sion to deny in emphatic terms the asser-

Mr.. Roosevelt %"belonged in the category
of those whose ambition is greater than
their patriotism" but unfortunately the
effect of Mr.. Hanna's words was to con-
vey the idea that he desired to exploit
rather than dissipate the very assertion
which he denied. Concluding, Mr.. Hanna
reminded his hearers in emphatic terms
that this country is a nation of parties
and not of heroes, that it has Il govern

CONDITION OF O

: The Weather Bureau Tuesday issued
the following weekly summary of crop
conditions:
Excessive rains in the Lower Missouri,
Central Mississippi, and Ohio Valleys,
Tennessee, the Carolinas, and Georgia
have interrupted farm work and caused
great damage to crops, especially in the
Central Mississippi and Lower Missouri
Valleys, the food stage in the Mississippi
River at St. Louis being the highest since
1858, and that in the Missouri River at
Kansas City since 1914. The protracted
and probably unprecedent spring drouth
continues unbroken in Northern New
England and in Eastern New York Qhe
weather map of June 9 shows light rains
have fallen over much of this drought
area in the twenty-four hours ending 8 a.
M. of this date). Portions of the upper
Lake region, Central and West Gulf
States, North Dakota, and Montana are
in need of rain. Higly favorable tenn
perature conditions prevailed in the
Rocky Mountain States, but in the Pa
cifc Coast the week was very hot and
dry especially in California and Oregon,
while the early part of the week in the
Central and West Gulf States was too
cool.
Much corn remains to be planted in
the Missouri, Mississippi, and Ohio Val
leys, where the early planted is greatly
in need of cultivation, and much has been
drowned. Planting has resumed in Ne
braska and Iowa during the latter part of
the week, where under the most favor
able future conditions the acreage will
be reduced. Under more favorable condi-
tons planting in the Middle Atlantic
States has been finished.
"Rust in winter wheat is very generally
reported from the Ohio, Central Mis-
sissippi, and Lower Missouri Valleys, and
in the two last-named districts the crop
has sustained much damage from floods.
In the Lake region, Middle Atlantic

The families of two Boer generals,
Snyman and Fouche, arrived at New
York last week on their way to the
new Boer colony in chihuahua, Next
&C Fifty families are to follow soon.
General Snyman explained that the
chief objection to locating the colony
in the United States was the immigra-
ton law. His people did not want to
be classed as ordinary immigrants, be-
ing impoverished by the war. The
immigration laws of this country seem
to be framed to keep out desirable and
admit undesirable immi grants. The
vicious scourings Of Europe have full
access, while the Woodworking and
quietly disposed Chinese, who would
be of great assistance to the farmers,
are excluded, as would also appear to
be the case with the Beers.

States, and over the northern portion of
the Southern States an improvement is
generally noted. Harvesting is progress
ing rapidly in Texas. and has begun in
California, where early wheat promises
good yield. In Washington and Oregon,
winter wheat has made favorable adj
vancement, but short heads are reported
from Oregon and poor stands from por.
tons Of Washington.
"Spring wheat continues in very prom
Using condition in the Dakotas and gen
orally in Minnesota. On the north Pac-
fc coast spring wheat, while needing
rain, is doing we'll in portions Of Wash
ington.
"The outlook for oats in New York
and Pennsylvania is very poor; in the
Ohio Valley a general improvement is
indicated; in the upper Mississippi and
Missouri valleys, where not damaged by
floods, crop is in a promising condition.
"The week as a whole has been very
favorable for transrlanting tobacco,
which is nearly completed over about
three-fourths of the tobacco area, having
made favorable progress in all districts.
Good stands are generally indicated and
the plants are starting nicely"

COAL ROADS AND COAL
PRICES

While the Interstate Commerce
Commission has not, in its New York
investigation Of the business methods
of coal roads and coal companies,
brought to light any new or startling
facts, says the Baltimore "American,"
the evidence makes it plain that Meth
er MI. Baer nor any other president
of a coal road or coal company has
any intention OF receding from the po-
sition taken before and during the
long strike OF last fall and winter.
President Baer is the leader and the
principal spokesman for this group OF
officials, and since the day when he
declared that they were divinely ap-
pointed trustees of valuable property
he has maintained an attitude Of su-
percilious disregard OF public rights
in either the mining or distribution of
coal, in the management of the mines
or in the methods employed to carry
the fuel to market.
It is utterly useless for President
Baer to maintain that there can be no
profit in the coal mines and carrying
trade unless high prices are charged
for the product. The companies by
which he is employed and Of which he
is head certainly do not hire him to
lose money for them, and yet he would
have the public believe that both the
Reading Railroad and its company
ally are run with a deficit, due to
greater expenditures than receipts.
President Baer and others in similar
positions are men of wealth, ard their
money has been acquired through the
operations of the corporations with
which they are connected. They are
not holding these important positions
from philanthropic motives or from a
desire to win fame in this way, but be-
cause of the fortunes put within their
reach by the unusual opportunities
offered them for regulating the coal
prices.
This is the kernel OF the matter,
and, holding this view, it is not diff
cult to explain the causes of the most
of the troubles at the mines and the
high prices for coal, Which are to-day
far above a reasonable figure. There
is an abundance of coal in the anthra-
cite region, but the operators know
that if they keep the market well sup
piled the prices will fall and their pro-
fits be reduced. To keep the supply
down it is necessary to reduce the
working force at the mines or to limit
the hours or the individual output,
and at the same time to keep wages at
a minimum. A policy with these ends
in view means constant friction be-
tween operators and miners, and in
vites Just such disastrous and expen-
sive strikes as have repeatedly occur
red at the mines within the past few
years. The claim of these coal presi-
dents that neither the general govern
ment nor state governments have any,
thing to do with such conditions is at
surd. The government has a right and
a duty to see that the public interest
in the fuel supply is amply protected,
and that the conditions which pre-
vailed last winter are not repeated.

A TOAST.

a IOASI.
In the secret recesses of the heart is
a shrine, a temple, a holy of holies; in
it we store our treasures, those that are
too sacred to expose to the common eye
There we keep our idols, these are often
memories of a pleasant smile when the
world seemed dark and dreary, the recol-
lection Of kindnesses and tayors, not much
in the eyes of the world, but of mex
pressible pleasure and benefit to us. For
four years we have here in dear old
Peace been fitting this store house with
thought and memories that the world
can neither give nor takd away and in
the night time of sorrow and care which
will certainly fall to each of our lots,
we can draw strength and inspiration
from this treasury.
When our minds wander back to these
happy days the first memory will bring
out clearly the grand old man, who has
been the General who has managed all
the forces in this drill ground, preparing
us for the great battle of life Long
may he live, and happy and blessed be
his declining years, is the earnest prayer
OF the Glass of 1903"
And to each member of his family, and
to each one of his very efficient officers,
We desire to acknowledge our many OBJ
legations; they have not simply done their
duty; they have done more; they have
not only taught us the goodness of knowl
edge, but have also by their lives and
example have taught us the goodness of
God.
To the young ladies who will spend,
some one, some two and some three years
within these hallowed walls we thank
you for your unfailing friendship, for the
subtle flattery of the reverence you have
given to us dignifed seniors, and we hope
that as 'Ye have sown that also will We
reap"
Tn leaving these halls and grounds with
SO many sacred memories clustering
around them, we leave bookcase as a
souvenir of US to keep from being en-
tirely forgotten. Now from DR.. Dinwiddie
down to the smallest tot, 'The Clasa OF
1903" wishes you Gods richest blessings
