AN INSELFISH PUBLIC SERVICE.

1t is gratifying to learn that the two former
Justices of the Supreme Court who We're desig-
mated to act counsel for CZolgOsz have ac-
cepted the unwelcome assignment. They felt
a deep aversion to the task imposed upon them
by the court. and their consent to perform the
duty from which they shrank has greatly en-
hnced the respect in which they have always
been held. They have undertaken repugnant
service solely from a sense Of personal and pro-
fessonal obligation, and a more perfect Illus
tration of absolute unselfshness has perhaps
never been seen in the annals of the bar. If
they entertain the slightest fear that their In
voluntary association with the assassin as OFF,
GERS of the court which is about to try him will
be remembered by their fellow citizens with
any other feelings than those of admiration and
gratitude they should dismiss it at once and
completely.
The agreement of exJuStices Lewis and Titus
to conduct the defence of Czolgosz. while it as
sures to him such a measure of legal protection
as the law enjoins and the interests of organ
lied society require. is guarantee that no
pettifogging practices will be resorted to In his
behalf The country will not be invited TO gaze
at n spectacular performance carried on in the
name of justice for the qualification of morbid
and vicious tastes. but all the proceedings will
be directed with a stern decorum befitting the

whole matter. Upon our answer 10 such ques
tionne will depend whether our mourning for
the MARTYR President is to be accounted sincere
or perfunctory. 1t is easy TO express apprecia
tion. grief and detesfation of evil. But what is
wanted is that we shall live up to these fine
sentiments in the actual practice OF orr daily
lives. 1t was easy TO stop for few minutes all
the wheels of traffic and of industry What is
more to the purpose is to stop forever the fool
ish or wicked practices which led to our be-
reavement. Yesterday we were profuse in all
noble professions and exalted promises. To-day
is the day for their fulfment-to-day and every
succeeding day that shall come to U.S. The end
Of Mckinley has come. and passed Now comes
the something after the end, the beginning Of
our responsibility in proving to the world that
we can learn lesson written in our Presidents
heart blood.

A Valuable Book.

One of the most interesting books is
that recently issued by the J. w. Butler
Paper company. 1t gives a complete
history of paper making from the time of
Pharaohs. when clay tablets were used
until the opening Of the present century.
Following the use Of clay came the use Of
leaves, then stone, metal, skins. and
finally paper. The pure white color of
paper of our time is the result of an
accident The wife of the paper maker
was standing near vat of prepared pulp
and dropped package of indigo.
Through fear she said nothing. But
when the product was placed on the
London market its snowy whiteness
brought an advanced figure. Then she
revealed the secret to her husband, and
blueing is still the ingredient used. Per.
haps on no other industry has such marked
advancement been made as in paper
making, and nowhere will be found
more comprehensive history Of paper
making than in the Butler conpany's
new book.

Idaho miller is at the door of q popula-
ton more than 900 times as great as that
of his eastern brother. He has nothing
to fear from eastern competition. He is
5000 miles nearer the market and has
superior quality of wheat and it is raised
more cheaply and is 20 cents cheaper per
bushel. The Idaho miller should manu-
tacture exclusively the brands sdapted to
the export trade. Within 10 years the
market will have grown beyond the
capacity of our supply. 1t is to be hoped
the plans of MIR. Ham will succeed. Man

growing are the bone and sinew of wealth

erick Furston's daring project for the
capture of Aguinaldo in his hiding place
in the province of Isabella, instead of Lu-
zon, has proved completely successful.
Aeuinaldo was captured there March
23rd.
The United States guuboat Vicksburg,
Commander E. B. Bary, with General
Funston and Aguinaldo on Board, arrived
here this morning.
The province Of Isabella, where the
capture of Aguinaldo occurred, is ON the
island Of Luzon about 400 miles northeast
of Manila and about IS miles north of
Baler, on the eastern coast, which place
was made memorable by the capture of
Lieutenant Gilmore and his party from
the xunboat Yorkton in April, 1899. Isa-
bella province is wild and mountainous.
1t was part Of the island that had
never before been visited by the Ameri-
can troops.
General Funston's plans, as outlined in
the dispatch from Manila to the Associ.
ated Press a few days ago, were to make
the trip to the Isabella mountains to
Aguinaldo's hiding place, accompanied
by Sergeant-Major Harris Captain New
ton, of the Thirty-fourth infantry; Lieu.
tenant Admire, of the Tween ty-second in
fantry; Lieutenant Mitchell, of the For
tieth infantry; six veteran scouts aud
company Of native scouts. all picked
men. They were to be landed by the
Vicksburg ON remote beach north of
Baler and were to proceed overland,
guided by former officer of Aguiualdo,
who had betrayed to Funston the Filipino
leaders abode. To deceive the enemy it
was arranged that Aguinaldo's represen-
tative. who had given the information to
the Americans, should lead the native
scouts, they to assume the character Of in
surgents still loyal to the rebel cause.
They were to make it appear that they
had captured General Funston and other
American officers Of high rank and were
taking them into the camp Of the insnr-
gent GHETTO be delivered as prisoners of
war. The pretended prisoners were to
throw aside their assumed character and
seize Aguinaldo.
