Enforcing The Law.

Despite the silly protests of many
sentimental arJ chicke hearted citizens
who sought in every possible manner to
frustrate Justice, five bad men who had
committed the most outrageous crime in
the criminal arnals of Porto Rico, were
done to death, in accordance with the
law of the land. The garrote was used
and fortunately there was no unusual
suffering or agony inflicted upon the
condemned rnuderers.
These men should have been killed
long ago, and were it not for the wide.
spread feeling against the enforcement
Of the death penalty they would surely
have met their just fate over year
ago. IN the lignt Of the confessions
which were made by the men just be.
fore their deaths the people who sym
pathized with them SO far as to sign pc
titions for their pardon and to procure

foolish and sentimental, must certainly
feel that they have been misled. That
they were rnis1ed there can be no ques
ton, and that they also endeavored tc
mis1ead others they cannot deny.
The fortunate feature of the entire
case is the TACT that the officials charged
with carrying the law into effect die
not permit themselves to be carried
away by the popular feeling. If the

Causes of the Difference In Their
Respective Rates of Develop
ment.
by R. A. van Middeldyk.

When, in the coulse of evolution
there comes plethora of population in
any community, the exuberant portion
wanders off to some other where there
is Armenia and if this community
knows how to {" assinilate the new
comers, it will soon have materials for
expansion.
It is the difference in assimi1ating
POWER that exists between the Anglo
and Latin-American races that explains
the prodigious difference in their rates
of development. A comparison of the
rate of growth of population during the
last 100 years in two countries so close
to each other as Mexico and the United,
States, will illustrate this Taking dates
Of enumeration as neal as possible, we
find, on putting them in tabular form
striking contrast in their respective
increase Of population The figures for
1903 were estimated:

The President Has So Decided.

New York, June 4th.-According to
an interview printed in the Washington
Star President Roosevelt is credited
with having stated that the adninistra-
tion hadno idea of giving the Filipinos
self-government, and that this part OF
the administrative work would be
placed in the hands of Americans and
naturalized Filipinos.
The same paper is also authority for
a statement that the President was OF
the opinion that the Filipinos would
not be ready for self government for q.
least fifty years to come. Presiden.
Roosevelt freely admits having made
the above declaration, and the cabinet
stands with him in his final idea on the
subject.

The week has been a cool one,
though on the 18th the temperature
ranged from s4 to 90 degrees in
| western portions. There we're fre-
quel, showers in the southern third
| Of the State on the 18th. 18th and
10Th, the heaviest rains being in
the southwestern counties, with a
| weekly rainfall of 2.34 inches at
Worthington; in the northern two
thirds there was little or no rain
till the 18th, or morning Of the 18th.
Harvest has progressed favorably,
and about all of the grain is cut ex-
cept IN the Red River valley, and
there spring wheat and oats are be-
| ing harvested, and barley cutting is
well advanced Wheat is ripening
slowly and uneveDly, and in some
fields it is down so badly that har-
vesting is difficult Late wheat is
| doing we'll. In central portions OF
the State stacking and threshing
have been almost stopped by wet
weather. Stacking on small farms
| in the south was about finished be
fore the rains began, but on the
large farms there is still consider
able wheat in shock. the barley and
oats having been stacked first. Not
twithstanding the wet weather,
there are few complaints OF sprout-
ing in the shock. Flax cutting is
well advanced in the southern half.
Corn is doing well. but warmer.
weather is necessary for IFS best
development and maturity before
the coming of frost. The soil is so
soft il some southern counties from
the rains, that threshing machines
lcannot be moved. and in few
places even plowing is delayed. Il
lis thought thatsthe potato rot is in
Icreasiug. Tomatoes are not doing
we'll this season.
