JAPAN'S HONORS TO DEAD
HERO OF TOGO'S FLEET

with the attributes of greatness. A
famous athlete. scholar and a SOL
dier-such was Commander Hirose
during his strenuous life.
1t does not fall to the lot of the aver
age mortal to have two burials, but
such has been the fate of this distin-
guished officer. The Russians recently
recovered the larger portion of the re-
mains near Port Arthur, and inferred
them with all honor. On the day Of
the burial in Toxic I was discussing
the subject with a young student, and
remarked that the commander would
not rest in peace in Russian soil. My
companion smiled grimly and replied:
1T will not be Russian soil very much
longer!"
1 have spoken of the common atti-
tude of the Japanese towards death.
No European or American, ignorant Of
the reason for the enormous crowds
that lined the route of the funeral pro-
cession, could have guessed from the
faces around him that the occasion was
in any way melancholy one. On the
contrary, everybody appeared to be in
the best of spirits. Doubtless young
Japan envied the commander his
heroic exit, and would fain have emu
lated his fame, while to the believer,
whether Shinto or Buddhist, the GER
tainty of a felicitous future state for
the spirit of the departed could but
constitute motive for rejoicing rather
than for mourning.
THE FUNERAL.
The official religion of Japan today is
Shinto, and the commander was there
fore given Shinto burial. The funeral
cortege left the Naval Club in Tsukiji
about noon. The weather was perfect,
and all Toxic focked to witness the
spectacle. The majority of the foreign
onlookers assembled at the Imperial
Hotel and Joined the body of general
mOurners who accompanied the funeral
TO the Aoyama cemetery.
The weird wall OF the "shono-fue," a
peculiar pipe blown by the priests,
intimated the approach of the process
sion. Here the foreigner recognized old
Japan. Soon came the contrast, Ior
just as the two mounted policemen,
who headed the procession, hove in
sight. the naval band struck UP with
splendid effect the superb funeral
march of Chopin. And yet after all
this seeming incongruity was not so
very incongruous. for was not Chopin
himself a native OF the land which Of
all others. perhaps, had most reason to
hate the name of Russia? The guard
of honor consisted of two hundred
bluejackets from Yokosuka - fine,
sturdy fellows whose faces testified to
an unfeigned sorrow. Perhaps the

the terrible struggle which he had just

he was, but l will never forget him be-
cause he lived in one Of my fathers
houses and was often at our house.
My father and his uncle owned a block
OF houses on Metcalf street known as

Lee stopped at No. s.
He was there for five weeks, tust
about the length Of time for which
nave heard since he was missing, and
none of his best friends even knew
where he was. He often dropped in to
discuss the recent events in the United
states with my father, and every one
liked him on account Of his dignified,
stately and kind ways.
although he evidently had come
without telling any one in the south
of his intention. he made no secret in
Montreal Of his identity and ne was
shown many attentions and every re-
pect, for his reputation had preceded
him and~he was among our heroes of
the hour.

my father frequently mention the time
when General Lee had been our next
door neighbor, so he became indelibly

the fusionists spent in new buildings
and betterments at Hastings, He could
see the farm that the republicans
bought at Beatrice, but he could not
see he farm that the fusioniSts bought
at Hastings. He could see the $1,000
republican barn at the Lincoln insane

fusionists spent on new buildings and

This republican official statement in
trying to explain to indignant tax
payers an extrayagant charge Of ST.
$685. 900 says they spent $500 at Beat
rice for cold storage plant and
kitchen, but he leaves the other half
of the truth untold, that the fusiOnists
built four new buildings and made
permanent betterments there to the
amount of $4,000. He pleads with the
taxpayers to remember that the re-
publicans spent $4,000 for chapel
a'ldine at Peru, but he wants them
to forget thaf tisn f,;s. s.eniats built q
new dormitory for the normal sc60szz

standpipe at Norfolk, but forgets that
the people can see three fusion stand
pipes, one at Hastings, one at Peru,
and one at Grand Island.
/ have not the full record here, but
the fusionists spent something near
100000 on new buildings and better
ments at the state university. They
spent 100000 for the Trans Mississippi
exposition. They bought an executive
mansion at Lincoln. They built about
|a dozen new buildings during their

COWARDLY CANDIDATES

Recently The Independent addressed
a communication to each Of the can
didates for congress in the state Of
Nebraska on both the fusion and re-
publican tickets, inquiring whether it
elected these candidates would pledge
the people Of their districts not to ac-
cept railroad passes or other favots
from public service or other corpora
tlons.
A communication was also sent 10
each of the candidates on these tickets
for state Offices, asking the same ques-

The Independent is glad to state that
every candidate on the state ticket
nominated by the populists and demo-
Gratis at Lincoln, August 10, has le-
piled in manly way, unequivocaliy
stating his position upon the pass
question. Not only have all these can
uldates stated their positions very
pointedly upon this question, but with
out exception they have pledged them
selves not to accept either passes or
other favors from any public service or
other corporations. Every one of these
candidates has stated that he beliyed,
