is always

That is one reason that makes the
