Push work on Canal and discourage Reckless,
Expenditure OF Publec Funds.

We should advance as rapidly as
possible the great constructive work
Of the Panama canal, so that its bene-
fits TO the worlds commerce and
civilization will be speedy realized,
and hope that this great gat, way of
the worlds commerce will strengthen
the friendship of all nations for the
Republic. These would, il seems to
me, be the most desirable things for
which we could hope, and we should
also hope for an increasing recognition
OF the responsibility resting upon the
citizenship, for the economical legisla-
ton of Congress in support of all legit-
innate public policies, but the dis
couragement of expenditure of public
money for policies which do not prop
crly belong to the domain Of Federal
power, and for the maintenance and
respect Of law throughout the whole
Republic.

THE REPUBLICAN inadvertently
laid aside the following letter from
Wellsvile intended for our last issue.
We regret this and offer apologies to
the writer.
"Dannie Stuart, an old and respect
ed citizen of Welsville is dead He
came in 1860 and leaves a large family.
Funeral services were held Friday.
The speakers paid him high tribute.
Another death took place about the
same time and the funeral was held
the same day. This was a young child
of Edward w. and Mrs. Margaret A.
Walters.
There has been a great deal of sick
ness among the children, most severe
colds
The town is very quiet since the
holidays. The only amusement is
dancing and sometimes the people
dance when it would be better to not
dance, as il would show better respect
to the living and dead.
We are having mild winter weather

Among the things most to be hoped
for is that the people of the United
States will secure closer relations with
people of other countries on this con-
tinent, This can be done by increas-
ing their means of intercourse for
commerce and for travel. The Pan
American Railway, connecting all the
republics, will be one of the best
means of Recurring such result. Any
steps that may be taken toward build
ing the links that are now lacking

Aggressive Integrity in the Public Service, A
High Standard Of Official Responsibility, Postal
Improvement and Arbitration,


Many desirable things are to be
hoped for during the next four years,
and some Of them are certain to be
realized under President Roosevclt's
integrity in the public service and
administration, especially aggressive
high standard of official responsibility.
For the postollice it is to be hoped
that its means of spreading intelli-
gence will continue TO meet the
demands of the public. But above
all things to be desired is the support
by the American people Of the meas
urcs for charging the sphere of ar
bitration, and the continuance Of the
present great influence of the United
States in the peace movements Of the
world.

anu UTutT al nome.
None more iittingly than the brave
may counsel peace. There is no in
congrity in Theodore Roosevelt, the
intrepid Rough Rider, the exponent
OF the strenuous life" preaching the
doctrine OF patience, mutual cOnccs-
sion. respect for law and order And
IN this direction lies an achievement to
be hoped for during the coming four
years Of his administration: vital. too,
for the existence of this Republic, the
grave danger now confronting it is the
growing contempt for law \ good
government gives its citizens tribun-
ais for the determinations Of their
rights, and tOleratcS no resort to vio-
lence for that purpose. international
arbitration is but an extension of TINS
principle, and Mr. Roosevelt, during
ms coming administration, will not
only see TO improve conditions in this
respect within our own borders. but
will make an earnest effort to secure
peace within the family of nations.
The awful waste of life and property
in war is a relic Of barbarism and
reproach TO our civilization. No
brighter page could adom the record
OF any administration than one re-
cording a substantial advance toward
the abolition Of this brutal arbitra-
ment.

TO THE PUBLIC.

This is the time of year when news.
papers make annual advertising con-
tracts, or attempt to make them. The
worth Of advertising depends on the
number OF papers circulated each
issue, and advertising is solicited and
and secured on a certain basis OF cir
! culation.
The Logan Journal solicits advertis-
ing on the basis that it "HAS MORE
SUBSCRIBERS IN NORTHERN
UTAH AND SOUTHERN IDAHO
THAN ALL OTHER PAPERS COM
BINED" and it carries these words
in the most prominent place on its
! front page. The Journal also carries
there the words THE BEST AID
VERTlSING MEDUIMIN NORTH
ERN UTAH AND SOUTHERN
| IDAHO. - this assertion being based,
no doubt, on the strength of its other
statement in regard to circulation.
The REPUBLICAN has i'm the course
of soliciting been asked about this as
SertiOn Of The Journal, and the in
timation has been made that in com
parison with the Journals prolessed
circulation and our own as advertised,
our rates are too high. THE REPUBLI-
CAN cares little or nothing about The
Journals advertising rates or circula-
ton except as report Of the same to
advertisers reflects to our own disad-
vantage. In such case we feel juSti-
tied in presenting the matter fairly
and Squarely.
AS to circulation, The REPUBLICAN
has written various newspapers in
Southern Idaho and Northern Utah
and received replies from some, and
from these replies we have made de-
auctions that leave little doubt of the
accuracy The papers which failed to
respond have been given an approx
mate circulation sufficiently low that
no overmisrepresentation can possibly
be charged. The result is as follows:

in contact with cattle guard and was
thrown to the ground. Regaining his
feet, he caught the fourth car from the
engine and started to climb to the top.
Mr.. Earnest's fireman, Harry Clayton,
saw the engineer fall and his lantern
90 out, and, applying the air, brought
the train to a sudden stop. This un-
expected halt threw the engineer to the
ground second time, in this instance
between the cars. The train stopped
moving just in season to save Mr..
Earnest from being ground to death, but
he was very badly bruised.

Frank Lea Richardson Fatally
Injured in Garden City,.
FRANK A. RICHARDSON'S SON.
DepIorabIe Accident Occurred Sunday;
Skull Fractured and Death Fol-
lowed in SIX Hours.

From Tuesdays Daily.
A fatal accident occurred near Garden
City yesterday that has saddened all
the country around. The victim was
Frank Lea Richardson, the twelve year
old son of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank w. Rich
ardson, who lives two miles from Gar
den City. He was caring for the horses
in his fathers barn at about nine
O'Clock while his father was looking af-
ter the cows. Mr.. Richardson, on en-
crying from the building, noticed that
the doors to the horse stable were not
in their usual position and suspected
that all was not right. He went to the
stable and there found his son lying un-
conscious on the floor, back of the
horses. The boy had been kicked on the
side of the head, and his skull was frac-
tured from the temple all the way
around to a point on the back of the
head.
Mr.. Richardson carried the lad into the
house and summoned Drs. John Will
Jams of Lake Crystal and Kelly off Gar
den City, and all possible was done for
him, but he passed away at three
o'clock without having regained con-
seriousness.
Just how the accident happened will
never be known. The horses stand back
to back, and it is not even known which
one kicked him.
The deceased was a boy of rare quail
ties, and great promise. He always took
hold of the farm work with the same
interest as his father, doing his full
share. Every morning he arose early
with the aid of his alarm clock and at
tended to the horses, having taken to
| himself that particular duty, among
others. He was as faithful as clock
work and as much interested as it was
possible for anyone to be. He was
bright and energetic, made friends cas-
lily, and was well liked by all who knew
him. His death is a severe blow to his
parents, relatives and friends. The flu
neral occurred from the residence at one
o'clock this afternoon, and the inter
ment took place at the Garden City
cemetery. TIL efuneral was largely at.

ROBBERY AT NEW ULM.
Money, Note and Mortgage, Certifi-
Gates Were Taken.


Some time during Wednesday, it is
believed, a person or persons entered the
home of j. G. Lindmeyer, on the eastern
side of the city, about block below the
Chicago & Northwestern coal house, and
carried off a tin box that contained
81 in money, note and mortgage of
5000, and ST 800 in certificates of depos.
it in the banks of New Ulm. Miss LIND
meyer was up in the city most of the
day doing some Christmas shopping, and
the tin box containing the above was
missed when Mr.. Lindmeyer went to
where it was to get some money. A
peculiar fact is that a gold watch of
Miss Lindmeyer had been left on the
bureau in one of the rooms, and that
was not taken.-New Ulm News.
