THE FELLOW THAT'S GGINCa

You may talk aboat your battle scarce
heroes,
OF martyrs and all the rest,
But there's another think just as
worthy
The fellow that's doing his best.
He doesn't wear gold braid and tinsel,
Nor ride on HE waves highest crest ,
But he's always where duty demands
him
This fellow that's doing his best
No trumpet blare tells of his coming,
For fame he is never in qu4s
But he's alwal hero, this fellow
Who is always found doing his best.
And I'm sure in the day of the judg-
ment,
When many shall fail at the test.
There'll be one who will pass without
trouble
The fellow that's doing his best.
And the gates of the heavenly city,
The beautiful home Of the best.

call him the little white father.
They have wrongs that they
want righted. Their hours of
labor are too long. Eleven and
twelve hours every day is too
much. The wages are SO low
that they cannot procure the
necessities of life. The taxes
are high, and growing higher, to
meet the expense of the Japan

"A Ancient Tn.tltution. Doubtless OF
Jewish Origin.
We must doubtless look to the. Jews
for the origin OF godfathers and god
mothers. The Use Of them in the primi-
tive church is so early that it is not
easy to fix 4 time for their beginning
Some OF the most ancient fathers make
mention Of them, and through all the
successive ages aftcrUard We find the
tee Of them continued without any in
corruption. BY Il constitution of Ed
muad, archbishop CT Canterbury, 1896,
and in a synod held at Worcester
40, a provision was made that there
should be for every male child two
rodfatLers and ore godmotEcr and for
every female one godfather and two
~odmothers. King Henry VIII. rcecr-
ring to the Princess Elizabeth, says:
My lord Of Canterbury
I have suit which yea must not deny
me
That is, a fair young maid that yet wants
baptism.
You must be godfather and answer for
her.
Henry VIII" Act 8. Scene 3.
\ constitution Of 1891 makes provi-
sioa for a Christian name being
changed at confirmation. This Is prac-
tically a remaining of the child. The
manner in which it was done was for
the bishop to use the name in the invo-
cation AMI afterWard for him 10 sign a
certificate that he had 50 confirmed n
person By slch new name. 1t is posi-
bic that this practice might have been
in ShakesDeare's mind when he wrote:

ABOUT OUR NEW YEARS EDITION

ABOUT OUR NEW Y EARS EDITION
Our brethren of the press have
very generally made kindly
mention of the New Years edi-
ton of the Echo.
You make US blush, gentle
men, and we have not the cheek
to print all the nice things you
had to say about the Echo You
were generous enough to men
ton only what you considered
the good points, and charitable
enough to overlook the faults
and errors, for all of which we
beg you to accept our gratitude.
That it was full of errors, and
lacked in every part all the quail
ties of perfection, we know quite
we'll. A man cannot do his best
and work from 90 to q hours out
of every "a for nearly eight
days. Some distressing errors
might have been avoided had we
not been compelled to draw too
heavily on our physical vitality.
We did not get the satisfaction
out of it that comes from work
well done, it was too faulty. AS
for our material reward, well,
we may get that in the sweet
bye and bye.
Beyond the display advertise
ments and the bare cost of the
half tones of the business houses
we did not receive So much as q
cent from anyone. This, though,
may have been because we did
not have enough courage to ask
for it.
We have an interest in the
town and faith in its future. La
the past year we have made a
number of warm friends whose
support and good will we value,
and to convince them that we
were willing to share our part
of the burden of letting the
world know there was such a
town as Leavenworth on the
map, we got out that new years
number, even though it had to be
done at the expense of some en-
ergy and small financial loss
hoping that it would attract at
tentiOn to this section, and aid in
developing the natural resources
of 1.-The country and thus be a
benefit to them.
We also indulge the hope that
indirectly and remotely the
spending of some money and en-
ergy would benefit the Echo. So
we do not claim that the getting
out of a special edition was not
unmixed with selfishness.
And now in conclusion it is but
fair to say that the press work
was done by the Wenatche Re
public. Six thousand impress
sions was too much for our old
Washington. You wrung this con
fession from us by compliment,
airy comment that we do not
deserve.

THE HY ENA

In the books on zoology there
is described an animal that is 50
repulsive and loathsome that one
involuntarily shudders when
reading about it. 1t is called the
hy8na. Those who have seen
one of these animals in captivity
will remember the restless, un-
slightly, repulsive appearance of
this nocturnal visitant of human
burying grounds-this skull1ing
beast that never ventures out in
daylight, that prefers to feed
upon nothing so much as the
corpse of some human being.
Though large, and possessed of
the most power full jaws of all
the animals, so pusillanimous is
it that it never attacks anything
but barn yard fowls and rabbits,
upon which it pounces in the
dark.
There is another animal that
in all but its structural charac
teristics resembles the hy@na

believe the facts and the true
condition of affairs is kept from
the little white father" by his
ministers and those that surround
his person. They want to speak
to him personally and tell him
of their wrongs. Their mission
is peaceful. There is no wrong
in their hearts, but they are ter
ribly in earnest this time. These
men with the patience of an OK,
who have borne their wrongs for
generations, do not mean to be
stopped by the red tape of Rus
sian officialism. They have the
spirit of men who know their
wrongs, and know what, as hui
man being, they are entitled to.
They want q hearing from an
other human being who has it in
his power to right their wrongs.
Why should soldiers and Of
ficers stand between them and
this other human being, the Gilt
tie white father In their heart
! of hearts they know that no
harm is intended. Armed with
the justice of their cause they
march on. Hedged about with
the armour of righteousness
they fear not, and march 90. On
to the palace of the car To
him they would speak. Only
speak.
The men behind the guns will
not shoot. They are their
brethren. They, too, know the
wrongs.
The body of working men
march on. On to the gates of
the palace. They are ordered to
halt, and commanded to dispense.
But they will not. They are in
earnest this time, these men of
toll.
The men behind the guns will
shoot. First blank cartridges
Still they press on. Then solid
balls, into the midst of the peace
able petitioners.
The Russian government cries
havoc, and let's slip the dogs of
war-the beasts with the fiery
eyes, with red mouths and long
fangs.
The snow in the streets of the
Russian capital is red with the
blood of her own people. Hun
dreds go down to rise no more.
Men. women and children loose
their lives on a peaceful mission
bent.
Brother is commanded by su
perior officer to shoot his brother.
Long accustomed to obey he does
shoot, and Stays his brother.
Yesterday it was a peaceful
protest. Today it is a revolt.
Tomorrow it will be revolution.
The end no man can foretel.
Man, who stands upon the very
pinnacle of civilization, endowed
with the godlike attribute Of
mercy, when aroused becomes a
monster of ferocity. Such hui
man monster as was developed
in the French revolution in
Robespierre and Marat.
