people of our own race andgeligion.
Among tho children the percentage of
murders thus perpetrated is admitted to
amount to 40 per cent per annum. These
are the ''bags'-to quote Kitchener's
brutal official phraseology--of which we
read in the newspapers-women and
babes and deorepit old men-the "killed"
largely consisting of nnarmed farmers
shot down in cold blood.
The conscience Of all Christendom, in.
Guiding the true English people, our own
kith and kin, not braggart Jingoes, is
shocked by this shameless brutality.
But almost In sight of our own homes
---in the Bermudas--a similar process of
determination is practiced upon the Boor
prisoners Of war herded there, unhoused,
insufficiently supplied with old, CON
demned army tents, which have long
since been blown into tatters by tho

unsanitary influence which cruelty and
neglect can produce; their nakedness
only partially covered by the rags to

"Thore is no question that tho superi-

must be maintained. Any ono who has
seen the South under the rule of tho

understand why this must be SO, For

leading event of the season.
The town board of Waldwick met
Wednesday and formed new school
district in the northeast corner Of
the town, taking a part of the Gribble
district for it. The school house is
to be built on the south side of the
railroad track, opposite =. j. Burns's.
A. A. Thompson, state school in
spector, accompanied by f. w. Met
calf, county superintendent. was here
Tuesday taking notes in regard to
the condition Of our school house and
grounds, making suggestions TO the
board in regard to the same, and con-
ferring with the teao hers in regard to
the best methods of keeping the
school fully up to standard. We un-
derstand that he recommended that
the windows of the school be sup
piled with curtains, that clocks be
provided for each room, that holders
supplementary reading matter be
furnished, that the filthy clubhouse
(flthy both from sanitary and Il
moral standpoint) be cleaned, and
that screens Of some kind be built
around them. A prompt compliance
with these hints will not injure
the district in retaining state aid,
and is certain to benefit it in other
ways.
