A shepherd should know the laws Of

has been brought from it's wild state

wants to know why the first like"

one sheep had fine wool and another
coarse, why one weighed only 100
pounds at maturity and another 800,
why one had fine bones and another
coarse, why one Is narrow chested and
thin necked and another the reverse in
fact, he wants to know the whole Sc

so that he may apply those laws to the
further improvement of his flock. The
sheep, like the human being, is made
up of brain, bone, muscle and vitals,

President McKinley's Mess
age of Coincidence the
Subject of
.APPREC|AT|VE COMMENT
On the Part of all the Lon
don Papers. The
English People are Deeply Touched by
the Sincere Respect Shown to the
Queen in America

London, Jan. 24.-Among the tele-
grams of sympathy that continne pour
ing in from abroad President McKin-
ley's gives great pleasure. The Lon
don Daily Chronicle remarks; "It is
believed that President McKiuley's
dispatch was the first to reach the
Prince of Wales under his new title,
and, just as Frederick the Great was
the first European sovereign to recog-
nize the independence of the United
States, so now the President of the
great republic has been the first to
recognize the kingship of the great
grandson ofthe monarch againstwhos
authority the American colonists sue
cessfully rebelled.
"This is very touching when one
remembers the visit of the Prince of
Wales to Washington tomb. Prob
ably it was some remembrance of that
incident which made President McKin'
ley hasten to be the first to salute the
Prince of Wales as king, and thelcom-
pliment, we are told, was keenly APP
preciated.
The London Standard says: at is
not for mere show that the Americans
have received the news of the death of
Queen Victoria as a bereavement of
their own and commented upon it in
terms such as they would employ in
the case of an honored President dying
in office"
The st. James Gazette says: "The
honor paid to the memoryof the queen
by the President of the United States
is one which should live in the mem
cries of all of us when questions for
discussion arise between the two great
English speaking countries. There
are hidden blessings, perhaps, even
in so great a.sorrow as ours of to-
day."
London, Jan. 24.-Englandc continues
to give evidence that she is profound
ly touched by the universal sympathy,
especially that of America, expressed
upon the death of Queen Victoria, and
papers like the st. James's Gazette
and thejLondon Globe, by no means
noted for their friendliness to the
United States, have been among the
first to evince gratitude.

HE MAY BE A REGULAR.
The Kansas Delegation Expects a
Good Appointment for General
Funston.

Washington, Jan. 29-Members of
the Kansas delegation in the House
said today that they expected the
President to give General Funston a
good army appointment under thearmy
reorganization bill, and that Funston
claims for recognition would be pre-
sented to Mr.. Mckinley at the proper
time. 1t was stated, however, that
none of the delegation had taken up
the matter with the President and that
nothing would be done until General
Funston had been consulted.
Members of the House committee on
military affairs said today the pro-
visions of the army bin regulating the
appointment of volunteer officers
would prevent the Kansan's appoint
ment to any higher commission than
that of captain, unless the President
should make Il personal exception, as,
for instance, was done in the case of
General Wheeler, who was trans
ferred to theregular army as Brigadier.
1t is understood that General Funston $
friends think his record in the Philip
pines since and during theactive iusur-
rection would justify his appointment
as u major.

The unprecedented influx of the past
year is a. question which invites our
most earnest attention. 1t seems con-
elusive that our immigration laws are
inadequate to control the serious situa-
t1on that threatens American labor.
From the commissioners report it is
evident that majority of the arrivals
are of a class that are least desired as
citizens, being ignorant and impover-
ished-in short, a menace to society.
1t seems high time that more stringent
measures were adopted to close the
door against this influx. by the framing
OF laws that will turn back the dross
to the shore from which it comes If
it is the desire of the people to admit
none but an enlightened class of forein-
ers to citizenship in the United States;

prerequisite to citizenship in the Unit

LABOR'S DEADLY BATTLE.

Master Workman Cha nber rlain Says
1t Is Soon to he Fought.
Organized labor has long been a clog
upon the machinery of greed and a
2syatch at the home of the wealth pro-
ducer, whether he is in the union or
not. We believe that in the near fu-
ture a deadly battle is to be fought
between organized labor and organized
capital. 1t is to be death grapple by
the united forces of labor unions on
the one side and the united forces of
the money unions on the other, and
the highest court, the bankers union,
the lawyers union, the trust union and
the union of the professional politi-
clans, the newspaper union, the eccle-
siastical union and the interna tional
union of ancient snobbery, backed by
the armies and navies of the world,
will combine to overthrow organized
la bor that kicks and strikes against
conditions that it. could remedy at the
bollot box. The supreme court has al
ready affirmed the decision, appealed
from Los Angeles, that to be q member

It is because the Sampson of labor has
