The Dying Never Weep,

Il have stood by the bedside
of hundreds of dying people, "
said an old physician and I
have yet to see a dying person
shed a tear. No matter what
the grief of the bystanders may
be, the stricken person will show
no signs of over towering emo
ton. I have seen a circle of agon-
lied children around dying
mOther-a mother who in health
would have been touched to the
quick by signs of grief in d
child-yet she repOsed as calm
and Unconditional as though she
had been made of stone There
is some strange and inexplicable
psychological change which ac-
com panies the act of dissolution
1t is well known to all physicians
that pain disappears as the end
approaches. And nature seems
to have arranged it so that
mental peace shall also attend
our last lingering moment

Our cOnfrere of the Kaplan
Times, Mr.. Marion l.. Andrew,
who was an employee of the
Banner at one time, is the daddy
of the first baby born in the new
town. Here's best wishes to
Andrew and the boy.-Franlz1in
Waterman.
Newspaper men are always
pioneers in everything that
builds up country. Brother
Andrew is giving Kaplan an ex-
cellent paper which is doing
valiant service for the advance
ment of that growing village.
BY becoming the proud father
of the first baby born in Kaplan
he has but given additional evil
dence of the newspaperman'si in
mate instinct to be first and
foremost in all laudable works.
1t takes babies to build city, a
fact which causes The Gazette to
deplore the existence of so many
bachelors in Lafayette.

ROM /OHN.SON

Will Tom johnson be the man
chosen by the Democracy in
1904 to lead the fight against
plutocracy? This question is
uppermost in the minds of peo-
pie who have grown tired of pre-
vailing conditions and who feel
the need of some sturdy cham
piOn with gray matter in his
head and iron in his blood. No
man has in recent times grown
as much in popular esteem as
has the brainy mayor of Cleve
land. The privileged classes re-
cOgnize that Tom johnson is Il
force in public affairs to be
reckoned with. The plain peo-
pie see in the Ohioan massive
intellect, an honesty of pur-
pose and all the other elements
of that aggressive leadership
which should be possessed by the
man who is to do battle against
the allied powers of ill-gained
wealth and imperialism.
Himself a capitalist, Johnson
is not an enemy of capital, but he
is foe of privilege. Having be-
gun life a poor boy, he is dis
tinctly one of the people, but
nothing in his makeup smacks
of demagogism. A thinker, an
orator, a business man and a
student, and, above all, a genu-
inc American who loves his
Tom Johnson looks very much
like the Moses who is to lead us
out of the wilderness.
The following excerpts, from
a speech recently delivered by
Mr.. Johnson, have the true ring:
THE principles of Democracy,
always old, but never obsolete,
confront us to-day, both in local
and in national questions. One
of these national questions re-
lateS to trusts. For this evil our
adversaries advise publicity as
the remedy.
"Publicity! That might pro-
tect investors against fraud: but
how could it protect the public
against monopoly, which is the
basis of trusts? Men whose in
or not at all. but whose living ex-
! Ously-why should they care for
Ill =,
not examinations of the account
books of the trusts: it is the
sweeping of monopolies from the
statute books of the people.
THE money question also is
national, and let me tell you this
| is no dead issue. as some would
have US believe. Dead though it
may be in one form, it is alive in
other and more radical forms.
So long as Wall street interests
dictate our financial policies the
| money question cannot die. You
know that [ have never accepted
the doctrine commonly known as
Is to /. l have worked with
those who do accept it because l
have believed, as I believe yet,
that the free silver fight was the
first great protest of the Amer
lean people against monopoly
the first great struggle here of
the masses against the privi-
legged classes. 1t was not free
silver that frightened the pluto
cratic leaders. What they feared
was free men.

noon Sir Howard Vincent secured the
adoption of a resolution urging the
Government to fully carry out the

Sir Howard has never succeeded In

WASHINGTON. June 24.-Secretary
Root declines to discuss the details OF
Governor Tafts negotiations at Rome
until they are complete. They are pro
cecding steadily and in the usual
course, each side seeking to make the
best possible bargain, with the result
that there have been several exchanges
since the original proposition of Gov
ernor Taft touching the friars lands.
These are reported by the governor
to Secretary Root by cable almost dali
ly, with full explanatory comments by
himself and suggestions to govern the
framing of counter proposals. The last
report from him came to Washington
Sunday night in the shape of Il copy of
the proposal of the committee of cardi-
mails. and the answer to this was dis
patched yesterday afternoon. 1t is said
at the war department that, while
there naturally have been some wide
differences between the negotiatOrS,
there has been no such thing as an ulti-
matum or serious hitch and there is no
reason to doubt that Il satisfactory
agreement will be reached.

VICTORIA, Il. c., June 2O.-Orien-

districts of the province of Whangha,
Korea, is deplorable. In Yunan, out of
5000 houses 1000 are empty, and
scores of sufferers are lying by the
roadside ON the verge of starvation.
In the Layoha district conditions are
even worse. The people have been
driven by hunger TO tear bark off trees
to eat, and under one tree live dead
bodies We're found. In the town of
Imchun family suffering from star
walton was driven to eating the bodies
of two of its children.
Plague is on the increase in Formo-
