at once the center of business and the
scene OF uproar, riot and confusion. In
the comparative nakedness of the women,
in the noise and violence of the shop
Keepers, there is nothing to suggest the
delicate culture of Japan. The modesty,
cleanliness and politeness so Characteristic
OF the Japanese are couspieuously absent
in their Settlements in this country. Trans
formation has taken place with trans
migration. The merchant has become a
rowdy; the coohe is impudent, violent
and, in general, an outcast more prone to
steal than TO work. Master and man alike
terrorize the Koreans, who go in fear of
their lives whenever they have transac-
tons with the japanese.
The book was written before the war.
1t is entitled "korea," and was published
in London.

STRAWBERRIES GROW
ON ONE SIDE---ICE IL
INCHES THICK ON OTHER

Nature has worked many miracles in
the West. One of the most phenomenal is
the Valley of the Vegas in New Mexico.
This is a narrow valley across which
one may nearly throw stone. 1t so lies
that one side of the valley gets the sun
nearly the whole day and the other side
never, for when the great orb has trav-
ersed the heavens to a point where it
might look over the top of the mountain
on one side, the top of the tall peak on the
other side shuts off the rays from the val
ley beneath.
On the sun-kissed side of the canyon
nature has set some wonder springs.
They are known as the Los Vegas hot
springs, and they continually send out of
the earth streams of pure crystal water,
boiling hot from an internal heating sys-
tenn, the secrets of which are unknown
to man.
These springs, as well as the sunshine,
have a moderating effect upon the tenn
perature of that side Of the valley.
Just now, upon the sunny side of the
valley flowers are blooming, foliage Is
luxuriant, Strawberries are ripening and
children are running about in the sun
shine barefooted and bareheaded, while
few rods away, on the other side OF
the valley, men are harvesting ice IA
inches in thickness.

HERR MOST was billed to lecture
in a st. Louis hall one night last
week; but when a crowd had gath
cred to hear him, a lot of police
men arrested the speaker and his
agent and hiked them off to the
lookup. The subject on which
Mr.. Most intended to lecture was
"Anarchism." Now, | am to a
considerable extent, an anarchist
myself, in that I believe we have a
great deal too much law, some Of it
subversive of the rights for which
the Revolutionary Fathers fought,
bled and died. Am I, therefore,
an outlaw, subject to the will of
every uniformed jack-in- office who
disagrees with me in opinion?
Must I compass my thought with
his diminutive brain, and not cross
the bounds he sets for me? My
right to believe in and advocate
less law is no greater than attaches
to him who peacefully and logic
ally urges the abrogation of all
law. The arrest Of the men named
was an outrage-a bit ofanarchism
under color of law moro dangerous
to the State than hundred lee
lures from a hundred Herr Mosts.

DR.. BOYD is no longer pastor of
the Second Baptist Church of st.
Louis, having rendered his resig-
nation last Sunday. "Too much
politics" had made a gulf between
him and a portion Of his congrega-
tion that refused to be bridged.
There are other ministers in that
city who would not injure the
cause of the church by initiating his
action. The preacher in politics is
the most intolerant of partisans
and therefore by no means a safe
guide or counselor in affairs of
OF State. There is no secular com =
pensa ton for the loss to the SER
vice of the Master when the pulpit
is exchanged for the hustings.

Now that the retirement of SEN
ator Cockrell from Office is assured,
he appears to be more popular with
the Republicans than with his own
party. Office-holding is the only
sure passport to Democratic popu-
larity .--BloomJfeld Courier.
Among Republicans, on the 9TH

popular, since the patriots "out''
at once become the foes of the

plain Senator Cockrell's new-found
favor with his old-time political
enemies?

THE Poplar Bluff Citizen: "In
1900 Mckinley received 7,217,S10
popular votes and Bryan received
6,357,S26. The last election gave
Roosevelt 1854, ,S91 and Parker s.
200,665. Tt will be seen from these
figures that Roosevelt received
437,0S1 votes more than Mckinley,
while Bryan received 1857, 161
more votes than Parker. Some
one must have forgotten to vote.
The cause of the recent landslide
is too plain to warrant comment.
It was not due to the Republicans
popularity, but to the large stay
at-home vote among the Demo-
Gratis. The cause for the Demo-
Gratis not voting is equally plain.
The Democratic party was gold
bricked at St. Louis. A man and
platform was forced upon the
party that were not only unpopular
but very repugnant to those who
fought the battles of the party in
1896 and 1900. The rank and file
of the party would not accept the
bolter's candidate and platform.
While they did not get out and
fight the ticket as these Eastern
gold bugs did in the two previous
campaigns, they refused to vote
and gave the "reorganizers" and
"safe and sane" gang plenty of
rope and stood by and witnessed
the self execution"

little ranch on Big Beaver creek. It's smaller than the others but there's more water there and you, are to have 1000 head of cattlet
 So on down the line to the five men with whom he had been closely associated during his life in the West Gid he give each a ranch and the cattle 10 stock 1t. To the men with whom he had not been so closely allied, but who worked for him. he gave cattle by the hundreds and then dismissing all but his five friends, he said:
 Boys, beneath the head of my bed you'll md an iron box. It's locked and here's the key. I want one of you to take that key and throw it in the creek, now. When I've 'cashed in, I want you individually to see that that box is buried with me-unopened, mind. I think l can trust you, but for Gods sake don't look so glum.''
 As they filed out the door they heard him bumming a bordertown song, the first words of which were, "Oh, bury me deep on the lone prairie-eI' and when they again entered the room he was dead.
 THE MONUMENT.
 The five friends were faithful. The spot where his tomb now stands was chosen and Bridges was buried there. Cowboys for hundreds of miles around, when they heard that Bridges was dead came to the funeral, which even if somewhat crude, was the most magni- ffcent ever held up to that time in the Texas Panhandle Upon the dead mans chest within the coffin, which was homemade affair, rested the lit- tie iron box-unopened. And there, for naught anyone knows, it still remains.
 After the funeral the five friends to- gether with nearly 100 other friends were assembled at the ranch house. Let's build him a monument" some one. suggested. The five friends, how ever, refused to let the others in, but between themselves made up a pool of $2,000. With this sum they had the monolith which marks the grave made and carried across the plains from Garden City in a wagon. The iron fence, surrounding the grave, was added later as 1t was found the cattle rubbed against the huge pillar and 1t. was feared they would eventually thrust it over.
