Newspaper is Printed on Wall
Paper.

One of the curiosities of OWL
War journalism was unearthed in
the old rooms=of the State Histori-
cal Society on the fourth floor of
the State House. The precious
relic was discovered by State Arohi-
visit Virgil A. Lewis, while in the
process of removing the parapher-
naIla of the State Department of
Archives and History to the new
quarters in the Capitol Annex.
The curiosity consisted of a
newspaper printed two days before
the battle of Vicksburg in the city
of Vicksburg. The date of the
relic of war journalism is July 2.
1863. 1t is printed on piece of
wall paper, showing the dire straits
to which the publishers were dri-
ven, because of the existence of
the war. The city was besieged
from without and there was no
possible manner in which the edi-
tors of the Journal could issue their
paper, 1t is evidenced from this
sample of their newspaper enter
prise they tore off the paper which
adorned the editorial rooms, and
went $50 press just the same" "
The news items in the paper detail
the movements of the two armies
and predict a rebel defeat
Another relic found in the me-
lange of the room was picture of
Confederate soldiers on picket duty
amid the snow on the banks of
New river, in 1862. The sketch is
yellow with age. but will be clean

REFORMING THE SENATE.

Mr.. Robert Lincoln O'Brien's article
in the Outlook on the new men Of the
senate serves to remind one that not
.withstanding the failure to force
direct vote for senators changes are
being made in the personnel of that
body advantageous to the people.
Since the last election the people
have gained La Toilette, Hemenway.
Warner, Knox-men who are known to
be servants of the people. Then there
are other men, like Flint of California,
who will have to show where they
stand-against whom there is no pre-
JUDGE on account of their associations,
but who will have to show what they
are made of. There are still others,
like Buckley and Brandegee of Con-
necticut, who nave come into the SEN
ate with a machine stamp upon them
which it will take evidence to show
they did not voluntarily submit to. 1t
is too bad that the terms of a number
of useless polit clans, like Foraker Of
Ohio, do not expire until 1909 He and
men like him are still there, but on the
whole there has been some gain.
The significance of these changes in
the senate is that there must be power
full sentiment back of them or they
would never have been made under the
legislative system of elections. The
story of the new men in the senate is
one of hope. The senate can be
changed gradually, even under the
present plan of selection, if the people
are thoroughly earnest about it.
the movement for an improved sem
ate should go on parallel with the
movement for direct elections. Scrape
off the barnacles wherever it is posi-
BILE, and the new men will vote to
change the system.
The reign of the Aldricnes and Platts
need not go on forever merely because
the machinery of ousting them is cum
bersome. If it is hard to apply, give it
more application.

ANOTHER BIG SHOWER
Half an Inch of Rain Fell Last Mich,
and Today.

Showery weather predicted by OBJ
server Newman yesterday developed
into the second biggest rain of the
fall before the deluge let up, shortly
before noon today. The weather
gauge at the weather office showed
that nearly half an inch of rain fell
between 10 o'clock last night and
1880 o'clock this forenoon, bringing
the total rainfall for the month up
to II of an inch. Forecasts sent out
today predict more rain for tonight
and tomorrow
Despite the downpour this morning
many people were on the Streets and
business houses reported a good trade
Women clothed in raincoats and arm
ed with umbrellas plunged through
pools of water standing everywhere
and seemed to enjoy the novelty. The
rain was the heaviest between and
10 o'clock and little rivers coursed
down the pavements into the sew
ers. On the unpaved streets pools
in many places two to three inches
deep formed.

GERMANY SEES THE POINT.

The Anglo japanese treaty is re-
ceived with little favor in Germany.
The government gives it out that it sees
nothing Objectionable in the treaty, but
the whole German press condemns it,
which is rather more significant than
the governments guarded expression of
Indifference. The Lokal Anzeiger takes
the position that the proper answer
should be the conclusion of Russo
German treaty into which France
might be drawn. The Tageblatt says
England has abandoned her splendid
isola ton only to drive the civilized
world into the camp of her enemies.
The German view is not shared by
the French press. The newspapers OF
Paris generally express the opinion that
inasmuch as the treaty maintains the
status quo it is satisfactory to France.
France is not seeking territorial ex-
pansion in the Orient. French Indo-
China gives her all she needs and the
guarantee in the treaty that she shall
have this undisturbed is pleasing to
France Undoubtedly the recent res
toration of good feeling between France
and England promoted by King Edward
led to an exchange of views between
the two governments as to the coming
treaty and England took occasion to
show France that her eastern interests
would not be menaced. When this was
understood there was no risk in the
publication of the treaty.
The difference between the position
of Germany and France is that the
former has not secured anything like
what she would like to have in China.
Indeed, she has hardly foothold there
and the treaty makes it impossible for
her to acquire more. Should she try
would receive prompt intimation from
Japan that China was not for forced
aggression would have to be acquiesced
in unless Germany wished to fight both
Japan and Great Britain.
Shut out for ten years at least from
aggression in China, the restless kaiser
will undoubtedly turn his attention
elsewhere. South America and South
Africa are the only portions of the
world left for him to exploit. In South
America he runs against the Monroe
doctrine and the United States. In
Africa he has large tracts of territory,
but unfortunately at present he is get
ting more exercise than profit out of
them because of the contumacy of the
natives.
Beyond question the Anglo Japanese
treaty will make the upholding of the
Monroe doctrine a more delicate mat
ter than ever before, because German
subjects are numerous in Brazil and
the Argentine, and the kaiser would
gladly stir up trouble with the re-
publics down there if it would bring
him into the field as a protector of
German interests. An India or Egypt
in Brazil would suit him down to the
ground.

and, whether he Is caught and slain

The young lady was educated for re-

learned to speak English before she
left there She wears American
clothes in this country, because she

be much better off If they adopted
Chinese feminine garments. She is
pretty and dainty girl, with a strong
intellect and deep, serious thoughts. At

course, studying especially pedagogy
and civil government in order that she
may teach the Chinese when she re-
turns home She will work especially
