An unexpected reminder of the prolonged
drought OF last summer, which prevailed
so extensively. comes in a proclamation
by the Governor of Arkansa appealing for
aid for the suffering poor in several coun-
ties Of that State. 1t is said that half Of
the inhabitants of four counties named in
the proclamation are practically destitute
and more than that proportion are in need
OF help. and the condition is attributed en-
tirely to last years drought. The Govern
or's proclamation is addressed to the bank
ers of Arkansas, not to outsiders, and he
asks for a loan which he promises will be
repaid by the Legislature. 1t is an I'M
usual condition to exist in a land of plenty.

Because the Bfddle brothers. who are
now dead, declared when about to die that
they were innocent Of the crime for which
they were sentenced to be hanged. is no
reason why hey should be believed. The
Pjttsburg Dispatch says that Kahney was
killed by one of the burglars. and the two
were sentenced to death. That one of
them did kill Officer Fitzgerald is proved
by the testimony given by eyewitnesses.
They declared that they did not plan TO
resist arrest. yet one OF them stole a shot
gun and had it with him when arrested.
The fact is that they were men who be-
came so addicted to ~faIsehood that they
would not tell the truth. even in a deathbed

SENIOR CLASS DAY.
Penn,s Graduates Give Their Farewell
Entertainment.

The senior class day exerciees were
held Tuesday afternoon and drew the
largest crowd which has filed the
chapel this year. Aisles and windows
were full and many stood on chairs
in the doorway. Every one was ex-
pecting something good and no one
was disappointed.
The platform was decorated In the
senior yellow and black, the bunting
being arranged in the form OF three
pyramids, the broad bases of which
extended out over the platform just
above the performers heads. On
either side were lace curtains and
streamers reaching to the floor, Civ
ing the whole booth-like effect that
was quite pretty. Bunting was also
draped from the central electric light
to the four corners of the room, and
this also set off the general appear
ance.
"roastsn and ''slams'' on the other
classes rs had been expected. All
the numbers were excellent and de-
served place on the program from
genuine merit, rather than because
they exposed the mishaps Of the un-
dergraduates.
The quartet, composed of Misses
Pearl and Lulu Dean and Messrs.
Hirschel Coffin and Carl Lewis, gave
several excellent selections setting
forth the supremacy of the naughty
twos.n The vocal solo by Miss Geor.
gla Blackburn was greatly enjoyed
and loudly encored by the audience.
Miss Esteile Mcmillan gave d avery in
teresting production entitled THE
Memories Of an Old Grad y She
traced the college student through
his four years of work, acting many
of the parts and reading others in
way that could not but be taking with
the audience. Frederick Roberts
gave an oration which was well re-
ceived and which reused the audi
ence thoroughly. The class prophecy
was given by Miss Bessie Smith, and
as the future of each member of the
class was proclaimed the audience
was given brief glimpse of the
change fifteen years would make in
their appearance.

SOLDIER VS.. KICKER.

Montezuma Republican,: Harry Q.
Wheeler was soldier in the Philip
pines and he has been reading some
thing OF the discussion In the United
States senate regarding the alleged
cruelty of the American soldiers. He
says that if some of the senator's win
go to the Philippines and observe the
cruelties practised by the Filiplnos
they will regard the water cure and
other alleged cruelty as very mild in
deed. He believes that the American
army, all things considered, has not
only been patient and generous with
the natives, but it has been humane
under great provocation. 1t would
be good plan for some Of the dema-
gogues to trade places with the brave
boys who are upholding the flag in
that far.away country. 1t 10 queer
condition in this country when men
will stand up in the senate chamber

which he did In his characteristic

should be loyalty supported by the
republicans of the district.

THE JUDGRSHIP.

Hedrick Herald: The Sixth Judi
cial Convention held In Grinnell was
well attended, and while a stir fight
was made yet it was good natured
throughout.
When the Keokuk county delega-
tion struck the town it soon became
apparent that combination OF some
kind had been formed and that Kso-
kuk county was not in. It later
developed that Mahasks, Jasper and
Poweshiek were the winning three.
No blame can be attached to COM
bination, the other counties did just
what Keokuk would liked to have
done but couldn't. Keokuk has met
defeat just like we have d number OF
times before; but we do not, we can
not, think that it is because the
balance of the district has 1t In for
MS in anyway; but because circum-
stances have made 1t impossible for
things to come our way heretofore.
Defeat, no matter how thick our
opponent try to coat 1t with sugar is
always little bitter it can't keep MS
from trying again. Four more years
we are going back and we win get
into q combine of some kind If we
have to begin the Fourth of July
previous-the lucky three have
taught us lesson in political man
ipulation by which we are going to
profit.
There is no use sitting down and
crying over this thing or blaming any
one; but the thing TO do is to keep
stiff upper lip and begin laying strings
for four years hence.
