NEW VERSION OF 20. K"

Now comes q fourth version. Gen J.
Warren Keifer. in the Archaeological
Quarterly. says that in Urbana, Ohio,
IN 1910. Wen the Harrison campaign
was IN progress, q Whig farmer drove
into town with this legend painted on
his wagon: The people is OIL Kor-
Feet- The Democrats made fun OF the
3pelling. but a Whig tavern keeper
near Springfield stuck the letters
o X. over his door, where they re-
NAMED until the building was torn
down in 1901. This seems more prob
able than any OF the other statements.
The use of 20. k however II started,
has lcng been widespread and respec-

INDIA HAS VAST
HIDDEN H0ARDS
Misgovernment Has Taught People to
Secret Treasures.

1t would be an immense beneht 10 an
mankind II the stores OF gold now held
by individuals IN india could De nlAde
available for general use, says writer
in Spare Moments
: Ever since the dawn of history that
country has been gathering gold and
aiding 1t away. Treasures Of almost In
caiculabIe value are possessed by many
Indian princes. When the Mahara5ah OF
Burdwan died. the stock Of gold and sill
yer left By him was so large that no
member Of the family could make an
accurate estimate OF It. A report made
10 the British government by a secret
agent stated that on the estate of the
defunet potentate were number OF
treasure-houses. one of them containing
three rooms.
A Gold Heap.
The largest of these three rooms was
forty-eight feet long. and was filled
with ornaments of gold and silver. plates
and cups. washine bowls, jugs and so
forth-all of precious metals. The other
two rooms were fun of bags and boxes
OF gold mohurs and silver rupees. The
door of this and other treasure-hOuses
had been bricked up for nobody knows
how long
cient custom, were IN the custody OF
the mahara5ah's wife. the vaults being
attached TO her apartments. but none
OF them was allowed to be opened
save in the presence Of the master. one
vault was dlled with ornaments belong
ing TO different gods of the family. The
natives Of India commonly bury their
hoa rds, and among the poorer classes
Z 1aVOTite hidin~ place Is a hole dug
beneath the bed. Disused wells are some
times employed for the same purpose.
Hoards Lost FoTeves.
II is undoubtedly a fact that very
many boards thus deposited are lost for
ever Gold is also valued on religious
grounds. The gods take up great guam
titles Of gold. silver and precious stones
The temples contain vast amounts ot the
yellow and white metals. The habit oi
boarding seems 10 have been induced BY
ages Of TnisgovernEnent. during which
oppression and violence were rife. M
feeling of safety existing. il was nat
ural that the natives should adopt tbs
practice Of reducing their wealth. to :
concentrated shape and hiding II.
Thus. in case of emergency the family
IN easy reach. and rObberies or othel
enemies were not likely to get hold oi
them Meanwhile, century after cen
tury. the exnorts Of india have greatly
exceeded the imports OF that country
and. consequently, an uninterrupted
stream Of gold and silver has flowed
thtther- The country IS indeed a bottom
less we'll. into which a stream of treas
pre -Derpetually flows.

GERMANY IN SOUTHWEST AFRICA

Germany has been having bad for.
tune In her colony In southwest Africa.
The latest news from there chronicles
the capture OF the German garrison
at Warmbad by the insurgent natives,
which Is merely the elimination of
a long series OF reverses. The total
area OF Germany's possessions In
southwest Africa Is estimated at &c.,
900 square miles. which Is about the
size OF Texas and half OF New Mex.
leo. IL has native population Of 200.
900 and about 300 European inhab.
itants. principally Germans. The gar
rlson at the beginning Of 1905 was es-
timated at a little less than 1000.
There has been very little profit for
Germany In her colonies In Africa
says the st. Louis Globe Democrat
either In the eastern or In the south.
western part OF that continent. She
has had troubles from the beginning.
They have been more serious than our
disturbances inthe Philippines. for in
our case the end Of troubles has prob.
ably been reached, practically speak
ing. The Philippines, of course, is an
UNNECESSARILY richer territory than
anything that Germany has in Asia or
Africa. The resources In timber of
the more valuable kind in the Philip
pines are virtually inexhaustible.
Traces Of extensive mineral wealth
have also been found.
Great difficulty attends the govern
ing of inferior races. We have dis
covered that In our short experience
on the other side of the globe, not to
mention our connection with the In
dams at home. Arrogance and graft
are apt to characterize the controlling
race, as 1t did to some extent with us
In the case of the Indians. On the
score Of arrogance, however, we have
fewer sins than have been charged to
the Germans In southwest Africa. Ac.
cusations Of graft, too, have been
made against them. 1t Is certain that
German rule Is very obnoxious to the
Hottentots, Bushmen and Damara
peoples, which make up the bulk OF
the wild tribes Of that quarter of the
world. For the moment, at least,
German authority in southwest At
RIGA seems to have been subverted. It
may be restored e%vntually, but the
German people, who have to foot the
bills. will be apt to ask their govern.
ment II this sort Of colonization pays.

OUR NAVAL SECRETARY.

Barking against Mr.. Bonaparte as
Secretary Of the Navy because he Is
independent in local politics shows
the penury to which partisan enthu.
siasts are frequently reduced in the
matter of intelligence. Even II the
new Secretary had been a Democrat
in national elections, the crime of
putting him In the cabinet would have
seemed to us not amng the most helm
Gus, but as he is a thorough Repu-
blican II is doubly ridiculous to see
his impartial hostility to both mach
ines in MARYLAND, forcing politicians
to brand him as a Democrat. One
of the things we most need to learn, ii
we are to have honest state and city
governments In the United States, is
that mayors. aldermen. state legis-
lators. governors, and commissioners
of public works are to be judged not
from their views of Thomas Jefferson.
the Philippines. tariff reform, or dip
lomacy in the Orient, but from their
honesty and fitness for the task with
which they are intrusted. Few men
of our time have made this distinction
more successfully than Mr.. Bonaparte.
He has been member of a party with
out being irr~elevantly and foolishly a
partisan. His standards of civic life
are high, he Is eminent in his profess
sion, fearless In his acts. and Of such
general intelligence that he will do
something to stem the degeneracy of
the cabinet since McKinley'S death. He
agrees with the president about the
navy. although his voice Is not so
rancous. and altogether the selection
Is one In which the country should
