The territorial board of educa- tion completed it's labors a few days ago. No change will be made in the text books of the schools except that the copy books teaching the Roudbush system of writing will be substi- tuted for those in use, which teach vertical writing. The gen. eral verdict among practical and experienced teachers is that the system of vertical handwriting as taught, is a failure.

A concerted effort is now being
 made by the legitimate com panies in the California oil fields to oust the fake concerns which have been preying upon the un- wary for the last six months. It seems that oil propositions offer
 such glittering. opportunities to become suddenly wealthy that the bogus concerns have no trouble in scooping in large punches of good, honest dollars.

Oklahoma gets its wheat early for 1902, but unfortunately, it is a small crop. That territory, however, has been having such a run of good luck for the past few years that this little piece of ad- versitiy will not hurt it much. It is to be hoped that the corn yield will do better than the wheat, and better than it did in

The Country Boy.

From the Louisville Courier Journal.
With moral, physical and intellec-
tual equipment, the country boy begins
life in a new home with all the adv2ht-
ages that come TO certain plants that
never thrive until transplanted. The
country boy knows how these plants
begin to grow and flourish as soon as
they are drawn from the beds where
they have been sprouted. In their
new situation they take root and grow
with a vigor that probably never
would have come had they remained
in the place where the seed were
sown. The distinguished man who
never passed barefoot boy with
out feeling like taking off his hat TO
him. so great were the possibilities
under the shock head of hair, spoke
only what il needs no learning to know.
1t is the country boy, barefooted sun
burned and freckled, who is the rose
and expectancy Of the nation"

TREND OF IMPERIALISM.

Careful observers of the trend OF ma
tional politics cannot fail to note a
slow but steady gravitation toward i'm
perialistic lines, which is becoming
daily more evident.
The latest move in this direction is
the republican, bill to provide a BODY
guard for the president. The bill is
being yiciously attacked by the demo
cratic members OF the senate because
of it's indisputable ear marks OF i'm
perialism. Strong speeches were made
in opposition to it during Thursday
session by several senators, including
Mallory of Florida, Bacon OF Georgia,
Carmaek of Tennessee, aud Money
and McLaurin of Mississippi Mr.
Money suggested that the bill was
product of the hysteria following Nc
Kinley's assassination run IN Mr..
McLaurin vouchsafed his opinion
that the bill is unconstitutional.
Atany rate, the bill should not be
allowed to become law. 1t is violent
Nv inconsistent with all that is funda-
mental in our model form of govern
ment. 1t is unnecessary. mOnarchlal
and out of line with the traditions
which We love to honor.

THE PRESIDENTS sTRENUOsITY'

President Roosevelt is eyldenCly ln'
fatuated with the idea OF strenuoslty
and is doing some notable things along
this line, He seems to hold speclal
grudge against General Miles, and is
undoubtedly making things very un-
pleasant for the ranking officer OF the
army. He has twice rebuked the gal
LIANT old Indian fighter, once doing so
in nublic in order TO complete the lat
ter's humiliation.
Miles is bitterly opposed to the Haw-
lev bill, recognizing its impracticaolll-
ty, and says he will enter into Volun-
tary retirement if the bill becomes a
law. The president has the right TO
retire any officer who has passed the
age of6 and it will not be surprising
if he uses his prerogative to GUST
Miles.
II is very probably that Teddy be-
lieyes this has last term in of1ice,and IS
determined to make his influence felt
while it lasts. He is at least causing
some veryauneomplimentAry things to
be said about himself

THE OATS ANSWER.
KipIinE's Famous Poem Satirized I'm
Singing Verse.

Kipling's Famous Poem SRtiFized I'm
Singing Verse.
Since Rudyard Kipling published
"The Islanders" there have been many
parodies, but no metrical answers
worthy of the name until the following
appeared in the London Star:
Fenced by our patient fathers. ringed by
our peaceful seas.
Long did we wake in quiet and long lie
down at ease.
Till you said of strife. What is it?" Of
the sword Let 1t fash again."
Till you made god OF wanton war and
an idol of armed men.
We stopped our ears to the warning; we
would neither look nor heed;
We set our hate above our laws and our
lust above our need.
Because of our witless rancor and our
pitilesS pride of race
We grudged our brothers freedom and
our friends a resting place.
You clustered and Dragged and beloved,
and we paid when you babe us pay,
But where are the fifty thousand men that
you twanged to Table bay?
For soon were the judgments loosened,
soon was our shame revealed,
At the hands OF little people. few but
apt in the field.
Though now they are only remnant (and
Miner has started his "Star'D,
You ask for more of our millions and
more of our flesh for war.
Sons you would tear from their mothers
lads from their lasses sweet
And brush them under the wheels of war
like the dust and dirt of the street.
And what did you look they should COM
pass? Glory that fades like breath
Glory to Gold in the highest at the price
of brothers death?
So! And we asked, lis 1t glory to hollow
the veldt with graves
And to build a gilded empire on the backs
of beaten slaves"
But you said, 1.-The war is OVERT But you
said, The end is comet
And we swallowed the hocns of Hatfield
we swallowed lie Of Brum.
Then we returned TO our vomit, then we
contented our souls
With the kipling fools al the pothouse ano
the rudyard OATS at the polls.
Given to strong delusion, wholly believing
lie,
We saw that the war was not over. and
we let the months go by,
Waiting some easy wonder, hoping some
saving signs,
Cheated. openly cheated for the sake of
the sacred mines.
Cheated and sick of your Boosting, an
what is your boasting worth
When the ink you fling is a blotch of
blood on the rotting earth!
1t was not made with the mountains; 1t is
not one with the deep;
Fools and OATS devised it, fools and OATS
must keep.
Fools not men. belaud you; OATS, not men,
adore;
How should men applaud you, o laureate
of gore?

THE cRUMPACKER RESOLUTION.

Crumpacker of Indians has introduce
ed in the house a resolution, indorsei
by the republican caucus, to lnvestl-
gate suffrage laws in the south, with a
view of cutting down the south's rep
reese ntation. Possibly Mr.. Crumpack-
er thought it due his constituents that
he introduce. some sort of bill, and
couldn't think of anything else to in
troduce. 1t is doubtful that mis- effort
to dig up the Ratchet will meet with
the appro baton of majority OF con-
cress. The south is as much entitled
to her full representation as she north,
EAST or west, and will of course con-
tend for it. MIR. Crumpacker should
step back TO the extreme rear and be
seated. He is viewing conditions in
the south from afar off, without the
slightest knowledge of what the situa'
ton is. If be desires To gain some lit
tie notorlety he has succeeded,
though it Ia of a very unpleasant va
rlety. Oh, we'll, such fellows as
Crumpie do manage to break into con-
gress occasionally, but he is rehec-
ton on the Judgment of the people
who elected him.
