A FORGOTTEN ADMoNITIoN.

The Washington Times has many es-
Unable qualities, but 1t occasionally
allows its craftsmanship to carry 1t to
extremes. For instance, 1t reminds
congress that the president in his last
annual message said:
I'm our great prosperity we must
guard against the danger II invites Of
extravaganza in government expendi-
lures and appropriations and the
chosen representatives Of the people
will, doubt not, furnish an example
in their legislation Of that wise econ
omy which in season Of plenty hus-
bands for the future"
Now, what could be more cruel than
this untimely reference to long since
forgotten admonition?
Perhaps, after ALL the republican
members will not feel entirely crushed
by this executive rebuke when they re-
member that the president has fire.
quently found 1t convenient to dIsre-
gard his own message, but 1t Is for
tunate that messages are not re-read
at the close of congressional sessions

BEGGARs BIG AND LITTLE.

The New York Tribune in a recent
issue contains this editorial;
Although this is the season Of pros
perity, and the number of people out
of employment Is comparatively small
beggars seem 70 be even more numer-
Gus, persistent and insolent both up
town and downtown, than IN former
winters. Cannot the police do more
to keep them within bounds than they
have been dolngY
1t IS not difficult to understand why
beggars are persistent and insolent,
but when we are told by the New York
Tribune that they are even more num-
erous than in former winters, the fact
would seem to call for some oXplana-
ton. In this connection 1t may not be
out Of place to say that II the New
York Tribune was rs Jealous in It's
efforts to keep subsidy beggars within
bounds as 1t is to curtail the priyil-
eyes OF the common every day beggar,
who will be satisfied with loaf Of
bread, the Tribune would be remem-
bered by a grateful people for other
reasons than that it was once edited
by Horace Greeley.

Topeka, March 5.-The State will be
saved large amount of money in the
publication of reports Of state officers
and boards. Under the old system,
nearly every board or subordinate
officer in charge of an institution made
an annual report. This had to be pub
lished in book form and cost lots of
money. This legislature passed law
providing for biennial instead Of an
nual reports. The amount this will
save the taxpayers will reach up into

troversy in Wabaunsce county but will
no doubt settle such cases in number
OF other counties.

advanced only three points. Congress-
has also been asked 10 give II vote OF
thanks TO Admiral Sampson and the
officers and men under him for the
battle Of Santiago Bay. In the history
of this country there have been many
instances of favoritISm, but In all OF
our history there have been none to
compare with the favoritism shown to
Sampson and the Injustice sought to ba
put upon Schley, The battle OF San
tiago Bay was one Of the greatest sea
fights in the history Of the world, Adj
miral Schley commanded In that bat
tie and long ago the people learned
the truth and accorded to him the title
Of Hero OF Santiago Bay" II 10 there

through administration influence, has
been advanced above Schley This ad-
vancement may afford temporary gra'

not disturb the proud position which
Admiral Schley holds In the affections
of the American people, The injus-
tice done Schlty will merely serve to
advance him in the estimation Of the
American people-an advancement
which no presidential order aud 10 act
Of congress can In the least disturb.

 Every available vehicle in Opeliks in Opileka was pressed into service and as the funeral procession passed through the quiet streets, 1t made ar imposing spectacle. All business houses were closed and the buildings were draped with black. Persons stood silently upon the streets with uncovered heads. The members of the staff trudged through the muddy streets by the side of the hearse bearing the body of their distinguished leader.
 From Chambers Street, the proces. sion turned into Jefferson Street and reached the sacred edifice a few min. utes before 10 o'clock.

 The seauestered little cemetery was reached about 12:3S o'clock, the faith ful members of the Governors staff and the two military companies hay ing tramped the entire way through the mud.
 The services at the grave were im- pressive in their simplicity. The beau tiful burial service of the Methodist Church was read by Rev. H. D. Moore, assisted by Rev. A. l..

 Citizens from every County in Ala bama have been here today to partici- pate fin the sad rites of the dead. The city has been draped in black. the stores have been closed and all busi- ness has been suspended. A special train bearing Governor Jelks, members of the Constitutional Convention and other distinguished Alabamians came here this morning from Montgomery and returned immediately after the fu- neral services which were held at the Methodist Church on Jefferson street.
 Every minister of the gospel in Ope- lika and several from Auburn partici- pated in the exercises and the distin- guished citizen of Lee County was eu- logized by Rev. H. D. Moore former pastor of the Governor; Rev. J. F. Purser pastor of the Baptist Church. and Rev. D. M. Banks. a venerable friend of the dead Executive. The elo- quent words of the men of God found response in the hearts of the vast con- course which packed the sacred edifice and many eyes were filled with tears.
 It was recalled today that Governor Stanford first entered into the public life of Alabama as member of the Constitutional Convention of 1875 and that one of his last official acts was to issue a proclamation calling the Con- stitutionaI Convention of 1901.
