Deserved a Monument.

Among the meritorious acts of the
late Illinois legislature was one to
erect a monument to the memory of
Mother Bickerdyke. She is buried in
Galesburg. She was a woman who
at the outbreak of the civil war went
to the front and devoted herself to
the care of the sick and wounded SOL
diers. The work she wrought was
appreciated and many a poor soul
blessed the soothing hand and the
tender sympathy of Mother Bicker-
dyke" for that was the name that
the boys called her. Her monument
will perpetuate the heroism which she
SO manifestly exhibited. For many
years she was notable figure at
army reunions. She removed in her
old age to Kansas, but at her death
she expressed a wish that she be
buried in her cid home in Galesburg,
and this was done.

Wanted, a Democrat.

Judge Carter was elected supreme
court justice nine years ago because
there was no politics in selecting
wearers of the judicial ermine. That
was the cry of the managers of his
canvass at that time and it was urg-
ed with solemn junction. But with
success came a change of tune. Be
cause a republican was elected in a
democratic district a republican leg
islature altered that district in the
belief that political power could be
perpetuated thereby. There was no
politics in the election, but politics
developed mighty quick thereafter!
There are only two democrats on
the supreme bench at the present
time, and yet the democratic party
cast As per cent of the total vote of
the state at the last election. Republi-
cans themselves should in all fairness
concede the election of Guy c. Scott
in this district.

Strange Exercise of the Veto Power

Gov. Yates pursued what appears
| to be an unreasonable course in the
exercise of his veto prerogative yes
terday when he killed the bill passed
| by the last legislature increasing the
salary of circuit judges from $500 to
$1,000 per annum. If there is any of
| flee more than another in the state
where the state should provide all
reasonable inducements to the best
men possible to fill it, it is the iudici-
airy. Apart from the work and re-
sponsibility that deserves the highest
proper compensation. the salary
should be such as to insure the serv-
ices of the most capable men that the
bar can offer for the duties. And I'M
der such circumstances $1,000 is little
enough. The governor applied the
pruning knife in the wrong place
when he cut out the provision for in
crease in the salary of circuit judges.
! The governor displayed a species of
! freakism yesterday in cutting down
the appropriation that he had asked
| for the executive mansion improve
ments $4,000. 1t is not to be implied
that the appropriation should not
have been reduced if possible. but the
total appropriation made by the legis-
lature was just what Gov. Yates ask
| ed for, and he would have been dis
| pleased had he failed to receive it.
The governor has applied the veto
to the house bill making il unlawful
for the judge in the circuit and SUI
preme courts to practice law in any
courts of the state or to act as at
torney or counsel for any person in
the state; also the bill to allow city
councils to open streets through
parks in certain cases, the bill to
close county offices at 5 in the after
noon. and has clipped $1,000 off the
appropriation for the Waterfowl in
sane hospital.

The legislature of New Hampshire

The legislature of New Hampshire
recently repealed the prOhibitOry law
which had been in operation since 1856
and substituted a local option meas
ure providing a minimum license fee
of $1,000 for the towns and more for
the cities. The first election under
this law was held Tuesday last. The
state has eleven cities and all of them
voted for license. One hundred out
of l35 towns voted against license. In
all the cities heretofore liquor has
been sold illegally and openly. The
new law means that hereafter the
public treasury will acquire revenue
from traffic that formerly was free.

WIN Fight Unconstitutional Law.

The Philadelphia newspapers in
tend to defy the new Pennsylvania
libel law which Gov. Pennypacker has
signed. Even the usually conserva-
tive among them say as much in their
editorial utterances. Gov. Penny
packer is roundIy roasted
The North American hurls full
first page broadside against Penny
packer and the bill, which it calls
his" The same papers cartoon per-
tains to the following quotation from
the governors statement:
~ cartoon in daily journal of
May , defines the question with en-
tire precision. An ugly little dwarf,
representing the governor of the com
monwealth, stands on a crude stool.
The stool is subordinate to and plac-
ed alongside huge printing press,
with the wheels as large as those of
an OK cart. All are so arranged as to
give the idea that when the press
starts the stool and its occupant will
be thrown to the ground.
Put into words, the cartoon as
serts to the world that the press is
above he law and greater in strength
than the government. In England. a
century ago, the offender would have
been drawn and quartered and his
head stuck upon a pole within the
gates

published this. 1t reprints it today,
with another picture showing the
press in action. The ugly little
dwarf has been hurled high in the
air, together with the pen which he
chinery. Printed newspapers are
dropping out and are piled around.
On each of them is a caricature of
the governor.
The Salus-Grady libel bill, signed by
Gov. Pennypacker, provides that COM
pensatory damages may be had
against the proprietor, publisher,
managing editor or owner of any
newspaper, joint stock company or
corporation, if it shall be shown that
the publication of certain news com
planned of resulted from negligence.
Damages may be obtained for in
iuries TO business and reputation re-
sulting from such publication, as well
as damages for the physical and mem
tai suffering endured by the injured
party, whenever it shall be shown
that the matter complained of is Ii
bclous and that such libelous matter
has been given special prominence by
the use of pictures, cartoons, head
lines, displayed type or any other
matter calculated to specially at
tract attention.
Newspapers ave required to print
each day the names of owners and
editor. Changes in management must
be duly noted. Violations of the act
are made misdemeanors punishable
with fines of $500.
The press comments in the Pitts
burg papers are severe. The morning
papers appear with cartoons of an in
offensive character. The Gazette
alone refers to the libel act, picturing
the governor darkening the lantern of
Diogenes in his search for honesty.
The newspaper men have resolved to
stand together and will test the law,
printing the news as heretofore.

Congressman Tawney, of MINES

Congressman Tawney, of Minneso-
ia, is the son of one blacksmith,
grandson of another and learned the
same trade himself in Mount Vernon
township, near Gettysburg, where he
was born in 1855. At the age of % he
went by boat to Winona, his present
home, where he landed with just 25
cents in his pocket. Two hours la
ter he was at work as blacksmith and
machinist. He remained in the same
shop four years, meantime studying
law. He practiced for some time af-
ter being admitted to the bar and was
then elected to congress, where he
has been for nearly twelve years.

Our Sister Territory Does Not Want

PHOENIX, AriZ., Feb. Although

quently suggested, it was never
given serious consideration here un
til the publication today of dispatch
es announcing that friends of the om-
nibus bill here and elsewhere were
favoring such a compromise. The
news created considerable excite
ment and CONSERVATION here and the
protest is almost universal. Upon the
assembling of the legislature today q
telegram was read from Delegate
Smith reciting the conditions and stat
ing that he was opposing the COM
promise. II his attitude was not in
accordance with the wishes of the
people he wanted to know it so he
could inform congress. A resolution
was passed opposing the comprom-
ise- 81
The opinion of nearly all those in
terviewed, both in official and com
mercial life. is that it must either he
statehood for Arizona or continuance
of the present status of the terri
tory.
There is no feeling against New
Mexico, but Arizona claims there Is
nothing in common with her racial
ly, commercially, politically or ots.er-
wise. and that the union of the two
would bring confusion in the adjust
ment of public debts, government,
laws and everything else.

that wore the gray there dared and
died with equal heroism in defense of
their convictions. Is this a just cOntri-
button of history?" Merely as an
historic marking of a great event, q
statue of Lee seems beyond criticism.
And it is no longer difficult for a
northerner to follow Col. Mcclure Ia
his belief hat Lee was also worthy
of being highly honored as a soldier
and a man. He was certainly a chief
tain whose genius will reflect i'm
mense credit upon American arms In
future years. AS Col. Mcclure points
out;
h 10Th century produced five great
commanders, whose names are inef-
faceably crystallized in it's history.
They were Napoleon, Wellington, Won
Moltke, Grant and Lee. Two of them
will go into history as great American
commanders, and the fame of both
has been perpetuated in scores of
statues and monuments in the north
may be summed up in this brief SEN
tence; "A model soldier: a Christian
gentleman" He was one of the gen.
tlest and most chivalrous OF men
from the beginning of our civil war un-
ill his death. He ever taught a. Lin
coin taught, with malice toward
none. with charity for ALL" and with
the fierce assaults made upon him in
the passions of the conflict, he never
uttered a single sentence of resent
ment. and no act or order Of Lee VOL
ated the accepted principle of humane
warfare. Every ~eye in the south
brightens at the mention of his name;
no southern name is SO generally and
sincerely respected throughout the en-
tire north, and the time has come
when he can be justly honored by a
statue on the field of Gettysburg as
one of our grandest illustrations Of
American heroism.

Ulysses S. Grant, Robert f. Lee. They
were all typical Americans and men
of the purest lives. and highest char

Recently it has been suggested as
appropriate to erect on the battlefield
of Gettysburg a statue to General Lee.
The veteran politician and writer,
Pennsylvania has taken the matter up
in earnest. On that subject we clip
from the Springfield Republican:
Col. A. X. Mcclure has taken up
this idea with much enthusiasm, his
plan being to have the statue erected
at the joint expense of the states OF
Virginia and Pennsylvania, In an adj

TIMBER LANDS.
An Ohio Company Secures Lands in
Valencia and Mckinley Counties.

The purchase of 10. 900 acres Of tim
Der land. adjoining the timber tract
of the American Lumber company in
Valencia and Mckinley counties at
$3.50 an acre, by Sumner B. Day, of
Elyria. Ohio, at Santa Fee is being
widely discussed throughout Albu-
querQue, says the JOurnal-Democrat.
This is considered the most i'm
portant sale ever made by the terri
torial land board.
Col. E. W. Dobson, local attorney
for the American Lumber company,
appeared before the board and bid in
opposition to the attorney for Mr.. Day
n his associates. The sum Of $4.25
was bid by Mr.. Dobson, for the land
sold, but when $3.50 was bid by the
Ohio company he refused to raise the
bid.
The company represented by Mr..
Day are In no way connected with
the American Lumber company. and
their operations will In no way inter-
fere with those of the American Lum-
Der company. The Ohio company will
manufacture their timber. and have
